LABOR DRAFT:

fed labor draft bill. prohibiting men
between 10 and As from leaving es-
sential work without their local Sc
lective Service boards permission,
or compelling them to accept jobs
designated by such boards.

met by voluntary recruiting.

Mandalay Retaken

Somebody now insists that Kipling was as
cockeyed as herring in Potomac net about
the dawn coming up like thunder out Of China
cross the bay, and ever we, the most credu-
lous of souls, doubt that flying fishes play
anywhere, but the Associated Press declares
that the Japanese have been driven out OF
Mandalay and we can't doubt that
Nor can we doubt that the taking Of Man.
dalay is an important step in the recapture of
Burma which, itself, will be quite factor in
the defeat Of Japanese on the mainland of
Asia. Mandalay is somewhat more than three
hundred miles north Of Rangoon, the southern
terminus of the old Burma road, which in the
days of appeasement the British closed at the
request Of the Japanese and never got back
into working order, even when China needed
its use most.
There may be some question whether the
old Burma road will ever play as vital part
in Asiatic transport as it did when the Japa-
nese were throttling China while China S
friends were patting her on the back and sell
ING scrap iron and petroleum to Japan, es-
pecially since the Hump has been conquered
and the Ledo road opened, but possibly it could
se've as a supplementary trafficway for sup
plies and equipment when the main battle of
the Orient opens and with Mandalay in hand it
might not be such job to kick the Japanese
off its northern stretches so that the British
could utilize the Bay OF Bengal as a supply
route, unloading at some handy port and rush
ing what China needs north through Yunnan
province into Chungking.
Anyway, Mandalay is retaken after nearly
three years of Japanese occupation, and while
1t was forces under Admiral Lord Louis Mount.
| batten who turned the trick, after the Japanese
had moved out under cover of darkness, it
was Tennessee and a Missouri air COM

Far East an American war, to be won by
Americans.

Junior College Bill Passes

Senate passage OF the Junior College bill
will bring comfort to friends OF education in
New Hanover county. True, the bill merely
may decide at the polls whether they want
such college and are willing to levy tax
not to exceed cents per 500 valuation te
ward its support if tuition revenues are In
sufficient for that purpose, but it is lncon-
csivable that an up-and-coming population
with peace era ahead, with its opportunity
for advancement, should stand in the way OF
an educational project through which the COM
Inunity and the entire southeastern section OF
the state may be materially benefited.
Now that the measure has been successfully
guided through the legislature it may be re-
vealed that the educational forces here hope
to establish a junior college which will take
care of adult no less than adolescent needs.
It is their idea that night classes be conducted
for mature persons for training in special apti-
tudes, that those taking the courses may be
fitted for employment requiring especial skill.
This could apply to the arts and sciences no
less than trades and handicrafts
The legislature has paved the way for New
Hanover county to move forward in educa-
ton. It but remains for the people to carry
on from where the legislature completed its
good work.

100 Per Cent Short

At the request Of the Office Of Price Ad
ministrat;on the American Meat Institute has
conducted a countrywide survey and report
ed that conditions bordering on famine exist
in many areas.
This was not hit-or-naiss survey. The 1nstl'
tute gathered its information by contracting
713 meat packing companies.
It found that for the first time since meat
rationing was instituted many meat items are
.eported for the country as whole "as being
100 per cent in short supply in relation to the
needs of the trade;' that most beef and pork
cuts reported over 81 per cent in short sup
ply;' that 'the only exceptions to the ex-
IRENE shortage are some sausage and variety
meats, but even these are shorter than month
ago"
TIL Institute ascribes these reasons for the
situation:
1. The uncontrolled, extensive and
growing black market in all kinds OF meat.
2. Diversion Of large quantities OF meat
from normal, legitimate commercial chan
nels Of trade, from which supplies Tor war
purposes must be obtained.
3. Regulations which have the effect OF
discouraging cattle feeders from bringing
more young range animals to the maturity
and weight of finished beef.
4. Government price controls which have
resulted in wholesale ceiling prices for
meat, especially beef and pork, not being
sufficient, in the case Of legitimate opera
tors, to reflect the prices paid currently
for live stock.
As result concludes the Institutes report
to the OPA, many neat.packing companies
have been forced to operate for an extended
period with heavy losses. Unless remedial
steps Immediately are taken to correct gross
inequities in the price situation, meat supplies
in many parts OF the country, as well as for
vital war uses, and the ability Of the industry
to handle any later increase in livestock sup
plies will be further affected
obviously, no company can continue to op-
crate for long under the strangling losses
which now are being imposed on the industry.
This situation repeatedly has been brought to
the attention Of Government agencies con-
cerned, but necessary correctiv steps have
not been taken.''

The destroyer had Jimmy aboard

instead sent a swimmer out after
him. with a line tied around his
waist.
He got to Jimmy just in time.
Jimmy passed out in his arms.
With no lifebelt, he had taken too
much saltwater aboard.
In the meantime the destroyer
had let down a metal stretcher,
and another swimmer was there tc
help get Jimmy into it. 1t took a
while for them to get him on, for
he was dead weight, and the
stretcher kept going up and down

In Own Backyard

At last it has happened. The Japanese fleet
has been under attack in its home waters,
suffering heavy damage without Gripping an
American ship SO seriously that it could not
sail away under its own power.
Admiral Nimitz' communique leaves much
to be desired Either for security reasons or
because the full picture cannot yet be painted
details of the engagement are lacking, but one
fact is outstanding: American carriers sought
out the japanese fleet in hiding, attacked it.,
and left it weaker by seventeen ships damaged
and ATS planes destroyed.
1t is not shown that there has been any con-
tact between surface craft It was blow at
the enemy Navy struck from the air.
The damaged ships are listed as one or two
battleships; two or three aircraft carriers;
two light aircraft carriers; two escort car
riers; one heavy cruiser; one light cruiser;
four destroyers; one submarine; one destroy
or escort and seven freighters. In addition six
small freighters were sunk.
The location of the attack is not revealed
but the Associated Press says likely targets
were Sasebo, one of the four great naval bases
Of japan, and Nagasak where there are ax
tensiye facilities for anchorage.
This is carrying the battle straight to the
enemy. II the Japanese continue to refuse te
come out and fight it will be apparent that
