Ration Lamb
and Cheeses
Choice Items Again
Require Red Points

WASHINGTON, June 20 -
(P)- Housewives will have to
take their ration books to mar
ket again in buying choice lamb
cuts and soft cheeSes, and the
butcher will take one TO two
more points a pound for beef
steaks and roasts.
The Office of Price Admins
tration, announcing point values
for the period from next Sun
day through July 20, said today
it was necessary 10 put lamb
chops, steaks and roasts back
under rationing because nation
al distribution has not been
equitable. Values aSSig n C d
range from three points pound
for some chuck roasts TO 10
points for loin chops.
The supply of beef steaks and
roaSts will be smaller by - per
cent in July, OPA explained in
hiking the point values TO a rec
ord high, a porterhouSc steak,
for example, will cost ii points
a pound, up two, while a seven
inch-cut standing rib roast goes
from eight TO 10 points a pound.
by increasing the points on
some beef steaks and roasts and
establishing point values on pre-
ferred lamb cuts, we hope 10
even out distribution SO that
more people in more communi-
ties Will get share, limited
though it may be, of the beef
and lamb available, OPA Adj
ministrator Chester Bowl ;
explained. He added that in
some localities il may be days
or even weeks before the sup
ply improves.
The decision TO put points
back on lamb was made, OPA
said, when three out of four of
the Agency's "a district offic-
es reported that choice cuts
were short of demand.
Because return of popular
lamb cuts to the chart is coun-
ter-balanced by a smaller sup
ply of beef, housewives will
continue to get only 80 points a
month for buying meats and
fats. The allotment was go
points a month before all meat
except choice beef was made
ration-free early in May.
All pork, veal and the cheap
er cuts of beef and lamb remain
point-free, and butter and mar
garine continue at IL and two
points a pound, respectively.
Soft cheeses, the so-callec!
perishable varieties including
Swiss and cream, go from a
point-free value to four points
a pound.

Former Slave,
los, Dies at
Home Here

Memories of slavery, planta-
tions and cotton, were awaken
ed in the minds of residents of
this community when the death
Of James Craig, aged los years,
occurred last night. Rev. Craig
passed away at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Maize Bell, 1894
Morse, shortly after he had
whispered family into the ear
of Mrs. Bell that "he felt fine"
upon being asked how he was.
He was born in Orville, Ala,
in August, 1889, at time when
Martin Van Buren, was holding
sway in the White House as a
Democratic Stalwart. He was
born of slave stock and ran
before the hounds as his daugh.
ter expressed it. He loved the
plantation and his master, SO
well in fact, that he adopted his
masters name.
Civil War and its subsequent
liberation Of the slaves made no
different to Craig, for he con-
tinued his work raising cotton,
corn, and cattle for the master"
Later, responding TO an inward
urge, he became a minister and
was ordained into the CarWell
Baptist Missionary Church at
Browns, Alabama.
He married and became the
father Of l6 children, eight of
whom are living. his daughter
Mamie being the fourth from
the youngest. Five years ago he
was brought north from Ala
bama TO pass his remaining
days in rest and quiet in neat,
home, edged by a ranch style
fence almost completely covered
by rambling roses.
Funeral services have not
been completed, but interment
will be at cemetery located at
l3 Mile and Ryan roads.

wind campaign, making a lot OF
speeches and transforming the
country says Medalic. He
has also been advised 10 stay
home and say nothing
After all, look what that
latter policy got him!
The oil American political
ideal of letting the office seek
the man instead Of vice-versa
has been revived by Dewey in a
big way. Right up to the end he
stuck TO the myth that he was
being drafted When 1t became
apparent on the first day Of the
convention that Dewey had
enough delegates TO win and
that he might as we'll quit kid
ding and come on out 10 Chicag go
to take over, he hung back. The
theory was that il wouldn't look
right for him TO start TO Chicago
until he actually had the nomin-
alton in the bag.
If DeWeyS personal appear
ance before. the convention gives
the delegates any kind of big
moment and sends them home
with anything resembling en-
thuiSiasm, il will be the first and
only thrill of the proceedings.
The whole four-day doldrum
was a limp, dishrag goings-on,
right in keeping with the spirit
Of the draft age. The volunteers,
the men Ike Bricker and Dirk
sen who were willing TO serve
their country at such great sacr!-
flee, got no place. The man who
had TO be coaXed got the job.
All that has TO be decided now
is whether draftee Dewey is la
and Al or whether AZ is going
10 stand for fourth term for
Franklin.
TWO SCHOOLS OF THOUGHT
One generally accepted line of
thought has been that if by fall
the liberation of Europe or the
war against Japan or both are
well along, Dewey will stand a
better chance of election be-
cause the "indispensability' OF
Roosevelt to carry on the war
will then have passed, and the
dislike of the New Deal, Plus
the desire for change. can oe
! allowed to run rampant.
/ Some of the politicians at
1 Chicago question the correctness
of that psychology. While agree
ing that the emotional reaction
Of the voters to the war situation
at election time may have a lot
more to do in deciding the cleo
ton than any deep-dish debates
on important issues. 1t is con-
tended that Dewey may have a
better chance of election if the
war is still tough than if it was
well OH lIe way W DtlIlS ONtl'
The reasoning follows this
line. If the war is still on, the
discomfort with Roosevelt and
the New Deal will continue at
their present highs. On this
basis, if the election were to be
held next Tuesday, Dewey
would stand d good chance of
being elected If, however. the
war or part OF it is ended by
late October, Roosevelt will be
the great leader who won ii and
therefore would stand better
chance of being reelected.
Figure it out for yourself.

 NEWS POLICY

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.-(AP) The Office of War Information, with approval of other war agency heads, laid news policy, head ed with the admonition against government officials speculating on when the war will end.
 Next was the suggestion that they discuss only with great care, the probabilities connected with economic developments.
 Public discussions should be en- couraged, it was pointed out.
 Policy statements set out a bit of talk that should be what we know, not what we hope or fear, about such economic collapse or great prosperity at the end of the war"
