County Continues
Until Sept. |,
Farm Families Are
Urged To Do Their
Port In Drive

The Holmes County Scrap Iron
Campaign started last Saturday will
be continued until September LIST.
With everyone collecting down to the
last pound we believe that the county
can be thoroughly canvassed in that
time. Leaders throughout the
ty have been set up for every 8 to
10 families so that every family can
be visited, and assisted in collecting
the last pound of scrap meal. At the
end of this Campaign each leader rs
being requested to send to the Coun-
ty Agents Office a report showing
how many families were contacted
and how many pounds of scrap metal
was collected.
Meetings have been held in all
communities of the county in the
last ten days where these leaders
have been instructed regarding their
duties and responsibilities. They are
accepting their responsibility which
is to help with the Scrap Iron Cam
paign practically 100 per cent and
these leaders are going out with their
sleeves rolled up determined to bring
in the last pound of scrap.

Retailers Warned
To Post Prices
OPA Says l73 In
Holmes County
Have Not

Out of a total of 335 retailers in
Holmes County 173 have not yet filed
statements of their ceiling prices on
cost of living commodities with the
local War Price and Rationing Board,
the State Office of OPA here de-
clared today.
The statements were due not later
than July /, but OPA has used the
weeks since that date as an unofficial
grace period in which to remind
delinquent retailers that their state
ments were overdue.
Now, however, the "grace period
has expired and every retailer whose
statement is overdue is being re-
minded directly by letter which sets
a time limit of five days after its
receipt.
No special form is required, ac-
cording to DR.. f. S. Wallace, State
Price Officer, but the statement must
show the name and complete adj
dress of the retailers at the top of
the first page, an adequate deserip-
ton of the commodity by name, code
number or style number, or any other
specific Identification, and the max
imun. price.
Each retailer also must have on
hand in his store, ready for examina-
ton by his customers or any other
interested person, a statement of the
highest price at which during March
he sold or offered for sale each ar
tiele in his store on which the reg
ulation places a ceiling.
Amy retailer who wilfully or de-
l~iberately violates the regulations
makes himself subject to severe civil
and criminal penalties.

Our Navy wants to protect it's men
and in order to do so all ships must
be adequately manned to insure the
safety and protection of all.
Men up to so years anddown to

{ aimed; physical requirements have
been modified; pay has been in.
creased with dependent allowance,
and those of draft age are permitted
to enlist up to date of induction.
The Nays expansion program is
now of much magnitude that there
probably is not an a~ble-bodied mar
between II and so who can't get il
if he goes to a recruiting office anc
