Rationing Stamps
5 and s Are Good
For Months Sugar

War ration stamps numbers 5 anc
6 each will be valid for one-month
period instead of the two-week e
iod covered by the first four stamps
it was announced today by the local
raticning board.
No. 5 stamp accordingly will be
valid until July 25, while No. 6
will be valid from July 26 to Aug.
%. Each stamp will thus entitie
the consumer to two pounds of
sugar. This does not change the
weekly allowance of one-half pound
per person. but it does provide for
the purchase of a months supply
CT sugar at one time.
In Helena, Tom D. Caverly. state
rationing administrator, explained
that federal officials made the
change in an effort to put part of
the nations sugar supply on house
wives shelves rather than in over
crowded warehouses.

Demand for Brit.
Records Jumps in
Recorders Office

Rejecting increasing federal en-
ployment and entrance of many into
the armed services, the demand for
certified copies of birth certificates
in Valley county has been multiplied
many times, it was reported this
week at the office of H. r. Bjork-
lund, clerk and recorder.
For the six month period ending
June 80. the office has issued 537
such certificates, Mr.. Bjorklund
said. In comparison. records show
that no certificates were issued the
first six months of 1882 and only
seven the same period in 1887.
In addition to the certificates of
Valley county births, hundreds of
applications have come in for birth
records from other states and are
continuing to come in. Delayed
birth records are being made up
from old records such as voting reg
istration records, records of army
service, marriage certificates, rec
ords of school attendance and vari-
Gus others.
THE Importance of birth certifi-
in securing employment has
become more apparent since the be-
of the war and the appli-
cations have always been given
preference wherever possible and

WASHINGTON, June 27- wide
World-The "metals for war" sit
uation is acute, but if everyone CO.
operates energetically enough, il
may not become dangerous.
This is the opinion of men who
are devoting day and night to the
roundup of waste supplies of steel,
iron, copper. bronze, brass, alum
mum, lead, nickel, zinc, tin and
such like scrap.
About July Is, they intend tc
call in supplies that have accumu
lated in the junkyards and on the
farms and in homes since the gov
ernment's request last Decembet
for everything that would make a
ship, plane, tank or gun. They
await only the end of the present
rubber salvage campaign to turn
over organization, transportation
and other facilities for an equally
intense movement of metals to the

Lessing J. Rosenwald, WPB's

placing emphasis on collection ol

man and for his money the infan-
try still is the best outfit in uni
form.
The general has the permanent
rank of a lieutenant colonel, but
some folks in the War department
believe he will be commissioned
lieutenant general or full general
if he is chosen to lead the Allied
second 'front.' so desperately de-
manded by the Russians.
He was General Douglas MacAr-
thurs right hand man in Wash
ington when the latter was Army
chief of staff. From 1885 to 1910
Macarthur had him in the Philip
pines as assistant military advisor
to the Commonwealth government.
He is credited with having had a
prominent part in planning the de.
fense of Bataan and Corregidor.
When he returned from Manila
he served successfully with the
Fifteenth Infantry at Fort Lewis,
Washington, as chief of staff for
the Third Division and then chief
of staff for the Ninth Army. He
was chief of staff of the Third
Army before coming back to Wash
| ington.
Eisenhower was named chief of
the War plans division, War de-
partment general staff, in Febru-
ary, 1912, and in April of the same
| CT or 1Nf ~
staff in charge of the operations
division.
He received the Distinguished
Service Medal as commanding Of
ficer of the Tank Corps training
center at Camp Colt, Gettysburg,
Pa, in 1918 for marked admins
trative ability in the organization,
training and preparation for over
seas duty of technical troops of the
tank corps"
Eisenhower took top honors in
the Army's command and general
staff school, the War college and
the Army Industrial college. His
first task in London will be to
establish full collaboration between
the American and British forces.
You may get an idea of just how
good he is in the fact that when
he was only % he became a lieu
tenant colonel just before the Ar
mistice ended the former unpleas-
antneSS abroad.
The general is considered an ex-
pert at logistics, which is the busi-
ness of Transporting troops and
supplies. There is no official indi-
cation here that his presence in
London indicates the imminent
opening of a second front but if
there is one eventually those who
know him well say that Eisenhower
is a cinch to see to it that Ameri-
can armed forces invade the Con-
tinent in sufficient numbers and
with enough material to stay put
until the job is done.
