Ration Of Clothes
Avoided at Least
For Little While

WASHINGTON, May q CUPl-
Ratloning of clothing and textile
products appeared today to have
been avoided, at least fr l943, pro-
vided the public buys sensibly.
Passing of the immediate threat
was disclosed following a meeting
among retail clothiers' representa-
ives, War Production Board Chair
nan Donald M. Nelson and Arthur
d. Whiteside, chief of WPB's Office
cf civilian requirements.
BLUE PRINT
A blue print was not worked out
and hard-and-fas decisions were
not made. But, an official said, q
general plan OF action was tacitly
agreed upon which was described as
having brought much better tone
to the situation"
The one inescapable fact, it was
said, is that there will be fewer
textile products for the remainder
OF the war. This, an official said,
must be accepted by civilians. Once
accepted By them, he said, they
have one Of two choices:
/. Buy sensibly and not as they
did in the good old days
2. Struggle with the complexities
Of more rigid controls.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

The Golden Text IN the Sunday
lesson sermon Oh Soul and Body
in all branches of The Mother
Church, The First Church of Christ,
in Boston, is selected from
II Corinthians: I'VE all, with open
face beholding as in a glass the
glory of the Lord are changed into
the same image from glory to glory,
rsen as by the Spirit of the LORD.
which of you by taking thought
can add one :ubit unto his stature?
And VIII take ye thought for raj
ment?' Thus did Jesus question his
listeners in a Lesson-Se mon pas
Consider the lilies of the field,
how they grow; they toll not, nei-
ther do they spin: And yet I say
unto you, That even Solomon in all
his glory was not arrayed like one
of these Therefore take no
thought, saying, What shall we eat?
or, What shall we drink? or, Where
Withal shall we be clothed? . But
seek ye first the kingdom of God,
and his righteousness; and all these
things shall be added unto you"
On this subject Mary Baker Eddy
writes in Science and Health Wits
Key to the Sc.iptl"es:' - The divine
Mind, which forl..s the bud and
blossom, will care for the human
body even as it clothes the lily
but let no mortal interfere with
Gods government by thrusting in
the laws of erring, human con-
ceCtS"

WE'RE IN TT FOR ALL WE'VE GOT!

Last month witnessed an event heavy with signifi- canoe In many ways it determined political and mili- tary events both the home and battlefrons It is likely to have profound interest the length of the war, which involves the sacrifice of men, property and perhaps the future form of government.
 The government had put forth request that the in- dividual citizens of the United States make volun- tary investment of $5oO0 00O0OO the largest program ever financed in the history of the world
 The response spelled out the to questions in the minds of people, those of our Allies, and most important of all in the minds of enemies.
 The pledge of dollars is the token of our deter imitation to win. It from the earnest labor of today and also from the savings of yesterday This voluntary march of dollars will do more to hang crepe the morale of the Nazi and Jap and more "ickly than the drafting of millions more of fla thers and sons.
 We are Americans and boast to the world of our freedoms and try to show the way to the unhappy peoples of other nations in setting up freedoms and voluntary methods against disciplnes and dcta- toral compulsion.
 News that there is substitute for such morale building event, destructive of enemy morale, than the announcement that the American people their will and strength in this to the finish, to go forward with resolution to build better postwar world in true traditions of free peoples.

NEW ALASKA STAR LODESTAR PLANE ARRIVES IN TOWN

Alaska Star Airlines' new Lockheed-Vega Lodestar plane flew into Fairbanks recently from Los Angeles with Avery Black, veteran Lockheed pilot at the controls and H. W. Robinson, vice-president and general man. ager, and his bride as passengers, together with Eugene Lawrnce, special mechanic, and C. E. Goza, pilot who has joined the Alaska Star staff in Alaska.
 It didn't stay long on its maid en voyage, but took off about 2 p. m. for Anchorage. While it's run is still indefinite, Manager Robinson said it will probably be used between Anchorage and Juneau, Fairbanks and White horse and Fairbanks and Kodiak. Since its speed is twice that of any other plane in the Star fleet it is capable of. covering all of these runs in a single day.
 The new plane is the latest type used by airlines all over the world, according to Pilot Black, who has more than 15,000 hours to his credit with the Lockheed Pega people. It is the fastest com mercia1 plane in the world, and the largest owned by any strict ly Alaska company. With a seat ing capacity of IA passengers it has a cruising speed of over 200 miles per hour.
 Manager Robinson stated that the new plane can fly at an alti- tude of from 22,0O0 to 23,000 feet, and that it can fly 10000 feet with only one of its two engines running. Important from a safe ty standpoint, it can take off with only one engine. One engine can be stopped in midair due to the latest type of full-feather propellors with which the plane

ing our energy from that which is around us. We live mentally by the thinking we do in our work, with our friends, in our reading. But what about God? Some just leave God out of their diet, and try to live aboundant lives without spiritual vitamins, and they find that life becomes drab and common. They have conflicting desires and purposes within and they find the world without is also a sort of mean ingless madhouse. Those who try to shortcut God out of their lives find the real dynamo for aboundant living has been dis connected.
 Is there a God? Ask those who claim there isn't a God. Look at the things they stand for. Look at them when they have to en- dure and as Paul says, "still stand" The surest proof that there is a God is to see man who has become detached from him.
 Professor Hooking, speaking as a philosopher, says, Man comes up to a certain point and then finds he hasn't resources in him. self to complete. himself, so he remains incomplete and frustrat- ed. Incomplete living, frustrated living, short5cirduited living is the ,resplt that. naturally follows one who does riot believe there is a God.
 An atheist is a man "who has no invisible means of support. A man who has no invisible means of support is always fall ing. His foundations are shaky. He may look sturdy and strong but his house is built on sand so when the rains ,ome and the winds blow and beat upon that house it falls.
 Is there a God? There had bet ter be, for if man is left to his own devices he finds life turn ing sour in his mouth. He tries to pull himself up by his own bootstraps and becomes discour- aged and frustrated.
 Is there a God? Of course there is God and we must be- lieve in Him if we would live the aboundant, full, and free life.

thing the people of one nation can
never take from the people of an
other is scorn.
The Spanish has got word for
what us folks at home hope you're
goin' to be like whenever you're
away from home. The word is
symtatico. An it don't mean SYM
pathy. 1t means havin' respect
an understandin' for the other
fellows ideas an ways.
i'll thought you boys didn't know
how to behave, I wouldn't bother to
write you this letter. An it wouldn't
do any good anyway. But me an
Jake Bulls know you by the hum
dreds as you've come through here
durin' your trainin' camp days. We
never had no trouble with you over
your whoopee-makin' or even when
you poked fun at us or your fellows
or some of the other customers. We
knew you were syn.botieo. An that
made all the difference.
guess I've got a lot of nerve
stayin' at home an askin' you boys
to do all of the fightin' an still be
examples of the decency an the self
respect that shows up so strong all
over America. But, son, it's your
world. You've got to come back an
live in it an get along with the other
nations after the war.
So have all the fun you can
squeeze out of your fightin' time.
But don't forget to kind of build us
reputation, so later on when we try

of you an really believe we mean it.

nobody likes to have aimed at him.
But can sure see plenty of trouble
ahead if, as Gabe told me, a lot of
the boys are actin like him.
Well. here's what l wrote him:

uniform tellin' me how scornful you
was of the Nazis calm themselves

about the way the German soldiers
was treatin' the people of the coun-

Well, l hope you boys amt get

signs of peace, but we can.
An maybe you're helpin' Europe
lick the Nazis, but teachin' 'em to
dislike us at the same time.
For years to come the people IN
all the countries you fellows is in
are goin' to think of America as
