Boys In Uniform
Enjoy U.S.O.'s
Hospitality

That boy next door who's in the
service - the fellow who worked
beside you in the shops until he
went with Uncle Sam-today are
sharing in the hospitality of the
USO.
And just by way of statistics,
4S new USO clubs have been
opened since April list, bringing
the total up to Ala in Continental
United States and Overseas. The
474th USO club was opened May
29th in downtown San Francisco
under direction of the Salvation
Army. Also since April l, twenty
six more USO units have been put
in operation aside from clubs
such as mobile service to troops
on duty at isolated posts, and for
troops-in-transit.
Nationally the USO has drive
in progress to raise 100000
In Seattle, no USO contributions
are being taken at this time. In
stead, the local quota for U S o
will be raised in a great united
War Chest campaign this fall,
when everyone will be ante-ing in
with one pledge for USO and Rus
sian War Relief Inc, for United
China Relief, and the War Prison
ers' Aid Fund, and the Community
Fund agencies and other approved
appeals. But meanwhile USO serv-
ices go on increasingly.

Home Insulation
Is Solution To
Winter Fuel Problem

Although the heating season is
nearly past, it is by no means too
early for home owners to begin
thinking about their next winters
fuel problem, says f. A. stopped
man, of the Residential Insulation
Inc.
THE most casual perusal of the
daily papers indicates tn a the
Government is seriously concerned
about the fuel problem, both from
the standpoint of transporting
fuel to parts of the country where
it is needed, and the conservation
of all types of fuel for the war
program" Mr.. Stoppelman said.
Naturally, the war effort comes
first, and both transportation and
fuel are important factors in that
effort. This means that the home
owner must prepare now for in
evitable curtailment of his usual
winter fuel supply.
ut is possible, however, to en-
Joy the same winter comfort to
which householders in this coun-
try have become accustomed even
with sharply curtailed fuel allot-
ments," Mr.. Stoppelman said. al
ready alf a million American
home owners have had their homes
insulated with Johns Manville rock
wool, and are saving up to third
on their fuel bills and at the same
time cutting substantially the
amount of fuel they need to heat
their homes
Mr.. Stoppelman went on to say
that there is no immediate pros
pect of a shortage of rock wool,
so that householders who insulate
now will assure themselves of win
ter comfort and fuel economy, as
well as enjoy the added benefit of
a cooler home during the summer.
He pointed out that convenient
terms could easily be arranged to
finance the insulation and that the
job itself was quick and clean, dis
turbing none of the homes occu-
pants.

Need Stenographers
Says u. S. Govt
Employment Service

The battle cry has extended
to the stenographic corps of the
nation. So, if your daughters
are looking for parts to play in
the war effort, there's a vital
role that typists and stenogra-
pliers can take.
Government war agencies need
office workers, and although
the Civil Service Commission is
hiring about 1000 stenographers
a week to work for the Federal
Government in Washington, the
supply is running short. Appi-
cations are now being taken in
Seattle by the Army Port of
EmbarkatiOn and Ordnance

LETTERS FROM HERALD
READERS
What's In A Name?

Editor The Dickinson Herald:
Recently there came to this
county man by the name of
Polakov to help the cause of la
Dor. Last week there appeared an
editorial in a county newspaper,
supposedly written by a self
appointed editor, condemning I'm
pronouncable names.
whats in a name? That which
we call rose, by any other
name would smell as sweet"
Had the name of a capitalist or
official of a corporation been I'M
pronouncable, no doubt this edi-
tor would have made every eff
fort to familiarize himself with
the pronunciation and never
mention it in an editorial. But
since the United Mine Workers
have members and officials with
names not so familiar in this sec
ton, and since these persons are
fighting for the cause of labor,
they are condemned by this
would be- champion of capital
lists. Some names have held a
fascination for the editor to
whom we have referred. "SOme
to the fascination of s name sur
render, judgment hoodwinked
Since this person wrote Of I'M
pronouncable names, he failed
to mention the name of labor's
greatest champion, Franklin D.;
Roosevelt, whose name is of
Dutch origin and mispronounced
by nine out of ten people. And
speaking of names Of people who
had difficult names to pronounce
but who helped America to be
great, we refer to Marquis de
Lafayette. Condemn also, dear
editor, the names Of these per-
sons who risked their lives and
fortunes for our republic: Van
Steuben, Pulaski and others. Why
not condemn the pronunciation Of
the meme of PaderWeski, found
er and first president of the Re-
public Of Poland?
Standing between America
and her dreaded enemies is a
great Russian soldier, limo
shenko, with an army of mil
lion unpronouncable names.
Why not condemn these I'M
pronouncab1e names-or names
which give us difficulty?
Frankly, the name Of Polakov
sounds as good to us as some
other names we have heard.

Navy Enlistments increasing
But Many More Men Needed

Lieutenant X. B. Emmons, Officer
in charge of Navy Recruiting for the
State of Maryland, announced today
that Navy enlistment interest is con-
tinuing to increase as evidenced by
the hundreds of requests now being
received for the new Navy Booklet
entitled, what Kind of Job Can |
Get in the Navy"
This % page illustrated booklet is
free to the public and shows how a
man may find his place in this war
and fight where he fits.
The Navy has place for young
men and older men too, stated Lieu
tenant Emmons, remarking that men
between the ages of II and so are
eligible for enlistment. Skilled men Of
all kinds are urgently needed to en-
list in the Navy-to help man our
rapidly expanding two-ocean fighting
fleet. The Lieutenant further stated
that men with trade experience may
receive Petty Officer ratings with in
creased pay at once, while the Navy
will train men that are unskilIed to
become a specialist in one of the 40
trades or vocations available.
Lieutenant Emmons suggests that
every man of military age find out
about the opportunities of Naval
Service and learn if he may serve. He
said there is no obligation and man
may fill out an application even TAX
ing the physical examination to de-
termine if he is eligible for the Navy,
and still not be obliged to enlist
The Lieutenant reminds men that
even though an Induction Notice
under Selective Service has been re-
ceived, a man may still volunteer
enlist in the Navy up to the time Of
his actual induction.

Mrs. Beulah Stevey
Recommended For
Parole BY Moser

State Parole Director Herman NJ
Moser, recommended to Governor
O'Conor on Tuesday the parole Of
Mrs. Beulah W. Stevey, twenty-three-
year-old Garrett county mother, serv-
ing two years in the Maryland Wom-
ans prison for manslaughter.
Mrs Stevey was convicted by the
Garrett County Circuit Court follow
ing the fatal shooting of her husband
on October %, 1871.
In recommending Mrs. Stevey and
five other prisoners for paroles, Moser
told O'Conor that he felt she had
"shot her husband in desperation after
living with him for nine years in ter
rible conditions" The parole investi-
cation disclosed that Mrs Stevey had
been BADLY mistreated and that coun-
ty officials were not opposed to her
release"
