This complicated issue will even
tually be settled right if it is trans
lated into simple terms of family
wellbeing.
soUANDERMANIA by federal
bureaucrats increases the demands
on the income of the family head to
meet the overhead cost of govern
ment. The citizen has no freedom in
taking or rejecting government serv.
ices. He is forced to pay for all of
them whether he wants them or not.

which is available for buying things
at the store. The citizen has freedom
in turning thumbs up or thumbs
down on the products and services
offered by the businessman. Thus,
while economic activity is primarily
in private hands, the customer is the
boss.
But when there is a relative shift
to government controlled activity,
the citizens area of discretion is
narrowed. Thus government spend
ing shrinks individual freedom, and
tends to turn a citizen into mere
minion of the state.
Thus more than mere sordid dol
. lars is entailed in insisting after the
war in prudence and economy by
spenders holding governmental
posts.

A DANGEROUS current habit is
"A developing Of assuming uncriti-
cally that, willy nilly, we will have
super colossal budgets for the federal
government after the war.
Such an attitude of appeasing the
prodigal and wasteful spenders de-
fers the hope of turnabout in the
direction of prudence and common
honesty.
In view of the fact that postwar
fixed charges for debt service, for
meeting obligations to war veterans
and for financing national defense
will in the nature of things be un-
precedentedly high, it behooves the
citizenry to demand that all addl-
tional proposals for current expendi-
lures be submitted to the closest
audit. In view Of the high war
charges, the public welfare will ne
c-ssitate economy in other directions,
lest the citizens be turned into eco
nomic slaves of the state.
Wise words have been uttered by
Lewis A. Dibble, Connecticut manu-
facturer, who said: eff the pay-as-
you-go system is good for the so
million taxed laborers of the nation,
it is imperative for government"
Pointing out further that the $50
a week worker with one child is now
contributing about months salary
to the federal government each year,
Mr.. Dibble significantly said: "Such
heavy taxes demand economy in

WA Urges
Planting More
Fall Gardens

The War Food Administration
today urged the planting of more
fall gardens to help increase the
victory garden harvest by 25 per
cent. VIA recommended the fall
gardens particularly for the South,
where late summer paintings have
long season for growth because
of mild winters.
Such vegetables as lettuce. cab
bage, kale, beets, spinach, turnips,
collards, and carrots may be grown
in fal gardens, VIA said. Because
most of these crops are adapted
for growing in cool weather, they
will provide fresh garden produce
until the ground freezes, VIA said.
In regions where midsummer
has been dry, one of the greatest
difficulties with fall gardens is to
get the seeds to sprout, VIA said.
To overcome this, gardeners are
urged to make a trench about twice
as deep as used in spring planting,
and to water it well. Cover the
seed the same depth as for spring
gardens, and with compost or other
material that will retain moisture.
AS the plants grow, work the soil
toward them gradually so that the
rows are level.

Coast Guard Has
1000 Negroes In
Active Service

With approximately 1000 Negroes
in active service, the United States
Coast Guard was seeking this week
to double the number of Negro
Coast Guardsmen, following the
celebration of the 154th anniver-
sary of that branch of Americas
military forces on August 4.
AS the anniversary was marked
in ceremonies throughout the coun-
try, the Coast Guard had halted re-
cruitment in all of its branches, ex-
cept for the needed Negro recruits.
In this field an active campaign
was being conducted to secure the
voluntary enlistment of LOO Ne
gro youths, II years of age, in the
Stewards Mates branch. Recruit
ing officers pointed out that adj
vancement is rapid in the Coast
Guard and that the 17-year- old
youths would man battle stations
and get real crack at the enemy.
The Coast Guard was founded
August 4, 1890, by Alexander Ham
ilton, then Secretary of the Treas
ury. Except for wartime emergen-
cies, when it is under the Navy
Department, the Coast Guard is I'M
der supervision of the Treasury De-
partment.
Members of the Coast Guard
have performed heroically in this
war, manning invasion craft on ev-
cry front, accompanying conveys
into dangerous waters, as well as
patrolling the coastal waters of
continental United States. But des-
pite the danger of their work, there
have been only 10 casualties among
the Negro personnel of the Coast
Guard-9 dead and 1 missing.
Negro Coast Guardsmen have re-
ceived great recognition in the
present war. Eight Negroes have
been decorated for heroism. One
1t. Clarence Samuels, is in COM
mand of Coast Guard vessel, and
there are two other Negro COM
missioned officers and 965 non
commissioned officers in the SER
vice.
Mississippi has 80 Negroes en-
rolled in the Coast Guard.

Up Clearing House
At Cherbourg

CHERBOUGH, France - An all
Negro quartermaster unit, in which
is Pfc. Henry d. Phillips, son of

ing treasure trove of Wehrmacht
ordnance and other supplies for u.
S. Army Salvage crews.
The cleanup of the city began
before the last Germans has sur
rendered. Endless catacombs of
underground tunnels, a hilltop fort
which resembles Christophe's CT
tadel in Haiti, mazes of trenches
and pillboxes, houses occupied by
the Boche and-even the country
side around Cherbough-yie1ded
vast stores of equipment.
Among small arms being pro-
cessed through the salvage clearn-
ing hourse are Japanese and Italian
weapons, Russian machine guns,
all the Nazi firearms, and even
guns from American aircraft. There
are tons of helmets, Dutch style
wooden shoes, hobnailed Nazi
boots, blankets, gas masks, uni
forms, chinaware, and hundreds of
other items.
Pfc. Phillips is a graduate of La
nier high school, and was popular
in Jackson's younger set.
