TARPON MAN ARRESTED
WORLD WAR I CHARGE

Charles Payne, 50-year-old cit
izen of Tarpon was arrested by
FBI agents Wednesday as he
came from one of the mines at
Clinchco, where he has been en-
ployed, on a charge growing out
of World War l.
+ 1t appears that Payne was a
soldier in the first World War
and that in an alteration he kill
ed first lieutenant, for which
he was court martialed and given
a long term in a federal prison.
After a few years he was parol-
ed, probably having been good
prisoner, but with the strict slip
ulation that he should report his
whereabouts and what he was
doing to the proper authorities
every monht.
Maybe all this irked the man
and he decided to get away from
it. He located at Tarpon eighteen
years ago, secured a job at the
mines at Clinchco and has lived
there since and according to the
FBI agents, he made no report
during all that time. But they
finally located him and he was
taken to Abingdon for DISPOSE
ton of the matter.

Democrats Select
Delegates To
Convention

Probably 200 Democrats from
various parts Of the county met
in the courthouse here last Sat-
urday to select delegates to the
Dickenson-B Buchanan convention,
which will meet here next Sat-
urday to nominate a candidate
for the House of Delegates for
the two counties. Sandlick, Will
is and Clintwood districts were
particularly we'll represented in
the meeting.
Virgil F. skeen, Democratic
county chairman, called the meet
ing to order, talked at some
length on matters of local party
history, and said that he was en-
dorsed for the nomination for
the House Of Delegates by Dick
enson county in l941, but that
his nomination was vetoed by
Wise county, and that he now
understood that in case he was
endorsed for the nomination by
Dickinson this year that Buch-
anan county would block his
nomination in the convention.
Such being the case, he said, he
had advised his friends to not at
tend the mass meeting In con-
clusion, he announced that he
would leave the meeting and call
ed upon his friends to leave with
him, and they did so.
The meeting then proceeded to
business by electing E. j. Suth-
erland chairman and Everett B.
Stanley secretary.
The presiding chairman an
nounced that under the conven-
ton plan Dickinson county
would be entitled to 56 delegates
and a like number of alternates.
Upon motion it was agreed that
the Democrats of each migisterial
district would meet separately
and choose their delegates and
alternates. This they did, and the
meeting was again called to or
der as the various districts adj
vised that they were ready to
report. The secretary then read
the list of delegates and alter
mates as reported by each dis
trict. Then the meeting adjourn
ed.
Skeen's withdrawal leaves A.
r. Singleton as the only announc
ed candidate for the nomination.

Wars bring to light many strange
facts, previously undreamed Of, which
man under pressure of necessity often
turns to good account. Take the mat
ter of food, for example. When all
forms Of citrus fruits disappeared
from the markets of England be-
cause shipping facilities had to be
diverted to wartime uses, someone
thought of using rose hips, which
were abundant there, and had been
discovered to be a rich source of vita
min c. Presently, ways were found
to incorporate an extract of their
juices in the civilian diet = at least
until oranges and grapefruit were
once more available. Considerable
vitamin c is obtained, Of course, from
tomatoes, cabbage and other vege-
tables eaten raw or cooked, but this
new source was lucky find since it
required little or no cultivation and
had more vitamin c than oranges,
weight for weight. 1t merely had to
be extracted, debittered and favored
So far in this country, civilians
generally have had no trouble getting
enough citrus fruits, tomatoes and
fresh vegetables to supply their vita
min c requirements, but the study of
the vitamin content of unused plants
is of interest, nevertheless. The jour
nal of Nutrition for December IL,
1914, carries report on recent
study of fresh, cooked and frozen
samples of wild greens such as poke
weed, tall dock and curly dock. These
have been found to contain twice as
much vitamin c as spinach while

NUTRITION AND LABOR
NOT YET USING ALL NATURE HAS TO OFFER

poverty weed, shepherds purse and
lambs quarter contain about as much
as spinach. There is indication also
that vitamin c content is greatest in
plants exposed to full sunlight and
grown on fertile, uncultivated soil.
On the home front, while this in
formation may seem in the nature of
sport to some, knowledge of such
plants may mean the difference be-
tween life and death to men of our
fighting forces, lost in the jungles of
New Guinea or Burma. 1t is not un-
usual to read in the press of men sur
viving for days on berries and roots
when cut off from their source Of
supplies. Our men in the Army and
Navy are given the opportunity, in
the course of their training, to learn
to distinguish valuable wild plants
from useless or harmful ones, and
many of them have put this knowl-
edge to good use. The returning
soldier and sailor may surprise US
with his knowledge of edible wild
plants and their values.

(WHICH ROAD, WAR OR PEACE?"

Detroit 0LNS). = (Which Road,
War or Peace?" is the provocative
title of a leaflet recently issued by
the Michigan Labor Committee
Against Peace-time Conscription. The
leaflet asks "Do we want to give up
on peace before we have sat down
at the peace table?" 1t points out
that military conscription never
meant security against attack for

dangerous possibility of the use of
conscription for strike-breaking and

"We hope and expect that all of

Wilson, high scoring man for the PAA, with final total of 19 points, was almost as good on pass work as he was on field shots. Second high man was Gregory with 10 points, all field goals, to his credit. Individual shooting, with the exception of field goals, was good in most cases.
 Outstanding on the hard-fighting Signac machine was Scott, with four field goals, Thibodeau with thro, and Mcdonnell with three. These men played the kind of ball that could in time make the Signacs strong, competent team.
 Over-anXiety, excitement and fumbles kept both the Signacs and Clipper teams from playing grace full, fast ball, but whatever kind of play they were playing had as much c. A. or grandstand appeal as the
