Small Business Holding Key
To Greater War Bond Sales

Small business concerns, employing
from three or four persons up to $50
or even more, can swell war bond
sales by tens of millions of dollars a
month through payroll deduction
plans, James Twohy, governor of the
federal home loan bank system, de-
clares.
1.-The owners and officials of such
concerns are. of course, buying war
bonds as heavily as anyone else, and
many of their employees have contrib
uted individually" said Twohy. But
they haven't been placed on a regular
schedule and that kind of a schedule
has proven the most productive of
real results"
Twohy called on the $500 member
institutions for which the bank sys-
tenn provides a credit reserve-chiefly
savings and loan associations and
similar thrift and home-financing in
stitutions-to expand their efforts to
include all small business concerns.
Asserting that such institutions are
more closely in touch with small firms
than most other organizations, he
cited an incident in a western city:
Despite the general belief that al
most everyone now is being reached
by the war bond drive, officials of
savings and loan association decided
to send out test letter to all of its
investors. The association got scores
of war bond sales as result, but the
most interesting development was fur
nished by the head of small indus
trial concern who walked in and laid
down orders for s25 bonds subscribed
by his $50 employees, and asked the
association if it would help start a
regular payroll deduction plan.
Needless to say, the association
obliged. And there is great deal
more evidence to show that the cam
paign to reach small business has
only just begun. The big industrial
plants are already working payroll de-
duction plans; many large employers
are issuing agents themselves. But
there are thousands of small business
concerns S or 10 or even 100 en-
ployes-which could build up payroll
deduction plans totaling tens of mil
lions of dollars each month, If they
are only helped to organize.
II know that savings and loan as
sociations, located in practically every
urban community in the country, will
be glad to offer their services to these
small concerns"
Twohy said that the IL regional
banks of the federal home loan bank
system have been conducting inten-
sive campaigns for the past several
months. Field men have been sent out
as the special representatives of each
Of the bank presidents to supplement
the work of state, county and COM
munity war bond committees and to
find the means by which thrift in
situations can be Of the most service
in this campaign"

CHEESE FOR
EVERYONE

We urge American consumers TO eat
more cheese" states Secretary of Agri-
culture Claude r. Wickard. TT is a
rich source of food elements that are
vital to good health" Furthermore in
creased consumption of cheese will en-
courage production which is essential
right now to keep up needed food sup
plies. according to Secretary Wickard
With nearly ITO million pounds more
cheese in storage than the average for
this season of the year, it IS pointed
out that every man, woman and child
in the United States could eat an ex-
ira pound of cheese and still have a
lot more cheese on hand than Is nor
NAL for this season of the year. Fur
thermore, cheese production is far in
excess of any previous time. During
the first five months this year more
than 387 million pounds of Cheddar
cheese manufactured during the same
period last year and with an average
production of 176 million pounds dur
ing those five months in the past ten
years.
Since cheese contains practically all
of the ingredients of milk, it Is recog-
nized as one of the most important of
all protective foods. Secretary Wickard
gives added emphasis to the import
ant part cheese plays in improving nu-
triton and national health today with
this additional statement 1t is of great
Importance that present high produc-
ton be maintained to meet wartime
needs both at home and abroad. We
may need even more before long. We
must keep right on making cheese
without any let-up. BY using more
cheese we can tighten the load on meat
supplies which will be short for the
next couple of months"

MOVES TO BOOST
DEFENSE BOND
SALES IN STATE

The State OF Maryland will init
late promptly system whereby
State employees will be encouraged
to the fullest extent to purchase
United States Defense Bonds and
Stamps.
Under the plan to which oGver-
nor O'Conor has given his approval
an employee will be designated in
each State Department and
agency to promote the sale of
bonds and stamps and to handle
all collection, purchases and de-
livery Of the stamps or bonds for
the convenience ot the other EN-
ployees.
I'm view Of the urgent need for
the participation of everyone Of
cur citizens in defense activities
Of some kind" Governor O'Conor
declared, many Of our State en-
plOyees, as we'll as OF our civilian
population generally, who are not
physically or otherwise available
for active civilian defense or mill
tary service, now have the Oppor-
tunity to assist in the financing of
the huge war operations necessary
by buying United States defense
bonds and stamps.
1T must be borne in mind. how
ever, very definitely that this is
not the Christmas Fund type of
saving by which few donars for
which we may have no immediate
need, is put into bonds. When our
soldiers and sailors are giving up
occupations of lifetime, and may
have already made the supreme
sacrifice, it isn't asking too much
of State employees. or Of any
American citizen, that they do
without luxuries, and even some
necessities, in order that they may
make generous purchases of bonds
towards the financing of our war
activities.
Il sincerely trust that the com
bined purchases of the employees
of the State Of Maryland will
mount to total figure that will in
dicate in the clearest manner the
loyalty Of our State employees and
their determination to contribute
everything in their power towards
winning the War"

TRUCK GROWERS ARE
URGED TO GET THEIR
EQUIPMENT READY

Best defense against insects at
tacking truck crops is a well-timed
offense, according to DR.. E. N
Cory, State Entomologist for
Maryland, He urges Maryland
truck crop growers to order repair
parts for busting and spraying
rigs now so as to have equipment
ready for effective service in the
spring. The government has
given high preference rating to
manufacturers of farm machinery
repair parts, but only enough of
these parts are being produced to
meet growers needs, as indicated
by their orders. These orders
must be placed as soon as possible
to insure adequate production and
timely delivery. Growers do not
need preference rating certificates
to place orders for parts or ma
chinery
Dr. Cory says that now is the
time to check over every piece Of
machinery that will be needed to
prepare the soil, plant, cultivate,
spray, dust, and harvest the 1912
vegetable crops. 1t is particularly
important to test pumps for pres
sure leaks and to clean last sea-
sons insecticides out of pipes and
nOZzles, if they have not already
been cleaned.
Insecticidal residues gum up
and cOrrOde equipment, and ferti-
lizerS left in distributors are like
ly to clog and cause corr0sion.
Machinery should be stored un-
der cover and all moving parts,
cutting edges. and soil securing
surfaces kept covered with oil or
grease. Tires on rubber-tired inn
plements can be made to last long
er if the implements are blocked
up in storage to keep weight off
the tires, and if stored on a cinder
floor, it is particularly important
to keep them blocked up because
sulfur in the cinders deteriorates
the rubber.

CroutOns are always good in
creamed soups, but not too many.
Perhaps three or four tiny crout-
ons would look very tempting
floating in a cup of soup, but if
you put in twenty and filled the
cup, the effect would be spoiled
Just a speak of whipped cream and
few dashes of paprika make a

However, the joke on Mr.. Lee

Down Charles county way in
the vicinity Of La Plata, Indian
Head and Waldorf, a small pres
sure group has protested to the
State Roads Commission, to Con-
gresSman Sasscer and finally to
Governor O'COnor against the con-
StructiOn of a new milliOn-dollar
road at government expense. The
road would follow a bee-line route
from Capitol street in Washington
TO the new Morgantown bridge
over the Potomac.
The pressure group made some
slight impression on Sasscer but
none whatsoever on Chairman
Ezra Whitman of the Roads Com
mission or on his boss, the Cover
nor. They merely advised the
group that the proposed road was
a defense matter urgently request
ed by the Navy Department to pro-
vide a quick. direct route to Dahl
gren, Va. and there was nothing
they could do about it, What
Whitman and O'Conor did not tell
them was that President Roose-
welt himself had personally insist
ed that this job be undertaken as
soon as possible. Roosevelt had
even fOreseen the need for such a
defense route at the time he es-
poused the Morgantown bridge in
the Tydings-Lewis campaign.
The Charles County group, COM
prised Of business property owners
at certain points not to be served
directly by the new southern route,
want the money spent to resurface
and widen the old rambling and
tortuous No. highway They
also want to build a special spur
over to Indian Head. However, it
is quite possible that a special per-
pendicular new highway will be
built over to this point from the
proposed road because Of the pow
der plant tnere.
The pressure group is headed by
State Senator Joseph Wilmer of
La Plata and includes the follow
ing: James Monroe who runs a
bar at Waldorf; John T. Parran Of
Indian Head; Paul d. Brown
county agent at La Plata; James
w. Willis of La Plata who runs
gasoline and bus terminal at T. B.;
Harry Moreland who owns a re-
pair shop at Waldorf; James P.
Ryon, Waldorf storekeeper; Leon
ard Dyer OF Accokeeke, president
of the Board of County Commission
ers of Prince Georges, and Sidney
Lust of Washington who owns
movie theatre at Waldorf.
The particular link in the new
route to which they object is from
La Plata to Piscataway, distance
of some IL miles. With this link
