Bossie Goes Off HerRampage on Takinga Ration of Sweets

One of Eugene A. Livingston'shigh producing cows went on arampage on his Elkland Townshipfarm recently and it was only aftershe had been issued several rationsof sweets did she subside and re-turn to her normal self. For afew days, it looked as though theowner might have to apply for asugar" ration card for Bossie, forMrs. Livingston's sugar supplywas reduced down to a half poundbefore a substitute sweet was dis-covered. This proved to be molas-ses, Mr. Livingston having pur-chased a five-barrel supply of thissirup to use for mixing with grassfor silage. A pint of molasses aday for Bossie, like an apple aday for man, has kept the doctoraway.

The four-year-old bovine sudden-ly became unmanagable and ap-parently went temporarily insaneuntil the sugar and later the molas-ses ration was administered on theadvice of a veterinary surgeon.The first dose was five pounds ofsugar, two pounds the next day,and one and one-half pounds thethird day, and then when the fam-ily larder could not furnish moresugar, it was decided to commencethe molasses diet.

The malady which affects only aIiigh producing cow depletes hersugar supply. In the temporarystage of insanity, the cow affectedwill chew her manger and attemptother unusual and unnatural feats.A diet which includes sweets re-stores the animal to -a normal stateof health.

Federal PriceControl in Effectin Ten Days

Most Revolutionary Step

Ever to Be Tiaken inOur National Economy.

Michigan Press AssociationNews Letter.

Michigan retailers are tighteningtheir belts this week.

Federal price control, probablythe most revolutionary step evertaken in our national economy, willgo into effect in just ten days.

It's the NRA all over again, ex-cept Uncle Sam is wielding the bigstick. The Blue Eagle is back.Like it or not, price control is onthe way. And with it are due oth-er economic restrictions, staggeringin their aggregate significance.Most economists agree that youcan't freeze prices without the ac-companying power of rationingcommodities of which sugar is onlythe .first. The grade will be steep.

What is it all about, anyway?Let's take a look at it from the

i retailer's point of view.

Salvage for VictoryCampaign Here

A Salvage for Victory campaign,sponsored by E. Paul & Son andlocal community organizations, willbe conducted in the Cass City com-munity, from May 18 to 23 in-clusive.

In the canvass of minute men inTuscola County the first of theweek, the returns thus far receivedby Clarence BougHer, county chair-man, indicate that from 98 to 99

ay 17, 1942.)

I am an American.I do not care for war. But I

care less for abject slavery.I do not like to fight. But I

would sooner fight than be ruledby a tyrant whose goal is thesubjugation of all mankind.

/ do not like to kill. But Iwill not rest until the crazed am-bitions of madmen are foreverdead.

I do not want to die. But 1prefer death to the loss of ourheritage of freedom.

I am an American.

Ex-Auto .Workers GivenSpecial Courses forArmament Program.

DETROIT.—This is the story ofan important battle that America iswinning.

It is the battle to train a millionworkers to make armaments thatour armies will fight with.

The biggest piece of the arma-ment program falls to the automo-bile industry, which recently stoppedmaking cars and is in the processof conversion to war work.

When it is going full blast again—it is hoped within the "ten silvermonths" remaining this year—it willnear around a million workers,twice as many as there ever werebefore.

VirtuaUy all of these will have tohave had some special training.There is hardly an operation inarmament manufacture that will bejust the same as one in automobilemanufacture, which was so special-ized that you had one machine tobore one-eighth inch holes, anotherto bore one-sixteenth holes; one ma-chine to bore two holes at once, an-other to bore four holes at once. Ittakes four times as many operationsto make an airplane engine connect-ing rod as it does to make an auto-mobile connecting rod.

Training a Million.The scope of training a million

people may be compared with theproblem that confronted the armyat the time of the first draft ayear ago.

How are you going to do it?The problem not only has been

solved, but the training is underway, turning out workers as fast—except in the highly specialized tool-and-die bottleneck field—as ma-chines can be installed for them tooperate.

The General Motors institute atFlint turned out 16,000 last year.Henry Ford has started an airplaneengineering school in connectionwith his Pratt and Whitney enginemanufacturing that is training sev-eral thousand men and is establish-ing a school for 8,000 at his RisingWillow Run bomber plant.

But all these projects make onlya small dent in that envisioned1,000,000. The bulk of them will betraining products of the very fac-tories where they will work.

The auto companies got going onthis program over a year ago, whendefense orders first started comingthrough.

In preparation for General Motors'aluminum fabrication plant, a smallgroup of supervisors was sent tostudy operations of the AluminumCompany of America plant in Cleve-land.

Start Spreading Out.Another group went to the Pratt

and Whitney airplane plant in Hart-ford, Conn. A hundred men froma Fisher Body plant went to theNorth American Aviation factory inInglewood, Calif.

When these groups got back theystarted spreading out what they hadlearned.

The last level of training, the big-gest job since it involves the biggestnumber of workers, is accomplishedby two principal methods: The "su-perviser" system, where a trainedman keeps an eye on several nov-ices each at his own machine; andthe "trainee" method, where a nov-ice is assigned to an experiencedworkman at a machine to learn fromhim.

Here the industry follows its basicmass production principle of break-ing a big job down into easily man-ageable parts, and tackling theparts one by one.

A .30-caliber machine-gun has 265parts, with an average of 30 manu-facturing operations for each part.For speed the work is laid outamong as many operators as pos-sible. If one man is performingthree operations they see if theycan't divide it among three men do-ing one operation each.

This reduces to a minimum theamount that an operator has to betaught. Teaching him is "similarlyspeeded by breaking down his op-eration into its essential parts.

Mosquito ShunsTreated Water

Gardeners and fishermen alikewill rejoice later on this year ifthoughtful persons take time outnow to treat water surfaces withsome anti-mosquito precautions.

The job is so simple it wouldappear to be good business forresort owners and home folks toreduce the buzzing, biting popula-tions of summer pests, 'suggestsProf. E. I. McDaniel of the Michi-gan State College entomology de-partment.

For large water surfaces, suchas ponds or large puddles, a dustingof Paris green will do the trick.The quantity should be small toavoid injury to plants or other in-sects. A half pound of the powderprovides enough dust to cover ahalf acre water surface. The pow-der is applied by scattering witha duster.

The treatment kills mosquitolarvae and discourages adult mos-quitoes from laying eggs on thetreated water area. Puddles infields or ruts in roadways shouldalso be treated to complete thecontrol.

Householders with garden poolscan do the job with goldfish insteadof the poison. One sugestion fromProfessor McDaniel is that the fishshould not be too well fed. If thegoldfish are kept hungry they'lllive longer and mop up the mos-quito larvae with greater efficiency.

Prevalence of mosquitoes de-pends on rainfall in spring andsummer months. The story aboutthe pests hatching in hollow treesis correct, says the college authori-ty, but in such cases the hollowtrees hold sufficient pools of waterto hatch the larvae and feed themuntil they fly.

Treatment of cisterns is- simple.A cupful of fine oil keeps the mos-quitoes out, yet does not preventuse of the cistern water for cookingor other purposes.

Freshen Crumpled FlowersTo freshen crumpled artificial

flowers, hold them over the steamfrom a tea kettle for a few minutes;then pull them out into shape andshake them until they are quite dry.This treatment works wonders, es-pecially with velvet flowers.

Blow Soap BubblesNext time the children have a

party let them blow soap bubbles,with a little glycerine added to thesoapy water. The glycerine willmake the bubbles look much pret-tier—all rainbow colors and irides-cent—and they'll last longer, too.

Unless our poles and lines run within 250feet of your building, we are unable to extend theselines without approval of the War Production Boardat Washington, D.C. Where buildings are nearlycompleted, and an extension of our lines is necessaryto serve them, we will assist in preparing the formsrequired for special approval, and forward yourapplication to the proper authorities in Washington.

War and Women AreBest Word Coiners

Cause of Many AdditionsTo Dictionary.

NEW YORK.—Priority, which hastaken from Mr. Ordinary Americanmost of his luxuries and a lot ofwhat he thought were his necessi-ties, has given him one thing—a newword.

Priority will be in the new edi-tions of the dictionaries, Dr. CharlesE. Funk, lexicographer who hasbeen passing judgment on words for40 years, said as he thumbed overthe last proofs of spring editions.

"War and women are our bestword makers," Dr. Funk said.

Bottleneck, Dr. Funk said, is aperfect example of a war-born wor^.

"It sounds like a word we havebeen using for years," he explained,"but as a matter of fact it will getin the dictionaries for the first timein 1942.

"I believe women coin morewords than wars. No matter whatthe situation, they find an expres-sion for it.

"We have them to thank for hair-do and beautician. Housewives havealso coined ^vacuuming, but it hasnot yet been put in the dictionary."

Jeep and peep, describing warvehicles, make their bow in the com-ing editions.

Blitz is an example of words thatcome into the language through theback door—brought in from a for-eign language.

War words which already havefound their way into the dictionariesinclude blackout, blind flying, fifthcolumn and dive bomber.

Quisling—meaning you know what—already has been included in oneor two of the six standard diction-aries, Dr. Funk said.

Maine Now Looms asNew Source for Minerals

PORTLAND, MAINE.—Deposits ofinexhaustible mineral wealth soonmay be tapped throughout this stateto supply war industries with essen-tial alloy products.

According to geologists, some ofthe world's richest deposits of beryland molybdenite, important sourcesof alloys for airplane construction,are to be found in Maine quarries.Previously undeveloped because ofthe high cost, old and new quarriesmay be opened to supplement thepresent national mineral supply.

So valuable is one deposit ofmolybdenite in the Atlantic coastaltown of Cherryfield that the Germangovernment tried to buy the town'sCatherine Hill at the beginning ofthe last war.

West of Augusta in Albany is theBumpus quarry, where the world'slargest beryl crystals were found afew years ago. Adjoining it arenumerous other undeveloped beryldeposits.

Swiss Censors AfraidOf 'America, I Love You*BERN, SWITZERLAND. — The

song, "America, I Love You," hascaused considerable consternation inthis neutral capital. Censors, assert-ing that the words are "too pro-American" and not in line withSwitzerland's neutral policy, havecut out parts of the American film,"Tin Pan AUley,'* in which it ap-pears.

In so doing, the censors broughton a storm of protests from movie-goers, who said the deletions spoiledthe plot.

A night club featured the song sungby an American Negro. Three nightslater the Negro said he had beenasked not to sing the words, al-though the orchestra was allowedto play the melody.

The censors did not chop up an-other American picture, in whichGary Grant, playing the part of «newspaper city editor, directs oneof his assistants to "stick Hitler onthe funny page."

, 'How'sFight Going?'

WASHINGTON.—Soon after thebattle of Pearl Harbor, the navy, inannouncing the death of Capt. Mer-vyn S. Bennion, pointed out that theofficer had declined to leave thebridge of his ship even after hisstomach had been laid open by thesplinter of a bomb.

In a memorandum issued to thepress, it made public an anonymouseyewitness account of Captain Ben-nion's death.

It read as follows:"I came out of the conning tower

just after the captain had been hitby a splinter of a bomb intended foranother ship. He was lying severe-ly wounded and still conscious onthe signal bridge, with the top ofhis stomach laid open.

Anxious About Battle."At that time I was the only of-

ficer with him and he was verydesirous to know how the battle wasproceeding and what action our ownship had taken. I kept him informedas much as possible and then, in theabsence of morphine, attempted togive him ether.

"I remained with him for abouta half hour as he lay there, andlater moved him into a shelter undera splinter shield, but he refused tobe moved either from the bridge orinto the conning tower for protec-tion.

"Later a senior officer arrivedand attempted to direct his removalfrom the bridge, but the captainagain refused and remained on thebridge. A pharmacist's mate ar-rived to administer as much first aidas possible. When all the officersand men on the bridge had been cutoff from below by fire, it was againsuggested to the captain that he bemoved from the ship, but he refused,and it was necessary, because ofthe flames, for the officers to takehim up to the navigation bridge, justabove the flag bridge, where he re-mained until his body was removedlater.

First Thought of Men,"What he wanted to know most

was how the battle was proceeding.He asked two or three times, 'How'sthe fight going?' His next concernwas to get all wounded men offthe ship and to have all availablemen in condition to get on otherships to fight. His first thought wasof his men. He was exceedingly.pleased to hear what guns wereable to fire. He was removed thatafternoon.

"He made all of his men go totheir stations. A marine (who wasmanning his station on the foretopof a ship alongside) saw the cap-tain try several times to get up.The captain, because of his wound,had lost control of his legs and triedrepeatedly to get up but was unablesto do so.

"There is reason to believe thatCaptain Bennion died about 11^o'clock on the morning of Decem-ber 7. He was alone when he died,having resisted all efforts to takehim off the bridge and having or-dered all officers and men to theirstations.

"The pharmacist's mate was withCaptain Bennion for a short time,but was ordered away by the cap-tain to take care of others.

I "His concern was for the safetyof his own ship and particularly hismen."

Farmers to Sharein Price Control

Michigan's 186,000 farmers would"lose their • shirts" in any wide-spread inflation, therefore theystand to gain by the new federalcost of living control measureswhich are going into effect thisweek and next.

That is the opinion of R. V.Gunn, Michigan State College ag-ricultural economist, to preface aplan to acquaint all of the farmersin the state with the obligationsand the opportunities which areapparent in the federal regulations.Rural neighborhood groups will getdetails throughout the state.

President Roosevelt's seven-point economic outline serves asbackground for the control overcost of living. These seven pointsare: 1. Tax heavily and hold prof-its down. 2. Fix ceilings forwholesale, retail and manufactureprices. 3. Stabilize wages. 4.Stabilize prices received by farm-ers. 5. Encourage the purchaseof war bonds. 6. Ration essentialscarce commodities. 7. Discour-age credit and installment buyingand encourage the paying off ofdebts.

"This is the first time since 1910-14 that a farm parity seems to beat hand for many of farm productsin terms of prices received andprices paid," Professor Gunn ex-plains'.

"Estimates of 1941 national in-come set a record of 92 billion dol-lars. Eighteen billions probablywent into taxes and savings, leav-ing 74 billions for spending. In1942, the national income mayjump to 117 billions, but instead ofhaving 74 billions of goods for con-sumers to purchase, there likelywill be but about 65 billions ingoods. After applying 31 billionsto taxes' and savings, there stillwould be an estimated excess ofspending power of perhaps 17 bil-lions. Unless this is directed intowar bonds and paying of debts,plus the use of a program suchas this cost of living control, infla-tion cannot be avoided.

"Those with money would com-pete in the bidding for the smallerstocks of consumer goods. Thefarmer, as in other inflation peri-ods, likely would be left far be-hind."

COLORFUL EVENT

Concluded from page one.siding as toastmaster, welcomedthe guests of the Junior Class. Inintroducing the theme of the ban-quet, she explained two possibleinterpretations, and then madesome humorous remarks about thelack of scientific corroboration ofthe benefits of the wishing well.

Speaking as president of theJunior Class, James McCoy made awish that not only the three R'sand the vocational skills, but alsothe ideals which the school fosterswill be employed more effectivelyin the future.

Gerald Kercher, Senior president,felt that despite the theme of theevening, patriotism was of suchimportance today that its needmust be re-emphasized. H , ex-pressed the wish that it would notbe necessary to abandon plans fora banquet in 1943 because of thewar.

Stops Infection FollowingSurgical Operations.

BUENA VISTA, GA.—Dr. DerylHart, native of Buena Vista, and atpresent chief surgeon at Duke hos-pital, Durham, N. C., is receivingacclaim in the world of science be-cause of having perfected a beamof light which will, among otherthings, protect a person from catch-ing cold from another, and combatinfection following surgical opera-tions.

Dr. Hart's experiments began in1936 with ultra-violet rays, when itwas found that 206 out of 1,735 sur-gical patients-contracted unexplain-able wound infections, 19 of them"dying. After numerous experimentshe decided that infectious organismswere being carried into open woundsby ventilating air or by the breathof the surgeons themselves. A five-year study followed, during whichhe visited hospital operating roomsin nearly every state in the Union.His belief was confirmed by thou-sands of experiments.

With the aid of the Westinghouselaboratories he adapted a mercury-vapor ultra-violet light and rigged itup in his operating room. Imme-diately the percentage of infectedwounds fell from 11.9 to 0.24 percent, and not one patient among2,500 cases has died of this kind ofinfection since.

Several years ago his discoverywas adapted to throw a germ-proofscreen of light between bank tellersand the public.

In bakeries, too, where they areused, they keep the food sterile, andin manufacturing plants, dairies,etc., they effectively kill all germs.

Dr. Hart received his A. B. degreefrom Emory university, Atlanta, in1916, his master's in 1917. In 1919he was graduated in medicine fromJohns Hopkins university, where heremained as an instructor in sur-gery until 1929, when he went toDuke.

Dysentery Is CheckedBy New Sulfa Remedy

BALTIMORE.—A new sulfa drugthat very nearly sterilizes the in-testinal tract and gives startlingcures in dysentery—severe diseaseof soldiers and children alike—hasbeen reported. It not only reducesthe danger of infection and deathin certain kinds of surgery butgreatly relieves post-operative gaspains.

This powerful cousin in the famoussulfa family is succinyl sulfathia-zole, developed by Dr. Edgar J.Poth and his associates, Dr. F. LouisKnotts, Dr. James T. Lee and Dr.Frank Inui, of the department ofsurgery, Johns Hopkins medicalschool. It is reported in the Febru-ary issue of Archives of Surgery.

In hurnans the drug reduces thenumber of bacteria in the large in-testine to one-millionth of its normalpopulation, or even less. Relative-ly so few organisms remain that thedanger of peritonitis or deep ab-cesses after operations on the largeintestine is tremendously reduced.In 100 human cases there were "nodeep abcesses and no peritonitis fol-lowing operations due to failure ofthe drug to be effective," Dr. Pothsaid.

A Former Lobster Bait,Sea Perch Is in Demand

PORTLAND, MAINE.—Althoughstrikes, bad weather and war-banshave choked off the usual supply ofocean fish for New Englanders,thousands of pounds of pink seaperch daily are being shipped towestern and midwestern communi-ties.

Perhaps because it lacks a dis-tinctive taste, natives here rarelyeat perch, preferring halibut, had-dock and cod. But inlanders relishthe small fish and in 1941 alone onelarge company bought 10,000,000pounds from local fishermen.

Before 1938 and the erection ofa large fish processing plant in Port-land, the sea perch, also known asrose, brim or red fish, was almost anuisance to draggers. Then the fishwas sold generally for lobster bait.

WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS

Increasing U. S. Air and Naval PowerDemonstrated in Pacific Sea Battles;U. S. Wants Car Owners' 'Extra' Tires;OPA Decrees Gas Quota for East Coast

(EDITOR'S NO\TE—When opinions are expressed in these' columns, theyare those ef thft news analyst and not necessarily of this newspaper.)

'' (Released by Western Newspape'r

The strategic importance of - Madagascar to the two main supplyarteries of the United Nations armies in the east are indicated by theabove map. By captsiring the key naval base of Diego Suarez, BritishCommandos supported by marines, infantry, air forces and naval units*assured protection of these vital supply lines.

PACIFIC SEA BATTLES:U. S. Shows Power

A crucial test of the United Na-tions' increasing strength in the Aus-tralian sector was given as Japa-nese sea and air might massednortheast of the key continent in athrust, from New Britain, the Solo-mon Islands and the Loyuisade Ar-chipelago.

Within a five-day span Americanwarships and planes had taken atoll of 16 Japanese ships either sunkor badly damaged^ Engagementswere the heaviest since the battle ofthe Java sea.

Concentration of the Japanese na-val forces in the Australian areawas regarded as a threat to thesteadily expanding U. S. communi-cation lines in the South Pacific.Blocking of this threat meant thatnot only would Australia's positionbe more secure, but that the"springboard" for an ultimate Unit-ed Nations' offensive against theJaps to recapture the East Indiesand the Philippines would be fur-ther prepared.

Japan's strategic power in thisarea lay in its possession of the Solo-mon islands which form steppingstones along Australia's northeastflank starting from Rabaul on theisland of New Britain and extendingdown to New Caledonia.

MADAGASCAR:40-Hour Triumph

A 40-hour epic of British Comman-dos' gallantry came to a victoriousconclusion when the Diego Suareznaval base on the northern tip ofVichy-held Madagascar • surren-dered.

While French army outposts stillheld military control over the Mada-gascar hinterlands, the fall of thehuge naval base assured the UnitedNations possession of the vital gate-way to their eastern supply routes.Moreover, it was vindication of anew spirit of aggression which madethe Japs "miss the bus."

Military authorities in both Amer-ica and Britain pointed out that thesuccessful attack marked a refresh-ing contrast to the fiasco at the keyport of Dakar, Africa, a year ago.

It was revealed in London thatthe Commando attack on Madagas-car, supported by marines, RAFforces and naval contingents, hadbeen planned three months in ad-vance.

PRESIDENT OF PERU:Closer Latin Ties

Closer knitting of relations be-tween Latin America and the UnitedStates was seen in the visit of Presi-dent Manuel Prado of Peru to thiscountry.

When Senor Prado arrived by clip-per plane, it marked the first offi-cial visit in history, of a South"American president to the UnitedStates.

Significance of this precedent-breaking official mission to thefuture of Pan-American resist-ance to Nazism was seen in thefact that Peru was the firstSouth American country tobreak off relations with the Axisunder the accord reached lastJanuary at the Bio de Janeiro'conference. President Prado'sAnti-dictator policy before thewar was an important step in

i the virtual exclusion of Axispropaganda from Peru.

• Under a recent decree, Peruvianarmed forces now function underth» direction of U. S. army and navyofficers. I

RUBBER:(7. S. Wants Tires

Robert P. Patterson, undersecre-tary of war, intimated that countyfairs, football games and other pub-lic gatherings might have to be cur-tailed this year in the interest ofrubber conservation, when he an-nnnriQ^rl ths^ tlf10 e*OVSmrn.£«t

planned to purchase extra tires fromprivate car owners. By "extra"was meant more than five to a car,he said. Purchases will be on avoluntary basis.

At the same time the Office ofDefense Transportation dis-closed that it was drafting plansfor "rationing" civilian travelby train, bus or airplane. Offi-cials declared that "travel-as-usual" would be a thing of thepast by the end of 1942. Theyexpressed the belief that sharpcurtailments of non * essentialtrips would be necessary beforethe end of the summer.

That requisitioning of civilian tiresand cars would be undertaken ilnecessary was a view supported bya number of Washington officials.

In outlining his views on motor caruse curtailment, Mr. Patterson saidthe prospects are that there will besufficient rubber for the army, navy,war-workers and essential civiliansupplies. He pointed out that therewas a million tons of rubber "nowrolling on the highways" and that itmust be conserved.

Civilians who expect syntheticrubber plants to bring any relief thisyear are doomed to disappointment,it was declared. All such rubber isear-marked for the nation's armed•forces.

GAS RATIONING:East Coast First

Eventual gasoline rationing forthe entire United States loomed asa future possibility when the Officeof Price Administration limited thesale of motor fuel in the AtlanticSeaboard area to two to six gallonsweekly to "non-essential motorists."

The initial rationing applied to 10,-000,000 motorists in 17 eastern statesand the District of Columbia Offi-cials stressed the fact that sufficientgasoline would be provided for es-sential driving but not enough forextensive "pleasure" driving or oth-er non-essential purposes.

The OPA's order included threetypes of ration cards: "A" for non-essential motorists; "B" for essen-tial users such as defense workers,public service officials and others;and "X" providing for unlimited us-age. This latter category includeddoctors, nurses and kindred profes-sional people whose duties requirerapid and extensive travel.

In the scale of gasoline usage, the"A" range was based on an averagemileage estimated at 4.5 miles daily.The "B" range covered from 4.5 to13 miles daily and the "X" formileage far in excess of these av-erages.

LIVESTOCK SHOW:War Casualty

Indicative of necessary war-timerestrictions on the nation's trans-portation facilities, was the decisionby its directors to cancel the Inter-national Livestock Exposition heldannually in Chicago for the past 42years.

The anticipated lack of transpor-tation facilities to handle the live-stock formerly shipped here fromall sections of North America wascited as the principal reason for thecancellation.

Traditionally the mecca for ruralAmericans of all ages in the weekfollowing Thanksgiving, the exposi-tion recorded an all-time high at-tendance of 400,000 last year.

TRADE BARRIERS:Ban Local Restrictions

Suspension of trade barrier* be-tween states which are adverselyaffecting war production was pre-dicted following the close of a fed-eral-state conference on war restric-tions in Washington.

Particularly critical at presentare state and local laws governingman power, construction and hous-ing, the delegates were informed.Steps must be taken by state gov-ernments to relieve this situation,speakers declared.

Charged with the responsibilityof setting up machinery to placeceilings on rents affecting morethan 86,000,000 persons, Paul A-Orter, deputy administrator ofthe Office of Production Manage-ment, is directing the federal rentcontrol program under the super-vision of Price AdministratorLeon Henderson. Landlords in af-fected areas have until June 28 tostabilize rents in line with OPArecommendations.

'BACKDOOR THRUST':Japs Use Burma Road

Japan's "backdoor" invasion ofChina via the Burma road continuedinto Yunnan province despite U. S.army air attacks which knocked out74 enemy planes in a single week.

Seriousness of the newest threat toChina's resistance was seen in thedecision of Generalissimo ChiangKai-shek to take personal commandof his armies. That Chiang couldcount on stout co-operation from hisAmerican allies was shown by therepeated attacks by big Yankeebombers from India on the Jap'smain airdrome at Mingaladon northof Rangoon, Burma. This field wasthe main Nipponese base for theall-but-finished Burma campaignwhich had been extended to China.

The effectiveness of the Americanair offensive was illustrated by re-ports that each bomber was able todrop 250-pound explosives on thefield in spite of heavy anti-aircraftfire.

CHARGE ACCOUNTS:Time Buying Curbed

Every American who used acharge account or an installmentpurchasing plan to acquire the goodshe uses in everyday living was af-fected by the Federal Reserveboard's orders clamping the brakeson time-payment buying. The or-ders, tightening restrictions alreadyin effect, were the latest move inPresident Roosevelt's attack on spi-raling prices.

The Reserve board decreed:1—A limit of 12 months in the

period over which most consumer'sgoods could be purchased on install-ment plans.

2—Down payments of one-thirdcash on a majority of consumers'items. Exceptions were automobilespurchaseable over a 15-month pe-riod and furniture and pianos forwhich a down payment of only 20per cent is required for purchase ofover a 12-month period.

3—Payment of charge accounts infull by the 10th day of the calendarmonth after purchase. Failure toabide by this order would preventthe purchaser from buying on theaccount until he settled up.

4—The following additions to thelist of goods on which regulationsalready apply: automobile batteries,tires, tubes and accessories; bed-ding, draperies, household electricalappliances; used furniture; athleticgoods; household equipment; non-military clothing including shoes,hats and other haberdashery.

SPECIALISTS SOUGHT:Also Allied Nationals

Two moves to increase the flexi-bility of the army were made whenthe war department announced thecreation of the new army specialistcorps and the selective service head-quarters declared that nationals ofall Allied nations will be able to

those of their home nation.Men with certain specialized skills

will be recruited for the army spe-cialist corps. They will replace thosewho are capable of going into ac-tive military service. In general, nomen subject to the draft will beadmitted into the new corps, ac-cording to the announcement. Thoseaccepted may become officers rang-ing from lieutenants to "directorgenerals."

In the move to recruit nationals ofour allies, Gen. Lewis B. Hershey,selective service director, announcedthat reciprocal arrangements had al-ready been worked out under whichCanadians residing in this countrymight join either the Canadian orAmerican forces. This agreementwill be extended to other nation*.

By L. L. STEVENSONEvidence: A stubby, stolid-faced

Oriental sitting .alone in a downtown-bound Broadway street car, causedconsiderable speculation among oth-er passengers because of inabilityto determine whether he was a Chi-nese or a Jap. A little girl, whowith a man, evidently her father,sitting a little farther back, was. notat all interested in knowing whetherhe was friend or enemy since herattention was centered on a brightlycolored toy balloon which she al-lowed to fly here and there. Sev-eral times, her father," speaking ina low voice, warned her that shemight be annoying those about her,but the child continued her play,with a loud pop. The Oriental notonly all but jumped out of his seatbut glared at fellow passengers wholaughed. And so there was a gen-eral opinion that he wasn't Chinese.

Doing His Bit: Michael Calabreeseis a taxicab driver. His earningsaverage $25 a week with which hesupports not only himself and hiswife Tessie but also his two sons,Peter, nine years old, and Joseph,two. Six months ago, a passengergave him a $5 bill in mistake for aone. When Calabreese discoveredthe error, he couldn't find the pas-senger so he turned $4 over to thepolice. No claimants having ap-peared in the time set by law, hewent to headquarters and was- giventhe money. He didn't take it home,however. A young woman was col-lecting for the Red Cross.and with-out hesitation, Calabreese thrust the$4 into the box. He admitted topolice officers he could have usedthe money, but to give it to the RedCross seemed "the right thing todo."

* * *Repartee: Another Broadway trol-

ley incident concerns a very fussywoman in a hurry to get to her des-tination. The car, proceeding alongin the morning downtown rush,seemed to make just about, the aver-age speed which isn't fast or steady,but taking everything into consid-eration, is about the best that canbe accomplished. The woman, in-stead of sitting quietly, kept7 pick-ing at the motorman and finally,just before getting off at Fifty-ninthstreet to take a crosstown car, ac-cused him of deliberately makingher late to work.

"I'm sorry, madam," returned theman at the control, "I can't do any-thing about it today, but if you comeback tomorrow morning, I'll putwings on the car."

Different: New York's first "black-out marriage" took place in theVenetian lounge of the Hotel For-rest. Blackout curtains were in-stalled and all lights were dimmedwhile air raid sirens were simu-lated by'turning the radio on fullblast. It seems that the novel cere-mony was merely a whim of thebride, and the Hotel Forrest hadbeen selected because she lives inForest Hills. But there were no fur-ther revelations to identity of bride,bridegroom and wedding guests sopossibly it wasn't merely a publicitystunt.

* * *

Faith Kestored: Lotte Lehmann,soprano, was selling defense stampsin one of New York's large depart-ment stores recently and in thecrowd was a small, meek-lookingwoman who waited her turn to makea purchase very impatiently. Whenshe reached the table, her faceflushed with ~ excitement and sheburst out, "Oh, Madame Lehmann,I'm so glad I heard your last con-cert—it was such a worth-while ex-perience." She paused a moment,then went on, "You know, I wasbeginning to get worried about you.Your concerts before were such dis-appointments—but your last one re-stored my faith in you." And thatis Madame Lehmann's currentfavorite story about herself.

Not All SweetsNeed to Be Sugar

Sugar continues to make newsand history but it isn't necessaryto dip into tlie sugar supply tosweeten many of the normal Michi-gan meals.

Suggestions from the nome eco-nomics extension service at Michi-gan State College indicate theseveral ways a cook can turn tosave sugar.

One cup of refined white sugarcan be replaced > by one cup ofmaple sugar, maple syrup or honeyor by 1% cups of sorghum syrupor cane syrup or by two cups ofcorn syrup.

In the lemonade season a handyrecipe can be used without dis-turbing the sugar. A tasty hotweather drink includes ZVz cups ofcorn syrup, one quart ice water orcarbonated, water, a half cup ofstrained lemon juice and an eighthteaspoon of salt. Mix the cornsyrup and ice water, add the lemonjuice and salt and serve withcracked" ice.

In changing from sugar to syrupfor sweetening, some modificationis macf£ in most recipes in theliquid. .

Michigan State. College authori-ties recommend:

For cakes and cookies, use honeyto replace sugar, cup for cup, butuse only haff the quantity of otherliquid usually recommended. If theoriginal recipe suggests a cup ofsugar and cup of milk, then thecook can use a cup of honey and ahalf cup of milk.

When corn, cane or maple syrupsreplace sugar, reduce the liquid inthe recipe by one-third.' Those who turn to sorghumsyrup can follow the same rule aswith other syrups, but the bakingpowder should be reduced. A halfteaspoon of soda should be addedfor each cup of sorghum and thishas the leavening power of twoteaspoons of baking powder.

FEDERAL PRICECONTROL IN EFFECTIN TEN DAYS

Concluded from page one.are books, magazines, periodicals,newspapers, precious stones, etch-ings, sculptures, used automobilesand many others.

* * *No ceilings exist on food or bev-

rages sold for consumption on thepremises by restaurants and hotelsbecause of difficulty of enforcementdue to possible adjustment inquantity and quality of servings.

Farmers may sell commoditiesgrown and processed on his farmbo a total of not more than $75 inany one month without price re-striction.

Of course, used household mer-handise is excluded. And so are

professional or skilled services.

How will this affect the retailer?According to Otis Cook, manager

of the Michigan Retail Institute,the general effect will be unfavor-able on small units of business un-ess the Office of Price Administra-ion grants equitable relief from;he arbitrary freezing of both re-;ail and wholesale prices to March,1942.

More important than price freez-.ng, in Cook's judgment, is theprospect of a growing scarcity ofmerchandise due to war prioritiesand a resultant shrinkage of salesand profit. Rationing of importantcommodities is regarded by Cook;o be inevitable.

One favorable factor may be a;endency for the price ceiling tojecome the prevalent selling level.As sales drop off, selling priceswill rise toward the ceiling.

* . * *

Lag of price movements is theoasis of complaints by retailers.

For example, a store may havesold in March a product for $1.00which it purchased six months be-fore for 60 cents, thus allowing 40ents for operating costs and profit.At the same time this store, if it

nought the same merchandise inMarch, might have had to pay 70ents. Hence the selling price

would have become $1.10.When the government froze the

price at $1.00, it automatically cut;he retailer's margin from 40 to 30ents, a 25 per cent difference. The

OPA insists that any "roll back"must be at the expense of manu-ufacturing and wholesale prices;that the $1.00 ceiling must prevail,come what may. But will this bedone?

* * *One general effect is a drastic

readjustment in which efficienttores may make the grade but in-

efficient units may not.Services, instead of merchandise-,

may become substitute sources ofretailing revenue.

One compensating factor for thesmall retailing unit which may help,o offset the disadvantage of pricecontrol and rationing is today's;ransp>rtation situation due to thescarcity of rubber tires. People

will tend to shop at the nearbyocal stores whether they are inities or small towns. This offers

an opportunity, almost unparal-eled, to merchants of rural tradingcenters whose chief competitors in,he past have been Chicago mailorder houses and the large citystores.

Advertising, if used intelligently

becomes a powerful and profitableselling weapon.

* * *Rationing of gasoline, which is

now being introduced in Atlanticcoast states, may be extended na-tionally by July 1, 1942.

The big "if" in the picture, asit is reported reliably to us, iswhether volunteer rationing ofautomobile transportation can beeffected in Michigan through publicacceptance of the "Pontiac Plan."

If citizens are willing to makesacrifices by voluntary action, thengasoline rationing may be put off.

The same conclusion may bedrawn with regard to purchase ofwar bonds and stamps. If citizensagree to voluntary payroll deduc-tions, then enforced methods maybe avoided.

If youVe ever experienced tiiegrief and loss of money resultingfrom an unsatisfactory paint job,you will appreciate the age oieiadage which says: "Only whenquality is maintained, can lowprice be considered a bargain."

You may feel assured thatneither Bradley-Vrooman Com-pany, who make the paint wesell, nor we, who offer it to you,would sanction the sale of aninferior product.

Nevertheless, we believe astartling bargain will inducepeople to paint their propertyright now—so we've set aside aquantity of BEST QUALITYHouse Paint, which we will sellat a sharply reduced price.

The necessity of acting prompt-ly is self-evident—better arrangeto have us set aside some of thispaint for you while it's on sale.

Schee-lite is a source of tungsten, so im-portant a metal in defense that ithas been placed under full prioritycontrol by the Office of Produc-tion Management. Tunsten-contentsteel is used almost exclusively inconstruction of machine tools be-cause it retains its cutting qualitiesunder extreme temperatures.

Baked Potatoes Do Eight by Supper(See Kecipes Below)

The simple suppers at which acrowd gathers are pleasant for theirwarm friendli-ness, for the cozytalk which theyinspire. They areespecially easy togive if you planto have each ofyour friends bringa dish for thesupper — a potluck, as it were. This will saveeach woman the time and effort ofmaking a whole meal, and then youwill aH be together for knitting, sew-ing or defense work on the calendarfor the evening.

An assortment of attractive maindishes are usually received with en-thusiasm. Try these for enchantingappetites:

Mash thoroughly, or putthrough a potato ricer. Add butter,salt, pepper, milk and cooked onion.Beat well. Pile mixture lightly intoshells, top with two small porksausages that have been partiallycooked (boiled in a small amount ofwater).

Lynn Says:

Laundering Tips: With soapone of our prime, do not wasteitems, you will want to make themost of every scrap of soap youhave. Save the small soap scrapsfrom the bathrooms and kitchen,put them in a soap shaker soyou will make use of them inwashing dishes.

To have clean clothes even inspite of economical soap usageuse your washing machine wise-ly. Use only just so much waterin your machine as the waterline indicates and do not over-load your machine. Six to eightpounds of dry clothes are aboutright for the average washingmachine.

Mix the soap thoroughly withthe water before putting in theclothes. About two inches of soapsuds are necessary to do the jobup right.

Water temperatures play animportant part in laundering. Donot use very hot water for whiteclothes. For colored clothes, wa-ter comfortable to your hand isbest. For synthetic silks, wool-ens, rayons, water should belukewarm.

eggs, add scalded milk. Add tosalmon mixture. Make one or twosalmon loaves. Bake in a greasedpan placed in hot water at 325 de-grees until loaves are firm. Make agreen pea sauce by cooking frostedpeas for 5 to 8 minutes in boilingsalted water. Combine with whitesauce. Pour over loaf when serv-ing and slice the loaf.

Whisk any of these baked beancombinations into the oven and youhave a quickie dinner dish if youhave just hurried home from yourdefense training courses:

Fork Chops and Baked Beans.Casserole. (Serves 6)

6 pork chops1 large can baked beans1 teaspoon sugar% cup tomato catsup

Fry pork chops until nicelybrowned on both sides. Pour bakedbeans over chops, add sugar andcatsup. Bake in a moderate oven(350 degrees) for 20 minutes.

Nothing equals the charm ofhome-baked, freshly baked breedthat fills the -surroundings with a de-licious fragrance. That's why I giveyou this recipe for old-fashioned:

*Raisin Bread.(Makes 2 loaves)

1 package fresh granular yeast1 cup lukewarm water% teaspoon sugar1 cup scalded milk2 teaspoons salt% cup brown sugar (solidly packed)% cup corn syrup5% to 6 cups (or more) flour6 tablespoons melted shortening1% cups seedless raisins

Pour the granular yeast into thecup -of lukewarm water, add thehalf teaspoon sugar, stir and letstand about 5 minutes. Put thescalded milk, salt, sugar and cornsyrup into mixing bowl. Let cool.When milk is lukewarm, add thesoftened yeast and 3 cups of flour.Mix well, then beat until smooth.Next add the melted (not hot) short-ening and enoughflour to have thedough cling to-gether in a ball.Add the raisinswhich have beencovered for a fewminutes with veryhot water, thendried in a cloth, and dusted withflour. Knead the dough thoroughly,adding only enough flour to avoidstickiness. Let dough rise in a cov-ered, greased bowl in a moderatelywarm place (82 to 84 degrees) un-til doubled. Fold the dough downand let rise about % hour, then di-vide and shape into two loaves.Place in greased bread pans andbrush tops with melted shortening.Let rise until doubled. Bake about50 minutes in a moderately hot oven(375 to 380 degrees). If desired,brush tops with honey just befdretaking from the oven.

For an in-the-season, centerpiecenote, besides its economical aspects,try this: A long, low, shallow bowlin pottery or glass such as you mayhave used for relishes, if largeenough, use a snow-white cauliflow-er banked with parsley, eggplant,radishes or tomatoes.

If you like candles for the table,place these in little baking cuts orramekins, at either side of the vege-table bowl.

A simple setting like this calls fovgay, unadorned china and soft orbright plaids in tablecloth and nap-kins.

Concluded from page one.words. We believe in: 1—The dig-nity of the individual and his inher-ent right to live as an individual,not as an automaton of the state.2—Respect for the truth. Withoutsuch a fundamental respect decenthuman relationships become im-possible. 3—In government of law.Government by and at the whim ofa dictator's decree is intolerable,4—In a good God. Wtihout sucha belief there is little incentive forthe perpetuation of human rela-tionships on a basis that has madeour civilization possible.

"These four simple precepts arenot shared by Adolf Hitler and hisstooges," Mr. Hannah remarked."To us they are what makes lifeworth living, and their perpetuationis woiVii any aiiiouni/ OJL 1/na.i ano.sacrifice.

CHRISTMAS SEAL SALEHERE EXCEEDED THATOF PREVIOUS YEAR

Concluded from page one.in Michigan where the superintend-ent, or some teacher selected by thesuperintendent, served as commu-nity manager to direct the Christ-mas seal sale.

Mr. Niergarth has managed theChristmas seal sale in Cass Citysince 1935.

PROPER OF CREAM ADDS TO FARM

Heat causes cream tospoil quickly.

Freezing causes "offflavor, mealy butter."

Immediately after separa-tion place cream in cooler.

As in everything else, there is aright and wrong way to do everyfarm chore. The above chart showsright and wrong ways of carryingthrough certain farm practices con-nected with the handling of cream,as determined over many years ofexperience. No butter can be betterthan the quality of the cream fromwhich it is manufactured. The mainresponsibility for the quality of but-ter consumed by the American peo-ple must ultimately rest on thecream-producing farmer.

After all is said, the big job inproducing quality cream on thefarm lies in keeping outside bac-teria from contaminating the creamwhile fighting strenuously to keepthe bacteria normally in milk at aminimum. Principally it is a taskin sanitation: Clean barn, clean ud-ders, clean hands, clean utensils,cooling of the cream immediatelyafter separation, and frequent mar-ketings. It is as simple as that.

_j=j$ Do not add warm creamgTIcpr to cream already cooled.

To prevent foreign matter such asparticles /of dust or dirt, hair andsimilar bacteria-bearing substancesfrom contaminating milk and cream,the person doing the milking shouldwipe the udder with a damp cloth,wash and dry his hands, and do hismilking into a clean, well-tinnedmilking pail. The milk should bestrained through a cotton - discstrainer and separated immediate-ly. The fresh cream should be putinto a separate can immediately andcooled to below 60 degrees. Thisrapid cooling will retard bacterialdevelopment which causes cream tospoil. Water cools cream a greatdeal faster than the coldest air.Plans for the construction of an ef-ficient cream-cooling tank for theaverage farm, like the one shownin the illustration, together with in-structions for its operation, may behad without cost from the state agri-cultural college or through the localcreamery or cream buyer.

"Every lecture to recruits ontheir first day on schedule here onthe range, I always stress the pointwhere the Marine Corps is proudof its traditions, especially thetradition of a unit composed al-most entirely of good marksmen,and that one absolutely essentialrequirement of becoming a Marineis to qualify with the rifle. Myconcluding sentence usually, is this:'And I don't care if you stay inMarines for 20 years if you can'tqualify with your rifle, you areabsolutely not a Marine, even ifyou do call yourself one.'

"Keep in mind that most boyswho dont qualify are still goodshots in comparison with otherbranches of the service. Thestandards are much higher here inthe Marines."
