Preparedness Day Exhibition
To Show ARP Corps in Action

protect our buildings because of
this regulation. However, the De-
fense Corps answers this writer
that some means will be found to
eliminate this problem in the i'm
mediate future.
Complaint Dept.
Some criticism has been spread
ing around town that the Defense
Corps is not obtaining the mater
ials needed by some defense units.
The Cooperator is interested in
facts and wants its readers to
know them. Recently some men,
bers of the Auxiliary Firemen
have been selling tickets to clam
bakes, raffles, punch board
chances, etc. informing the public
that these means were necessary
to raise necessary funds for ma
terials as the Defense Corps has
refused to donate funds for these
purposes. George Panagoulis has
no record of any request for funds
for the Auxiliary Firemen except
one for coveralls and the Corps
has granted that. All requests for
funds have to be presented to the
Corps-if granted, another hitch
may occur in obtaining the equip
ment without delay. This may
seem difficult to understand but
when we consider the rubber
shortage it seems plausible that
rubber articles may not be easy
to procure. The Corps, at no
time, has received any request
for funds from the Auxiliary
Firemen and it is certain that any
request from this or any other
unit will be given prompt consid-
Grafton and action.
News
A drive will be initiated soon
to fingerprint all residents of
Greenbelt to serve as identified
ton in case of air raids, ETC.,
whereby a person may be so badly
injured as to appear physically
unidentifiable. The Salvage Pro-
gram has been discontinued tenn.
porarily because of (1D lack of
sufficient personnel on the Salvage
Committee, and (2) lack of CO.
operation on the part of Greenbelt
residents. Scrap metal is prac-
tically non-existent in Greenbelt
and the cost of picking up the
few bundles of paper is prohibi-
tive. Paper sells for 25 cents per
100 pounds and the Committee
has collected about $40 worth
since the drive started. Coupling
this fact with tht fact that people
have been giving them to private
dealers makes it understandable
why the Salvage Committee has
discontinued it's functions.
Defense Bonds and Stamps
A house-to-house canvass has
begun to determine approximately
the amount of bonds and stamps
being purchased by Greenbelt res
idents irregardless as to where
these are being bought.

By PHIL WEXLER

The Defense Council announces
a Preparedness Day exhibition of
defense activities to be held in
the very near future. The Emer-
gency Medical Service will esta-
blish temporary casualty station
and first-aid post, the firemen will
exhibit their technique in exiting
uishing incendiary bombs, "cas-
ualties" will be treated on the
spot, AFRAID wardens will dem
onstrate the efficiency of their
organization, the police will take
care of the crowd and traffic, the
Motor Corps will exhibit their
means of transporting the injured,
and a public address system will
be set up advising the audience
as to each units functions. Fur
ther details will be published in
the next issue of the Cooperator.
Report
All members of the Emergency
Medical Service attended to their
duties during the last two black
out periods. The Service is, how
ever, still incomplete. A meeting
will be held sometime next week
to enlist and enroll members Off
cially into the organization.
Members will be given identified
ton armbands, will be fingerprint-
ed and will be given necessary in
structions as to duties. A gas-de-
tense training course may be
initiated in the near future.
A good supply of blankets, heat
ing pads, and other medical essen
tials have been received from the
County Civilian Defense Corps.
Cots are needed for the casualty
station and plans are afoot to
blackout the Auditorium Casualty
station) in times of emergency.
Closer cooperation with the am
bulance units is needed and DR..
Joseph Silagy requested that the
Motor Corps have at least one unit
stationed at the casualty hospital
during blackouts and air raids.
Motor Corps
County officials have notified
Thomas Kicker that equipment
for the Corps Headlight covers,
windshield stickers, stretchers,
etc. will soon be sent to Green
belt.
Blood Bank
Mrs. Margaret Miller reports
that her unit has been functioning
efficiently and that the cooper
alton Of residents has been
splendid. Eighteen donors have
contributed thus far to the War
Emergency Blood Bank. The Hy-
attsville Motor Corps gets our
weekly bouquet for being so help
full in providing transportation to
Washington for blood donors.
Our regrets are extended to Mrs.
Miller who, due to doctors orders,
has been forced to resign from
active duty with the Defense
Corps.
Problem Dept.
1t appears that due to some
Federal regulation no one without
a Federal permit may drive a
Federal vehicle and no monies
can be expended by citizens for
the protection of Federal proper
ty. This means that the volunteer
firemen can't drive our fire truck,
very few are permitted to drive
the station wagon and some town
trucks owned by the government.
Sandbaps can't be purchased to

OUR
NEIGHBORS
Hello, Greenbelt:

The subject Of bowling appear
ed in the news last week when
the "BDLs", Greenbelt Women's
bowling team. received a trophy
from Charlie Gentiel of the Col
lege Park Bowling Alleys, as first
place team of Greenbelt. Mrs.
Frank Lastner, who accepted the
trophy for her team, also received
one as the outstanding Greenbelt
bowler of the year. Election of
new officers for the league were
held, the official score-keeper
being Mrs. Bowman; Ronnie
Wright, Treasurer; Myrtle Brit
tingham, President. Captains of
the individual teams will be elect
ed at the beginning of the season
next fall.
Captain James Flood, of Phila-
delphia, and Mrs. Flood were here
this week visiting his sister, Mrs.
Hugh Hawkins at AID Ridge
Road. Captain Flood, formerly
associated with the famous DR..
Stokes of Philadelphia, enlisted in
the Army last month, and received
a doctors commission. He left
Wednesday for Fort Bragg, S. c.,
and will 60 on from there to a
camp at Jacksonville, Florida.
Mrs. Flood returned to Philadel-
phia. Also visiting the Hawkins
was Mrs. Hawkins sister, Miss
Blanche Flood, defense director
of Nassau Hospital at Mineola.
New York. Miss Flood arrived Sat-
urday and returned Monday morn
ing. Mr.. Hawkins is our Drug
Stores fountain manager, and ex-
planned the Coca Cola situation in
such a maner that it is at last un-
derstandable. Each retail drug
store receives 80 per cent of the
amount of coke syrup they used
year ago. Greenbelt's doubling
population explains why this
amount is much less than 80 per
cent OF the amount that would
be necessary in order to meet de-
mands. Greenbelt gets it's quota
from the Washington Tobacco
Company, the only coke distribu-
tor in this vicinity. They, in turn.
receive only 80 per cent of last
years sales, and the Washington
still. o"
Little Anthony Schaeffer, who
is not quite three years old. has
a very advanced understanding Of
and aRprecia I'M for-gec music.
Recently some friends were at his
mothers house, and a neiehbor
who knew Anthony's musical
about t. ANTHONY, AS sln his she motses osaers
said, "What would you like Mama
to play on the records for YOU? )
Anthony stared for a moment,
his face lit up, and he said. "I

petcing to hear Mozart" Beeth-
oven,' or Schubert" it was
amusing-and l think a good
thlng-to find that he is normal
as we'll as gifted.

Elephant Throws Eagle

When a golden eagle escaped
from the zoo in Leningrad, Russia,
recently, the noise Of street cars
and automobile horns so frighten-
ed it that it speeded back home
and landed on the back of an ele-
phant, but the beast, with a whisk
of it's trunk, shot the prodigal
into a corner.

Army Navy Relief Funds

The Greenbelt Theatre, in CO.

theatres throughout the United
States, is collecting funds for the
Army and Navy Relief Fund.
Misses Betty Andrus, Jerry And
rus, June and Ora Donoghue and
Louise Ritter are the attractive
collectors and they report a very
satisfactory sum collected to date.

1t seems strange that the Amer
ican aborigines, who cultivated
and developed very large num-
her of food plants, were so COM
pletely lacking in domesticated
animals. But the Indians were
primarily agriculturalists. The
abundant game, fish, and other
wild food waiting for the taking
made it unnecessary for them to
tame and confine animals and
birds.
Greenbelt cooperator., 1942-05-15


Your refrigerator can save your
time if you use it right. When you
mix dough for cookies, rolls, pie,
even some kinds of cake, make
two or three times your recipe.
Keep the rest in your refrigerator
to use as you need it. Be sure to
wrap it in wax paper or cover it
tightly to keep it from drying out.
Wash and prepare fresh vege-
tables for cooking before you put
them away in the refrigerator.
Fixed ready for cooking, they will
keep crisp and fresh in jar with
tight lid or in wax paper.
ZIPPERS
Save your old zippers to use
again, warns the Consumer Di-
vision of OPA. To conserve cop
per, steel, and zinc, a recent WPB
order reduced the amounts of
metal upper makers could use,
banished neck-to-hem zippers,
zippers on footwear, pocketbooks.
:orsets, furniture covers, gloves,
and long list Of other products.
There will be enough slide fasten-
ers for the really useful garments
like work jackets, skirts and
trousers, though.
It's a good idea to save hooks
and eyes and snappers, too, be-
cause steel and zinc used in max
ing them will be cut in half this
year.
CIRDLES WITH LESS STRETCH
To stretch the limited amount
of elastic thread we have on hand,
corsets, girdles, and brassieres
will have about half as much rub
Der yarn in them as formerly, ac-
cording to WPB order. Cutting
down the stretch will double the
number of garments that can be
made from present yarn supplies,
put off for many months the day
when you have to do without
them, officials estimate.
PHONOGRAPH RECORDS
Begin to plan on sharing your
phonograph records with your
neighbors, or forming record
clubs and libraries, because from
now on manufacturers are going
to make only 80 per cent as many
new ones as formerly. That's to
save our shellac, that used to
come almost entirely from India,
for munitions, signal flares and
other vital military uses.
STORING YOUR CAR?
Here's advice given by the Bur-
eau of Standards about putting
cars in dead storage for the dur
alton:
Wash, wax and thoroughly lu-
bricate.
Remove all gasoline; it may
form deposits and interfere with
the fuel pump and carburetor
when the car is put back in serv-
ice. Remove oil if in engine over
200 miles.
Drain the cooling system and
remove hose connections.
Block up car and def1ate tires
or store them in cool dark loca-
ton. Soapstone powder busted on
tires and tubes will give added
protection.
Don't count on saving the bat
terry for more than a year; sell
it instead.
Sprinkle two or three pounds
or observation-disclosures crystals
or flake napthalene over cushions
and upholstery cracks to protect
against moths.
