National Army Arts Contest =: Information

Although the deadline for en- tries in the Army Arts Contest has been announced as March thirty first, those intending to enter paint ings, photos, or any other media, should contact the Personnel Af- fairs Office, Ext. 205, not later than Monday, 12 March 1945.
 Two other changes regarding the contest which were recently announced are: first, that all en- tries must have been accomplished since the artist entered the service and, second, that the Bradley Field entries will be placed on exhibit at the Springfield Museum of Fine Arts rather than at the Base Li- brary as published last week. The art work of Westover Field and other nearby army installations will also be exhibited at the Mu- scum during the early part of April.
 Rules for the contest and medias included follow:

 There won't be much lag, either, while industry is recon-verting to time production, he declared. The same survey, he said, "indi- cates that 95 percent of all indus try can complete reconversion with in eight weeks after the govern ment gives it the green light and 76 percent of these firms will be in full production within that period.
 "If the rest of our economy does as well," he added, "it is quite like ly that this country will have maxi mum employment in no uncertain terms"
 Industry is giving special atten- tion, MT. Mosher asserted, to the problem of placing the handi- capped man. It has learned, he de- clared, that mo disabled, or handi- capped man is handicapped if he is properly placed on the right job."
 And manufacturing employers, he declared, aren't going to be afraid of the label "neuro-psychi- atric," tackled on to those men whose nervous equipment wasn't quite up to the demands of Army discipline or combat strains.
 Industry can and will absorb most of them," he says fatly. "Re- cent surveys by competent medical men experienced in industrial prob lems reveal that there are just as many, if not more NPs already working in industry than will re- turn from the ranks. Their foibles simply stay hidden because civilian life offers more chance for com pensation than barracks and fox holes."
 Industry" he concludes, "is ready for the returning serviceman -selfshly so. War took the best this nation had to offer, the best of our youth. Industry wants it back, and so does every other seg- ment of this economy"

 The Civil Aeronautics Adminis- tration believes that more than 90fo of postwar opportunities in jobs related to aviation will come within the field of Industrial Fly ing. That includes flight instruc- tion, crop dusting, hunting of ami nal pests, forestry, power com munication and oil line inspection, aerial photography, fishing indus try, charter flying and light weight air freight.
 Some of the possibilities in each of these categories are listed as follows by the CAA:
 Flight InstructiOn:-"A distinct possibility of steady employment in moderately active market. The Civilian Pilot Training Program may be partially revived through a future appropriation by Congress, which has legalized the extension of the program for two years. As private planes become easier to fly, the Flight Instructor will probably change into a salesman-instructor who will teach each purchaser as part of the sales contract"
 Crop Dusting :-"Considerable in- crease is expected in crop dusting and spraying of insecticides and larvacides; in destruction of in- sects such as grasshoppers, fruit fly, and other destroyers, through use of highly effective new poisons developed during the war. Already burned-over rangelands have been reseeded from the air where plant ing on the surface would have been impossible or too costly. Other crops, especially grains, will prob ably be planted by air just as rice is now"
 Hunting of Animal Pests:-"This started as a sport, but has de- veloped into a profitable enterprise. Counties and sale of skins of coyotes, wolves, etc., pay we'll"

Vaudeville at Base Theatre "Wednesday

An All-Star USO Camp Show will be presented at the Base Thea ter on Wednesday evening, March seventh, at 1900, proceeding the regular theater showing of Moth ing but Trouble" with Laurel and Hardy.
 Featured in the show is James Richards, comedian and mimic, who also serves as master of cere- monies. Richards has appeared in many major night clubs through out the country and is famous for his impressions of Groucho Marx and Jimmy Durante.
 Dick Carson, former service man who played with army bands, was once a dancer but now spe- cializes in piano numbers that have his listeners tapping their feet. Mimi Carr, acrobatic dancer, is we'll known throughout Canada for her twists and turns while rhythm singer Mickey Arris has pleased audiences in many New England night spots, including the Hartford Club. Harold Freeman, accordionist, has squeeze-boxed at major Broad way theaters like the Capitol, Strand and State. He has toured the RKO and Loew's circuits, and has played in Germany, France and Canada.
 Although the stage show is free, those intending to remain and see the movie will be charged the regular fifteen cent toll.

Your Job Will Be Waiting
 NAM. Tells Servicemen

No veteran who left job in the manufacturing industry need wor- ry about stepping back into it upon his return, if he wants it.
 That is the pledge made to Americas fighting men by Ira Mosher, president of the National Association of Manufacturers.
 Unemployment of the veteran at his old job is "the minimum guar antee under the Selective Service Act and the so-called GI Bill of Rights" MT. Mosher said.
 But" he added, "there isn't a manufacturer among the 12,OO0 members of the NAM or the 10000 employers affiliated with this or ganization through the National h. dustrial Council who wouldn't con- sider the mere letter of the law personal, scarlet brand if that were all industry had to offer"
 Mir. Mosher declared that the manufacturing industry is assum- ing responsibility for some 3,0O0,- 0OO jobs for returning servicemen when the war ends, as "mini- num-" According to Bureau of Labor Statistics, manufacturing normally employs about 25 per cent of the total national labor force.

 Power Communication and Oil Line Inspection: Low level flying to spot and report breaks, leaks and other trouble, long before the ground inspector can find them. This is being carried on now to a small extent, successfully. The war has produced many more miles of oil and gas pipeline, and power lines"
 Aerial Photography "A steady increase of good pre-war business is expected, because of better equip ment, more experience, etc. Photo graphing of private estates, real estate developments, golf courses, mapping for survey, crop planning, soil conservation, flood control, re- storation programs, map making, etc., are logical extensions. Spot ting of cattle, other animals on range, and census counting of farms and game animals can be done by photography"

which he was chief, arrived at that island to finish up the remaining Japs. They then saw action at Munda and were in the first wave to strike the beach at Vella La Vella, where they faced fourteen days and nights of constant straf- ing and bombing. During those fourteen days, says Sgt. Blood, they managed to get but little sleep Git rained constantly and often went many hours without food. The Sergeant is the only sur vivor of his radio unit which was made up of sixty men.
 MARRIED RECENTLY
 The Sergeant arrived at Brad ley about three weeks ago with his wife, whom he wed last Septem- Der. AS far as he's concerned, Bradley Field is paradise compared to the hot, damp tropics and he also likes it's nearness to his home town of Rutland, Vermont. At pres ent, his postwar plans are hazy and he's not so sure yet whether or not he wants to leave the serv- ice after the Japs and Germans have met their last match. "How- ever," says he, "my wife will prob ably have something to say about that"

At ceremonies held at the Base gym last Saturday during which the families of thirty-two Connecti- cut airmen received medals earned by their sons and husbands, Sgt. Elwin G. Blood, of this Base, was presented with the Expert Infan- tryman's Combat Badge. Although the badge awarded Sgt. Blood does not represent any one particular act of bravery or daring, it does represent the fact that the Ser geant has served his country valiantly as an infantryman; an all-around expert fighting soldier.
 Sgt. Blood is on duty with the Synthetic Training Department of the Ground Training School. For twelve years prior to entering the Air Corps last year, the Sergeant served with various army units and has had nine years of service out side the continental limits of the United States.

Old Colds, Chesterfields and
Pail Malls. Meanwhile the
smaller manufacturers, who had
a lot of excess capacity unused
when the shortage developed,
have stepped up production and
virtually all of their increased
output Is kept at home for civil
ians.
So the WAS overall figure
OF 81 per cent as many civilian
cigarets this year as last includes
tho unknown brands - the
brands you either leave on the
dealers counter or buy occas-
ionally rather than 60 smoke
less.
But Of the brands you want,
the popular brands, there still
are supposed to be seven packs,
for you, for every carton you
used last year.
Are you getting them? If you
are, don't tell me. IN miserable

on a cigaret diet yet.
One would imagine, there
fore, that it, should be a simple
matter to walk into almost any
store and get at least one pack
a day Of Luckies, Old Colds.
C-.mels, Chesterfields or Pail

But If you smoke, or even II
you try to keep a small assort-
ment on hand to suit the vary
ing tastes of your guests. you
don't have to be told that you
can't buy nine packs of Luckies
- or Camels or Old Colds or
Chesterfields-this year for ev.
cry carton you bought in 1913.
One Of the biggest manufac-
turers is giving distributors sew
en- packs this year for every
carton the distributor handled
in 1943. That is well under the
nine packs that VIA figures
would suggest, but there is an
explanation.
OVERSEAS FIGURES ARE
SECRET
Government figures on ciga-
rets sent overseas to our fight
ing men are a closely guarded
secret. Manufacturer figures on
production, sales and govern
ment purchases are equally Sc
cret. But il is understood that
the Army, the Navy and the Red
Cross ship the different brands
overseas in the same proportion
that the brands were smoked at
home.
This means that almost all the
service mems cigarets are COM
ing out of our Luckies, Camels,

BY this time, unless you are
as completely disinterested as
Vice-President Harry Truman,
who doesn't smoke-you must
have read tens Of thousands OF
words about the cigaret short
age. You know all about it,
don't you?
That's fine, because after cam
wasting just about everybody
who ought to know why tobac-
conists' cigaret bins r empty.
I'm in a daze, a other, and
something of a dudgeon.
The War Foods Administra-
ton says that more cigarets are
being manufactured this year
than ever before-half again as
many as in 194l and 20 billion
cigarets more than last year.
Lend-lease and export trade
are relatively negligible. They
account for less than n pack
for each of us for the entire
year. Our soldiers, sailors, ma
rines and other uniformed men
overseas are getting almost
three and a half billion packs
this year. which is equivalent
to about 26 packs for each
American.
Nevertheless, after this, the
VIA says that more cigarets
will be available for civilian
Americans this year than ever
before except in 1943, and more
than nine-tenths a. many as in
that record-smoking year.
~ PACKS PER IN 1941
In l94l an average Of II

for every American. We got
along fine. We could step into

and buy all we wanted.

are correct, the available packs
