World's Largest "Battle Wagon" Slides Down Ways Today, in Brooklyn Navy Yard, cheered by 30,000 onlookers, the 45,000-ton battleship Iowa was launched and dedicated to "War to the finish." The 880-foot giant of the seas was christened by Mrs. Henry A. Wallace, wife of the vice-president of the United States, and like him, a native Iowan. First of six vessels of her class to be launched, the Iowa slid smoothly downthe ways exactly seven months ahead of schedule. Admiral E. J. Marquart, commandant of the Brooklyn Navy Yard, promised that she would be outfitted and ready for duty with equal speed. Mrs. Wallace's quiet "Amen" to the blessing asked by a navy chaplain was followed by her quiet statement, "May God guard the Iowa—and all who sail on her." In a message from Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox, he said "Speed the Iowa that it may add its power to the crushing force of a nation which is mighty in its righteous anger." The message was read to the crowd gathered for the launching, and met with ringing cheers. Orange State Alumni See Motion Films Taken in Russia Present day war headlines of the Russian front were given added meaning and significance through motion pictures, taken in that country by Farm Adviser Harold Wahlberg, and shown members of Orange county chapter, Oregon State Alumni, at their annual get-together recently in Santa Ana. The pictures were taken during Mr. Wahlberg's travels in Russia several years ago. With these pictures, he described the geography, resources, customs and the rapid changes that have been taking place in the largest country of the world. His itinerary in connection with the Second World's Soils congress took him through the Ukraine, the Volga and Don River basins, the Caucasus, the oil districts of Baku and the Yalta peninsula where the Sevastopol naval base was located. He showed the vast wheat and farming areas near Stalingrad and Rostov. Robert H. Easton of Anaheim was elected new chairman of the Oregon State group to succeed C. L. Booth, also of this city, who is now serving in the army.

Enlistment of the older men will permit the transfer of younger men in the Coast Guard, to duty on the high seas.

Women Form "Button Brigade" Have you heard of the "Button Brigade?" It was originated in San Francisco by Mrs. George Roos, who might be termed the "Brigadier Buttoner." She and her co-workers, traveling in station wagons, make the rounds of the army camps, with their electric sewing machines, their needles, scissors, buttons, etc. There they shorten sleeves, fit blouses, sew on buttons and insignia for the soldier lads, and do the thousand odd jobs of needlework and mending that men find so difficult. Nice idea, isn't it? Shipyard Bus Line Started This Week Bus service to the California Shipbuilding company plant at Terminal Island was started Monday by J. M. Woodward of Yorba Linda, who was granted a permit to operate the service by the California Railroad commission.
