started now, every man and woman in
this business will benefit for years to come,
and manufacturers will benefit even more
because they can plan on a permanent in·
dustry, and not have to base their plans on
the possibility that "some territory is
closed" and other territories MAY CLOSE
DOWN.
LET'S GET STARTED!!!!
Rabkin on Coast
LOS ANGELES- William Rabkin, presi·
dent of International Mutoscope Corpora·
tion, New York, paid the West Coast a
surprise visit arriving here by plane Sep·
tember 16th.
Rabkin had been at Randolph Field,
near San Antonio, Texas, demonstrating a
new aircraft training device his firm has
perfected and in which the government is
expressing interest.
At present the Mutoscope factory is en·
gaged 100% on war activity and more
than 300 employees are now busy turning
out essentials of war on prime and sub·
contracts held by the firm .
Questioned as to his views and opinions
on post war manufacturing in this indus·
try, Rabkin stated that there was "one
thing you can be positively sure of, and
that is that post war equipment will be
far superior, mechanically and in every
other way, than machines produced prior
to Pearl Harbor." Explaining his stand
he said: "The plants of the industry which
have converted to war work are now en·
gaged in precision manufacturing of the
very highest type. Everything must be ex·
actly to specifications and as a result our
employees are becoming precision crafts·
men and their skills will be in evidence in
equipment to follow after the war."
Asked if Mutoscope had a number of
ideas and new machines ready for the post
war era, Rabkin replied, "Naturally we've
been busy on developing new ideas and
have several ready but there is plenty of
time to talk of them after Hitler and the
Yellow Dogs of the East are treated with.
Until then, we're building war equipment
to the very capacity of our plant and we
have received several commendations from
the War Department for the excellency of
the equipment coming out of the Muto·
scope plant."
Penny Ban Asked.
WASHINGTON -Senator Buck (R),
Delaware, has had enough of the new
penny which he contends "is shortchanging
the nation."
,
Buck has introduced a bill which would
withdraw the new steel one cent piece
with the zinc coating and require coinage
hereafter of pennies colored, shaped and
designed to be readily distinguishable from
dimes.

CAMP HUMOR
( EDITOR'S NO TE - So popular
was the feat u re o n World War Nmnber
Two Camp H umor in the J u ly issue,
we have decided to offer a few a d d i-
tional column s of typical Army Camp
Humor of the p r esen t conflict. )
We have it on good authority the Presi·
dent told this story to Winston Churchill:
A sailor went to an auction where a par·
rot was being sold. He bid $10 but was
raised to $15. He bid $20 and was raised
again. The bidding was continued until the
sailor got the parrot for $45.
"That's a lot to pay for a bird," the sailor
told the auctioneer. "Can he talk?"
"Can he talk?" the auctioneer replied.
"Who do you think was bidding against
you?"
* * *
He had been in the Army one week and
his sergeant asked:
"What do you think of the Army as far
as you've gone?"
"I may like it after a while," he replied,
"but just now I think there's too much
drilling and fussing around between meals."
* * *
Sergeant: "Why is it important not to
lose your head in an attack?"
Recruit: "Because there would be no
place to put the helmet."
* * *
The recruit, keeping guard, heard some·
one advancing through the dark. "Halt,
who goes there?" he challenged.
"The Commanding Officer," was the
reply.
"Advance and be recognized, Sir."
The officer did so and then asked: "By
the way, who posted you here?"
"No one, sir," said the recruit, "I'm just
practicing."
* * *
A GI had met a new gal, who had made
quite an impression on him.
"Will you be free tomorrow night?" he
asked.
Said the cutie: "Well, not exactly free,
but not very expensive."
* * *
"Milking the cow?"
"Nope, just feeling her pulse."
* * *
"Lieutenant, I can't stay for class today."
"Why not?"
"I don't feel well, sir."
"Where don' t you feel well?"
"In class, sir."
* * *
"If you'll marry me, I'll take out a big
insurance policy on my life so you will be
well 'rovided for."
"Yes, but suppose you don' t die."
