185 assignment slips made out for
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
calls and .telephoned retailers this
morning.
While the "heavy" drive included
all business, industrial and CONNER
call houses in the District, the largest
concentration of these can be found
in the downtown area.
Originally one retailer had been
assigned to the area on the theory
that he could handle the job in view
of the meager showing of the
heavy" drive through Sunday.
More Dealers Assigned.
The offer OF pickup service, how
ever, produced such a volume Of
calls Monday that Mr.. Walker as
signed a second man to the down.
town collection beat.
Today he added three more and
announced he would caN on the
services of a sixth If necessary.
Junk dealers handling downtown
assignments today, according to Mr.
Walker, are Frank Battista. 1921
Fifth street NV; Ben Savage, 3045
K street NV: Michigan Junk Co.
458 Virginia avenue SW.; Anacostia
Junk Co. and Myer Brenner.
Meanwhile, so other retailers were
asked to double and redouble theil
efforts to pick up donations in othel
sections of town, depending on TIT
areas which have been assigned tt
them.
A new menace to the scrap meta
drive and its future is cropping up
Mr.. Walker added, due to the Army
draft and the scarcity of junk-yare

Information Must
Be Given Bears To Il
Classify Men

State headquarters of selective
service announced it's interest in
securing all available information
for classification of registrants.
1t. Col. Lawrence w. Long. state
director, stated that it is the re-
sponsibility of the individutl, as
well as the employer, to provide
such information. Particularly is
this true in regard to the occupa-
tional status of registrants who
might fulfil the requirements of a
necessary man, in an essential &C
tivity.
Employers must keep currently
informed of the status of their en-
ployees. The information they sho
-uld have is dates of ID registra-
ton, CD receipt of QUESTIONABLE,
CD receipt of notice to report for
local physician examination, "a
receipt of notice of classification,
The Mississippi enterprise. (Jackson, Miss.) 1938-current, 1942-11-07

go filing of request for occupa-
tional deferment, (6) appeal and
report of same, CD receipt of no
tice to report for induction.
1t is the responsibility of the
employer to notify the local board
when a change is made in status
occurs and cancel any claim of
defermen when seperatian is made.
No claim should be made on en-
ployees who are not key men ne
cessary in an essential activity.
Regardless of the present classifi-
cation of the employee, each en-
ployer must inform the local board
concerned in regard to his employ
ment status No registrant CLASH
fled as a necessary man can enlist
in any of the services. These clas-
sifications are liza, lib and lib.
If an employer has an employee
in class lila who is engaged in
an essential activity now he sho-
uld request the local board to place
the registrant in class lib, since
class lila registrants are now be-
ing reclassified and indicted.

There are 400 auxiliary patral-

making every effort to enfore the
35-mile speed limit in Mississippi.
According to the plan as set up by
the Patrol, any speeder will be

Induction Will Be
Continued With
Holiday Pause

Army training schedules and in
duction procedure will continue,
with but brief pause, through the
Thanksgiving and Christmas Holt
day periods, according to a War
Department announcement released
today in the southeast headquar-
ters, Fourth Service command.
AS any delay in induction or sus-
pension of training in war time
is inconsistent and contrary to the
basic requirement of building a
well trained Army, it was pointed
out, induction and routine training
schedules will be continued during
these ornmal vacation periods, with
the exception of November 26 and
December 25.
On these dates registrants will
not be ordered to recruiting and
induction stations for examination
and induction. Men previously in
Quoted who are at home on the
IA day furlough period to settle
personal affairs and who normally
would be ordered to reception CEN
ters on those dates, will have the
period extended by one or two days
to allow them to spend Thanksgiv-
ing or Christmas with their famil-
les.
1t was also announced that the
policy of granting furloughs and
passes for the period from Thanks
giving to New Years inclusive,
will be necessarily restrictive.

Gated later by the Army. The hour
will not be known by the public
until the warning is actually SOU
nded.
Colonel Morgan urges all civil
protection units of the local CT
william defense organizations to be
prepared to respond when the
time comes for the alert to be
sounded. Observers representing
the Army will check on the effec-
tiveness of the blackout from pla-
mes in many parts of the state,
Ground spoilers will check on ma
ny other areas.
The responsibility for preparing
for and carrying out blackout
programs rests upon the comman-
der of the civil protection unit in
each county, municipality, or sma-
Her organized area.

Vegetable Producers
Face Big Army Task

Vegetable producers and cam

for 50,000,000 pounds of quick fro
zen vegetables from the 1913 crop

rtermaster branch, Fourth Ser

If the request is met as it is
expected to be, according to Quar-
termaster officers, the big order
will benefit the nations growers
and Gamers as well as the frozen
food industry because the Army's
use of frozen foods in this country
will result in either releasing a
large supply of canned foods to

meet ever increasing demands of
the troops overseas, or it will re-
suit in a diversion of raw vege-
tables from canning to freezing.
Such diversion it is declared,
would save about $4,000 pounds
of tin and 100000 pounds of
new steel. The saving in new ste
ell alone would be enough to build
nearly 200 medium sized tanks.
The army's tentative require
ments for next year include 5000
900 pounds of snap beans, 10000
900 pounds of lima beans, 4,000,-
900 pounds of cut corn, 100000
pounds of green peas and nearly
100000 pounds of spinach.

to local tire dealers. The forms
used to make application for the
purchase of these tires are now
in the hands of the local War Price
and Rationing Boards according to
an announcement made today by
]. D. Wise, State Rationing Officer
Under the new mileage rationing
program which becomes effective
November %, all car owners will
be eligible for either a recap or
some type of Grade III tire. A
Grade III tire may be used usa-
bic, sued recappable, or a used
repairable tire. The new Victory
tires made entirely of reclaimed
rubber are now in production and
will, at a later date, be released
as Grade III tires.
Rationing of these tires is uart
of the governments plan to keep
the nations passenger cars rolling
for their essential mileage.

New Year S Eve
Patriotic Menu
BY MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX
NEA Service Staff Writer

Lots of fun and a toast to the
New Year-yes, certainly. But
let's begin with a full under
standing that General Eisen-
hower's forces in Africa need
great amounts of food. So do all
our scrapping allies. Therefore,
keep your party supper patri-
otto.
Use unrestricted foods. If ev-
cry household in the United
States said, We'll, we can
splurge a bit just for tonight"
there would be millions of
pounds less food for the boys
who are fighting for us. So let's
eat the American way on New
Years Eve.
Make the supper menu SUBJ
stantial, not fussy or over-deli-
cate. The crowd will want big
eats and little frills. Have a tray
of assorted cheeses-goOd crack
ers to 60 with them. Have a tray
of assorted non-restricted cold
cuts, such as liver sausage,
sliced tongue, liver loaf. A great
bowl of salad made of mixed
green's such as lettuce, romaine,
chickory, sliced celery leaves,
chopped green pepper, a little
onion, grated raw carrots, hard
cooked eggs, with French dress
ing, can be served in small
wooden bowls to everyone's de-
light.
Individual chicken or turkey
pies can be made easily and
quickly. Have lots of them and
keep them very hot. Here's a
recipe which uses left-overs.
Simply com bine cooked
chicken or turkey meat with
any leftover or cooked vege-
tables and mix with a good glib
let gravy. Add a can of con-
densed cream of mushroom or
celery soup diluted with 2-3 cup
water. Then turn this thrifty
and delicious mixture into small
baking dishes or individual cas-
seroles. Cover with biscuits
made from prepared biscuit
flour, or from your own less
rapid recipe. Bakes in very hot
oven (450 degrees F.) for Is
to ID minutes. Do not make your
full supply at once. Keep EN-
rolling.

MANY EX c Ell L E N T
HOUSEKEEPERS, who used to
feel pretty busy and important,
are worried these days as to
whether they are doing their
share in the war effort. With
women doing defense work in
factories and offices every
where, it's hard for Mrs. House
wife not to feel little guilty if
she concentrates on cooking and
child care.
That's defeatist fe e nj e,
however. Much as every bit of
our war work counts, officials
and educators everywhere feel
that a woman with small chill
dren owes her first duty to them.
Of course, many such women are
doing occasional work for va
rious defense organizations, but
even those who are on duty at
home twenty four hours day
can find a dozen small ways to
show their patriotism.
They can shop more carefully
than ever, putting away every
dime saved for war stamps and
bonds. The pleasant home at
mosphere can be shared by in
viting soldiers from a nearby
camp over for Sunday dinner.
And, right now, they can con-
tribute to the enjoyment of SOL
diers, sailors and marines ev-
erywhere by giving books to the
1913 Victory Book Campaign.
This second campaign to col
lect books for soldiers will be on
from January S to March S, dur
ing which time it is hoped to
llect millions of readable
books, in good physical condi-
ton, for distribution to our
fighting men. The American Lii
brary Association, the American
Red Cross and the United Serv-
ice Organizations are all behind
this drive to acquire more and
better" books during 1943. 1t is

1913 Victory Book Drive
TO 9 pen on January 5

not drive for old algebras and
dog cared Victorian move s;
rather it is a campaign to &C
cumulate plenty of interesting,
stimulating books of the kind
the givers themselves have en-
joyed.
A real family project could be
m d e of sorting the family
books and deciding which of
them to give. Every member of
the family could share in this
task in the real American way.
Dad and mother could pick
out some recent novels and nom
fiction best sellers that gave
them pleasure also some of Dad s
technical books. Brother Bill
might contribute some of the
western stories and adventure
tales which he liked and which
would also appeal to young SOL
diers. Maybe Sister Sue has
some mystery tales and short
story collections to add to the
pile. The point is that all will
help to sort out books that will
be good reading for service men.
The next day the small fry of
the family might help Mother to
take the books selected to the
nearest collection box. Su C h
book boxes are being placed in
local Libraries, stores, moving
picture theatres and other pub
lie places.
In Mount Clemens, donations
of books are to be left at the
public library.
Perhaps one family may have
a dozen books to give, the fam
lily in the next house only one
or two - but multiply these
families by millions of other
generous groups throughout the
nation, and it's easy to imagine
the millions of books that will
be collected for our fighting
men throughout the U n t d
States.
