To Workers on Approach Of New Year.

Copyright, 1942, by The Indianapolis Times and The Chicago Daily News, Inc. MOSCOW, Dec. 31.—With the approaching new: year, two of the Soviet Union's leading newspapers have appealed for even greater production in 1943 than marked the past 12 months. The pronouncements merit more than ordinary attention for they come from “Pravda, the organ of

the central committee of the Communist party and Izvestia, mouth-

‘| piece for the Soviet government as

distinguished from the party organization. Both point out the tremendous advances made by Soviet industry during the year when it was compelled to readjust itself to problems involved in the evacuation of large areas of the Ukraine where much manufacturing previously was con-

‘| centrated.

There is a certain amount of implied - self-criticism in these accounts. Hundreds of thousands of young men and women found jobs in the factories of the Soviet Union during the last 12 months. In many cases they have mastered a few operations of a few machines. These workers must be capable of a great variety of activity, the paper says, admitting the size of the problem but posing this as one that can be solved during the coming year.

QUICK QUIZ ‘ON PROPELLERS

By Science Service BERKELEY, Cal, Dec, 31.—Ever hear of King Ayadara? Neither has anybody else, apparently, for the past 2500. years or more. Yet in his time Ayadara was a combination of Hitler and Hirohito—or at least he fancied himself as such, for he was formally addressed as “King of the World.” The only trace of this pompously titled universal monarch, the only thing that tells us he ever existed, is a curved strip of bronze, dug up in pre-war days at Tell en-Nasbeh in ‘Palestine by the late Prof. William F. Bade. It is about as thick as a penny postcard, less than half an inch wide, and represents about a third of a circle a little over six inches in diameter. When found it was crusted with oxide, but when it ‘was finally cleaned up it disclosed a clean-
