S. Smelting, Refining and Mining Company have gone back to work. It would be difficult to find a better illustration of the value of mediation in bringing together apparently | irreconcilable points of view, Jesse F. Jacobson, Department of Labor Concilia- tor, flew into Fairbanks, did some straight talking| to both company and employees, whipped up a com- promise agreement, had it approved by both sides of the dispute and left a situation as harmonious as it had been inharmonious on his arrival. Without the| efforts of some such neutral troubleshooter, inter- ested not in the triumph of either side but in bring- ing both sides together, the strike might very well‘ have continued for a long time. Not only Fairbanks, but Alaska as a whole, should celebrate the end of the strike. For Territorial tax revenues would have been hit as hard as Fairbanks community prosperity if the industry had not got back into operation during the limited season in which it can operate. I S e Sl L Rk | GADGETS FOR GUNS | The serene waters of civilian life in the United States are soon going to be ruffled in the-backwash from the defense effort. A “good time as usual” is no more possible under the needs of this era than “business .as usual.” Americans should start now to adjust themselves mentally for the changes and sacrifices that are inevitable. £t Taustty. alreddy ‘hasAfHIt the effect. It is rap- idly accommodating itself to new conditions. It is cooperating with the Government in the greatest national emergency. But so far the general public has been cushioned from these shocks of readjust- ment. Now they are beginning to be felt. Metallurgical trades are naturally the first af- fected. Changes in the automotive industry, which has turned a large portion of its facilities to the production of war goods, have been the first to reach the consumer. The building trades may be the next. H. Kennedy McCook, assistant to the | deputy director of the pnonues dmmfi; «af OPM, warns, of.-shartages in sheet ‘metal, 1‘1umbing sup- plies, ‘hardware, chromilim, nickel 'plate, 'electrical fixtures and electric cable for civilian use. b o4 | jines of consumers’ goods. They will be felt in tex- tiles and thereby call for sacrifices in the variety, although not necessarily in the quantity, of women’s wearing apparel. What is happening is a readjustment in the en- tire industrial plant of America. The switchover from peacetime to war production cannot be made without the effect being felt throughout the countr: Americans should be prepared to fall in line, For | seven years before the war, the Germans regulated their economy under the slogan, “Guns instead of butter.” If the totalitarian idea is to be defeated,| the democracies of the world must likewise sacrifice. The gun-butter phrase may not be applicable to the American setup, but the. citizens of the United States| may have to sacrifice gadgets foreguns. They should | oe glad to do it for it is the only way to prevent| the coming of a form of civilization under which neither gadgets nor butter would be available even in so-called normal times. Japanese Fairy Tale (Cleveland Plain Dealer) Once upon a time there were certain trustful souls who said, “Don’t antagonize our friends thel Japanese by cutting off their oil supplies from the United States. To do so will drive them into the Netherlands Indies and spread the war in the Or- ient.” Many Americans believed this Japanese fairy tale spread by friends of Tokyo and tourists who had had tea with the Premier or some other nabob of the Mikado’s. - And the oil continued to flow so Japan could crush America’s friend, China. This was too bad, they reasoned, but it was one| evil and not two. The Indies were still unmolested. Then came the war in Europe and the Indies were cast adrift, remaining loyal to the Netherlands gov-i: ernment in exile and becoming an ally of Britain. | In the meantime Japan had stored away a year’s supply of petroleum for her fleet and her air force. The oil continued to come from opulent, but stupid America. Japan moved into French Indo-China and forced it to become virtually a colony of Tokyo. Malaya filled with troops, so the base at Singapore was by-passed by a Japanese trade mission which established itself at Batavia and opened negotiations with the colonial Dutch. Give us all the oil, rubber, quinine that Japan wants, said the mission, broadly intimating that the i Mikado's fleet was unoccupied for the moment and would relish a cruise to the South China Sea. Just a little more of these materials, responded the Dutch, provided Tokyo gives assurances that none of them will reach Germany. This the Japanese refused and so the negotiations have broken down. The next step is obvious. Increased military as well as diplomatic pressure will be exerted on the colony. Japan intends to get the Indies as she ob- tained Indo-China. Force will be used if necessary. Only in the case of the Indies the colonial govern- ment will fight. What, in this drama, has become of that good fairy, that angel of Oriental peace, the American| policy of appeasing Japan with oil and other war| materials? It has not only failed, like all appease- ment gestures, it has enabled Japan to continue the war in China and to build up the means with which to attack the Indies and other European possessions. This may spell disaster to the United States. From the Orfent this nation obtains not only the bulk of its tin-and rubber, but a score of small yet important products, without which the industrial might of America soon would collapse. It is not too late to retrieve this error. When it comes to stamina in dealing with the aggressors of Asia Wash- ington can learn much from Batavia.

Pastor Wood also had the privil- ege of flying to the Bermuda Is- lands as co-pilot. They then went to California to attend the 4lst session of the General Conference of 'the Seventh-day Adventists, Pastor Wood stated the atten- dance at the General Conference, which is held every four years, was the largest in history. Many dele- gates came from overseas, despite the unsettled conditions of the world.
