For many years innocent-looking
Japanese “tourists” have traveled
through the lands of the Westerh
Hemisphere and the Pacific ocean
taking snapshots.
Occasionally one of these pic-
ture-taking Japanese tourists was
arrested when observed near mili-
tary and naval works, but general-
ly they were merely cautioned by
the authorities and told to move
on.
Without pictures taken from the
land, and the air to guide them it
would have been almost impossible
for the Japanese to have made
their surprise attack on Pearl Har-

WE ARE TOLD THAT in some
localities where similar engineer-
ing contracts have been let, some-
thing like 200 persons have moved
in to do the job.
But we understand that is un-
likely here for the reason that the
contractor has already announced
that offices will be maintained in
Denison and the field workers will
report to the Denison office, where
the draftsmen will work.
This is due to the fact that a de-
fense division has been created by
the district engineer’s office in
Denison, and the office is especially
set up to handle such jobs as the
one near Gainesvillev

the type of enemies attempting to destroy

The decision of the President and his ad-

the nation toward the earliest victory pos-

preserves those fine principles on which
this nation is founded, and restores hope
for humanity in other parts of the world,
the sacrifice will be cheap on any scale of
human measurement.

By A. MORTON SMITH
IT IS STILL TOO EARLY to get
* excited about an army camp in
close proximity to Gainesville.
The letting of, a contract for the
drawing of plans and specifica-
tions for .the;proposed Gainesville
camp, is just another preliminary
step and no assurance that the
camp will be built.
Such contracts have been let and
plans drawn for camps in close
proximity to other cities — Paris,
for example—and yet no contracts
for construction have been
awarded for actual construction.
However, letting of the engi-
neering contract does give Gaines-
ville citizens a better picture of
their prospects, if and when.
For instance, we know that if a
government project is located in
Cooke county where land is now
being appraised and engineers are
making a topographical map, it
will be an army camp, and not
something else.
Furthermore, we know that the
camp is expected to accommodate
35,000 soldiers, and the project will
cost in the neighborhood of $30,-
000,0Q0.
And now we must wait until
the plans and specifications are
drawn, a job that will require sev-
eral months—befare we may anti-
cipate the actual letting of a con-
turns. If taxpayers will file their
returns early, they will find that
this will be mutually beneficial to
them and to the government.
A large number of these returns
contain errors which, if net cor-
rected by the audit, would result to 1
the disadvantage of the taxpayer.
Many persons pay in more than ,
the amount^ of the tax due: others
fail to take advantage of the per- '
sonal exemption, the credit allowed
for dependents, or deductions from
gross income to which they are en-
titled.
In making out your income-tax
return, read carefully and study
the instructions that accompany
the forms on which the tax is com-
puted. If you need more informa-
tion, it may be obtained at the of-
fice of the collector of internal
revenue, deputy collector. or an in-
ternal-revenue agent in charge.
I When you visit an internal-reve-
nue office to get assistance in
making out your return, take a
copy of your 1940 return with you.

HOW TO AVOID COMMON
ERRORS
Twenty-two million persons,
firms, and corporations, it is esti-
mated, will probably file income-
tax returns this year. These re-
turns begin to trickle in around
January 1. Every return for the
calendar year 1941 must be in by
midnight of March 16. In order to
handle the enormous volume of
work alone entailed of receiving
these returns, the Bureau of In-
ternal Revenue has greatly in-
creased its staff in its several dis-
trict offices. The experience of for-
mer years shows that the Bureau

the drug extracted from its bark—quinine—has
remained the principal remedy, and in many parts
of the world the only remedy, for malaria.
A map of the geographical distribution of ma-
laria shows it to be a world-wide sickness, of
which there have been recent cases even in Iowa.
Since the World war has interfered with the pro-
cessing of the bark, and may even interrupt its
cultivation, it would appear a wise precaution
which has led army, navy and health authorities
in the United States to accumulate a store of
10,000,000 ounces of pure quinine.
Moreover, it is not inappropriate that this
precious supply should be stored, as is reported,
in the government vaults formerly used for gold
in Washtagton. .
When the Dutch government in 1854 trans-
ported several hundred cinchona trees from the
forests of Peru, Ecuador and Bolivia to Java, they
began what has now become almost a world
monopoly in production of the drug.
Britain countered the Dutch move with exten-
sive transplantings from America to Ceylon and
India but the Ceylon production has dwindled. The
17,820 tons of cinchona bark, grown and har-
vested last year in the Dutch East Indies, rep-
resented some 90 per cent of the world supply.
American research, seeking a sabstitute for
quinine, is studying two synthetic drugs, atabrine
and plasmochin. Meantime, our authorities take
no chances with possible failure, and have accu-
mulated a hoard expected to be sufficient in any
emergency for a four or five-year demand.—Des
