IRON General Bradley, leading the
Invasion ground forces, right
through every rank, American men now
face a brutal, desperate, able enemy.
For this invasion has only begun-be-
fore our fighters lies a hard and bloody
task, one that demands all their courage,
backed by all your faith in their ulti-
mate victory.
That faith will be tested many times
in this invasion-in grim struggles, set
backs, possibly ever temporary defeats.
1t will be up to you to remember that
Telegraf. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1909-1951, 1944-06-30

early victories usually only mean more
savage opposition from a foe made more
bitter, more ruthless as the shadow of
his doom grows larger-up % you to
keep that faith in days and nights of
gloom as we'll as in hours of triumph.
There is little that you can do to
show that you realize what they must
face, perhaps for many months. But one
thing you can do-back the attack with
every dollar you can spare! Let the
Bonds you buy in this greatest of Drives
be the measure of your belief in their
ultimate victory!

OPA HIGHLIGHTS

The circle of ration currency
flow" will be closed tightly upoA
the establishment of new Regional
Notification Centers now being put
into operation, Maryland OPA Off
Gals announce. Coupans are shipped
from the plants where they are print
ed to regional distribution centers
in the eight regions. From these cen
lers they flow out to $500 local
boards and are finally dispersed
among 13O,0OO,O0O citizens. The flow
back and recommendation begins
when consumers exchange them for
rationed goods at the retail level;
continues upward from retailer to
wholesaler and finally to some $4,000
ration banks. Under the new plan,
one more step brings all coupons
back into the hands of OPA at the
eight regional centers for verification
and final destruction. The center for
this region is in New York City.
At all of these centers ration cou-
pons deposited in their ration bank
accounts by dealers in rationed COM
modities will be inspected for amount
and validity and tested for counter
feits and other indications of Black
Market operations.
The appointment of Virgil Van
Street to the position of Maryland
Ration Banking Representative of
the State OPA has been announced.

FORESTS ENTER AMERICAN
HOMES

When a man goes home after the
from the faucet, picks up his even
ing paper and settles for few mo-
ments of rest in an easy chair, he
has, without thinking of the matter,
made three personal contacts with
the nation's-and his-"forest prob
lem" Municipal water supplies are
intimately tied up with forests as
the ultimate source for catching,
holding, and releasing water. The
newsprint is a manufactured wood
product, as is the chair.
These are simple facts of everyday
life which the Forest Service cites in
Some Plain Facts About The For
ests," just issued for free distribu-
ton as Miscellaneous Publication 543
by the u S. Department of Agricul-
ture. The 24page pamphlet is a
frank effort by the Forest Service to
enlist public interest in the program
of forest conservation and manage
ment which the forest specialists are
convinced is necessary if the forests
are to continue to supply the Nation.
The average citizen has direct inter
est in the welfare of the forests, and
this pamphlet tells the story and
states the case in II sections, includ-
ing a final two paragrashp on the
role of the forests in postwar en-
ployment.
Some of the day-to-day contacts of
the citizen with the forests are list
ed. Most American homes are built
of wood all have some wood in their
construction Furniture, books, mag
azines, radio cabinets, baseball bats,
rolling pins, turpentine for paints,
and rosin for soaps are products of
the forest. Plastics, rayon, sausage
castings and Photographic film are
some of the newer products made
from wood. Forest products paid the
third largest freight bill before the
war And railroad lines are laid on
wooden ties. More than 10000 pro-
ducts of wood have been listed, and
wood enters into the manufacture,
processing, or delivery of practically
all other products. Uses for wood
are increasing.

SEVEN STATES JOIN IN LABOR
HUNT

Six Atlantic Coast States, along
with Maryland, have accepted the
plan for recruitment of migrant la
Dor as adopted by representatives OF
the States at a meeting at Raleigh,
North Carolina, on May 26. The
States which have approved the
agreement to exchange migrant
workers are Delaware, Florida, North
Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia and
West Virginia.
Under this agreement, patterned
after a similar pact initiated last
year by Governor O'Conor to secure
labor for crop harvesting and food
processing in Maryland, Governors of
the States have agreed to cooperate
with War Manpower and United
States Employment Services officials
to secure am adequate supply of mi
grant labor to take care of crop har-
vesting needs in the various States.
Maryland's representative at the
Raleigh meeting, DR.. 7. B. Symons,
Agricultural Extension Bure u ,
stressed Maryland'S need OF l4,UOO
additional workers to take care of
the harvesting of tomatoes, beans
and other crops, as well as to help
in the canning of these essential
foods A great portion of the packs
already are earmarked for the Arm
ed Forces of the United States.
Officials of the Council Of State
Governments are working with State
Governors and Federal agencies to
make available the fullest supply of
out-of-state labor for use where it
can be most helpful. To accommodate
the workers from out of State, Mary
land has an emergency housing fund
of $4,000 which is to be allotted UNI
der direction of the Council of De-
tense for temporary housing wherev-
er needed, Governor O'Conor said.

North East, Md
Dear Mr.. Editor:
A timely warning a word to the
wise should be sufficient.
Poverty is like school, it is the
best kind of training But that train
ing isn't useful till you graduate, and
you are never on the road to gradu-
alton until the big bad Wolfe is
knocking at your door. When it is
showing, blowing and the the cold
and wintery winds is bowling. So
just as sure as this is summer we
are going to have a winter, and it is
now time for all delinquents to heed
this warning by laying something
away for winter. And to those who
do not heed this warning it would be
well to allow them to graduate next
winter But here comes relief, the
Welfare Board preventing this class
from getting the proper schooling. So
they have not learned anything from
their poverty and training simply
because they were not compelled to
graduate and l deem it unwise to
encourage this delinquency in a land
of plenty where milk and honey
flows, with opportunities for all.
remain very truly yours.

OLD MEN MAKE THE WARS

"Old men make the wars, and
young men have to fight them. Then
the old. men make the peace-and
more mistakes"
This was one of the significant
statements made by Roger j. White
ford, prominent Washington attorney
in the Commencement address to Is 5
land graduating class. Title of his adj
dress was "My Generation Speaks to
You"
Mr.. Whiteford declared that no
man can speak for his own genera
ton, that this must be done by his
torians, The outstanding contribution
of his organization, he said, was pow
er-pweo rof organized capital, or
ganized labor, organized charities,
organized educational institutions.
Calling attention to the misuse of
power, Mr. Whiteford asserted that
his generation had lost ground spirit
ually. "Our determination to accom-
plish things economic and social has
crowded out the spiritual qualities
men and women must possess for
successful living" he said.
Governmental power also has been
abused, according to the speaker.
Now our government is ruled for
the most part by pressure groups,
and far too few voters go to the bal
lot box because they want the best
kind of government" he said. In
stead, he declared, they go seeking
special advantages that will benefit
themselves or their group.
THAT kind of government is going
to destroy this country, as it destroy
ed France, unless it is changed. This
is real challenge to America s
young men and women" Mr.. White
ford continued.
Terrible as this war is" he said,
Il have the feeling that millions of
young men will come back from it
better citizens. Their coming will be
a second invasion. The dross will
have been SKINNED off, and a metal
of fine, pure citizenship will remain. F."

GASOLINE COUPON COUNTER
FEITERS CAUGHT

Investigators of the Maryland OPA
uncovered a new angle in the count
erfeiting racket when spurious A-1O
coupons were picked up to the value
of many thousands of gallons of gas
oline. This is the first time the rack
eteers have introduced counterfeit
"A" rations, so far as the State au-
thorities know. Speaking of counter
feiting and the Black Market drain
of 100000 gallons per week, the
State Director again urged consum-
ers to exercise unrelenting vigilance
against unnecessary use of this vital
war material.
Reckless driving, non-essential
driving, or using gasoline purchased
with Black Market coupons are sab
otaging the war effort said Mr..
Mccormick. Remember there is no
Black Market gasolinei Every gallon
so purchased is stolen from others
whose needs are urgent. After all
that has been said concerning the
crying need for the utmost conserva-
ton of gasoline and rubber as well,
certainly no citizen OF Maryland need
be reminded of his responsibility to
help kill the Black Market

Congress passed original legisla-

version, before it packed political
bags for a vacation. The, bill provid-
ed for speedy liquidation of contracts
essential financing and termination
of inventories. The price control
agreement by Congress extends the
law IL months, which is considered
a long enough period to iron out all
troubles and get private industry
ION its own" once again. Of course,
there will be many situations to iron
out--but if the people of this coun-
try get out of the war half as fast
as they were swept into it-then
We'll be lucky!
