McDaniel and Spike Jones and his City Slickers.
 Going of the beaten path, the picture has Bette Davis singing a spicy speciality number called They're Either Too Young or Too Old" and doing a jitterbug routine into the bargain; Ida Lupino, Olivia de Havilland and George To- bias break out into boogie-woogie dance; Ann Sheridan leads a line-u of chorus cuties in a boudoir num- Der called Love Isn't Born, It's Made; John Garfield mugs his way through a sing-song hot seat song and-recitation act, and all the other stars do their stint for this all-star production.
 The cast not only includes these stars but the prdoucer and director of the picture themselves, Mark Hell lniger and David Butler. For over- flowing good measure there are the Ten Lucky Stars, a picture team of dancers; the Dormitory Dolls, an- other group of ten; Las EstrellitaS, ten Latin American beauties; not to mention anything about the 148 showgirls who adorn the various production numbers.

HOME FRONT 20 REC gSsd = Manpower Officials Expect Registration of Women
By ANN sTEvICK NEA Htaf1 Cnrresnnnden

Washington, Sept. 2l--It is almost certain that women will be included in any national labor registration which comes forth, according to Law- renee Appley, Executive Director of the War Manpower Commission.
 If women should not be called in the first sign-up, their resigtra- ton would follow very shortly, Mfr. Appley said. The age-lirnit for wonl- en probably would be low, at least to start with, and exemptions liberal. Britain has just pushed her age limit for registering women up to ~. NEW BROOMS
 Old brooms will have to sweep clean next year. With Q short crop and increased military and indus trial users the civilian broom supply will be only about half the normal number. The shortage came about from an unfavorable season, and from efforts to urge growers to plant more essential food and oil crops such as soybears, peanuts and flax. After all, most people would rather have food even if 1t involves making brooms go twice as far. The Office of Price Administration has recently put new high ceilings on broom corn at the producer level.

Rubber ApIenty;
Labor Shortage
Cuts Tire Output
s. Pictorlal Reyiewl

The rubber crisis has been
licked but. IN rs place. The United
States faces a very serious tire
crisis. members Of the Economic
Cub OF Detroit were told by Har-
vey <. FireStone Jr, president OF
tao FmcStone Tire and Rubber Co.
Speaking a. the Book-Cadlllac
Hotel he announced that by the
end OF the year. we would have
stock pile Of 100000 tons of
rubber and our production Of syn
thetc rubber would he adequate

But there's fabric short

plenty of cotton hut insufficient

problems in the coming year
include the creation of more
tire-making factories, more ma
ehinery and more trained man

Firestone praised the speed with
which the StockplleS were built
up prior 10 the war

lie gave credit for farSighted
preparation 10 his father founder
Of the FireStone company, Henry
Ford and Thomas Edison.
Much Of the present tire prob
lem arises from the fact that
military tires take more materials
snd labor than civilian tires. he
explained. adding that the aver
age weight of tires produced prior
10 the war was 35 pounds, COM
pared with So pounds today.
Synthetic passenger tires are
just about az good as crude"
ne said. However. truck tires
present a problem because syn
thetie rubber builds up more
heat. RayOn and nylon cords
are helping solve this, though"
POSTWAR INDUSTRY
'T look forward TO n postwar
synthetic ruber industry. capa-
BILE Of maintaining itself without
tariff protection" he said.
THAT industry will save mo-
florists millions by insuring
against gyrating crude prices

Imperial Valley press., 1943-03-10

Be practical, is the advice of The
experts, and raise some chickens as
insurance against the meat and ege
shortage even the most optimistic
American admits is in the offing.
Countless Imperial Valley resi-
dents took this advise before it was
given and ALREADY have flourishing
poultry projects TO augment Their
food supply IN fact, the Junior Red
Cross in FL Centre, as one OF its
war time projects, is advocating a
dozen chickens for every backyard
IN the city. Since they usually get
what they want, il won't be long
before chickens viii be star boarders
from here to there.
Raising chickens is the most
sensible thing q person can do now. y
declared Assistant Farm Advisor
Lee Landernan. the most enthus-
iastic poultry project advocator in
the county. Even small children
can raise chickens successfully right
in their own backyardS. 1t is so
simple and the returns and advan-
tages are so great.
HAVE PAMPHLETS
We have pamphlets in the farm
advisors office in the court house
basement which tell exactly how to
raise chickens. These pamphlets
were prepared by experts after care
ful study and experimenting. They
are free TO the public and are OF
great value TO the novice in the
poultry business. l recommend that
everyone study these pamphlets be-
fore starting TO raise a flock
A flock of u to Is hens will pro-
vide an adequate supply of eggs for
the average family. The pamphlets
tell exactly how TO care for the flock
and how TO get the maximum egg
production.
LISTS COSTS
1t costs Is to l6 cents each for
baby chickens. II costs three cents
for each pound of feed and it takes
a pound of feed a week for each
bird for the first II weeks. 1t takes
about seven or eight cents to pro-
vide equipment and electric energy
to raise each bird Thus it costs
about 60 cents TO IS cents each to
raise n baby chicken to a three
pound fryer.
So you see the initial cost is not
great, especially in the face of the
gloomy forecasts Of a meatleSS, or
practically meatless, nation in times
to come.
Landerman is q great advocator
Of heated brooderS for the baby
chickens. He thinks the tempera-
,ture in a brooder should be 95 de-
erees for the first week with the
temperature decreased TO 80 degrees
when the chickens are 10 days old
The heat then should be kept at
85 10 80 degrees until the chickens
are four weeks old.

These temperatures should be
followed even in the summer" Lam

In the light of recent developments in the Pa
cfic heater the speech made this week by Jap Gen.
eral Sato Chief of the Bureau Of Military Affairs,
that preparations for Japanese air offensive against
the American Continent have been completed, may
not be taken as idle chatter
Throughout the winter the enemy across the sea
has Undertaken large offensives and has had
much time to put its war machine in order for OPP
erations this spring and summer
~ Japan, itself has been free from any form of
attack except that of sniping by submarines The
valuable raw materials for war wrested from the
British, Dutch and Americans in the conquest of
last year have probably been put to good use
throughout the winter months. 1t is certain that
the Japs have been building many airplanes.
In the Southwest Pacific, Japan's sea and air
power has been largely concentrated at Rabaul on
New Britain, and other bases north of the Solomons,
protective barrier for the eastern flank of her
territory conquered last spring
Strong forces also being rapidly built up in

from Kiska closer to Atu where the enemy is build

CONGREsS-BAITING DOESN'T
'e PAY

rI
And as a further lesson to any
one who dares ruffle the feathers
|of Congressman, or even remotely
insinuate that he does not have a
lily white soul, here. is, what has
happened to a key Eco witness,
Edward j. Lord of Orlando, Fla
When Lord was manager of Sta
ton WALB in Albany, Ga, he was
incensed at Cox's activities, and
later appeared as witness before
the FEC. While on the witness
stand, DeLacey Allen, attorney fol
WALB, threatened him with GRIM
final prosecution if he proceeded
with his testimony The trial ex-
aminer Immediately called Allen
down for trying to intimidate a
witness, and Lord proceeded to
testify.
Since then DeLacey Aliens threat
has materialized. Lord has been in
dicted by Georgia grand jury OF,
the charge of "larcency from a
house" This is based on the fact
that Lord copied about ID docu-
ments in the files of WALB per-
tanning to Congressman Cox's ac-
tivities, and also removed one orr
