They were panic stricken at the
thought of crossing the ocean in
an unescorted boat as they had
been told that but one boat out Of
IA ever got through, going either
way. The Italians were delighted
to get to come to America and
the Germans were glad that for
them the war was all over.
Jim reiterated the statement
made last week by Rosslyn Rich
ardson who stated that the sold
iers were much exercised over
the Lewis coal strike. He thinks
Mr.. Lewis is due for some I'M
pleasant experiences.
Casablanca is a beautiful new
city-the last word in modern ar
chitecture, built IL years ago by
the French. He thinks it would
be a pleasant place to live and
would like to return there after
the war.
Jim had many narrow escapes
but came out of it with nary a
scratch and in splendid health.
AS a matter of fact. in the half
hundred engagements participant
ed in by his outfit only two of
his squadron have been wounded
and neither of them seriously
enough to hospitalized. He has
been recommended as an instruc-
tor in gunner or radio and also
as a flying cadet. He thinks
he'd like to have a P-38 and
participate in the Pacific area
against the japs.

in Pendleton, Jim found the bus
too slow, so he arrived in Ken

schedule via thumb.
Jim was a guest at the Cham
Der of Commerce luncheon this
noon where he answered ,ques-
tions for more than half an hour.
He told Of many of his expert
ences of England and Africa
where he participated in so COM
bat missions.
He has. five service ribbons, in
dicating action in the several
areas, good conduct medal
(Which he says he rated because
he hadn't been in the guard
house, the airmen's medal for
completing five combat missions,
with nine oak leaf clusters, each
for five additional missions and
the Distinguished Flying Cross.
Replying to questions, Jim said
the Italians were good flyers, es-
pecially in the combat groups, but
that they weren's especially dan
gerous enemies. The German
fighters were. another matter.
They really went after them.
In Africa German prisoners
were surprised at being taken to
Algiers, sBizerte or Casablanca, as
they had been told that those To-
calities were still in German
hands. They were also told that
the japs had sunk the us. navy
and had invaded Casablanca.

Milk Has Gone to War

Have you wondered why cam
ned milk was rationed? The two
main reasons are: !. Our armed
forces and allies need tremendous
quantities Of dried milk, butter,
and cheese. These foods are
highly nutritious and can be ship
ped in a relatively small space.
II. Our civilian population, with
more money to spend and reali-
cation of the Importance of milk in
the daily diet, is consuming more
dairy products per person than
ever before. Because of this, there
is a shortage of fluid milk, and
consequently there won't be an
unlimited supply of canned milk
in the months ahead. for all those
who wish to buy it. Also, the
shortage of tin limits the manu-
facture of cans. Canned milk is
the foundation for the feeding
formulas of many babies; doctors
prescribe it in special diets for
invalids; it is essential for those
who are unable to obtain fresh
milk. Many farmers are in this
class +. they have no milk cows
and are heavy consumers of cam
med milk.
The canned milk point value is
lone red point per pound. No new
points are being issued for the pur-
chase of canned milk. Evaporated
and condensed milk were merely
added to the list of foods already
|rationed with the red stamps in
War Ration Book two. Since
babies and invalids are not large
consumers of meat, points in their
War Ration Book two should be
sufficient for them. Persons re-
quiring additional amounts of milk
for special diets may apply to their
local boards for supplemental ra-
tons. W.. Il
You may buy any number of
|small-size cans whose total weight
lis one pound or less for one point
as long as all the cans are the
same size. i. e. four 4-ounce cans,
or two 6-ounce cans, but not two
|6-ounce and one 4-ounce can, could
be purchased for one point,
If you buy only one 6-ounce can
of milk, it has ration value of
one point. If you buy two 6-ounce
|cans-a total of IL ounces of milk,
they will cost you one point. Each
additional two cans weighing 6
to ounces cost one point.
Each can of milk weighing more
than ounces-regardless Of the
number of cans bought-costs you
one point. n a..

etc. The real cause is lack OF
early home training Parents have
fallen down on their most import

a child is taught fundamental rules
OF right living. the less chance he
has of becoming a juvenile delin-
quent
We read Of an interview with
Mrs. Elizabeth Rickenbacker, the
79-year-old mother of Captain Ed
die Rickenbacker. Mrs. Ricken-
hacker said that as soon as he
was able to understand. he was
taught certain fundamentals. First,
faith in God; second, a sense OF re-
sponsibility toward others; third
self reliance and ability to~look
out for himself. and his own things;
fourth, he always had something
TO do, certain chores which devel-
oped a sense Of citizenship and pub
lie service. His behavior pattern
was formed early in life
How many mothers OF modern
times teach their children these
fundamentals OF right conduct?
Mrs. Rickenbacker was left a wild
ow with seven children when Cap
tain Rickenbacker was Twelve.
How about our modern mothers
taking a lesson from Mrs. Ricken-
