I The OPA is setting up ma chinery to enforce a drastic new regulation requiring the grad ing of all beef carcasses and wholesale cuts according to government specifications, It Is announced by J.

The new order provides penal ties of up to $5,000 fine and a year In prison for either buyers or sellers who deal In meats not graded under federal rules or who sell at prices In excess of those permitted by OPA ceilings. Upgrading of beef to obtain higher prices will be subject to the same punishment.

Jt 1. Assist in liquidating the black market by Insuring that all meat sold legally is stamped by tbe grader, thus making de tection of unlawful transactions easier. 2. Elimbiate the current prac tice of sidestepping price ceil ings by placing on meat a higher grade than the quality war rants. 3.

'BREAD ON WATERS’ RHUSNS TO BERLIN Last Monday night Berlin received its 58th and great est raid of the war when an estimated 400 RAF planes dumped 900 tons of high explosive and Incendiary bombs on the Oerman capital. Fires were visible 200 miles away and London said the Berlin raid was “twice as great as any raid Londoners have been forced to' béar.” The RAF lost 19 planes and Berlin admitted 191 kiiéd 'and 268 injured. Contrary to their usual practice of attempting retalia tory raids on England, the Oermans did not send a single plane against England following the Berlin raid. The bombing took only 30 minutes and Included two and four- ton block busters. ROUND THE CLOCK BOMBING British and American bombers have passed 100 hours of roimd-the-clock bombing of Oenhan-helcl industrial centers and submarine bases. V№ile these bombings are a part of the picture of softening the Axis for the invasion of Europe, observers think the aerial storm has some time to blow before the way is biased for troq> landings. The present aerial offensive is called the greatest the world hag ever aeen and during February the RAF and USAAF lost only 176 planea-ise British anh 20 American.

Berlin said the fortress had been cleared of Oerman forces “according to plan,” suggesting that the Germans may be engaged in a far-reaching retreat on the northern front. Meanwhile mud and spring thaws have slowed down the Russian offensive in the Donets basiii, although pres sure still is being maintained by the Russians against the Orel sector. JAPS SUFFER HEAVY LOSS Ten warships and 12 transports in a New Guinea- bound Jap convoy have sunk or rendered in a sinking condition by Allied planes, Gen.

FOOD , Civilian supplies of canned vegetables from next summer’s Farmers Get Higher Ratings For Lumber Higher priority ratings for softwood lumber required for es sential agricultural uses are pro vided In an amendment to the softwood lumber conservation order, according to G. T. Scott, chairman of the State USDA War Board. Under the new ruling, farmers are provided with an AA-3 prior ity rating for lumber used In maintenance and repairing of farm buildings, other than dwell ings. An AA— rating is provided for most other agricultural uses, such as constructing shelters, bams, pens, sheds for livestock and tioultry, and other essential buildings. ' "Automatic preference ratings are not provided for new soft* wood lumber to be used for such agricultural purposes as con struction of new dwellings, gar ages, machine sheds, repair shops and similar buildings”, Scott said. "The softwood lum ber conservation order, however, does not effect the use of home- sawed,’ used, or hardwood lumber for any purpose, unless otherwise restricted. Regardless of the type of lumberused, present conser vation orders prohibit construc- tlno of agricultural dwellings costing $200 or more and other agricultural buildings costing $1,000 or more, without prior ap proval of the War Production Board.” He said the amendment makes it compulsory for dealers to fill purchase orders carrying a pre ference rating If they have the material on hand and do not have orders pending with higher priority ratings. estimated pack will be increased about 10,000,0()0 cases under new food orders. Most of the Increase will be canned tomatoes* and snap beans.

ALL 100% WOOLI EVERY NEW COLORl 5-POUND SUGAR SACKS BACK Housewives again will buy »ugnr in the familiar five-pound sacks and boxes when sugar ra tion stamp No. 12 becomes valid on March 16, the state office of price administration announced today. The five pound ration, how ever, must last from March 16 through the end of May, a pe riod of 11 weeks. Stamp il, good lor three pounds, is valid to March 15. The reason for validatine the coupon for five pounds of sugar, OPA rationing officials ex plained, is twofold. It will save manpower—not only in pack aging the sugar, but in requiring less handling. It will cut by nearly one-half the actual num ber of packages that processors, wholesalers, retailers and con' sumers must handle, and at the same time reduce the number of times sugar must be bought at retail. It also is expected that this change will prevent some of the waste now involved in repack aging in the present small pack age sizes.

Ameican Morale Various and sundry columnists and news broadcasters have frequently soufj^t to bolster American morale by pointing out the pdflslble lack of morale in Germany. Even from the beginning of the war many Americans en tertained the belief in an early fall of Hitler. But reliable reports, and even, ii^erentially, from radio nports, Ger many has never been on the verge of collapse, and Is now in better shape than:fuiy other European country. What we have frequently suggested is attention to our own morale. Vfe need the kind of morale which is bom out of hopes, beliefs, faiths, and the character of patriotic Americans. We need the kind which does not need a stimu lant, but is sufficient to face the facts, and to do so with laith, courage, and determination. With a few victories in Egypt and in Russia we were talking glibly last week about an early end of the war, with our reverses in Africa, we heard. a tone of pessimism, and prophecies to the efect that we have a long, long war ahead. Sucli emotional instability is dangerous. It Is exactly what the enemy wants. Let us face the fact that Germany is pretty well supplied with stoleti godds to feed her army and people; she has a large army, w d it is well equiped. We are going to Win, but we are Jtut at the beginning of our tears, sweat, and blood. It is no use to try to hide our heads in the sand in an attempt to dodge facts. Long, hud, costly lighting is the cost we shall have to pay for victory. Congress, Soldiers, and Civilians Our representatives in Congress, our soldiers on the battlefields, and the civilian population make up the United States. The representatives are all drawn from the people. It is regrettable that each group should become overmuch self-conscious, and instead of unity and harmony have antagonism between them. Yet we seem to be in danger of making the distinction so prominent, and each so set against the other, as to endanger our common wfir effort. Our soldiers are under orders, and taking what is handed out to them. They have done so in high patriotic fashion, and are not complaining about the very great sacrifices which they have made. But among the civilian population, and among members of the United States Congress, there have appeared dispositions and actions which are ugly and unpatriotic. Runs on stores for luxury goods, com plaints at every set of restrictions, hoarding by many, and demanding high compensations for y^ork seem terribly shabby, cheap, and mean. Highly paid workers, obstruct ing the war effort for more pay, promotors extracting exhorbitant profits, and tum blers who resent being de prived of their luxuries, set alongside the foxholes of Bataan, and in the jungles of Ouad^canal furnish some contrasts which contain glory for the soldiers; shame for the selfish grabbers. We have read the newspapers rather faithfully, and, ion the whole, the simple accounts of the doings of Congress have not left with us tte sense of respect which we should like to have for Congress. Congress should not permit the executive branch of tiw government to usurp its powers and privileges, and it should guard the people agtUnst encroachments upon their rights, but we cannot escape the conviction that, 4or the most part, it has been the executive branch which has looked after the interest of the people, while certain members of congress have fought, not to further the interests of the country, but to defend themselves and their pet notions. Much of the opposition, it seem to us, has arisen over political jealousies, and the desire ot individuals to secure revenge. It would impress us more favorably if the opposition expressed in Congress were positive efforts on the side of victory. Members of both parties have manifested some ugly dispositions. When men are dying, after having accepted the hardships and sacrifices of soldier life, the confusion caused by a dickering Congress does not give that body a commanding (nr commendable position tn the eyes of the soldiers.

Fourteen Jap ships, including warships, one of the largest convoys ever sent by the enemy, is reported moving towards the north coast of New Guinea. Stormy weather is preventing the U. S. air force from attacktag. At the same time Ahmiral Nimltz, head of the U. S. Pacific fleet, hinted that our forces were about ready for isome offensive action aimed eventually at bringing not only American air power, but American artillery, within range of the Japanese homeland. NAZIS GAIN IN TUNISIA In northern Tunisia the Nazis are reported to have made small g^ins, after being thrown back with heavy losses in flve local attacks. The thrust carried them be yond the town of Sldi Nsir. In central Tunisia Allied forces continued to advance beyond recaptured Kasserine Pass and toward the enemy position of Sbeitla. In southeastern Tunisia patrols of the British eighth army were probing the Axis line. WORK OR FIGHT BILLS Following last week’s brief work stoppage in the west coast Boeing Flying Fortress plants, flve anti-strike bills have been introduced in congress. All of the bills provide for government seizure of plants where production is stopped by strikes or other causes and some carry treason or work-or-flght clatises. NO CLOTHES RATIONING War Information Director Elmer Davis denies the ru mors of impending clothes rationing. He says there is no shortage of clothes or textiles. People who b,uy up excess supplies of clothes now are taking unfair advantage of their fellow citizens, Davis said. ' 20 PER CENT WITHHOLDING TAX It looks like congress will pass a 20 per cent withhold ing tax, elective for the second half of the year. The house ways and means sub-committee has approved such pay- as-you-go taxation. Taxpayers would pay March and June installments this year and beginning July 1 a withholding tax of 20 per cent would be put into effect. This tax would be flgureh as 3 per cent on waces and salaries above exemp tions of $024 like the Victory tax, plus 17 per cent on wages and salaries above regular income tax exemptions of $500 for single, $1,200 for married persons pius $350 for each dependent.

Soldiers flghtltiK in trenches and foxholes on foreign soils may not be interested in the contour of the land, but farm ers back home find contoured “trenches" pay dividends In food and fiber needed for vic tory, according to Earl B. Gar rett, State Conservationist of the U. S. Soil Conservation Bervlce and a member of the state USDA War Board. Con servation practices carried out in the past ten years have done a great deal toward Increasing per acre yields on North Caro lina farms, Oarrett says, and contour farming is one of the modern conservation methods which will help farmers meet their food production goals this year. Think You’re Having It Tough? Asl( Cpl. Holcomb About War If you are worrying for fear you won’t have all you want to eat because of point ra tioning, you should ask Cpl. Calvin Holcomb how his and tlwusands of other marines’ stomachs felt during the month they lived on Japa nese rice and cocoanuts on Ohiadalcanal. And If you’re thinking that Yadkin county Is sort of a dull place In which to live, you should ask Ma rine Holcomb how soft his bed liere at home feels as cbm- pued with the fox holes of the little south PfMlflc Island. . Perhaps you’re having trouble getting a room In thé hospital. Your lot won’t seem half so bad after you have heard how men, dead and wounded, lay on the hot bat tlefield for hours before re ceiving aid. You’d learn a lot by talking to young Holcomb, who has arrived In YadklnvUle to spend a 30 day furlough with his parents, Mr. and Mxa. George M. Holcomb. But what you would not learn would be those things Which would aid the enemy if told, for Marine Hol comb knows when to stop talking and is quick to an swer, “I don’t know or I’d rather not say.” WALKER FUNERAL HOME Funeral Services—Ambulance Service Phone 5711 Phone 48 Cooleemee, N.

BAILEY'S CHAPEL Mr, and Mrs, Junior Sprye visited Mr. and Mrs, Lloyd Fos ter of Reeds Friday night. Mr. and Mrs. Pete Markland and daughter, Vivian Mae, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Sam Hege. . Mr. and Mrs. Orrell Koontz of Lexington spent Sunday with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Carter. Fred Myers is on the sick list. There will be a special serv ice at Bailey’s church Friday night, March S. Mr. Gentry will speak on "Salvation of the Un- saved.” Mildred Sprye spent Saturday night with Doris Tucker. Raymond Bailey, who is tak ing a barber’s course in Win ston-Salem, spent the weekend with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bonce Bailey. Pvt. John Bailey of Fort Bragg Is home on a furlough. Holcomb was wounded in the first major battle of Guadalcanal. He was among the first marines to set foot on the Japanese-held island in the early morning of August 7. He was one of those who lived on rice and cocoanuts and fought with only light equipment during ttie first weeks when they awaited the arrival of better supplies. He was one of those who dug fox holes with their ban hands and stood in water waist- deep while defending their stand against Jap bombings.. Yes, you would learn a lot by talking to Marine Hol comb. You’d lesim what a sick feeling It gives a boy not to get a letter on those celebrated occasions when mall Is deliv ered to a place like Guadal canal. You’d learn that James Roosevelt Is a crack officer, who goes to the front with his men. You’d learn something of how it feels to lie paralyzed on the battlefield, look about you and see your lieutenant and 'your buddies dead and dying. It wouldn’t be hard for you to understand why young Hol comb bites his nails, shifts his feet nervously and finds It hard to sit still long at a time after yon had heard him tell of the nights when the cun ning Japs refused to let him and his men rest for even a second. You would also know that he knows what he Is say- .Ing when he tells you that "war Is heU.” Well beat the Japs, he says, but it will be long and hard. We will beat them because our men on the ground. In the air and on the sea are working as one like they did in the job of taking Guadalcanal. "The navy saved our lives many times,” Holcomb will tell you, “and pilots picked out of the air those Jap planes that ha rassed us day and night.” We’ll win, Holcomb believes, be cause there are still marines like the one who turned his heavy tank back In the thick of Are to rescue a buddy tank that was stuck In the mud. We’ll win because Ameri cans have what it takes, Hol comb says, and he should know. He saw a lot on Guadal canal. Right now, Marine Holcomb Is busy resting, visiting his friends and relatives. The things he has planned for the next three weeks include a trip to Winston-Salem to visit the parents of Marvin "Buck" Hendricks. Marine Hendricks was the only boy from this section whom Hol comb came to know during his mission to Guadalcanal. And after his furlough, young Holcomb will report back to California, and from there, well, it will be up the the marines.

Blue Mold Is Spreading Over Southern Georgia Howrad R. Oarrlss, Extension plant pathologist at N. C. State College, states that Georgia has a widespread development of blue mold on tobacco, far more than usual for this season' of the year. He says that no one can predict how serious the trouble will be In North Carolina but urges all tobacco growers to be on their guard and prepare now for It’s control. Oarriss suggests that growers anticipate their requirements in spray materials and paradichlo- roHenzene for fumigating because these materials may be hard to get on short notice. Emergency demands for ail kinds of supplies are developing in connection with war needs and farmers should make definite commitments for their materials used in control ling blue mold. Supplies of heavy muslin cloth suitable for gas treatment, are described as "very critical” and large scale demands for it will porbably be discouraged, unless it can be shown that its need is absolutely essential. Growers should carefully preserve all cloths which can be used for fumigating and make the best possible use of them. According to Garrlss, most of the materials used for blue mold control are present In normal amounts but, as stated before, they may be very hard to get on short notice, with a conse quent damage to young tobacco plants in this territory.

He was home on leave a short while ago. Selective service has made several changes to relieve the farming situation in this country. One is a new order reclassifying those 38 to 45 which has the effect of induc ing those over 38 to go into farming by May 1. If they do enter farming, they are deferred for tlie war; if not, they are subject to draft “if and when the armed forces deter mine they can be used in tiie military establishment.” The other selective service order is designed to keep agricultural workers on the farm. It makes four pro visions; 1. When a man is deferred for farm work by his • local draft board, he must stay deferred even if the board cannot meet its quota. 2. Any man with farming experi ence now in other work gets farmer deferment if he returns to farming before he is notified to appear for induction, 3. A farmer about to lose his deferment because of failure to meet production requirements m ust be referred to the county farm war board and 30 days must be allowed for his placement in another farm job before he can be drafted. 4. County farm boards can request the deferment of farm workers or appeal draft board rulings if the worker or his employer does not act. ROMMEL IS REPULSED Rommel tried a hard jab at the British in the area of the M areth line but was forced to retreat north of Mede- nine after the loss of much-needed tanks and men. In the central sector Franco-American troops were unofficially reported to have retaken Oafsa. RUSSIANS STILL GAINING Russian forces are forging a ring of encirclement around Vyazma, one of the strongly-held German points on the Moscow front. Vyazma is only 130 miles from Smo lensk, the German pivotal base feeding the central, north western and Leningrad fronts. Smolensk is the final Rus sian objective. Admiral Standley, U. S. ambassador to Russia, told Moscow correspondents that the Russian people were not being told t]tie whole story of American aid to Russia. He did not attribute any political motive to this fact but rather an effort to create the impression with the Russian people that they are pulling themselves through by their own boot straps. On the southern front the Russians say that the Nazis have launched a heavy counteroffensive with 25 divisions consisting of 375,000 men, 12 of which were withdrawn from western Europe, and th at eight im portant towns have been lost. Advancing 80 miles, the Russians say the Ger mans are only 12 miles from Kharkov. MORE BOMBINGS OF EUROPE RAF and American bombers are back at round-the- clock bombing of German industrial centers and subma rine bases after a day’s lapse following 11 straight days of aerial attacks. The latest places to get it were nuernberg and Munich and for the first time radio Berlin is adm itting that damage is heavy. JAPS SUFFER “MAJOR DISASTER’’ The victory of American air forces in the Battle of the Bismarck sea carried implications almost as great as the victory itself. In reporting our complete success against the Japanese convoy, General MacArthur said it could not fall to have “most im portant results” bn the enemy’s stra tegic and tactical plans—because, in addition to losing ten warships, 12 transports, 55 planes, an estimated 15,0b0 troops and unknown numbers of naval personnel, the Jap anese failed in their attem pt to reinforce their hard-pressed forces in northeast New Guinea. As a result of this “major disaster,” the Jap garrisons at Lea and Salamaua m ust now face the Allies’ New Guinea drive wtihout the supplies and reinforcements they so badly need. Under Secretary of War Patterson said the Japanese loss of 55 planes, as compared to our loss of four, was pro portionately very high, and show^ed the excellent work that American aircraft of both army and navy are doing in the РасШс. U. 8. PLANES RAID KISKA During February, in nine previously reported Ameri can air r^ids on Kiska, in the Aleutians, at least 1,000 bombs were dropped and ten enemy planes shot down.

Heavy tanks can pass over the bridges made of these pontons without fear that unequal distribution of the load will cause the pontons to turn over. They are longer than the original pon tons used and the turned up ends add a great deal to the carrying capacity and to the stability.

Red Cross Drive Sometime between now adn the end of 1043 an army of American soldiers will invade the continent of Europe In what we expect will b6 the beginning of the end. Starting from North Africa or England of the United States, or quite possibly from all three, hundreds of thou sands of our men will be ferried across waters in which the greatest submarine fleet of all time, now being readied, will lurk. From the air they will be bombed by the Luft waffe—perhaps by those Nazi aircraft which have been so mysteriously missing of late. After they land—thé majority that does land—they will seek to whip a mighty German army which has had years in which to prepare powerful fortifications against the very invasion that now is in the making. We shall win, at a cost that is incomprehensible to us now. Tens or scores of thousands of men will be killed outright. Others tens or scores of thousands will be mortally wounded, and will have to be cared for so long as they survive the misery. Even more will be wounded, but not fatally, and will need loving care. Thousands, perhaps, will be taken prisoners, even in an utimately victorious campaign. Who is going to look after these men? The Army— and the Red Cross. Who is going to help them send reassuring word to the folks at home? Who is going to see to the welfare of prisoners? Who will distribute cigarets and candy in the very lighting lines; search records to see whether John ny is dead, wounded, missing, or merely too busy and . itired to write; maintain clubs in rest areas; produce sur gical dressings; gather blood for transfusions? The Red Cross. March is Red Cross Month. Faced with the greatest challenge to merciful duty in its long history, the Red Cross this month is asking the American people for 9125,000,000. The Red Cross always has been deserving of more than its most, generous friend has done for It. This year, this very month, it (deserves even more than before to get a really big contribution from YOU. You won’t have done too much if you give until it actually, physically hurts. gQWE FVWI A JOKE A DAY Multiple Trifler “Boy, am 1 scared? I just got a letter from a man telling me if I dldn,'t stay away from his wife he would shoot me.” "Well, all you have to do Is stay away.” Yeah, but the trouble is, he didn’t sign his name.” ТН1У SURE msf us FLYiN* TH«Sir WAR O PStar Discipline—Voluntary Or Enforced In any well-ordered society some diclpline is necessary in order to restrain the unruly members. Even In the Individual, some discipline is required to keep the best qualities of the man in control of a personality. Self-disci pline is the best and most effective of all discipline, but where it is absent society m ust protect itself by imposing restraints. It is obvious at the moment that the unity and ef fectiveness of our American social order is threatened by the lack of discipline. Too many individuals, and too many groups have pushed their democratic privileges to a point of unrestrained selfishness which thrreatens our welfare almost as much as the enemy whom we fight. There is a need for the world of labor to impose some restraints upon its unruly members if labor is to retain public sympathy and its gains of the past half century. All of us know that the majority of working people ore loyal, patriotic, and doing their best to produce for home needs and army needs. The amount of stuff produced is evidence of their loyalty and service. But there are a lew, especailly among the leaders, with no sense of re- ^nsibility, and interested mainly in their own pocket- books, and the power which they can weild. Their attitudes and actions will have repercussions after the war which will not be helpful to labor. There is a loud clamor for legislation to control labor. Labor could impose its own discipline, but if it does not the government will be com pelled to do it—for the protection of labor as well as the general public. , We have a rather clear notion that the industrial leaders themselves were faced with just that problem years ago. The majority of them were honest, and willing to do tlie right thing, but they were made to suffer because of a few unruly ones, who detrmined to have things their own way. The whole group failed to impose restrictions upon its unworthy members, and the result was an up surge of rebellion against the whole economic system. The government had to do some things which the industrial minded, ieadres could have done much better, had they been so As a friend of the working pe6plc, we trust that workers everywhere will see to it that their unruly mem^ toers are disciplined, and that ail labor will accept its sac rifices for our common cause. More Pulpwood Wante« From N. C. Farms Sharpen that axe. File that saw. Begin cutting more pulp- wood for Uncle Sam. These are suggestions made to North Caro lina growers by R, W, Oraeber, extension forester at N. C. State College, The nation needs 13,000,000 cords of pulpwood In 1943 to fill the requirements of the armed service and civilians. The farmer is asiced by those in charge of war activities to enlist his saw and axe, his muscle and his woodlands. In the fight to win the war. Military requirements for pulp wood are many. It is needed for malting smoiceless powder; in rayon for parachutes; In medi cinal products for treating slclc and wounded soldiers; as blue print paper for the planning of ships and planes: as paper for shell casts;and In a thousand other new and old wartime uses. Of the recent African Invasion convoy of about 800 ships, ap proximately 300 were warships and BOO were transports, which were loaded with troops and supplies. Much of these supplies were protected by shipping con tainers made from trees. New multi-walled bags made of paper are replacing metal drums. More and more products are being shipped in itraft paper bags. There will be a shortage of pulpwood, according to Oraeber, unless every farmer with a wood- lot taices time to serve his coun try with saw, axe, team and trucic. Woods operations fit well Give To The Red Cross By Roane Waring National Commander The American Legion The month of March, 1943 has been designated by the Presi dent of the United States as Red Cross War Fund Month. I urge all members of The .American Legion to give gener. ously to this cause. The Red Cross flag is flying on every fighting front, where Red Cross field directors are with the task forces to give tra ditional service and Red Cross women woriters are at worlc in the hospitals. In every United Nations, Red Cross recreation centers have been established upon the request of U. S. military authorities. On the home front, the Red Cross aids the families of the men in the armed forces. Every peacetime service of train ing for safety and health and of preparedness to meet disaster has greatly expanded to meet the war emergency. The Red Cross represents all of us, because it is a voluntary organization о f our citizens. Upon our support depends Its ability to carry on these humane tasks in our name, which were delegated to it by the Congress of the United States. I know all Legionaires will respond to the Red Cross appeal, not alone for contributions but for service with the Red Cross chapters In their communities.

Fred M. Haig, professor of MOU ABOUT WAR NEWS operations. THE BATTLE OF THE ATLANTIO ^ Secretary of the Navy Knox, discussing the subma rine situation, told reporters that the Oermans have be tween 300 and 400 submarines available for operations In the Atlantic, He pointed out, however, that a considerable portion of these are not active, as a large percentage of their time is consumed in going to and from selected areas of operations. As for the recent RAF and USAAF bombings of Nazi submartoe bases on the coast of France, Mr. Knox said the attacks are proving effective but just how effec tive in terms of direct hits he could not say. ALLIES REOCOUPY TUNISIAN TOWNS News from Tunisia continued favorable last week, as Allied forces reocc]ipied Kasserine, Ferlana and Sbeltla. German concern over the vigor and extent of our counter attacks, said Undersecretary Paiterson, was evidenced by their employment of mines and booby traps in their re treat in the central sector, as well as by their own attadcs against the British in the north. The battle for Tunisia is divided into three fronts. In the central sector, Allied forces are pressing the w lth-^ drawing Axis troops back along the same roads they fol^w lowed in their original advance, driving on south and south west of Sbeltla to retake territories lost in the German drive a few weeks ago. In the north, the British flrst army has repulsed several enemy attacks in setbacks that cost the Axis heavily in casualties and losses. South, in the area of the Mareth line. Allied armored forces pushed ahead to engage the Oermans in infantry and tank fighting. And supporting this threefold offensive. Allied planes have been active over the entire front, bombing enemy targets from Tunis and Bizerte in the north to Qabes and the Mareth line in the south, and carrying devastating attacks against tile enemy’s equipment and forces in all three battle areas. Mr. Patterson told the press that British and Ameri can planes have been striking successfully In the Mediter ranean, against Italy, Sardinia, Sicily and Tunisia, and, citing a recent engagement in which Allied planes de stroyed 25 enemy planes with a loss of four, he said the score in aerial combat continues favorable. dairying at N, c. State College, Manure Represents An says that, In addition to size, dairymen should pay special at tention to the producUon, type, and pedigree of animals selected for breeding and for milk pro duction. Other essential require ments to be kept In mind are prepotensy, longvlty, and re productive ability. According to Haig, it should be remembered that size alone does not necessarily Indicate high milk,production efficiency. On the other hand. It is a well known fact that size, within the breed, Is one of the impotant factors In economical milk pro duction, and it is dependent both on inheritance and environment. More good heifers could be produced, except for the fact that some calve.s are stunted. Growers miss sales by not get ting heifers of good size. Haig said that the way the calf is fed after birth is just as important as having proper sized calves, if such calves are to grow into large, high-producing cows. Weight and measurements are being taken of 60 dairy caiVes In the herd of N. C, State College each month. These calves are Jerseys, Hoistelns and Geurn- seys. About two-thirds of these calves have exceeded the stand ard birth weights for their re spectives breeds, and their weights will be carefully check ed as they begin producing milk. Cattle, which are grown to suf ficient size, will mature earlier, freshen earlier, and will produce milk more economically. Important Dairy Return Manure represents an impor tant return from the dairy herd,, and on account of the present nitrogen situation, it should be most carefully preserved. John A. Arey, in charge of Dairy Extension at N. C. State College, said that this state ment holds true especially for most North Carolina farms, be cause their soils are badly in need of more organic matter, in addition to the other essential plant foods which are contained In the manure, He pointed out that the value ol manure depends to a large extent on the care which it re ceives. If it Is unduly exposed to the weather during the win ter, about one-half of its fertillz- ing value is lost through heating and leaching. Where sanitary re quirements necessitate daily hauling, is should be placed where the fertilizing elements will be utilized by some crop such as small grains or perma nent pasture. Where possible, it Is an econo- ^ mical practice to spread manure direct from the barn. Manure spreadon this month on small grains or pasture, will show much greater returns than If it is spread later. Manure is not a balanced fer tilizer, since it is lacking in phosphorous. Arey suggested the use of 50 pounds ot superphos phate with each ton of manure, as it Is hauled to the field. Say, doe, if tbia adUc foiat te \ ' M North Afrtoa, er Ouadaleaail, «pj ^ .

Reynolds of Winston-Salem, has been announced by Col. J. W. narrelson, dean of administra tion of the college and president of the Foundation. The movinf; pictures, to be made In sound and color, will be produced to ni ci North Carolina farmers in In creasing the value and output of their farms, particularly dur ing the war emergency. When completed, the pictures will be given to the State College Agricultural Exten.sion Service, lor use of this and other College Agricultural agencies in rural education activities. Mr. Reynolds, now a lieutn.aiint In the U. S. Naval Reserve on active sea duty, completed ar rangements to make the movies during a recent leave. “I am doing this," hie said, “because I think that nothing is ^^ore Important than the pro- t ictlon of food. The farmer has big Job, and needs such aid as I believe these educational mov ies can give.” Mr. Reynolds’ in terest in agriculture has been stimulated by the operation of his own large farm on which he raises the typical crops of the Piedmont section. Col. Harrelson expresses ap preciation to Mr. Reynolds -for the giit. Dermid Macleon of Winston- Salem is making the movies, with the cooperation of the of fice of P. H. Jeter, agricultural editor oi State College, and the technical assistance of Extension specialist and county farm and home agents. Mr. Maclean also photographed “North Carolina, Variety Vacationland," the film which Lt. Reynolds produced and gave to the North Carolina De partment of Conservation and Development, and “Wlnston- Salem-A Balanced Community,” a picture recently completed and presented to the City of Winston- Salem. Lt. Reynolds received a leave of absence as mayor to serve in the Navy. Pre.stne piur.s call for the pro ductlon of five pictures, all to be made on North Carolina farms. Subjects to be treated are: home gardening, swine, dairying, poultry and repair and maintenance of farm machinery. Other pictures on subjects of vital interest to North Carolina farm families as rapidly as time and the seasonal activities to be photographed will follow. Dean L. o. Schaub, director of the Extension Service, said the pictures will be of great FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Question; What are the lime requirements of peanuts Answer; ^ an u ts need lime stone both in the root zone and in the area of the land where the peanuts are forming, says Dr. E. R. Collins, who is in charge of Extension Agronomy at State College. Four hundred pounds of ground dolomltlc limestone be applied In the row and mixed with the soil with a fertilizer distributor. Burned lime, potash lime of gypsum (land plaster) may be applied along the row where needed. No Clothes Rationing; Rumors Investigated ' Acting to spike vicious rumors which have nearly cleaned out many stores in North Carolina of their clothing stoclu, the Of fice of Price Administration, the War Production Board and the Office of War Information have Joined in stating definitely that no rationing of clothes Is In present prospect. There Is no shortage of clothing now, nor of the textiles out of which clothes are made, according to these ag encies. The F. B. 1 is Investi gating reports that the rumors are Axis-inspired. Question: How can I disttag- viish blue mold in my tobacco bed Answer: The plants may show varions symptoms such as slight wilting, pale-green color, or dead leaves. The presence of gray or blue mold on the lower side of the pale-green of dead leaves Is a sure sign of the disease. This symptom distinguishes it from cold Injury, frost injury, burn from nitrate of soda, or other conditions sometimes confused with it. If the night temparature are below 45 degrees of above 65 degrees, the disease does not develop rapidly. Are all green crops for poultry nutrì- AiV( 1': ¡г ' A iN !- !i' 1 rV 'i' ‘ ‘I ' Vl I; • » (\.

State College, points out that there is a fallacious belief that anything that, is green is sat isfactory for poultry nutrition. While in the young and growing stages, most green plants prob ably have some food value. It is also likely that after a certain stage of growth, some of these plant may be highly fibrous and of Uttle food value. State College Hints For Farm Homemakers By RUTH CURRENT (N. C. State College) The thrifty housewife should know food grades. This war per iod is no time to buy a "pig in a poke." When shopping for the family’s food, it is very impor tant that you know as much as possible about your groceries be fore you part with either your money or your ration stamps. One way to know what you are buying, is to get foods with U. S. Government grades, whenever possible. Government grade are accurate. By purchasing such ^aded foods you can get what you want at the price you want to pay. Take canned fruits and vegetables, ofr example. If you get the grade-labeled can, the label tells you whether the food is of A, B. or 0 quality. The growers consider size, ripeness, freedom from blemishes, tender ness and uniformity In making up the grade. Grade C canned goods are of good quality but they are not as carefully selected as the first two grades. However, they may have the advantage in food value be cause the fruit of vegetables may have been more mature when harvested. You don’t need high- cost, Grade A peaches. If you are going to cut them for a salad or cobbler. Buying the grade that suits your use Is a simple way of cut ting down on the food budget. It is the thrifty buyer, who buys the lower grades, which are less expensive, when the fruits and vegetables are to be cut up or combine with other foods. Butter has just been put un der grading. It previously had been graded, but the grades were in numbers Instead of letters. Today all butter comes in five grades—top grade is AA, next A, then B, then C, and the lowest grade for butter is "U. S. Cook ing.” COLORED NEWS" (By MARGARET WOODRUFF) Mrs. Lilile Britton spent the weekend in Chapel Hill with her daughter, Mrs. Edward Farring ton. Henry Meroney is on the sick hst.

Funds for tlie prisoners of war projects come not only from Red Cross war funds but from qther organizations and government appropriations made available for these purposes. The foreign war relief supplies are purchased form Red Cross war funds and government appropriations. American Red Cross projects will be financed by the $125,000,000 War Fund to which the Ameri can public Is asked to contribute during the month of March. The War Fund Campaign will be conducted in every city, town, village, hamlet and rural section of the nation through the 3,755 Red Cross chapters, March 1 through March 31. Of the $64,000,000 spent bn foreign relief, more than $5,000, ООО has been expended in the relief program for American and Allied Nations prisoners of war. Through December 15, 1,040, ООО such packages had been shipped by the Red Cross. Relief has been extended to victims in bombed-out areas of Great Britain and the Middle East, also to Greek and Polish refugees in Egypt, Syria and Commander S.

Rural Women Will Pledge More‘Tood For Freedom” Mrs. Estelle T. Smith, assistant home demonstration agent at N. C. State College, has announced that all rural women In North Carolina will be given the op portunity of signing a pldege in the “Food For Freedom” cam paign, which will be held during March. Presidents of the home demon stration clubs, county federation presidents, district chairmen, members of the excutlve boards, and home demonstratton agents are all taking a part in the drive. Home demonstration club wo men, with the assistance of neighborhood leaders, will visit every family In their districts an dexplain the food situation. Mrs. Smith, said that “Live- at-Home” is not just a popular slogan but is an idea which should reveive the serious con sideration of every farm family throughout the State. Plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables dur ing season and enough home- canned products for the remain der of the year, will relieve the strain on rationed foods, and guarantee an adequate supply for the armed forces and our Allies. Rt^ral women are asked to make plans for about one ton of food for each member of their families for the year. As a res ult, the Victory Garden will be a No. 1 project on every farm. Meeting for canning, bringing and drying foods will be held, Thousands of home demonstra- tino women throughout North Carolina have produced and con served enough food for the en tire fomlly in the past, and these leaders will atempt to make the “Live-at-Home” program a real ity on every farm in 1043.

YUGOSLAV GUERILLAS AID UNITED NATIONS COOLEEHEE NEWS FOR- Cattle Loans Personal Loans Tax Loans see Vs Bank Loans Cost Less BANK OF DAVIE ■ A small army of busy women will soon be at, work through out our community with a com mon goal in mind. It will be their job to contact every man and woman in Cooleemee and vicinity. It will be their pleasure to ask these men and women for contributions to raise Coolee- mee’s share of Davie county’s quota of $4800 for the Red Cross war fund. Each woman feels that the people she contacts will be more than glad to give all they can to this phase of the war effort. As you might suppose there is a reason for the high spirit with which these women are be ginning their work. There are between 125 and 200 of our own boys who are iti some branch of the armed service. Two of our young women are also serving. And who would refuse to give them every bit of help and en joyment that may come their way through the Red Cross? The fund already has a won derful beginning. The Washing ton camp of the Patriotic Sons of America has just given a check for $25. This contribution was unsolicited. On last Thursday evening, T. C. Pegram, who Is chairman of the Red Cross war fund in Cooleemee, called a meeting of all the women he has asked to help in soliciting contributions to the fund. Most of the 77 women were present and they received final Instructions and materials so that everything will be In readiness when the drive actually begin March IB. The proposal was made that all who can give the equivalent of one day’s work, especially those who have a son In service. Is that too much to ask? NO! And the reason Is that In wat- tlme the Red Cross devotes Its entire effort to the men In serv ice and to the families of these men. Anyone In these two groups should feel free at any time to go to the Red Cross for whatever help is needed. This organization Is the only one authorized by the govern ment as a connecting link be tween the boys In camp and their homes. Your contribution may mean the difference In your boy uomlng home or not coming home in case of sickness in the family. When a request Is sent in asking for a boy to come home on account of the sickness of some member of his family, an investigation is made by tfte Red Cross before the boy is al lowed to come home. If he needs it, he Is given money for train or bus fare. It is through the Red Cross that we learn the whereabouts of many of our boys who perhaps have been reported missing. These and many others are the worthy uses ot which your money will be put. We want oUt boyi to know that Cooleemee and Davie coun> ty are behind them one hundrM per eent, lo— "LET'S GlVlj DOUBLS THIS YEAR."

MCMAHAN PASSES MARCH 11 Fletcher R. McMahan, 82, re tired farmer and prominent church and civic leader, died at his home at Route 2, last Thurs day afternoon. Ho had been ill for ,sometime. Mr. McMahan was the last surviving cliild of the late Har man H. and Jane Brock McMa han, members of pioneer fami lies In Davie County. He spent his entire life in this comminilty. Educated at Old Union Acad emy at Farmington and at old Trinity College, ho taught school for a few yeai's but engaged In farming In most of his active years. Ho was a member of Wes ley Chapel Methodist Church and for nearly all his adult life served the church oltlier as a steward, trustee, Sunday School Superintendent or choir leader. Mr. McMahan was married June 10, 1800, to Miss Tabltha Anderson, who survlvles. Other survivors Include five children, Mrs, Wade R, Bowden oi West Haven, Conn.; Mrs. Hugh W. Dixon of Pleasant Garden; C. Harmon McMahan of the home, and Misses Mary and Margaret McMahan of Greensboro and the home. Nine grandchildren also survive. Funeral services were held at 5 o'clock Saturday aftrnoon at Wesley Chapel Church, with Rev. J, W, Vestal and Rev, Tom Hig gins officated. Interment was in the church graveyard. Pall bearers were nephews of the deceased, T. H, Redman and F, H, Bahnson of Farmington, W, H. McMahan and W, T. Miller of Winston-Salem, J. H. Rich of Chapel Hill, and J. H. Swing ot route 2, Mocksville. Good Progress on Red Cross Drive The Red Cross war fund in Davie county is progressing nicely, according to J. C. San ford, chairman. Many citizens have Joined the $100 club, as well as the $50, $25, SIO and $5 clubs, he said. In almost every case this represented giving double or more than ever before. While complimenting the good start, Mr. Sanford urges every one to continue to give freely if Davie meets Its quota of ¡54,800. "With our neighboring towns already re porting having ' raised not only their quota but far be yond It, we must at least meet ours to stay in good com pany,” he added. Pointing out that Davie has a long way to go to meet its quota, Mr. Sanford cautioned against over-optimlsm. “On the second day of the drive most of the large contribu tions are In and wc are still far from our goal,” he said. “If Davie makes the !$4,800 quota, every one must give liberally and all workers must give every individual In their territory a chance to contrib ute.” CROSS WORKERS HOLD MEETING More than 50 Davie county Red Cross workers met at the courthouse last Monday night and completed plans for the drive hi tills county during this month for $4,800. Archie K. Davis of Winston- Salem outlined the work the Red Cross was doing through out the world during war times and emphasized that the need was m,ultiplled on every front at home and abroad. Robert S. McNeill also spoke briefly on the far-flung, essential work the Red Cross is doing. All of those present pledged their best efforts towards meet ing the Davie goal by April 1. J. C. Sanford, county chair man, presided at the enthusias tic meeting. Among the com munity chairmen and workers present were: T, C, Pegram, Cooleemee: Dr. P.- H, Mason, Mocksville; Miss Vada Johnson, Farmington; Mrs, G. V, Greene, Fork; Mrs, K. O. Minor, Smith Grove-Redland; Miss Ruth Graves, Turrentlne; George Evans, Center-Calahan; Miss Florence Mackie, home demon stration clubs; James Murfee, colored workers. The latter an nounced that he had 13 col ored workers In the campaign. Under this new revenue bill we’ll soon have dehydrated tax payer. Secretary Hull said he agreed with British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden, now in Washington for a confer ence on war and peace problems, that a short war is not in prospect. Secretary Hull has in efiect asked Russia and China to Join in talks about the war and peace. Meanwhile two Republican and two Democratic sena tors are now drafting a bill proposing an immediate con ference of United Nations on a five-point program to win the war and guarantee the peace by establishment of ma chinery for peaceful settlement of postwar international disputes and creation of an International police force that would suppress any future aggression.. The broad principles of the plan were approved by the president at a Sunday white house conference. , RUSSIANS LOST KHARKOV The Russians acknowledged Monday night that Khar kov, the rail hub of all southern Russia, had been recap tured by the Germans. Loss of this great industrial cen ter is a serious blow to the Allies. Somecomfort, however, may be taken in the fact that the Nazis withdrew reserves which will make spring offensive harder and also that the city had already been wrecked by the Germans before they evacuated It earlier this year. In the Smolensk i-egion, however, the Russians report continued gains and this powerful German base is expected to be under seige shortly. SLOWDOWN BATTLE IN TUNISIA Reports from London hint that the zero hour may be near for a climatic Allied offensive to drive the Axis out of Tunisia. General Eisenhower’s headquarters reported Al lied planes violently pounding Rommel’s dug-in positions in the Mareth line and Allied patrols active along the whole southern front. SUBMARINE MENACE The submarine menace continues to be the major prob lem of the Allies and for the first time this country, Canada and Great'Britain are studying the problem jointly to find a solution. Some observers think Hitler has between 300 and 400 subs; that they are concentrated in mid-Atlantic and that with spring weather the menace will be harder to solve. Britain’s first lord of the admiralty said the British navy was coming close to delivery and equiprnent of the fleet with helicopters which can rise almo,st horizontally from ships to combat U-boats.

Hampton Rich of Chapel Hill presented Monday to Davie county two Davie pop lars. These shrubs are cuttings from the original Davie poplar on the campus of the Univer sity of North Carolina—the tree under which William R. Davie and others met to seleci the site of our state university. One of the poplars will be planted on the court, house grounds and will be appropriate ly marked since it is of such his toric Interest. Davie county was named for the founder of the university. The other will be planted on the campus of the William R. Davie school which was named for this great historic character. Ambassador Standely , Has come in right handily. Pino Grange Has Meeting The Pino Community Grange met in regular session last Mon day night with Master C. H. McMahan presiding. Goals for the yeab were re viewed as previously outlined by a group of Grange officers of the county with the help of L. L. Ray, acting lecturer of the State Grange, and D. C. Rankin, county agent. The topic of gardening was discussed by J. P. Essie empha sizing the importance of this year’s garden, and Mrs. W. E. Kennen, ‘J. W. Davis, J. H, Swing, c, H. McMahan and others answering questions which were submitted by va rious members. Refreshments were served by the Kenneth Taylor family and as usual the social hour ended with recreational gamea. PAGE 2 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. C.) ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, MARCH 19,1943 Farmer Has His Troubles Producing Wartime Crops We hear a lot about "conver sion to war production" these days. Factories that once made fur niture and household wares and farm machinery are now making airplanes and guns and tanks, Everybody knows about the.re- markable conversion of industry to a war basis but the less spec tacular, although equally amaz ing, story of how America's farms have "converted” to the production of crops most needed In wartime is not so welt known This account Is Intended for those who live In towns and vil lages and who may not be close ly in touch with what our farm ers, are doing. Farmers began to “convert" their flelds to war production about a year ago before the gen eral conversion of Industry, ac cording to outstanding agrlcul ttiral authorities. The word “convert” may be somewhat mis leading, because in farming the changes were not like those In Industry. Farmers aré using es sentially the same machinery, tools, and basic methods to grow crops now as they did in 1940, or before. They still plow the land, prepare it, sow It, cul tivate it, and harvest it very much as they have for years, with the exception that In 1943 they face tremendous obstacles which must be overcome to meet the year's food goals. What farmers did to convert their acreage to war production was to plant, and till, and har vest the particular kinds of crops that are most necessary to sustain a flghting army and to supply the numerous other needs of the military forces. Civilian needs were not forgot te n ‘by any . means, but crop planning centered around the requirements of our armed ef fort. HERE’S THE RECORD ^ Proof that American farmers really did get their production Into “high gear" Is to be found In Secretary of Agriculture A typical commander of Canadian ski-troops is shown on the Job. In one hand he holds his map and in the other a compass. Exercises often cover many miles of snowy territory. Claude R. Wlckard's statement that agricultural production in 1942 was the largest on record- more than 25 per cent above the 1935-39 average. Mr. Wickarxl said that there are more cattle and milk cows on the farms than ever before; stocks of wheat and corn are at an all-time high; and production of poul try, eggs, peanuts, and many other things are at a peak. Still, according to Mr. Wick ard, agriculture is not entirely on a full war basis. Wartime farm production must be di rected Into the most critically needed channels. Farmers need a great deal of help on many pressing problems. Weather con ditions have not been as favor able as last year, and there are many other reasons why food production may not be as great as It was in 1942. ' FARMERS HAVE TROUBLES Townspeople may sometimes think that the farmer Is better oil because he usually “has enough to eat” and the average resident of town or city may not be familiar with the many prob- BRING US YOUR POULTRY WE BUY EVERY OAY IN THE WEEK HEAVY HENS, LB........ .25c LEGHORNS, LB. ; . 2 0 c ROOSTERS, LB....'......1 2 c MOCKSVILLE POULTRY CO. Plione 175 , Mocksville, N. C. lems that vex the farmer. He has his share, you may be cer tain. For example—right now the farmer is not sure that his re turns wil Icoyer his costs. He is as patriotic as anyone else and he would not want to make ab normally high profits. Neverthe less, he must make a reasonable return on his investment of time and money and he must have assurance that the labor to care for his crops and to har vest them will be found. LABOR 18 PROBLEM The labor shortage on our farms is one of the most acute problems In the whole food pro duction situation. Last fall the war manpower commission is sued instructions to selective service boards to defer essential dairy, poultry, and livestock workers. This policy was later extended to all essential agri cultural workers. Still the num ber of farm workers is inade quate and several steps will have to be taken. They Include: 1. Recruiting of a “land army" of 3,500,000 older men, women, boys and girls, and emergency workers from the towns. 2. Recruiting and training by short courses at agricultural colleges,—men—for—year-round work on farms. 3. Recruiting, training, and transporting seasonal and year- round"labor. 4. Helping farmers Increase the productivity of their present farms or getting re-located on better farms. Secretary Wickard has said: “The need for skilled farm la bor may be so great that as a last resort it may be necessary to ask the armed forces to give temporary furloughs to skilled farm workers, particularly farm workers who can operate har vesting machinery." SHORT ON MACHINERY Shortage of machinery is an other serious problem of the farmer and an additional threat to the food goals of 1943. Ssteel and iron are critical materials and have to be saved in every way possible. And yet, the army and the civilian population can not be fed if farmers cannot get machinery. Recently the war production board authorized an Increase in production of farm machinery from about 23 per cent of 194 production to about '40 per cent of 1940 production. It is expected that considerably more farm machinery will be manufactured in 1944 than this year. The quota for farm ma chinery repairs has' been in creased to about 180 per cent of the 1940 level. In spite of all that can b e done, however, farmers will probably not get as much machinery, and equip ment as they need—which will be a great handicap to over come if we reach our food goals.

"On the basis of present Indi cations, the fighting front re quirements of military and lend- lease use for the various groups of foods In 1943 will take the followU^g percentages of our total output; 20 to 25 per cent of the beef (virtually all of which Is for American armed forces), 30 to 35 per cent of pork, 25 to 30 per cent of eggs, 15 to 20 per cent of butter, 40 to 45 per cent of cheese, 40 to 45 per cent of, condensed and evaporated milk, 25 to 30 per cent of lard, 20 to 26 per cent of other edible fats and oils, 50 to 60 per cent of canned fruits, 35 to 45 per cent of dried fruits, 45 to 50 per cent of canned vegetables, 10 to 15 per cent of wheat, and 15 to 20 per cent of rice. “While sending these large supplies to the fronts, civilians will have for themselves an even larger supply than in 1942 of M aH a't ll«v«ng« Smashing Nazi ships and transport planes trying to get supplies to the Axis troops in Tunisia, the island of Malta is now evening up the score after the long and terrific pounding “ tt“has so heroically-endured.

'■;т FRIDAY, MARCH 19,19^3 THE MOCKSVILLE (N. С.) ENTERPRISE PAGES CONSUMERS TO GET •18 POINTS EACH FOR HEAT RATION Price Administrator Prentiss M. Brown announced that rat ioning of meat, canned meats, canned fish, butter, cheese, edi ble fats and oils will start at midnight, March 28, and that Individual consumers will be al- loted 16 ration points a week to cover all these foods. As with point rationing of canned fruUs and vegetables, the consumer will spend his points among* the various items as he chooses. Point values for particular pro ducts will be announced during the week of March 22. Secretary of Agriculture Claude IB. Wlckard, who authorized the new program, said accurate esti mates of the amounts of each item a consumer will get a week are not posaible. But he listed theM approximate rations as the likely average in the next lew months: 'Meat—2 to pounds; butter —4 ^ ounces', lard—4 ounces; margarine—11-3 ounces; Cheese —slightly less than 2 ounces; and shortening—3 ounces. The Office of Price Adminis tration said special provision will be made under the meat- butter-cheese-fats program for ranchers, farmers, mining prosr pectors and others who will usu ally buy supplies in bulk for use over long periods. City dwellers who wish to pur chase meat for storage in fro zen food lockers presumably could take advantage of this provision. The red ration stamps in war ration book No. two will be used for all purchases under the new program. Consumers seeking special consideration must apply to ration boards. They will re ceive a “bulk point” certificate allowing them to make quantity purchases, but they must first surrender to the board the equivalent number of red stamps—before those coupons normally would become valid. The program will leave only a few unrationed food items, such as fresh and frozen fish, eggs, milk, cream, poultry, bread, cereals, fresh fruits and fresh vegetables. Wlokard’a estimates of prob able weekly rations indicate that U. S. citizens will get about twice as much meat and fats as the British,,but only half the amount of cheese available to them. OPA officials Insisted, how ever, that the U. S. ration will not compel any sharp cut In cheese consumption. A two-ounce allotment represents an annual per capita consumption of about 5.7 pounds. During the 1935-39 period, the average consumption was 5.6 pounds, but last year It jumped to 0.5 pounds. It was further emphasized that the es timated ration is an average, and that heavy cheese eaters can boost their consumption by cut ting expenditures for other Items In the program. Brown meanwhile announced a new plan to combat the grow ing complexlUes in rationing and price control with a “hu manizing” policy carried out through OPA “appeal courts" that would hear citizens’ com plaints. The court would be composed of leading businessmen, lawyers, labor leaders and other prom inent citizens. They would hold public hearings and findings would be submitted to Brown for. final approval. Items included in the new pro gram; All fresh, frozen, cured, smoked and canned meats and meat products derived from beef, veal, lamb, mutton and pork, as well as "variety meats,” sausages, hot dogs and souse. Canned fish and canned shell fish. The tSMef natural and process ed cheese and most derivatives but not cottage cheese and cream cheeses. Most edible fats and oils, in cluding butter, lard, margarine, shortening, salad and cooking oils (excluding mayonaise and salad dressings). During the first, five weekly periods, red stamps from ration book No. two will become valid and expire as follows: Wk. Of Red Stamps Expires March 29 A-16 points April 30 April 4 B-16 points April 30 April 11 C-16 points April 30 April 18 D-16 points April 30 April 25 E-16 points to l>e an nounced. Brown said meat sales will not be frozen in anticipation of the start of rationing, and It has not been decided whether to freeze other items. He added that consumers will not be asked to declare stocks on hand of the various foods, as was the case with coffee and canned goods. The yet-undecided point val ues will depend on available sup plies and consumer preferences he said. Meat cuts with large amounts of bone and fat gener ally will have lower valuation than those with little or no waste. Rationing of meats, cheese, butter, fats and oils to restau rants and hotels will follow the system in effect for those estab lishments on canned goods. Their allotments will be flxed as a per centage of their December^ 1942, sales, and will be cut approxi mately to the same extent as individual consumer's allot ments.

C., as Second- Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879, THEIR EXISTENCE DEPENDS ON RED CROSS An American pilot of a Flying Fortress who was shot down in Europe and became a German prisoner recently wrote that he was being “treated decently” and was per mitted to play softball, soccer and bridge, but “our exist ence depends on Red Cross aid.” It is the latter clause that divulges the truth of conditions in military prison camps In the lands overrun by Adolf Hitler. Many thousands of American boys are held in Japa nese and German camps. The nature of war makes it in evitable th a t’Still other thousands will be taken prisoners in the changing fortunes of battle along the road to final victory. Surely enough Is known about the barbarian prac tices of the Oermans and Japanese to prove beyond any doubt that prisoners will escape the horrors of starvation and disease only if assistance from the outside is made pos-; Bible. On the Red Cross alone falls this gigantic task. Under the terms of the Gteneva Prisoners of War Convention of 1929 the International Red Cross is the oflicial agency for communicating with prisoners. Most of the belligerent na tions have announced their intention of abiding by the convention. The list includes Japan and Germany. Red Cross delegates are permitted to inspect camps in which prisoners are held and they have the means to make representations to responsible authorities as well as to Red Cross headquarters in Geneva. The Japanese have kept their, word, allowing Red Cross representatives to visit camps in'Tokyo, Shanghai and Hong Kong, to inspect liv ing conditions and sanitary arrangements and to talk with prisoners. The Red Cross protects the life and health of prisoners of war. However, it can carry on only so long as it has suf ficient funds. Davie County’s quota for 1943 is $4800. It will be oversubscribed if each citizen does his duty. Did We Hear A Demand For Equality? It seems to us that we have heard—or did we Just hear about it—that the women of America wanted equality with the men? That Is, equality of privileges. But there are some more equalities to which the gals are entitled, but it seems a bit shy about claiming them. There are responsibilities which go with privilege. We have heard earnest appeals over the radio for women to join the WAACS, but the last reports showed that the women were slow about enlisting. They were way behind the men in a proportionate numebr of enlistments. This war is a war of peoples, without regard to sex. The women have their jobs to do, and, unfortunately for all of us, those jobs take them into real tasks and exposures to danger. The women who have gone into service have given a good account of themselves — nurses. Red Cross workers, or on the many production jobs. They have proven to be as patriotic, as capable and efficient as the men. The only difficulty lies in the fact that so few, comparatively, have volunteered for those branches of auxllliary service now open to them. We confess to some surprise at the lack of volunteers for the WAACS. The nifty uniforms are stunning and captivating. If, maybe, the ladies know how they feel at sight of a young gallant in his uniform, they might mul tiply that several times and get the male’s reaction to the isight of a WAAC in uniform. Did He Not Go Out On Strike The chaplain from one of our hospitals was describing a young fellow in the hospital. He was severly wounded in North Africa. Rushed to the rear, he was given first aid, and then sent on to a hospital. One leg was amputated, and the other was in serious condition. They treated him sufficiently to enable him to be sent to an American hos pital. There was a large hole in his back, and for months he lay in plaster casts. The doctors feared that the other leg would have to be amputated, but so far they have managed to save it. So, there he is. On a soldier’s pay, and after having left a good job, he stood the rigors of training, the dan gers and hardships of fighting. The Chaplain told the story quietly, but he choked when he told of the lad’s heroism. Said the chaplain: “He never complained. He has fought and fought hard, both on the battlefield, and in his suffering, but he is glad to have had some share l|i fighting for his country”. We are mindful of the fact that millions of workers have stood loyally behind that soldier. We know that he is grateful to them. But what about those grabbers, vhoard- ers, complalners, strikers? Put them alongside of this lad and draw your own picture. CORNATZER Mrs. Floyd Frye is conflned to her room with flue.

'' FARMERS NEED PERMITSTO DELIVER MEAT Farmers .who kill animals for home use do not need a slaugh ter permit, but they are required to secure one if they deliver any part of the meat to others, says I. C. Schaub, director of exten sion at N. C. State College. The Government Issued three permit orders which become effective after midnight March 31. They require: (1) All live stock slaughters who sell meat, including farmers and local butchers, to operate under a slaughter permit system and, as an aid to enforcement,, to stamp their permit number at least once on each wholesale cut; (2) All livestock dealers to obtain permits to buy and sell livestock and to keep complete records of their operations (Farmers are not required to obtain dealer permits, but they are asked to keep records of their purchases and sales); (3) All slaughterers, operating under Federal in spection, to set aside designated percentages o f their production for war uses. The stamping of all meat is specifically designed to halt the black marked. It also acts to curb the sale of meat from diseased animals. According to Schaub, growers/ who obtain permits <ot the delivery of meat directly to consumers,'may comply with the permit requirements by attach ing tags, showing the permit number, to the meat they de liver. The dealer in livestock gets no stamp of any kind, but he must keep full records oh all sales. The authorities have requested all livesock producers, packers, dealers, health officers, and con sumers to aid In eliminating the illegal slaughtering, selling and distribution of meats. JOEL R.

Grin- nelis, veterinarian for the North Carolina Experiment station, suggests that all sows be given liberal, well-balanced grain ra tions and proper supplements before the pigs are born. If any pigs show loss of appetite, rough hair, or lowered vigor, they should be seperated from the rest of the Utter and hand-fed. Corn syrup, fed In proper pro portions, has been beneficial but it should be fed under proper guidance to prevent scours. Question: Is it worthwhile growing herbs Just for season ing? Answer: Home demonstra tion specialist answer, “yes”. Herbs give zest and flavor to many foods that might otherwise be dull, and they help bring changes when the same foods are used frequently. Parsley In the herb border Is a e^ood source of vitamins A and C. Chives for onion flavor, thyme and sage for stuffings, basil . for to mato soup and mint for summer— dclnlia__Big__recom- mended. Your neighbor might plant dill for pickles, ome lets and salads; majoram for soups and salads; and rosemary for lamb and veal. Then, you might exchange herbs ,wlth your neighbor. Question: Are there any good chemical weed killers? Answ<er: Sodium chlorate sulphuric acid, carbon dissul- phide, and common salt are the ■best four. The first two kill the plants above the ground and the other two kill plants below the ground. Full instructions should be obtahied for any oi these treatments. With sodium chlo rate, for Instance, a solution should be made up, one pound to the gallon, and sprayed upon the plants. This chemical Is very active and It must at all times be~kept~avi^y irom ^ire'and never should be stored near sul phur. With sulphuric acid, a 1 to 2 percent solution is sprayed on the plants. Care should be taken in mixing the acid and the water. This spray Is to be applied only in dry weahter.

O n THAT DAY when you fell into the hands of the enemy, a curtain dropped, shutting out the world you had known and loved. You crossed off the days one by one. Time blurred into a gray and miserable monotony. You wondered dismally whether you had been forgotten—whether you would ever again see familiar faces, hear voices you had once loved. Then one day, the curtain lifted, for a thrilling moment, when a parcel from home with the Red Cross on it was placed in your hands. You opened it with trembling fingers. Out poured things you had not seen or tasted for months. American foods you had dreamed about all those hungry nights. American tobacco such as you had never hoped to enjoy again, and other thoughtful com forts to make life a little easier. ThankGod, you were «»/forgotten! Back home, your people cared. Thinking of you, feeling for you, and striving to reach you through'every available means. Thank God for the Red Cross! From that day on, you resolved to live through this. In the new strength of knowing that you were not forgotten, whatever hap pened, you would endure! CANA Mr. and Mrs. Asbury Smith were Sunday dinner guests of Mrs. S. C. Hutchens of Cana.

The three orders issued by Secretary Wickard provide; (1) That all slaughterers Including farmers slaughtering for sale and butchers, must operate under a (Continued on page eight) Americans will be allowed, starting Monday, to buy a maximum of 21-2 pounds of steak or 31-5 pounds of ham burger per person per week under rationing. This allow- ance is about twice as generous as that in any, foreign country. Actually, most people will buy less because they will want to use some of the same coupons for butter, lard, cheese or canned fish. They will have 16 points to spmd per week at an average coupon cost of 8 points per pound for the whole group of foods. Elsewhere on this page Is an official table of point values. ' The new program will affect the lives of Americans more than any other type of rationing so far; The meat ration is more liberal than that for processed foods. Fam ilies that have been able to afford lots of meat may find their ratios only a fraction of their customary purchases but in some of the poorer classes the ration may exceed what they may be able to afford. Restaurants will continue to serve without consumer coupons but their supplies are rationed and officials are, considering legal limits on portions. Only farmers are exempt, being authorized to eat as much as they desire of their own produce. If, however, they sell to outside consumers they must collect coupons. • A typical budget, per person per week, probably will be two pounds of meat plus perhaps a quarter pound of butter and a quarter pound of cheese. USE RED STAMPS The new plcm goes into effect at 12:01 a. m., Monday. During the first week, each person must use the red A stamps in his numlaer two book (the one in which blue stamps are used for canned goods) to buy meat except poultry and game, edible fats and oils, except olive oil and salad dressings, cheese except soft and perishable cheeses such as cottage cheese, and canned fish or shell fish. Meats are rationed whether fresh, frozen, cooked or cured. The following week, any left over A’s plus the red B stamps may be used, and in the third week the left over , A’s and B’s plus the red 0 stamps. The same carryover is provided in the fourth week, but all four weeks’ stamps ex pire together on April 30. Procedure after that remains to be determined. At least during April, this will c^use great variance in weekly purchases, since some people may want to save some of their early-month coupons for a splurge in the flnal week of April. However, the real purpose of this system of accumulat ing coupons for the first month is to give a fair break to people in some communities where meat or butter may be especially scarce in the early part of the month. The red A coupons will give each person—even babies (Continued on page 4) , Pvt. Thomas I. Shore, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Shore, of Cana, Davie county, «pent a short leave with his fwnily.

ODT ASSURES FARMERS AMPLE GAS ALLOTMENTS FOR ALL TRUCK NEEDS Farmers may schedule their 1043 crops with the assurance that they will be able to obtain enough gasoline for all necessary truck operations, local fuel sup plies permitting, Joseph S. East man, director of the office of de fense transportation,, stated to day. I “The OD'^’s mileage control program for commeroial motor vehicles Is completely flexible,” Mr. Eastman said. "Farmers may request adjustment of their cer- tiflcates of war necesstty when ever conditions warrant," Adjustments Possible • Such requests for gasoline, load or mileage adjustment should be made to the farm transportation committees of the VSDA county war boards. These committees are composed of the farmers’ neighbors and their recommendations will be accepted by the ODT district of fice making the adjustment. If a farmer’s allotment Is still Insufficient after an adjust ment, he may appeal through his farm transportation commit tee to hlB ODT district office, or he may appeal directly to the ODT district office. A flnal ap peal tan be made to his ODT regional manager. Emergency gasoline rations may be obtained Irom local war price and ration ing boards while the requests for adjustment or appeals are being considered. ^‘Hence," Mr. Eastman said, “no farmer need restrict his 1943 acreage because the pres ent gasoline or mileage allot ments on his certificate of war jieccsslty are InsuiTlclent for an expansion of his operations." Few New Trucks At the same tmle, Mr. East man pointed out the Increased necessity for farmers to care- lully husband their present trucks and tires and to eliminate all waste mileage from their truck operations. 'There are very few trucks ¡and trailers left in the civilian stockpile," Mr, Eastman said. "The rubber situation Is equal ly critical and Impose similar re sponsibilities upon all truck op erators to conserve their tires aM,iMufiOP_the M »lmum.the number of miles which they op erate empty or partially loaded,” he emphaslzedr The ODT recently moved to make It unnecessary for farm- icrs to visit their ralton boards In person to pick up quarterly "T" rations, Mr. Eastman point ed out. Under a procedure announced February 24, all truck operators holding single unit certlflcates of war necessity will have their ihird and fourth quarter gaso line ration coupons mailed to them, provided they bring their icertlflcates to their local ratlon- smg board once before July 1, .18943, for recording of the cor rect gallonage for these two (Quarters, FARMINGTON Mrs, Roby Shore entertained at an old fashioned quilting Mon day at the home of her parents, Mr, and Mrs, F.

ENTERPRISE PAGES WAVES SEEK 3,000 WOMEN TO SERVE FROM THIS STATE (Editor’s Note: The article be low was written by Lt. Cmdr. Charles B. Neely, offlccr-in charge of North Carolina's Navy recruiting. It was written especi ally for all women reader?) of this new.spaper between the ages •f 20 and 36.) By C. B. NEELY, Lt. Cmdr., «. 8. N. H. With the help of The Mlcks- vllle Enterprise the Navy Re cruiting Service has undertaken one of the most important jobs ot Its career—that of enlisting 3,000 North Carolina women for duty with the WAVES. Some are prone to believe that the WAVES program is not so vital as pictured by the Navy De- partmept. The idea that the WAVES program is, shall we say, unnecessary Is the most mis taken idea that we have ever run against. Naturally, the Navy does not —and never will—expect her wo men volunteers to see combat duty. But that does not lessen the Importance of women blue jackets. It's a known fact that men are dlrely needed at sea— but. It’s also a fact that five men are needed “on the beach” to keep one man at sea. The WAVES have been de signated for many of those shore Jobs.They can do the jobs just as well, just as efficiently, just as quickly as men. Consequently, their enlistment medns another sailor for the firing line. Women have long been In the service of foreign countries— both our enemies and our allies. The Japanese have them flying planes in combat; the Oermans have them doing every type of work. En<;land’s women auxilia ries have played a large part in Britain’s war effort. We’re in an all-out war against an all-out enemy, and that is why the Navy is callln on the women of America. But, from a personal stand point, the Navy has everything to offer WAVES volunteers. The pay is good; women are guaran- First aid on the trail. All of the Canadian ski-troopers are trained in first aid and a medi cal officer accompanies them on the trail. Here a ski pole is used as splint. teed that they won’t leave the continental limits of the United States; it offers the women the job they’ll be proud to do; and it offers training equal to two years’ college. There are many women today who are seperated from their husbands because of the war. They need—and want—some thing constructive to do to pass away the time. Those women should investigate the WAVES. Every married woman is eligible for enlistment, as well as single women, except the mothers of children under 18 and the wives of Navy men. Age limits for en listed WAVES are 20 to 30. Edu cation requirements are light— women only need have two years’ high sthool training to qualify. With the cooperation of this newspaper, a drive is being made to contact as many interested women as possible. A coupon is being printed elsewhere which needs only to be filled out and mailed to the Navy Recruiting Station, Raleigh. Full details will be sent by return mail—but no body is placed under any obli- BRING US YOUR POULTRY WE BUY EVERY DAY IN THE WEEK HEAVY HENS, LB. 25c LEGHORNS, LB. 20c ROOSTERS, LB. | 2 c MOCKSVILLE POULTRY CO.

However, If circum stances make it necessary that a woman be discharged, full con sideration will be given her ap plication. Otherwise, she works under the same privileges which are accorded service men. She wears the smart snappy Navy blue uni form of the WAVES. Her pay runs with that of Navy men— and usually, it amounts to more than she made in civilian life. Most WAVES live on subsis tence allowances, which amounts to $2.75 per day or about $84 peF month. That is in addition to her salary, which is $78 per month for the lowest petty of ficer rating—and more for high er ratings. The petty officer pay scale, not counting all llviing cxpcnces, is; Petty officer, third class-$78; Petty officer second class-$96; Petty officer, first class-$114; Chief petty officer-$126. Promotions are fast in the WAVES, and, in most cases auto matic. Let’s consider what a wo man will make after she has reached the rating of petty of ficer first class. Her base pay is $114, and her subsistence allow ance is $84 per month, That totals a neat $198 per month— which Is a pretty fair salary and a comparatively easy one to achieve. For her training, a WAVE is sent to a college or university for four month. Immediately up on her arrival, she is issued a full imiform—and then her train ing begins. She may-Choose her type of training, insofar as possible. She may prefer radio, typing, or any of the other two-score trades which WAVES perform. At any rate, she will be well on her way towards becoming a Navy specialist—and, at the same time, getting training which will be very valuable to her when the war is over. That’s the work which has been cut out for 3,000 North Carolina women. Every woman would be wise to investigate, Please let me suggest to every woman who wants to help her country—and herself—that she clip the coupon elsewhere in this edition and mall It to me. The Navy will be pleased to talk bus iness with you. CONSERVATION FARM NEWS By G. W.

FRIDAY, MARCH 26,1943 Stability Needed The American people could contribute much towards the winning of the war If they were willing to face the realities of conditions, and to maintain a' consistent at titude of courageous determination. We are disposed to fall into the mood of the hour and the latest news broad cast. A few victories in Russia, and we are taking it for granted that the war is over. Some severe reverses, and we doubt the outcome of the war. Such an attitude is a rev elation of the sort of morale in America which delights the heart of Hitler and his gang. Likewise, we blow hot and cold, in regard to our allies, and Hitler again rejoices. We should face the whole thing realistically and frank ly, but with the constant determination tp win. Germany will not be defeated easily. Germany has food, a vast army, supplies drawn from all over Europe and the conqured peoples are unable to give much assistance in defeating Hitler. So, if we wish victory we mush work, save, sacrifice, light; we must hav« full cooperation between the Allied Nations, and leave discussion until the. end of the battle. It is, of course, necessary to have some notion of future cooperation, but we shall have to be content with some broad statements now, and take up the details later. We shall have to have victory before we can discuss peace intelligently. No matter what political differences there may be between the United Nations, there is one thing upon which we are all united — we know that If any of Us survive, Hitler must be whipped, and by this time we ought to know whait it is going to take to whip him. The end of the war is not In sight. A JOKE A DAY Hauntiiif Publishers "How did you get your start as a ghost writer?” ‘Haunting publishing houses.” XSRSAHID вОМЮМС . OOWB НЕЯВ СЯ1Ш>МЕ1'^ ^hat Do The Soldiers Think? Something which the self-interested people forget is what the soldiers are thinking about In regard to the folks back home. What the soldiers think now Is going to have a lot to do with the country when the war is over. Here is a letter from a chap in the Air Corps which is sug gestive: “Dear Dad”, he writes, “Am I mad. I have just heard over the radio that th e -----------aircraft workers have halted production on aircraft. Higher wages, Hal Let some of them try fifty dollars per month. As bad as we need aircraft, they slow down production just because they feel they are not getting enough money. Looks to me as if they would consider just what the men on the lighting front are doing, where money Isn’t the issue, but there it is lives. The men in the army are going to be plenty sore. The--------^people have a minimum wage of sixty-’two cents an hour, and we in the army have a maximum (for enlisted men) of seven cents per hour. We are on twenty-four hour alert and are subject to call day or night". There is more in the same strain—but it does show how the soldiers feel. Madame Chaing Kai-Shek When House Speaker Rayburn, in introducing Madame Chaing to the Congress, described her as, “one of the most outstanding women in the universe", he was not merely indulging in oratlcal gestures; he was stating a fact. This Chinese woman, educated In America, stands high among all the great of our time, and of any time. She has not arrived at this place over any easy road.' She has paid the price in work, suffering and sacrifice. • The presence in America of this great woman should serve to banish a notion long tolerated by peoples who em phasize racial and national superiorities. The absurdity of such notions is seen in Hitler’s claim that the Germans are the superior people and destined to rule the earth. But Hitler is not j^ ^ n ly one to entertalD such_notlons.. We have a few such people in America. If we win this war, and continue to hold that notion we shall lose the peace, and we must expect another war. We can only build upon the recognition of the worth of other peoples; there must be equalities of nations and races. No world is safe from war which keeps within itself the mad scrambles of com petition, racial and national barriers. With room for nat ional interests and development there must be a mutual respect and cooperation among all peoples if we ever at tain that warless world for which we pray.

Baby’s Diagnosis My little two and a half year old son, stung by a bee, explained between sobs; "A big bug stuck a splinter In my finger!” Double Deck Bank Clerk: ‘‘Have you any thing to Identify yourself by?” Fair One: ‘‘Er—yes, if you must know I have a mole on my left arm.” Reason Enough The summer boarder asked: Why Is it that old hog keeps trying to come Into my room? Do you think he has taken a fancy to me?” MORE ABOUT Meat, Fat Ration point Little Wlllle explained It. He der. whispered: “Why, that’s his room during the winter.” —16 points, which is the total of the 3, 5, 2 and 1 stamps printed in red and marked A. One may then buy meat or butter or cheese or any thing else on the list according to Its point value as he de sires. For Instance, vegetarians may spend all their points on butter and cheese while some people may buy practical ly nothing but meat. The system is virtually the same as the point values for canned goods. NORMAL TRIM The government ordered that all meats should be sold on a “nom al trim” basis. That meant that butchers are supposed to cut ofl a “normal’ ’amount ot bone and fat be fore weighing. However, consiuners will have to do their own policing of the order, and if dissatisfied can do nothing but arguftwith the butcher or take their trade elsewhere. A few standard types of meat failed to appear on the point chart, notably rolled rib beef roast. For any such cuts, the point value will have to be determined by weigh ing up the original cut after which the butcher can trim and roll or otherwise prepare the desired cut. Accordingly, butcher shops will not be able to have such things aS rolled rib roast on display and will have to make them up on or- Time Out ‘‘What’s the time?” "Dunno.” "Isn’t your watch running?” "Yeah, but it’s an hour slow,” Too Sudden Ernest; ‘‘Would you accept a pet monkey?” Ruth: ‘‘Oh, I’ll have to ask father, this Is so sudden.” It Happens He (at the phone); "I want to Insert a notice of the birth of my twins.” Girl (at newspaper office): "Will you repeat that, sir?” He: “Not If I can help it.” for Heavy Investment ‘‘So you met Alice today?” "Yes, I hadn’t seen her ten years.” "Has she kept her girlish figure?” "Kept it. She’s doubled it.” WUe Owl Wife: “Did you notice the wonderful coat the woman had on who was sitting in front of us In church this morning?” Husband: "No; I’m afraid I was dozing.” Wife: "It does a lot of good to take you to church, doesn’t it?" Politeness "You must find debt collecting a thankless Job. Nobody wants to see you, do they?” ‘On the contrary, they all ask me to call again.” True or False "I don’t suppose you don’t know of nobody who don't want to hire nobody to do nothing, don’t you?” "Yes, I don’t.” Revenge Note from teacher on Betty’s report card—"Oood worker, but talks too much.” Note from Father over signa ture on back of card—"Come up sometime and meet her mother.” Could Be The newly rich oil farmer, unable to write, deposited his flrst royalty check In the bank and arranged that his signature should be two crosses. Soon a check showed up signed with three crosses and the banker summoned the farmer for an ex planation. "Wei my wife is gettin’ Into society,” he explained, "and she thinks I should have a middle name,” AUSTRIAN PEAS A crop of Australn winter peas planted in September by J. C. Holland of Duplin county, has made two and a half times as much growth as another crop planted in late October in the same field, All point values in this program are on a "per pound” basis, even with regard to canned meats or fish, and frac tional weights will be figured to the nearest full coupon point—except that at least one point must be charged for even the smallest purchase. Thus a steak which costs 8 points per pound may be bought In a half pound portion at 4 points, or in a pound and three ounce size at 10 points. In this figuring, a fraction amounting to less than 1-2 point Is disregarded, while a fraction of 1-2 or more costs a whole point. Thus 7 ounces of pork sausage (7 points per pound will cost 3 points, while 8 ounces will cost 8 points. Because of the dlillculty In cutting meat to exact weights, and thus to exact coupon totals, opA authorized butchers to give “coupon change,” using 1-polnt coupons for this purpose. For Instance, if a person bought 6 points worth of meat and had only an 8 point coupon to pay for it, the butcher can give him back two 1-polnt stamps. This Is a departure from the point system on canned goods, where no change is permitted. TUNISIA BATTLE UNDER WAY The Allied offensive In Tunisia has begun. Général Montgomery’s Brlltsh eighth army has slugged its way through the first objectives In the Mareth line on a slx-mlle ' front. General Patton’s American armored forces have captured 1,400 Axi^ prisoners as they swept across south- central Tunisia toward the Gulf of Gabes. The attack is accompanied by Allied shuttle-bombing on a huge scale. Churchill announced Wednesday that the Germans had succeeded In regaining their lost positions In fierce coimter attack. ' LONG WAR MAY BE AHEAD In a radio address last Sunday Prime Minister Church- 111 warned the British people that It may take two years to beat Hitler. Then Japan would be conquered, he said. The British premier suggested a European council to re store permanent peace after the war and outlined a “four year plan” for improved social conditions In England. Churchill said the post-war organization for peace must Include the British commonwealth of nations, America and Russia and regional federations of smaller nations. HITLER MAKES SPEECH After 133 days of silence, Hitler made a speech last Sunday which was one of the shortest and most subdued of his career. Hitler said the crisis on the Russian front had been surmounted, that Germany had lost only 542,000 . since the w u began and admitted that many parts of Qer- ' many may become “war zones” because of Allied bom bl^. Observers say Hitler’s talk of only 542,000 German dead is far, far below the facts.

The new order does not apply to other areas. A-books will still be good for three gallons In the 17 eastern states but they must last for foiw months. Shortage of gas and oil supplies, and greatly in-1 creased demands for fuel for farm machinery, caused the OPA order, which became effective March 22.

Wen, two words that pack a good deal of meaning about our supply ot food are: produce and conserve. The food that a family grow» In one garden may not look lm> preaalve. But add up food on 6, 000,000 farms, and 12 million to IS million Victory Gardens ta backyards and vacant lots. Do that, and you have a grand total of food for war needs and for home needs. As for conserving, every home maker can help make the food supply go farther and put the food shie haa to good use. A homemaker la conaerving when she plans a balanced meal. She is conserving, when she shop* with her eyes open and buys foods that give good value ia nutrition. And, she Is conaervlnc when she sees that nothing goes to waste. She In conaerving when she cooks meals well, so the family gete all the good from food. And she la conserving, of course, when she preserves food for the future. ^ W e iIStfrmriONED^ _____ AMU l*'N1Nt liur BMf wen IT.* W. S. C. s.

PACIFIC QUIET MAY PRESAGE STORM TO COME, WARNS SECRETARY KNOX Secretary Knox said the Pa cific is very quiet at the mo ment, but “this may be the calm before the storm.” “The war Is still on out there— very much,” the secretary told a press conference. The subject of the Paclflc came up when Knox was asked about the fact that a navy cas ualty list Issued last night con tained only nine names, indi cating a minimum of action in all the vast battle area. The secretary’s only direct comment on the list was, "don’t make any deductions from that; the total of casualties changes constantly, as you know.” Of other matters, Knox com mented: Martinique—Things are get ting " a little tight” at the French Caribbean Island because supplies from the United States are cut off; “There is local re sentment over the situation— resentment against Admiral (George) Robert for being so stubborn,” Knox said. North Africa—The secretary, deliberately adopting a phrase of Prime Minister Churchill’s said that by judging by what Churchill had reported he would say that “we are now on the move” In Tunisia. Atlantic—There’s “still a war on,” Knox said, but he had no current report about its prog ress in the Atlantic. Asked spe- ? F. R. McMahan, above, prominent Davie citizen, who died on March 11. clflcally whether the navy was able to confirm German claims of the development of a super- submarine operated by a dlesel- oxygen engine rather than by a standard diesel electric combi nation, Knox said, “I think that is an exploded idea.” He did not amplify this com ment.

The flrst and second orders are effective at midnight on March 31, and the third order became effective March 5, he said . “The county war board will be responsible for issuing per mits under the flrst and second orders,” the chairman said. “Farmers who slaughter for sale, local slaughterers and butchers will obtain their permits from the war boards, as will livestock dealers who buy and sell ani mals for slaughter purposes.”^ He emphasized that farmers who slaughter for home use are not required to obtain permits, neither are they required to ob tain permits to sell live animals.

IcwiMilul, fbmfit riti •Mhii hm* wmI). •» Jiult Wilkins Drug C o . • • • H ello, Bill Brady, ’way out there. .. I guess the mailman must be mad at us because he hasn’t brought a letter since the day you went away. And if he doesn’t ring the doorbell soon, I think my heart will break. There isn’t much to tell, tonight, except—since all my letters seem to go astray, I’ve found another way to say‘I love you.’ Last night I joined the Red Cross. I'm not anybody there. Just one more woman — cutting dressings, rolling bandages, packing Red Cross kits—hoping the men we love will never need them, but hoping more that they aren’t past the need. I’ll be a Staff Assistant before long, Bill. In a very military uniform. I can hearyou chuckle, my darling. I don’t rhind the extra hours. To rne, time isn’t measured by the ticking of a clock—it lags or races with the beating of my heart. So time at work is short, because I know that you would have me very busy. I can hear you say “Chin up, and get on with the job.” Good night, Bill Brady. Out there . . . somewhere.
