supplies indicate the restoration Of
point values on d number of canned
vegetables that have been rationed
in the past The exact date is un-
predictable, but civilians should be
aware the present point holiday on
canned vegetables is only tempor-
ary."
Florence Glenn, nome uemonStra-
ton agent, gives this quotation from
a recent report on the nations food
situation by the War Food Admin
istration TO prove the Importance
of home food preservation this
summer She outlines the following
points to show the need for more
home food production and pro-
ceSsing this year:
Civilian supply of the principal
canned vegetables for the year be-
ginning July l, 1914, is expected to
be 20 per cent smaller than for the
year beginning July l, l943.
Civilians may expect IS per cent
less of vegetable juices.
Point values were removed from
most canned vegetables because the
l943 supply was sufficient to last
until the new pack. This helped TO
move inventories and help Gamers
prepare for the new crops and
greatly increased military require
mentS.
War requirements for the year
beginning July are 10 per cent
higher than for the current year.

Rotary Leader
Stresses Need
To Eye Freedom

America is losing its freedom.
and RotarianS must be in the front
line of battle TO maintain this free
dom for future generations
So declared Milton L. Chapman,
governor of the l08th district of
Rotary. International. in a personal
meeting with the El Centro Rotary
club committeeman and directors
which preceded the regular Thurs
day luncheon at which he was the
main speaker.
In addressing the main meeting
as well as in the executive session,
Chapman hammered home the
theory that more than ever before,
RotariarS must put into concrete
form the organization motto. Ser
vice Before Self.
GIVEN BY FOREFATHERS
The American Freed oms were
given US by our forefathers 10
years ago, who could not, them
selves, expect to reap the benefits
of their efforts" he stressed. They
were unselfish. We of the past $50
years have received the reward OF
their efforts.
To-day. with those American
freedoms being drained away. it is
our turn to battle for their re-eS-
tablishment, so that future genera
tions can enjoy that which, up until
now. we have been privileged to
enjoy
Chapman pointed with fear to
the increasing delinquency among
youth. the decreasing personal free
domS, the increased governmental
controls over individuals and econ
omy. the stepped-up control of la
Dor leaders over workers.
MUST EDUCATE YOUTH
We must combat these things
with &c uCation." he declared. Our
youth have grown up knowing only
this kind of political philosophy.
They have not known the former
and original American way which
made this country what it is Like
the Nazi youth who knew cnly the
Nazi philosophy and accordingly
believed in it. our youth may learn
to believe only the kind of American
theory as is currently being devel-
oped."
He urged all RotarianS to follow
tie ideal of serving the people first.
