Because the general channels of information have failed to provide the public with an adequate pie ture of the shocking conditions un- der which coal diggers work and live" he said, there is altogether too little support from the public at large for the miners reasonable Objectives in respect to health pro- lection.
 ''The entire blame for the coal conflict is placed upon the United Mine Workers and their leader, John L. Lewis, with little thought being given to the fact that the only way the miners have ever gained any improvements at all has been through laying down their picks and compelling the mine operators to bargain with them.
 Absentee mine owners and their bankers have been shrugging their shoulders too long over the de- plorable conditions that obtain in the mine towns. They have closed their eyes to the sub-standard

Train Men for
Operating bat"

A radar-guided glider bomb
which was used successfully in
combat during the war will be-
come an important. permanent
part of the peacetime navy.
Having perfected the BAT" as
a full Pledged service weapon,
the navy has launched a pro-
gram to train fleet aircraft
personnel the technical and
operational use of the weapon.
The Bat was operated entire
ly by specially trained bureau
of ordnance teams in the war,
and it's use is being taught to
pilots and aircrewmen at the
naval aviation ordnance test
station, Chincoteague, Va. Two
privateer patrol bomber squad
rons are being organized for
service use of the missile.
Used against Japanese COM
Blatant and merchant shipping
during the last year of World
War II, the Bat proved to be
the first successful fully auto
matte guided missile.
~ W-dIlSlC- SC1A-
controlled airborne missile, the
Bat is capable of carrying a
l,OOO-pound bomb load, and has
a range of 10 miles. The bomb
is mounted in a glider type air
frame and is equipped with a
gyroscopic tabilizing unit and a
serve system. The airframe was
a radar transmitter and re-
ceiver to provide directional
correction. The serve system
moves the control surfaces of
the air stabiliZer.
Suspended under a wing or
below the fuselage of an air
plane, the Bat is about II feet
long and has a 10-foot wing
span. Its speed is comparable to
that of high-speed aircraft,
and its range is great enough
to allow the mother plane to
operate we'll out of the enemy's
longest range antiaircraft fire.
An important feature is that
of its homing powers. After it
is released from the navy's
P%rivateer bomber, it becomes
completely automatic. Any eva
sive maneuverS of the target
ship are followed promptly by
the weapon, which is directed
by its radar transmitter and
receiver.

Last spring the National As
ISOLATION of Manufacturers was
warning that continuation OF
OPA would intensity reconver-
sion problems.
But the administration and
Congress, responding to appeals
of politicians, labor union lead
ers, left-wingers and many sim
cere individuals and Organlza-
tions, decided that it should be
continued.
The NAM forecast, based on
the knowledge and experience
of the men who make Amer
ica's goods, proved true.
And now political panic has
seized administration officials
and politicians who forced con-
tinuation of OPA until June 80,
1947.
Fear of i'll effects of their
misguided efforts has gripped
some labor leaders, who are
now willing to scuttle the price
control agency.
The following results - in
themselves news of Importance
- appear likely to grow from
the situation:
|. The hope of radicals of OBJ
tanning a further continuation
of OPA next winter has been
virtually destroyed.
2. A real possibility exists
that a frightened adminiStra-
ton and outraged public opin-
ion will force an end to OPA
before its expiration date next
June 80.

Gently returned after spending sew
eral weeks in California, made an
interesting comparison of that state
and Mississippi and in each instance
told why he liked Mississippi.
He told about the current Cali
fornia boom and the materialistic
atmosphere which seemed to abound
everywhere commenting particularly
on the attitude toward the church
and ministers there. He pointed out
that California is a fertile ground
for all of the ''isms" and said he
was convinced that while beautiful
California might be Gods country
that he personally was convinced
that Gods people are largely in the
South.
The Rev. Valentine stated that
America has been blessed above
every nation in the world and that
we should be thankful to God for
our blessings. He pointed out the
present trend of the world toward
God and said he was convinced that
God was the forgotten man and
the Bible the forgotten book. We
cannot go on forgetting God as a
nation and survive, the speaker said,
for "they only stand who fall upon
their knees" His address was greatly
enjoyed.

Farmers Should Exereis'
Care In Cutting Timber
Low Quality Trees
Should Be Disposed
Of immediately

Farmers often slaughter their tim
e when prices r relatively high
because they do not know the rate
at which value of the timber in
creases, says George l.. Evans, as
sistant county agent.
For instance, at $40 per thousand
board feet, a 10-inch tree is worth
only 20 cents as a sawlog. If the tree
were cult, it would take 30 years to
replace it.
II this 10-inch tree is allowed to
grow 6 years and reach IL inches,
its value is So cents, nearly triple
the 10-inch value. In II years it will
reach IA inches and be worth $1.08,
or better than five times its value
at 10 inches.
BY allowing this tree to stand fol-
6, IL or more years, you can make
about 36 per cent interest annually
on your investment.
If the price should not remain al
$40, but dropped to So a thousand
board feet, the 6 year old tree woulc
be worth 46 cents, or more thar
twice its 10-inch value. II prices fall
back to $4 a thousand as they did
in 1926, the tree would still be
worth a little more in 6 years thar
1t is now and in IL years, 1t would
double its present value.
High prices for relatively poor
quality products make this the time
to dispose Of low quality trees. Cut
the limby, knotty, crooked trees and
cut out the diseased ones. Save the
young, thrifty trees as a bank &C
count drawing 20 to IS per cent in
terest, which car be made into {
steady annual income.
