DEATH MARCH SURVIVOR
 BACK WITH US. TROOPS
By SPENCER DAVIS

US. BOMBER WING Headquar- ters, North Luzon-Haggard, foot sore and hungry for American chow, the first survivor of the Ba- taan death march" to join his fel- low Americans after hiding from the Japs was resting today under the protection of conquering Yan- kee troops.
 After hiding in the bush and liv- ing on rice for nearly three years, Corporal Charles Wade of Lewis ton, Idaho, an army air corps me chanic, passed through the Ameri- can lines at an undisclOsed point and was brought here by plane.
 Its too good to be true," Wade declared as he stamped his feet in borrowed shoes on the steel mat ting of the airstrip on which he had landed.
 His shoes had bad stone bruise which had made him limp. He was chalky faced from malnutritiol and he looked 15 years older than his 25 years But he was happy and hungry.
 Wade said he and other prisoners who surrendered to the Japs April g, 1922, had been mistreated and made to march 85 miles north to q prison camp.
 "They laughed and ieered us some. Then they bashed Us on the heads with poles as they drove by in trucks. They reminded me that they were the underdogs who fin ally got the upper hand But they didn't know how to act. The third day after the surrender was the worst of all We were forced to march 132 steps minute while the sun was beating down on us.
 'The sweat rolled down until our clothes were soaking wet. Again we had no food and water"
 Japanese officers, who enjoyed talking English, told Wade: "The Americans have good autos good machines but no fighting spirit. They have too many girls and too much parties"

Graduated Tax on Fish Traps; Ter. Income Tax

sIIRscRIPTT0N -RATEs
WHAT TO WEAR

What the well-dressed man will wear may be briefly summed up from one angle. He will wear clothes that cost not quite as much as those of his Womenfolk but not so far away Estimates by the War Productions Boards experts on civilian requirements show that in the first three months of the year just ended American women spent for street dresses something over S28O,OO0,000 Men spent for wool suits $168,0OO,O0O and for shirts $IO8.OOO,000. The two items ot masculine wear, it will be seen, are only a few million dollars short of the expenditures on womens street dresses.
 To be sure, there are other con- alterations. Men wear the same clothes in the street and in the house, generally speaking. But to the Women's bill tor street dresses we must add about % percent tor house dresses, to the snug amount of 65,00O,00O. And there is the very important problem of access sories. From faithful reading ot the fashion notes and advertise ments, We gather that the thing which really makes a well-dressed woman is her shoes, or her hats, or her gloves, depending on what the advertiser is anxious to sell at that particular moment.
 Nevertheless, with all such al- Iowances and deductions it would still be true that the American man is far from the selt-effaeing creature of tradition who goes about in old clothes to keep his wife in finery. It will be news to most of Us that the American ma'e, from the figures just quoted, spends two dollars on his shirts for every three dollars on his suits, the gtddy thing.-New York Times.

war cannot be erased overnight. The re-

gradually-step by step.
So it is with the railroads /. with Union
Pacific. Millions of men and women in
service have yet to be returned to their
homes. And. unfortunately, there will be
others whose destination will be a hospital
or rehabilitation center. Because Union
Pacific is a transcontinental railroad, nit
