the turn of the year the total will exceed 3,000,000.

Outnumber Home Roll

In a dozen or more cities the number - of federal civilian employees is far greater than the number of municipal and county employees. For instance, in Philadelphia, which is no laggard in the matter of city and county ‘employees, the federal personnel, including those at the navy yard, number 130,000. The problem is by no means confined to Washington, congested as is the capital city. In the Washington metropolitan area the civilian employees number only about 300,-

BUILDING OF SHIP TOPS ALL MARKS

Freighter Complete, Loaded And Sailed to Port In 51 Days.

SOMEWHERE IN AUSTRALIA, Nov. 10.— Outside ' the darkening mouth of a secluded Pacific island port, a blinker light showed against the darkness. Another blinker light answered from the dark shadow of a pilot boat, a few yards away. Another liberty ship had reached

her port, safely loaded with supplies and munitions of war. Other ships have come and departed in darkness, but this one | was remarkable for one thing: | Fifty-one days before that blinkler light announced her arrival on | the far side of the Pacific, that liberty ship did not exist. These new-born ships have done something miraculous for the troops. Sometimes, letters from relatives take as long as eight weeks to arrive in the southwest Pacific.

Nothing but Parts

When a soldier, chatting with an American sailor, learns that the ship lying hull down at the dock with cranes weaving over her, was nothing but a medley of disassembled parts when his latest letter was written, the soldier begins to appreciate what American shipbuilders have done for him. To understand. this accomplishment, it is necessary, as Hamlet told his mother, to “look on this picture and on this.” Shortly after Christmas, when Singapore's fate was still unguessed and Java seemed as secure as Rabaul (New Britain), a high American naval officer in the Pacific radioed Washington stating that certain essential supplies must be sent as urgently as possible for the replenishment of the American Asiatic fleet. Washington replied that the supplies were available and would be brought together with the utmost urgency and given priority choice in the first freight-carrying transport. But even with optimum efficiency a freighter could be expected to make the landfall approximately two months later, that is, the.first week of March. Java had then fallen.

Thanks to Program

Today, thanks to the shipbuilding program of Rear Admiral Emery S. Land and new methods of welding rather than riveting ships, a cargo can be assembled and arrive in many days less. Most unbelievable of all, the supply services of the army and navy can start without any freighter, order their liberty ship built for a voyage, load it, cross the Pacific, and unload it—all in ‘about 10 days less time than was required in the old

WARN SOLDERS

Americans Are Forbidden ‘To Even Speak: tothe "Moslem Women.

. ALLIED NORTH AFRICAN HEADQUARTERS, Nov. 10: (U. P.). —American soldiers in North Africa today. were. forbidden.even to speak to a Moslem woman, lest they imperil the whole campaign. A booklet warned them to put aside all preconceived notions and ideas about women in: Africa, that the “most innocent word” to a Moslem woman is an insult to Moslem men. “There is no Arab custom which must ‘be respected more completely than ‘their attitude toward women,” it said. “The difference between peaceful and friendly relations with the natives on the one hand and serious difficulty on- the. other may depend on whether or not. ‘every single one of us’ understands and respects the very special outlook the Moslems have toward women. “You must not talk to Moslem women. Never, under no circumstances. The most innocent word addressed ‘to a Moslem woman is considered an insult: bitterly resented by all Moslem men.

Arab ‘Customs

“If an Arab asks you to his house, the women in the house are confined to their quarters. If anything is said or done by you which would make the Moslem men feel you have shown disrespect for their women, - there “will be no limit to their righteous indignation. “Regarding Moslem women, you must put . aside all your preconceived notions and ideas. ‘Remember this at all times. is a most serious warning.” The booklet in other respects was similar to one issued to United States forces going to Britain. It contained a geographical sketch of the landing area, customs, living conditions

and many do’s and don’ts.

CHARLEROI, Pa. Nov. 10 (U. P.).—Two of the proudest children

in the nation today were Kathryn and Earl Eisenhower of Charleroi. Lieut. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, commander of the American forces which have invaded Africa, is their uncle. “That's our uncle Dwight” chorused Kathryn, 8, and Earl Jr., 6, children of Earl D. Eisenhower, brother of the general “There just was no holding them,” said the father, a West Penn Power Co. employee. He revealed he received a letter from his famous brother from London about two weeks ago. The letter, he said, “had me feeling action was near, though, of course, he didn’t hint at anything at all. Part of his letter said: ‘I'd like to tell you something about details—it would be very interesting—but I can't.’” The brothers haven't seen one another since 1939.
