Plan 'Unwise'

WASHINGTON-The senate
Truman committee has closed its
inquiry into the war departments
$130,OOO,OOO Canadian oil venture
with a declaration by Chairman
Truman, D., Mo-, that the army
had failed to justify this expendi-
ture."
Brig. Gen. Walter B. Pyron, the
army's petroleum expert, wound up
the testimony with an assertion
that military necessity dictated the
decision to develop the oil fields
near Norman Elm the dark days of
1892"
His testimony, like that of I'm
dersecretary of War Robert P.
Patterson, was in sharp contrast
to the verdict of Petroleum Admin
istrator Harold L. Ickes that the
whole project Ought to be junked
now"
General Pyron could not en-
tighten the committee as TO wheth-
er the army contemplated an ex-
pansion of the pipeline and refin-
cry included in the so-called Canol
project.

Per Capita War Bond Purchases Here
Twice AS High AS Average In Nation

s24, 900, 100000 a year under the new
tax bill.
For the past several months Bluff
ton residents have been buying war
bonds and stamps on q per capita
basis of about sis per month,
thought to be the highest average
in the state of Ohio. If the rest of
the nation would meet this average
the total revenue from bonds would
be exactly double that present
amount.
Government experts believe that
the war costs will rise to about
$4,000, 100000 per month and level
off there. War costs for the fiscal
year beginning July l are estimated
at $4,000, 100000. Other govern
mental expenditures are expected te
bring the total budget to about
$1O5, ,0O0, 100000.
On he basis of these figures the
government will have to borrow
about $4,000, 100000 during the
next fiscal year.
There have been rumors that wal
bonds are being redeemed in large
numbers. Treasury figures show tha
very small percentage of them sole
since May, 1941, have been cashed

Scouting Started
Here 30 Years Ago

Scouting in Bluffton started short
ly after the national Boy Scout or
ganization began its activities 33
years ago.
The first troop in Bluffton was or
ganized about 1912 with DR.. j. S.
Steiner, Bluffton physician, as the
first scoutmaster.
Other Scoutmasters here were:
Armin Hauenstein, Steiner Geiger,
Turley Rupright, Dwight Murray,
Robert Schaublin. Present Scout
masters are: Karl Gable and Paul
Wingate of Troop Sc and Woodrow
Little and Eugene Benroth of Troop
50.
Gable has been leader of troops
under three different sponsorships:
The American Legion, the Church of
Christ and the present Troop Sc
sponsored by the First Mennonite
church.
Scouting here has not had an un-
interrupted existence. Many troops
have had to quit scouting activities
because of lack of interest or lead
ership.
Most of the troops here have been
sponsored by the American Legion
but in several instances churches
have attempted to sponsor them.
Summer camping has always been
an important vacation activity of
the scouts. Most of the troops here
have camped at Indian Lake, Lake
Erie or Camp Defiance.
Practically all of the scouts of the
present troops are uniformed. This
was not the case in troops of pre-
vious years with usually only very
small portion of the scouts owning
their own uniforms.
During the first World war the
scouts were kept busy in various
types of service activities. 1t is re.
called, for example, that when ar
army tank was brought to the towr
for demonstration the scouts kept
an all-night patrol around the tank
The troops usually met in the
town hall, the old Legion hall or ir
one of the school buildings.

First Glass scouts at the next court
of honor to be held in Lima during
the month of March. Ten of the
scouts attended Camp Defiance last
summer and received the Blue Rib
bon award.
Troop 56 holds the record for hav-
ing the largest number of Eagle
scouts in the Shawnee area which is
believed to be an all-time record for
the district. The following Shawnee
awards have been given to the troop:
Commissioners Banner, Troop Camp
ing banner.
In addition the troop has received
the following national awards: Boys
Life 100 per cent award; Ten Year
Program award; Troop Budget Seal
Both troops meet every Monday
night of the week, Troop Sc meeting
in the basement of the First Men
MONTE church and Troop 81 meeting
in the Sportsmen's club room in the
town hall.
Bluffton has more than 100 sus
tanning members of the Nationa
Council of Boy Scouts. These are
civic-minded individuals in the com
munity who make annual contribu
tions to the movement and hold mem
bership cards.

More Than 50 Former BlufftOn Scouts
Serving In Uncle Sans Armed Forces

Over so former Bluffton Boy
Scouts are now serving their coun-
try in the armed forces of the ma
ton, it was announced this week by
Karl Gable, Scoutmaster of Troop
No. Sc.
Scoutmaster Gable is keeping
record of all the scouts in the armed
forces and would appreciate knowing
of any additions to be made to the
list.
OF this list Gable has been asso-
ciated with 43 of the scouts now in
the service either as scout leader or
troop member. Several of the pres
ent active scouts of Troop No. Sc
are slated to go into the armed
services in the near future, Gable
said.
SCOUTS IN SERVICE
Millions of former Boy Scouts in
the nation are now serving in the
armed forces. Two-thirds of all the
professional military leaders and 25
per cent of all the selectees have
been scouts, as have been many of
the heroes of the present conflict in
cluding Colin Kelly, John James
Powers, John Bulkeley, Butch
O'Hara and many others.
While scouting is distinctly non
military activity, the work of hard
ening the muscles and strengthening

With two troops, four scoutmast-

ual popularity as both troops are
making plans to celebrate the 33rd

This is the first time in the his

Scoutmaster Karl Gable about four
years ago. Paul Wingate is assist
