Food Car Plan

WASHINGTON, April CUP) =
Plans for food czar, with powers
resembling those of Herbert Hoover
during World War I, were being dis
cussed today by several interested
government agencies.
The proposed car would coordi-
nate the activities of numerous
agencies now dealing in some re-
Spect with food. These include the
war production board, the office of
price administration, the depart
ment of agriculture, the office of
lend-lease administration and the
surplus marketing administration.
Officials said there is considerable
support for separate agency while
some favor Incorporating it within
WPB or the agriculture department.
NO DECISION
although WPB Chairman Donald
n Nelson has made no final de-
cision, associates said he is inclined
to favor a branch in the depart
ment of agriculture They said he
feels that WPB should concentrate
on production of war materials and
~ some other agency might better
Supervise food
II the new agency were placed
within the department of agricul-
ture. 1t was believed Milo Perkins,
executive secretary of the board of
economic warfare, would have
good chance of obtaining the post.
His background in managing the
government distribution of food
through the surplus commodity's
stamp plan won his respect from
government and industrial leaders.
He is a close friend of Secretary of
Agriculture Claude r. Wickard and
has held important posts in the de-
partment.
COMPLETE CONTROL
The present discussions call for a
food czar in complete control over
such now diversified activities as
price fixing, production, purchases
for lend-lease export, consumption
and distribution.
For example, control over sugar
is now divided among the agricul-

LONDON, April CUP) - Russia
indicated today that millions of
tough reserves, trained and hard
ened all winter in the Siberian
SHOWS beyond the Urals, were ready
for action against German efforts
to start spring offensive.
The Soviet news agency Tass re-

sumably Tass meant they had scor-
ed successes against the Nazis.
The new armies come from every
part of the Soviet, Tass said. They
include hardy peasants and rough

hacking the Germans all winter,
and all have received special train
ing as snipers, trench mortar crews,
anti-tank and machine gunners, the

Britain is convinced 5apan will at

Pay increases for the rapidly
growing force of Army, Navy and
other service nurses were assured

under the recently adjusted service
mems Compensation Act.
Primarily, the legislation boosts
the base pay of rank and file nurses
to 81 300 annually, the same received
by an Army second lieutenant and
Navy ensign. Starting pay under
the old schedule was Sl,030 an
nually with an increase of $3.50 per
year for each three years OF service.
The legislation also boosts the pay

WITH THE ALLIED FORCES IN
NEW GUINEA, Dec. 24.-Santa
Claus arrived by plane and jeep
yesterday bringing Christmas cheer
in the form of thousands of Amer
lean Red Cross gift boxes for Amer
lean troops in this jungle war zone.
Despite the urgencies of war
direct orders were given by Gen.
Douglas Macarthur to insure deliv-
cry of the packages to every Amer
ican soldier on the scattered Pacific
battle front. Giant transports were
hastily loaded at Port Moresby to
ferry the Christmas cargo across
the towering Owen Stanley range
thence by jeep and trucks to troops
widely dispersed along the Coma
Buna sector.
Delivered to Every Front Line.
Distribution Of the boxes, con-
tanning hard candy, dried fruit
cigarettes, stationery, gum. tooth
paste and sewing kits, began Mon
day under the supervision of Col
George Degraaf Of San Antonio
Tex, assisted by American Red
Cross Field Directors James Stew
art, Oneonta, N. Y; George Youngs
Cleveland; Harry Poague, Wash
ington, and George Moorad, San
Francisco.
Deliveries have been made to
every front line where Allied troops
are doggedly hammering at enemy
garrisons.
I've never seen such wide grins
as those on the faces of our men
in the steaming jungle camps when
the boxes were passed out. To
make it even better, a big load of
Christmas mail from home arrived
simultaneously" Mr.. Stewart said.
Sergeant Becomes Poetic.
Mr. Moorad helped distribute gifts
In the Cape Endaiadere sector
which the japanese lost on Decem-
Der l8. He was greeted by poetic
Sergt. Marcus Burkholder, Platte
vile, Wis. who recited this version
OF THE Night Before Christmas:
Twas the night before Christmas on
this spot on the map.
Not a creature was stirring, not even
a Jap.
Stockings were hung by the slit
trench with care
In the hope that TOTO soon would
be there.
The boys all were sleeping on wet
beds while visions of
RationS danced in their heads.
When out Of the jungle arose such q
clatter
That l sprang through mosquito net
to see what was the matter.
Then off in the distance came a
familiar sound,
We knew old Nip would soon be
around.
He was heading this way, spreading
Christmas cheer
With plenty of shrapnel not one
can of beer.
We returned his good will within a
few hours
With belletin stating: Buna Village
