seamen Nevada City Nugget 305 Broad Street. Phone 36, : A Legal Newspaper, as defined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City. iH Sie fl te dor and 1. -.-Published Semi-Weekly, Monday and Ihu:sduy at Nevada City, California, and entered as ms matter of the second class in the postofPice at Nevada City under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. ; SUBSCRIPTION RATES One year (In Advance) One Month INGENUITY—AND GUNS If there is one weapon our forces have had in abundance to help balance off the supeior quality and quantity of enemy equipment, training and crafty planning, in the first stages of the war, that weapon is ingenuity. It has been exhibited on the battlefields times home fields a year or so ago while their Axis adversaries were rounding out their life-long training in following orders and patterns, never to think for themselves. Most recent evidence-of the weapon and how it works,-is the disclosure of how this Pacific Coast was spared a Jap attack last June by the construction of Alaskan bomber fields where no fields had been before, where none were expected. according to the pattern—and precisely under the Jap's watchful eyes. oe Ingenuity has sayed the day, and the battle, more times than an arrogant enemy would care tq believe, so far in this war. But even ingenuity needs backing up with guns and ammunition. Right now, General MacArthur needs planes in the South Pacific battle area. He needs them as desperately as he needed them at Bataan—so desperately that he has sent a com mission of his own officers to Washington to explain it all to congress and the president. Perhaps it is significant that the people whose sons are fgihting under him have the utmost confidence in MacArthur. _ They believe he and his men have accomplished much toward ' dicerting the Jap and annihilating him, with pitifully little to do it with. His request should be granted, and at once, for even the greatest generals can’t operate forever on expedience, makeshift and ingenuity unfortified somewhat by material equipment. THAT $25,000 SALARY LIMIT Repeal of the $25,000 salary limit, which has been voted by the senate after similar action by the house will probably not affect many of us directly, and it might appear at first glance that the controversy is another instance of much ado about nothing. But even though most of us haven't achieved such astronomical earnings, and are unduly concerned about those who have, the principle of putting a definite limit on wht a man can earn by government directive, may well disturb us. If we can be told that we can’t earn over $25,000, we can also be told that we can't earn over $5,000 or $2.000, or any other sum that the boys in Washington may decide upon. And when that happens the right of free enterprise in a free America will have gone out the window. wer ee WE MUST HURRY We may be stirred by indignation at the bungling in Washington which has disrupted our production and distribution machinery; we may rebel at attempts of some of our chosen officials to stampede us into changing our form of government while we are at war. Or we may be 100 per cent New Deal Democrats, infuriated at congress for not taking the president’s program, and resentful of all who oppose his stand on either domestic of foreign issues. But whatever our policies, we are all Americans—and the reports from both Europe and the Pacific indicate that time is not on our side, as we may have thought, but on that of our enemies. We have a war to win— and we desperately need to get at the job of winning it! Titler, with his air force badly depleted by the Russian campaign, is fighting for time to rebuild it. If we allow him that time, millions of men will die because of it. Japan is fighting for time to digest the loot of Hongkong, Malaya, Singapore and the Dutch East Indies. Given that time, the Japs will have the oil and the other natural resources to go on —and it will take years and many American lives, to beat them. In short, we must hurry, if our boys are to be saved and if we are to be spared years of bloodshed. There's no politics about that. We have a job to do, a vital job that transcends all political differences. And the way to do it, quickly and effectively, is to stay at our jobs and keep the wheels of production constantly moving. We have a right to disagree with our ofi rey om INCREASED PRODUCTION GREEN RIVER, Iil., (Special CFI photo to Nevada City Nugget) from Oliff Lant—Jack Mahistedt has a very practical answer to the government's eal for increased production of eggs to supply the firmed forces and lend_—Jease requirements, as well as the domestic market.

But we can’t afford to let internal disagreements interfere with our work for the men we have sent overseas to fight for us. We have a job to do—and we must hurry. Let’s rememberit! POLITICALLY SPEAKING By RALPH H. TAYLOR With American fighting men reaching the combat areas in ever increasing numbers, and with American food and equipment bolstering the supply lines of the United Nations, we are starting to win battles on the war front, instead of being forced to fight bitter, defensive actions against superior numbers and superior armament as we did during the. first year of the war. But we have still only begun to fight—-and we now seem to be losing battles on the Washington front and the home front which will eventually imperil the whole war effort unless we get at the root of the difficulty and start doing as good a job; at home as our troops are doing in the field. Bureaucratic bungling and ‘‘polities as usual’’ have been blamed for much of the chaos and confusion in our home economy, but there is a third factor of at least equal importance in fomenting dissension and disunit and in disrupting the nation at a time when it desperately needs to stand united against the common enemy. That is the constant and increasingly brazen attempt on_ the part of some of the men in high places in Washington to use the war as an excuse and a tool for forcing a change in our American form of government. Vice President Wallace, whose philosophy inclines more and moe toward national socialism, has been a leading spokesman for this group of politicians and social reformers. In one of his recent speeches, Mr. Wallace issued a somewhat ambiguous warning that we must not ‘‘doubleeross’’ the Soviet government, The American public, knowing that we have been pouring supplies into Russia at-a tremendous rate, even at the cost of delaying badly-needed planes, tanks and other equipment to Gen. MacArthur’s forces in the Pacific, and to our fighting men on _ other fronts, is still perplexed as to just what Wallace meant, because this country has never double crossed an ally and isn’t likely to begin doing it now. But if more recent utterances of Wallace are studied carefully it appears that what the vice president was trying to say was that we will “double cross’? the Soviet unless we bring our own form of governmen more nearly into accord with the Rus sian form, so that we can work more happily with Russia in “the new world order.’’ If--that be the price of enjoying Russia’s complete confidence, as Wal lace infers, then this war will have certainly cost us dearly. We have not asked Russia to change her form of government because she is fighting on our side—and the people of America are beginning to wonder about a vice president of the United States]. who spends his time, as he did in a recent broadcast, declaring: ‘The people’s revolution is on the march, and the devil and all his angels cannot prevail against it.’”’ The American people thought they had engaged to fight a war—not a revolution—and most of them still think ‘so, Wallace to the contrary, notwithstanding. Evidencing the same trend toward change in its form of government while American boys are away fighting to defend the present system, and while most of the people at home are giving their undivided attention to winning the war, was the recent report of the National Resources Planning Board, released by President (Roosevelt. , This report, after recommending a greatly expanded social security system allegedly designed to _ protect every citizen from the cradle to the grave, lished by the government becoming a “partner” in many: forms of business and industry. Included were such strategic industries as the railroads. shipbuilding, aircraft, aluminum, magnesium, etc. Labor, too, was rec-. ommended for ‘‘a share in management’ of business. Just what share the men who owned_ the _ business would have was not made clear. Fortunately, congress has shown little inclination to accept the superstate program proposed by the National Resources Planning Board; in fact it has recently discontinued the board’s appropriation for its mainten ence and the report just issued may be its last. Fortunately too, the new congress seems determined to resist other attempts to engineer a social revolution at home . while ‘we are fighting a war abroad.
