The wheat is exchanged dur

is made into bread, etc.
Last June the 1941 crop of
500 bushels was SAFELY stored
away.
Last week, the AAA decreed
that Leo and the infirmary have
exceeded their AAA wheat
quota by five acres, and that
if they want to use the wheat
to exchange for flour to make
bread, ETC., then Leo must put
40 cents per bushel on the line,
as penalty, on about 200
bushels.
1--WE raise wheat for about
100 patients at the infirmary
and then we got to pay the
government to eat it," demands
Leo.
"It's the law according to the
marketing quota of May, 194l,
under which all area over 10
acres is affected, unless you
have an allotment. And you
don't have one," replies Martin.
If Leo refuses to pay tho
penalty, then he says he will
store it away until next July,
and with the several hundred
bushels of ripe wheat in the in
Urinary bins, he will take
County money to buy wheat
from other farmers.
Replies Martin: "The law says
you can bond excess quota
wheat and hold 1t until the
spring. But the County can't
give q bond, I think"
From the sidelines, it looks as
though Martin has the better of
the argument. Leo, however.

can't be released with paying

its nucleus the fifth division of

ing Blue National Guard" out
Ats from New York, Illinois,
Tennessee, Ohio, Missouri, Kan
sas and Nebraska, General
Ridley smiled.
They are fine type of men,
these men of the Fifth and
Sixth" he said. Like all sell
ectees, they are learning fast.
They are intensely interested.
Above all, they have high spirit.
"They were anxious to cross
that river and start chasing the
Blues. They wanted to get
started before we were ready
for the crossing to be made, and
that in spite of the drenching
rain that mired the swamp
along the river banks, setting
up the most trying field condi-
tions. But when the test came,
there was no confusion.
MAKE CROSSING
They made that river cross
ing, stealthily. at night, with a
smoothness that indicates the
spirit of both divisions.
These men have been
through hard test in these
maneuvers. They traversed
hundreds of miles to reach the
area. They have experienced
night marches, loss of sleep.

NATIONAL ISSUE
Observers agree that the de-
mobilization of the army and de-
tense workers generally should
be dealt with first. That phase Is
more or less national.
Of more direct interest to local
authorities is the attempt to
plan for public works and activi-
ties to create q reserve" of
projects which can be called into
action when needed locally or
when called for by national
policy.
The Mayor and City Engineer
E. L. Pettingill have held several
conferences in an effort to de-
termine possible public works
for Mount Clemens, and appli-
cation has been made in WASH
ington for several playground
developments. It is expected
that additional projects will be
recommended shortly by City
officials.
MAY FORM GROUP
The Mayor has under consid-
Grafton the creation of an in
informal discussion group, con-
sisting of representatives from
county and civic welfare agen-
cies, service groups, industry,
labor, the press, and other COM
munity leaders to discuss the
problems Of the post-defense Pc
riod.
OUTLINE INCOMPLETE
Although the outline Of pos
sible post-defense activities, is
far from complete, the Mayor
feels that such q group would
direct attention to post-defense
planning problems, to indicate
the areas which are in need OF
exploration, and to invite the
cooperation of public and pri-
vate agencies "in this important
and intricate task"
As he commented before the
City Commission this week,
when this war is won we can
lose everything we are armina
to defend If, in the transition to
peace, we slip back to low
national income with its newt
able unemployment and loss OF
freedom. To discover ways ia
work out the plans for shifting
from full employment for de-
tense to full employment fol-
peace is a matter Of outstanding
public concern!

whether all the attacks occurred

He left little doubt that he
approved the action of the COM
mander in taking immediate
steps against the submarine by
dropping powerful depth charg-
eS.
Mr.. Roosevelt said it was very
fortunate the destroyer was not
hit, remarking that it was be-

poor. He would not disclose
whether the undersea crafts per-
iscope was above water, declar-
