gineers, Wilmington district office.
The dredge, here for channel res
toration and maintenance work in
the Cape Fear river will probably

Hiring of crews for the Huston
and the Talcott will be done at the
offices of the U. S. Employment
Service, officials stated.
The Talcott, of the Washington,
D. C, district, another government
dredge, is expected to Join the
Huston, which operates in the
Philadelphia area, on Wednesday.
The Talcott will go to work with
out delay, It was said.

80 dredge workers had congregated

neers office in the customhouse.
approximately 60 experienced

Thursday, the Huston will begin

Hinkle, who took over as manag-
er here a week ago, explained that
he had not been on the ground
long enough to have given full
survey to the local picture, but
said. they seem to be coming in
here in larger numbers each day."
He attributed some of the present
load to the laying off Of a group Of
workers at local shipyard during
the past week, and to the ever-in-
creasing number of veterans who
are returning from service.
A representative of the Cape
Fear Lumber company was at the
local USES office hiring men for
work in the pulpwood districts. The
work will entail the cutting and
handling of the wood preparatory
to shipping, Hinkle said.
In addition a number of persons
have been given temporary en-
during the Christmas
season, he remarked and said,
"the post office through L. A.
Beck, carrier foreman, has re-
quested men to aid in the post Of

|NEWSPRRT OUTPUT
TO HIT NEW HIGH

MONTREAL, Dec. 17-R)-
Canadian newsprint production
will reach an al1-time high IF g.
696, 900 tons in 1916, the Newsprint
Association of Canada estimated
today, but the organization warned
American consumers that in
creased orders would not be justi-
fled. 1885, ,--
The estimates for 1916. based on
the anticipated supply for the first
six months of the year, are $685.
900 tons or % percent above the
average for the last five years
before the war, are $500 tons or
Is per cent above the wartime av-
erage, and are 537 1000 tons or 1874
per cent above the figures for 1915.
The Newsprint Association took
pains to emphasize, however, that
total American supply from. all
sources would be only Slightly
above last year and actually be-
low the years 1941 and 1912, and
that because of an increase in the
number of users Individual con-
sumers may be little-if any-bet-
ter off than in the last quarter of
1945.
The Association pointed out that
United States rates of ordering
and consumption throughout 1945
have been considerably in excess
of actual shipments" that stocks
have been eaten into and now
are at an all-time low, and that
American production is expected
to drop to new low of II per cent
Of American consumption in 1916.

Re-Suruey OF Beach Rents
To Be Conducted By OPA

Maurice Moore, director Of the
Wilmington District Rent Control
office, announced yesterday that a
re-survey of the Wright-ville Beach
rental scene will be conducted by
OPA Rent Control investigators in
early January.
Decision to make the re-survey
was made six weeks ago follow
ing, an sopinion several months
earlier by the Atlanta regional Of
flee Of Rent Control that it would
be hazardous to lift rent cell
ings at the resort last summer.
The re-survey will be made in
sufficient time, Moore said, to
insure that a decision will be an
nounced well in advance of the
summer season. IN all probability,
Moore said, all other beach re-
sorts in this area would be affect
ed by the same decision.
Moore's disclosure of the planned
re-survey came following action
last week by the Wrightsville board
Of alderman requesting that the
OPA review the beach community
with the purpose of removing all
rent controls. Moore said his Of
flee had not yet received the
Wrightsville communication, but
added that the decision to make
the re-survey was made more
than six months ago.
Moore also disclosed that a large
number of Wrightsville landlords
had received re-adjusted rents
ceilings last spring, enabling them
to collect somewhat increased sum-
mer rents during the season past.
In all instances where increases
were granted, Moore declared,
landlords showed by record that
their winter rentals in 1914 were
virtually nil.
Few increases were allowed In
instances where landlords enjoy.
ed year-around tenants, Moore
said.
The increases allowed-and in.
creases denied-several months
ago were made by the Whining.
ton office.
Any blanket change in the beach
rent picture, however, will have
to come from the regional office il

DEATHS AFTER WITHDRAWAL.
For those who die after leaving
the Government, regardless of
length Of service, q lump sum is
also payable just as for those who
die in service. The amount of bene-
fit, however, depends on the reason
for withdrawal. Where withdrawal
Is involuntary, both accounts will
be paid. Otherwise, as previously
explained, only the individual ac-
count will be paid.
Your beneficiary should be noti-
fled that you have lump-sum insur-
ance payable by the Government
even though you are no longer in
Federal service. File a copy of
your beneficiary form with your in
surance papers In safe place.
WHEN YOU RETURN.
II you have drawn % a full re-
fund before January "A, 1912, or Cd
a partial refund that date under
the "five-year rule" you do not have
to redeposit that refund upon re-
turning to Government service. But,
If you do not repay the refund, no
credit at all for the service covered
by the refund Is counted toward
benefits. If your average salary is
below $4,000 a year and you have
80 years of service before retiring,
not counting the years covered by
the refund, do not repay. Other
wise it is definitely advisable to re-
pay the refund and get full credit.
BY repaying, you will not only earn
higher benefit on the basis of your
accounts, but the Government will
add greater share to match yours.
Redeposits may be made, with in
terest, at any time between your
return and retirement. You should,
Of course, pay when you can, but
you may wait to decide what you
want to do.
Remember, If you have received
a full refund after January "a. 1912,
because you did not meet conditions
of the "five-year rule" you must
redeposit the amount in order to get
any future annuity benefits of any
type. So, pay up as soon as possible
after you return to Federal employ
ment.

Boyington, Marine Ace Missing
20 Months, Is Reported Alive
japanese Ship Pilot
Or U. S. Flyer Believed
Source Of Story

BY the Associated Press.
ABOARD USS ANCON, TOKYO
BAY, Aug. 29.-Maj. Gregory
Boyington, 32-year-old Marine
ace of the South Pacific who was
convinced no japanese airman
could kill him, was reported
alive today, nearly 20 months
after he vanished in a cloud dur
ing an air battle over still un-
conquered Rabaul.
The report was tenuous. It was
flashed to this communications ship
from the American cruiser San
Juan.
Details were lacking. The report
was believed to have come from a
japanese pilot guiding the cruiser
into Tokyo Bay or from American
airmen on Atsugi airdrome near
Tokyo.
Maj. Boyington won the Congress
sional Medal of Honor for his air
exploits which began with the Flying
Tigers in China and extended to
New Britain Island.
Typical of Maj Eoyington's con-
fldence in his ability to come
through was his promise to members
of his Black Sheep" squadron of
Corsairs in the South Pacific that
he would see them in San Diego
bar after the war was over.
Officially credited with sending
26 enemy planes to their destruction
in Pacific actions. Maj Boyington
nevertheless is believed by his
squadron to have shot down at
least 40.
He was last seen January 3, 1914
failing japanese plane into a cloud
near Rabaui.
The former University of Wash
ington wrestling champion, fondly
nicknamed "Pappy" by his friends,
first got his aces rating in downing
five Zeros in a single engagement
over Ballale airdrome in the Solo
mons ON September 16, 1912. He
destroyed four more over Rabaul
December %, 1943, and tied the
record of 26 established by Marine
Maj. Joe Foss and Army Capt. Eddie
Rickenbacker.
His comrades. remembering his
promise to stay alive" if ever
downed and captured. had never
relinquished hope he would be found
safe, although at the time they had
searched futilely for him.
At the time of his disappearance
he was attacked by IL japanese
planes, his wingman said.
Before joining the Black Sheep
Squadron Maj. Boyington had bag
ged six bombers with the American
Volunteer Group in China.
This noted Marine pilot was born
at Occur. d'Alene, Idaho, and lived
at Okanogan and Seattle, Wash, be-
fore entering the service.
