IOWA FALLS, Ia.,, May

9.—He eame into the area of

light from the windows of the train which paused here momentarily at 1 0 ‘clock in the morning, a lean and agile

figure in overalls. He wore a close - fitting work cap with a visor, and his grin was warm welcome at that hour, as the Rock Island’s “Rocket” plowed

back into the night. “Taxi?” As we rolled along a deserted

| street toward the hotel, I asked

him whether many boys from around here had gone to the army. “Yep, they've about cleaned us out,” he said. Then he launched into his own diag- : 5 nosis of the war. ? “I think our Mr. Stokes folks are about over the hump, now. If they can keep on dropping them bombs over the Germans, I think we'll get 'em.”

Seemed Far From War—Once

-He was enthusiastic about a broadcast he’ had heard earlier in the evening—direct conversation from Newfoundland and elsewhere by Atlantic transport bombers, telling what they were doing, how they came and went across the ocean,

how they sometimes flew all the way |

across without seeing the sea. That last seemed to amaze him most. His running account was as vivid as the broadcast. At the hotel I told the night clerk I had been here with Wendell Willkie on a 1940 campaign trip. “Yes, he spoke over in the -park. A nice man, Willkie.”

I was stopping here again because this town, when I visited it with the Republican presidential candidate nearly two years ago, seemed so peaceful, so far from the war then thundering in Europe. The morning the Willkie party arrived the news had just come that Japan had joined the Berlin-Rome axis, and on the train we had been full of talk about ‘what that meant, and Mr. Willkis had been much con-

Sons Now Overseas

Then we had stepped into this quiet town, and the people, standing about the park, seemed utterly unaware of war.

This is true no longer. Nobody, two years ago, could possibly have believed the change that was coming here. Now, in Iowa Falls and in Harden county, they are learning about war first-hand in the letters from their boys. Some were at Pearl Harbor, others in the Philippines, and many others are on the way to various fronts. Five hundred young men have gone to the wars from this one county, the editor of the semiweekly paper, Ernest C. Cassil, told me. A big, husky young fellow with what they call “git-up-and-git” out here, keenly interested in what goes on in the world and in his community, too, and how each reacts upon the other, Mr. Cassil is Jowa Falls’ director of civilian defense. He has appointed 18 committees for the various functions of civilian defense. Only two, however, are very active—finance and morale,

No Bombs Expected

The latter, he said, is doing a good job sending things to the soldiers from this country. People here certainly don’t expect any bombing, so they can’t get excited about protection against air raids. Leaving him to some office chores and promising to meet him later for. the weekly Rotary club meeting, I went down the street and chatted awhile with a local official who works with the farmers, He reported much discontent among farmers over the labor situation. It started with the strikes in defense industries before Pearl Harbor, and it still persists. The farmers think that labor is “holding wp” the administration, and they criticize the administration for submitting to the “holdup,” he said.

Farmers, he said, also question some of the rationing plans, particularly sugar, and wonder whether such plans are all really necessary. They are not entirely sure of what comes out of Washington, not

. |sure whether every step has been

carefully considered from all angles before it is taken.

Farmers Short of Help They don’t see, for example, how the government can take over all stocks of such things as tires and hemp which now are in retail outlets, and why these can’t be distributed. Also, the farmer usually buys sugar by the 100-pound “sack, and it seems a nuisance to have to wear out tires going to town so often to get it in driblets under rationing. There are also, he said, some complaints among farmers about the draft. They think it's administered too strictly, in some cases, in taking sons needed on the farm. A farm labor shortage is developing, I discovered in interviews here and elsewhere. Boys are leaving the farm for good wages in war industries, as well as through the draft. The farmers in this section also would like to see Mrs. Roosevelt “shut up,” my informant told me. Protest Against Waste

After the Rotary meeting I talked to the president, who said that war bond and stamp sales got off to a slow start here. He attributed that, from comments about town, to the stories of war profiteering and of waste in Washington, and to “labor always fighting for* higher wages.” In the afternoon the editor took me visiting among farmers in the nearby = countryside. The gravel arm-to-market roads were all right after the recent heavy rains, but the muck was deep in the farmyards, and he provided boots for both of us. One farmer, feeding a lively crop of White Plymouth Rock fledglings, had no complaint about the way they are running the war in Washington. “Some folks don’t like this, and some don’t like that—but that’s always . true,” he said philosophically. Some Dislike British “Most of the farmers around here are for Mr. Roosevelt. They ought to be,” he added emphatically. What about John L. Lewis? “I haven't got no time for him,” he said, turning his head away from the chickens gabbling and pecking at his feet to spit. “I don’t want to see any crowd get too strong that way.” My editor friend had told me there was considerable anti-British ‘sentiment in this community, which has a strong strain of German settlement. We found evidence of this when we called on another farmer, 67 years old, who came here from Germany when he was 17. He was helping three husky, apple-cheeked sons to build a barn, and a noble structure it was, with its highpeaked roof. Lost on 1918 War Bonds He couldn't see “why that little island should have so many possessions,” or “why John Bull should tell us what to do.” He had bought a thousand dollars’ worth of liberty bonds in the last~-war, and had lost $27 on them when he sold them afterward. He didn’t like that. He's not buying so many war bonds this time, as yet, though farmers generally here are subscribing generously. He thought the trouble with the world is in its rulers, he told us as he took us about the loft of the barn and explained, in painstaking detail, how it had been put together. It was a lordly barn, something to be proud of, and he and his boys had built it all themselves.

SOLUTION ADDS LIFE TO TEETH

Chemical Treatment Tested On Children of City Checks Decay.

_By Science Service CHICAGO, May 9.—Hope of preventing tooth decay by swabbing a chemical solution on the teeth appears in a report by Dr. Virgil D. Cheyne of the Indiana University School of Dentistry in the journal of the American Dental association here. The solution is potassium fluoride. Drinking water that contains fluo-

rides causes the ugly condition of

mottled enamel, but even a small amount of fluorides in the water, it has been discovered, prevents tooth decay. However, this effect, it was formerly believed, depended on the fluorides getting into the teeth via the drinking water at a very early age, while the teeth are being formed in the jaws. Recent experiments by other scientists suggested that the fluorides might get into the teeth enamel after the teeth had erupted. Dr. Cheyne swabbed a potassium fluoride solution every three months or so on the “baby” teeth of 27 4-to-6-year-old children from the underprivileged sections of Indianapolis. All the children had decayed teeth at the start of the experiment. One year later these children and 19 others with the same economic and dental status were re-examined. These 19 untreated children had developed almost twice as much new tooth decay as the 27 treated children. Further tests on more children over a longer period of time will be needed for final evaluation of the method, but the results so far point to a new method of attacking the widespread problem of tooth decay.

SEEK THREE BODIES AFTER PLANE CRASH

McCHORD FIELD, Wash., May 9 (U.

Pigeons Dropped To Help French

VICHY, May 9 (U. P.).—The royal air force has dropped caged pigeons, complete with leg capsules, in France, to help the civil--ian popilation inform the British about German activities, it was revealed today. A questionnaire asks details of German troop dispositions, and, particularly, whether they have heard any signs or heard any talk of an impending invasion of England, and if so, from what points it will start. Then, the French are directed to stuff their replies into the capsules, and release the pigeons.

HOUSE MAY CUT TAX INCREASES

Committee Expert Pares|-

2 Billion Off Plan of

Morgenthau.

WASHINGTON, May 9 (U. P.).— The house ways and means committee today considered a proposal by its own staff of experts to cut the administration's 1943 war revenue program by some $2,000,000,000. The staff, headed by Colin E. Stam, recommended a revised schedule of levies on individual income which would increase collections by only $1,900,000,000 annually, compared with the treasury’s requested $4,300,000,000. It still was too early for a definite indication on what the committee’s final decision will® be buf in the last two years the committee has resolved most disputes between the staff and the treasury in favor of its own experts.

: Sales Tax Hinted

It was indicated that if the committee adopted the Stam proposal over the treasury’s request the difference probably would be made up by a general sales tax. Mr. Stam yesterday suggested an increase from 4 to 6 per cent in the normal individual income tax and retention of present exemptions and the 10 per cent earned income credit on earnings up to $14,000. Under the Stam plan a family with one child earning .$3000 a year who this year paid $58 would be required to pay $118—the same amount as under the treasury’s original program of March 3. Under Mr. Morgenthau’s new proposal, such a family would pay $206. Mr. Stam’s plan would call for surtaxes ranging from 11 to 80 per cent, compared with the treasury’s proposed range of 12 to 86 per cent.

HOW FAR WILL 2 GALLONS 60?

Experts Say 45 Miles Is Possible With Extremely

ig the best outlook on the basis of statistical data in the hands of Detroit's automotive experts. But, there are a lof of factors that enter into the question of how far the hypothetical non-essential motorist can go. The 45-mile figure is based on tests “in traffic” with a se-called low or medium-priced car and—we repeéat—‘“extremely careful driving.” The motorist with a heavier car or wasteful driving habits is going to have ‘to subtract from that figure, - In order fo get the maximum mileage automotive experts recommend that the motorist start slowly and stay within 20 miles an hour. The mileage expectancy drops as the speed increases over that figure. The motorist who impatiently

OPA to Determine

East’s Gas Ration WASHINGTON, May 9 (U. P.)— The office of price administration this week-end will clear up the mystery of just how much gasoline East coast motorists can buy when rationing begins May 15. Price Administrator Leon Henderson clarified the question somewhat yesterday when he told a house committee that “non-essential” motorists will get. between two and three gallons weekly. The system goes into effect May 15 and will last for seven weeks, when a permanent plan will be substituted. Mr. Henderson told the committee the western tip of New York, the Pennsylvania area west of Harrisburg and most of West Virginia will be withdrawn from the rationing regulations. Registration of car owners will begin next Tuesday, and Mr. Henderson said he expected one-third of the motorists to be classed as non-essential.” He promised that workers will get “enough gasoline to get to and from their jobs.”
