Fortress Crew Battles a Life Raft, Nazi Fighters.
AMERICAN AIR BASE IN ENGLAND, June 30 (U. P.).—The flying ‘fortress named “Georgia Rebel” had a fough bout with a life raft and German fighter planes on the way back from St. Nazaire in. a raid this week, but came home unscarred. Lt. Oscar Jones of Albany, Ga., pilot of the Rebel, told today how the life raft almost downed his big
back alongside the fort, wrapping itself around the tail fin. The flapping raft set up vibrations throughout the fortress and neutralized the controls. While the Rebel was spiraling down, Lt. Melvin R. Hecker of Chicago, the copilot, ran back to the waist of the ship. Reaching out of the waist gunner’s port, he tried to disengage the raft by tugging at its lines. Finally he tied the lines around the waist gun and with leverage was able to wrench the raft loose. While Hecker was fighting with the raft, the rest of the crew were fighting the Germans, who swarmed in to finish off the disabled ship. Two attacking planes were downed and the Rebel, her controls again responding to Jones’ touch, rejoined her formation.

Auto Association Seeks 6-Month Moratorium on $5 Payment.
WASHINGTON, June 30 (U. P.). —The American Automobile association today urged congress to declare a six-month moratorium on the “pay-or-you-can’t-go” federal auto use tax as motorists were warned that this is the last day to obtain their $5 windshield sticker. A. A, A President Thomas P. Henry said reports, particularly from Atlantic seaboard, showed that motorists “bitterly oppose paying a tax on use of their cars at a time when such use, under government regulation, is almost at the vanishing point.” He asked congress to permit motorists to forego the payment for the remainder of the year.
Issues Final Warning Of Auto Tax Deadline
Motorists, here's the final warning from Will H. Smith, internal revenue collector: Today is positively the last to purchase a $5 federal use tax stamp. Motorists who drive after midnight without the yellow sticker on the windshield will be subject to arrest and a $25 fine. Thousands of car owners delayed their purchase until the last day and lined up at no less than six windows at the internal revenue bu reau today. x
MILK CONTROL LAW TO END AT MIDNIGHT
The state milk control law becomes ineffective at midnight tonight, throwing out of office the state milk control board and its 41 employees. The 1943 G. O. P.-controlled legislature refused to extend for another two years the milk . control law which has been effective in Indiana since 1935. C. Wright Humrickhouse, executive secretary of the board, met today with the commission on public records to determine what papers of the board should be kept and what destroyed. He said he probably would remain in his office for the next few days to close up affairs.

fourth machine was a special sign indicating that its worker was a “Stakhanovite,” pledged to overfulfill his or her norm of produc-
tion. The Stakhanovites, strange as it would seem to us, are actually pieceworkers, paid at a progressively increasing rate on a speedup system which is like an accelerated Bedeaux system. The Russian industrial system is a strange paradox to an American. The method of employing and paying labor would satisfy our most unsocial industralist. And the way capital is treated would, I believe, completely satisfy a Norman Thomas, After luncheon, I began to question a short, wiry young fellow whom the director had introduced to me as the superintendent of production, his bright young man. » ” ”
What Are Lures?
HE REMINDED ME so much of the promising American industrial type that I decided to try to find out from him what were the urges and the lures under the Communist system that caused him to educate himself beyond his fellows, to work the extra hours necessary to become superintendent over 30,000 men, and to - acquire the knowledge that was clearly leading him toward the top. He said he'd be glad to answer my questions. He told me that he was 32 years old, married, and the father of two children. He lived in a comfortable house much better than the average, and in peacetime had an automobile. “How does your pay as superintendent of this factory compare with the pay of the average skilled worker in the plant?” I asked him. He thought for a moment: “It’s about 10 times as much.” That would be, at the same ratio, $25,000 or $30,000 a year in America, and actually was about what a man of similar responsibility in America would receive. So I said to him, “I thought communism meant equality of reward.” - : Equality, he told me, was not part of the present Soviet conception of socialism. “From each according to his capacities, to each according to his WORK.” >

Worker’s Money
FROM THIS young executive I learned that the Russian worker can use his money in much the same way that we here in America can. He can spend it or save it, invest it in a home, a place in the country or in NONINTEREST bearing government
ONE WORLD by Wendell L. Willkie is breaking all sales records as a book and more copies have already been sold than any book in history over a similar period of time.
We are proud to be able to present to our readers this version of ONE WORLD, carefully condensed into 10 1installments from the book of 60,000 words, to be followed by a new and exclusive article by Mr. Willkie as the final installment.
Russia does not permit anyone to make a return on -capital— therefore the non-interest bearing bonds. After listening to him declare that he was in complete accord with the economic and political theories of that state I asked him, “But if you happened to hold different ideas, could you express them and fight for them?” It took me 10 minutes of hot colloquy to get him even to consider such a supposition, and then his answer was only a shrug of the shoulders. It was my turn to be impatient and I said, somewhat sharply, “Then actually you've got no freedom.” ” » ”
Father a Peasant HE DREW himself up almost belligerently and said, “Mr. Willkie,
father and grandfather ever had. They were peasants. They were never allowed to learn to read or write. They were slaves to the soil. “When they sickened, there were no doctors or hospitals for them. I am the first man in the long chain of my ancestors who has had the opportunity to educate himself, to advance himself —to amount to anything. And that for me is freedom. ’ “It may not seem freedom to you, but, remember, we are in the developing stage of our system. Someday we'll have political freedom, too.” I pressed him: “How can you
ever have political freedom and |
economic freedom where the state owns everything?”

PAY-G0 STARTS AT MIDNIGHT
Some Employers to Deduct Levy From Payrolls This Week.

WASHINGTON, June 30 (U. P.. | —The war production board today | assumed jurisdiction over wood | pulp distribution in a move to meet “insistent demands” for paper products from the military and other essential consumers in the face of “severe” shortages. Effective immediately, WPB will, when necessary, control the use of any or all wood pulp by manufacturers of paper, paper board and other products. This action, it was said, will enable WPB to insure that sufficient wood pulp is reserved not only for the production of essential paper products, but for
