KANSAS CITY, June 8 lP).-The
great wheat belt of the Southwest
IS starting its annual harvest-with
more wheat than last year and
fewer men, combines and boxcars
to get it from the field to market.
There's plenty of storage space,
though, in contrast to recent years
when glutted markets forced grow
ers to utilize old filling stations,
empty garages and even the family
parlor. But even at the empty ele-
vators there's that manpowel

YMCA 10 Celebrate
Founding 100 Years
Aao in Humble Room

As q result of an English country
youth wrecking load of hay and
being forced by an irate father to
go to London to work as a draper,
the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton was founded. Tuesday it will
celebrate the Tooth anniversary of
its birth in the ill-furnished rooms
of George Williams.
The story of the trivial incident
that indirectly gave birth to an Or
ganization that now numbers 10000
institutions scattered in 68 countries
around the globe is told by the
YMCA In connection with its GEN.
tennial.
For a long time George williams
family had suspected that he would
never make good farmer, but when
he overturned a load of hay into a
roadside ditch that clinched their
decision to send him to London
Arrived there, the 22-year -old youth
was shocked at the immortality and
depravity he found among mer-
chants clerks of the big city-a
condition he attributed to their
having no constructive recreation
for their leisure hours.
Calls First Meeting.
On June 6. 1874, he called meet
ing of his fellow clerks in his bed
room to organize a society for the
Improvement of the spiritual con-
dition of young men" The move
ment spread rapidly. When, SO
years later, Mr.. Williams was
knighted by Queen Victoria for his
distinguished services to human
ity," the WMCA already numbered
5000 associations in 80 nations.
Today, in the midst of a war, the
YMCA, its officials announce, is
planning an even broader program
of practical Christianity and social
usefulness.
In the present war, the YMCA
points out, it is one of six agencies
carrying on work for the armed
forces under the aegis of the USO
its share being about one-third OF
the total program. In addition IL
is responsible for the spiritual, rec
reational and social welfare of some

Auto Association Tell!
Drivers 10 Keep Cars
Home on Christmas

Motorists today were advised by
the American Automobile Associa-
ton to keep cars in their garages,
with nearly all gas stations closed
and the few open running out of
fuel quickly.
Despite allotments of gas yester-
day the demand ate up the fuel as
it came in, according to the asso-
citation and many motorists were
stranded. Approximately 100 autos
were towed yesterday by the asso-
citation, six men working all day at
the task. More than 1000 calls
asking about gas came in during
the day, with the association advis-
ing callers to keep their cars at
home.
Long and slow moving lines were
the rule at the few stations open
yesterday. Gasoline was rationed at
each, with the number of gallons
allowed customer depending upon
the individual dealer.
The association said gas stations
normally opening at 8 am probably
will open earlier tomorrow to serve
motorists unable to get fuel over
the week end. Individual stations
the association added, will deter
mine their hours of opening.
