Division was the first to travel di-
rectly from the States to France.
Little more than a month after
landing, the Timberwolves, led by
Major General Terry Allen, went
into the line and remained in con-
tinuous combat for over six months.
After fighting with the First Cana
dian Army in the successful Hol-
land campaign which opened the
port of Antwerp to Allied shipping,
the Timberwolves took their place
in the First Army line at Aachen.
In slashing campaign that was
featured by night attacks the Di-
vision drove through the industrial
Schweiler area, then assault-boat-
ed the Roer, pushing ahead to take
Cologne.
Once across the Rhine at the
Remagen bridgehead, the Division
stabbed furiously into the heart
land of the Reich, taking part in
the Ruhr pocket enlightenment.

GOOD NEWS

Heartening information for the
public was released recently before
a Congressional committee by the
petroleum industry. Oil companies
stated emphatically that if the oil
industry is given adequate incentive
and freedom from legislative hand
cuffs, Americans for generations
to come" will not need to concern
themselves about lack Of oil.
The expressed view Of the indus
try is that none of many recent con-
tentions that we are running out of
oil and will shortly be dependent
on foreign sources, is supported by
a review of all the facts, soundly
appraised with proper perspective.
On the contrary, the historic
trend of the American petroleum
industry demonstrate that except
for brief periods Of readjustment to
suddenly changing circumstances,
such as the result of war, it always
has met the essential oil demands Of
this country and will continue to
do so unless fettered by hampering
restrictions
Not until the petroleum industry
fails under favorable conditions to
find oil will it be time for genuine
alarm. But even then there will
probably be no sudden exhaustion
of oil supplies, for as we make 8
transition to synthetic products, al
necessary requirements can be me-
from the known proved reserves
that will then exist
This country has hydrocarbon re
sources sufficient to meet the ma
tons requirements for oil produc
lion for generations, provided tina

Bv HELEN JAMESON

There are women who go on
gaining weight year after year, ana
do nothing about it. They Knc"
that excess adipose baggage is a
health menace, that plumpleS are
considered poor insurance risk,
Their activities slow up; outdoor
sports do not appeal to them; even
a short walk tires them. But the
thought oil reducing terrifies them.
Reducing is not deadly, depresS-
ing ordeal nor does the sUpphcdnt
Co. a remodeled figure suffer de-
rrlyations. When abundant curves
are an immediate fact, not re-
mcte possibility, the matter should
be taken in hand. To fight fat
cells when they are young Is easy:
when they form adipose commune
ties. 1t takes time to be rid Of them
Even then. slenderizJng can be &C
complished. If reducing is done
slowly, the heath will improve and
there will be feeling Of zeSt and
spirit. One must remember that
Grooming years may bring even
greater weight if something isn't
done about it now.
CURVES WILL GO
BY cutting down on fat-bmidlng
foods starches, fats and sweets
the body will feed on it's own tissues,
and the abundant curves Will
gradually be deleted.
The appetite must do turn
about. That's the rub, and the only
one.

off during the reducing period.
TAKE YOUR TIME
If you are losing two pounds a
week. you are progressing last
enough Take your time. There's no
hurry.
AS adipose tissue seems to settle
NEST often If the intersection, 1t Is
advisable to give the torso special
exercises to reduce waistllne and
hips. Try this one:
Lie on yolu back, bend your
knees to your chest, stretch your
legs up to the left. Keeping the feet
together, rotate the legs in a wide
circle away from your body until
they come UP on the right side;
bend knees to chest again and re-

fun.

Mrs. Thomasina w. johnson, in
speaking for the Council, stated
that, Until such time as Negro
nurses are utilized fully and accord
ing to the needs of the wounded
men and not denied the privilege
duty, and responsibility for serving
the needs of their country because
they are colored and placed accord
ing to some obsolete quota system,
that they are opposed to the draft
ing of any nurses"
NO DRAFT NEEDED
Mrs. Johnson further stated that,
''The public did not realize the dire
need for nurses until the President
spoke. American women Doth white
and black will care for our men, as
always, without draiC if the facts
are both presented to us. The fall
ure to get enough nurses has not
been the failure of the American
women or of our nurses but it has
brought about by the shortSighted-
ness Of the Surgeon General and
the officials of the Army and Navy
and lack of knowledge on the
part of the public as to the need
and what is expected of them"
The Council offered a four point
program for the solution of this
problem without drafting of nurses:
~ IF oil II

less of race, color creed, or religion

Corps so that both the public and
Nurses will know the need.

problem is with our officials who
