Jet Propelled
Plane Spotted
Here Friday

Marysville residents who hap
pened to be on the street at the
time and looking in the proper dir
ection were treated to a glimpse
of one of the u. S. army'S jet-pro-
PEELED airplanes in flight over the
town about 10:30 a. m. today.
Folks indoors who heard the
screaming sound which character
ICES the planes flight, and rushed
outdoors to see what it was, were
not so lucky. The plane is so fast
that by the time its sound reaches
one ears, the plane itself is out of
sight.
The jet plane, one of the first
ever seen over MarySville, was a
P-80 Shooting Star" and was
probably on an experimental flight
from Wright Field near Dayton.
1t approached Marysville from the
southwest, circled over the town
and sped back in that direction.
The P-80 has made recorded
flights of more than 700 miles per
hour. but its top speed is a secret.
However, individuals who have
seen its performance at air shows,
etc, claim the only way they can
watch its flight directly overhead
is to spot it as it approaches from
a distance and kept their eyes dir
ectly upon it every second.

A request to the public that
there be no more changing to gas
heat from other fuels, this season,
was made today in a statement is
sued by Paul c.. Miller, district
manager, the Ohio Fuel Gas COM
pany.
"The unprecedented requests for
changing to gas heat threaten to
tax our transmission and diStribu-
ton systems beyond the limits of
good service" Mr. Miller said.
This comes at a time when it
is impossible to secure pipe, fit
ingS, and compresSors necessary to
handle the overwhelming demand.
Those who have been trying to
buy an automobile, soap chips
white shirts, or other scarce items
will understand our position. We
are trying to spend some 25 million
dollars to improve facilities for
bringing gas from the abundant
fields or supply to your premises.
Because of the dire shortage of
necessary materials and skilled
manpower to install them, only a
fraction of this 25 million can be
spent this year."
Mr.. Miller said that some of the
orders for pipe placed last year
are not promised until 1947. AS
example of major construction pro-
jects that are being held up, he
said that a new, large compressor
station near the Ohio River, in

COUNTY'S MILK
YIELD UP

Union county residents will con-
sumo more than 100000 quarts
of milk and milk productes this
year in maintaining the county's
high nutritional standards, it was
predicted today by the nation S
leading distributor of dairy pro-
ducts.
with record supply of milk
coming from the nations dairy
farms, consumption of dairy pro-
ducts this year will nearly equal
that of 1945 when more than co.
OOO,OOO,OO0 quarts were consum-
ed" said G. w. Diehl, head OF a
chain stores national dairy de-
partment. "A % per cent increase
in per capita consumption of milk
during the war years helped over
come the loss of nutrition caused
by curtailed supplies of fats and
oils and helped bring about the
nations high nutritional wartime
levels"
An increased supply OF most
cheese products is now available
in many sections of the country
and other milk products are ex-
pected to be adequate during the
fall and winter months, Diehl said.
These products contain nearly L
per cent of the calories, "a per
cent of the proteins, 18 per cent
of the fats, IA per cent of the cal
cium and AS per cent of theribo-
flavin consumed by the average
individual.
The pioneering efforts OF the
food chains in developing a stream
lined distribution system, Diehl
said, have made possible the quick
movement of milk and milk pro-
ducts from dairy centers to dense
ly populated consumer areas. Mod
ern refrigeration equipment and
improved handling methods were
also cited as instrumental in main
tanning the high nutritional quail
ties of dairy products.
Union county'S 2,240 farms are
expected to produce more than
sc. 100000 quarts of milk this year.

not speak for us and our churches. I"
The State body's resolution said
the bomb should be used, if neces-
sary, ito preserve liberty and peace"
and asserted that I'VE are grateful
to God that he gave the bomb to the
forces Of freedom first"
The State council opposed "any
thought Of giving the secret of the
atomic bomb to any nation that
does not possess our concept of
freedom under God" 10
The council also went on record
requesting President Truman to
change the name of his airplane
from "the Sacred Cow" title
which it termed offensive to the
Christian conscience of our land.

Three policemen participated in

booty on the street. The culprits
and fowl were captured after a
lively bit of sprinting through the

Free Trade Policy Set in 1909.
Congress enacted policy of free
trade for Philippine sugar in 1903.
Its production and export to the
United States steadily increased
thereafter. In 1888 it reached a
total Of 1,241,20 short tons. The
following year the Jones-C -Costigan
Sugar Act was put through, appor-
tloning sugar quotas among domes-
tic producers Gncluding those in
Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the Vir-
gin Islands,, and foreign producers
(Cuba and others), with the Philip
pine Islands in separate catagory.
The domestic quota, which In
cludes cane and beet sugar, has not
come into direct competition with
the Philippine quota, but rather in
to competition with Cuba quota
plus the Philippine. 1t is clear,
therefore, that cut in the Philip
pine quota stands to improve the
Cuban situation.
Opposition to the Bell bill has
been found, it is said, in the State
Department-though not on the
highest levels. 1t is pointed out
that such a policy adopted by this
country toward its former depend
ent might have repercussions for

La Guordiu Held Well Equipped

An outspoken opponent of Hit
ler's regime and the fascism of
Italy, Mr.. La Guardia ran for a third
term, suppressing his own desires to
get into the war, because the late
President Roosevelt insisted no one
could so well handle Americas
largest and most polyglot city during
wartime. Despite all the stresses
and strains of the global conflict,
the great city of New York, from
whose harbor went millions Of
troops and countless tons of war
time equipment, functioned with
CLASSY smoothneSs.
La Guardia voluntarily, stepped
down last fall and did not seek a
fourth term against the Tammany
candidate, Mayor William O'Dwyer,
whom he had decisively defeated
four years before. He has been
broadcasting and writing a news
paper column since January l.
The chubby ex-Mayor, now 63,
dares not eat starch or sugar but
is otherwise at the top of his form.

Fiorello H. La Guardia's long
service in the House that provided
him with an intimate understand
ing of the mechanics of Congress
will be Of considerable value If he
accepts the leadership of the Uni
ted Nations Relief and Rehabilita-
ton Administration.
No one knows better than he
what makes the wheels turn on
Capitol Hill, and it is still said ad-
miringly in debate that he was one
Of the hardest working men ever to
come to Washington. Even con-
servatives, panied by his liberal
views, confess to warm affection for
him.
It Is thought here that the quail
ties necessary to UNRRA are pos
sessed in overwhelming degree by
Mr.. La Guardia.
No cause is dearer to the fiery
public servant who broke all tradi-
tion by three terms as Mayor OF
New York during one Of the most
crucial periods in American history
The son 'of an Army bandmaster
who was Italian-born, and an
Austrian-Jewish mother, Mr.. La
Guardia became Mayor during the
depression, With fabulous vigor he
threw himself into the public works

cited with something like that in
mine.
The influence of Senator Byrd's
committee is considerable and the
question of the slowness of Govern
ment demobiliZation appears GER
tain to figure in final House and
Senate consideration of the Federal
pay bill.
Last month, Federal employment
in Washington actually increased by
$500 workers. Government employ
ment throughout the country de-
creased by approximately 1000.
Government officials declared this
week that the original estimate of a
reduced Federal pay roll of 2,000,-
900 persons by June, 1916, and
100000 by June, 1947, will be
reached despite the slow pace of re-
ductions during the past few
months. There are now about
100000 Government workers, a
drop of about 100000 since the end
Of the war. 49,
Several reasons for the slow pace
are cited by Federal officials. They
point out that the majority of work
ers are employed in the War and
Navy Departments. The rapid de-
mobilization of Army and Navy
personnel, many of whom occupied
desk jobs" has thrown the burden
on civilian employees and caused a
marked slowness in reducing civilian
jobs. Another reason advanced was
the return to Government service of
thousands of servicemen who are
entitled to get their jobs back by
law.
