Christmas Seal
Funds Continue,
But Fall Short
Campaign Now 8 Hundred
Dolldrs Short Of
$500 Goal

Although the annual Christmas
Seal campaign formally closed on
Christmas Day, returns from seals
are still coming in, it was revealed
today by Joseph II. Bishop, general
chairman Of the Columbiana County
Seal drive.
"There are many reasons why Seal
money continues to arrive at cam
paign headquarters" said Mr.. Bishop,
"chief among these are the demands
on everyone's finances just before
Christmas and the fact that many
pay days come shortly after the
Christmas Season, making it possible
for many Of our contributors to send
their money soon after the first of
the year.
at can not be too strongly en-
phasized that the Christmas Seal
wages the battle against tuberculosis
throughout the year. The Seal has
become the emblem Of that battle and
although closely associated with the
Christmas Season because that is
when the greatest emphasis is placed
on it's sale, nevertheless it works for
everyone in the community to protect
him and his family at all times.
Because of this we consider it
quite proper that Seal sale money
should be solicited so long as people
in our communities have unpaid for
Seals in their possession.

INCREASE OF FOOD, MUNITIONS ASKED
Secretary of Agriculture, Claude K. Wickard Ad.
 Vises National Grange

Worcester, Mass. Nov. l3-(UP).- Secretary of Agriculture Claude R, Wickard today called for increased production ot food and munitions for nations resisting aggression 10 assure the defeat of Germany and the adequate defense" of the United States.
 He told the 18th anniversary meeting of the National Grange that Germany can be beaten only by "a superior force Of material and men," then added:
 "The men are there today, :n Russia, China and England. Our greatest need iS to get materials to these men and get them there fast enough If our production Is too little and too late 1t may he too late for us to nope for freedom in our generation"
 He reitreated that American farmers must step up production to all.ttine record highs to provide food for peoples of the United States and Great Britain and for stock piles to feed the impoverished peo- pies of Europe "efter Hitler is de- 9eated."
 FaEzneEs Must Choose Declaring that farmers must 'chocose between the risk involved in producing little too much and the risk of producing c little too lit- tle," Wickard said the government surplus disposal programs can take care Of overproductlon but that there's no remedy for too Nttle."
 "The very safety of our nation would be jeopardised if VIC produced a little too httle," he said. The British defense would falter. Con- suners here would raise their voice in protest. |"
 Turning to the British food prob- lem, he said that some mistaken Ideas about the supply. of food in England have been spread about during recent weeks" and that Brltishers are living on mighty small rations."
 American food, he said. has been going to the British recently at the rate of about 25O.O00 tons a month. He said it represents 6 substantial part" of the British diet and added:
 But in spite of those shipments the British still are on very strict rations of most of the vital foods. Here are the ratlons in effect a few days ago when one of our men left England:
 +Cheeee, three ounces per week; meat, seven ounces; bacon and ham. four ounces: eggs, two per month (when they are available). Mighty Small nzeal
 Those are mighty small rations. I think almost any man here could eat . weeks supply of fresh meat. bacon. ham. eggs and cheese at one meal without feeling he'd overeaten. But the British have been making supplies of that size last each per- son for a week. and they've been do- ing 1t for many weeks.
 There can be no question that the British need vital American foods: all we can send them"
 Tracing the trends ln world af- fairs which condition American for- i eign policy" Wickard said the United States dsglres peace "but not at the price of slavery"

NAACP ASKS PROBE

NEW YORK. Asking for an
investigation of the double
shooting of a Negro soldier and
a white military policeman on a
bus carrying soldiers to Fort
Bragg, n. c., last week, the
NAACP wrote Secretary of War
Henry l.. Stimson that white
military police constitute the
greatest source Of friction and
trouble between races in uniform
and that sooner or later the
Negro soldiers, becoming tired
of the arrogance and brutality
of the white military police,
would be certain to take mat
tiers in their own hands," Curtiss
Todd, member of the NAACP
legal staff of Raleigh, n. C.. was
sent to FIT. Bragg to begin i'm
mediate investigation.
The NAACP declared that the
manner in which the shooting
took place makes it appear that
Sergeant Russell Owens merely
shot the first Negro who happen
ed to emerge from the bus

attention of the Secretary of
War to the Pittsburgh Courier
