Senate Report Tells
Armed Services How
To Save Millions
~ the Associated Press

"A Senate committee report laid
down some detailed advice today
to the armed services on how to
save millions of dollars.
Fewer flying hours for Air Force
and Navy pilots assigned to desk
jobs could save 50,000,O0o or per-
haps more, the report said.
It also asked removal of extra
sadgets from jeeps and trucks and
Questioned spending $l50,00O
apiece for a new type eight-ton
truck. It also expressed some
doubts about a $685. 900 gun.

directives back up the Senate Ap-
preparations Committees drive to
slash $1,118,736,322 from the $15,-
908, 10000 previously approved by
the House. This covers Army
Navy and Air Force costs for the
fiscal year that began July l.

Senator Thomas calls the five-
year postwar stockpiling plans
"cockeyed, but defense officials
and Senators from Western min
ing States are opposing him.
The hitherto confidential COM
mittee report outlined these par
ticular targets for economy:
/. Reductions in the flying time
required for administrative and
proficiency flying by the Air Force
and Navy" especially for flying
officers on desk jobs. 1t COM
planned that Air Force desk
pilots used large wo-motored
aircraft that cost from $50 to 500
an hour to operate. 1t suggested
smaller planes be used and that
two pilots take training time to-
gether with an estimated savings
"of between $20,000.000 and $780,
900. 900 a year"
Cutback in Flying Time.
2. A cutback in flying time for
Guard and Reserve officers of the
Air Force now listed for 125 and
100 hours each year. Navy Re-
serve pilots train 80 hours a year,
the Senate was told, with an esti-
mate that If the Air Force did the
same "the saving would be in the
order of s25,000,000."
3. The large numbers of Navy
shore stations and Army posts.
Secretary of Defense johnson was
advised to get rid of inactive or
partially active installations, al
though this usually draws a
scream of protest from local COM
munitieS and their congressman.

with the House that jeeps and
trucks have too many gadgets and
directs the Army Bureau Of Ord
nance to remove superfous items. "
It added it was far from being
impressed over the plans for the
new 8-ton trucks, costing $150.000
apiece" and asked that mo money
be spent for these trucks nor for
similar trucks for the Air Force. "

Put Trust in God

There was once a man who thought
he had more than his pack of
troubles. In fact, trouble was about
all he ever had. People misunder-
stood and prosecuted him. Whenever
he took a stand for moral and spirit
val things he was hooted at by the
members of the anvil club. But he
got forward, made progress in spite
of opposition, learned how to extract
profit from his losses, found out
what things would work and what
would not.
Above all, he put his trust implic-
lily in God and went forward. When
he was older he wrote in the 37th
psalm: II was young and ann now
old, and / have not seen the right
eous forsaken nor his seed begging
bread"
We have but to wait the verdict
of the coming years and patiently
forge ahead. God is not defeated by
our little defeats, nor does he with
draw His Grace. Rather, when we
are in difficulty, "He giveth more
Grace"
My faith is this: There are many
turns in life's Uneven road, the road
that Gods infinite wisdom chooses
for his children. When age comes
on, I have faith that the final turn
in hfe's road will reveal the Home
land just around the final turn.

Thoughts on Life
Sunshine Tomorrow
By DIR. JOHN w. HOLLAND

SO MANY PEOPLE write me in
this vein: Il cannot see my way
through my troubles. What is the
answer to the troubles of the world?"
The answer requires whole vol
nmes, for it touches the age old
problem of the origin of evil. There
fore l can only suggest a partial
answer to these letters.
I am amazed now and then when
I think how our troubles, when they
are past, seem to take on a sort of
halo of light. Some poet said:
Nothing is sweeter than a remem-
bered sorrow"
A little poem just drifted from
somewhere across my desk. I do not
know who wrote it, but it is full of
philosophy and religion if you read
it Alright.
THEY'RE LAUGHING NOW"
They're laughing now! The strang-
est thing,
About the old, dead, worryful
And fretful times they used to know
Back in the vanished long ago,
When they were married first, and he
Had just his weekly salary.
You'd think twas fun to hear them
say
How he would walk to work each
day
TO save the carfare, and afraid
They couldn't get their gas bill
paid.
And how they worked for months,
before
They had a rug upon the floor.
And they are Boosting, too, about
The time he wore his trousers out
And she put on a patch, SO small
You'd hardly notice it at all.
He loves to tell that tale again,
Although it wasn't funny thenl
They're laughing now! And seems
to me
The old dead cares have grown
to be
The happiest memories of all;
AS if there's nothing to recall
So sweet as all those troubles grave
When Love was young and yer!
