newspapers and of our war effort?’ asked a representative of
the Negro press.
“Do you know,” replied Madame Chiang, ‘earnestness
shining in her eyes, “we think of you as Americans. And of
your papers as American newspapers. We do not differentiate
in those things, and we are supremely aware and deeply
thankful for the wonderful work of this country and all its people in the war.” .
“What precisely does China want from America?” queried a young reporter. And quickly the answer came: “‘Precisely what America wants from China—understanding. My
people do not want money nor gifts; . am not here to beg.”
Accepted political procedure has brought complete candor too close to extinction, and reporters ordinarily hear only
what the interviewee wants publicized, whether or not it expresses his deepest convictions. Madame Chiang’s reaction to
their toughest questions carried a whiff of sincerity all too unfamiliar to hard working newsmen and won their real admiration.
ALASKA VACATION
Opening to military use of the road that borders the Pacific from Fairbanks, Alaska to 'the Panama Canal, just as buds
begin to burst and golden poppies fill the fields, brings a genéral awareness that vacation time is near at hand.
Just what that will mean in these times of curtailed transportation is a pretty drab question in some quarters. But here
in California the ban on lengthy pleasure trips is not one of the
most serious aspects of war time. In every community, pleasure spots are near at hand, near enough for the majority to enjoy a brief holiday from war jobs without usurping more than
a fair share of existing transportation facilities.
According to the Office of Defense Transportation, however, approximately 25 per cent of the travel on trains and
busses today is non-essential. Such travel, the ODT declares,
must be curtailed if war workers are to have an occasional respite from yard and factory during the summer. Other suggested means of affording brief vacations to those who need
them most include the staggering of such periods and beginning and ending them in mid-week.
Vacations won't be long this year, or precious war work
hours will be lost. They won't be lengthy, for travel accommodations are strictly limited. Most, we predict, will be spent
in the home environment, with dreams of the days ahead,
when, with the board, white ribbon of highway _ stretching

FISHERMEN’S: AID ASKED
Every fisherman has felt the burning exasperation of being outwitted by a fish. Of using every enticement his gear affords—and being unable to catch one silvery beauty out of a
ereek full.According to word from the San Francisco League for
Service Men, the problem among our boys at distant battle
stations is different. They haven't got the gear.
_ “There isn’t a post in all of Alaska that hasn't asked for
tackle—not rods and reels, but merely lines and hooks.”’ says
General A. Cornell, just returned from Alaskan duty. And the
requests from boys in the South Pacific where waters abound
with fish, are similar.
Old tackle that can be put into condition, or new equipment, is greatly needed says the League, not just to provide
recreation for the boys and to suuplement food supplies—but
to help save lives of men cast adrift in the sea by Axis torpedne en ae
So while you're grooming your fishing outfit for this
year’s expedition (or storing it away ‘till the gas and tire situation improves), pull out all you can spare of lines and hooks
and maybe even a reel, to help a service man. Send it to the
League headquarters in San Francisco, the principal supply
depot for shipments to the Pacific war area.
Some boy in service will help make up for the big one you
didn’t catch.
CALIFORNIA—U. S. SILK CENTER?
It is no secret that bio-chemists, both professional and
amateur, have been coddling the silk worm for years, studying his minutest reaction to California's climate and general
living conditions. Unfortunately, until the swords of war
sheared off Japanese silk exports here, the work.of the local
scientists was generally disregarded.
But now the state assembly, recognizing that items forly made of silk are not nearly so attractive when fabricatcotton or sundry silk substitutes, is taking a hand. It has
