PATRIOTIC TO KEEP LUMBER MOVING“ Shelton’s lumber industry was the only bright spot in g the recent tie-up of logging camps and sawmills of thel Northwest, when the men refused to heed the call to go1 out on strike and stayed on their jobs of producing logs and lumber for war purposes, for that is where it all goes. The strike was supposed to be a spontaneous walk-out in protest to a recent refusal of the War Labor Board to grant a general 71,1) cent hourly increase in wages in the mills, which cost two week’s production and loss of many thousand. man—hours; temporarily ended by promise of re- view if the workers returned to their jobs. The War Production Board now considers lumber No. 1 critical war material, and is urging everybody connect- ed with the lumber industry, including pulp production, to set a faster pace and keep it up; now more urgent be- cause of the lost time due to the recent strikes and walk- outs. For every man sent overseas, the WPB director says, 300 feet of lumber is required to box and crate his initial supplies, and fifty feet a month to keep him supplied; and none of it ever comes back being grabbed by the boys who use every scrap for temporary quarters in the Pacific and even in Italy, where 200 carloads of lumber were required to put Naples port in Shape for use. This explains why it is patriotic to keep lumber moving. DOING THEIR WORK QUIETLY Once a year OS so, as on the occasion of the annual election of officers or some such event, we are reminded ’ in the news of the existence of such organizations as the Order of DeMolay and Order of the Rainbow for Girls. That does not mean that the useful work of these and like organizations of young people does not go on month in and month out. Their constructive program, designed to interest boys and girls, and illumined by the light of a lofty idealism, does not make dramatic news. But while we are worrying about youths who stray too often from accepted paths, we can find solace in the thought that such associations as these continue to provide Whole— some activities for hundreds of boys and girls in Seattle, and thousands throughout the country, offsetting the less desirable influences of the time. We can take solace in the thought, and remember to give them our encouragement and support whenever pos- sible—Seattle Times. “AM I AN AMERICAN?” Sunday was “I am an American Day, as proclaimed by Governor Langlie for general observance, but there should be an everyday Observance of the creed presented by the slogan, particularly these war times when so many of our own are out fighting for all it represents. But if we judge from much that appears in the daily news it would appear that a good many people in these United States are forget- ful of what their citizenship stands for, as well as of the sacrifices now being made and to be made before peace comes. . This failure to measure up to supreme individual effort at home is a blow to the morale on the fighting fronts, and a reflection on the real Americanism of those who are ne- glecting to do their best in support of our distant ones, for whatever reason or excuse; and reserving their selfishness for peace times when it cannot aid our enemies and add to H I our own death toll. The measure of our Americanism will be our effort to giYe every ounce of our time and power to back up our bOYS who are “over there.” SENATORS TWO-J OB MEN Washington _haS two New Deal senators who are try- ing to hog two. Jobs; Senator Walgren files for governor but hangs to 1115 Job and so does Senator Bone, who has been appointed a federal judge but clings to his job, for fear that Governor Langlie would appoint a Repulican suc- cessor.
