WILMINGTON FAILS
TO MEET "E" QUOTA

Although Wilmington went over
the top in purchasing 100 per cent
of it's quota for bonds of all issued
during the Seventh War Loan
drive, tentative reports on the
city's final showing in the sale Of
e. bonds during the campaign
indicated yesterday that the "E''
bond quota had not been met
according to J. G. Thornton. chair
man of the city War Finance com
mittee. CO. bond sales reached
only IS per cent of the established
quota of $2,478,0 900.
With reports from several issu.
ing agents yet to come in, sales
amounted to $2,358, 701.25 today
and Mr.. Thornton estimated that
the final showing would fall ap
proximately 100000 short of the
goal.
Mr.. Thornton congratulated the
city on its record in the Seventh
War Loan drive, and even thougi'
e. bond sales did not meet the
goal, the results were above ex
pectations for the drive, and com
pared favorably with the nationa
average.

RATI0NINC BOARD
ADOPTS new RULE

A new system of distributing
sugar has been drawn-up by the
local War Price and Rationaing
Board, according to Chief Clerk
Dan. ]. Herrin, and will go into
effect for the second allotment, as
a result of 70 per cent of the local
supply of canning sugar already
being exhausted during current
fling for the first allotment.
OF the original stock OF l61 ,OOO
pounds of canning sugar, only 3d.
600 pounds remain, and in order
to stretch the supply, consumers
will be allowed two and a half
pounds of sugar for canning for
each member of the family. Five
pounds per person was the original
allotment.
Those who have already received
their first allotment of canning
sugar may apply - preferably by
mail - for their second allotment
by filing a statement over their
signature of the number Of quarts
canned with their first allotment
of sugar. Distribution of the second
allotment will begin Immediately
at the local board.
Making allowance for those per-
sons who have not filed for their
original allotment, the Ration board
estimated that with the supply OF
canning sugar on hand, all prob
able applicants could be assured
the two and one half pound rate
of sugar.

CAMBRIDGE, MASS, July g.
"A neWspaperman's educational
paradise is opening its doors to
women.
In line with a trend recently en-
phasized in other affiliates of Har-
ward University, the Nieman Foun-
dalton committee on fellowships
decided this year to consider Wom-
en- for its opportunities on the
same basis as men.
About IL fellowships are award
ed annually by the committee to
selected newspapermen. (87 were
awarded in the first seven years.
The felloWshlps often are termed
"newspaperman's eye view OF
an education and are cherished
highly for the chance they give
members of the working press to
take year CT specialized study.
Now beginning it's eighth year
of operation. the committee is fl
nanced by a bequest Of 81 500, 600,
left by the late Agnes VAIL Me
man in memory of her husband,
Lucius w. Nieman, owner and pub
Usher of the Milwaukee Journal,
who died in 1885, =. The awards
usually are announced in July and
successful applicants start study
the following autumn on Harvard S
classic campus.
Selections are based, says Ar
thur Wild, member of the four
man committee on admissions, on
a written application and personal
interviews with the candidates.
eff he or she is the type to stick
with the business" he's good
bet, Wild said. 1--WE can tell by
the way he acts and writes Wheth-
er he's a good reporter"
Fellows do not receive degrees.
They do not write theses. They
may attend any courses at any
time. They are not required to
write reports - beyond a critical
analysis of the course. That's be-
cause the fund is mot to give
technical training in journalism
but rather to enable the fellows to
increase thei, competence in SUBJ
jects with which they have to deal
as writer's or editors"
The fellowships gives financial
support by providing the same sal
airy as that received at the fellow S
former position-with additions if
the cost of living is higher in the
Cambridge area than in the home
of the recipient.
Some 300 applications are re.
ceived annually, from all parts OF
the country. Many Of the former
fellows have gone on to notable
careers; one has given his life on
d,1tv as war correspondent. A

that Johnson's idea might be a
good one. But he pointed out that
:he Japanese government h :
steadfastly refused to negotiate fol-
any further exchange of internec

He said, however, that the 49,
