He estimated the strength of

many divisions had been reduced

Turning 10 the aerial offensive

NCOHtfHueU JTOW fuye OHS) employment compensation list S which include other war workers and service men and women.
 The law is very specific for gov ernment departments about giving old jobs or equal ones back to men and women who have served in the armed forces and been honorably discharged. With any considerable cutbacks at all and demobilization giving priorities to veterans, there can only result terrific turnover in civilian governmen employees.
 That's why the Budget Bureau blueprint, next to that for demob- ilization of the armed forces, is likely to be one of the most vital of our domestic peacetime plans.
 Washington is particularly in- terested. Government employment here has jumped from around 130000 to more than 270,000. When the men and women in uniform leave the capital, drastic cutback in federal workers probably would create private depression for the city.

Do you feel headachy and upset due to poorly digested food? To feel cheerful and happy again your food must be digested properly.
 Each day, Nature must produce about two pints of vital digestive juice to help digest your food. If Nature fails. your food may remain undigested- leaving you headachy and irritable.
 Therefore, you must increase the flow of this digestive juice. Carter's Little Liver Pills increase this flow quickly -. often in as little as 30 minutes. And, you're on the road to feeling better.
