Telling Rotarians that themSst
progressive, intelligent and success
full business and professional mer
are living outside Of the city and
mute in city affairs, w. D. McCaig
vice president Of the Atlantic Coast
Line, speaking at the regular meet
ing of the club yesterday, said
there has been a progressive de-
terioration in the standard Of cit.
izenship here.
Mr.. McCaig urged the extension
of the city limits in order that these
citizens may take the leadership
for which they are fitted.
Listing other points which make
the move necessary, he said that
the lack Of adequate sewerage ia.
cilities impairs the health of the
community. One section, he re-
vealed, dumps sewerage into Burnt
Mill creek which flows into Smith S
Creek and the Cape Fear, polluting
all three streams.
Extension of the limits is long
overdue, Mr.. McCaig stated, caus-
ing Wilmington to make a bad
showing in census figures. In 1920,
ne said, the figures showed that 49,
372 persons lived here; in 1910 cen
sus figures showed 80, 407, an ap-
parent increase Of only IS inhabit-
ants.
He said that business men seek
ing a community in which to es-
tablish new businesses would con-
clude that Wilmington was a dead
city and would pass over it for a
location.
There is a distinct trend in large
industry towards decentralization
now as it has been learned that
it is a bad policy to create such
centers as Detroit.
In the past six months more in
quiries about the establishment Of
businesses here have been received
at rate never seen in the past
Mr.. McCaig said, and in this con-
nection, he termed Industrial Pro
perties, Inc, the first progressive
move he had seen here in his 81
years as a resident of the city.

DISCHARGE BUTTONS NOW MADE OF METAL

Headquarters, Alaskan Depart ment-The small gold lapel but tons worn by honorably discharg- CT veterans of World War II, and commonly known as discharge buttons," are now being issued to discharges fabricated from gold plated metal instead of gold plated plastic as formerly, the War Department has announced. The change to metal was made because metals from which the buttons are fabricated are now more readily available than early in the war.
 Veterans who have already been issued the plastic button up- on discharge may apply at the nearest Army installation with their discharge papers for a gratu- itous issue of the metal button.

THE ME NUGG EFT
KNOWLEDGE CAN'T BE BOTTLED
Cincinnati Enquirer)

(ClnClnndCl EnQulTer)
 Among certain Americans and British false feeling of security has been engendered by the fact that these two great nations today control the secret of atomic power. With this secret safely locked in national archives they feel other people earth could chal lenge power.
 To an extent that is true. Certainly is true today But what of tomorrow? They answer that by simply stating that we can guard tomorrow by guarding secret.
 That of course is the faacy For history has taught that knowledge is something which cannot be kept as wine in tight-capped bottle. Knowledge has way of becom ng international property One land hold for time but eventually it becomes commonplace in the most distant corners of the earth.
 Consider for moment what mgh have happened had the Chinese been able to hold for their the invention of gunpowder And had Italy been the only nation possessing the power of radio think of the ad Vantaqes she would have maintained during the last two generations. The gas combustion principle the mir acle Of steam power, the greater miracle of cleo trcity-any of them would have made any people the most powerful the face of the globe had knowledge baen tangible stuff subServient to lock and keys
 But that isn't the Americans and British were net the only working the atom We don't know how many other governments at this moment hold blue prints which flower into atomic bombs with days -or month's-further development We can be cer- tan however that such blueprnts in existence We be just certain that atomic power will be familiar in every nation few short years hence guard it's retS as will.

variety and uncomputed tons, put an end to the conflict. They were made in America. Moreover the ships and cars and planes that took them to far-flung points of need were likewise made in America. If any other nation of people had been able to do it, they would have done it before Pearl Harbor. Only America had what it took.
 But what is this rare and magic quality? The answer is easy: it is average greatness. An outstanding genius here and there does not make a competent race. Such men are useful but they are not the people. A young man to whom I handed a dipolma in June, 1943, reported proudly in August that he had been one of 6,500 obscure chemists who helped develop the atomic bomb.
 The Home Front
 Where, but in America, is it possible to find $500 obscure chemists? Chemists of his skill and training are worthy of dis tinction in some countries, but in America they engage in volume production. They work on what amount to assembly lines. And the result brings a war-weary world a breath of relief from starvation and suffering and sorrow.
 The exceptional average great ness" found in America is the rare quality which must not be sacri- feed. If we keep it, this country need never come under the heel of a foreign enemy or a home grown despot. But if we keep it our people must know what it is and how it is obtained. Without further ado, average greatness is a product of the kind of liberty America enjoys.
 Our No. l Resource
 The average American soldier is not a great general but he pos sesses generalship, human trait apart from rank. From youth he has known his right to own any thing he could get honestly, his right to hold any office to which he could be elected, his right to compete. Where competition is not open, learning is lavished on the few and mediocrity paralizes progress.
 I have said this before, but it will bear repeating: The much maligned American system has made this nation great, prosper ous, enlightened and resourceful, able to do big jobs in hurry, get there first with the most and turn defeat into victory. Economic in dependence and personal self re- liance are pillars of education. Americas most valuable resource is resourcefulneSs.

ant thing. Conquering heroes are coming home by shiploads and re- placements are going forth to stand guard over the peace they have bought so bravely at such a fearful cost.
 Success in battle consists of get ting there first with the most. This proverb has been attributed to more than one military hero but it probably originated with that picturesque cavalry general of the Civil War, Nathan B. For rest. At any rate, it is still true. This war was old when America got in it, but each individual con- quest proved the old formula was sound.

Governor Gruening has recom- mended to the War Department that Alaskans get overseas service credits for discharge regardless of where they are stationed in Alas ka. He changed his original pro- test which asked overseas credits only for those Alaskans stationed west of the hundred fifty-fourth degree longitude.
 His request is under considera- ton in Washington. "I want no distinction or discrimination. There are few cases where Alaskans are serving in their home towns. No reason why they shouldn't get the same credits as their companions in service" The governor said he
