Labor Peer Says Britannia
Stall Rules The Waves
Lord Winster said in a recent
Ifp'eeeh that British shipyards had
Meade 90e warships since the war
began and had replaced by last
September all naval losses suffer-
ed by the Royal Navy.
The Labor peer, frequently cri-
tival of the Admiralty, said this

WI of Franco and that 6,000,000
tone of Axis shipping had been

Two eneally battleships, . 14
tsruisers, 87 destroyers and many
other lesser vessels have been
sunk, he said, adding that the
Italians -bad been unable to sink
a single British ship so far.
Lord Winster said that In two
ant of three great Convoys sent
to North Africa, not a ship or a
life was lost. Losses in convoy
protection have been kept down to
one-half of one per cent, and the
merchant navy has delivered 40,,-

Have You Heard?
The sergeant halted the new
sentry opposite the man he was to
relieve.
"Give over your orders," he said.
The old sentry* reeled off the
routine instructions with confi-
dence, but one of the special orders
baffled him.
"Come on, man!" said the ser-
geant, impatiently,
"On no account," stammered the
sentry, "are you to let any ques-
tionable characters through the
lines, except the colonel's wife!"

Freedom is where ee you find it,
saya The Hamilton Spectator. One
doesn't look for freedom behind
prison walls, or expect to find
other than a limited personal love
of it among those who are in
sombre exile from the world. Yet
it has remained for a group of con-
victs to give unique expression to
what freedom means as a way of
life for humanity at large.

In the shops of the Ohio State
Penitentiary "camouflage cloth"
has been manufactured for the
.American forces. There was a
tremendous need for this material,
.and those plants producing it were
urged to increase their output.
The warden of the Ohio prison ap-
proached the inmates and lald the
matter before them. Would they
like to do something far their
country and help to defeat the
Axis tyrants? Would they caro to
put in some overtime and thus
make greater quantities of camou-
nage cloth available to the army?
The prisoners responded with a
will.
That was about one year ago,
and since then no fewer than 600
of these men have volunteered to •
give up their evening creation and
return to the prison mill for three
hours each night. They did this
heartily, after a full day's work
at the same occupation. Not a
machine has been idle on the vol-
untary night shift since the war-
den made his appeal. And the
army is getting the cloth.
The patriotic example set by
these Ohio convicts requires no
comment, although it would he
interesting to hear what John L.
Lewis and some other union lead-
ers in the United States would
say, as well as the .strikers in
war plants in Canada,

of judge and executioner with
the greatest efficiency; he was
his own truant officer and school
inspector, questioning his chil-
dren on what they Learned, and
raising the roof when they did
not )earn enough; he was his own
Dunn and Bradstreet, his own
detective agency, and his own
Dorothy Dix, investigating the
:Financial, moral and social status
of the young men his daughters
wanted to marry; he was often
unjust, often a tyrant, often a
pompous ass, but he was never
negligible, and too many modern
fathers are just that.

WHAT SCIENCE
IS DOING
PAPER IN WAR
In a manner of seeaitleg, we are
almoat literally "fighting tris war
on paper," for paper, In a multi-
tude of uses and fabrications, is
proving indispensable in the war
against nmies,
Accordingour etoeVanes P. Felwar'des
of the International Paper Cora -
peter,. i1 the supply of all types
and kinds of paper abould be stop-
ped suddenly, the war would end
in sex months, for there is only
that much in reserve.
About 30,000 pounds of blueprint
paper are required in the building
of a battleship. Tb,e army needs
huge quantities of building paper,.
sailligierepaper, cartons, shell con-
tainers, code books, hospital sup-
pliee, printing,' wrapping and Writ-
ing papers, target paper, etc.
* r
Packages resistant to water va-
por have been developed for the
protection of such foods as lemon
powder, dehydrated vegetables and
/soups, powdered milk and eggs,
flour, cereal, and dessert powders.
Papers to protect articles during
shipping have been developed
which are insect -proof, rat -proof,
and capable of being submerged
in the surf for 24 hours without
damage to the contents. Much of
the packaging for the army must
be designed to withstand temper-
ature variations of from 20 de-
grees Fahrenheit below zero to
130 degrees above,
r
* *
Paper also has been put to .some
rather astonishing and unprece-
dented uses. For instance, It has
been•used as a substitute for can-
t Vas iln stretchers; as a substitute
for steel strips in the retrapping of
light bundles; as fins to guide
the flight of incendiary bombs;
as hand grenade eases; for a sub-
, statute for burlap in sand bags;
etc,
And all of these military uses
are over and above the enormous
quantities of paper used by civ-
ilians, including the emergency
packing of many products pre-
viously put up In tins, thus effect-
ing savings of millions of pounds
of strategically important tin an-
