Preston Hudson Post
Adopts Resolutions
At Recent Meet

The American Legion's Showdown
fight in Congress for immediate en-
actment Of its plan of Universal
Training for National Security has
the full endorsement of local Legion
naires. .l..4of st
The Preston Hudson Post No. 10 Of
Durant has adopted a resolution
Fundamentally supporting the Spe-
cial National Security Committee Of
the American Legion, headed BY
Past National Commander Warren
H. Anterior of Stockton, Calf, -
executive director, and of its Ma
tional Legislative Committee, in
their efforts to secure passabe of the
amended Gurney-May Bill now
pending before Congress, Post Com
mander S. r. King announced today.
The Legion plan for a civilian-ad-
ministered training program has
been incorporated into the revised
Gurney-May Bill, Commander King
said.
"The Legion plan of universal
training is the best yet advanced
for both the alton and its young
men," Commander King said. 1T is
integrated with the boys education
and with his business career. 1t is a
sound and sensible program"
Options Provided
A years military, naval or air
training is provided for all Ameri-
can youths upon reaching the age
of 18 under the Legion plan, accord
ing to Commander King. The years
training, he said, would be divided
into period. The first period would
be four months of basic training,
starting about June l of each year.
Thereafter the trainee would have
his choice of five options for compile
ton of the remainder of the requir-
ed training or its equivalent.
He could 60 on to college and en-
roll in the ROTC. Or he could pro-
coed with his business career and
list for a period of three years in the
National Guard or a functioning unit
of the Organized Reserve Corps Or
he could, if qualified, be selected for
advanced technical or scientific
training, which could be given in
the armed forces, at a college or uni
versity, or in approved schools Of in
dustry Or he could remain in the
armed forces for the remainder Il
the year. Or he colla enlist in the
or Marine Corps for Z
regular enlistment period.
Commander King urges the indi-
vidual citizens to contact their Sem
ators and Congressman to urge them
to support the Gurney-May Bill be-
cause we are confronted with GER
tain grim and unacceptable facts. We
must face them and devaluate them
cold bloodedly. Two elemental facts
stand out.
Zone is the lesson of the cost in
American lives, blood and treasure
of our unpreparedness in the past.
We must realize we cannot continue
banking indefinitely on u luck.
The next time we are likely to be
Target No. and may not have
friends to hol dour enemies at bay
while we frenziedly start getting
ready to defend ourselves.
The other is that the atomic bomb
has revolutionized warfare. Gone
is the day when warfare was in the
hand-weapon stage. Gone is the day
when a million patriots could spring
to arms overnight. Warfare has en-
tered the scientific stage. Our future
warriors must be scientists, technic-
ians and specialists. They must be
trained in advance"

Rationing News

Fire Arms Registration seems to
remain before the Legislature from
last week, as far as information at
hand goes. The House made the
registration apply to machine guns
and "sawed-on shotguns". The first
is covered by Federal law which
makes them illegal to own or trans
port across state lines. What would
be classed as . sawed-off shotgun
is not clear. Our laws prevent the
carrying Of concealed weapons and
no further. law on that is needed. AS
for registration of arms by such peo-
pie as want them for wicked pur-
poses, one would have to be simple
minded to think they would 60 to
the Sheriff's office and declare own
ership. But all (maybe) law abiding
people would feel compelled to COM
ply with the law. The Sheriff would
have to keep the record in alpha
betical order on records furnished
by the Board of Supervisors. He
would have to send full copies to
some state agency in Jackson, where
they would have to be kept in order.
At both places the record would be
open to inspection by any one at all
office hours. Nice way for the evil
minded to find out all about guns
owned. AS for military rifles-so

I had to admit he vas right How ever. if East had passed instead Of bidding two spades and had opened a small club O. the queen of spades, I do not think that North and South would have liked it. But, playing horse sense" bridge, as Sam says, East made the contract.
 The opening club lead was won in dummy with the king, and a small spade was won by East's jack. As South had bid diamonds, East led that suit. South played low and dummy's jack won. The ace of clubs was cashed and an other spade led from dummy North again played low, declarer won with the queen and cashed the queen and jack of clubs, discarding two hearts from dummy. Next he led diamond, South went in with the king of spades, East discarding one of his small hearts
 Now he conceded heart and a spade to North, making his con- tract with an overtrick.

Commercial Laundries
Protest 0PA Charges
OF Violating Ceilings

The Laundry Owners Association
protested today that OPA must
have meant hand laundries in stat
ing that more than one-third of 302
Washington retail laundries sur
veyed were overcharging customers.
st don't know what they can
mean except hand laundries,"
George N. Walker, executive secre-
tary of the Laundry Owners Asso-
citation, said. There are only 80
power laundries in the District-41
altogether in the Washington Metro
po1itan Area"
The OPA release made public to-
day said that 127 of 302 retail laun-
dries visited here were overcharg-
Ing.
Various Types Surveyed.
Mrs. Jean Putnam of the District
oRA, who supervised the survey,
said the 302 places called on were
stores owned by power laundries,
agencies for power laundries, and
hand laundries. She was unable to
say whether the violations were
prevalent in any one of the three
types of establishments surveyed.
She said the survey was made be-
fore an OPA regulation of January
%, under which prices are now put
on the packages by the power laun-
dries for their stores and agencies.
a regulation which makes it easier
for the housewife to check and forl
the laundry to comply with OPA
price ceilings.
Thirteen items under price con-
troll were selected for checking, the
release said, and of total of 1926
items checked, ITO were found to be |
over OPA ceiling prices.
Items checked, according to the
release, were shirts, collars, under
shirts, shorts, pajamas, socks, hand
kerchiefs, overalls, coveralls, pants
boys blouses, sheets and pillow cases.
The largest number of violations
was in overalls, the release said.
The second was in pajamaS.
Violations Slight.
while less than 5 per cent of
nearly 1000 items were over CELL
ing prices, and many of these only
l or 2 cents above the ceiling prices,
they nevertheless contribute to the
tens of millions of dangerous pen
MES in the inflationary pressures
which the consumer should resist
and report to his local Price Con-
troll Board as the consumers part
in the fight against imitation" Vim
cent A. Holmes, District OPA di-
rector, said in the release.
The majority of violations were
adjusted during the survey, the
OPA said, but those appearing to
be Intentional were referred to the
price panels of the District Price
Control Boards. A survey will be
made during March of all the laun-
dries not covered in the February
survey, the OPA release said.
