Hula Headache
BY CHARLES ID. RICE
Grass skirts are one
of the crazier items
OPA has to deal with

OFA mas to deal with
liver hear of the black market in
IL hula skirts, taro root, steaks,
garlic? They may seem bit conf
cal to you. but they're no joke to
nearly 5000. 900 people. They're no
joke to OPA officials, either. who
have to find means of enforcing price
ceilings on them.
The millions who depend on such
exotic items in their daily lives are
the residents of four of our territories:
Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and
the Virgin Islands. When they. like
the rest of US. were hit by rising
prices, Congress told OPA to include
them in its price-control and ration
ing job. The fact that this territorial
population is made up of 81 differ
ent races. all with varying languages
and customs, makes the OPA mans
lot not a happy one

nary vital commodity like gasoline
didn't interest him much - gas isn't

: In Hawaii the OPA doesn't have
the travel difficulties of Alaska. but
in some respects the job is even
tougher. The population includes
Chinese, Melanesians, Koreans, Jap
anese, Portuguese and Filipinos.
Trying to keep living costs down is
a jigsaw puzzle affair. but it is being
managed. A typical OPA board in
Honolulu lists this melange of names:
Walter Aloian,
Shoichi Kawasaki.
Fred Ifo.
K F. Lum,
Thelma Akana,
John York.
Perhaps the most curious COM
modify that must be watched is the
hula skirt. Hawaiian girls wouldn't
think of wearing such gimcracks as
daily dress, but our soldiers and
sailors get kick out of sending them
home as souvenirs. And it's up to
the OPA to see that they're not
rocked by black-market prices.

Songs Of the 0PA

AT ONE meeting a tropical thun-
derstorm cut loose, and the Ameri-
can OPA supervisor started to run
for cover. But when he saw that
not soul in the audience took the
slightest heed of the downpour, he
returned and sat Spartan-like while
his suit shrank to strangle- hold
dimensions.
But all in all, the OPA is very
fond of the four territories, despite
the headaches they present. The
reason is understandable - price
control has become popular in every
one of them. In Puerto Rico and the
Virgin Islands, they even sing songs
about how wonderful the OPA is.
AS one member in Washington
headquarters put it: "If somebody
in the States would only write a
song about us, I'd be willing to sit
through a thunderstorm every day
in the week"

80 cents, milk to 81, and eggs to SIS,
you would know just how the
Rosarios felt. They and their neigh
bors were literally saved from ruin
when the OPA stepped in.
The Virgin Islands were in
much the same boat as Puerto
Rico, except that the staple was
corn meal instead of rice. The
problem there has been particularly
difficult because there are practically
no radios on the Islands; the OPA
has had to bring its case before the
people in primitive fashion. Open
air meetings have been held through
out the territory, and the natives
have flocked to them like circuses.
They bring refreshments and hurri-
cane lanterns. and settle down for an
evening of speechmaking.

This battalion is always called
upon to destroy surviving traces of
enemy pockets after a big battle.
this is the first time a Negro COM
bat unit has received such distin-
guished recognition.
The 969th has received double
honors. In the Battle of Colmar"
the battalion distinguished itself
again supporting the 1st French in
fantry, and the End and 5th French
divisions that were fighting in the
city of Colmar in the Alsace pocket.
In recognition of the battalion's
brilliant exploits, the mayor has
conferred the honor upon the bat
talon to use the coat of arms of
the City of Colmar. The command
ing officer, 1t. Col. Hubert D.
Barnes, told me that the battalion
would incorporate the arms in the
insignia.
The total amount of decorations
the battalion has received amounts
to IA Bronze stars, one Silver star
and one Croix de Guerre. These dec
orations cover the Normandy,
Brest and Bastogne campaigns. In
addition 20 Bronze stars have been
recommended.
The record of the 969th has been
so outstanding that it is safe to
say the battalion will at the close
of the war emerge as one of the
most formidable combat units to
have appeared on the western
front.
The battalion commander, 1t.
Col. Hubert D. Barnes from Wis
consin, Mass, is a proud man-and
justly so-at the inextinguishable
glory Of his unit. It is due to his
skill and GOODNESS in the sombre and
terrible moments that the battalion
The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1945-04-25

has achieved such a distinguished
record. In the outfit, it is the con-
census of opinion that during the
exciting days of the Bastogne bat
tie, Col. Barnes was cool, calm and
collected. He is remarkable for his
friendliness Of manner and the alb
sence of these petty jealousies
which are apt to irritate Negro sol
dies.
Understands Negro Psychology
In actual fact, Col. Barnes under
stands Negro psychology. If there
is any undercurrent of discomfort
among the men due to race, he
would not attempt to arbitrate. His
method in dealing with such an af-
fair is simple and effective. COL
Barnes would prevail upon the
most enlightened member of the
battalion to talk to the men who
are dissatisfied, and to present a
true picture of the situation. He
would purposely select a full-blood-
ed Negro in order that the men
would not think that they are being
deceived or "sold out"

attached myself to this unit and
was happy to be with it again, more
so, to learn about the true story of
Bastogone which brought the out
fit so much recognition.
The first thing the commander
told me was that the battalion had
been awarded the Presidential ci-
tation for the heroic defence in the
Battle of Bastogne. This citation
was included in the same order as
the 1O1st Airborne division. Thus
far there has been no official cere-
mony because the battalion was in
continuous action since the Bas-
togne triumph. In actual fact, the
969th has been in action continu-
ously since its appearance on the
western front last July.

r. r. Carey Retires


One Of the most forceful char
acters ever to belong to Lincoln
County, F. P. Carey, left Saturday
for Metaline Falls to make his home
with his elder daughter, Mrs. Oscar
Wolf after living in this county for
AZ years. Perhaps no other person
has served his community more
faithfully or with stronger convic
tons than has Mr.. Carey. He came
to Tobacco Plains in the summer of
1908 via the old railroad route
which ran north from Jennings in
to Canada. The nearest station to
Eureka was Hayden on the Koote-
mai Between Rexford and Gateway.
Mr. Grey filed on homestead
about three miles northwest of the
present site Of Eureka. John Quill
ling now lives on this place. The
family came the following Decem-
Der from Pennsylvania. Mr.. Carey
served as county commissioner for
two terms Of six years each, from
19l0-1916 and 1922-1928. He also
served on both the grade and high
school boards at various times. He
was chairman of the Glen Lake ir-
rigation District Board when that
district was created and was in
strumental in getting that estab-
lished. He was a lifelong staunch
Republican and never straddled the
fence on any issue, a trait which
won him many loyal friends and
not few enemies. In 1923 he left
the ranch and moved to town where
he has since resided. Mrs. Carey
passed away about four years ago.
For the past two and half years
Mr.. Carey has run the liquor store.
He also had charge Of it for Pc
riod Of four years at previous
time. Gordon Lyons has been ap-
pointed to fill the vacancy made
by Mr.. Garey's resignation.
Eureka friends will always have
latch string out to welcome Mr..
Garey's return and wish for him
many years of well earned rest and
happiness in his new home.
