Then comes the desk where complaints of physical dis abilities are registered. Passing that, you come to the dog tag ma chine, where a CT with a sturdy and rapid touch can knock out a new set of identification tags as fast as you can spell your name. The only officer you encounter IS the dental officer. All other work is done by GIs. Execution of the entire processing procedure is ac- complished by enlisted men, with the aid of efficient Negro WACs, many of whom work far into the night.
 Little new training given at the ORD about all you do here is fill in the missing musts on your train ing record. If you haven't fired the M3 submachine gun, you're taken to the range, and that matter is taken care of in 25 rounds. The same is true of the carbine, pistol, and any work that is needed in camoufage, chemical warfare, map reading or other tactical subjects. But if you have accomplished all these and have been credited with them on your service record and Form 20, you don't have to repeat them.

 S/Sgt. Laura Beasley, formerly of Bradley Field, was among the victims of the "Shangri-La" plane crash which occurred last May thirteenth in New Guinea, 150 miles from Hollandia. :.
 Sergeant Beasley, who entered the WAC in August, 1942, arrived at Bradley from Dow Field, Maine, during November, 1943. Before leaving here for overseas service in September, 1914, she had served at the Post Engineers Office and with Ordnance.
 According to the Associated Press account of the crash, Ser geant Beasley was one of twenty three passengers of CAY who had set out that day to see from the air the wild beauty of Neatherland New Guinea. At 1900 that after noon the plane crashed in flames halfway up a 13,0OO foot mountain that formed part of an area known

According to a recent announce ment by the War Department, the following changes have been made in reference to parenthood credit for the WAC. These changes will not be made in reports already for warded but will be corrected on the individual cards of WAC per sonnel.
 Wacs who enlisted prior to IA October, 1942 will receive parent hood credit for children under eighteen. If enlisted on or after that date, credit will be given for children fourteen to eighteen only. Credit will not be given women who enlisted on or after IA October, 1942, for children under fourteen at enlisted date.

as the Valley of Shangri-La."
 Three survivors crawled from the wreckage, an Officer, Wac and an enlisted man, all injured. Since the area is composed of dense jungle never before visited by white men and inhabited only by giant six foot natives, the Far East Air Force was presented with the difficult task of rescuing the survivors. Food, medical supplies, walkie-talkie and two Filipino medical technicians were dropped to the survivors. On May twentieth, a Captain and eight Filipino para chute troops were dropped into the Valley about ten miles from the wreck to begin work on landing strip. They reached the survivors five days later and by June first had them back in the valley camp after tough trip through in credibly wild country.

The first thing to do when you find yourself on an overseas ship ment headed for the Army Air Forces Replacement Depot at Kearns is to discount every la trineogram. The deal at Kearns, as Army deals go, is good one. You won't find luxury but you will find many things that please you.
 Probably the two outstanding points about Kearns are efficiency and speed. You get your first taste of these two attributes at the railroad station in Salt Lake City (about IA miles from camp), where you are met by an officer with a fleet of CT trucks. No matter what time of day or night you check into Kearns you are started on the we'll oiled processing routine. Your rec ords are checked immediately, as signed to an outfit, a barrack ard draw bedding. It's still chilly enough up here at night and early morning for two blankets and a comforter.
 Your overseas processing really starts the next morning, when a noncom rouses you at the long forgotten Army hour of 5:3O am. Marched to breakfast at am. you fall in for first roll call of the day at O7OO. There are plenty of roll calls during the course of a Kearns day.
 First stop on the processing tour is at one of the camp theaters, where you are greeted by chaplains of three faiths. It is the first of many talks, including one by a camp intelligence officer who makes clear the pertinent matter in good old AR 380-5. After lunch there are more lectures and movies, most of the latter being familiar to everybody. The first week of your processing consists chiefly of movie talks, and a records check to as-

CONsCRIPTION, STRIKES

(San Diego Union)
Representative Colmer of Mississippi
thinks that if national conscription of
labor for war industry Is necessary, some
thing ought to be done about the loss OF
manpower through strikes. He also would
do something about voluntary absentees
in industry. Mr.. Colmer offers bill
which would turn over strikers or alb
sentees to the draft boards, to be assigned
either to military service or the man.
power industry pool.
1t may appear Bit strange to take
men off farms and conscript other men
physically ineligible for military service
to help relieve the shortage of military
production, while countless thousands of
man-hours are lost through strikes and
absenteeism. We have seen many exam
Piles in the past two years where strikes
of relatively few individuals kept thous
ands of workers idle for days and weeks.
One trouble with any legislation along
the lines proposed by the Mississippi rep
resentative is that it bumps into the con-
stitutional inhibition against "involun-
tary servitude." 1t is something of con-
tradiction that men should be drafted for
fighting and not be drafted for working
to arm and equip fighters. But congress
thus far has not ventured to test the
involuntary servitude' provision.
Labor leaders naturally would resist
any measure dealing with strikers as pro-
vided by the Colmer bill. They would
cite supreme court decisions affirming
the right to strickland the present court
could be expected to sustain that posi-
ton.
The pronouncement of Mobilization
Director Byrnes and the action of selec-
tive service boards already are bringing
a substantial number of workers into war
industry By the time congress gets
through fighting out the issues involved
in making new laws, the demands may
be pretty we'll fulfilled.

Intense Hunt
For Vacant Rooms

Solution of the housing shortage
in Elcentro has been approached on
three fronts when the USO housing
committee started program mapped
out at conference at the Ell Centro
USO club Friday night.
First task will be to get lists of
available rooms for use of service
men and their families. Second will
be to get some sort of housekeeping
accommodations in which the serv-
ice families may live. The third
task will be tC assist other agencies
in getting new federal housing of
more or less permanency.
Astourded at the countless rami-
fica,ions, the many difficulties. and
the complicated work ahead of
them, the committee members
shouldered the problem and started
out tc do its best.
Charles Bramkamp, president,
and w. G. Outlook, secretary, of the
Ell C?ntro Chamber of Commerce,
members of the committee, explain
ed how the chamber committees are
working with federal and military
authorities to get housing for Serv-

I'VE get an average of SO calls a
day for rooms for servicemen and
their families" Mrs. Rita Noah,

"We spend hours trying to get resi-
dents of Ell Centro and Holtville to
let servicemen and their families
stay in their hcmes. 1t takes more
time than we can spare. We want

The committee will meet at an

HULSE SOLDIER LOAN
BILL IS SOUND MOVE

State Senator Ben Hulse, following his
announced intention, has introduced a
measure in the legislative session which
calls for $130,000,000 bond issue to
assist war two veterans. Senator Huise
advocated this plan during the Novem-
Der election campaign in connection with
his support of the already enacted $780,
100000 issue which was up for voters
approval at the November election.
The Hulse bill calls for the $50 mil
lions ito finance veteran purchases of
farms, homes and small businesses"
L is contended, and logically so, by the
senator and others who are backing the
measure that the 80 million already
authorized is far from sufficient and in
support of this feeling it is pointed out
tha. the state provided SS0,000,000 for
similar purposes in 1918 when less than
fourth as many men were under arms
The 1918 bond issue went far to give
the prompt and necessary assistance to
the returning veterans and in addition
proved to be a good business deal for the
state both as an investment and as a
means of increasing the productivity of
the state That issue, as the 80 millions
and the now proposed $50 millions, will
carry, had a low rate of interest. 1t was
calculated that the rate in the 1918 issue
would meet cost of a demonstration and
make up for any delinquencies. It turned
out that when the books We're closed, a
sizeable profit had accrued to the state
There was no intention at that time to
show an actual interest profit, nor is
there any thought of profit in the pro-
posed 130 million issue.
If the 1918 gesture accomplished all
and more than was intended or held pos
sible, there is no doubt the same will
happen now in raising the amount to
where it will serve the returning veterans
of war two as adequately and generously
as in 1918.
Other bills have been introduced bear
ing on the maximum amount of loans
under the program, one fixing the $15,-
900 instead of $500 as the high limit and
another raising the maximum to $4,000.
Still another measure calls for the veter-
ans welfare board 30 be given the auth
ority to subdivide farm lands which may
be made available by the federal govern
ment for homesteading.
The legislature should not leave un-
done any reasonable plan for assistance
of veterans and in this there should be
complete cooperation from the public.
It is the one big job aahead for the legis
lative session.
good start has been made in the
HulSe bill.

Over Nagoya. 4
Pilots Report
By E. G. VALENS
1ited Press Staff Correspondent


A B-2o BASE, SAIPAN, Jan. Is.
(ELT)-(Via Navy Radio. CUP)-
B-29 pilots, returning from a sue
cessful flight yesterday over the
principal Japanese aircraft center
of Nagoya, reported today that they
encountered heavy fighter oppo-
sition on the part Of enemy pilots
who really know how TO fly"
Staging a giant air battle against
the fighters, the Superforts de-
stroyed at least 13 Japanese planes,
probably destroyed 10 and dam
aged 10.
Captain j. r. Callihan, Nacomb,
Illinois, commander of one of the
mammoth planes, said that about
20 Japs came at us. They went
through, above and below us.
Those pilots sure are not kids.
They know how to fly"
Second Lieutenant H. F. McCul-
lough, bombardier, Dallas, Texas,
shot down two Japs and probably
got another. Then he ran out of
ammunition.
But Harmon (F. O. Nelson Har-
mon, Easton, Pennsylvania, a bonn
bardier in another plane) exploded
three or four JapS right in our face
and saved our necks,' Mccullough
said. +.f
Flying weather was reported good
but with haze of the target Only
one early element of Superforts

WAR SOUVENIRS ADD
TO CASUALTY LISTS

Almost daily dispatches tell of persons
being injured seriously or killed in ham
ding some sort of souvenir sent or
brought home by service men. For the
most part the deadly koepsakes are types
of bombs or grenades or shells. Not
few casualties are caused by firearms.
The value of the souvenir is greater
according to the popularity of the object.
The Germans especially are using weap-
ons and explosives of new designs and it
is natural for a Yank to select one of
these. Because of this added value the
memento is all the more dangerous. In
a number of instances the service man
himself has been injured or killed.
Even in war the weapon that isn't
ioaded'' is the most dangerous and it
seems a shame that the enemy should
be able to- add other victims and that
their killer weapons should bring death
and sorrow and suffering in this man
ner.
