The combine swelled quickly into seven big West coast plants, with an array of tributary com panies, rising to a tremendous motum at this moment and still Whe uptake. He devisedamong other new techniques, theKaiser process, by which ships are birilfin a concrete chamber, allowing men to work both above and below. Completing the ship, they flood the drydock and the ship is floated out. Two years ago when 6,000 tons of magnesium were being produced each year under patents held by a German cartel, Mr. Kaiser heard of an Austrian scientist, Dr. F. J. Hansgirg, who had a novel process, and he also learned of large depos its of low grade ore in Nevada. He brought the scientist and the ore to gether, built a big plant near San Jose, Calif., and in a short time was producing magnesium at the rate of ,Mftroi-wMr4 - t He is awhirlwirtd of energy on the job, frequently on the airways between his vast plan -uoh-mond- Paii., rtugeies and Port land, Ore. , -.iV.

WHEN A REPORTER CRVSADES against dirty clement in community or country there it very little glory connected with it, but he putt himself in great per sonal danger . . . Donald R. Mellett of the Canton (Ohio) Daily News was killed by migangsters because he exposed their activi ties . . . In 1922, George Dale o the M un tie Post-Democrat fought the K. K. K. One night a few of them attacked him and al most beat him to death. He shot one of his attackers with a gun he wrenched from his hand. Kluxers in high places railroad ed him to jail. And it wasn't until 1926 that the State Supreme Court ruled in Dale's favor ... For many years the Butte (Montana) Daily Bulletin slugged courage ously against the no-goods, regardless of how powerful they were. Because of that, they had to keep loaded rifles in the city room ana! every reporter had a gun lay ing beside his typewriter . . . This reporter has also never slopped firing his typewriter guns against the slimey members of our community and country, in spite of all kinds of threats. Yet some people wonder why we tote a 38. Notes of an Innocent Bystander: The Wireless: See how the Axis whimpers when you get tough. Churchill slapped a couple of chips off Adolf's shoulder, and Berlin cried its eyes out. "You ask for gas," taunted Winston, "and gas you'll get." The Berlin press whined next day, "Please, mister, you got us wrong" . . . The overseas exchange between Oliver Littleton and Donald Nelson, with Quentin Reynolds chairmaning, was no encourage ment to Nazzy eavesdroppers. They talked great big production figuresjjl clean cloth. Repeat until the that won't make it an easy suramt-r for the Fritzies.. -. .

Byioc Price is a sensible censpr -Too tight ackir.p down on radio news, he said, would make the public suspi cious of the war effort . . . The March of Time flubbed on the Malta episode. Bad timing more than any thing since the show went on the air before it really got going in Malta. The Story Tellers: Gen. de Gaulle was in the doghouse with the brass hats before the war started. Elliot Paul, in his book, "The Last Time I Saw Paris," mentions that de Gaulle pooh-poohed the Maginot Line, the darling of the army clique. He foresaw that Hitler would skip around the end . . .. Scott Feldinan ounrlsefr ytfa uvThe Wofcaan wi tip that the bestVay to get a stage job is to troupe for a little theater. There's always a Shubert or two lurking there, he says, to hire you for a hit. Imagine Lee Shubert go ing TOWARD an actor I . . . Film ster Joan Davis, according to Lup ton Wilkinson in This Week, "lives in a purple house with yellow knobs at the corners, sleeps in a Du Barry bed with mauve and lilac streamers. The glass in her bou doir mirror is tinted peachbloom." What's she looking for? Nightmares in technicolor? Nasi propagandists keep repeat ing that they love peace. Every time Hitter of'4bjjtther Nazi makes a speech, they insist that they are peaceful. And the tragic part of this is that this propaganda bullet aimed at America was manufac tured by an American press agent I ... When the Nazis first came to power they never stopped boasting to the outside world about their war like attitude . . But when this press agent was in Germany, he told the Nazis to base their propa ganda on disarmament and peace :. . . You've probably guessed hit name Ivy . Lee . . And so it was this tip by a press agent that made many Americans and people in oth er democracies believe Nazis really J wan tea peace, btrange as it seems, we might not have had a war if democracies weren't lulled to sleep by Nazi peace talk. The Feept Pages: The Herald Tribune editorially declared war on Laval ft' Co., and advised the State Dep't that 7ichr has ratted n the USA from the start It okayed Jap bases for attacks on China,' the pa- rr reminaea. and cautioned .Hull that Laval's word wasn't any bet tor than-, police, court package thieTsVV ; .

Pineapple and peach juices mixed in ginger ale make a de licious punch. Add the ginger ale at the last moment and serve in glasses or a pitcher half-filled with crushed ice. The ice is needed to dilute as well as to chill the beverage. To protect posts against ter mites, soak them (the posts, of course) in fuel oil before putting into the ground. To help preserve the color of beets and red cabbage when cook ing, use a tablespoon of vinegar to each quart of water. When cotton sheets begin to wear out in the center, rather than sew the outside hems together, make two pillow slips of the two good ends. Light-colored leather seats on chairs should be washed frequent ly. Make a lather of warm water and mild soap, apply this on a sponge to the leather.
