PAGE TW0 li i ii ~ 1 Where Cancer Occurs Most Often • %, Washington, D. C. FARMS FOR VETERANS After all the talk about helping those who are making the big sac- Iriflce on the war fronts and giving them an opportunity to reestablish themselves when they come home. newly appointed war liquidator Will Clayton is fighting hard against the veterans. The issue came up when broad- gauged War Food Administrator Marvin Jones backed a proposal to take all the army and navy camps purchased during the war and turn them into farm developments for "veterans after the armistice. Both Marvin Jones and Franklin W. Han- cock, farm security administrator iand former congressman from North Carolina, are urging the idea. They argue that, with military hous- ling already in these areas, they will Z be ideally suited for getting war- Itorn veterans back to the land and a normal farm life of benefit both to Ithemselves and the nation. But Will Clayton, until recently irlght-hand man to Jesse Jones and the biggest cotton broker in the world, argues that the land should ibe sold, with the former owners get- ~ing first crack at it. While Mar- ivin Jones and Hancock don't oppose Ithe theory of letting former owners :buy the land back, they point out ~that, in actual practice, the former i~vners will not have the money, so '~at the land would go to the big land syndicates and insurance com- ipanles, thus increasing the concen- '.tration of farms into big estates. • • $ SKILLED WORKERS i Inside fact about the hot debate on deferring industrial worker~ is that the President first signed an order il[or their nondeferrnent without even consulting his War Manpower Com- missioner Paul McNutL or his Di. 'rector of Selective Service General Hershey, or the head of his War Mobilization board, Justice Jlmmie Byrnes. What happened was that the war ,department sold him on the idea, and he okayed it without consulting McNutt, Bytes, Hershey or even :Donald Nelson, responsible for in- dustrial output. When they heard ~bout it, they rushed to the White House and persuaded the President ~o reverse his order. .- Then ensued a tug-of-war between the army on one side and Donald Nelson, rubber czar Bradley Dewey ct al, on the other. From this came the compromise to permit defer- ment of essential workers over 25, and permit deferment of only 40,000 skilled war workers in the 18 to 26 age bracket. STORY FROM TARAwA Latest story from Tarawa is about Lieut. Gen. How}and ("Howling Mad") Smitt]. Just before the marines landed, a shell struck a building near the wa- ler's edge, and a while cloud aruse from the r~m~s. Actually, it was a cloud of Jap undershirts. When the marines lar:ded, they discovered that Ihe building had been a Jap quarter- rnaster supply depot, and Jap under- wear was blown all over the place• After the bIoody taking of the beachhead, many Leathernecks dis- carded their grimy uniforms and put on clean Jap underwear, as well as .sections of Jap uniforms found around the destroyed building. While this quick-changing was un. der way, General Howland Smith ordered the American flag raised on a pole nailed to the top of a palm tree. "C.~t a bugler out here to blow colors," commanded Smith. Next moment, he was amazed to behold a young marine bugler standing at attention in the clearing and dressed from head to foot in a Jap uniform. The general emitted a roar that shook the island. In the confusion that followed, the bugler literally dove into the ranks of his buddies. He ernerged in jig- time, rea~tired in a marine uniform. $ $ * ALASKAN REPORT Young Representative Warren Magnuson of Washington, recently returned from an inspection tour of our Aleutian and Alaskan bases for the house naval affairs committee, is making a report to the committee which will recommend: That the present system of rotat- ing men in isolated areas, such as Alaska and the Aleutians, be changed from 18 months to one year, provided that transportation facili-' ties are available to bring them back to the United States for a rest. Magnuson will reiterate the im- portance of the North Pacific fron- tier as a "prong" in the war against Japan, will stress the im- portance of keeping our forces in the Aleutian area fresh and ready for the big move against Tokyo. CAPITOL CHAFF Having taken the initial diplomat- ic punch at Ireland, the President is reported holding back regarding further threatened moves. Home front pressure from powerful Irish- American forces apparently was too strong for him. There has been terrific undercov- er griping at Russm inside the ad- ministration ~ince Stalin's recogni- tion of the Badoglio government; sev- eral orders, previously giving Rum, sla certain information she wanted,. have been cancelled. THE GOLDEN VALLEY NEWS HAVE AN~AIqNOA--[ PHYSICAL EXAMINATION Cancer is the second highest cause of dea~, - *~'*in the United Statesr CANCER IS SECOND AMONG @ LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH April is the month to emphasize cancer, the second among the lead- ing causes of death in North Da- kota and the nation. The 1944 Pcampaign slogan will be: "Treated in thne, cancer can be cured," an- nounces Dr. G. F. Campana, direc- tor of preventable diseases¢ North Dakota state department of'heath. Cancer in its early stages is cur- able, but is usually painless, so the patient delays visiting his doctor. Doctor Campana continued, "We will try to teach everyone the early signs of cancer. These are: 1, Any sore that does not heal, particularly about the tongue, mouth or lips. 2. Persistent hoarseness that lasts longer than two weeks. 3. Any persistent lump or thick- ening especially in the breast. 4. Persistent indigestion develop- ing suddenly in middle life. 5. Any irregular bleeding or dis- charge from any body opening. 6. Sudden changes in the form or rate of growth of a mole or wart." Materials on cancer may be ob- tained from Mrs. J. W. Snyder, state commander of the Women's Field Army at Fargo or from the state depaxtmaent of health at Bis- marcia.
