Just as much home canned
food is needed in this year Of
war as during last year. But
the 1914 emphasis is on practi-
cal canning.
!. Put up only fresh fruits
and vegetables which are not
more than two hours from gar
den to can.
2. What does your family
like? Can only those foods
which your family will eat with
pleasure. Food left uneaten on
the shelves is food wasted.
3. Budget your canning. How
many jars Of fruits and vege-
tables will your family norm
ally consume before next years
canning season? When you have
estimated the capacity of your
family, estimate how many
bushels of each kind of fruit
and vegetable you will need for
this years canning program.
A. Plan to can the most nour-
ishing fruits and vegetables
which are not likely to be avail
able the year round in your To-
cal markets, such as tomatoes.
snap beans, lima beans, peas
and corn. Above all, can lots of
tomatoes. They are a good
source of vitamin c and also
add variety to winter meals.
5. Follow this wartime rule
first put up the really nourish-
ing foods, then, if your time, SUI
gar and dollar budget permits,
can the taste-tempters such as
relishes, jellies, jams and pre-
serves.
The following tables will help
you figure yield of canned food
from fresh.

Anito Marie Awaits Daddy
Who She Has Never Seen

When Master Sergeant John
A. Buckles steps off the train
bringing him home from many
long months of arduous overseas
duty. he will be greeted by his
wife, Genevieve, and a brand
new member of his family
whom he has never seen. The
new official greeter" is his II
month-old daughter, Anita Mar
lie, who bears her mothers hazel
eyes, but her fathers medium
brown hair.
You see, Sergt. Buckles has
been across for nearly two
years keeping those P-38 fight
ers in action through the sunny
skies of Italy, though contrary
to common belief, and perhaps
the chambers of commerce in
Italy. the skies, are not always
sunny.
And when they pour forth their
accumulated torrents Of rain
they make the lives of the
ground men, and Sergt. Buckles
falls in that category, one of
hardship and near-torture for
il is their duty to keep the
planes under their charge in
perfect working order. And an
other term for working order IS
fighting order.
1t was this assiduity to duty
that won for him the Good Con-
duct Medal, and also the blue

even though we have a victory
on the battle field if we do not

In Germany boys are all con-
ditioned to be soldiers and to
die for Hitler, while girls are
trained for the sole purpose Of
mothering children who will be
part of the same system. These
facts Gregor Ziemer, former
newspaper correspondent in

The problem the world will
face when the democratic
powers achieve a final victory
on the battlefields will be in
part that of a generation Of
youth trained fanatically for
death and conquest. Thus Hit

peace even though he loses the
war on the battlefront.

if we followed such a negative

In the competition with the
totalitarian nations, we can
train our youth along demo-

way. We can support our
youth serving organizations
like the ScOuts-which our
children join because they
want to join. In this way we
can supplement our homes,
our schools and our churches
in building strong character.
We can instill in our youth a
passionate love for our way of
life, and a fearlessness and
courage to defend it in post
war years. This is perhaps
our most important war job.

Mount Clemens can lend

Most of us, and most GTs
too, look upon members Of the

tough sort of chaps, bereft Of
sentiment and sympathy. Har-
old Bugs" Lindsey doesn't
feel that way after OBJ
serving an incident at the
Michigan Central depot the
other day. A One-armed
veteran returning from over
seas stepped from a train with
a heavy pack in one hand. He
set il down on the platform. :.
and before a minute had
elapsed elapsed, two burly
Nj. P.'s had abandoned other
duties and hurried to his as
sistance. )ne picked up the
pack and the other took the
chap by his good arm and
steered him through the mill
ing crowd. Then they hailed
a cab and helped him and his
baggage into it. A hint of
real comradeship.

they moved from Sicily to Italy,
they left him in the sick bay of
an army hospital and he
finally caught up with them in
Italy. Then he was again
hospitalized (nothing serious),
and the outfit moved from Italy
to Corsica, again leaving Matt
behind. However, they've
got together now and Matt says
he'll stay with his pals even if

High Court Has Facts
10 Decide APP Suit,
u. 5. Memo Declares
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
The Justice Department insists
the Supreme Court now has all the
essential facts it needs to decide the
Governments civil antitrust suit
against the Associated Press.
The department, in a memoran-
dunn presented to the tribunal yes
terday, argued that there is no need
to send the case back to a lower
court for a trial In which evidence
would be produced through testi-
mony of witnesses and cross
examination of them.
The memorandum was requested
by the Supreme Court, which took
the case under advisement after
hearing argument last week.
During the argument, several JUS
tices questioned Government coun-
sci closely on the reasons for the
ing the AP case by summary judg-
acknowledgement based solely on af-
f1davits and dispositions.
Justice Douglas commented he
could not understand how an anti
trist suit of such complexity could
be decided by summary judgment.
The lower court, special three
judge United States District Court
in New York, ruled the AP must
change its membership bylaws. The
summary judgment procedure was
used on request of the Government
and over the opposition of AP coun-
sci.
The departments memorandum
insisted that all material facts are
established beyond dispute and that,
on these facts, the Judgment of the
District Court should be affirmed"
AP counsel said they were study
ing the memorandum. Under court
rules, they may file an answer If
they wish to do so.

United AirIines Protests
CAB West Coast RuIinq

The Civil Aeronautics Board was
assailed as utterly unpredictable"
and "evasive" yesterday by United
Airlines in a petition seeking recon-
sideration of a board decision af-
fecting a proposed one-carrier route
to the West Coast.
Seeking a route between Wash
ington and other Eastern points to
Southern California via Chicago,
United declared the board, in grant,
ing the Denver-Los Angeles section
to Western Air will force more
than $4,000 passengers a year to
change airplanes at Denver"
THE board has evadeo arguments
and compromised issues to such an
extent that the precedents avail
able are mostly obvious general
ities," United said. "The board is
an utterly unpredictable board. No
one can examine it's best decisions
and even venture a good guess as
to what the board will do in a par
ticular case"
