RATION BOARD
SEEKS HELPERS

A call for volunteers to serve as
price panel assistants was issued
yesterday by o. H. Shoemaker,
chairman of the local War Price
and Rationing board.
Aides will be working on COM
munity propositions in addition to
helping prevent initiation in t h e
city, the chairman pointed out.
Each worker will be required to
serve at least two hours a week
on OPA duties.
Official title for the assistants
will be merchants aides.
Shoemaker added that there are
thousands of residents here who
are available for this volunteer
work, and they should offer their
services. Those seriously interest
ed may contact him.
The need for additional price as
sistants was stressed to members
of the price panel board, staff of
the price division office and sew
era1 price panel assistants at an
area price control meeting held in
Clinton under the auspices of the
Raleigh OPA.
The program for recruiting and
organizing volunteer assistants was
explained to representatives by
Miss Ruth Wick Everett, district
information executive. The respon-
sibility of the board members in
the recruiting was told by Guy w.

this great invasion will follow that
set in the Italian campaign. There
it took months to land sufficient
supplies and men, but once these
were ashore progress has been
most rapid. There will necessarily
be many trial and error sorties
in the invasion plan.
The markets took the initial news
in their stride and in an optimistic
manner. Naturally, the actual in
vasion was discounted, but there
was no way for the stock market
to discount whether the initial move
would be successful or not. Now,
that we are over the first hurdle,
the market must digest the first
news, prepare itself for unforeseen
contingencies and await the sue
cess or failure of the trial and
error moves mentioned above. It
may be some weeks before suffi-
cient information is at hand to
make any real forecasts.
Without any qualifications, can
safely impress upon my readers at
this time that prices of stocks
bonds, commodities or real estate
will depend upon whether there is
an excess Of sellers or an excess
of buyers. Irrespective of theories,
or irrespective of precedents, and
irrespective of wars, panics, poll
ticc or odr,, inic+ro+;oD oo~@ro1o
when there are sellers, then prices
will go up; conversely, when there
are more sellers than buyers prices
go down.
There is, of course, one other
factor in this situation, namely, the
position which results when buyers
and sellers are about equal. In
such a case, neither invasion nor
sny other factor would materially
affect prices. Under this condition,
however, the tendency would be for
certain selected stocks to go for
ward. Bonds would remain about
as they are. Commodities would de-
cline and productive real estate
would continue itsSupward move.
The demand for residential real
estate, I should also expect to con-
tinue in volume.
Personally, for the time being,
l am not inclined to see any great
change one way or the other, al
though I continue extremely opti-
mistic on the long pull outlook
for all except high grade bonds.

{ BABSON PARK, Mass, June Is
Readers of this column are al
ready asking me what effect the
invasion will have on the prices
OF stocks, bonds, commodities and
reai estate. Frankly, it is too early
to tell, what will happen. The AL
lies appear headed for Paris and
its early fall is essential to the Al
lied psychological phase. 1t may
be the signal for the underground
Continental army, estimated at H.
900, 1000, to begin action.
The Allies must also secure, al
most Immediately, number OF
good ports. Undoubtedly these will
be LIE Havre and Cherbourg and
Brest. These three ports have ex-
cellent facilities and were used by
ff1e Americans in World War l.
Hence, our men are familiar with
them. After certain beachheads are
secured, it will be necessary to
spend many weeks in getting sup
plies and men ashore before the
real Berlin drive can be started.
OF course, the Germans may be
willing to easily give us Paris with
the idea of saving their strength
for resisting Allied occupation of
the German Fatherland.
In my talks with experts since
the Invasion started, there seems
tc be two lines of thought which
are quite different. Some feel that
early Allied successes will bring
about a peace scare. This would
be especially bearish on railroads,
heavy industry and o h war
stocks; yet some market analysts
are taking the opposite position.
Tley are inclined to be bullish on
Everything whether the Allies are
initially successful or meet w i h
heavy reverses.
It may be that the pattern of

Red Cross Asks $2OO,OOO,OOO
To Cover Wartime Needs

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Confront-
ed with responsibilities OF unpre-
cedented proportions. as the war
enters its most crucial stage, and
with a staggering task ahead in
the postwar period. the American
Red Cross opens it's 1914 War Fund
appeal March l. confident that the
American people will respond to
the limit of their ability.
President Roosevelt. president Of
the American Red Cross, Norman
H. Davis, chairman and active head
of the vast organization. and Leon
Fraser, national War Fund chair
man, join in urging the people Of
this country to help Red Cross
reach its national objective of
5000. 100000 because of the vital
part it must play within the next
twelve months.
Chairman Davis. in opening the
campaign, will stress the fact that
with the decisive stage of the war
at hand. the Red Cross must as
sumo a greater burden than ever
before, and at the same time must
provide aid to servicemen being
returned in ever-increasing num-
bers.
Red Cross operations over the
entire world during 1943 have
dwarfed its activities during the
first two years of war. =
An even greater burden will be
placed on Red Cross services in
1914.
Thousands of American men and
women are now in Red Cross serv-
ice with u. S. troops at home bases
and overseas. Field directors,
hospital, club and recreation work
ers are with. American armed
forces in virtually every command.
Mr.. Davis asserted.
Both in Europe and in the Far
East, Red Cross workers have
either gone with invasion forces
into new combat areas, or have
followed within very limited
time.
On the home front. the Red
Cross has broadened its service

Engagement Of
Sally Kibbey
Announced

Mr. and Mrs. William Mark Nc
Causland, Jr., of Rancho Ell Alamo,
south of Magdalena, Mexico, have
announced the engagement of Mrs.
McCauslands daughter, Sarah Lee
Kibbey, to 1t. James Hiram ISher-
wood, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs.
James Hiram sherwood of Port
AIlegany, Pa.
Miss Kibbey is the daughter of
the late w. Beckford Kibbey of the
Alamo Ranch. Mrs. McCausland,
mother of the bride to-be, is the
former Josephine Mix of Nogales.
Miss Kibbey attended Bishops
School in La Jolla, Calf, and grad
uated from Wellesley College 1t.
1sherwood attended school in Oil
City, Pa, and Williams College. He
is a graduate of Harvard Law School
and has been. admitted to the bar

pSny and Associated Gas.

tremendously. Field directors are
serving in every sizable military
establishment and camp through
out the country, and recreation and
social service workers are located
in Army and Naval hospitals.
One of the most important and
necessary wartime Red Cross func-
tions has been the collection of
human blood for plasma. Thirty
five blood donor stations are now
operating.
The dramatic story of the Red
Cross Blood Donor Service. through
which thousands of soldiers and
sailors have been saved from death.
began in February, 1941, when the
Surgeons General of the Army and
Navy asked the Red Cross to pro-
cure $4,000 pints of blood. Last year
more than 10000 pints of blood
were collected for the Army and
Navy. This year the goal is more
than 100000 pints.
With major battles of the war
yet to come. the Army has asked
the Red Cross to supply many mil
lions of surgical dressings. American
men wounded in battle will depend
acutely on the vast Red Cross
surgical dressing production pro-
gram.
Numerous other Red Cross home
operations. such as Prisoner OF
War packaging centers, where more
than million parcels for war
prisoners are prepared each month
for shipment overseas. are sup
ported by citizen-participation in
the Red Cross War Fund.
So extensive is Red Cross service
during this war that every Amer
ican civilian can contribute some
thing to at least one Of its func-
tions. To continue this gigantic
work, all Americans must assume
their share of the responsibility CT
carrying on this far-reaching service.
The $200.000,000 quota will en-
able Red Cross to alleviate suffer
ing and pain at home and abroad.
and to carry on its vast military
welfare service.

She wasn't really an actress nor a good singer,
nor even passable dancer, but she excelled in
poSturing, being by nature Sinuous and supple,
and the poStures, which she thought of herself,
stimulated the audience that even the briefest
of her scenes was liable TO create a riot.
Her reputation for wickedness was immense;

slipped around the corner
While her vogue in the theatre was at its
height, she decided it was time for way of life
more private. more Identified. and more secure
She therefore became the mistress in succession
of several wealthy men, leaving each in turn
always for one of two reasons either because she
had already got her hands on all their money, Or
because they had become aware of the range Of
her sinfuness.
She would appear with temporary escort at

WHAT PROCOPIUS DID TO THEODORE

HROCOPIUS of CaeSarea historian of the
- Emperor Justinian (527-565 ADD He was also
private secretary to Belsarius, Commander of
JustinianS armies.
Besarius ended his life in political disgrace but
that fact didn't make him less interesting subject
to write about. Justnian, you remember, was
statesman of considerable courage and vision re-
Speced still for his codificaon of the Roman law.
Procopius wrote straight history about Justinian
and Belisarius, but he also left small supple,
mentaTy volume called Anecdota, containing what
he didn't dare tell in his main work.
The Anecdotes, as perhaps we don't need to be
told were published after all concerned were safely
dead and buried. They contain intimate portrait
of Justinians wife, the Empress Theodore. No such
scandal was written by any historian about any
woman before or Since
