House Canvass.

Launching an intensified campaign
Friday of this week for the sale
of war bonds and stamps, Henry

for every state and county in the

The treasurer has requested house

for some amount of stamps and bonds,
these to be taken monthly, according
to income, no amount to be so high
it will be hardship on anyone, and
when you get the bonds you will
have the best and safest bond OF
any country in the world today, some
thing that you can fall back on as a
cushion when we win the war and
get back to normal.
No Compensation.
"a canvass will be made in the near
future by someone from your village
or township and when you are asked
please do not be to hard on the one
who approaches you, for he is doing
it without compensation of any kind
'Pine county has never gone back
on anything like this yet. We have
always made our quota and now il

canvass will be made within the
next two or three weeks. 1t is ur
to you now"

they could do under, international
law-they interned the Americans,
with evident full Washington ap-
proval.
Japan's axis partners in Europe are
not doing so very well, and there is,
as far as one can judge at this dis
tance, rather clear case of nazi
nervousness to be observed.
That much-heralded German
counter offensive ainst the
Russians has not yet started;
wherever it is being spOradically
attempted, it is being beaten back,
and it does look as though Hitler
has lost that immense advantage
of initiative which, in the be-
ginning, carried him on from
position to position.
That's really one of the general
symptoms of the nazi weakness: The
axis is much weaker than, for in
stance, a year ago; the United Ma
tions have, in the meantime, gath
cred new strength, tremendous
strength, and are adding to it each
hour day and night. 1t would seem
to be now matter of plain mathe-
matical calculation, and there may
be something to what Lord Beaver
brook said in New York a few days
ago, that, most likely, the turning
point of the whole war would be
reached this year, and that it would
be reached in Russia, especially.
Offensive.
Stronger and stronger grows the
opinion that the United Nations are
about to start their general offensive
against the axis groups on the Euro
pean front, perhaps not Immediately.
but quite soon.
1t is likely to start at the mo-
ment when London and Washing
ton realize that Hitler is unable
to carry on, at the same time, a
war in Russia and war on the
west front.

Will
Complete Sugar
Cards Next Week
Over One Million School
Teachers to Assist in Reg
istratiOn Work.

Reproduced on the bottom of this
page is an official copy of the appli-
cation form which northwest house.
wives will complete when register
ing for sugar rationing May 4, 5, 6
or T. They are urged to study the
form carefully, a good plan being
to fill out the reproduction and take
it along to their nearest school in
order to aid the registrars in filling
out the rationing card more rapidly.
Four Minutes to Card.
The Office of Price Administration
estimates that it will take only four
minutes to fill out each card if the
applicant has the answers ready.
Thousands of school teachers will
serve as registrars in the northwest
states-a million and quarter
throughout the nation. The usual
hours are from to p. m. and from
to p. m. May 4, S, 6, or Z.
Here are few important pointers
about registering:
l. A separate application must be
made for every person for whom a
ration book is issued, but only one
member of each family unit is to
appear at the nearest elementary
school to apply for all members of
the family.
2. A family unit" has been de-
fined as ''a group of two or more in
dividuals who are living together in
the same household who are related
by blood or marriage"
Extras" Must Register.
3. This means that all other per-
sons in the Observation-Disclosures,
servants, roomers, permanent guests,
etc.-must register if a ration Of
sugar is to be obtained for their use.
These must register in person.
4. Applicants should come pre-
pared with a list of the members of
their families, giving the exact name
of EACH.
S. An exact description of each
member of the family unit, giving
the height, weight, color of eyes,
color of hair, age and sex of each
one.
6. The person who registers for
the family unit must state his or her
exact relationship to each member
of it. One-and only one-person
of the family unit must 60 to the ele-
mentary school to register for the
family.
To Withhold HOarders' Books.
Z. It is necessary to know to the
pound just how much sugar is in the
possession of the household at the
time of registering. The amount of
sugar will be divided by the number
of persons in the family unit and
stamps will be torn out by the reg
istrar for all sugar in excess of two
pounds per person. If more than
four stamps have to be removed,
issuance of the rationing book will
be withheld until later.
This is the biggest registration job
ever undertaken in so limited a time
in the United States. Within four
days the nations 130,000,000 men,
women and children will be reg
istered and will receive their ration
books. The job can be done effici-
emily, completely and without con-
fusion only if the applicants come
prepared to answer all questions
promptly and accurately.
Askov American., 1942-04-30

NOTE: All persons living in FAM
lily unit must be registered at the same
time. These will include every blood
relative or ward who lives in the
family unit but does not include hired
individuals living in family unit.

On the Far Eastern front of the
world war the Japanese seem to have
struck a snag somewhere. Not Sc
many weeks ago they won battle:
wherever they fought them; they con-
quered Singapore, and they conquered
island after island in the Dutch Eas
Indies. Seemingly, there was nothing
to stop them. Also, they had almos
conquered the Philippine Islands.
Just now, they are not conquer
ing enough to justify even Tokyo
bulletins of triumphs. While they
make headway in Burma, they
are far from having Over-pOw-
cred that British crown colony.
They have not yet dared make
an outright attack on India, and
the Japanese fleet, reported by
Churchill to the British parlia-
ment as having steamed into the
waters close to India, has van
ished into dense silence.
At Australia they still look askance,
awed, perhaps, by the presence
of General Macarthur, and by the
knowledge that all the time new
British and American bombers and
fighters are arriving there.
There really appears to be pos
sibility that the great Japenese Of
fensive has petered out-at least,
there are at this writing no indica-
tions to the contrary.
General Symptoms.
Purposely, the United States mill
tary authorities refuse to publish
details about the American bombing
of four Japanese cities on April 18;
the mystery with which Washington
surrounds the affair serves to upset
Japanese nerves. The only detail
that has been revealed is that one
of the American machines taking part
in the attack was forced to make
landing somewhere in Siberia, Rus
sia, therefore, as between Moscow
and Tokyo, neutral territory, and the
Soviet authorities did the only thing
