1 IN HOSPITAL
Baby Mary Elizabeth Uerling,
'daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Darl
errling was admitted to the hos-
' pital last week for medical .care.
IN 1935, a far-sighted legislature gave life to the
Washington Wine industry and hope to the fruit
growers of our state. That year, only 100,000 pounds
of Washington fruit was made into wine.
Inseven years, more than 100 million pounds of
Washington fruit has been consumed by this new
group of customers, and fruit growers will sell prof-
itably 30 million more pounds to Washingtonwineries
in 1943. The growth of the wine industry of our state
will continue to balance the scales in favor of Wash«
ington fruits, for, by that legislative act of 1935,
Washington Wines must be made exclusively from
fruits grown within our state.

THE QUESTION OF WASTED MANPOWER
The order of War Manpower McNutt directing all men
of draft age, from 18 to 37 years, to quit their jobs in
non-essential work and get into war jobs, should open
the entire question of the best disposition of the nation’s
manpower, and forces examination of all the waste and
missuse of eligible men, including the padding of men in
comfy jobs in Washington and. in some of the war indus—

SHELTON-MASON COUNTY» JOURNAL
Fir Log Supply
Washington, D. C.—F. H. Brun-
dage, western log and lumber-“ad—
ministrator, was directed by the
war production board last week
to take, active control over the
cutting of Douglas fir lumber and
to allocate logs wherever neces-
sary,
tion of war-essential types of Pa—
cific coast lumber.
Production of certain construc—
tion-type lumber, such as dimen-
sions, uppers and siding, will have
to be curtailed, WPB said, to in- v
crease the supply of ship decking
and planking, pontoon and air-
craft lumber and structural stress
timbers.
The directive was
cause bad weather in the Pacific
issued be-
tr’ies where men are walking over each other, or doing usc- } Northwest
has reduced the antici_
less things.
This should bring up the major question of an army
of more than ten million men in service, along with' those
in government detail work, and how the nation’s produc-
tiveness can be maintained to feed the men in service and
on lend-lease, and leave something at home for the civilian
population. The question of hours of work should also
be considered before drafting all the able-bodied men, and
the straight hours increased, but with some leeway for
those living afar from their jobs and who are forced to
spend two or more extra hours dailv to and from home.
Women are to some extent easing up the situation in
war industry, and a million or two men could be cut from
the government payrolls and either put in war industry
or back to the farms where there is equally urgent need.
There are other troublesome questions connected with a
general draft of manpower into war industry, including
the forcing of men from civilian jobs into industries which
are unionized and would require the newcomers to pay dues
in order to work, and often without their consent.
NEW POWER MEASURES CAN WAIT
One question before the Legislature can well afford to
wait until after the war issue is Settled, and that is the
effort to decide the course of electric power ownership in
this state by legislative enactment rather than by vote of
the Whole people. The initiative petitions only secured six
per cent of the registered vote, and no further action
should be taken other than submit the question to vote in
1944.
There is no war emergency in the move to take over
all the private power concerns in the state, which have
so far performed well in meeting the expanded demands
for power without any fuss and have pooled all their re—
sources for meeting needs for present and prospective in-
dustries. And there is no time or emergency just now to
undertake extensive suits to absorb these properties, or
to take public funds or issue more bonds, general or reve-
nue; nor to distract attention from all-out war effort.
Behind this movement is the apparent intention in the
end to centralize all the nation's electricity in the control
of federal agencies, and in due time to absorb all the pres—
ent city and public utilities, taking their control away from
the people in their respective districts; this would include
the Seattle and Tacoma municipal operations as well as sev-
eral like those of Mason. County which are already well 2"}
organized and functioning satisfactorily, and central fed-
eral control would offer no improvement.
MORE WALKING XND LESS SHOES
_— l
The nation was hit by a new and unexpected order
Monday which placed under rationing footwear and caught
a good part of the people thinking about buying a new
pair of shoes, but for one reason or another most of them
had procrastinated and now must use stamp No. 17 for
limit of three pairs a year.
In the cities Sunday stores did a great business but
elsewhere shoes were frozen Monday, and a new worry
added to the men of families who have young children to
be shod three or more times a year. However, Dad and
Mom must now forego being so well shod While their chil-
dren. draw part of their ration. But more is to come as
new items getting scarce go on the ration cards.

pated output of logs and lumber,
WPB explained. There is “no in-
tention to disrupt existing ar-
rangements" in the industry, it
was stated, but in some cases it
may be necessary to divert Doug-
las fir logs from the regular chan-
nels.
“The situation is so critical that
available logs and sawmill capac-
ity producing Douglas fir lumber
must be directed to the most
essential military and civilian us-
es if minimum requirements are
to be met,” WPB said. The direc-
tive did not give Brundage any
new powers, but instructed him to

Supply For Home
Use Is Project
Providing helpful information
so Washington families can raise
as much of their vegetables, small
fruits and tree fruits as possible
will be the big wartime job of
the Agricultural Extension Service
in order to speed produc— fhorticulture division, reports Dr.
John C. Snyder, extension horti-
culturist.
“Greater emphasis will be plac—
ed on raising victory gardens, not
only on the farms but in other
communities as well,” says Dr.
Snyder. “The aim is to have a
‘garden for every home.”
A Victory garden bulletin is
now being prepared which gives
helpful information not only for
3 the novice, but for the experienced
gardener as well.
It will deal with such subjects
as soil preparation and fertiliza-
tion, suggestions for garden crop
varieties according to zones of the
state, and suggestions on how to
extend the productive season by
planting at the same time several
varieties of hybrids maturing at
different seasons, and planting
fall gardens in areas where this
is possible. This Vootory Garden
bulletin will be available soon
from your county agent.
Also included in the horticul—
tural project will be an enlarged
4-H club program featuringhome
production of foods.
The small fruits project calls
for a greater supply of these foods
conferred on him last September. » to be raised in home gardens. In-
