How Can This
Continue?

Raleigh, May l6.-More prisoners
are ~recaptured each year, and re
turned to North Carolina prison
camps, than escape. according 10
Prison Director Oscar Pitts.
Pitts reported 40 escapes during
April and AZ recaptures for the same
month. So far he is two behind on
his recaptures for his yearly total but
If things go as usual, he expects
to make up the deficit. For proof.
Pitts points to past records. At the
end Of the fiscal year l94l, the prison
department reported 258 escapes and
285 recaptures. In 1910, it was 29S
escapes and 317 recaptures. To date
in 1912, it is 216 escapes and ZIG re-
captures which gives until June 30
TO make the recoveries.

All Citizens Urged 70 Buy
War Bonds Frequently

Stating that "it is now the obli-
cation of every citizen to be part
of Americas all out war effort" the
District War Savings Committee to-
day issued policy statement urging
each citizen to invest in war savings
regularly and frequently.
Declaring that "the response Of
many of our citizens has been wholly
inadequate" the committee added
the grim warning that the sale Of
war bonds must be stepped up ma
terially if we are to avoid another
case Of too little and too late" It
contended that it was un-American
to ask men to risk their lives in the
armed services unless those at home
are willing to make real sacrifices.
The committee pointed out that
the Government was seeking funds
by voluntary methods, and pre-
dicted that IF we do not respond
sufficiently the necessary monies
will be had through legislation. {"
