wo a dh Fi To = 3 : Ee Aid | Japs Make Test Of Their Destiny Will Fight For Supremacy In Pacific Archipelago If the struggle that is now go- ing on img the Solomon Islands is not already a major engagement, it 1s going to be, says the New York Herald Tribune, If the Japa- nese are not there in eufliclent strength to recover possession, they may withdraw what they can salvage, But in that event they will be back with still stronger forces, to make a still more des- perate effort; and it seems likely that they will keep coming back; if they must, until they have no more powdr than enough. to défend their home islands left. It would indeed; that they have de- appear, cided to make a test of thelr des- tiny in this little group, feeling that if they cannot recover and hold these bits of territory which they have incorporated in thelr great new empire by conquest, they are going to lose it all, bit by bit, and they might as well know that now. Suffered Strateglc Loss The Japanese are, «al course, fully aware of the strategic loss they suffered when the Americans took the Tulagi-Guadalcanal area; * but {hey are "bovad to give much more consideration to what the psychological effect on their arm- ed forces would be if they could not, take that position back and had to admit it. It must be re- membered that this 1s the first imperial prize from which they are in serious danger of being bodily and permanently ejected, Thé struggles in China and New Guinea are not at an end; and losses there are regarded as posi- tional setbacks in unfinished busl- ness. But these islands were established conquest and, as such, parts of Hirohito's everlasting realm. The fixed belief, founded on historical experience, that when Japan has taken something no power on earth can take ft back, is probably the most precious of her military assets. It is about "the "only one that is not =o far on the decline. This faith {in Japan's destiny as a conquering - nation, which 'enables a soldier to feel sure that if his life is part of the price of. a conquest it is buy- ing his emperor and people ever- lasting aggrandizement, must be kept untarnished by doubt at any cost in men and material equip- ment, : Japan's Future At Stake The discovery in China that they are not everywhere and at all times invincible has frequently had a disastrous effect on Japanese _ soldiery. No Japanese commander knows what the effect on the arm- ed forces would be ii the perma- "nent loss of a possession to the Americans revealed to them that what they win they can also lose agin; and they do not want lo find out. [It might inspire a fatal- istic resignation to defeat. The feeling that they are the doomed victims of a great mistake might spread through the hundreds of widely scattered Japanese garrl- sons among hostile peoples. Japan's most urgent problem 'then. would be the organization of an orderly retreat upon the home Islands. But if the Americans can be thrown out of the Solomons in their turn, Japan's morale will bound to un- precedented' heights. So the men who are- commanding the counter- offensive may well feel that Jap- an"s whole future as a world power is at stake, right there and right now, and take the chances which such a consideration dictates. French Pay Nazis $7,500,000 Daily German occupation costs France $7,500,000 datly, the Figating French delegation in Washington reported recently. The cost of every hour of occu. pation is enough to support 500 French families of three persons each for an entire year, the dele- gation said. According .to the latest reports France hos paid since the armis- tice 320 billion francs (about $8, 000,000,000). Up to May 10, 1941, France paid 400 million daily, _ when the figure was reduced to 300 million francs a day. Germany uses 100 millions to cover the expenses of her troops of occupation. The other 200 mil lous are spent to buy French agri' cultural products, plundering France of {her resources, to hey ,raw materyls for fortifications being built al{ng the French coast, and to pay tHe wages of workers employed in 'their construction-- » making [France pay to build up a rampart against her future Ifb- erators, The Nazis also buy shares in. important French firms in order fo obtain their control. Unending Battle "The battle the Merchant Navy 2 is fighting is not a battle that is won in a day or week; it is an un- ending battle throuzhout the years of war.

While nearby gun barks HOW CAN I? Q. How can I make an even break in a glass bottle just below the neck? A. Wrap a picce of twine that has been saturated with turpen- tine or kerosene around the bottle at the point where the break is desired.

This can be done very easily by mixing two parts boiled lin-- seed oil and one part turpentine. An excellent polish will be the re- sult. Return of Supplies For Hong Kong Canadian Red Cross supplies which had been intended for dis- tribution among Canadian soldiers held prisoner in barred in tranéit by the Japanese Government, were discharged re- cently at a Canadian port from a motorship flying a neutral flag. The 1,600 tons of supplies con- sisted of flour, sugar, blankets, canned goods and medical essen: tials. The consignment had been load- ed for shipment to the Far East, but was re-routed when the Jap- anese declined to guarantee its de- livery. Great Britain Asks 'For More Cheese The agriculture department an- nounced last week that the British Food Ministry has advised that it is prepared to purchase an ad- ditional quantity of cheese above the 125,000,000 pounds--provided for in an agreement covering the 12 months ending March 31 next. "The additional quantity which the ministry has agreed to accept will, it is believed, permit of ex- port to the ministry of the greater part, and probably all the October made cheese which mgy be tender- 1. ed for export," the onaifiient "gaid. Good pasture conditions . and better prices were believed to have enabled the agriculture depart- ment to run ahead of schedule in the export of cheese Ip the pre- gent year, and it was understood that several million pounds in ex- cess of 125,000,000 could pro- bably be shipped if production re- mains as in past months, The price for the additional shipment will be the same as that for the main contract--20 dents a pound; f.0.b, steamer, Q. How can _I boil eggs so that : Hong Kong, Have You Heard? Two Scots went into the Shel: hourne Hotel, In Dublin, and in- quired the cost of a night's lodging. "Rooms on the first floor," re- plied the clerk, "are two guineas, on the second floor one guinea, the third floor ten shillings, and flve shillings for the top floor." The two prospective guests with- drew for a conference. When they returned, the clerk inquired cheer- ily, "Well, gentlemen, shall we book rooms for you?" "Na na, mister," replied the spokesman for the pair, "ye've a tine hoose, but it's nde naer helch eneuch." ve As Sandy went over the weekly housekeeping accounts his face grew .gloomy. "Look here, Mary," he sald severely, "mustard plaster, one shilling; tooth extracted, five shillings. There Is six shillings spent in one week entirely on your prl- vate pleasure." . --0-- The officer gazed sternly at the private who had been brought be- fore him, R "Did you call the sergeant a lar?" he demanded. "I did, sir." "And--a-twister?" * "Yes, sir." "And did you go on to describe him as a pop-eyed, knock-kneed, black-blighted stooge?" The private hesitated. Then with a note of regret in his voice, he replied: "No, sir. I forgot that!" wip Mrs. Modern (calling to-hus- band upstairs): "Will you bring down my hat, dear?" Husband: "Well, | don't know the difference hetween your hat and your handbag. which is which?" Mrs. Modern: © "The - one without any money in ls. my hat, darling." sees The young, wife was feeling and looking gloomy. i "What's the trouble, dear?' her friend, a wife of ten years stand- ing, inquired. "Oh--my husband has been out all the evening and I haven't the. faintest 'idea where he fs." "Oh, you shouldn't worry about that," her friend replied, breezily, "You'd probably be twice as miser- able it you did' know!" + pom Officer: "lI say, sergeant, where have all these, silly asses In our, company gone?" Sergeant: "| don't know, sir --1 think we're the only two left."

This is not to say the new pro-. cess to put the original taste in dehydrated milk, as. demonstrated by physicians of the New York Academy of Medicine, Is cowleas - It Is just that the orlginal' milk. producers down on the farm are far removed in time and space. What Dr. Charles E. North, orig- inator of the process, has done is to dry skim milk and milk fat separately, then mix them together and add water, weeks or maybe months later, to produce "fresh" milk, At a demonstration in a Long Island City Ice cream plant, 50 pounds of dehydrated milk fat, which looked like butter, an 110 pounds of dry skim milk were mix ed for several minutes with 520 The mixture made 600 quarts of milk and re- sulted in. these comments: = "Col. B. A. Seeley, Army Medlcal Corps: "Tasted like fresh milk to me, maybe better. But I'm not a milk drinker and I'm not sure 'I remember just how milk is sup- posed to taste." ' Dr. North: "The milk had a . cooked taste, but It was an acel- dent of preparation. Besides, the cooked taste disappears if the milk stands in - refrigeration for 12 hours." Exhaustive studles leave no doubt that a pure fat can be ex- = tracted from milk and dried so that its moisture 18 reduced to 1 per cent; that this fat, properly heated and packed, will keep in- _ definitely without refrigeration; that the fat can be mixed with skim milk: powder at temperature below the critical 160 degrees F. to produce: an emulsion. out of which cream and. milk can be made which is indistinguishable from natural. fresh milk and cream, We now have something that can be stored for: future: use. during spring and early summer when milk is. plentiful, something that can be made anywhere, something that will 'keep in tropjeal and sub- tropical climates: and' on ships, that we can. send to Great Britain and later to starving Europe--all without taking up too much. scarce shipping. space.

Should a guest ever rise from the table before the hostess rises? 4, Isn't it improper for a girl to wear her engagement. ring in public before the engagement is announced? 5. Has a host the privilege of telling his guests when to stop drinking? 6. When a man and a girl are dinner dancing, who leads the way from the table to the dance floor? Answers 1. A tip should be given quiet- ly and courteously, without the least display. One who gives a tip in a conspicuous manner in- variably does so to impress those who are watching, 2. No, If the blot is so large that it cannot be neatly erased, one should rewrite the page. 8. No. It is the duty of the hostess to rise first, 4. The engagement ring should not be worn publicly until after the engagement has been announced. 6. No; but he should know the habits of his guests before invit- ing one who is so weak in his habits that he is liable to lose all self-control, as well as self-res- pect. 6.

But one tire which was worn out on the streets of Chicago recently makes news. It was a tire made largely of synthetic rubber, What's more important, it lasted just as long as -the three other tires on the automobile, all made of the real thing, The tires were rotated so as to give each one the same kind of wear, and all of them lasted the normal life of auto- mobile tires--about 43,000 mlles, " "The Chicago Motor Coach Com- pany, which made the experiment, thinks thls may well be the first synthetic tire manufactured by one of the big companies to wear out in commercial use. For it was placed 'on one of the company's inspection cars a year and a halt . ago--months before the public be- came rubber-conscious, As Durable As Rubber The Motor Coach people are convinced now that this particular experimental tire proved just as durable as those made entirely of natural rubber, The synthetic tires being used by the company have some natural rubber in their make up--it is used to bind cotton fab ric in the base, but the tread is entirely of the synthetic material produced from petroleum. Now the company is experiment ing further. Passengers on city busses never dream that. they may be riding on the new petroleum product, but 28 tires with syn. thetic rubber treads are In use on regular routes in "Chicago at the present time. They are being tried out in all parts of the city, Already about 15,000 miles have been traveled by the - synthetio tires. There have been no blow- outs,- no punctures, Drivers say they are easier to handle on wet pavements than the conventional type.
