The guards, apparently, were similar Alaska’s Territorial Guar Labor has made a good record in.the war effort and is continuing to make a good record, but the more the examples of unpatriotic work stoppages, the more restrictions. The Government and the great mass of the American people are interested mainly in winning the war at present, and if certain labor unions put | their own selfish interests above this they will suffer. On the good side of the record, American labor, which has sent some 2,000,000 members to take their | places among the armed services, has already caught | up with and passed the Axis slave army despite its| seven-year head start the 'production line must gain the overwhelming superiority that will bring victory to| Among the records which have been chalked up |weight of ice atcumulating on the plane as in the an obstacle to future partnership | by our working men the following stand out: More than 5 billion dollars worth of machinery and equipment produced by pattern makers, tool and die makers, molders, metal polishers, machinists, elec- trical workers and other tradesmen before the first of Mpy, 1943. Production of 700 p ent more chromite, 1.4 tons per man hour of copper ore produced compared -to 04 in 1918. Five and a quarter tons of soft coal per From now on the soldiers on | day compared to a 1918 yield of three tons. By December 7, 1941, the basis framework of a munitions industry had been built. A year and half later American labor was producing more than five and a halfl times fighting material per month. In the first five months of 1943 we produced 100 fighting ships, three times as many as were built in 1941. In'the year ending May 31, 1941, less than one | “ary cargo” ship was delivered each week. In the | single month of May this year an average of almost four a day slid down the ways. More than 7,000 planes are being produced each month as against a total of 10,143 in the first 12 | months of the defense program. One and a half million machine guns in the third year after Dunkirk, compared with 25,000 in the year from June, 1940, Production figure show that labor is doing job. Uncalled-for strikes give labor a black eye. as much the FIRST APPLICATION Northwest Airlines has applied to the Civil Aero- | nautics Board for the first post-war air route to | Tokyo via Alaska and the Aleutians. The company claims it has set the pace for post-war the air transportation industry. Many persons would be surprised if it could be told just how close to Tokyo another airline’s planes g flying today in the interest,of the war effort. These are the planes of the only major airline that has provided and pioneered good service to Alaska— Pan American Airways. If such a route to the Orient is contemplated for after the war, it is certain that the route could support no more than one company. Northwest Airlines may have set the pace in talk- ing about post-war flying—but Pan American has set | the pace in carrying out the actual pioneering and flying of the routes that lead to the East Plane De- lung‘ (New York Times) Of interest both from the point of view of the| war effort and of post-war civilian flying is the an- nouncement of a new method of preventing ice forma- tion on airplnaes, developed by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics in collaboration with tho[ engineers of the Consolidated Vultee Aircraft Corpora- tion. This method carries the hot air of the engine exhaust to the inside of the wing and tail surfaces, so that icing is prevented even when the plane is standing on the ground with engines running. The new tem has been installed on the Catalina PBY-5 long-range patrol bomber and soon will be included in the Libertor bomber, as well as in the Coronado and | other naval patrol types. The battle against icing | The condition occurs under certain combinations of | humidity and temperature at many altitudes and is | | particularly troublesome at high altitude, where much of the present combat flying must be done and where many of the airliners of tomorrow's tmmpoltatmn ‘ will operate Dm\gers of icing lie not so much in the !de(mmauon of the airfoil represented by either wings | |or tail. the slightest interference with the surface shape and smoothness of the airfoil means trouble that may range all the way from slight loss of efficiency to extreme hazard.
