destruction of thousands of gal
Ions of nic-contaminated soy

On Wars
What do soldiers die for? I
don't know. and I sometimes Won
der if they know.
This happened during the war.
1 got into a conversation with a
soldier on a train. He was report
ing back from his last leave. He
was going overseas and I could
see that he was scared. I didn't
blame him.
He was with some other soldiers
They were all a little tight. They
talked noisily about how they had
spent the last leave, and they were
singing The Yanks Are Coming. Z"
The soldier I talked with became
very intimate under the mellow
ing influence of the alchohol. He
said he didn't know what he was
fighting for. l wondered if. he
hadn't read the newspapers. They
were full of talk about the fight
Tor freedom and democracy
A long time after that 1 learned
by accident that the soldier I had
talked with on the train was kill
ed in action.

During the first world war, the
Allies said it was war to end all
wars; it was a war to make the
world safe for denocracy-not for

Baffled by Causes Of Wars

hypocrisy" as Thomas Wolfe Ia
ter suggested.
And after eight million soldiers
we're dead and buried, some guy
started to say that wer was all
wrong and that the dead soldiers
wouldn't get a grand welcome in
heaven. Foremost among them
was Beverley Nichols, who wrote
series of articles for MacLean's
Magazine titles Cry Havoc" The
newspaper in the early thirties
tried their best to deglamorize war,
by showing war horror pictures of
the starved and the dead and the
manned.
Then it became time for the
second war and all the pacifist
talk became unpopular.
This time they didn't say iC was
war to stop wars since they said
that the first time. But they said
it was a fight for freedom.
They said the war was all Hit
ler's fault, and I was convinced
that it was Hitler's fault, and I'm
still convinced.
But they said that the first war
was all Germany's fault, too. That
wasn't the way read it in the
history book, so I looked it up in
a high school history by Schapiro,
Morris and Seward.
read there that the causes of
the first world war were as follows
/. Aggressive nationalism that
swept over Europe.
2. Colonial imperialism.
3. The armament race.
4. Existance of autocratic gov
eminent in Russia.
5.Dispute of territories.
6. International fear and suspi-
cion.
Somebody was kidding me-.
ssass
So when I heard that the soldier
on the train had died, began to
wonder what the history books
would say about the second world
war. I wondered If future his
torians would put down the causes
like this:
l. Germany's fault.
2. Hitler's fault.
and leave it at that. Be-
cause that's the way I've been
hearing it.

Transition to Nisei Controls

The recent survey of Japanese Americans
in Seattle conducted by DIR. Robert w. O'Brien
and Frank Miyamoto of the Department of So
GEOLOGY, University of Washington, disclosed
that we will be witnessing a transition from
pre-War Isse controls to Nisei rule in our com
munity.
- O'Brlen and Miyamoto, however, ask:
1.-The signs indicate that increased, and
perhaps somewhat unusual, responsibilities will
converge on the Nisei within the coming decade.
1t seems pertinent to inquire what kind of ma
terial for community leadership and the as
sumption of personal responsibilities exists in
the assuredly large percentage of Nisei between
the ages of twenty and forty
That last paragraph, friends, boils down
to this:
DO the Nsei have it?
We believe the Nisei have it,
Nisei businesses mushroomng in large
numbers, and, it is nice to report, they are hold
ing their own in face of unpredictable purchas-
ing power in the community
Their chief objective now is to get back on
their feet. Once that is done you can bet your
last shirt civic-minded Nise won't neglect
their community affairs
During the trying World War II years,
the Nisei proved they were not only daring but
intelligent. AS men and women on the home
front, they performed nobly with other Ameri-
cans in the war effort AS members of the Uni
ted States armed forces, the Nisei posted a
distinguished remarkable record.
But, more than that, we believe the Nisei
will deliver the goods because they boast these
unique qualities-American originality and ia
panese industry

Dog Days

Dog Days
The lazy, restless and uninter-
esting days most of us are pursu-
ing now are in keeping with the
dog days" tradition. The diction-
airy gives the following definition
for the term: "a period of from
four to six weeks, between early
July and early September; popu-
larry, the sultry, close part of the
summer"
The dog days are no time to be
doing heavy reading or heavy
thinking. I am sure that General
Marshall and Stain and Mac
Arthur and the rest of the gang
can get along very well during
the summer months without any
help from me. And even if they
don't-even If we do unexpectedly
find ourselves blown up by the
atom bomb-that shouldn't bother
us much. At least it would solve
lot of problems.
remember once upon time
God got so disguised with the
world that He drowned everything
with the exception of Noah, his
family, and some selected beasts
and birds. I never think of she'd
ding tears over the women and
children who got drowned at that
time. r So feel sure that genera
lions five or six thousand years
from now won't be too upset Il
most of us departed this world by
way of the atom.

VETERANS' GUIDE
By MAJOR THOMAS M. NAL

It takes more than a doctor and a nurse to get a seriously disabled veteran to the point where he can be discharged from the hos pital.
 Sure, doctors, all kinds of them start the process. And the nurse must be on hand. But there are other experts, all of whom have a definite job to do on the pat tent
 There's the physical therapist He administers heat and light and massage treatment, tries to get the patients good muscles in shape so he can handle himself even if he has lost both his legs.
 And the occupational therapists. They teach a patient to weave maybe, or sculpt or something else like that. Why? So he'll streng- then his fingers and hands and be spending his time in a useful way.
 There's the corrective physical rehabilitation expert. He's the guy who carries out the doctors orders for certain exercises. Take a patient who mas had a bad knee, can't use it at all. The physical rehabilitation guy helps him do leg exercises designed to keep up circulation in that lad leg. The circulation makes the leg healthy.
 There's the educational therap- ist. He's probably the most im- portant of all Although, of course any one of these people is useless without the others. They work as a team.
 The educational therapist is just a plain old teacher, working full time in a VA hospital. If patient never got through high school be- fore he got through his Army phy- sical then the educational thera- pist fills him in with the needed courses. And he gets diploma, all while in the hospital.
 Courses range from high school English or geometry to accounting, say, or shorthand and typing. All these courses are good for mor- ale" because they create an in centive to the patient to get out of the hospital. He's not wasting time. He wants to get out and put into practice the stuff he's learned.
 Finally there's the manual arts" therapist. He, too, is really important fellow He teach es actual trades, like watch-mak- ing and repairing. Or how a radio works, and how to fix one that doesn't. Or how to repair re- frigerators. Lots of things. It depends upon the disability
 So the patient, instead of look ing forward to an inactive life of
The Daily Alaska empire., 1947-07-23

wall-staring. is taught a money making trade at the same time his medical and other treatment goes on. He's progressing all the time, pr. Donald Covalt told me, and that, he said. is the critically important thing. Dr. Covalt is in charge of all this medical re- mobilization. He said:
 We have some veterans in our hospitals who will never walk again. We have some who will never shake hands again, who'll never hear voice again. Hope less?
 Not a bit. Some, of course, will have to stay under a doctor s cars for the rest of their lives. But most will be able to go out and earn their own living, the way they want to. Our job is to convince them that they can go out and earn a living. And after convincing them, we have to teach them a living they can make, in spite of their disability.
 Its Leen gratifying to sec the reaction. This kind of rehabilita- ton is pretty new and I'd say we have developed it in our VA hos pitals as much as, if not more than, anywhere else. We've been asked more than once to take none-veteran into our hospitals, patients who have paraplegia tthey're paralyzed from the waist down) or acute arthritis or some other serious disability and let them take our treatment.
 of course, we can't do that. But some day we hope medical re- mobilization will be standard in all hospitals No doust it will"
