News From the
Food For Victory Front

We've changed the title of oul
column in recognition of the contri-
button farm laborers are making to
Americas war effort. Men, women
and children are going out daily
from this camp to harvest food
grown by Kennewick's farmers to
feed our army.
Former residents Of camp are re-
turning from the walla Walla dis
trict pea harvest. Among those COM
ing in this week were Edward Lee,
Bert Bailey, John johnson, B. Man
CHAN and Jack MCGEE. However,
their coming was more than offset
by the moving of the Rogers family
and others. Camp population at
press time stands at AZ persons.
A sanitation inspection was made
Monday by the Sanitarian from the
Walla Walla health department, CO.
operating with the Benton-Frank-
lin county health unit. The sani-
tary condition of camp was pro-
nounced entirely satisfactory. Since
sanitation ranks high on the list
of detectives of a Farm Security
Camp program, this was good news
to the management, who have been
battling the high water table at the
camp site.
Workers have gone out from camp
this past week to harvest crops in
the Benton City vicinity as well as
Council, indicating the extent of the
area the camp is able to serve.
Transportation has been something
of a problem since very few camp
residents have cars of their own. In
most instances, the farmers are fuTn-
ishing daily transportation.
George johnson jr. returned to
camp wednesday after a few days
visit with his wife's parents in We
natchee. Mrs. johnson stayed on
for a few additional days. He re-
ported a shortage of labor in the We
natchee orchards.
Agricultural employers are asked
to note the hours of the camp en-
ployment office. Floyd Kendall of
Pasco operating the office, will be
available from 6 to III am. and from |
8 to 6 pm. The employment office
telephone number is 1852. -
Anyone interested in the camp |
program is invited to visit during the
office hours of 8 am. to 6 pm. and
from 2 to 9 in the evening. Please
register at the office and a member
Of the camp personnel will be glad
to show you around.

Rear Tires Best

The best tires should be on the
rear wheels of the automobile, ac-
cording to L. G. Evans, general
service manager of the National
Automobile club. Many motorists
cling to the reverse opinion which
was universal some years ago.
Authorities are defending their
statement with the argument that
in the event of front wheel blow
out, the driver has control through
the steering wheel. Over the rear
end of the car, almost bound to be
swung out of line by the action of
the differential, he has no such con-
troll.

Sonifotion Problem

Because of its isolated and strategic location, Alaska is part icularlv susceptible to attack and sabotage. This fact, together with emergency concentrations of large bodies of men, presents to the people of Alaska new san ltation problems. In order that methods, plans and procedures for civilian defense sanitation may be developed prior to any untoward circumstances, it is incumbent upon the local health officer, nurse and city official to begin work immediately
 The Territorial Departmental of Health is willing and able to ad- wise, but due to transportation difficulties active participation in the formulation of civilian de- fense plans is precluded; it is, therefore, a strictly local re- sponsibility to see that every thing possible is prepared for an emergency. Aggressive leadership and a devoted attention to de tails is highly important A divid- ed responsibility and "buck pas sing" will not produce results. The health officer, because of his legal authority, is the logical head for Civilian Defense Sanita- tion activities Each person in the community should cheerfully perform his appointed task, lend support to the health officer and insist that suitable plans are made and carried out
 Provision should be made for the collection ofsrefuse from re- fugees and transients. In case of actual attack the burning of rub b'sh will probably be stopped by military authorities, so a sitel where garbage may be dumped and covered should be selected. SalVdge of useful materials may be indicated Rodent control sur rounding garbage dumps may prevent the spread of typhus fever.
