consider the proposals submitted
by Mr.. Simon, the Planning board
wished to retire to its job of city
planning and coming and to turn
over to the new committee the
planning of Wilmington indus
trial future.
The blueprint for the new organic
atoms program is contained in the
lOO-page manuscript submitted
at this mornings meeting by
George W. Simon, Jr., industrial
survey of Wilmington to determine
its future economic potentials.
The study was initiated by \the
City Planning board in an attempt

gains of its wartime economy, and
10 forestall any postwar depress.
ion. In making his survey, M.
Simon has spent months comforting
with local businessmen, manufac-
turers and professional men to
evaluate Wilmington as unit in
the industrial Southeast.
In his report Mr.. Simon observ-
ed that Wilmington had grown in
spite of itself, and that it is now
in a position to capitalize on it's
vast store of diversified resources
:" Impressed with work so
far done by Industrial Properties.
Inc, Mr.. Simons said that to fully
exploit Wilmington's natural ad-
vantages it would take further hard
work.
In enumerating Wilmington's as
sets, he pointed out that within a
radious of 100 miles Of Wilmington
live 100000 residents, more than
the area surrounding Charleston
embraces, and he said by way OF
comparison that the buying power
Of the residents in this area also
exceeded the buying income OF
those in the outlying area of Char
lesion.
To promote Wilmington eco
nomic well-being, Mr.. Simon sug-
gested increased port activity
through the construction of storage
and handling facilities. He placed
particular stress upon the logical
need for erecting here tobacco
warehouse so that Wilmington
could serve as the outlet for the
upstate tobacco industry. In this
same connection, he mentioned the
development OF South and Central
American trade and the importa.
ton of hardwood from these coun.
tries to feed the furniture manu-.
facturers in North Carolina.
Development of the retail mer-
chandise trade in Wilmington on a
scale which would attract the logi-
cal nearby consumers was also
urged. His survey OF residents in
the Wilmington area indicated that
Will lington merchants were not
being patronized to the logical ex-
tent.
In his investigation of industries
suitable to Wilmington's natural
resources and economy, Mr.. Sim.
ons listed between forty and fifty
industries that could profitably
operate in Wilmington. Some o.
those mentioned were: small boat
building and repairing. baskets for
fruits and vegetables, book bind
ling and publishing canning and

Of cheaper garments, cotton manu-
featuring, insecticides, paints and
varnishes, household furniture,
concrete products, petroleum re-
filming and perfume manufacturing.
He specifically recommended the
textile and food industry as being
economically practical, since these
industries are deficiency industries
in the South, which he explained
as meaning that in this area the
consumption exceeds the produc.
ton OF these items.
Stress was placed upon the pro.
motion of the nearby beaches ana
their development as winter as
well as summer res orts. He also
suggested capitalizing upon the
scenic assets around Wilmington,
such as the azalea gardens and
Greenfield Lake.
His report was warmly received
by the members of the newly or.
gained committee, who commend.
ed him for the scope of his survey.
Mr.. Emory suggested that, with
financial assistance from the city
and county governments, the Hous.
ing Authority would undertake tc
make a survey of the skills Of
laborers in Wilmington in order tc
provide some index of available
labor for prospective industries
here. Particular emphasis was
placed upon survey of skilled
laborers in the needlecraft and
hosiery trade, since inquiries have
already been made in these fields
He estimated that the survey could
be completed within a month al
an approximate cost Of $1,000.
Fred Rippy, Jr., no has been
active in the work of the City
Planning board, was named tc
serve as temporary secretary Of
the economic committee until q

Germany (CNS) - Sixty U. s. combat divisions saw action on the Western Front in the war against the Nazis. They include Az infantry divisions, 15 armored, and 3 air borne outfits. Here they are:
 Infantry: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 26, 28, 29, 30, 35, 36, AZ, A, 45, 63, 65, 66, 69, 70, Fl, 75, 76, 78, 19, 30, 83, 84, 86, ST, 89, 90, 94, 95, 97, 99, 100, 1O2, 103, 1O4 and 1O6.
 Armored: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, II, 12, 13, IA, 16 and 20.
 Airborne: IT, 82 and 1O1.
 In addition, the enemy felt the might of IA British, II French, 5 Canadian and 1 Polish divisions.
 Some IS U. s. Army combat di- visions and Marine divisions have been identified in the Pacific. Seven U. s. divisions fought it out in Italy.
 The first 4 divisions to be rede- ployed from the ETC to the Paci- fic will be the 86, 95, 97 and 1O4, all latecomers to the battle for Ger many. Personnel, minus those with sufficient points for discharge will make their boat ride via the U. s. A. They'll all get furloughs en route.

So many of the newer lads making progress in these here parts that it's difficult for conscientious scribe like Carson to know just where to start. After all Boswell had only one char acter to take apart. .@
 For a starter I'd say that Cpl. Joie Mann, the Chicago Catamount, is doing all right for hissef. Even though Joe is a quiet lad and goes in for the five foot shelf and all that classical culture, he really clicks. Maybe he quotes Shakespeare to them. Maybe he just looks at them. Maybe he's got a system. I used to think once l had a system too, but when my A card ran out the interest waned somehow. (Ed Note: Everything happens to Car son).
