America, Iceland, Alaska and on
islands in the Atlantic and Pacif-
ic.
All are operated under the
same policy-to give laundry ser
vice to the American fighting
men where commercial laundries
cannot handle the volume of bu-
siness. Each charges the soldiers
a flat rate of $3.50 per month re-
gardless of the amount of cloth
ing and most of these 1aundries
employing civilian labor, return
a small profit.
In addition to these laudries
hundreds of mobile laundry units
are in the theatres of operation
These plants, operated by soldier
personnel, follow American troops
into the field and carry all ne.
cessary equipment for washing
and drying, although they do not
press or iron clothing.

OBITUARY
EMMA JONES

Emma Jones was born April
II, 1892 and departed this life
September IL, 1943, making her
stay on earth, 81 years, 4 months,
and Is days. She was the form
er Maize Emma Hudgson, and was
married to Jacob Jones on June
2, 1918. She professed a hope in
Christ and joined the Pine Swamp

death.
She leaves a husband and two
children: Mrs. c. E. Burgess, of
Galax, Va, and Richard Jones, of

and two sisters, and a host of rel
atives and friends. She was be-
loved by all who knew her. She
had a sweet smile for all, that
won her many friends through
out the county, and North Caro-

Husband and children, weep
not, for we feel that our loss is
her eternal gain. Mrs. Jones had
suffered for many months, but
she bore her suffering patiently
and was ready to go home and
live with Jesus.
A one we loved is gone
A voice we loved is still,
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.

Whether it is meat or other
farm products, spokesman at the
farm meeting said, prices to the
farmer must be enough to pay
for the cost of production, plus a
reasonable profit, or farmers are
forced to disregard ceiling prices
and sell at higher prices through
the black market.
The new roll-back plan, for
fruits and vegetables, to be car
ried out under the direction OF
Marvin Jones, War Food admin
istrator, aims at an immediate re-
duction of 4 per cent in the cost
of living. Separate plans, to be
operated by the VIA and by the
Office of Price Administration,
are now in operation to lower the
price to the consumer of apples,
oranges, onions, lard, potatoes,
peanut butter and edible vege-
table oils. The plans include di-
rect subsidies to farmers as well
as transportation subsidies.
The new program was started
the day before congress opened
without authority from congress.
Mr.. Jones said congressional ap-
proval was not needed, but it
seems likely that congress will
investigate these plans to deter
mine whether the cost, which will
probably be at least 100 million
dollars, is a worthwhile expendl-
ture. Many congressman are OPP
posed to subsidies and do not
think prices can or should be
maintained by this method. They
also feel that the launching of the
program on the day before con-
gress re-convened was deliber-
ate effort to sidestep COMPRESSION
al opposition.
It is likely, however, that the
plan will get a thorough test be-
fore congress has time to do any
thing about it for the new ses-
sion of congress is loaded with
problems which demand immedi-
ate consideration. Food prices
and subsidies are high on the list
of subjects for consideration, but
immediate action is also called
for on new taxes, on the man
power problem, on the complica-
ted subject of postwar planning
and on more effective anti-strike
| legislation.

1" IL: /" WASHINGTON
dlT::h::fTTl.

Washington, D. c. - Goaded
on by union leaders who threaten
to demand higher wages in war
plants unless the cost of living
is decreased, several government
agencies are now busy carrying
on programs which they promise
will bring the cost of living back
to the level of September Is,
1912.
Although the plans for doing
this will cost the taxpayers hun
dreds of millions of dollars, it
isn't likely that the housewife,
who does the family buying, will
note any major price relief. The
cost of butter may be reduced a
cent a pound, oranges may cost
her a cent or two less, and there
are apt to be other reductions of
a penny or so in products she
buys. But since prices now vary
considerably from store to store
and from day to day, the only
evidence of the reduction in the
cost of living will show up in
overall national figures.
Already the government has
spent many millions to roll back
prices on meat, but the expected
benefits to the consumer have not
materialized because of black
market operations in meat. John
D. Miller, president emeritus of
the National Council of Farm Co.
operatives, at a recent meeting of
farm cooperatives here, said that
the meat situation could not be
cleared up until farmers get a
better price for meat and are no
longer encouraged to seek higher
prices by dealing with black mar
ket operators.
Mr.. Miller called for repeal of
the Price Control act saying that
the prices farmers receive must
be established by supply and de-
mand and not by artificial man
ipulations by the government.
"While the price administration
is one of the most disturbing and
dangerous of all governmental
agencies" said Mr. Miller, ''it has
inadvertently performed one pub
lie service. This because its OPP
erations have been such as to call
attention to the people to the dan
ger of planned economy toward
which this country is so rapidly
moving
