Many - tides have risen in the , fjdrdsr since that cold dawn when ' the. Nazis and the Quislings drove their already bloody dagger into the backs of the Norwegians who :had r escaped World War I and somehow believed, they'd piss this one too. ; .Quisling and Hitler thought it was easy. Americans still a long way from Pearl Harbor -thought it was: a. little too easy. ' The British and French thought they might do something about it, got a handful of troops there in time to start getting get-ting 'them out again. Well, two years have gone by, and how easy does it look to you Vidkun Quisling? Even with Hitler's best horror mer-' mer-' chants backing you up, you have only 32,000 members in your party oust 1 per cent of Norway's population. popu-lation. The rest of them; seek your life. The day Hitler falls you die. Perhaps Per-haps sooner. YoiSr treason wasn't even smart. . ' - And how are things for you, Hitler? Hit-ler? You have stolen everything you could lay hands on. You have slaughtered hundreds who resisted; thrown thousands into concentration camps". You have brought them all- misery. . But that misery is a puny thing compared to the will for vengeance that will' not be denied. Conquered? Ask Adolf. Americans: can you say you are fighting as well as Norway? If you can answer .yes, the war is won, for the. power. is. with you. And Britain? Have you anything but praise for the Norse sailors and ships that bring you oil and weapons weap-ons and ;!ood that you may continue con-tinue the fight, for the people in The Norway who cheer your bombings against - their homeland and pray nightly that you will invade? And France? Norway makes your cringing collaborators look even worse. If your France had resisted re-sisted as valiantly as Norway, Hitler Hit-ler today would be a lot farther down the road to defeat. Two years after their tiny army was beaten, the bravery of these tough Norwegians shines like the northern lights, flashing a. signal around $ the world that Hitler can never win. If that sounds poetic, all right. Poets for centuries will sing of these men, women and children. Conquered? Why the Norwegians Norweg-ians have just begun to fightl End After covering 1,730,000 miles and wearing 7270 pairs of shoes, the , pickets are gone from in front of the Brass Rail restaurant in New York City. A fair share of the world was at peace, the third term was a bigger problem "than Hitler, tires were just something cars rolled on, Germany and Poland were signing a non-aggression pact, and Tommy Manville had been married only four times when the waiters, chefs, and other help walked out of the restaurant on Jan. 18, 1939, and started picketing over the right to hire and fire. In three years the picket line took its place beside Radio City, the Empire Em-pire State, chorus girls, and gossip columnists. By and large it was more diverting than destructive. Occasionally Oc-casionally there was a ruckus, as when the cops dumped a birthday cake on the sidewalk on the iOOOth day. But few heads were bashed. Now it has been settled. Apparently there is no moral. The strike ended on All Fools' Day. Well, maybe there's your moral. Fixe to Fight Fire Washi ng to n Me r r y-G o-Roun d & Daily Picture of What's Going On In National Affairs By Drew Faaraoa aaa Hatter m. Aiiaa WASHINGTON Hottest home front problem prob-lem furrowing inner circle, brows is the question ques-tion of freezing wages, prices and profits. With several key pay-increase demands . pending before the. War Labor Board, the AFL and CIO are vehemently opposed to a wage blanket. They contend that with war contractors con-tractors making huge profits on one hand and living costs rising steadily on the other, workers are entitled to more pay. Certain farm and business elements also have voiced strong opposition to " the freezing freez-ing proposal on various grounds. Chief freezing advocate in the inner circle is hard-boiled Price Administrator Leon Henderson, Hen-derson, to whom the menace of disastrous Inflation In-flation is an ever-present - nightmares Henderson's Hen-derson's insistence on wage controls has brought down on 'his head bitter labor recriminations. But he is sticking to his guns and, at a secret session of the entire War Labor Board, hammered home his argument with a barrage of sizzling statistics. These are the principal points-made by Henderson: 1. That henceforth 50 to 60 per cent of wage increases will come out of the U. S. Treasury that is, tax revenue and not out of corporation profits as contended fcy the AFL and JCIO. 2. That an increase of 15 per cent in basic wage .rates if extended throughout industry in-dustry would have "disastrous'' effect on the cost of living. 3. That average industrial hourly earnings earn-ings since September, 1039, the start of the war, have risen twice as much as the cost of living. ' That weekly earnings have risen three times as much Further, that in December, Decem-ber, 1941, real hourly earnings were 11 per cent above the September. 1939, level and real weekly earnings 25 per cent higher. 4. That the principle of adjusting wages to ' living costs must be limited to workers receiving re-ceiving "substandard" pay. The spread between be-tween them and the better organized and better paid workers must be reduced; otherwise, other-wise, Henderson held, the latter will get an "even bigger piece of the' pie." Note: Henderson's legal aides maintain that" under the Price Control Act, the War Labor Board is required to consult with him before granting a pay increase. The Board does not have to accept his recommendations, but the lawyers say the Board must get Henderson's Hen-derson's views. . PRESCIENT : Robert Noble, grandstanding Los Angeles Fascist arrested on sedition charges, either has a sense of . humor or he is prescient. When Noble registered, in . the" February 16, draft he gave the following answer to the question where mail would always be sure to reach him - - "Co R.B. Hood,, special agent In charge FBI. Los Angeles." - DISCOURAGEMENT IN PHILIPPINES Those who have talked with High Commissioner Com-missioner Francis B. Sayre since his return from . the Philippines. , get- the Impression that the American soldiers fighting on Bataan may never get out alive. Sayre doesn't say this in so many words, but his other comments add up to this conclusion. con-clusion. Sayre is politely scornful of the stories that "we have already won the battle of the Pacific supply routes." He points out that the end of our supply routes southern Australian Aus-tralian ports is 4,000 miles from Manila. There's a "tremendous task" of getting supplies to Australia in the first place, Sayre says. Then there's the difficulty of transportation trans-portation by rail across a continent as large as the United States, and after that a still more difficult shipping problem across the barrier bar-rier of the Japanese-occupied Netherlands East Indies. While this tedious effort is going on, the men in Corregidor are "living like rats underground," under-ground," in a place which the Japanese could take if they cared to pay the price. If they don't, they merely have to sit at the threshold, enjoying command of both air and sea, and wait for the American soldiers to starve. The most discouraging element is that the men on Bataan 'have only limited supplies, and when those supplies are gone, they must face, not one enemy but two the Japs and starvation. starva-tion. ENOUGH NEWS Razor-tongued Secretary Harold Ickes doesn't like the press and the press generally reciprocates this dislike. So It was with much surprise that the House Appropriations Committee Com-mittee noted a $100 increase for the purchase of newspapers in Ickes' new budget. "Do you think that it is necessary at this time?" demanded Representative Robert Rich, Pennsylvania New Deal hater. "That item is for the power division," broke in Assistant Secretary of Interior Ebert K. Burlew. "Yes, the power division wanted that," grinned Ickes. "I didn't ask for the money. Heaven knows, I don't want to read any more newspapers." MERRY-GO-ROUND Philippine Commissioner J. M. ("Mike") Elizalde says it's now or never for the Japs on Bataan Peninsula. If they don't capture Corregidor tnjf ore the wet season begins next month, rain and typhoons will throw their military machine completely out of gear .... Leon Henderson and Walter Tim mis were both in Swarthmore College at the same time. Today, To-day, both are Washington officials,, but on opposite sides of the fence. Henderson is a relentless all-outer, while Tim mis, head of WPB's plumbing and heating branch, is a "business as usual" advocate. . . .

We are not in favor of curb service. Before the city went into the garbage business we paid 65 cents per month, for twice a week pickup, pick-up, now we pay 80 and the service is not as good. If the city can't do the job let's give it back to the people who used to do it. , A CITIZEN. Delaware County Halts All Unemployment Relief WILMINGTON, Del.. (U.D - After April 1, all employables in New Castle county will have to go to work or else. The Old Age Welfare Commis sion announced that, effective on that date, direct 'unemployment relief will be granted only to those unable to work because of physical defects. Relief grants have been given to all jobless for the past 13 years, regardless of the reason for their unemployment. "By PETER EDSON ' Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 10 This 1 100 million congressional appropriation appro-priation to aid small business is only the beginning. , As "the Murray bill," it passed the Senate 81 to 0, which sounds a little bit like Notre Dame vs. Vassar, and it probably will go through the House Just as decisively decis-ively after the Easter recess for everyone loves small businessmen in an election year. " But' don't think for a minute this will solve the problem of small business in wartime. A hundred million dollars dol-lars for this purpose is just . a teaser. The Reconstruction Finance Corporation has already loaned about $8 billion or $9 billion to big business for war production. The 1100 million for email business busi-ness may last two weeks or six months, depending on how the act is administered. But if the experiment ex-periment works, the champions of small business will be back for more and they'll geV it. After all, what's $100 million? It's the cost of only a couple of cruisers. The country will probably lose a couple-of cruisers before the war is over, and when a cruiser is lost, it's lost forever. If the cost of a couple of cruisers or 2Q cruisers will save American email business for use after the war is over, it will be saved, even though the entire $100 million or two or 20 times $100 million is lost In the process. As it stands now, this bill won't help very many small businesses very much. There is no aid here, no hope of. help for retailers, wholesalers, distributors, service businesses, filling stations, auto dealers, or the makers of goods for civilian consumption. They simply aren't In this picture, no matter how much their business may have been hit by war. MORE INITIALS ' This bill will help perhaps no exclusively, but predominately the 45,000 smally metal working: manufacturers out of the total of 169,000 manufacturers listed by the 1939 census as having fewer than 100 employes. Even limiting the initial in-itial $100 million to the 45,000 small manufacturers, it won't go very far about $2,222.22 on the average. That wouldn't much more than build the garage and buy the truck to haul the goods away if there was a truck to buy. Of course, a lojt of these small manufacturers won't need help. The methods by which he who gets helped from this government Smaller War Plants Corporation can't yet be determined, for after an this bill must pass ; the House and be signed by the President befsre it is law. It, can be assumed as-sumed that a brand-new organization organiza-tion won't have to be set up. The bill provides for appointment of a special deputy and a five-man board of directors by War Production Produc-tion Chief 'Donald M. Nelson. Under Un-der that, the Contract Distribution Distribu-tion Branch of WPB with more than 130 local offices scattered about the country, could be taken over by SWPC call it "Sweet-peace" "Sweet-peace" if that will help the name stick in your mind the Small War Plants Corporation, and these local offices would now be authorized author-ized to do the Job. It wouldn't be necessary, for the 45,000 smaller manufacturers, to come traipsing into Washing-ton to get their loans. The loans will be brought to the smaller manufacturers, instead. PRIME CONTRACTOR In effect, SWPC would become a prime contractor. Its first job would be organization of an Inventory In-ventory of all machine capacity. Suppose there were an item wanted want-ed like rolling field kitchens. In a given area there might be a stove works, a Wagon factory, a pot and pan manufacturer and a sheet metal works. Each of these could make the bit and pieces of a rolling kitchen. But there might be lacking facilities for assembling. as-sembling. SWPC would be authorized auth-orized to make a loan for erection of a new plant, extension of an old one. purchase pf . missing links of machinery to establish a pooling pool-ing operation for doing the job. And it would let the contract to the pool, with subcontracts to the parts makers. This is taking care of the "conversion "con-version of small business enterprises enter-prises to war production," which was the purpose of the present bill. Small businesses which can't be converted to war production will have to wait For another bill to relieve their aches and pains. UNCLE EF i There's one sure way of winning this war, and that's for everybody to develop a d e t ermination to win it instead of just wishing or believing that the Russians wUI win it for us, or relaxing after reading c i rcumstantial stories about how bad off our enemies are. Edgemont PROJECT READY SPANISH FORK Mayor John E. Booth has received word that WPA cemetery beautification project pro-ject will definitely commence work Tuesday morning, April 14. He is assured also that a sufficient force of workers will be on hand to complete the project of cemetery ceme-tery beautification before Memorial Memo-rial day. This will include the planting of lawns on the plots, putting in street curbings and grading the driveways. Water pipes have already been laid and water will soon be available for watering the lawns.

The colonel of ru-rales ru-rales bowed. "Good man! How did you do it?" "Very easily. I took advantage of the ebb tide to float down here in a small fast launch, its engine still. I guided it to the eastern shore of this island the side opposite op-posite from the guards' quarters end drew its nose up on the beach unseen and unheard. If you'll go to your rooms and get the fewest things you need" They were out of the room before be-fore he had finished. In a minute, Kay and Allan were back. The Frenchman was not. Escobar looked at his watch and fidgeted. "The moon is coming up right now," he said with a frown. "Devil take the fellow, is he packing pack-ing a trunk? Where is he?" The answer came with awful clarity. It came in a series of staccato explosions from the eastern east-ern shore as a gasoline engine was cranked into life. Escobar suddenly, exploded, too, as if in sympathy. . "My launch!" he cried. That son of a female frog 1" v He dashed from the house and sprinted in the direction of the shore, leaving a trail of sulphurous sulphur-ous Spanish in his wake. Allan and Kay, speechless from disappointment, disap-pointment, followed more slowly. Escobar when they overtook him was standing on the shore looking at a man in a launch. De Fon-tanelle Fon-tanelle had shut off the engine ard was drifting in a patch of moonlight 50 yards out. He waved to them jauntily. "So sorry," he called. "It is my duty, you see, to prevent " any prisoners from escaping! My sympathy sym-pathy and good night." . . " , He put his boat in motion, heading head-ing for the main island. Escobar recovered his poise with an effort the others could almost feeL , "So! As you Americans would say, we now have M de Fonta-nelle's Fonta-nelle's numeral! Not a very good friend,' senorita, but a member of the Japanese company placed on this island to spy on you." "I just can't believe it!" said Kay miserably. . . "He was he seemed so nice!, . "Nobody is what he seems any more," commented Escobar, playing play-ing his favorite -theme. "Which reminds me, Senor Steele: I have no wish to. pry into your affairs too deeply, but were you by any chance , depending on Sun Su to get you out ol . this r dilemma?" "Well yes. Frankly, I was." "In that case I have bad news for you. Sun Su's hotel was burned to the ground two nights after you left. Apparently by a gang of bandits ban-dits who have since vanished. Sun Su himself was shot and killed while fleeting the building." "Holy crow!" Allan Selected a smooth boulder and sat on it, his knees a trifle shaky. "Bandits! Who were they, Escobar?" "Ah, who shall say? At all events, I'll miss Sun Su. He was just a plain, old-fashioned crook and cutthroat. He was chief of a smuggling ring probably killed by confederates whom he double-crossed. double-crossed. .Also, he was on the payroll pay-roll of this Japanese fishing company, com-pany, in just what capacity I don't know." "It was his job to catch suckers," suck-ers," said Allan, wincing. SEVERAL things were clear to him now. Sun Su had tipped oft the Japs as to where they could trap him on a pine-topped hill. Sun Su had similarly betrayed Harry Bishop to the enemy. Sun Su had made no difficulty, naturally, nat-urally, when his good friend Asia had asked him for Allan's belong-, ings. Sun Su had sold himself to certain parties in San Diego as a trustworthy agent and wouldn't the chief be wild when he learned the truth! Sun Su, in short, had been a consummate, artful crook. "Your line of communication to the rear would appear to be cut," mused Escobar. "Let us hope nothing has happened to mine. "You recall a certain rough-looking rough-looking fellow you once observed at my heels?" "Gosh! You mean?" " "He was following me, not to make trouble, but to help me if I got into any. Welli I'm in trouble trou-ble now, and Diego knows it, so I am sure he is carrying out orders or-ders I gave him to meet just this emergency." "Thank goodness!" muttered Allan, Al-lan, and so did Kay. "Colonel, I've a confession to make and an apology. Until now, I've been half suspecting you of of playing ball with Asia and these Japs! Sorry!" "You naturally would, judging me by appearances," replied the officer quite cheerfully. "Even some old friends of mine you met them, senor, the day you ay-rived ay-rived in San Saba! were misled into believing me a traitor to my country; they considered . it their patriotic duty to kill me, if possible. pos-sible. I decided then to enlighten them quietly, as I'll now enlighten you and this young lady. , "I am a colonel of the rurales, it is true; but I have also the honor to be a member -of the Mexican secret service." "I've just been suspecting that, too." muttered Allan. . "My government's interest was aroused by this Japanese cannery. We feared some infraction of our neutrality. I undertook an investigation in-vestigation so discreet and so indirect in-direct that it meant putting myself my-self in a very bad light. I selected se-lected the lovely Senorita Asia for my point of 'attack, I soon convinced her I was a victim of her charms." "She certainly has 'em!" mattered mat-tered Kay sotto voce. "Yes, indeed! I won her confidence con-fidence by giving her secret documents docu-ments from our military files old ones and valueless, but she has not found that out yet I established estab-lished myself so securely in her trust that finally, only today, I was invited to visit the cannery. In a few days more I think my mission would have been successfully success-fully completed. Then . X looked over here, saw another-charming lady doing tricks with a window shaderand here, alas, I ami In the soup, as, you say it" . "Tough," commisserated Allan. "I know just how you feel, being in it myself. Say just who and what is our friend Miss Minor?" "She is who she claims to be. As for what, I've learned she is an international spy, a sworn, relentless re-lentless enemy of England, and as big a crook in her own line as the late Sun Su was in his." "Oh!" gasped Kay. . "A spy! Will you will you shoot her?" "I suppose we will have to eventually. Why not?" The officer caressed his mustache gently. . . ' j - m UTTS simply extraordinary" A said Colonel Escobar. It was three days later, in the afternoon, and he was talking with Allan and Kay Sargent in the living room. Kay had ' Steele's field glasses in her hand.. "Let me repeat: re-peat: You saw .De Fontanelle walking the shore of the main island; you saw a boy give hirt what looked like " a cablegram . you saw De Fontanelle open It read it, iand display elation. I think you said elation?" ' "Yes. I could, see his face quite plainly through these glasses. He was smiling, and he threw a kiss to heaven. Just why are you surprised, sur-prised, Colonel? He received some good news,. I suppose.. i "Senorita, I have a transcript of that cable in my pocket at this moment It is a message to Pierre de Fontanelle - telling him his mother died, suddenly last week in Paris.
