MIDWAY ISLAND, June 10
(P)-A firm American determi-
nation to wreck Japan's supply
lines and drive its ships from
from the Pacific turned these
sand dunes in mid-ocean into
one of the nations most import
ant submarine bases.
Now that the task has large
ly been accomplished, the Navy
department has permitted dis
closure of Midway's part in the
battle for the Pacific.
Actually Midway is composed
of two tiny islands, sand and
eastern, separated by about a
mile of jade green reef water
One of these islands has become
an immense machine shop and
rest center for submarines and
their crews. The other houses

and Capt. Jayne worked to-
gether. Jayne, modest and gen
ial, says little about his part in
the project, but his hand in a
near-miracle of construction is
very evident.
First, Midway was to be only
a repair static. 1t was after the
battle of Midway victory in
June, 1912 that the Navy began
to see the vast potentialities of
employment of the island as
submarine base to both repair
and refit undersea craft plying
Japanese waters.

Government officials have
given the following summary of
the situation:
The amount of commercially
canned vegetables available for
civilian consumption will be
considerably less in 1915; for
example, there will be approx
matciy "a 10 40 per cent less

amounted to 38 pounds per cap
tia IN 1913; the supply Will be
down TO 28 pounds this year.
The supply of canned toms-
toes now on hand is about one
half that Of year ago.
Seed dealers said that vege-
table seed sales to Victory Gar
deners were IS 10 81 per cent
below last year, and 10 CONNER
clal growers about 81 10 33 per
cent less.
Some commercial growers
have reduced their vegetable
acreage as much as 25 per cent

ing hand labor.
All growth in the corn belt
region has been retarded by
unavoidable weather.
Against this is the increased
demand for food on the part OF
the military forces and the CT
william population and to avoid
starvation in the countries OF
Europe ravaged by war.
The situation is serious.

solution to the problem is the

Because if man kicked about the initial cost of getting married a girl could figure out for herself that he would kick every time she bought 8 new hat, a piece of fur niture for the living room, or got the works at a beauty salon.
 And think what such a husband would say of the initial cost of a baby, and the subsequent upkeep.
 On the other hand 1t might be a god idea for man to know at the start that marriage is an expensive proposition, and that no matter how much marriage license costs, that is only the beginning.
 If a marriage license cost even as much as a car license a lot of stingy men might never get to the altar which would be fine break for women.
 And those who didn't bat an eye at the cost of license to wed Susie would probably not protest too much at her upkeep.
 The only mistake the OPA in Pittsburgh made was in not get ting the prospective bridegroom's name and getting in touch with his bride-to-be to report: Your fiance thinks $5.50 is too much for a marriage license. Do you also want to protest it?"
 That bit of OPA interference in the affairs of others night have saved a girl from marrying a tiRhtWad.
