OGDEN, Utah - Housewives
and career girls, clubwomen and
high school students, lawyers,
bankers, business men, and 9TH
or Ogdenites from all walks of
life have rallied TO Uncle Sam S
need for food and more food, by
volunteering for work with the
Save the Foods for Victory
force, modified to prevent
spoilage of 10000 acres of fruit
and vegetable crops in this area.
This citizen Crop Corps ac-
copied the burden of harvesting
and canning when it became APP
parent that the usual field and
factory workers were employed
in either the fighting or the war
production forces and were no
longer available for work on the
Food Front "
Encouraged by a trophy offer
ed by the American Can Com
pany Tor the greatest number OF
man-hours spent in the crop pro-
gram. various civic organizations
periodically responded 10 APP
peals for service made in the in
Itial rally by such prominent To-
cal leaders as Gov Herbert b

Commerce George Lowe, presi-

Association, and Mrs William

ment Service, responsible for re-
cruiting labor in the area, pledg-

at the head of each unit, in
school BUSES to pick the sweet
cherry crop, the first to be har-
vested by the Crop Corps The
sour cherries, peaches, between
$4,000 and 10000 tons of april
cots and more than 10000 acres
of tomatoes will also be harvest
ed by Ogden's victory-minded
citizens.
Before winter, this white col
lar crop corps will have helped
TO produce approximately 4,500,-
600 cases of canned peas, toma-
toes, beans, beets and other veg
etables and about 10000 cases
Of cherries, apric and
peaches.
Mothers of small children
were able TO participate in the
program through the combined
action of the Ogden school sys-
tenn and the federal government
which resulted in the establish
ing of day nurseries, six days
week from $50 in the morning
until 6:3O at night. The housing
problem was taken care Of by the
opening of two CCC camps for
the convenience OF workers liv-
ing at a distance from the agri-
cultural area.
These volunteer work ers,
pledged themselves not only 10
work in the fields and canneries
but also in the can-making
plants, feel that, in cooperating
TO save and preserve Ogden's
crops, they have set a mark for
American communities 10 shoot

Milford, Friday, November ), 194S

GOVERNOR WALTER w. BA'
CON has expressed his apprecia'
tion to the citizens of Delaware
who have cooperated in all phases
of civilian defense since the das-
tardly attack at Pearl Harbor. In
conversation with the writer a few
days ago he stressed this appre-
citation, and voiced his approval of
the dimout relaxation which the
Army officials have seen fit to make
in Kent and Sussex counties. Gov
ernor Bacon believes that the re-
Taxation of dimout regulations III
the coastal cities of the United
States must not lead anyone to be-
lieve that the Office of Civilian De-
fense will wind up its business. AS
a matter of fact OCD has never had
anything TO do with dimOuts, except
in few communities where some
civilian defense workers have vol
unteered to help out during the
light-shaded periods.
Blackouts are a different matter,
for here the air wardens will con-
tinue to blow their whistles. see
that lights are doused and chase
people off the streets. This is part
of the regular protection phase of
the OCD, which is its principal ac-
tivity. Under the protection phase
come the volunteer wardens, auXil-
larry police. rescue squads. emer-
gency medical services. and so on.
These function with great efticien-
cy in fires. floods. and all of the
customary emergencies with which
a community must cOpe-especial-
ly the larger cities.
Our Governor expresses the hope
that these activities will continue
and that their helpful and useful
work will be kept at high state
of efficiency 1t is to these latter
workers that he has recently eX-
pressed his thanks for their many
sacrifices during the war period.

. WHEN THE LIGHTS came on
again along the coastal areas OF
the nation on Monday evening
surely a silent prayer was in the
heart of every father and mother
sister and brother. wife and sweet
heart of service men now away on
the dangerous mission of licking
the enemy. No more welcome sight
has been noticed in Milford in
years than the wonderful lighting
of our streets after long months OF
almost total darkness. 1t was with
feelings of hope that our citizens
again walked the streets, and with
the thought that maybe things are
better in our war effort; leaving a
real belief that possibly the cor
ner has been turned and that a ris-
ing tide of power will soon engulf
the Boche and Jap.
1t was heatening to note that the
request for elimination of adver-
tising signs for the present was
widely adhered to. In Milford on
Monday night only three violations
of this request were noted on our
main business section-a liquor
store. a drug store and a jewelry
store. These infringements were
probably more the acts of improp-
er information than of deliberate
desire to violate the requested dous-
ing of such devices during the pres
ent coal emergency. 1t is to be
hoped that it will not be necessary
to again order the dimouts along
our coastal areas; but if such a
necessity should arise residents of
Kent and Sussex counties will i'm
mediately put the orders into ef-
feet.

Message To Congressman

John c. VESSEL made an able plea for the
Red Cross Sanitorum before the KiWanis club
yesterday, setting forth it's present situation
as result of bomber base contraction prac-
ticaly at it door, and what seems to offer
the most likely means Of relief-aid from our
congressional delegation.
He explained that Senators Bailey and Rey-
nolds and Representative Clark have been
asked to help secure compensation from the
another location might be bought and with
additional financial assistance from the city
and the county this being essentially a joint
institution new buildings erected and h e
service of the sanitorium continued.
He urged the Kiwanis club to send mes
sages to these members of congress endorsing
the proposal and soliciting their best offices
in its behalf. Naturally this action was taken
by unanimous vote. But there is something
the public can do to supplement the Kiwanis
club and all other organizations participating
in the effort. 1t is to send letters to Messers.
Bailey, Reynolds and Clark in great volume.
so that when they present the sanitoriun's s
case to the War department they will have
such mass of evidence of public SUPPORT
that the Army must consent to give the san-
torium a square deal-something it is not
getting now.
1t had been hoped that the Army would
take over the sanitorium as a nucleus for
the bomber base hospital but the proposal
was rejected on the score that it was not large
enough or adequately equipped The Army
was well within its rights in so deciding. But
IN view of the fact that the sanitorium has
oeen despoiled by the Army of all that made
1t refuge for victims of tuberculosis it is
only fair and just to expect the Army to make
reparation at least to the extent of paying a
falr price for the property. The unfortunates
Who have contracted tuberculosis and whose
only hope of ever returning to normal activ-
ltles lies in the sanitorium and its proved
efficiency deserve this much consideration.
