Swing Shutters Enjoy
Gym at YWCA
and YMCA

Men and women on the swing
shift need no longer forego some
fun after working hours because
they don't have time to go home
to clean up and change clothes.
The Young Mems and Young
Women's Christian Associations,
both War Chest agencies, have
solved that problem for the work
ers by throwing open their ia
cilities two nights a week to swing
shift workers only, where they
may dance, swim, play ping pong,
billiards, bridge or other games,
or have a workout in the gymnas-
ium. Facilities are available for a
shower, too.
Every Wednesday from 1 to
am, latter Tuesday nights work.
the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation is open exclusively to swing
shift workers, when the recrea-
tional facilities of the place are
at their disposal. Each Friday on
the same hours (after Thurs
days work. the same program is
available at the Young Womens
Christian Association, except the
gymnasium is not open. Instead,
the badminton courts are thrown
open to anyone who wishes to
play. No formal program is ever
planned and guests may pick out
whatever activity appeals to them.
Charge at both places is 95 cents.
This is not an organized activ-
! ity," Milton Iliwitz, chairman of
the group, said. Workers may
come with or without a date, and
pick out any activity that appeals
to them. At about $3.50 am, a
lunch is served"

American Legion
Adopt Three-Poin
Program

A three-point major legislative
program for the American Le-
gion for 1913, based ON the deolar-
alton of principles and other reso-
lutions adopted by the path ma
tional convention, was designated
by the national executive commit.
tee at its meeting in indianapolis,
November 10. on the recommended
ton of Isadore Levine of LaPorte,
Ind, chairman of a subcommittee
on the legislative program, His
report was adopted.
The three-point major leglsla-
tive program follows:
1. Winning the war,
?. Winning the peace.
3. Preserving American de-
mocracy.
Under the first point Chairman
Levine called for the final action
necessary to make the Legion's
universal service program conf
plete, $50 that we may implement
our efforts with a real manpower
bill. thus plugging the last loop
hole in our program of universal
service which we have been cham
pioning for % years"
on the second point, Chairman
Levine recommended that thought
be given to the appointment of an
American Legion national commits
sion which will make an unbiased
and thorough study of the world
wide phase of winning the peace,
so that we can make a valuable
contribution to the program when
hostilities cease"
Regarding the third point, Chair
man Levine said:
"Our Americanism program
Throughout the years has been
based upon the preservation of
our form Of government. We adj
here to the principles Of our de-
mocracy and we must keep up
permOst in our minds the objective
that our boys shall not lose their
American heritage at home while
they fight abroad"

Wedewood Homes
Expertly Built

The modern, planned commun-
ity of Wedgwood, in the suburbs of
Seattle, Washington, a major de-
Tense industry area, is one of the
most distinctive new subdivisions
in the United States, where quail
ity-built, five-and-sIX-room houses
on spacious wooded lots are sold
for $3.50 to 5000. These houses,
which are designed by architects
Thomas, Granger and Thomas, are
already nationally recognized for
their good architecture quality
construction and distinctive set
tings
I'VE are proud Of the fact that
in our Wedgwood project we are
producing a better house, at a
lower selling price than is to be
found in any of the local govern
ment-operated defense housing
projects says Mr.. Balch.
"Wedgwood houses are built by
our own construction company"
Throughout every phase of our OPP
Grafton it has been our one object
i've to see not how little, but how
much we can give the home buy
er for his investment. For this
reason we are admittedly operat-
ing on a close margin of profit.
Maury Setter stated.
The 40 acre Weogwood subdivi-
sion, which is bounded by East
SOth and East S5th, 80 Ave. NE,
and 80 Ave N. E, is a parklike
district on the main highway just
outside the city limits of Seattle
The main entrance is marked with
wide, distinctive gates, and the en-
tire development is screened from
the road by a cypress hedge that
ultimately will reach a height OF
eighteen feet.
Wedgwood houses are of frame
construction, of five and six-room
designs, and offer detailing thai
would cost approximately 25 pei
cent more if these homes were in,
div!dually built by owners.
Wedgwod has been plated into
irregular blocks, with easily curry
ing streets, in conformance will
the latest residential district
planning. Every house has beer
designed for its respective site
hence Wedgwood has none of the
monotonous long straight row eff
fects now conspicuous with defense
housing projects. Prefabricatior
has been avoided in every instance
Carefully planned restrictions
and a rigidly observed policy Of
securing buyers, gives Wedgwoot
that same air of social distinction
that Albert Balch built up in his
much publicized View Ridge add
ton. Buyers of Wedgwood homes
have nothing to worry about by
way of social environment for theil
families, for the developers make
it a requisite that every buyer be
an individual of representative so,
cial standing in the community.

SOVIET SCRAP
TANKS FROM
NOLGA

Stalingrad is running its own
scrap metal drive-and this ones
carried on under artillery fire and
aerial bombardment.~
The Red Army needs equipment
and doesn't give a tank up for
lost even when it's on the bed of
the Volga river as a result of
the sinking of a freighter by Nazi
planes. When a ferry carrying
tanks was sunk in the river at
Stalingrad, Russian deep sea div
eTs went down to recover them.
The detachment walked the river
bed for an hour under fire from
trench mortars and other artillery.
Under the guidance of a comman-
der who was struck by Nazi fire,
the divers brought the tanks up
to the shore with hosting ma
chimes.
Soviet deep sea divers have also
saved Nazi equipment for use by
the Red Army. After Russian ar
tillery batteries had sunk a Ger
man transport in the Black Sea,
continued Soviet fire prevented
Nazi speedboats from saving the
cargo. That night Russian divers
went down for the sunken mate
rial and brought it ashore. Since
the start of the war, Russian
divers have given the Red Army
millions of dollars worth of war
equipment by salvaging German
munitions.

Help Squash Rumors

Here are7o simple ways you can
observe to help speed the winning
of the war:
1. Never repeat a rumor.
2. Do not repeat a rumor ver-
bally even to deny it.
8. If you know the facts which
can spike a rumor, cite the facts
promptly.
4. If you do not know the facts
which can stop a rumor, ask the
rumor-tellor where he got his
facts.
5. Don't give a rumor the bene-
fit of doubt.

MILK SHORTAGE
REPORTED HERE
Producers Inaugurate Cur
taiIment Plan; Factories,
to Be Affected

Although home consumers Of milk
have been given preference I'm.
der the milk program which took
effect yesterday, some dealers IN the
waterbury area are reported to
have imposed voluntary" cuts In
the amount Of milk supplied to
homes. A number Of producers are
reported to have asked their heavy
customers II they could get along
with less milk and decreases have
been imposed accordingly.
Under the new regulations sales
OF fluid milk must be limited to the
amount recorded in June. Stores and
factories are expected to be the first
to be noticeably affected by cuts In
delivery.
Farmers believe production Of
milk will increase somewhat In q
few weeks, when cows become &C.
customed to being off pastures.
Farmers also believe that an In
crease in price Of milk would aid
In preventing large sales Of herds
and diversion to Strengthening. A
two-cent increase Is now under con-
sideration b ythe OPA.
