What Is more, the Gorman broadcasters

This trick of the Nazi of encouraging

MEDICAL PROGRESS NEVER ENDS
The steady progress of American
medicine Is making against the dread
bacterial killers. Is illustrated by some
figures concerning typhoid which
were recently published In the Journal
of the American Medical Association.
Last year, this report says, there
was a significant decrease In the
typhoid death toll in the large cities
of the country. In I'JIO, there were
2 I cities svith typhoid dentil rates
exceeding one per hundred thousand
population- and in IS 11, there were
only 11 siteh (hies ,\nd for the 78
cities I.If u hi. h d.iM is available
since I'Mo the Pll death toll was
t ho lowest fin cord. I
What Is trim of typhoid Is true
of a long list of other diseases. Typhus.
tuberculosis, pneuiuoula, yellow
fevor?these are but a few of
the killers which American medicine
Is defeating. In almost every case,
the death rates are declining.
All of us have heard of famous
doctors who have made spectacular |
medical discoveries. Hut doctors
.
J whose names are virtually unknown,
| deserve a great share of the credit!
for medical progress. The tight against
.disease goes on In backwoods com'inanities,
no less than In shining rej
search laboratories with the finest
equipment money can buy. Obscure
I
! general practloners are doing their
part, no less than the most dlstinjgulshed
specialists. In American medicine,
progress never ends?and each
i achievement Is simply a challenge
[to greater achievements yet to come.
America has reason to be proud of
'its doctors.

I Wendell Willkle, Star Reporter
j It Is fortunate that Wendell Wlllkie
took a trip to lOgypt. Thus we, the
j American public, were able to learn
that more than a third of General
: Rommel's first-line tanks were knock- >
ed out In the recent fighting. Apparently
it was a real offensive which
the Anglo-American forces stopped,
jand not a mere raid in force.
| There were many first-line report- [

to break this mws m the home'

Admiral's Famous Words
In the Battle of Mobile Hay, Aligns!
a, 1 Mil. the 1'nlon fleet was warned
tha' the harbor which it was approaching
was honeycombed \n ith
mines. The leading monitor, Tecumseh
struck a mine and was sunk. The
Brooklyn. which was leading the
main column, halted and the ensuing
confusion augured defeat for the
1'iiieti fleet. Admiral Farragut, fitter
recei\ ing the warning of torpedoes,
eried: "Banili the torpedoes. Captain
1 iravion, go ahead! Jmiett. full speed!"

WAR FOR US ON THE
HOME FRONT
The President's warning that the
nation faces "sacrifices of wage Increases,
crop price Increases, profit
Increases, bodily comforts" will be
welcomed by the people of this country
who agreo that "all this Is little
enough for free men to sacrifice In a
world where freedom is Imperilled."
The President insists that the democratic
system is imperilled by evil
men of the West and East who hate
and seek to destroy it. He emphasizes
that we are the beneficiaries and
heirs of our civilization, which serves
labor, "the farmer, tho industrialist,
the teacher and preacher, tho aproned
housewife, the smallest child in tho
cradle."
The background of the present decision
to take drastic action on the
home front should not be misunderstood.
Tho Axis powers, after initial
'successes due to their preparedness
1 for war, are now about to face, for
! the first time, enemies equally prepared
for battle.
The consensus of military experts is
that the Axis connot win a long war
and that the time it will take the
United Nations to defeat tho evil
aggressors depends almost entirely
upon the promptness with which wo
throw our forces into the combat.
With more than half a million
American soldiers overseas and thousands
of others going across the
oceans every month, the people at
homo cannot fall to support their
country and give added strength to
their fighting men.
It Is not enough for us to be willing
to make these so-called "sacrifices",
hut, if our spirit Is noble enough to
deserve success, we should cheerfully
Invite them and resolutely face what
the future brings without fear and
without complaint. ? Orangeburg
Times-Democrat.
Near Casualty
An enlisted man working on the
camp paper at Cnrdnor Field. Calif.,
picked up the phone and dialed his
number. He wanted to talk to the
print shop. At the "hello" from tho
other end. tho soldier-editor bluntly
ordered "Kill that caption we pent
over this morning!" "Yes. sir, I'll
attend to It right away," the voice
acknowledged. In those brief seconds,
the newsman felt he couldn't Just
place the voice, so he followed with,
Say who is this?" "O. this is Private
.lone? at the laboratory at the hospital."
The editor still wipes his brow
when he thinks what might have
happened to some "captain" if he
hadn't straightened out his orders' ?

agriculture, industry
in war and in peace
Cleiufon, Auk. 29 ? Agriculture
needs to think of labor In terms of
u market for Us goods ami to realize
that tho measure of what cuu bo
sold Im limited by the purchasing pow??r
of the laborers, said Dr. Edwin
A. Elliott, of the National Labor HeIntlolls
board, discussing Agriculture
and Industry In a Democracy at War,
speaking at the recent agricultural
leaders' conference here.
A commonalty of Interests, which j
must bo recognised by lK>th groups, |
exists between agriculture and labor,
Dr. Elliott declared. Legislation to
Improve the condition of one will react
in favor of the other, If It Is to 1
be trul) beneficial. Subsidies, such as ;
have been granted In the past to Industry,
shipping, etc.. would aid agriculture
now, and would go ahead to
Improve the general good of all
groups.
Kaniters, as a consumer unit, must
exercise poise, tolerance, and commonsense
In their dealings with labor
and management, realizing that ibej
Interests of all groups are Interwoven j
in the American way of life. Through
a reasonable and democratic process,]
w? shall win the war und the peace.
Declaring that the farmer must help
first to defeat the Axis thoroughly
and see that no negotiated peace Is
agreed to. Dr. Edvard Hatnbo, economist
of Princeton, speaking at the
same conference, said that the furnier,
by helping to maintain national
peace ufter the war, has great a stake
as any other group In building the International
peace of the future.
A transition period of perhaps as
much tis live years should Intervene
between the end of actual lighting und
the making of peace. Dr. Ilanibo
thinks. This would bo a time of reconstruction
and hard international
work, during which the defeated countries
would have to be occupied and
managed by international armies and
police forces, and governed by an international
ruling body. Agriculture
will have a vital role in feeding the
world In this transition period.

Better Marketing
Vital To Egg Drive :
Cleiuaon, Sept. 7.?"Successful egg
production means a lot more than gtvlug
hens all they will eat and leaving
the rout to chance," says 1*. H. Gooding,
poultry speclaliat of the KxtouhIon
Service, declaring that proper
marketIng practlcea are vital to the
aucceaa of the program to meef the
wartime egg requirements.
"Kgga produced to supply tho ueeda
of tho present emergency must be
good eggH when they leave tho fariu
und good eggs when they reach tho
consumer, and this makes tho use of
proper handling for market doubly
important.
"With proper leuding and handling,
every hou normally produces a good
ogg," Mr. flooding continues, "but tho
egg can become bad very soon If
it Is not properly cared for."
Mr. Gooding and other poultry exports
maintain that production of
quality eggs begins with producing
infertile eggs, keeping nests clean,
collecting eggs at least three times
daily, cooling them properly, packing
in clean containers, and marketing
frequently. The farmer who noglects
these important practices is sabotaging
his own enterprise. Infertile ? ggs
keep best under all conditions and are
more desirable for food purposes
One egg out of every seven produced
In 19-12 will go to a drying plant
to be made into egg powder for use
by our armed forces on far-flung
battle fronts and by our Allies. The
quantity required thus will exceed
200 million pounds. This alone moans
the use of at least 600 million dozen
eggs. In addition there are demands
for fresh shell eggs by the armed
forces stationed at home and by the
greatly Increased domestic market.
Silk From Spider-Webs
(Robert E. Pike In Our Dumb
Animals)
Outside of "trade" circles, It is
not very well known that silk, taken
from spiders, Is extensively used both
in civilian and ''defense" work?especially
on the lenses of precision instruments,
such as bomb and torpedo
sights, camera vlew-flnders, telescopic
gun-sights, anti-aircraft sights, theodolites,
and surveyor's levels.
Spider silk, not more than .0001
of an Inch In diameter Is stronger
than steel wire of the same size, and
is elastic so that it remains taut and
straight in the instrument. The product
for ordinary house-spiders Is not
usable, hs it Is too coarse. The best
silk comes from tho weavers of orbwebs
(flat webs of wheel-like design).
Different spider-farmers have different
ways of extracting the thread
from the spider's body, but the general
procedure is to stimulate the
creature's nipple-like "spinneret" (a
cocoon-shaped organ with which the
arachnid spins Its web) to start the
thread coining, which is then wound
onto a small flat wooden or metal
reel, or U-shaped instrument, great
cafe being taken that the strands do
not overlap.
Such silk is worth ten cents per
foot, and one spider may emit as
much as 100 feet In the course of an
hour, hofore the supply is exhausted.
After the operation, the spider is very
hungry, and must be fed.
Although it would tako the combined
daily output of some 6,000
spiders to manufacture one silk dress,
there is no insurmountable reason
that suitable insects may not be raised
commercially, and so provide us with
all the silk we need. Nevertheless,
only one man, a Frenchman named
Bon, early In the 18th century, has
ever tried to make cloth from spider,
silk. He manufactured smooth fray
stockings and gloves that royalty
was proud to wear, and which were
said to be superior to ordinary ellfc
in both looks and durability. It seemi
that here Is an opportunity for some
enterprising Yankee.
