McLenlOre Deserts
The Straight Path

only gets you seat In third
class coach, usually between a
woman who has been digging
peat and a man who has been
digging for the woman who has
been digging tor peat.
Half an hour after the train
had left Dublin the customs men
came through. McLemore was
torn between two emotions.
Some Of his friends had told him
that honesty was the best policy
and that the way TO get goods
through was 20 tell the customs
exactly what ne had 20 declare,
Others said he must not do this;
that dishonesty was the best pot
icy and If ne could hide any
thing 90 please hide II.
When the officers entered his
coach. McLemore. who looked
like A Greyhound bus what with
all the goods and chattel he had
stored on his person. smiled al
the officers and said;
I'm an American who went 10
Dublin 10 see the lovely place.
Mr.. De Valera Is a friend OF my
family and they asked me 10 try
90 see him"
What have you 10 declare"
the officer with the mustsche
said
Nothing" SAID McLcmore, as
A ham and three oranges fell
out Of his pocket
As he talked he started she'd
ding things. Stockings fell on
the floor. One pat from the OF
ficcr and the floor was covered
with elastic stockings and cos
metics
HNOU are the only depart
ment store we have ever
inspected" said the officer with
the biggest pair Of hands IN the
world.
They started adding up what
MCLemore owed in duty They
talked in shillines al first, then
in pounds. then in tens of
pounds.
McLemore said he didn't have
that much money. He said these
things didn't belong 10 him but
were pla ed on him by the
enemy.
He told him family was a poor
one and. in an effort 10 gain
mercy he SAID his maternal
grandfather had come from
Dublin and settled in Daytona
Beach. and now eked out liv-
ing running a small eating place
called "Charley's Grill.
No soap. He was frisked from
head 10 foot. He was friSked
again and again. He had 10 pay.
Then the customs men took all
the contraband & 90 d S. They
didn't leave McLemore a thing.
Now he has no friends He is
tlnlShed.
But, he does not despair. He
knows that there is a time COM
ing when the Free State will
get its comeuppance. That II
will come when the war is over
and the Free State is asked
what il did in the fight against
those who wanted 10 destroy de-
cency in the world Even Henry
Wallace would think twice be-
fore guaranteeing a quart of
milk TO A people who didn't feel
strongly enough for the side OF
right 10 bear arms.

CHANGES MADE
TIRE

Three important changes have
been made in the tire rationing
program recently to alleviate the
tire shortage which is becoming
more and more acute, according
to an announcement from the
local ration board office.
These r%evisions, effective Dec.
l are:
l. Redistribution of the Vic
tory tire made from reclaimed
rubber Gas distinguished from
new pre-war and synthetic
tires) from grade I to grade III.
2. Truck tire recapping re-
moved from rationing. Certifi-
Gates are nc longer required for
any recapping service.
8. Branding of "emergency'
passenger tires which were chief
ly recovered from scrap piles is
no longer required. and recap
ping of all branded tires is per-
mitted where the condition of
the carcass warrants it.

MUST COLLECT
MEAT POINTS

Farmers were reminded by To-
cal ration board officials this
week that they must continue to
collect ration points for all ra-
toned meats, including pork,
which they sell to friends,
neghbors, retailers or anyone
else.
Recent reductions in meat
point values and temporary lif-
ting of restrictions on the am
out of pork which a farmer may
deliver to persons living off his
farm do not mean that any ra-
toned meat may now be trans
ferred point free, it was point
ed out .
Unless farmers collect the nee
esSary points from all purchas-
ers, much of this food may find
its way into the black market
and become unavailable for leg
innate consumers. farmers were
warned. Those who are unfam-
liar with current point values
may obtain the LATEST table
from any War Price and Ration
ing board. Poins collected should
be mailed to the farmers board
monthly. together with a simple
report showing meat sales dur
ing the month, it was stated.
