HefzeI Joins Appeal
For D. {. Vacationisis
To Work on Farms

Fred Hetzel. acting area war
manpower director, today ap-
pealed to Government employees
and workers in private establish
ments in Washington to devote
at least part of their vacations
this fall to harvesting the crops
now ripening in Maryland and
Virginia.
It was understood that War
Food Administrator Marvin Jones
would ask heads of various Govern
ment departments to give special
consideration to granting leaves to
workers who wish to aid in the fall
harvesting.
Mr.. Hetzel said the number OF va
cationists who have volunteered for
work on farms is far below the
number needed to save crops. He
said it will take more than 10000
volunteers, each devoting one week
to harvest crops which will ripen
between now and November l.
Quoting John w. Jones. head of
the United States Employment Serv-
ice-Agricultural Extension Service
campaign to recruit vacationists in
the District, Mr.. Hetzel pointed out
that 10,480 man weeks of labor will
be necessary during this period to
complete the harvest. He said this
means that 10.480 private and Fed
eral employees must volunteer for a
weeks work.
Il have instructed USES officials
to contact personnel Offices in both
Government and private indus
tries" Mr.. Hetzel said, ito call their
attention to the crop emergency
I hope employers will cooperate in
sparing every employe possible for
at least one week for this impor-
tant task"
Mr.. Hetzel said the drought has
sharply curtailed certain crops. and
added that I'VE must give farmers
the necessary labor to save their re-
naming crops"
Mr.. Jones said 882 Government
employees already have volunteered
for farm work during the campaign.
He said 497 are now at work. or
have returned from work on farms.
and 385 will leave the District this
week or early next week for nearby
farms.
Peak Load Coming.
Mr.. Jones said all orders for har-
vest workers received by the USES
have been filled. He added, how
ever, that the peak labor load will
be from September to November /.
In addition to the farm labor
camp at Timberville, Va, Mr.. Jones
said camp will open next week at
Castlemans Ferry. Va. a short dis
tance from Berryville. He said this
camp will provide facilities for 200
boys and men who will be needed
each week until November /.
Room and board at the camp will
cost SO a week. Mr.. Jones said, and
workers will be- paid cents a crate
for picking apples, As cents a bushel
for picking snap beans. and IS cents
a shock for cutting corn. A round
trip bus ticket from Washington
costs $3.50.

eazzi. Governor of Vatican City,
left Lisbon by clipper Wednesday
night for the United States. a
Reuters dispatch reported today.
The purpose of his visit was not dis
closed, Reuters said, but there was

that it was connected with nego-
tiations to make Rome an open city.
Galeazzi went to the United States
in October, 194l, when he was chief
of economic services at Vatican
City, to buy supplies for the city, S
TOO inhabitants.
A Swiss telegraphic agency dis
patch from Vatican City said the
possibility was not excluded that

sonal message from Pope Plus XII
to President Roosevelt
The news agency called Galeazzi
"one of the closest counsellors of
the Pope" and said his journey was
believed to be in connection with the

Plans TO Convert Ito
Russian Relief Fund

Purchasing Sl00 bond to open
Americas S Third War Loan drive,
Prime Minister Winston Churchill
! said this afternoon that if the SIS
0C000o, 900 loan is fully subscribed
''it will undoubtedly have the effect
OF arpreciably shortening the strug-
gle; if it failed, it would entail
prolongation."
The Prime Minister made the pur-
chase from Secretary Morgenthau
in a ceremony in the diplomatic re-
ception room at the White House.
The scene was recorded by sound
movies for showing throughout the
country in connection with the bond
drive. which opens generally Sep
tenber 6.
After receiving the bond from Sec
retary Morgenthau, Mr.. Churchill
said that if the cabinet officer would
attend to the legal details of the
transfer he would give the bond to
Mrs. Churchill for her Russian relief
fund.
That brings us all together on
what is a joyous OCCASION" Mr..
Churchill said.
Mergentilau Assured of Success.

Secretary Morgenthau told him that
what he had said assures us success
in the bond drive"

was in high spirits as he went
through the ceremony exchanging
patter with both the photographers
and Mr.. Morgenthau.
AS the photographers were setting
up their equipment and posing the
two men, Mr.. Churchill broke in to
ask, What do We do now?' and
after he had sat for a few minutes
IN the high-powered lights which
they were using to illuminate the
scene he said, I'll be so much roast
ed that you will have to turn me
around and cook the other side"
He asked If it would be possible
for him and the Secretary to stand
up to do this thing" When ad-
Vlsed the photographers wanted
them to sit, he said, We'll, alright,
well do the way you say"
Thinks Decorations in Order.
After the Secretary had spoken of
the opening of the bond drive and
turned over the $100 certificate, Mr..
Churchill said:
L have often thought~of you Mr..
Secretary, as one of the bravest men
in the world. You ought to have the
Congressional Medal of Honor. the
Victoria Cross and all of the other
decorations of the Allies for being
able to lie down at night and sleep
quietly among all of these astro-
nomical figures in modern finance.
You have borne this great burden
with success
In more serious vein then. Mr..
Churchill recalled that this is the
1ourtn anniversary of Britain's en-
try into the war and said: I'VE have
right to be extremely thankful
that we are in such good position
after being in such long period of
peril and tribulation."
In turning over the bond to the
Prime Minister, Secretary Morgen-
thau said he was extremely happy
to sell you the first bond of the new
issue" and 1T will be such a won
derful example to the $4,000 900
Americans to whom we hope to sell
/ $100 bonds"
