Board was warned that the gen.
eral paper shortage won't clear
up for year after the war.
Cartons will be going to the
Pacific area in greater numbers.
Civilian smokes get low rating
in the general lineup for short
carton material.
Some cigarette manufacturers
want more money for cigarettes
to make up for higher costs for
leaf tobacco. Office of Price Ad-
ministratien- reports show that
manufacturers are making more
cigarettes than ever, however,
with no possibility of making
more with higher prices. Cigar
makers, also paying more for
leaf tobacco, make higher-priced
cigars to get their returns. CT
gar workers are easier to get
for higher-priced brands be-
cause they get higher piece work
rates.
Bright spot in the picture Is
the coming Whopping tobacco
crop. That means a buildup for
future stocks, but even with
hurried curing, which the tobac-
co trade doesn't admit goes on,
this tobacco won't be ready for
over year.
All in all it doesn't look as il
you should expect any great
change for the better in the Gig
arctic shortage that is nation
wide, although spotty, with one

another the next, and many deal

farmers in this frost-painted val
ley under the cloud Scraping
snow peaks of the Chugach
Range, food rationing in the
States seems strange, indeed, be-
cause the housewives here act
ually have more food available
than they know what to do with.
Butter. steaks, milk, cream
and other hard-to-get commodi-
ties can be had in any quantity
at the local cooperative trading
post, and as a result the Matan-
uSkanS probably are the best fed
people under the American flag.

Roland Snodgrass, wife of the
cooperative manager, invites

her dinner table TO loosen your
belt SurreptitiouSly. Have some
more butter"
You get real clothed cream
for your coffee, and for dessert
there Is ice cream so rich in
butter fat that a dish of it is al
most a meal in itself.
The Matanuska valley in the
past three years has become the
bread basket of the North. Prod
uCtS are shipped to civilian con-
SumerS at such remote points as
the distant Yukon villages and TO
Army posts in the Aleution com
bat bases. The farmers them
selves are prosperous and are so
healthy that their local doctors
devote their time chiefly to
bringing babies into the world.
We've come a long way since
the days when people referred

grinning farmer tells you. Il
guess most of us could qualify
as Sourdoughs ourselves now.
We've been here nine years, and
some of the children we brought
North are grown up, married and
have children of their own"
To visitors fresh from the
United States, the valley is a
land of milk and honey-prob-
ably the only place in America
in which a housewife feels Of

self to a second steak.

Boy, Is, Who Looted
Home Makes Restitution

VAN DYKE-A 16-year old
Detroit boy, who allegedly pill
fered a purse left in the home
of Mrs. Laverne Spice, 232O8
Chambers street, on Oct. II, was
apprehended Monday by Deputy
Sheriffs Richard DeKetelaere
and George Collins.
The youth, the officers said,
entered the Spice home when
Mrs. Spice left to purchase groc-
cries at a nearby store, and
while he found some S28 to $50
in a purse lying on the kitchen
refrigerator-he took merely
S13 of that sum.
The child's relatives have
made restitution and the juven-
lie has been released, the Off
GERS said.

their favorite brands is foreseen
by tobacco experts. Two fac
