Women as Well as Girls
Wear Hair Bows. Flowers

That pretty custom of wearing
flower or a bow in the hair is taking
on new Importance this fall, so much
so that the vogue is no longer con-
fined to the young set. Women as
well as girls are taking it up.
In the stores there are to be seen
collections of fascinating little gad-

these dainty fantasies of bows, fow-
ers, and jewel ornaments are each
attached to little combs that proper
ly adjusted anchor the decorative

"All countries including ours

3. Civilian production will be
suspended in areas where labor is
needed for war plants, but allowed
to continue IN areas where labor
supplies are ample.
4. Production will be suspended
or curtailed where power supply or
warehouse accommodations are in@
adequate.
PROBLEMS REMAIN N
The WPB admitted many prob
lens are yet to be solVed-compen-
sation for closed down firms, MAIN
tenance of trademarks and rear
rangement of distributive channels.
But it added that compensation
for suspended factories should come
from those allowed to continue pro-
duction and said concentration
plans should not foster post
domination of an industry by one
or few companies.
Under one plan now being CON-
sidered, small maintenance crews
would be kept in closed-down plants
and the cost of this service possibly
met from the profits of produc-
ing concerns. WPB officials sale
this would allow closed units to re-
sumo production as soon as the wal
is over.

Hull Says World
Will Be Rebuilt

WASHINGTON, July 24-(UP)-
Secretary of State Cordell Hull
warned last night that every one
of the % United Nations, including
the United States, must sacrifice
"time and substance and life itself
to an extent unprecedented in past
history" to defeat the Axis powers.
He voiced the grave warning in
45-minute radio speech his
first since this country's entry in
to war and one which President
Roosevelt had recommended to
every man, woman and child in the
world as a summary of what the
world faces now and in the future
Fighting as we are in self-de-
fense, in preservation, we must
make certain of the defeat and de-
struction of the worldinvading
forces CT Hitler and the Japanese
war lords" Hull said. TO do this,
our people and the peoples of every
one of the 26 United Nations must
make up our minds to sacrifice time
and substance and life itself to an
extent unprecedented in past his
tory.
MUST USE FORCE
international desperadoeS, like
individual bandits, will not aband-
en- outlawry voluntarily. They will
only be stopped by force"
Hull devoted most of the talk to
the world-to-be. That world, he
said, probably must include some
form of international police force
to maintain peace.
Liberty is truly won only when
1t Is guarded by the same Watchful-
ness, the same courage, the same
willingness to fight for it which
first secured it," he said.
POSTWAR NEEDS
Outlining requirements for a
postwar world which would insure
safety, equality and a full and
peaceful life for all, Hull said that
continued association of the United
NatiChs in peace as well as in war
is essential to a satisfactory after
math of the present desperate
struggle.
He predicted that prosperity, in
stead of depression, will follow the
war if the nations of the world

Meat
Supply
Ample

WASHINGTON. July up
Agriculture department officials
said today that a three point pro-
gram designed to relieve tempor-
airy shortage of meat in the east
probably would result in virtually
normal supplies within few days,
probably early next week.
They emphasized that the eastern
shortage" is only temporary and
that there is a record supply of meat
on the hoof. No rationing of meat
is contemplated in the near fu-
ture.
Secretary of Agriculture Claude
r. Wickard announced the program
last night after meat packers In
several eastern cities complained
that they were unable TO buy live
stock at prevailing high prices and
sell dressed meat at ceiling prices
established by the office cf price
administration.
PROGRAM OUTLINED
Wickard's program calls for:
l. Reduction in prices effective
next week to be paid for meat pur-
chased by the government for the
armed forces and for lend-lease
shipment.
3 Establishment of price diff
ferential favoring shipments to
markets in the east.
3. Government SubSidization of
small packers. Lend-lease funds
will be used.
NO PRICE CHANGE
The program does not provide for
any change in prices. housewives
will have to pay-thoSe established
by the OPA. But the reduction
in government prices is expected
to result in slightly lower prices
to meat growers.
Although the shortage" which
became pronounced in some sections
only this week is expected to be
relieved by next week. officials
warned that unusual demands for
meat in the normally slack livestock
season would delay wholly normal
supplies until the fall slaughter sea-
son.
Price Administrator Leon Hend
erson has urged housewives to
"squarely face" that fact and eau
toned them to buy carefully and
buy less" if possible during the next
six weeks.
Wickard's new program reduces
prices the government will pay for
lend-lease meats by one cent
pound in the Chicago area and by
3-4-cent a pound in the east. The
immediate result will be, Wickard
said, that much meat now going to
the government will be diverted do
mestic consumption.
