PHILIPPINE ASSETS FROZEN DUE TO
 ENEMY OCCUPATION

In view of the situation created by the temporary enemy occupation of important parts of the Philippine Islands, the Treasury Department has issued Public Circular no. II calling attention to the fact that Philippine assets have been auto matieally frozen under the Decem- Der 26, 1941. amendment to the freezing orders. it was announced this week by Secretary of Alaska. E. L. Bartlett.
 The new public circular prescrib- ed that for purposes of the freezing orders the Philippine Islands should be regarded as if they were a separ- ate blocked country and that Jan uary l, 1912 should be regarded as the effective date of the freezing regulations as applied to the Phil ippines. This was done to facilitate the administration of freezing con trol over Philippine assets and also to provide the public with specific standards to guide their compliance with the freezing regulations relat- ing to the Philippines. For all prac- tieal purposes this had the same eff feet as though freezing control had been specifically extended to the Philippine Islands on January 1. 1942.
 The public circular also announc- ed that census reports on Form TER 300 were required to be filed with respect to Philippine assets. Details regarding this requirement. will be announced later. Certain general li- censes relating to the Philippine Is

Sugar Ration Cards

A total of 2O,517 applications were
made for sugar ration books in Gar
rett county, it was announced this
morning by the county rationing
board Of this number the school
teachers issued 1854 books, the re-
naming number having too much

WOMEN SET PRECEDENT in
STYLING WORK GARMENTS
Victory Style Revue Last Week
Is Addressed by Miss Helen
Shelby, Clothing Specialist

Garrett County Homemakers have
set precedent in the state by styling
work garments at a victory style
revue last week at Mt. Lake Park.
Miss Helen Shelby, clothing special
list, University of Maryland, declared
that Garrett county was the first
place where she had seen homemakers
style work garments. "In the past"
she said, rural women have avoided
being seen in garments worn for
work, but with the present emphasis
in the designing of work clothes the
picture is changed and these garments
are worn with pleasure and pride.
Miss Shelby was the principal
speaker at the afternoon session of
the style revue held last Wednesday
in the Bowling Alley at the Park
In the line of clothing of the future,
Miss Shelby said that "women would
wear what they have and be happy
about it. Fashion has been frozen at
a point where the clothing is of a
comfortable, practical and attractive
style. Clothing will be made to last,
and old garments will be rcmodeled
and adapted to new uses"
"The present fashion stagnation
and fabric limitation need not mean
that women are not we'll dressed" she
stressed "for by increased emphasis
on good grooming and caution in Sc
lection and care of clothing, the
women may present an even better
appearance.
The revue of work garments. spon-
sored by the clothing committee of
the County Homemakers' clubs was
combined with a general overview of
the present food program. Miss Mari
anna Lee Long, home demonstration
agent, said that though only a very
few garments were shown, a good
picture of the clothing program was
presented.
Mrs. W. W. Dewitt, Hoyes club,
spoke on Victory Gardens; Mrs c. c.

Much interest and a great deal of

Park retired Presbyterian minister,
who wrote the covenant that many of
the older men of the county are sign
ing to meet the invader at the sea
coast if necessary and to give their
lives to keep America free.
A number of the blanks have been
filled in and mailed to this office,
while DR.. Love has had many signers
to copy Of the covenant which he
has
The blank is appearing again in
The Republican this week. Ono per
son who personally brought his pledge
to the office this week, said, 1--WE
arc willing to fight and die if ncccs-
sary, but we also want to know that
government officials are giving up
everything but war essentials, and
that they are cutting out all their fool
ishness and getting down to business,
too. We arc patriotic. We want them
to he too.
Another person, although signing
the pledge, thought it should be
called the Legion Of Life" for if it
failed, there would be no life or lib
crty for anyone.
