MAKING HAVOC AMONG THE JAPANESE in Burma from February through May of this
year, have been columns
of British, Indian and Burmese troops led by a British brigadier. They blew
_up more than 100 miles of Jap railroads
and bridges. killing numerous Jap soldiers. But perhaps more important was
their work in budding better roads into Burmt

Share Cookers
“Share your pressure cooker”
is a campaign gaining great m0-
mentum in Washington state these
days, according to reports receiv—
ed by the Agricultural Extension
:Service of the State College of
Washington.
In virtually every community
neighbors are either making plans
or are right now joining with
someone with a pressure cooker
to get their canning done. It is
not necessary to loan your pres-
sure cooker outright. Rather the
idea of several housewives get—
ting together with someone with
a pressure cooker and doing the
processing at “canning Bees" is
working out most satisfactorily.
Because of unfavorable grow-
ing conditions in some parts of
preserving just as
much of the home food supply
as possible is more important
than ever. This means using all
existing pressure cookers to ca-
pacity, exchanging surplus pro—
duct among families, canning to—
gether in neighborhood groups,
and spreading out the canning
season to get greater variety of
. products.

ber when women never went into
beer parlors except to drag their
husbands out.

ing of the late D. B. Davies his

materials. The turnover of labor,
both in the woods and in the
mills, resulted in operating inef-
ficiencies with accompanying cost
increases. The rates paid labor
were increased. There has been
no increase in the prices received
by the company for its products
since June, 1940.
Development of the shipbuild-
ing industry and growth of other
.war plants resulted in a severe
shortage of manpower necessary
to produce logs and operate the
mills in the localities where Ray-
onier’s plants are situated. Be-
§ cause of these shortages the War
friend; science has lost a searcher ‘
for and discoverer of the truth;
humanitarian forces have lost a
firm supporter and a hard worker;
and the community has lost one
who was greatly interested in and
has substantially contributed to
its upbuilding and progress.
Be it further resolved that a
copy of this resolution be sent
to the family of the said D. B.
Production Board ordered some of
the company’s plants to be oper-
ated at a reduced rate of produc-
tion and the Tacoma plant shut
down. After careful investigation,
the directors of the company de-
cided to abandon the Tacoma
plant and certain 'facilities that
had been installed at Shelton in
order to process the unbleached
pulp manufactured at Tacoma.
The amount written off plant and
equipment amounted to $988,274.
Reduce Bank Loans
Bank loans due August 1, 1944
were prepaid in the amount of
$500,000. This reduced the amount,
outstanding to $3,000,000 which
is payable in four semiannual in-
stallments of $500,000 each, com-
lmencing February 1, 1945, and
l
i
one installment of $1,000,000 pay-
able February 1, 1947.

Road to Burma

In summarizing the annual re-
port to stockholders, Edward M.
Mills, president, states, “It ap-"
ipears reasonable to assume that
after the war there will be a very
great expansion in world usage of
rayon yarn, staple fiber, cello-
phane, plastics and numerous
other commodities where dissolv-
ing pulps may be economically
applied, and your company, thru
its development of special types
of pulps for, these purposes, stands
in a position to benefit materially
,from this anticipated growth.”
and in making friends among the native people. These will. be useful when
it becomes possible to launch the offensive
that. will drive out the Japanese. This new picture of supplies carried by
mules tor the Allied troops in Burma shows the
difficult jungle conditions in which these daring fighters operated.

the Abyssinian campaign with the capture of Nazi Col. Gen. Von Arnim,
former chief of Axis armies in Tunisia.
Fighting with the Eighth Army, these men were part of the infantry vanguard
at El Alamein, later broke the Mareth

to Tunis and Cape Ban. This Indian contingent,
part of the largest volunteer army in the world—nearly

own strength in the campaign before El Alamein.
