UP AND DOWN Parish STREET
By PERCY GREENE

Parish Street Saturday Night:
Up at the meeting of the Kinds
County War Savings Staff where
/ was the other day along with
Earl Banks, leading white bust
ness man and farmer from down
around Edwards, said that the
banks where having to pay out
some $500 per day at times to
meet the demands of Negro farm
ers who were cashing their cotton
"hecks, and evidently taking the
money home. and as most of us
there decided, hiding it In tin cans
Under the house hiding it on their
nersons In nation sacks" and
hurying it in peculiar places off
some where In the woods. What
caused that, seems to be, that some
hodv has been talking about that
Uncle Sam was about to get broke,
md was going to soon come around
md take all the money out Of the
banks, the post office. and every
other place he could find it, and
Fc'ks who wanted to have some
money when it happened had bet
er not let any be where Uncle Sam
could locate it. WE'LL WHEN
UNCLE SAM GETS BROKE
THERE WON'T BE ANY NEED
TO DIG UP ANY MONEY THAT
YOU HAVE HIDDEN AROUND
BECAUSE BY THEN FOLKS
WILL BE EATING ONE AN
0THER UP AND NOBODY WANT
NEED ANY MONEY. The thing
FOR everybody to do who are maxi
ing any money now is to put some
Of it in War Bonds, and whatever
YOU do have to spend right now
should be rut in the bank. AND I
DON'T KNOW NO WORDS BIG
THOUGH TO DESCRIBE THE
r1IND OF LIER THAT'S TELLING
FOLKS ABOUT UNCLE SAM
COMING AROUND TAKING
EOLKS MONEY. AND PEOPLE
BIG ENOUGH FOOLS TO BE-
LIEvE SUCH THINGS
Enow you don't-so go buy some
War Bonds and put the rest of
your money in the bank when you
sell your cotton.

Packers Defeat
College Park
For Second Win

The boys came home! The young
Packers bounced right back after
last weeks massacre to win this,
their homecoming by a 12-to-6
score for the second win in three
tries. A large Braden Field crowd
was on hand to cheer the Maroon
and Gold on to their close victory.
All three touchdowns were neat
ly made. The Packers counted first
after a long march when Danny
Jones raced around right end for a
tally in the first period.
Visitors in the Air
College Park tied the count in
the third quarter on a beautiful
pass play, Sonny Mothershead to
Halfback Wick that ate up all of
the necessary 35 yards.
The game seemed destined for a
deadlock ending but one of the
smallest players, Dickie Palmer
subbing for Donnie Brewer, inter-
cepted a Mothershead aerial and
almost got away for a score.
18th Man Nails Palmer
The little southpaw had a clear
field ahead and then had the mis-
fortune to run into head linesman,
Dale Jernberg. That little slow
up was all the College Parkers
needed to force Palmer out of
bounds. His jaunt took the ball
from the 35-yard line to the and
first down.
Three lunges into the Parkers
line netted 5 yards loss for the
Packers. On a last try Danny
Jones scampered across for the
winning margin in the last minute
and half of play. 1t was on this
play that bones were cracked.
Hess and Mothershead, coming
from opposite directions to smear
Jones, miscalculated on the
husky Packer stars agility and
crashed head-on. The Hess bow
got broken nose and Sonny
Motherhood was badly shaken up
and was thought to have a frac-
tured rib.
There have been no goal posts
erected at Braden Field as yet
and all attempts at converting
were rushes, stopped on the short
side of glory

mite part Of the equation. While
a man may have won his wings
and have had many hundreds OF
hours in the air he is not neces-
sarily a good fighting pilot or
bombardier. We hear about so
many aviators who have brought
down one or several enemy
planes, but their number, in re-
lation to the number OF pilots
actually in action, is relatively
small. It takes long experience
in actual combat before an avia-
tor can show his mettle.
The Nazi air offensives against
the British Isles in 1910 and 1941
are said to have been suspended
not so much because OF the losses
in planes as because Of losses in
flyers. Reichsmarshal Hermann
Goering had to ask Hitler to put
a stop to that massacre of Ger
many'S best aviatorS.
Space Is a Problem.
Today Nazi flyers protecting
the western front are reported
to have been ordered never to
give battle except with superior
ity in numbers. The same thing
applies to Japanese flyers, the
best of whom have been killed
since the Coral Sea battle.
This problem Of replacing the

to believe he is preparing to
weaken his position there by a
heavy withdrawal of airpower for
other and even more pressing
purposes.
His peculiar statement broad
cast by a spokesman obviously
was calculated to prepare the
German public for a slowing
down of the attack on Stalin-
grad and perhaps disappointment
at the failure to capture this
amazing colossus. Probably it
also was intended to soften the
disclosure of the extent of the
huge German losses.
However, it is doubtful that
Hitler would thus tacitly admit
the blows he has been taking
were it not for the necessity of
making a quick shift in his plans.
The only logical move of real
magnitude would appear to in
volve his air force, the major part
of which he has been employing
in the bloodiest and biggest siege
of history.
My reasons for believing this
represents his purpose are: One
The devasting, Anglo American
bombing raids against Nazi war
industries and transport systems
in Western Europe are hitting
the Reich in a vital spot and
hurting like the devil.
Lille Raid Is Illustration.
We have a fine illustration of
this in yesterdays raid against
the French industrial city of Lille
by 100 of our great bombers, sup
ported by a fleet of 500 British
fighter planes.
The time has arrived when
Hitler must try to halt these as
saults and that would necessi-
tate the withdrawal of warplanes
from the Russian front.
2. The Nazi all-highest has been
displaying jangling nerves over
the fear of an Allied attack some
where in Western Europe.
He has been hastily strengthen
ing his ground forces here, there
and everywhere and he undoubt-
edly feels the necessity of repair
ing his now comparatively weak
air defenses.
3. Because Hitler has been so
engaged on the Russian front

French Resist Pleas, Threats

Nozi Tactics Reported Driving Divided,

have been promised excellent living
conditions and special considerations
for the dear ones" left behind. Now,
however, there is an undercurrent
of menace to the requests" which
Laval Is transmitting to his people
the suggestion that continued re-
slstance will bring upon the French
the state of serfdom which has been
imposed upon the Poles, the Czechs
and other subjugated nations.
In spite of the tempting offers
and the scarcely yelled threats,
French workers still resist trans
portation into Germany. Factory
owners are not so obdurate about
yielding their equipment since they
have been offered substantial COM
pensation for compliance. The men
who handle the machines, however,
are still sulking and seem to prefer
anything rather than to abandon
their own soil.
Reports coming in from France
indicate that curious sort of unity
now exists among the formerly di-
vided and quarreling French citizens.
The French masses are drawing
closer together under the Nazi yoke,
but they are also becoming intensely
distrustful of all promises and
pledges from all quarters. They dis
trust the Laval government. They,
OF course, distrust the Nazis, and
tf1re is a certain amount of skep-
ticism toward Allied promises.
1t is this latter distrust that Laval
is trying to exploit in order to force
Frenchmen to work for Nazi Ger
many.

ablest pilots and bombardiers is
at least as important to the air
command as the production OF
machines. In fact, In most fight
ing circles the difficulty OF pro-
duction is exceeded only by the
difficulty OF replacing experienced
fighting pilots.
Another problem involved in
the use of Britain as the chief
Allied airdrome is that OF space.
Take-off and landing facilities
there are limited. Only certain
fields are large enough for the
heavy types of bombers required
for flights over the Reich.
Considering all these factors,
most competent sources believe
it is sheer wishful thinking to
conclude that it is possible to
defeat the Reich by razing its
cities.

belligerents is in a position to
launch them.
Despite official statements that
a thousand planes took part in
several spectacular raids against
Germany last summer, 1t appears
that the number was exaggerated
and the figure was below 1000.
It is admitted officially that in
any such raids, even If the
enemy's fighter resistance is be-
low expectations, the minimum
loss would be about 10 per cent.
This means 100 planes a night
and total replacement Of the
original attacking feet within 10
days.
Can't Afford Such a Loss.
Despite the damage inflicted on
German and German-controlled
industrial centers the Nazis have
plenty of fighters for protection
and the loss of thousand planes
in 10 days might cripple us and
the British-particularly the lat
ter-for while. American and
British factories do not yet pro-
duce enough planes to justify
such a loss. What the situation
will be next year is hard to tell.
There is another difficulty.
Pilots and bombardiers, the most
important men in aerial opera
tions, cannot be produced in as
sembly lines.
The human element is a def
