of plans for local observance
Paying tribute to persons who
either by age or naturalization
have become citizens during the
past year, Governor Bricker de-
clared 1--WE as a united people
have dedicated ourselves to the
preservation of the American
way of life in a world kindled by
war;"
1t is the purpose of the pro-
gram to emphasize the blessings
and privilege of living in coun-
try where freedom of activity is
basic principle in fact as we'll
as in theory.
"First voters" in particular
will be paid attention to in the
program stressing the fact that
America is the last citadel of
Democratic religious and politi-
cal freedom.
A program with two addresses,
one stressing religious freedom
and one political freedom, will be

Keep Pitching

, In spite of war and gov
ernment restrictions there
is one employe organiza-
ton in Newark that keeps
pitching-and doing a right
good job of it too. 1t just
seems natural that they
make a success of anything
they set out to do. We are
talking about the F'iberglas
club of the Owens-Corning
corporation.
In 1910 and 1941 they
jammed the Auditorium
theater two nights in a row
and staged the most sue
cessful home talent shows in
the history of Newark.
Each year the club has a
bang-up celebration and
picnic with plenty of enter
tainment for not only their
members, but their families
and kiddies.
Just last week this enter
prising group brought Greg
or Ziemer to Newark and
jammed the First Methodist
church to the choir loft, and
sold their tickets to men,
bers and guests at the small
cost of 10 cents each, thus
giving everyone of their
group an opportunity to
hear the famous WLW COM
mentator, if they so desired.
1t takes foresight and CO.
operation to do those things
and leadership.

Hite Urges
Merchants To
Heed Regulations

Thomas f. Hite, manager of
The Newark Merchants Credit
Association, Monday night urged
70 local merchants meeting in
the Ohio Power building, '"to
get their houses in order, collec-
tion-wise," with regard to the
new credit regulations which went
into effect May 6.
Hite said to the assembled
merchants that unless they take
steps to bring their delinquent
accounts up-to-date, purchasing
power of their accounts may be
imperiled."
Under the new regulations mer-
chants will be prohibited by the
government to sell to those pur-
chasers who have allowed their
accounts to go unpaid. All pur-
chases on open charge accounts
must be paid by the 10th of the
second month after the purchase
has been made, it was explained.
Hite urged all merchants to
cooperate with the local credit
association and use it as "clear-
ing house or center control point, -
in the handling of accounts un-
der the new regulations.
Merchants attending were very
much interested in the new regu-
lations, from the standpoint of
good business policy, said Mr..
Hite.
Merchants in Canada have ex-
perienced excellent results under
similar credit regulatory meas
ures.

Good Will Week

. When asked recently about
his ideas on the war Joe
1Louis, the worlds prize-ring
champion, made a statement
which has been given ma
tional publicity = a full
page being devoted to it in
the May 16 issue Of Golfers
magazine. Joe said, "We
are fighting on Gods side.
He did not say, "God is on
our side," as the phrase is
usually put.
Only through cooperative
effort of all of us can this
war be won; only through
keeping fit can the nation
be strong, and only by par
ticipating in the proper rec
reation-the American kind,
can the morale of our citi-
zens be kept at top form.
This war is being fought
to achieve freedom from
tyranny and oppression
and who is there that can
say that we are not, in the
words of Joe Louis, Eight
ing on Gods side"
Joe's statement no doubt
was inbred into his soul
a spontaneous exclamation
rooted deep in the hearts
of his fOrebears who felt
during the days of the Civil
War that in the fight for
freedom from slavery they
were fighting on Gods side.
But it took a man whose
forebears knew the meaning
of oppression to properly
express that fact. The dis
unity of the American peo-
pie was eliminated in that
war. This war can only be
won by good will among
ourselves and by "Work,
Health, and Play the Amer
lean Way"

MISCELLANEOUS
Superintendent Edwards read
a communication from the New
ark Stove company asking that
the school vocational department
work out system of cooperation
where reamers and form tools
could be manufactured in the
school machine shop for use at
the factory. The company stat
ed that they are badly in need
of tools in the manufacture of
shell castings and that further
manufacturing machinery is on
order which will necessitate
many additional tools. 1t was
suggested that training can be
given by actual production of
material necessary. The Stove
company would furnish all steel
and whatever additional super
vision required.
The Newark advisory commit
tee consisting Of representatives
/ Of industry and labor have al
ready approved the proposition,
! inasmuch as there is such a
shortage of tools being used in
war production that orders are
| from Is to IS weeks behind
schedule.
The board was in sympathy
with the move and as quickly
as approval can be secured from
the state vocational headquart-
ers, the machine shops will start
manufacture of form tools. The
NYA shop division can only
manufacture products for the
army or navy ordnance, not for
private industry, stated Mr.. Ed.
