SOMEWHERE IN ENGLAND
AS boy. 1t. John TAFT of Paramount

when his American Arn1y unit moved
into this quaint village and John S

During spare time John likes to
ramble over the big house. tapping
walls and panelling for secret pass

Instead he found tunnel. Part

Some weeks later village folk told
him this story:
Many years ago, woman who
lived at the manor was ordered by
her husband to perform a certain
important task. She refused and a
heated argument followed In a
moment Of wild rage. the man drew
his sword and with mighty sweep
parted her head from her shoulders" :"

Campaign 10 Reduce
Clothing Purchases
Reported Planned
WPB Spokesman Says
Whiteside Is Committed
To Avoiding Rotionine
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A, D. Whiteside. chief of WPBs
ONCE OF Civilian Requirements, has
committed himself to heading of
clothing rationing. War Production
Board spokesman said today and
has won the agreement of influential
retailers to don't-buy more than
you-need campaign.
A sweeping program of ALLEGATION
of textile equipment and manpower
to get the maximum output in
fabrics and clothes from existing
facilities-will be undertaken. the
spokesman said. adding that success
will depend on the cooperation of
consumers and the retail trade.
Department stores and clothing
stores will have to get behind a new
idea-to discourage people from buy
ing instead of urging them to pur-
chase all they can afford" said a
WPB official.
Lew Hahn. general manager of the
National Retail Dry Goods Associa- =
ton. and several representatives of
big New York department stores re-
Gently participated in a conference
with Mr.. Whiteside and WPB Chair
man Donald M. Nelson in working
out opening phases of the plan.
One. phase woulo be to halt such
asserted practices as advising GUS
toners to purchase several gar
ments to prepare themselves for
eventual rationing
A squirt in clothing buying was
reported recently, touched off by Mr..
Nelson's testimony before con-
gressional committee that clothing
rationing was imminent" unless
the Government and the industry
got together quickly to solve their
problems.
Some WPB officials were repre-
sented as believing it would be pre-
mature to give assurance that there
would be no raticning. but Mr..
Whiteside was described as having
put all his chips on increased pro-
duction and reduced sales volume"
Retailers. it was said. will be
urged to restrict their advertising
to the promotion of clothing, dry
goods and fabrics which are both
durable and in reasonably plentiful
supply.

LONDON. May 2l.-Gen. Henri
Giraud was reported today to have
offered Gen. Charles de Gaulle a
new approach to a settlement of the
problems of French union, again
raising hopes for a London -Algiers
agreement.
Accord between Algiers and Lon
don near" said a headline in
France, the Fighting French daily,
which based this conclusion on the
report that the military and civil
commander in chief of French
North Africa had sent a new note to
Gen. De Gaulle.
In this, Gen. Giraud was said to
have suggested that Gen. De Gaulle
and two other members of his
French National Committee meet
him and two other North African
administration members in Algiers.
Between them, these six would
select three other representative
Frenchmen and this committee of
nine would attempt to eliminate
obstacles in the way of unity.

advising State Federations of Labor
and local unions to disobey these
laws until the courts have ruled on
them Sc
The evidence IS clear that reac-
tionary groups-notably the Chris

simultaneously sponsored anti-labor
legislation of this nature in State
legislatures throughout the land

priving American workers and their
labor unions of their basic rights

Pool

More Efficient
Use Of Rejected
Men Is Proposed

I WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.
lUP)-Selective Service Di-
rector Lewis B. Hershey told
a house military affairs sub
committee today that he felt
a partial answer to the nations
manpower problem might be found
in more efficient utilization of draft
registrants classed as 4-F.
t"I think we've got labor pool
in 4-F's," Hershey said. Il do not
think many 4-F's have contributed
as much to the war effort since
they were placed in that category
as they did before"
Hershey testified as senate ad-
ninistration leaders took advantage
of a week end recess to work on
arguments against the Wheeler
father draft deferment bill.
LIMITED SERVICE
He said there was constant de-
mand for the services of conScien-
tious objectors, who currently are
placed in labor camps. Some sort of
limited service organization of 4-F'3,
he intimated might fill part of the
demand for such services.
Hershey admitted he could not
;et recommend just what type OF
organization" should be set up.
Hershey was questioned closely
concerning the rejection of athletes
for military service
Rep. Charles Elston, r., O., point
ed to the rejection of Dizzy Dean
one time big league pitcher, and
added he had read "the st. Louis
Browns are going to have 4F
infield next year"

can't understand why we have to

agreed, but said that the armed
services set the standards for in

Sulphur Used in
Battle with Ducks
By Rice Growers
Fowl Unafraid of Most
Devices Used in Attempt
To Prevent Crop Damage

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 2.
(UP)-Rice growers in the
Sacramento valley, who have
found that ducks aren't scar
ed by anything from roaring
pursuit planes to army practice
bombs, hoped today the ducks were
fastidious about odors.
Encouraged by shortage of shot
gun shells, ducks in flocks as high
as 10000 threatened serious loss
to the rice crop.
Rice growers formerly hired to
shoot all day over flocks of the feed
ing ducks. If a few of the birds
accidentally got killed, that was
all right as long as the game warden
wasn't around.
Today it's different story. The
tate departments of agriculture and
natural resources cooperating with
the growers were still attempting
to find foolproof procedure which
will keep the ducks in the game
sanctuaries and out of the rice
fields.
Latest measure tried out was the
burning of sulphur, according to
William H. Moore, acting state di-
rector of natural resources. The
farmers hoped that sulphur fumes
