present emergency presents. Some
problems profoundly affect re-
tailers. particularly the proposed

in part:
ANY attempt to put a ceiling
on prices at this time might work
a hardship on many manu-
facturers. distributors and con-
sumers. Hundreds Of IGA re-
tailers now operate under IL per
cent cost Of doing business and
with such low operating costs, a
large portion of the advance in
farm prices and labor costs is
being absorbed without serious
advance in consumer prices. II
prices are stopped from going alb
normally high. there will be no
serious reaction when the emer-
gency ends"

Pierce county schools. excluding
Tacoma's. Tuesday had an APP
proximate attendance of 1890
students considerably higher
than last year at the same time
Supt. Percy Cox announces.
The total. after the first week,
was approximately the same as
the total counted after a full
month OF school a year ago, ac-
cording TO Cox.
II was pointed out. however, that
figures from many schools in the
county had not yet been received.
Among these unreported schools
were those of Puyaliup. which are
expected TO show healthy gair
this year.
Due 10 Defense Work
Cox said the schools south anc
west of Tacoma, as we'll as those
on the peninsula near the KitsaT
county line. all had greatly in
creased enrolment 49, not unex
pected as these schools are located
in national defense work areas
such as Fort Lewis, McChord field
and Bremerton.
More complete and exac'
figures will not be available be
fore the end of the week. Cox ex
planned, and 1t likely will be mid
October before a genuinely &C
curate picture of the schooling
situation may be gained.

No attendance check on cit,
schools has been made since tn
second day. when a decrease o
1856 students was reported. Supt

Local Legionnaires Hear Commander
Describe English Defense Methods

A delegation of Bluffton Legion
naires was in Wapakoneta Monday
night to hear Milto T. Warner, of
Toledo, national commander of the
Legion, report findings made by the
special Legion commission to study
conditions in England.
Warner was one of the members
of the commission which went to
Europe via the Clipper ship route,
and investigated the English home
defense setup.
Those representing the Bluffton
post at Wapakoneta included Ralph
Stearns, Quinten Burkholder, Clair
Fett, Arthur Amstutz, Gilbert Fett,
Howard Stauffer, Amos Tschiegg,
Harry Tripplehorn, Clarence Rockey,
Millen Geiger and Irwin Woods.
Burkholder was honored at the
meeting as the special guest of Sec
ond District Commander Lloyd Kel-
ley, of Kenton, as the Allen county
legionnaire who obtained the most
new members of the organization in
a January membership drive.
In commenting on the investigation
made in England, Warner stated
that he would hate to be an enemy
| parachutist landing on British soil.
British preparations for home de-
fense are usually thoro, the Legion
commander commented, and the
island has recovered miraculously
from the heavy air raids of fall and
winter months.
Recommending "all-out" aid to
Great Britain, Warner said that
with our assistance in the way OF
materials the British should ulti-
mately win in the present war that
has engulfed most of Europe.
