Modern Styling Seen
In 1916 Chevrolet

Modern styling that accentuates
massiveness in smart, low, sleek
lines characterizes the new 1916
models of Chevrolet-the nations
No. l sales volume motor car in 10
OF the last IL years of peacetime
automotive production.
The new vehicles are presented
in three lines, including the Style
master, offering unusual refinements
in the lowest price bracket; the
Fleetmaster, still further advanced
in finish and appointments, and the
Fleetline, most attractively styled
model that Chevrolet has ever offer
ed.
Outstanding style distinction is
Immediately apparent in the stun
ming array of colors and color COM
binations in which the 1916 Chevro-
lets are making their debut. For
every regular model throughout the
whole line there is a choice of six
different color schemes. A range of
three solid colors is provided, and in
addition, ultra-smart two-tone hues
are available upon specification, all
in the newest and most appealing
shades. All details of stripping and
trim harmonic tastefully and con-
tribute further to outstanding smart
appearance.
Striking effects are achieved
through advanced treatment of color
combinations. Rich shades in the
darker hues r used on the upper
structure, blending tremendously
with lighter shades below the belt
molding, thus achieving an exqui-
site note in exterior styling.
First to come from the production
lines is the popular Stylemaster
sport sedan, a four-door model which
is being featured in initial displays
in dealer showrooms throughout the
country today. AS material avail
ability and manufacturing are ex-
banded, it is planned to broaden pro-
duction schedules to include possibly
such models as town sedans, bust
hess coupes and other types. Fleet
master and Fleetline output will fol-
low as soon as conditions permit.
Stylists and designers have i'm
parted to the interiors of these new
models an appealing beauty that
enhances their ample roominess and
that matches in every respect the
smartness and brilliance of the dis
tinctive exteriors. Two-tone treat
ment of instrument panels and win
dow holdings provides a refreshing
touch in interior finish. The 1916
cars surpass in fine appearance any
thing that Chevrolet has offered in
the past
Bonafide new, 1916 models sound
ing an entirely different note in
styling, the latest Chevrolet cars
make their bid for continued domin-
c Of the volume market on the
unequivocal basis of quality in de-
sign, engineering, styling, perform
ance, economy and dependabiIty.

Holmes Land Owners
May Earn S Acre
For Planting Trees

The 1916 Agricultural Conserva-
ton Program contains specifications
which will permit the farm wood
land owners of Holmes county to
earn $500 per acr for planting
farm woodland trees of the follow
ing species: Pines, cedars, cypress,
black walnut, black locust, oak, ash,
hickories, bois Dare. cottonwood,
red mulberry, and yellow poplar,
State Forester Albert A. Legett an
nounced this week.
ut is also possible, stated Mr..
Legett, "for farm woodland owner
to earn at least $500 per acre for
timber stand improvement of farm
woodlands. The specifications under
this phase of the program require
that the woodland must have more
than $50 good, straight, clear, and
d~isease-free trees at least 6 inches
in diameter or 800 trees at least 3
inches in diameter per acre after
carrying out the following practices:
l. The removal of dead, diseased,
limby (wolf trees) or hollow-butted
trees and trees that are too crooked
or too limby to be of commercial
value and non-commercial trees.
2. The thinning and pruning of a
stand of trees that has become stunt
ed from overcrowding, leaving at
least $50 good, straight, clear, dis
ease-free trees 6 inches in diameter
or 800 similar trees 3 inches in
diameter.
3. The close-pruning of the trunk
to at least II feet of at least so
potential timber trees per acre.
These trees must be 8 inches OF more
in diameter.
A total Of 80 cents per 100 linear
feet may also be earned for the
construction of firebreaks on farm
woodlands. These firebreaks must
be 10 feet wide and cleared of all
inflammable material. In order to
earn this payment the woodland
must be blocked in areas contain
ing 40 acres or less. Barriers such
as farm roads, streams, cultivated
fields, and artificial firebreaks must
be used to protect the areas from
fire. Artificial firebreaks may be
constructed either by blowing two
burrows 40 feet apart and burning
the inflammable material between
or flat-breaking a 10 foot wide strip.
Firebreaks should be constructed on
the contour to prevent erosion.
THE Mississippi Forestry Com
mission, stated MIR. Legett, urges
every farmer who has woodlands
on his farm to take advantage of
these payments and provide for fire
protection. 1t is also an excellent
opportunity for the farmer to secure
aid in buying seedlings for planting
on farm woodlands. Labor for all the
cost of planting amounts to about
$3.50 per acre. So the $500 payment
for planting will cover approximate
ly three-fourths of the total cost and
where the farmer has his own labor
he can actually earn money under
this payment plan"
The State Forest Service has the
following species Of Seeding trees
available at the State Nursery for
shipment this season: Loblolly, long
Leaf, shortleaf and slash pine; black
locust, and a small quantity Of
catalpa. The prices are $2.lo per
thousand for the pines and $3.50 per
thousand for the hardwoods. Orders
may be placed through the Missis-
sippi Forest Service at Jackson, or
any county agent, or area forest
ranger of the State Forest Service.

men, the President and his wife walked down the steps, across the lawn and around a fountain to the high iron fence which fronts the White House on Pennsylvania Avenue.
 There the President waved and smiled to the crowd. Then he spoke:
 | Ladies and gentlemen, this is the day We have been looking for since December 2, 1941.
 This is the day when Fascism and police government ceases in the world
 This is the day for the demo- cracies
 | This is the day when we can start on our real task of implemen- taticn of free government in the i world.
 We are faced with the greatest task we have ever been faced with. The emergency is as great as it was on December 2, 1941.
 Tt is going to take the help of all of us to do it. I know we are going to do it."
 What It Means For millions of Americans, for hundreds of millions of Allied people, his surrender announce ment signifed victory, peace and the eventual return of loved ones from war To millions who sleep beneath stark white crosses, it meant their sacrifices had not been in vain.
 For Japan, as for already van quished Germany, it meant the end of savage conquest and aggres- sicn, dismemberment of an empire won by blood-spilling, disarmament and occupation.
 Those were the terms of the AL lied Declaration of Potsdam, de- creeing unconditional surrender, to which Japan acceded.
 Once the Japanese sphere had stretched from Attu to Timor and Java and India. Once Japan kept half billion people enslaved under iron rule, and threatened to en- fold another half billion.
 Now she is defeated-without in- vasion-but at terrific cost.
 For the United States, the price of victory in World War II was more than a million casualties, an expenditure of some $500, 0,000, ,000 900.

arms, and to issue such other orders as the Supreme Commander may require to give effect to the SUI render terms.
 Immediately upon the surrender the Japanese Government shall transport prisoners of war and civilian internees to places of safety, as directed, where they can quickly be placed aboard Allied Transports.
 The ultimate form of government of Japan shall, in accordance With the Potsdam Declaration, be es- abolished by the freely expressed will of the Japanese people.
 The armed forces of the Allied Powers will remain in Japan until the purposes set forth in the Pots dam Declaration are achieved.

 Japan shall be permitted to maintain such industries as will sustain her economy and permit the payment of just reparation in kind, but not those industries which will enable her to rearm.
 To this end access to, as dis tinguishe0 from control of, raw materials shall be permitted. Even tual Japanese participation in world trade relations shall be per- mitted.
 The occupying forces of the AL lies shall be withdrawn from Japan as soon as these objectives have been accomplished and there has been established in accordance with the freely expressed will of the Japanese people peacefully in- clined and responsible government.
 We call upon the Government of Japan to proclaim now the uncon- ditional surrender of all Japanese armed forces, and to provide proper and adequate assurances of their good faith in such action. The al- formative for Japan is prompt and utter destruction.

 From the moment of surrender the authority of the Emperor and the Japanese Government to rule the state shall be subject to the Supreme Commander of the Allied Powers who will take such steps as he deems proper to effectuate the surrender terms.
 The Emperor will be required to authorize and insure the signature by the Government of Japan and the Japanese Imperial General Headquarters of the surrender terms necessary to carry out the provisions of the Potsdam Declara- tion, and shall issue his command to all the Japanese military, naval and air authorities and to all of he forces under their control wherever located to cease active operations and to surrender their
