this story: With pork prices
frozen at nearly the highest prices
in two decades, Farmer j. J. Hash
of Barboursville, is feeling pretty
proud of a litter of 20 pigs far
rowed by his registered SOW.
Nineteen Of the piglets survived
and are being given the best of
care = individual bottles, hand
feeding and everything. Eight
pigs we are told, is the average
litter.

American Eagle Syrnb01izes
Fiberg1as i'm Victory Fleet

Glass fiber materials produc-
ed in the Newark Fiberglas plant
are widely employed in the con-
struction of both merchant and
Naval vessels. At the present
time more than rs shipyards are
using fiberglas heat insulating
materials in their various forms
to insulate refrigerated spaces,
bulkheads, living spaces, pipes,
ventilating ducts, castings and
boiler uptakes.
Use of spirally-wound fiber
glas tapes for wrapping insulat-
ed shipboard piping results in a
great saving of time as compar-
ed to the application of cloth
with sewn seams. In the field
of Naval construction, fiberglas
insulating board faced with fib-
erglas cloth is used to provide
both heat insulation and interior
finish, thereby saving large
amounts of aluminium formerly
employed for the latter purpose.
Another advantage possessed
by the fiberglas material is its
light weight, making it possible
to affect a saving in deadweight
of vessels on which it is employ
ed.
Tapes, braids and cloths woven
of glass yarns produced in the
Newark plant are used for cleo
trical insulation on both mer-
chant and navy ships. Fiberglas
electrical insulation is able to re-
place non-ferrous (textile quail
ity) asbestos brought from Af-
rican mines, and it's use in COM
bination with mica decreases the
drain on supplies of mica import
ed from the mines of India. Be-
cause of it's resistance to high
temperatures, the fiberglas in
sulation enables shipboard cleo
trical equipment to stand up un-
der heavy overloads.
At the present time, approx
imately 81 per cent Of the en-
tire output of the Newark plant
is devoted to war production. In
addition to their shipboard use,
fiberglas electrical insulation ma
terials are used in bomber and
fighter planes, in tanks and 9TH
er army motorized equipment,
and in machines required to pro-
duce the weapons and munitions
of war.

HOW To-

SALVAGE IT!
Our Duty To Vote

Citizens of Newark and
Licking county-it is not on
ly our privilege, but our du-
ty to vote Tuesday, August
Il. Right now, more than
Wa any time in the history
of our nation, we should be
aware of the Importance of
exercising our right of fran
chise.
Thousands of American
boys, and yes, women, too
ARE offering their lives on
the blood-red battlefields of
total war to protect this
very right, which we have
been all too often inclined to
disregard.
To those who do not vote
in the coming primary and
general elections = we are
bound to say they do not
have a very keen percep-
ton of just what that right
means, and are not aware
of the vital issues at stake
in this fight for world free
dom. 1t should be a fair
question to ask: Are non
voters really worthy of the
lives of youths being sacri-
ficed to protect them and
their privileges?
1t is the duty of every one
of us, as citizens, to go to
the polls and vote our con-
victions, so that our govern
ment will have in it's legis-
lative halls, and in the var
ious offices down to the
smallest hamlet, men who
will fight through to evenu-
al victory-for the good of
all, and to preserve our DEM
Ocratic America.
After some downright
straight thinking-go to the
polls and vote, Tuesday, Au-
gust II.

Worst Offenders

While we have not had the
opportunity to get around in
other states recently to
judge for ourselves we are
nevertheless inclined to
agree with Birkett Williams,
Ohio regional OPA admins
traitor, that "Ohio drivers

ders of the Office of Price
Administrators tire con-
servation program.
Administrator Williams
made his observation on re-
turn from an official trip
through Ohio, West Virgin
ia and Pennsylvania, during
which he made rare use of
his automobile. He said he
was amazed at the tire
wasting speed of CONNER
cial trucks and passenger
cars drivers on state high
ways"
We say to Mr.. Williams
that we are amazed at the
tire-wasting speed of truck
and car drivers right here in
Newark and Licking county.
Not only from the stand
point of speed outside of the
business districts on East
and West Main streets, but
from the countless drivers
gping to work in the morn
ings all by themselves, bliss
fully ignoring the govern
ment's plea for "share the
ride clubs" etc. This point
was proven emphatically in
a statement issued by O. A.
(Ted) Helser, Newark,
whose committee made a
thorough investigation re-
Gently.
Mr.. Williams gave the lie
ense plate numbers of Of
Tending drivers to his ration
tng boards and said he hop
ed the drivers tire rationing
board would be advised $50
that when he tries to get
another tire or a recap, he'll
have some trouble"
There may be a sound
idea there. All of us want
to win the war-perhaps it
would be a good idea for us
to police each other on this
tire business.
