Lieutenant Commander Edward H

Dairymen Await
State Meeting

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 10 (UP)-A
meeting of dairymen from all parts
of the state will be held in Fresno
a week from today to review de-
velopments in dairy supply and
feed conditions. w. j. Cecil, state
director of agriculture, announced
today.
A committee appointed at a
similar meeting in October will re-
port on conferences with state and
federal agencies on plans for main
tanning milk and dairy products
production.
"Of prime Importance, Cecil
said, "is the fact that as of today,
no action has been taken by con :,
gress toward extending the feed
subsidy for dairymen beyond Dec.
81, nor has any substitute program
been developed. Unless some ac-
ton is taken by the responsible
Washington agencies, within the
next few days, we will see a further
decline in the production of milk by
our California dairymen.
This would occur because dairy
mems current cost of production
would not be covered as of Jan. l
if the subsidy expires and present
prices are left at existing levels.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 CUP)-
Travellers in the United States will
cover more miles in 1914 than in
any single year in the history of the
country-on diminishing numbers
of trains, buses, and passenger
cars, government transportation au-
thorities said today.
The Office of Defense Transpor-
tation anticipates a 1914 mileage in.
crease of Is per cent in military
and civilian passenger travel, and
a three to six per cent jump in
freight, on railroads that were re-
ported to be straining to the limit
months ago. There will be virtually
no new equipment added, except for
locomotives.
Officials emphasized that the fig
ures on anticipated increase do not
take into account the additional
load expected to be imposed on
railroads by diversion of passenger
and freight normally carried by
rubber borne vehicles.
Pressed into service to absorb this
record load will be every piece of

This is the inside story of an in

You'll be reading this introduce
tion soon on a Hollywood movie,
1.-The Hitler Gang" which violates
everything in the Hollywood book
with an all-villain cast, no boy
meets girl theme, no handsome
hero.
AS the introduction continues.
This is the intimate and au-
/ thentic account OF the rise to pow
er of international political BAN
dts who prevailed for a while, not
because they were themselves
strong and worthy, but only be-.
cause they were in no way bound
by the codes of civilization tina!
men have been so many centuries
establishing.
"It presents them, not only &C
they appeared to the public, but
also as they appeared to one an
other"
"The Hitler Gang" as Paramount
is bringing it to the screen, is
purely documentary and nom
ficticnized, based on authentic data
gathered in washington and from
the Libraries of three coast uni
versities, Stanford, use and UCLA.
I'VE cross-checked our facts three
ways before putting them into the
script says Producer Joe Sistrom,
and spent an unpre cedented S40,-

The picture isn't the story o.
World War II. It's the story c.
Adolph Hitlers rise to power, from
his release as a corporal from the
Bavarian Regiment in
1918, to the invasion of Austria and
Everybody knows" says Pro-
ducer Sistrom, what has happened
since the Nazis went to war. People
don't know what happened in Ger
many before the war. That's what
our picture is about"

NEW EXPERIENCE

ANIV I'M
Work outside their homes was q
new experience for many of them
both teen-aged and gray-haired, but
now they're doing everything from
filing to welding.
Add to these the untold millions
Of American women to whom the
war has brought additional home
and community duties and you have
a picture of American womanpower
in an all-out fight for victory
In the munitions-p producing in
dustries alone, one out of every four
workers is a woman, where prior to
the war only one out of every 10
workers was q woman.
During the past year alone an
additional 100000 women have found
employment in jobs directly related
to the forging of weapons of war.
IN UNIFORMS
Roughly 100000 women have
traded their favorite fripperies for
uniforms of one of the armed serv-
ices or one of the allied nursing
corps. Two years ago this nation
counted less than $4,000 women
all nurseS--in it's armed forces.
The last year saw the creation of
the womens Marine corps as a re-
serve group designed to free devil
dogs for combat, and the expansion
of women's units in the Army, Navy
! and Coast Guard.
BY years end an estimated $4,000
young women will be wearing Ma
rine greens" Quotas call for an
: additional 5000 by July l, 1914,
half of whom are slated for ground
aviation work such as control tower
operation, parachute rigging, plane
repair and maintenance.
PAVED WAY
A congressional act paved the
way for the absorption into the
Army last September 80 for men,
bers of the Women's Army Auxiliary
Corps to be known henceforth as
the Womens Army Corps, charged
with the same responsibilities
cep tcombat-and entitled to the
same benefits as their brothers in
olive drab.
When they entered the Army
their strength became a military
secret. The last announced WAC
total was $1,000, with a goal of 15O,-
600 by Jan. l, 1914, and an addi-
tional 10000 during the following
year.
EnliStments are tagging behind
these objectives, but the response is
reported improving.
Skirted soldiers invaded North
Africa last February, taking over
behind-the-lines duties. Subsequent
ly, units were assigned in England.
With the exception of nursing
corps, other women's services are
land-locked. All, however, are re-
leasing an equivalent number of
men for active duty.

Chinese Cadets
Meet Red
Shelton In Person

WILLIAMS FIELD, CHANDLER,
Ariz., March 18-Chinese cadets at
Williams Field, the first of their
nation to take advanced twin engine
training in America, had never seen
radios top flight comic, Red Skel-
ton, in person. Red had never
played before an audience of Chi
nese cadets. Both met unexpected
ly during classroom period at
Williams Field, and the result
equalled mixing TINT. with sui
phuric acid.
The famous originator of "I Dood
It. quietly walked into the room,
was recognized by one of the Chi
nese fledgling fliers who Immediate
ly yelled something in his native
| tongue, and then the fun began. In
body, the men bore down on Red
to shake his hand and ask ques-
tions in an excited tumble of lang
uages.
Finally, some semblance of order
was restored and Shelton started
telling jokes. He progressed half
way through the first one when the
audience broke into gust of laugh
ter which continued throughout the
comedians half hour performance.
The cadets laughed at Red; Red
laughed at the cadets; the tables
were turned; the entertainer was
being entertained! Actually, it was
a tosS-up as to who had the most
fun.
In all probability, the comedian
never played to more appreciative
audience. On regaining his breath,
Red Shelton declared, This is the
first time I've appeared before a
completely Chinese audience, but
these boys are certainly swell.
can't recall when I've had a better
time" Following his performance
Shelton exchanged autographs with
the students and left with the Chi
nese signature of every cadet pres
ent, besides receiving an emblem
one man had torn from his uniform.
The star of stage, screen and radio
arrived at this nations greatest ad-
vanced twin engine flying school the
previous night to entertain the
soldiers. Commanding Officer Col
onel Herbert L. Grills expressed his
appreciation in behalf Of field per
sonnel and escorted the visitor and
his party around the Post.

Give Our Defenders Proper Sendoff!

Nogales is patriotic little city,
1t has sent hundreds Of men to the armed forces
and all of us are very proud Of those folks.
It always makes good showing in bond, Red
Cross, and other drives.
But Nogales has fallen down on one thing since
this started and that the lack of proper send
off for the leaving for the reception center at
Fort Macarthur To- --~~f~~. -'~-l.
Occasionally the boys are given package or two
OF cigarettes and maybe there's handful of folks
Other communities turn out in full force, and
give their youths sendoff they'll forever remember
It seems to us that some organization here either
the Elks, American Legion, Tomateros, Rotary,
Knights Of Pythias, Knights of Columbus, some
other organization should take the lead in this matter
and to it that give the defenders of nation
bigger sendoff.
The boys would appreciate it.

Nogales Needs A Blood Bank

The Tomatero Association has $1,000 to donate to
some worthy project and wants the public to send IN
suggestions how the money should be spent
We've heard several suggestions but none better
than that the funds should be used in establishing
blood bank here.
Said a prominent local man the other day: One
of these days there's going to be accident and blood
is going to be needed badly to life. Nogales
should have blood bank place where donations Of
blood can be made and plasma held for the time when
it will be in demand.
Even if the plasma should never be used here it
certainly would be welcomed by the Red Cross In
81 cities the Red Cross is carrying one of its
most dramatic wartime activities procurement
of 5S000O0 pints of blood for the Army and Navy.
Already more than 100000 pnts have been donated
Says Red Cross circular: -
donations are being stepped up from $4,000
pints to 10000 pints week, r.,
"Out of Pearl Harbor, Bataan and Corregidor,
from the Solomon Islands, Australia and North Africa
have come factual accounts showing Red Cross pasma
helped save the lives of thousands of wounded Amer-
soldiers and sailors"
Suggestion has also been made that the tomateros,
friends Of boys" help buy some badly needed athletic
equipment for Nogales High School. That's good
one too, for each and every boy in that school is
potential soldier and any athletic equipment used
helps those boys to become healthier and better
able to meet their German, Jap and Italian antagon
lists on the battlefields.
