CAMPAIGN ON
TO COLLECT ALL
RUBBER STOCKS

In a radio broadcast Friday eve
ming last the President of the United
States called upon the nation to con-
duct an intensive drive to collect all
available scrap rubber. The drive be-
gan midnight, June 14th, and will end
midnight June 30th.
ESQ dealers have been asked by
ESQ Marketers to cooperate in this
drive. The oil industry has been Sc
lected as the principal medium of col
lection with service stations and bulk
plants as the collection depots.
In the announcement mailed to ESQ
dealers here, Mr.. J. E. Skehan, sales
manager ESQ Marketers says:
"Our Government is in need of ev-
cry pound of scrap rubber which can
be salvaged. Your country needs
your help and you are urged to en-
courage all of your customers to bring
in their scrap rubber to you. You
should also canvass your neighbor-
hood for the same purpose"
eve will arrange for the collection
and shipment to the proper Govern
mental authorities. Any difference
between the aggregate cost of all
scrap rubber procured by our COM
pany and the value of all such rubber
sold to the Government is to be di-
vided equally between and donated to
the United Service Organizations,
Army and Navy Relief and American
Red Cross. Not one penny of profit
on the sale of scrap rubber will be
retained by our company and no

Farmers To Supply
Information

To the farmers of Holmes County, H.
l.. Nichols, Chairman of the local USDA
War Board, sends this urgent message:
Every farmer in the United States
is called to the colors. While you are
not asked to shoulder arms and fight
in the front lines, you are asked to
help produce the things which our boys
who are fighting will need. The war
outlook daily grows worse. We must
do something about it. Each individual
must do his part.
"There is an urgent need for increas-
ing the production of cotton l 1-8 inch
staple and longer. Secretary Of Agri-
culture Claude R. Wickard has asked the
farmers of this county to grow their
share of these things and increase long
staple varieties of cotton. We know
we can count on you to do your part.
The first thing you are asked to do
is to fill out the following form at once
and send it to the Chairman of the
County War Board. Delay will seri-
ously hurt the war effort. Act now. We
will appreciate your prompt coopera-
ton in this important matter
