CHAPEL NOTES Elsewhere in this issue of The Hillfielder you will find the statement of Col. William H. Shields, chief of the supply division at the Ogden Air Technical Service Command, that already the rate of our supply shipments to the Pacific war zones has been stepped up. We now face the biggest job in our history. V-- E day meant that the entire fighting and bombing strength of the Army Air Forces is being concentrated against . the Japanese as quickly as possible. During the first four months of this year a total of 3240 freight cars of AAF supplies and equipment have been handled by this command. This' represented over the amount handled during a gain of the first four months of 1944. And overseas shipments are mounting rapidly, gaining almost 30 per cent from January to April of this year. This increased activity means more problems.' It meanswe will have to get more work done by the help we have available. It means we will have more and more deadlines to meet . . . important deadlines upon which our men overseas are depending. It means that due to changing requirements on the battlefront, certain of our activities' may be reduced, some discontinued, while others gain in emphasis and in the number of personnel required. There is much work for all of us to do. There is so much work that we right now could use the services of another seven or eight hundred employes. In the existing tight labor market, it is difficult to secure additional workers, so we must concentrate on more efficient methods of operation, figuring out. ways and means to get the work done with the loyal employes already on the job. As the army starts redeployment of its strength toward the Pacific and the defeat and ultimate 'unconditional surrender of Japan . . . as the long supply lines from Hill: Field to the Philippines, to China and finally to Japan itself start moving on an ing scale . . .as the freight cars and cargo carrying planes move west in greater and greater numbers . . . our biggest job has started a job we must never nor on slow until the last up vestige of resistance quit has disappeared from the Empire of the Setting Sun.
