Florida Ration Boards
Give Tourists Bad News

MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 81 In 1t
looks like long, long walk home
- or long wait - for thousands
of tourists who came to Florida
for a winter vacation and now find
themselves strandede.
Tough-talking local ration boards
have cut off extra gas supplies,
apd railroads have adopted vol
untary space-rationing plan to
accommodate essential military
needs which means the average
vacatioaer can try to get on
bus, jam himself into an unre-
served day coach or stay put.
More than $50 northbound tou-
rists have been turned down when
they reached the border city OF
Jacksonville, low on gas and cou-
pons, and appealed for extra ra-
tons. The Dade County (MiamD
board has denied more than 1000
applications for extra gas already
and is continuing to say no at the
rate of about 100 times a day
Rationing officials at st. Peters
burg, West coast Mecca for eld-
erly visitors, also have declined
to issue extra supplies to enable
winter residents to drive their
cars back north.
Railroad officials here revealed
that a pretty high" percentage
of space is being controlled by

under a plan which has the "un-
officiar' approval OF the ODT.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICE

"Christ Jesus was the subject
Of the Lesson-SNmon in all Chris
tan Science Churches and Socie-
ties on Sunday, February 27.
The Golden Text was from John
1:18. mo man hath seen God at
any time; the only begotten Son,
which is in the bosom of the Fa-
Their, he hath declared him.
Among the citations which COM
prised the Lesson-Sermon were the
following from the Bible: "Be-
hold, the days come, saith the
Lord, when I will raise unto David
arighteous Branch, and a King
shall reign and prosper, and shall
execute judgment and justice in
the earth. In his days Judah shall
be saved, and Israel shall dwell
safely and this is his name where
by he shall be called, The Lord
Our Righteousness" Jeremiah
1913, g..
The Lesson-Sermon also inc1ud-
ed the following passages from
the Christian Science textbook,
Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures" by Mary Baker
Eddy. "The advent Of Jesus Of
Nazareth marked the first CEN
fury of the Christian era, but the
Christ is without beginning of
years or end of days. Throughout
all generations both before and
after the Christian era, the Christ,
as the spiritual idea--the reflec-
ton of God,-has come with some
measure of power and grace to
all prepared to receive Christ.

With his forces taking another

er to his cherished goal of the Philip
pines, there to avenge Bataan.
The latest gain drew U. S. forces
nearer to the thick cluster of islands
lying off Dutch New Guinea which
the enemy repeatedly has fortified
with air bases to counter any AL
lied thrust against the Indies to the
south or the Philippines to the north.
In advancing 1875 miles westward,

from Milne Bay, far to the south

Arthur launched the campaign that

EMPLOYMENT:
On Decline

For the first time since the war
began, the nations manpower ap-
peared in balance with needs, with
supply of labor in critical areas the
only problem, the National Indus
trial Conference board said.
Earlier the department of agri-
culture noted a 4 per cent decline
in farm labor, with some of the de-
crease attributed to the inability to
get into the fields because of I'M
favorable weather. AS a result of
the delay, many farmers were eX-
pected to switch acreage from
small grains to row crops, necessi-
tating additional work.
Rejecting the continued drop in
manufacturing industries, there
were Al, 300, 600 non-farm workers in
March, compared with the peak of
43, 0O0, 900 in July, 1913. Only in
transportation was there an increase
shown over last year.

this tough plant would become a

CHINA:
Seek Unity

With the Japanese tightening thei1
grip on China through their con-
troll of her seaports and productive
industrial centers, Chang Kai-Shek
moved to grid the country for a
final stand against the enemy by
drawing the Communists in the
north fully into the battle.
AS Chang met with Communist
leader Lin Tso-han, Chinese regu-
lars continued their drive into
northern Burma, in an effort to join
up with Lieut.. Gen. Joseph Still
wells troops moving eastward from
India, and thus open a new supply
route to China.
Upon the extent of Chiang's con
cession of self-rule and participation
in the Chinese central government
to the Communists repeatedly will
rest the degree of their cooperation.

TRANSPORTATION
OUerhauIing asked

Correction of inequalities and dis
examinations in present freight
rate structures to reflect the cost
of service, and creation of three
permanent federal agencies to keep
abreast of transportation problems,
were among the recommendations
made by a special board of inves-
tigation and research organized by
congressional enactment in 1910.
At the same time, the board went
into the south's protest against GER
tain freight rate differences benefit
ing the northeast, declaring that
figures showed that what the south
really needed was a development of
her own industry to utilize her abun-
dant natural resources.
The board called for the ship
pers' freedom in the selection of
reasonable joint routes and rates
of the same or different types of
transportation facilities to speed
commerce..

OIL:
New Field

With the discovery of a promis-
ing big oil field in Mississippi which
alreay has brought in two large
wells, attention was focused on a
whole tier of southeastern states.
According to oil authorities, ap-
proximately 1851 300 miles of terri
tory at the roots of the Appalachian
mountains in North Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mis-
sissippi are underlain by sedi-
mentary rocks, which might bear
much petroleum.
Although a 100000 mile territory
in Texas and Louisiana has already
given up IA billion barrels of oil,
authorities enthusiasm for the pros
pective southeastern field has been
tempered by reports that its zones
for accumulation of petroleum are
fewer in number and the thickness
of the sedimentary rocks are less
than in the Texas and Louisiana re-
gions.

REHABILITATION
Navy Program

After six months Of operation of
the rehabilitation program for men
and women at the U. S. naval hos
pital at Great Lakes, exhibits told
an interesting story of the success
of the project under direction of
Lieut.. Comdr. R. E. Kinneman.
On display were fancy scarves,
purses and belts in yellows, whites
and greens. There were such use
full articles as ash trays and bill
folds, and such chippery bric-a-bracs
as clay turtles and yarn dogs. Pic
lures caught the charm of the out
doors and depicted naval life.
Created to stimulate the minds of

uncover many talents of which
they were never aware.
