Many Of you will remember when White Owl
sold for ten cents each
), and you'll remember what news it was
when we worked out way to give smokers
the same quality cigar and reduce the price,
first to 3 for 25e
.: then TO for 15F.
Millions and millions of White Owls were
sold at these lower prices, but we were not
satisfied. We figured that all smokers wanted
a cigar of White Owls quality. We reasoned
that what we would lose in profits by still
further lowering the price would be more
than made up by extra sales, when more
smokers could afford the cigar.
SO WHITE OWL BLAZED A TRAIL main
tanning the quality and lowering the price
through series of reductions to FIVE cents,
during 192O-1931. The results made cigar
history. Sales in that period scared to a total
of 2,s9o,O0O,OOO cigars. In fact-more men
have smoked White Owls than any other cigar
ever made in the United States.

From that time on we have continued to i'm
prove White Owls -: buying better and better
tobaecOs blending generous helping Of
Hapana tobacco Wftb mild AmerieaN teaf
Today, we can honestly say that it is an even
finer cigar than it was when it cost 1Of.
But this is wartime with higher costs all
along the line-including Uncle Sans need
for extra taxes to help win this war. SO, ii has
become impossible to continue to make a
cigar of White Owls quality and still keep
the price at five cents.
Therefore, we are reluctantly raising the
price TO six cents each White Owls first
price rise in twenty-five years.
At the same time, we give you two solemn
pledges:
1. We mW maintain While OuIs bigb quality.
2. We tIH return TO the fire cent price at The
earliest moment that costs make it possible.
Keep these pledges in mind when you buy
White Owls at the new price of six cents each.

 Italian production has been dove Jailed with German war needs in .an effort to relieve German labor @or front line duty and to prevent ItaIy's economic collapse.

 It is estimated that one of every three u-boats that puts to sea, is lost. The names of the famous sub marine commanders no longer ap- pear in official reports. The pub lici2ed commanders are newcomers.
 Experts believe Hitler now has between 200 and 300 submarines in action and is producing them at the rate of about IS month. In peak months, the output may reach 25, but only at a sacrifice in other ship construction.

 FOOD
 The Germans probably eat better than any other people i'm Europe, but there have been new and dras- tic cuts in allOtments this year and 1t is believed that another cut will come this summer, reducing the 1942 meat ration to the equivalent of about five hamburgers per per- son per week. The fat ration has been cut to less than half pound weekly and potatoes to five pounds.
 LOOT
 Germany has footed the con. quered areas of Europe of about S36, 900, ,OOO, 900 iH cash and goods, which is enough to pay for HitIer's seven years of re-armament. The Nazis also have executed almost 100000 persons, most of them In Russia, i'm carrying out their pro- gram of: "Be my brother, or I'll smash your head!" It is estimated that S7,5OO were executed in Po- land, 5000 in Jugoslavia, 5000 in CzechOslOvaIxia, 1,5OO fin France and Belgium and 300 in Holland.
 MORALE
 The Italians are kept i'm the war and MussOlini is kept in power largely because of the threat of German occupation of Italy. Ger man morale is definitely not at the breaking point but has suffered ser- iOus blows due to the reverses in Russia and the declaration of war against the United States, which was unpopular in both Italy and the Reich. The Nazis are still firmly in power In Germany and likely to be busted only if they suffer a great military defeat. Churches in Ger many are crowded despite the Nazis' efforts to discFedit religious organizations.
 OUTLOOK
 Hitler still has a firm grip on Germany and Europe and, with the aid of stronger propaganda shots in the army, is intensifyi7~ f''' Axis total war effort in hope of winning this summer before Gile strain becomes unbearable and be- fore American productive power Is fully effective. Only total war ef- fort can beat him. No others need apply.

Rianes Sweep Over France

London, May l8 -CUP)- Int Royal Air Force resumed its day fight sweeps over northern France today, continuing an attack which started during the night when heavy Explosions from the occupied French coast shook the ground on the Eng Esh side of the channel.
 Strong formations crossed the aukheast coast cliffs this morning sweeping toward the opposite coasN 6rosm Boulogne to Calais. Heavy Explosions, which seemed to come from the inland area beyond Calais, were heard.
 During the night, the Royal Air Force apparently attacked objec- tiveg from Boulogne to Dunkirk. Two hours after midnight, heavy and continuous explosions shook the around along the Kent coast. Short " after midnight, radio Berlin left the aig for the first time in more 4han a week. This usually is an Indication that hostile planes are approaehing.

There, while guarding against a British invasion and awaiting chance to attack the vital Allied northern supply route to Russia, It has been damaged by 9 British sub marine torpedo.
 Apparently, the air ministry said, It was on its way to a dockyard In Germany for repairs when British reconnaissance planes sighted 1t yesterday, steaming southward along the coast with its escort Of destroyers and fighter planes.
 A flash to the British coastal com- gnand sent a fleet of Beauforts, Hudsons, Blenheims and tough Beaufort fighters to attack the Ger man formation, with orders to cen- ter on the Prinz Eugen.
 The planes sighted it during the night of the southern tip of Nor way and attacked.
 The German fighters raced to the rescue but the British planes fought their way into through the desper- ate gIlnfire of the PrinZ Eugen and it's destroyers, and while dozens of .Aog fights proceeded above, the Beauforts, according to preliminary air ministry reports, succeeded Ill putting torpedoes into it.
 The German high command, tn It's version, said that "in the north- Ern North Sea, strong British air formations attacked the cruiser Prinz Eugen without success ana were repulsed with heavy losses" It said go British planes were downed.
 The Prinz Eugen is one of a class of five German 10,000-ton cruisers with 830 officers and men.
 It carries eight 8-inch guns, 12 anti-aircraft guns and 12 anti-air- craft machine guns in addition to torpedo tubes and four airplanes, hanagared midships between the funnel and the mainmast.
 British reconnaissance photo graphs taken after the submarine torpedoing of the PrinZ Eugen showed that it had been badly dam aged in it's vulnerable after part.
 The text of the communique said:
 sThe German cruiser Prinz Eugen was reported yesterday by recon naissance aircraft to be steaming south along the coast of Norway.
 'The vessel had been lying in Trondheim fjord, after it had been damaged by one of his majesty's submarines, and was evidently mak- ing It's way back to dockyard in Germany.
 "The coastal command sent out q striking force of Beauforts, Hud- sons, Blenheims and Beaufort fight CTS, which attacked the PrinZ Flu gen during the night near the southern tip of Norway.
 Preliminary reports indicate she was hit by torpedoes from the Beauforts, which were led by Wing Comdr. M. F. D. Williams.
 The Prinz Eugen was escorted by westroyers and formations of fight CTS.
 There was a heavy engagement in which Beaufort fighters raked the decks of the destroyers with cannon fire and many combats took pEace.
 Five Messerschitt-l l09s were de- stroyed and a number of other en- enny planes damaged.
 "None of our aircraft are miss ing."
