Gets 2 Years for
Ownership of Mash

The federal district court al
Yakima late Tuesday afternoon
sentenced Francis E. Jennings to
two years of Imprisonment when
he pleaded guilty to the charge Of
having mash intended for distilla-
ton of liquor in his possession
in his trailer near Hanford, but
suspended the sentence and placed
Jennings on probations for two
years.
This action was taken by the
court after the trial had been
conducted and completed on the
basis Of agplea by the defendant
of being innocent Of the charge.
Sydney Livesey, counsel for the
defendant, made a motion early
in the trial for suppression Of the
evidence on the grounds that it
had been obtained unlawfully.
After the prosecution had rested
the case and the court had an
nounced that the case would be
taken under advisement, Livesey
withdrew his motion and the de-
PENDANT changed his plea to guilty.

An interesting sidelght on the
war comes out this week in the
return of local soldier boy. Merle
Babcock, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Claude Babcock Of this city was
injured in Naples on a recent trip
to the war zone. Upon his return
his injury was treated to the ex-
tent that he's better now than be-
fore his entry into the armed serv-
ice.
The story runs something like
this. Merle, as a member of the
military police, was flown in q
Boeing Bomber from Carolina non
stop to Sicily shortly after the Al
lies had taken Naples. The crew
of eight on the bomber carried IL
MPs on the 12-hour flight across
the Atlantic.
Shortly after his arrival in Sicily
Merle's company was sent in to
take over and police the city OF
Naples, which he said was moth
ing more than a shambles. One
night, about 10 o'clock, the Heinies
came over dropping bombs and
Merle received a piece of shrapnel
in his left eye.
He was given first aid and was
back on duty the afternoon of the
next day, with a patch over his

Chamber TO Fight
or Permanent
arm Labor Camp
Possible loss evident in
bill now before the
House in Washington

Recent Developments in Con-
gres have again put the local farm
labor camp in the doubtful column
and with it the consequent question
of harvesting the local crops for
another year.
Annually the question of farm
labor comes before Congress and
the matter of supplying the farm
areas with additional labor suffi-
cient to harvest the crops develops.
The most successful of these was
the plan put into operation last
year, of shipping in thousands of
Mexican nationals to the critical
areas. This involves housing
problem which was more or less
solved by the distribution of the
permanent and mobile farm labor
camps.
Locally, it is now conceded that
without this outside help, which
included the importation of some
800 farmers from the Middle West,
the loss on local farms would have
been considerably greater than was
actually the case. Next year pre-
sents an even more acute problem
with the increasing number from
the farms being called into the
service.
The establishment Of a perman-
ent camp here, rather than the
mobile camp, is again in the lap Of
Congress, which by its actions be-
fore the first of the year will de-
termine the possibility of handling
the situation here and in other
critical areas.
The matter was discussed at the
chamber of commerce meeting this
noon and a special committee will
try to get the Washington delega-
ton to understand the vital i'm
portance to this community Of the
outside assistance during the har-
vesting season. The Food for Vic
tory committee, an organization of
representatives concerned with the
food production, will meet tomor-
row night to give further con-
sideration to the problem.

Investigators Find
Evidence Of Local
Black Market
Meat and gasoline are
being sold illegally in
this locality

"A serious black market has de,
veloped in this area and officials
have already made investigations
concerning the activity in both
meat and gasoline.
Upon complaint from the local
rationing board, special investi-
gators came to Kennewick the
first Of the week and found un-
mistakable evidence of illegal traf-
fic. AS a matter of fact there have
been several fragrant violations
of the rationing regulations, but
some of them have been through
ignorance, while others are dis
tinctly deliberate violations.
Conviction of the violations can
be made against both buyer and
seller in these activities and the
maximum penalties are $4,000
and/ ten years in the federal
penitentiary. Where the evidence
indicates a deliberate violation,
the department plans to prosecute
in an attempt to stamp out the
traffic in this area.
The illegal traffic is growing,
according to the investigators and
further investigations will be made
the last of this week.
The local board calls attention
to the results of patronizing the
black market-the waste, the lack
Of inspection and the breaking
down of the regulations under
which the nation has been able to
control the food situation. They
also stress the fact that under
the law, both parties to the trans
action can be made equally guilty.

Scouts 10 Collect
Waste Paper this
Week Saturday
Tin can drive is
also under way fol.
this locality

Beginning right now an intens-
i've drive for tin and paper is be-
ing started in Kennewick as well
as in all other parts Of the coam-
try. While this area has made
an excellent record in most of the
other drives, the salvaging of tin
and paper has Jagged because Of
the difficulty up to now of ship
ping. The Boy Scouts will take
charge of the paper drive, while
the Kiwanis club is sponsoring the
collection of tin cans. The club
has erected building on the lots
just west of the Havstad block
where the cans are to be depos-
tied. To be disable, the cans must
be clean, have the labels removed,
the ends cut out and flattened.
They are to be taken to the build
ing in cartons or sacks and not
dumped, as the truckers must load
them for shipment to Yakima
where the carloads will be as
sembled.
The papers may be left on the
curb this Saturday only, providing
they have been tied in bundles or
boxed. Papers and magazines
should be tied separately.
The Boy Scouts have arranged
for the use of the city truck Sat-
urday and they will make the coll
lection if the bundles are left on
the curbs in front Of the residences.
This campaign is necessary, ac-
cording to Donald M. Nelson, WPB
chairman, OF Overcome q shortage
in waste paper, the material from
which many implements Of war are
made"
A paper mill in Spokane is now
equipped to handle the waste pa
per and it is no longer necessary
to. ship it clear to California as
before.

The two numbers which Wanda
Landowska, world renowned harp
sichordist, played as soloist on the
final program Of the Chamber Mu-
sic Guilds series last night at Con-
tinental Memorial Hall, provided
one of those unforgettable expert
ences that sometimes is to be found
in concert season. So much was
evoked by the artists performance
of music of another era, not the
least of which was simple and rest
ful enjoyment. Nine. Landowska S
portion of the program followed
after the playing by the guild
string quartet of Jacobs quartet
on Indian Themes" and the singing
of Nan Merryman, this years WIN
ner of the National Federation of
Music Clubs biennial contest, who
was heard in Respighi's III Ira
monte" with string quartet accom-
paniment.
The personality of Nine. Lam
istry. Poised in demeanor, she has
commanding presence all the more
communicative because of her lack
Of ostentation. In the light from
shaded lamps and dressed in trail
ing velvet robe she made a picture
in keeping with her music. A little
time is required for the unaccus-
toned ear to familiarize itself with
the delicate sorority of the harpsi-
chord but once that Is achieved the
effect of its soft sound is hypnotic.
The technical expertise Of Nine,
Landowska and her refined musical
sense made the hearing Of the
Vivaldi- Bach Concerto in D Ma
jor" and the Concerto in C Minor" !"
by Phillip Emanuel Bach on the
instrument for which they were
written rare experience
In many respects. a new valua-
ton OF both composers was OBJ
tanned. The arrangement for harp
sichord which Bach made OF the
Vivaldi violin concerto brought out
fresh nuances, put emphasis on
certain voices and made more sig
nificant aspects OF Bach's art not
fully appreciated through other in
struments. The exquisite lightness
Of Nine LandoWska touch in the
first and last movements was set
of by the eloquence Of her effects
in the Larghetto. The delightful
concerto by Bach's famous son con-
cluded with a cadenZa written by
Nine. LandoWska A more enthu-
siastic reception has seldom been
given an artist than that accorded
the famed harpsichordist.
The opportunity to welcome a
promising young singer also contri-
buted to the interest of the con-
cert Miss Merryman has a re-
sonant. warm mezzo- soprano voice
equally rich throughout it's con-
siderable range and which she un-
derstands how to employ to further
a musically estimated interpreta-
ton. In the long and dramatic
setting Respighi has given to Shell
ley's poem, she demonstrated a
vocal resourcefulness and a drama
tic instinct of unusual proportions.
