By tills time there wan't mdeh good convenient plunder left untouched In the world.

The peace of Europe tottered aa Germany eyed the vt holdlngt of the czar the. Industrial achievements of the French, and the work! trade supremacy, of the British Empire. Since 1879 Germany had an an alliance with Austria-Hungary to keep the lid on the French. In 1882 the Italians had come into this pact to make it the famous triple alliance. Rumania and Serbia came In later.

Italy was the weak spot In this setup. She considered Austria a natural enemy. England, Russia and France formed, In 1907, the triple entente to keep an eye on Germany. This was the situation when the World war broke out in July, 1914. War came because European diplomats were unable to smooth over the crisis arising out of the assassination of the Austrian archduke Ferdinand, and Serbia.

This was merely the last of a serlc of crises and It gave the war parties the excuses they had been looking for. The World war did not settle enough questions to prevent Warld war II. League "Idealistic." The compromise between League of Nations Idealism ami the realistic international politics represented by the Versailles settlement really satisfied no one. Italy, dissatisfied with her war gains, succumbed to the fast talk of Benito Mussolini, and fascism came into being. One by one, various European nations adopted it In one way or another until it reached "perfection" In Germany.

Japan meanwhile had walked Into Manchuria in 1931, ignoring the league, and had got away with it. Mussolini reached out for Abyssinia, ho and Hitler marched with Franco In Spain, and nothing of consequence was done about those things either. In 1937 the Japs struck again at China, but this time the Chinese fought. Too Little Too Late. European diplomats tried to keep the peace by defense alliances, but a distrust of red Russianursed wholeheartedly by German propagandists kept the western powers from winning Moscow over to an effective defensive system until it was too late.

The nazis struck in 1939, took their time about the conquest of Europe. They ran into so little opposition that they made the mistake of assaulting Russia In the summer of 1941. In the meantime they had got together with Italy and Japan in the axis alliance. The Japanese, confident that the west sooner or later would fight itself nearly to death, struck Dec. 7, 1941, for enormous game In the Pacific.

The flames of war thus licked around the world. When the fire burns itself out, new peace devices will be worked out. Agencies move to relieve 'shortages WASHINGTON. (INS). By two quick moves Saturday the war manpower commission and the war production board reached out for all available manpower to meet critical shortages fo workers in war plants thruout the country.

In keeping with calls for 60,000 men needed particularly in coast shipyards and plane plants, the two agencies took these steps: 1. Paul V. McNutt, chairman of the WMC, announced creation of a WMC industry associations committee representing 750 industries as a means of sifting the entire manpower supply with industry's aid for methods of saving existing manpower and fully utilizing all available workers. 2. T.

K. Quinn, director general of the war production drive, urged labor-management committees of the steel irfdustry, TNT smokeless powder mills, truck and parts plants, forges and foundries to get behind and push individual manpower recruitment by moBllli-lng workers already on the job to go out and get new workers. Karloff undergoes operation HOLLYWOOD.

His physician, Dr.

Raymond L. Jefferles, said Karloff will be unable to work for at least a month. Hermit regislerp for draft GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. W. Eli M.

11 a. to of grisly preludes WASHINGTON, (if). The coming week Is one of grisly memories In recent history. A half century ago Tuesday the Si no-Japanese war broke out. Thirty years ago Friday the first World war began.

Both were no more than preludes to the present truly global conflict. Their settlements deadened but did nut remove the causes, which festered until World wur II broke out. The Sino-Japancse war of 1894 was shortlived but was by no means an exclusively Chinese-Japanese affair It broke out when both the decaying Manchu dynasty ruling China and the Japanese government sent troops into Korea to quell an Insurrection of the Koreans. The Koreans then were part of the Manchu The Japs won, and stayed on. Behind the war was a background of western finagling which has helped to keep the east in turmoil for a hundred years.

The western world (Europe, but the United States was mixed up in it too) was bemused in the '90s by two Ideas. One was the "yellow peril" talk emanating from the German kaiser. The kaiser used It to justify his efforts to gain an empire In the far east. The other Idea was thnt of of the "white man's burden." Imperialism Was the Bule. Imperialism the building of empires was the rule in those days.

Few people, particularly the imperialists themselves, dreamed It was wrong. "After all, these eastern people can't rule themselves, so someone's got to" so said the white man who was gotting rich trading on his own terms with the peoples of Asia, under the protection of his own gunboats and garrisons. This was by no means a purely British assumption. Americans took no territory in the western Pacific before the Spanish-American war, but their traders and bankers and missionaries filled the British-won treaty porta and concessions to such an extent that the British complained about "Yankees who crawled in behind British guns." Imperialism also may have been popular because thru it the nations of the west, Instead of grabbing from each other, grabbed from the dark-skinned peoples of the east and Africa. West Unconcerned In Japan.

The west was little concerned in those days about the ambitions of the little people of Nippon. When Japan cowed the aging Manchu government into the treaty of Shimonoseki in 1895, the Japanese actually were hailed as a stabilizing force in the far east. Japan wrung from China the Island of Formosa and the near by Pescadores, the Liaotung peninsula of Manchuria, and "independence" for Korea so Japan could annex that hapless land a dozen years later. But imperial Russia had her eye on Manchuria, with its warm water ports on the Liatung peinsula, and ganged up with France and Germany to force the Japanese to hand back the peninsula to China. Imperialism In China.

China's helplessness had been exposed, however, and there began a scramble for the juicier parts of what was considered her prostrate carcass. The great powers talked of 'spheres of influence," which easily could develop into "protectorates." The Russians wangled permission to build a shortcut to the Tran-Siberian railway across Manchuria, and to the rage of the Japanese leased Port Arthur on the Liaotung peninsula from China for 99 years. Germany found an excuse to occupy Tsingtao in Shantung and secured a lease on that. France expanded her hold In Indo-China and got a lease on the south China port of Kwang-chowan. The British added a bit to Burma from Yunnan, expanded their leashold at Kow-loom near Hongkong and got a naval base at Weihaiwei in Shantung.

Even second-string powers like Austria-Hungary, Italy and Belgium wangled concessions. The United States, which was committed to the "open door" policy of equal opportunity for trade for everyone in China, held aloof. (We had by 1899 acquired something of a mouthful from Spain in the Philippines.) We joined to some extent, however, in the banking race to lend money to the Chinese for construction and other purposes. Spain Gave Up. Spain's collapse was so severe she got out of the international tussle and sold her Pacific islands to Germany, which had built a great navy and was preparing to bid for world domination, i The Japs, watching all this, held grimly to Korea and annexed it in 1910 after they had won the Russo-Japanese war in 1905.

Meanwhile, Africa was another field of expansion. Germany held large colonies there, Britain was supreme in Egypt, France In the Rising, woretiip. nrtra, Pfouts. mm- 7th and Isttr frank Emery SUNDAY BclKfll. 9 46 a.

Three allied col- four miles of historic Pisa and its famous leaning tower. Two fresh German divisions were thrown Into battle a captured officer's diary described them as "slackers, cripples" and 47 year olds and the enemy from sea to sea still fell back toward the Gothic line above Florence and Pisa. The greatest Immediate threat to Florence was a Fifth army column which alreudy had fought well past Tavernelle, 14 miles south of the city on inland high-j way No. 2. The British Eighth army was driving up the Anio river valley on another good rond in the vicinity of Sangiovanni, 18 miles southeast of Florence.

Seventeen miles away on the southwest, doughboys seizing Cas-tel-Fiorentino were In a position to strike toward Florence on a secondary road and push on north to the Arno. A communique said the Fifth army was consolidating positions on the south bank of the Arno, where there was heavy cannonading in duels between long-range artillery and German guns in the mountain outposts of the Gothic line. Allied counter-fire destroyed several big German guns, it was announced. Suicide squads in circular con crete pillboxes were left behind: by the Germans at curves and road forks, while north of the Arno American patrols found roadblocks and heavily-mined woodland. Polish troops on the Adriatic sector pushed north as much as three miles and made contact with the enemy four miles from the fishing port of Senigallia, at the mouth of the Misa river.

The county highway fund Is made up of receipts from the gas oline tax and automobile license fees and the Income is now reduced so that the available funds are only sufficient to properly maintain the county roads. Funds for new construction must come from some other source. The following tabulation shows the condition of the county's road system aa of Jan. 1, 1844: ravel surfaced roads Crushed rock surfaced 3(18 8 mllee 31 1 miles 16.5 miles Paved Total aurfaoad 732.4 miles 767.3 miles Earth roads Total count roads .1499 7 mllea 132 3 miles State and federal ruada Total roads In county 1632.0 miles A proper postwar road program should include the grading of earth roads, reconstruction of many miles of gravel surfaced roads, the construction of new gravel surfaced roads and the pavement of roads where gravel surfacing is Inadequate and too costly to maintain. Tha county has 767.3 miles of earth roads practically all of which should be grad id at an average cost of $750 per mile for a total of say $575,000.

There are in the county some 75 miles of the older gravel surfaced roads which should be reconstructed and regraveled at a cost of $2,000 per mile for a total of $150,000.00. Gravel Must Be Brought In. One hundred ten miles of gravel and stone surfaced roads require partial reconstruction and regrav-ellng at a cost of $1,500 per mile for a total cost of $165,000. One hundred twenty-five miles of new gravelasurfacing should be constructed at a cost or per mile for a total of $125,000. Because Lancaster county has no deposits of road gravel available in commercial quantities, all road gravel must be shipped or trucked in, thereby making the cost of gravel to Lancaster county nearly double the cost to counties bordering the Platte river or close to good gravel deposits.

There are 25 miles of gravel surfaced roads which should be Daved. five miles should be con crete pavement and the balance oil mat with a six inch crushed stone base. The total cost of this pavement would be approximately $300,000. The total program would be as follows: Oradlns T(T mllea I7S0 par mil $975,000.00 Kaormatructlooa T5 mllea 83.000 per mil 190,000.00 Reconstruct loa 110 mllee at 81,600 per mile 165,000.00 Graveling US mllse 11.000 per mile 125,000.00 Parlns mllea Soo.Ooo.OO Total If this program were carried out over a period of ten years it would require an annual expedi-ture of $131,600. Using the present county valuation of $122,000 an annual levy of approximately 1.08 mills would be required.

In order to provide work for more men Immediately following the war It is suggested that a levy of 1.5 mills be made for the first years to raise $180,000 per year.

The amount available for new construction purposes is sufficient only for a small construction program and is not large enough to take care of replacement of the many light steel bridges which are rapidly reaching an age when they must be replaced. "An increased bridge levy Is suggested as the best means available to raise additional money for a postwar bridge construction fund.

The postwar highway program as outlined In this report is confined to the proposed size only because it appears now that the funds that will be available for road maintenance will not maintain anything more pretentious." Should Build Up Reserves. Near the beginning of the report, Weaver points out that just what financial assistance can be expected from the federal government is unknown and for that reason communities should build up their own reserves. "Many communities," he says, "are building up postwar reserves by regularly setting aside a share of current revenue. Many are studying the bond issue method and some, various other means. "There is some doubt as to just how Lancaster county can proceed under the state budget law.

If the county is permitted to include in the budget the cost of certain definite projects to be built after the war It appears that the best method to use in financing postwar projects would be to conserve the balances in the various county funds and to put a levy on taxable property so as to build up a reserve. One difficulty in building up a reserve from a levy on property is that considerable time elapses be tween the time the budget Is made and the time when money becomes available. Bridges. The following tabulation In the report, shows the number of bridges and culverts in Lancaster county as of Dec. 31, 1943: 689 wooden bridges; 164 steel bridges with concrete floors: 218 steel bridges with wooden floors; 15 stone masonry arch bridges; 122 concrete bridges; 1,068 concrete culverts; 2,234 concrete pipe cul verts; 1,805 corrugated iron nine culverts; 325 wooden culverts or a total of 6,638 culverts and bridges.

The 218 steel bridges with wooden xioors have a combined length of 13,732 lineal feet and The 689 wooden bridges have a combined length of 13,492 lineal feet making the combined length of all the bridges in the county with wooden floors 29,224 lineal feet or five and one-half miles. The U. S. bureau of internal revenue has published a schedulo of probable useful life for bridges as follows: Large concrete and steel bridges 100 years; small concrete and steel bridges 75 years; heavy steel bridges 50 years; light steel bridges 40 years. Replacements Needed.

"Many of the county's liht steel bridges with wooden floors have exceeded this schedule of iiKcful life and are in such a condition that they should be replaced as soon as possible," says the engineer." They were not designed to carry present day loads and many are badly pitted due to lack of paint and maintenance years ago. Immediately following the war a systematic program should be adopted to replace the wooden bridges and steel bridges with wooden floors with bridges of adequate capacity and steel and concrete construction. "An example of urgent bridge work may be found on Salt creek. The channel of Salt creek below Lincoln is rapidly widening and deepening. Six bridges over this channel are light steel bridges ap proximately 50 years of age.

The widening of the channel has now exposed the light abutments leav ing the bridges in danger of being washed out during each flood. Temporary extensions and repairs are made is required but as soon as possible new bridges should be built and a new bridge at each one of those locations will cost $25,000 to $30,000. Plans for those bridges have been completed. "And again the sanitary district is constructing a new channel for Salt creek west of Lin coln. Ihis channel will require new or reconstructed bridges at street, A street, South street, Van Dorn street, Calvert street and Pioneers boulevard.

While there is no agreement as to the proportion of the total cost of this work the county will be required to pay, the cost to the county may be as much as $75,000. Cites Cost Figures. "This necessary bridge work on Salt creek will total approximately $200,000. "The average cost of bridges of steel and concrete construction prior to the war was approxi mately $125 per lineal foot. The total length of bridges to be replaced amounts to 29,224 lineal foot which at $125 per foot amounts to $3,653,000 or say $3,500.

If those bridges are re' placed over a 25 year period an annual expenditure of $140,000 for new construction would be required. Since the average annual maintenance cost of all of the bridges in the county is approxi mately $20,000 the total annual expenditure would be $160,000. An estimate of the income from the gasoline tax based upon pre war consumption and existing law, amounts to $35,000 per year This leaves $125,000 to be raised by taxation on property. "The present assessed valuation for tax purposes of all the prop erty In Lancaster county is approximately $122,000,000. To raise $125,000 would require a levy of 1.02 mills or $1.02 per $1,000 of valuation.

"Instead of a uniform program over a period of 25 years and in order to replace many light steel bridges as soon as possible it would be more desirable to in crease the amount available for the first five years immediately following the end of the war to say 1.5 mills for the first five years instead of 1.02 for the 25 year plan. "The present Lancaster county bridge levy is .23 mill and the balance in the county bridge fund as of Dec. 31, 1943, was The balance in the bridge fund is gradually increasing and may appear large. However, the balance is increasing only because necessary bridge work is not be ing done, because of a shortage of labor and inability to get ma terials. Roads.

"All classes of roads and streets have suffered rapid deterioration during the war. Because of the shortage of manpower, materials and equipment, highway con struction has been virtually stopped, and even maintenance is reduced to bare needs. Conse quently, the postwar highway program must be large enough to matte up lor time lost during the war and to make headway on the inadequacies that existed prior to the war. "Due to the above reasons the balance in the county highway fund has been increasing until on Jan. 1944, it amounted to $102.

000. This balance, however, will be spent rapidly following the war when new equipment can be purchased and many of the roads rebuilt which have been neglected. "The greatest handicap to any county highway construction program after the war will be the lack Of funds.
