What Are We Fighting For?'
To Be Subject of Sermon

What Are We Fighting For?" is
the dynamic question to which
Chaplain c. Hamilton Martin, as
sistant to the Post Chaplain, will
present an equally -as-dynamic an
swer Sunday morning at the Post
Chapel.
Persons who have not heard any
of his thought t-provoking sermons
are urged to hear Chaplain Martin
Sunday morning. Services begin at
10 O'Clock.
Last Sunday morning, the chap
lain preached to packed house on
the subject, "Blues in the Night" ;"
Using the popular song hit of few
months ago as his sermon theme,
Chaplain Martin warned the male
listeners in his audience of the dam
gers of straying from things that
their "Mammas done told" them as
we'll as forgetting that here are types
of women who are dangerous NOR
ally, mentally and physically.

Allen Williams. Sgt Williams is the
company clerk for the 3417th and he
is doing darn good job, too.
The soldier interests me because
he has not only the qualities of
good soldier, but of a good citizen.
I have soldiered with him and now
I am working with him and I can
truly say that he deserved all that
he has gained. Some of the quail
ties that I admire in Sgt. Williams
is his perseverance sticking to his
job until it is finished and finished
well. He also has pleasant and de-
lightful personality that invites his
fellow soldiers with long forgotten
friendship. His traits of discipline
and courtesy make him a well bal
anced soldier to face not only his
friends with a smile but his enc
mics.
Sgt. Williams principal duty is
company clerk and how many sol
diers take the time to think of the
duties of a company clerk? It's. a
worrisome job and yet all the hopes
and the making of a good company
are built around it. Yet this SOL
dier does that job in such man
ner that he finds a pleasure in do
ing it. I have been working with
Sgt Williams now for about four
months and never yet have known
him to neglect his duty. I admire
him and look up to him because ]
think a soldier is more than man

Copper Wire Available
To Benton Farmers

One hundred pounds of copper,
equivalent to 500 feet of No. IL
wire, has been made available by
the WPB to Benton county farm
ers during July, August and Sep
tember for essential farm wiring
which will result in increased food
production. ..-....-. .,.@-.1 -.
! None of this allotment will be
released for farm dwelling and
none will be released for farm
construction amounting to over
$1,000, which requires approval di-
rectly from the WPB. ALLEGATIONS
to Individual farms will be made
upon application to the USDA
war board and will be based upon
the number of animal units on
the farm, subject to the maximum
amounts permitted per farm.
Purchase certificates for this
farmstead wiring will be issued
by the local USDA war board and
farms will be pleased to know that
retailers must give preference to
such orders over orders supported
by preference ratings alone. This
gives farmstead wiring a much
higher rating than it has hereto
fore had. ..s<r 3 '@sEgs l,-s -. -.
Small amounts ow wiring, up
to rs feet, are now being released
under PR-19 and can be obtained
for farm use by making the neces-
sary certification as to the need
of the dealer.
/ Applications for larger amounts
than rs feet are available at the
USDA war board office in Ken
neWick.

Blue Stamps R-S-T
Valid Aug. /

Blue stamps r, S, and 7 in war
ration book two, for buying pro-
cessed foods, become valid Sunday,
August /, and will remain good
through September 2.
Stamps N P and @ now in use,
will remain valid through August

In validating the next set of
ration stamps, OPA pointed out
that consumers now are enjoying
the most plentiful, supply of fresh
fruits and vegetables available at
any time during the year.
Families who are using only
fresh fruits and vegetables during
the summer months, and are not
using their processed foods stamps
for buying canned food, are urged
to destroy their valid stamps at
once.
1t is illegal, OPA reminded, for
a consumer to give his retailer
ration stamps for which he does
no receive the equivalent point
value in food.

Free Mail Seen
AS Rate Hazard
OContinued from Page ID

Continued from Page ID
TO succeed in the face Of a sub
stantial post office department
profit.
AS far back as anyone can re-
member the post office depart
ment has shown an operating loss
at the end of each year. And, on
several occasions, this everpresent
deficit has been projected by some
congressman in favor of increasing
postal rates. Such a move again
threatens.
Through heightened efficiency
and economy Of operation, the
department in the last 10 years
has trimmed its annual deficit
from 112 millions dollars to only
IA millions. However, there is
still a deficit and as long as il
exists il is a potential lever with
which some legislators may try
to raise postal rates.
This deficit is due entirely to
the free mail carried for the many
government departments an
agencies. The volume of this mail
has multiplied five-fold in the
last ten years. Last year the
postal department estimated that
if this free mail had been paid
for, it would have brought ~
million dollars into its Golfers,
wiping out the IA million dollar
deficit and leaving a So million
dollar profit. Thus il is clear
that the way TO turn the depart
ment's loss into gain and elimin-
ate this threat to rates is to re
woke the free mailing privilege
and require the agencies to pay
postage on all mail they send
Business mail users and pri-
vite individuals as well would
suffer from an increase Of rates
at this time. A means to avert
this postal rate menace and COM
bat any moves in that direction
is passage of the Burch bill, CHR.
200D which provides that all gov
eminent departments and bureaus
be required to pay postage on all
mail they send out. Active sup
port of this bill would be in the
interests of all mail users, the
post office department, and sound
government accounting. 'm'
