the restrction on consumer goods, together with the enormous
‘POSTWAR MARKET
What will happen’ to business after the war? That aves
tion, naturally is being carefully pondered these days by. business executives of all sorts—-whether thev be engaged in production, firancine. merch
other many functions of modern industry.
At the ovteet of the wer, the notular idea seerned-to be
; . . . 1
that nothine but depressien could fallow the terrible dislocandisine, advertising, of any 0: ENS a
tion of worldwide conflict.
Recently, however. an increasing number of realistic students of economic matters are coming to the view that a great
new day of general’and well distributed prosperity will dawn
with the peace that follows this war.
One clear and concise analysis along this line was made
recently by a high placed Westinghouse executive, Bonnell .
W. Clark, who put it like this:
The present concentration on armament production, and
increase in purchasing power, are creating a strong vacuum
which can only be satisfied by post-war production, sale and
distribution of needed consumer articles.
Payrolls will therefore be kept large and constant, and in
turn they will be invested in goods. A new mass market is
being formed. which can only be satisfied with mass production on a larger scale than before.
On obvious corollary is that manufacturers who now are
doing only one job—producing the todls of war—and hav«
only one customer—the government—must keep the lifeblood of business flowing through advertising.
They cannot afford to let the people forget or ignore the
industrial and merchandising organizations which are in evistence now, but which are temporarily being put on the shelf
because of civilian curtailment in the war.
These are the organizations that can and must bridge the
transition between wartime and peacetime economy, and if:
they should fail to do it, then the dark picture that many economists thought they saw at the outbreak of the war might
yet become reality.
So advertising today is not so much a sales service, or a
means of persuading the public to buy a product now, as it is
a far-sighted and constructive means of maintaining this bridge’
from an artificial wartime prosperity to a genuine civiliar
prosperity in the period that follows. 5.

: "JUST WONDERIN’ ~° ®
T wonder about Ham and Eggs—.
I thought the thing was down and out,
But now it’s cooking up again,
Of that there is no shade of doubt;
And as its leaders strive once more
To get the tax payers in a jam,
I ask in all sercerity,
Which is the Egg and which the Ham?
I wonder at the remarkable powers of recrudescence displayed by that
political ignis fatuus, Ham and Eggs.’ Blown aiway by the strong winds of
reason, it comes flitting back at stated intervals of time, to be loudly acclaimed by those who are seemingly seeking self aggrandizement at the
expense of too too, credulous voters. To those voters one can only say,—
**Beware!”’
Certain proponents of the Ham and Eggs fantasy may succeed in get-’
ting their names upon the November ballot. If they do, ‘it is to be hoped
that they will be overwhelmingly defeated that California can thankfully
say, ‘thank God, an’ there’s an’ end o’ that.”
For one thing we may be grateful, that is I hope we may, the single
tax will be a dead issue and no will be talking of, “unearned increment,”’
for some time to come. j
I wonder if there are any strict rules and regulations governing the
er mii”
‘ rights and privileges of free speech. There should be, for many times free
speech degenerates into free screech and becomes annoying.
Words are protent for good or ill—perhaps more so now than at any
previous period of world history and loyal Americans, even those in high
places, will place a guard upon their lips.
Idle words are better left unspoken. After all, England will deal with
the Indian situation and military experts will determine the time and place
flor the opening of a second front. Of course, we have opinions and are at
liberty to express them, but let us take care that our words are not following the pattern of German propaganda, that they do not offend the
allies who are fighting with us and that they do not make sweet music in
the ears of Adolph Schicklegruber. :
I wonder if Hitler’s boasted invincibility hasn’t been pretty thoroughly debunked. Certainly, he is still “going strong.”” hut no stupid pevson is
invincible and Hitler is a man of collossal stupidities. From his first apbsurd assumptions of racial superiority—claims at which the most amateurish anthropologists laughed in derision, down to the present time he has
been guilty_of one folly after another.
Stupidly he commits, or causes to be committed unspeakable atrocities in the expectation of winning adherents to his new order, and now
with equal stupidity he attacks Brazil. Surely Schicklegruber does not need
another enemy, but he has made one and of course he will stupidly make
others. Some day his teniple of hatred will crash down upon. him and history will brand him as the most foolish fool of this or any other age.
Uncle Silas says; “One good thing about these political campaigns,
when they are over, we realize what a number of men of ‘outstanding
ability and integrity’ we are blessed with.”—-A.Merriam Conner.
Trust in the Lord with all thine; While reason is puzzling about the
heart; and lean not unto thine own. mystery, faith is turning it into her
understanding. In all thy ways ac-. daily bread and feeding on it thankknowledge him; and he shall direct. fully in her heart of hearts.—Fredthy paths.—Proverbs 3:5, 6. erick D. Huntington.

NEWS IN RHYME .
Over KJBS Daily at 12:20 P. M.
By Harley M. Leete, Jr.
Here's an islander
Who arrived here just the other day
An unwilling stowaway—Tatoa,
Whose homeland is in sweet Samoa,
Was_counting cargo, fell asleep,
‘And woke. upon the briny deep.
He says in Pago Pago there,
The men are tsrong, the lasses fair.
The blackout can’t shut off the
moon,
That sparkles bright on sofe lagoon.
When he’ll get home, he doesn’t
know,
But as soon as possible, ulans to go,
He wanted, once, to see the world—
The flags of many lands unfurled.
Rui this bright brown youth of
eighteen years,
Doesn't care for strangers ways and
fears,
As a matter of fact, this Samoan
lad,
Has got homesickness—got it bad.
He’s arranged to sail on an early
ship,
And, as sailor, make that homeward
trip.
He’ll earn his way, though
long,
it be
And greet his family, well and
strong.
He longs to feel the tropic sun,
And have his lonely visit done.
He longs to sit ‘neath tropic palms,
Far away from talk of war and
bombs.
Samoa, he, says, isn’t much aware-—
Of the war—for things are
peaceful there.
Though since December, white
warriors have come,
And changed the island’s feelings
some.
The islanders love to bask and
swim,
And the western spirit, quick and
grim,
. Makes little impression on native
folk,
Though they hate and fear the
Nipponese yoke.
But Tatoa is happy, now he has
planned,
A quick return to a sunnier land.
We hope his ship meets no
barrage,
To Tatoa of Samoa—a bon voyage!
Leaves For Canada—
Theodore Kohler, Jr., who Tuesday was elected as public administrator of Nevada County, left Saturday for a vacation trip through the
Pacifie Northwest and in Canada.

THEY FEED THE
FURNACES of WAR
Natural Gas Workers
Fight, too, for Victory
W HEN PEARL HARBOR plunged the United States
into war, this utility company was prepared. No mobilization orders were necessary.
Our men, already working at full capacity, were ready.
And among these non-military forces, trained by years of
experience, one mighty important division is composed of
the Gas Workers. They are men from many skilled crafts—
engineers, chemists, gas technicians, compressor operators,
pipe fitters and layers, trench machine drivers.
Their job is a big one. They must maintain a system of
thousands of miles of transmission and distribution pipe
lines, through which natural gas from the oil and gas
fields of Central and Northern California is carried. They
must deliver a constant flow of gas to the war plants in
this extensive territory ——to the steel furnaces, the shipyards, the cement plants, the shops and factories where
production requires efficient heat.
Millions of cubic feet also must be supplied for the
making of metallic magnesium. At the same time, the Gas
Workers must maintain service to the cooking ranges and
the heaters of 600,000 homes and supply the other fuel
~ needs of some 3,000,000 people.
They are doing all this, laboring day and night, worthily
carrying their share of the fight for Victory.
