Conquered Assist
Wherever possible. so vast was
their task. the Germans filled all
but key administrative posts with
persons recruited from the con-
quered populace. Thus local police
with the German gestapo always
in the background-still hold their
jobs and direct traffic in most of
the invaded areas. Local postmen
deliver mail Local authorities still
send out income tax forms.

In Norway the Germans set up
a new cabinet and established

Responsible to Hitler
In the Netherlands German
commissioner. responsible directly
to Hitler, was made governor Of
occupied areas. A German trade
expert was appointed to direct
economic recovery. A German
general, with supreme military
power, was made responsible for
maintaining order. The Dutch,
however, were left In charge of
local governmental services.
Belgium. where no civil govern
ment was established. remains I'M
der direct German military rule.
Occupied France was divided
into military districts under Ger
man commanders. In some places
for example, Paris-local police
and other officials exercise re-
stricted authority. But the coun-
try at large is run by the German
army.

Virginia Counties Urged
To Resfock Game
BY the Associated Press,

BLACKSBURG, Va, April g.
Other Virginia counties and cities
were urged today by c. o. Handley,
leader of the Virginia Cooperative
Wildlife Research Unit, to follow
the lead of Pulaski County in using
surplus money in the dog fund for
restocking and protecting game
birds and animals.
Through cooperation with the
State Game Commission, Mr.. Hand
ley said, it may be possible for the
localities with such money available
to increase its effectiveness four
fold by obtaining matching funds
from Federal authorities.
Sportsmen in Pulaski County per-
suaded the supervisors to put up
$500 from the dog fund, provided
the game commission would put up
an equal amount, for quail restock-
ing. The commission did even bet
ter by requesting the Biological Sur
vey to provide 81 800 from the Pitt
man-Robertson fund, raised by taxes
on sporting arms and ammunition,
for the project. If this is approved,
the Federal agency will thus match
the local contribution three to one.

ESQ, ,000, 900 would be added to our
national food bill. BY the use Of
foods now available a minimum
adequate diet is estimated to cost
between 18 and 28 cents per person
per day, while q liberal diet runs
from 81 to SO cents. Americas 8 food
bill is approximately $l7,00o. .000, 900
annually, which Is an average of
IS cents per person per day.
However. nearly q third Of the
families average only about 50 in
weekly income. This, for the family
OF four. makes prohibitive q cost
OF more than IS q week for food, or
less than half the Governments 8
allowance for q liberal diet. The
use of only IL pounds of dried grass
leaves year will more than replace
the $40 pounds of fruits and vege-
tables in the ratio now consumed.
The Daily Requirements.
"The daily requirements Of the

age American. which nutritionaly is
q boy OF II or II. or q girl, II to 10,
are: Vitamin A, 11,0O0 international
units; Vitamin B. TOO; Vitamin @,
1880; Vitamin G, 5000. All these
would be contained in a small
amount OF grass"
This leaves out of account, other
chemists said, the unknown factors
in grass which human beings now
get, If at all, by eating the flesh Of
animals which have eaten grass.
Green grass per sc, it was stressed,
is hardly palatable. In the patented
process, Objectionable f1bers are re-
moved from grass grown on special
land with special fertilizers. The
final product is in powder form.
Among the ways in which chemists
reported taking 1t, was mixed in milk
or orange juice. A project now is
being considered for making
grass candy, one piece Of which will
contain all the vitamins necessary
for half a day.
Some of the valuable properties
of grass, Department of Agriculture
chemists explain, are present only
when 1t Is grown in the open. They
are lacking in grass grown in a
The important green
grass factor apparently is not pres
ent in hay. This was first suspected
because Of the rate of growth of
calves left to browse on green grass
compared to those fed in the
stables, Cows also give superior
quality of milk when they are turned
out in the spring.

Bill 70 Simplify Federal
Criminal Procedure Stoned

A bill to pave the way for simph-
fication of criminal procedure in
Federal courts, which White
House statement hailed as "a far
reaching and important step in the
reform of the law" was signed yes
terday by President Roosevelt.
The legislation grants to the Su-
preme Court the power to regulate
criminal procedure along the lines
of an earlier measure that brought
about reforms in civil procedure.
''It is hoped" the White House
statement said, that this grant of
power will result in introducing uni
formity and simplicity in the adj
ministration of criminal justice in
the Federal courts and eliminate
some of the archaic technicalities
which at times hamper or delay
the progress of cases through the
courts"
When the regulatory authority for
civil cases was conferred on the
Supreme Court in 1894 the court
appointed an advisory committee
of eminent members of the bench
and bar which drafted rules of pro-
cedure which, with some modifica-
tons, later were adopted and pro-
mulgated by the Supreme Court.
These, the White House statement
said, have met with general &C
claim and have made an important
delays and diminishing the cost of
contribution toward reducing laws
litigation. 1t is reasonable to ex-
pect similar result in criminal
cases from the legislation just
enacted.

In Exposure Death
Husband Of One Also
Accused Of Binding
Iduhoun in Desert
BY the Associated Press.

| By the Associated Press.
SHCSHONE, Idaho, July a.
Three boys and girl who were
quoted as saying "We didn't intend
to kill hipl-we just wanted to give
him some of the same thing he was
giving u.s." were charged with MUIR
der today for the exposure Staying
of their father
Sheriff G. M. Brown signed the
murder complaint, naming the four
as slayers of Charles Sanders, 48.
retired storekeeper at the ghost
town of Yale, Idaho.
Mr.. Brown said the sons, George,
Is, and Joseph, 20: their sister,
Florence, 10, and her husband, Ches-
ter Phillips, %, were questioned long
hours before they finally told the
officers all about it."
Mistreatment Claimed.
The sheriff said the four accused
Mr.. Sanders of 'mistreating" them.
From their questioning, officers
pieced together the story of the STAY
ing, Mr.. Brown said:
Mr.. Sanders lived with house
keeper at the little community of
Yale. The children had scattered
to nearby towns when the highway
was rerouted to skirt Yale, and Mr..
Sanders abandoned efforts to OPP
crate store there.
About June 81 the four children
went to their fathers house and told
him they wanted to take him for a
ride. They enticed Mr.. Sanders
into the rumble seat of an automo-
bile, then slammed down the top
and drove off across the sagebrush-
covered desert.
Bound and Left.
They dumped him out and the
sheriff quoted Phillips: "We tied
him up so he wouldn't come back"
The housekeeper reported her en-
ployer missing and officers ques-
lions Mr.. Sanders sons and daugh-
ter.
Mr.. Sanders body, showing signs
of terrific struggle, was found
Saturday. Dr. F. w. Howard, Lin
coin County Coroner, said the man
might have lived -four or five days"
after being left on the desert.

BuI II OF
Fletcher, Wieman
Show wGain Here
In StrawVote

There were two who vot-
ed for Wendell L. Willkle
Saturday to every one that
cast a ballot for Franklin
D. Roosevelt in the Post
Press presidential straw vote.
The second day of returns main
tanned almost to a vote the same
trend of the first day in giving
Willkie a slightly better than two
to one lead over the president.
Ed Fletcher OF San Diego, cam
didate for the House of Represen-
tatives, held a commanding lead of
better than four to one over the
incumbent, Ed Izac, maintaining
the same trend, also. Fletcher was
expected to show considerable
strength in Imperial county and
the question appeared to center
upon how much popularity he could
generate in San Diego county, where
Izac has his chief power. There
appeared little doubt but that
Fletcher would carry Imperial.
Most surprising total in the straw
vote Saturday was in the race for
state senate between George Luck
ey, BraWley rancher, and Charles
Wieman, also of Brawley. Trailing
by three votes Friday, Luckey had
fallen six votes behind Saturday.
Political observers had expected
Luckey to show more strength. 1t
was possible, however, that the
straw vote total reelected only
the county's soutnend sentiment.
rather than the county as a whole
and that the actual balloting will
reveal the northend strength.
Meanwhile, late voters were urg-
ed to hurry and cast their ballots
in the Post-Press straw vote. All
that is necessary in order to vote
is to clip a ballot from the paper
and bring or mail it to the Post
Press offices, Ell Centro.
