Mr. Hiner, as an able businessman, was listened to with great respect by ‘the others. Finally, a young man in the group said regretfully: “Well, I'll never get any place in life ‘because I have-only an 8th grade education.” Mr. Hiner turned to him, looked him. over critically, and retorted: “Trouble with you, young man, is you're over-educated. I only went through the third grade.” The crowd roared. , . . Lee. Gallagher of the Fabric shoe shop sends me a clipping from a Chicago paper explaining that under A new ordinance it's unlawful in Chicago to permilt’ a ragweed to live, Just what we need here, says Mr, Gallagher, and he suggests that I start campaigning for a similar measure here. The Chicago ordinance, passed to ald hay fever sufferers, provides fines ranging from $5.to $200 for property owners or tenants who permit ragweed to grow on their premises between July 1 and 15 and Aug. 1 and 15. I sympathize with the alms of the ordinance, but fail to see how it can be enforced effectively. Just the same, it would be a hoon to hay fever sufferers if all you readers would get busy and destroy all ragweed you see. , , . Mrs, Richard L.

Aviati NEW YORK, July 7.—Boeing B-29 Superfortress crews taking new planes into the battle against the Japs are undergoing. a “super” safety training program which also is being extended to modifications

of the big bombers. Under. the leadership of Amos L.. Wood, field service engineer

Seattle, 150 TR's (technical representatives) are working dally at the B-29 training bases throughout the country and at takeoff points in the Pacific. They are checking all aceldents, ascertaining causes and recommending Immediate improvements at bases, modifications of bombers and special-type safety “training of e¢rews and ground mainfenance men. In Néw York today, Field Service Engineer Wood told of the in-

tensive drive being directed to bring accidents at

home and abroad down to a minimum, thus saving valuable lives and costly bombers.

Landings Cause Accidents “WE HAVE FOUND that about 65 per cent of the accidenis are caused by mental lapses, carelessness due to possible strain and fatigue,” he said. “Landings cause the largest number of accidents in the training and handling of B-29’s. Someone fqrgets to lower landing gear. or perform some othér standard, simple Suty, And it goes on from there,

Heé turned south onto| Pennsylvania from 84th and proceeded carefully as befits a member of the safety council. He ‘was on a through street, but slowed down as he neared 33d. And a good thing it was, too. Two cars zipped across Pennsylvania, one headed east and the other west, just ahead of him. ‘If he'd been going fast, he'd have been wrecked.

Practical Joking ROBERT N. DODD, OPA investigator, is watching his chances to gét even with a certain friend for a practical joke. Mr, Dodd, who lives at 824 W. bith st, and raises rabbits as a side line, returned home the other day and found a small crowd awaiting his arrival. A glance around revealed the cause. Tacked up around the place were various home-made signs advertising "Eating rabbits, 5 cents a pound”; “Fresh country eggs, 20 cents a dozen"; “Fresh butter,” etc. The signs were removed hastily. . . . Mrs. Edwin Tierney; 603 N. Rural, answered the doorbell the other day and found three small children .there. One of them asked if Mrs. Tierney would like to contribute some honey to a fund to buy cigarets and candy for servicemen. “Where's your mother?” asked Mrs. Tierney. “She's at home,” was the reply. Mrs. Tierney, who was a little suspicious of the venture, told the youngsters that if their mother would come over she'd be glad to donate. The youngsters said, “Okay” and departed. In a little while the bell rang again. It was the mother. While her back was turned, she said, the children had hatched up the money raising scheme and in a short time had collected $156 which, but for her imterference, would have added to the candy shortage. She was back-tracking, ringing doorbells to find where the money had been collected so

me un-American to say so, but I believe that America should give Germany and all other bewildered peoples every help it can, including a chance to see how stupidly unnecessary wars are. Little nations are eager for freedom from big| nations which cling to shaky dominafice; kings clipg to tottering thrones—and everybody is alarmed, saying that another war is near. But who would start a war now? Germany, left alone amid its ruins, could not bé a strong power in 50 years; Gen, Jacob L. Devers made it 100. Britain hardly has enough men left te police the empire; Russia has Jost 20,000,500 killed and wounded, its cities are flat and its transportation boggled. France? Italy? America is the only nation with air, naval and ground power to wage a war now-=and who would say that Americans want more of this ghastly business? 80 the fact must bg faced. Germany will starve, as will other European peoples, if it continues without industry, agriculture and commerce. And the consequénces would be terrible to behold.

War's Fertile Field

THE GERMAN and Austrian peoples are industrious and Americans admire the man who is out patching his roof the morning after the shell hit, who zleans the streets and fixes the sewers and water mains and light cables. That's the way we'd do it. There are thousands of German war prisoners in our army garages, road gangs and cleanup squads— and when your American soldiers get home they'll tell you that “the Krauts were pretty good workers.” Perhaps in all history a worse dynasty than the Nazi has never been known. That it was permitted to rise and take hold was a world y. That it had to be crushed, we all know. Well, it’s gone now, and with it all its weapons of war. So I for one vote to sow the seeds of future peace, not war; I vote for the elimination of tactics that breed hatreds. I've been through two world wars and each day my loathing grows, as does the convietion that war's most fertile fleld is a discontented people,

More than 1000 modifications have been made on the B-29 since the first one came off the production line, for various réasons of safety and efficiency of performance. “If the accident results from a mental lapse or carelessness, the crews are given a safety talk informed how to prevent that type of accident again and steps are taken to insure a ‘check’ by some *member of thé crew on that particular operation before a landing is made in the futaire, “Results have heen surprising.

Proof of Ruin Facing Japan May Inspire Move for Peace

By LOUIS F. KEEMLE United Press War Analyst Japan's leaders find themselves faced with an increasingly grave responsibility as the destruction of their cities by American air forces mounts. It is up to them; to decide whether to continue fighting the war after it has been obviously lost—as Germany did—and meet with as great or greater destruction. Japan has been promised a far heavier weight of bombs than Germany received, and in a shorter time. : The Japanese know now that the promise can be kept. They. know also that their industrial targets are more concentrated and vulnerable; and what the final effect will be, Today's attack by about 600 B-20’s against five more key cities Is just another reminder.

} I~ The Japanese have no means to

combat this systematic destruction Their ground defenses and air fighter forces have proved totally inadequate. Kamikaze or suicide methods ale: useless. The question of surrendering before there is nothing much worthwhile left to surrender therefore must have arisen in certain Jap

anese minds. Probably unconditional surrender, which is the allied demand is

the military but by the industrial and properties interests—anxious to salvage enough to make a new start from better than scratch. The rejection of such proposals, which is almost certain, might widen the cleavage between the military ‘and the industrialists and hasten the day when the latter would force: capitulation on allied terms. The top men In Japan have known for some time that military victory over the tremendous allied power massed against them is impossible. Determination to continue the war has been inspired by three principal factors: 1. Hope_ for a division among the allies. 2. Belief that if Japan can drag the war out long enough, the allies will ¢ weary of fighting and agree to call off the bloodshed. 3. Hope that by creating .a convincing prospect of such along war, the Japanese can obtain early and reasonably favorable terms. The first idea has been about

it. China's relations with the other powers are on a firm footing and het premiér'is on a friendly mission to Moscow. As for Japan's ability tq fight indefinitely, bettef-informed minds in Tokyo probably are not fooled by their propaganda. The
