A dssp-dish helmet replaces
the doughboY's tin basin Of
World War I. It's some lid

Did you notice something odd about the
soldier on the cover? ep- the hat! 1t s the
new "deep-dish" helmet now being issued to
the boys. And its the last word in headgear.
1t was voted best of all the types the Army
considered - and then it passed a month
long trial workout at Fort Benning with fly
ing colors. That was last May. Now the hel-
NETS are already in use by several divisions,
and the rest of the combat troops will receive
them soon.
Better balanced than the old basin type,
the new style affords more protection to the
neck and sides of the head doesn't fly off when
man throws himself prone in action. The
steel will withstand the impact of spent rifle
or machine-gun bullets, most shrapnel balls.
splinters. ETC., which ran head wounds up to
IL per cent of the total casualties in the last
war
A unique feature of the 1912 model lid
is the fiber lining which can be worn sep
arately and will replace the present fatigue
or field hat. Ear muffs will also be pro-
vided for cold-weather wear.
The Armored Force headgear shown is also
new and is modelled after the familiar football
helmet. However, the tank headguard is of
steel covered with leather, and is padded in
side with sponge rubber. The side FLAPS, which
can be strapped over the crown when not in
use, are large enough to accommodate ear
phones.
The new bonnets may look strange for a
while - but no stranger than yours, lady!

AIRCRAFT OBSERVA-
TON TOWER
RELOCATED

The Aircraft Warning Observa-
ton Post Of this town has relocated
it's observation tower. The old
tower, erected some weeks ago on
"Tick Ridge, about two and half
miles north of town, has been
abandoned and new tower erected
on the school grounds here. Trans
portation had to be arranged for so
many of the observers to and from
the old tower, that it was thought
advisable to make the relocation,
within a short distance of the CEN
ter of town.
The new tower is ten by ten feet
square, two stories, with 36-inch
cat-walk all around, extending out
from the second floor, the roof pro-
jecting out over the walk as a pro-
lection from the weather.
The tower is manned continuous
ly, "a hours a day, by two observ-
ers ON each three-hour trick. The
new structure cost approximately
5000, and will be paid for by volun-
tary contributions.
The recent card party held in the
High School building by the Post
netted about $50, and the members
of the organization wish to thank
all who were instrumental in max
ing the affair such a success.

Tax Payers
Visit Washington

Taxpayers from all over the State
formed Victory First Delegation
to go to Washington on May 5th to
tell Maryland's two Senators and six
Representatives in Congress face to
face that victory and the welfare of
the Nation and every person in it
requires that Congress eliminate ev-
cry dollar of non essential Federal
spending and use the savings thus
made to buy guns, planes, tanks and
ships for our men fighting the Axis.
The occasion of the meeting was
the presentation of a statewide
petition. Key citizens in every coun-
ty and in every section Of Balti-
more circulated a petition headed
Victory First-Billions for De-
Tense, Not One Cent For Waste.
The petition was presented to the
Senators and Representatives ON
Tuesday at 1880 p. m. in the Caucus
Room of the Senate ONCE Building
In Washington. Senator Willard q.
Tydings arranged that Maryiand's
Congressional delegation assemble
to receive the taxpayers and hear
their recommendations.

ial train from Baltimore for the ac-
commodation Of the big delegation.
