l0PA,s SPRING FASHION NOTE FOR LOCAL WOMEN
Longer Wearing Hosiery Promised

It may be nothing like pre-
war days, but local women,
within the near future, can
expect their stockings to wear
better and last longer.
Bearer of this news is the
Minneapolis office of war in
formation, which says that a
new WPB regulation has SIM
plified the manufacture of all
stockings without decreasing
quantity or sacrificing style in
order to save Is million
pounds of hosiery yarn yearly.
When stocking production begins to
roll under the new regulations, women
win notice very little difference be-
tween the new types and those they
purchased formerly. the wPB prom

On This
Occasion
a Few Observations On Matters
Material and Immaterial BY
thu Editor.

When the atrocities of the Japs OF
our captured prisoners came to hgh
during the past two weeks, the sol
sisters at once got busy and spread
the propaganda of brotherly love with
the statement that only those who
committed the atrocities should b<
punished. We would like to know how
We are to run down the dirty Japs
who did the work or gave the orders
TO torture and kill the prisoners. The
same applies TO the Nazis and their
Gestapo. In our estimation, the only
way We can get the guilty ones pun
ished and exterminated is to bomb
blast and pound the Axis countries
in such a thorough manner that the
people Of the countries wiz rise in re-
sentiment and hang, quarter or boil in
oil, those war lords responsible for the
misery. No punishment is too severe
IN our eyes. The people of the count
ries are in position to know who the
guilty ones are and should themselves
take steps to rid the lands Of the
menace Of Hitler, Mussolini and Hiro-
hito that now has them in theeir
grip. Don't for a minute run away
with the idea that only the war lords
are responsible. The people condone
the crimes committed and are equally
guilty. Devastate the nations engaged
in the war against decency and democ-
racy. Let's win the war first and
then start talking about postwar re-
Mobilization. Some people talk as If
the war is already won notwithstand-
ing the fact that it is going stronger
than ever and the casualty lists are
getting larger and larger. We have
a suggestion to make After we knock
out the foreign countries and this can
be helped by the purchase Of bonds
TO help our boys at the front who are
taking the brunt of the argument Oh
the chin, let's see to it that the sob
sisters and the anti-Americans over
here be sent across to repopulate the
stricken countries in the manner they
love. The FBI has a list of those in
Ely as well as other places. The i'm
migration of these from America will
be for the good of this land Of the
free. Let's not harp on postwar &C
tivities until the main object Of win
mig the war has been accomplished.

Recommendations on Use
of &. C.. Are COmpiled

reation board, inspected facilities

Monday night, and viii make the fol-
lowing recommendations to the city
governing body:
I'd That the cafeteria be partitioned
to make large game room. The par
tition win be removable so that the
entire room may be employed fol-
banquets.
CD That a store room be created in
the southwest corner of the cafeteria
now used by coat racks. The depart
ment has no central store room.
CD That the council permit the de-
partment 10 use the auditorium as
often as necessary.
The survey is an outgrowth of a
joint meeting Of the recreation board

ago.

preaching the area. Traffic continues

The red signal, a warhling sound of
the sirens for two minutes, indicates
that q raid is imminent. Traffic must

FATHER VICTIM
OF GAS BLAZE
Smoke From Exploding Tanks
at Cloquet Visible Here;
Grass Fire Cause.

With Ely tn scene Of several un-
controlled grass fires which brought
warnings from forest service officials,
the father Of a local woman died as
the result Of the gasoline storage plant
conflagration IN Cloquet Saturday
touched off by burning grass.
The paH Of back smoke that hung
over this area, darkening the horizon
in the southwest, came from the
CIoquet blaze, forest service officials
here said
The victim of this fire was Homer
J. DUDE, father Of Mrs. Stephen
Smrekar of this city.
DUDE, 10 years old, former Cloquet
alderman, died from severe burns sus-
tanned when the first of seven gasoline
bulk tanks exploded. He was riding on
the steps OF Northern Pacific switch
engine which was passing the scene
Of the blast. Three other members Of
the train crew were burned, while a
fourth escaped injury.
The western section of Cloquet was
saved only because strong wind fan
ned the flames away from buildings.
Billows of black smoke and sheets of
red flame hung in the air as tank
after tank went up.
The blaze started from a grass fire
whose origin has not yet been reported
Besides his daughter here, DUDE is
