Thousands of children are
homeless orphans, wandering over
the countryside. Thousands more
are imminent danger of death.
I'm some parts Of the country
there seems to be plenty of food,
but the transportation system has
been pretty well wiped out. In
the interior there is no salt, and
people have developed goiter and
terrible teeth. To relieve the stir
alton, peasant women have car
ried CO. and 100-pound sacks OF
salt from the sea, walking bare
foot through the enemy lines into
the interior. These women are
among Yugoslavia's many heroes. p"
Mrs. Balokovic said that, to
date, the American Committee
of Yugoslav Reliaf had collect
ed between 100000 and $780,
600, which was being dispatch
ed In the form of medical sup
plies, clothes and food.
Mrs. Balokovic is slender,
brown-haired grey-eyed woman.
After graduation from Barnard
college, she sang for time on
the Chatauqua Circuit, to the hor-
ror of her mother who wanted
her to be missionary, and then
met and married Balokovic. Since
then she has devoted herself to
helping his career. Once the Balo-
kovics sailed for an Australian
concert tour in their own two-mast-
ed schooner and, while he prac-
tlsed concertos in a swivel chair
rlveted to the deck, she navigated
the vessel, straight as a die to
South Sea ports. Today the Balo-
kovics subordinate music to Yugo-
slav relief.

Liqhf Vote Indicated
in South Mucomb

Principal interest in Mon
days primary elections today
appeared to center on Away:
tempestuous Lake and Warren
townships where a multiplicity
of candidates are carrying inn
pasioned last-minute appeals
TO the voters.
Nevertheless a comparatively
light vote is in prospect, Off
Gals say.
While the potentialities OF the
Tallman DEM -Strich COOP
supervisorial contest in Warren
township remain undiminished.
interest as of today is focused
on races for the lesser offices
inasmuch as neither of the pair
has primary competition. Their
day of reckoning will come on
April 2.
COP CONTESTS
In Lake, however, where Ad-
rian A. Lingemann, for FL years
that townships representative
on the Board of Supervisors, is
opposed by Emerson Belmore
and Daniel Dickerson on the
Republican ticket a stiff elimi-
nation race is in prospect. Ling
emann, solidly entrenched and
the county-at-large, must over
generally popular throughout
come the younger candidates.
Belmore, who has lived in the
Shores since 1924. served six
years on the village commission
and has been exceedingly active
in civic affairs. Dickerson, COM
paratively unknown in political
circles, remains vague quanti-
ty insofar as his vote-getting
powers are concerned.
Under SAFE
On the Lake township Demo-
cratic ticket Edmund Under.
member of the Village Commits
sion, is unopposed and thus is
assured his party's nomination
for the right to fight it out with
the winner of the Lingemann-
ACKNOWLEDGMENT semi-finals.
In Warren township contests
for virtually all offices below
the rank of supervisor, on one
ticket or the other, seem to as
sure a considerable turnout in
that vote-heavy district.
In Erin township D. M. Ken
nedy, opposing Alfred Schott for
the clerkship he has held for
many years will provide the fea-
ture run-off of the day.
East Detroit will nominate a
mayor, four council candidates
and a constable but, since Mayor
Richard Maxwell and Constable
Walter Prentice are unopposed
the sole decision will rest on
elimination of one of five cand-
idates for the four council nom-
nations which, later, will result
in two men being named to the
community's governing body. In

Can 4-F'sbeW Whipped
into Fighting Shape
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff CORRESPONDENT

WASHINGTON - Let's sup
pose Congress actually does get
around to drafting 4-Fs for es-
sential war work as War Mo-
bilization Director James F.
Byrnes recommends. What will
be the gain?
Right off the bat Army could
start rehabilitating about 702,-
600 of the 4,217,000 and whip
them into fighting shape. At
least that's the claim of re-
port just released from the Sen
ate Subcommittee on Wartime
Health and Education.
Well, that's a good start. But
assurance Of results end there.
Joker of the whole idea is that
nobody knows, or is even will
ing to guess, how many ATS are
not now in essential work. War
Manpower Commission says it's
too tough to get these statistics.
Selective Service says it's a
problem for VINO. That's what
Byrnes says too.
The Subcommittee repor
which has gone into the At Sit
uation pretty thoroughly offers
statistics; but no clues as to how
many AIS might already be up
to their neckS in war produc-
ton.
MILLION MENTAL CASES
Write off the books immedi-
ately 443,800 called 'manifestly
disqualified These unfortun-
ates are totally blind, have one
or more members missing, etc.
Even some of these are already
in war work.
More than 100000 4-Fs suf-
fer mental disease" and men
tai deficiency" Get the black
pencil out again and cross out a
large batch-the report doesn't
say exactly how many--of in
curably insane, idiots, i'm
beetles, and morons from these
two groups. This leaves spastics,
epileptics, the ''psycho-neurot-
les" who can't stand the mental
disciplines of service, and the il
literates. The committee reports
that most of the latter are do
ing manual labor in essential
work. But they're in already, SO
any draft order won't affect
them.
Now, here's the bonanza-the
report claims, and Mr.. Byrnes
hopes. Almost two and one half
million ATS are that way for
reasons ranging from syphilis,
avoirdupois, and that old favor
lite, flat feet, to trouble cardio-
vascular more Familiarity known
as heart trouble Approximately
one third of them got that way
through residual effect of in

Result is they now have para

bones, missing fingers and other
obvious defects. -
