Catch on-that means two fronts. -
When the Kremlin dinner crowd
first sighted Mr.. Churchill in his
odd suit some one asked if that
was the kind worn by British para
chutists on Commando raids.
1T would serve for such a pur-
pose" a British officers answered
jocularly.
One of the more trying expert
ences the Prime Minister had to
undergo was in store for him at the
airport when the party was leaving
the Capital. A band played a num-
ber of national anthems, and got so
enthusiastic that several were played
twice. The Prime Minister and
others stood with barred heads in a
soft rain. But If it bothered, he let
nobody hear about it.
Mr. Churchill missed the famous
Russian ballet, although he had
been invited to see it.
He said he was too busy, remark
ing, Il never let pleasure interfere
with my movements"
The Prime Minister lunched sew
eral times at the British Embassy

Dacha. It is situated in a garden

Farmers in Indiana

MenthoI Market
Peppermint Oil Crop
This Year Valued
At So 900, 900

Wide World Features.
ELKHART, Ind-Farmers in the
mucklands of Northern Indiana and
Purdue University scientists at
Lafayette, Ind, are engaged in an
economic battle with the japanese
and they'll be content with
nothing less than an unconditional
surrender.
They're working to expand their
peppermint crop. from which men
thol Is obtained, among other valu-
able items, with an eye to taking
over" the menthol market from
Japan.
Seventy-f1ve per cent OF Amer
ican- produced peppermint is grown
in Northern Indiana and Southern
Michigan.
Crop Worth So, 3,O00, 900.
Annually American demands on
Japanese peppermint Oil have scared
to 100000 pounds. All the while
American growers have satisfied
themselves with production of pep
permint Oil but. with the war,
they've seen their chance and
they're out to seize it.
A 100000 crop of peppermint
oil will be harvested this year in
Northern Indiana, or about 100000
pounds from 10000 acres. Increased
acreages are planned for next year.
Fay C. Gaylord, in charge of
marketing and vegetables at Purdue
University, and other chemists at
the school are the brains" behind
this economic warfare.
The scientists hope to step up the
percentage of menthol content in
the Hoosier- grown peppermint and
to perfect methods of extracting
part of the content without lower
ing the grade or usefulness of the
mint oil.
Uses Are Varied.
Many valuable commercial prod
ucts require menthol, including
medical compounds, food flavorings
and shaving creams and lotions.
The scientists contend the farm
ers of Northern Indiana can run the
Japs out of the menthol business
permanently. However. the content
of menthol in the domestic pepper
mint oil must be stepped up from
so to IS per cent to meet the Japa-
nese menthol content value. The
trick in getting higher menthol
percentage is in letting the crop ma
ture Just a little longer.
This year many American firms
are still using menthol out of con-
tainers marked produced in Japan"
but next year, say the scientists,
menthol containers will be labeled
with Indiana stickers.

For Service Benefits
All Requests for Funds
Should Be Investigated,
OCD Committee Soys

A report that unrecognized agen-
cies are soliciting funds repeatedly
for entertainment OF servicemen
but actually, In some cases, for the
benefit of the solicitors. has led the
War Hospitality Committee OF the
local OCD to urge public co-opera-
ton in refusing to make donations
to unknown telephone solicitors.
Mrs. Sally Muchmore OF the Bet
ter Business Bureau, who made the
report. told the committee at least
Ave organizations were selling tick
cts for boat rides and dances for
benefit of servicemen" which some-
times were for the benefit of the
organization or It's solicitors.
She cited one case where solicita-
ton had begun in May for a boat
ride scheduled the latter part Of
August. The organization, she said,
has no written contract with the
promoter of the boat ride and "ac-
tually admits it will receive so per
cent OF the net take"
The money is admittedly to send
delegates of the organization to a
convention" she charged.
She said the organization is not
recognized by the national organiza-
ton to which it allegedly is aff1li-
ated.
1t would take some of the trans
ports now on duty in the Atlantic
to accommodate as many on a boat
ride as telephone inquiries indicate
are interested, she reported.
The committee resolved to urge
the public to cooperate by not
making donations to unknown in
dividuals who solicit over the tele-
phone and by investigating all re-
quests for funds through some such
recognized agency as the Better Bus
mess Bureau, the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association, the COM
mittee itself or others.
