PIDGIN-ENGLISH
GETS THE BIRD
SOMEWHERE IN THE PACI
FIC—<^P)—Marines are discover
ing that many of the Solomon is
landers speak good English and
the pidgin variety is sometimes re
sented when Americans try their
hand at it.
One lad, after a ride in a Cata
lina, was asked “How you likem
big bird?” and responded with
“Quite an interesting ride.” An
other saluted and said “Thank
you very much” after being given
a ride in a truck during which he
ignored questions in pidgin Eng- j
lish.

URUGUAYAN DAM
AIDED BY U. S.
MONTEVIDEO — (/P) —Power
from a new Rio Negro river dam
may be flowing to Uruguay’s in
dustries in the near future if war
difficulties permit completion of
the dam. Lack of shipping is the
major bottleneck, since a $12,000,
000 U. S. loan and priority aid re
vived the $37,000000 project aban
doned by German contractors
when Uruguay broke with the
Axis.
The dam is one of several pro
jects for Uruguay rivers to reduce
expensive imports of coal and oil.
A 150-mile power line is being
built to Montevideo, and Uru
guayan workers await material
for other installations. The hope is
that one of four projected genera
ting units can be installed by
June.

NOISE IN AIR FLOORS FOE
WASHINGTON— iff) —One of
the noisiest airplanes in service, I
the Harvard AT6 trainer, helped
! fool the Japanese when British
| troops crossed the Irrawady river I
west of Mandalay in Burma.
While troops assembled their
equipment for the night crossing,
an RAF pilot dived, rolled and
climbed, setting up a deafening
roar which drowned out the noise
of the troops entering the danger
ous waters.
The Japs thought an air raid
was on and held their ack-ack
fire. After two hours of this stoog
ing, the RAF pilot was relieved
by Huricane fighters. Then he
went back for three more hours.
“I wish I’d taken along a book,”
he said.
Th U. S. Army overseas re
quires about 1,250,000 barrels of
petroleum products every day.
