LOCAL HOODLUMS
ATTACK AGAIN

An enlistee standing in the bus
zone at 9th and Cross Streets,
about ten o'clock Monday night
to board a West Ninth Street bus
is the latest reported victim of
the night riding hoodlums.
The victim was a veteran of
World War II, having served five
years, with three spent overseas,
was struck with a blunt object,
according to his testimony, by an
occupant of an automobile bear
ing the same description given by
former victims.
The victim had just re-enlisted
in the army for three years.
The style of the hoodlums' at
tack is to travel up and down bus
lines looking for Would-be bus
passengers waiting for buses, and
when they are caught off guard,
the hoodlums swerve to the curb
and some one from the car
strikes. This display of vandal-
ism has been going on for several
months in the city with a remote
possibility of a let up.

Committee met at the Central
High School here Tuesday, jan

farming and to adopt a county
plan of work whereby the prob
lens of farming may be assisted
through the Agricultural Exten-
sion Service.
The county plans were present
ed by V. o. White, county agent,

and labor-saving devices be used
and that health and safety cam
paign be conducted throughout
the county which will avoid many
days being lost from unnecessary
illness and accidents. He also
recommended many home i'm
provements and a wholesome rec
reational program in order to
make rural life more attractive.
Prof. H. c. Ray, District Agent,
of Little Rock, discussed the out
look of farming and stated that
the farmers may depend upon a
market where substantial profit
can be made if the farmers will
use recommended improvement
practices.

sentative of the Productive Mar
keting Association, explained the
changes in the AAA program.
He also told what prices the
farmers will get in the soil build

The telephone company
reports to those waiting
for service

The telephone company is anxious to bring you the
service you We ordered.
Telephone factories working hard at the ire
mendoustas of catching up with America backed-up
demand for telephone service. More than 100000
people are waiting throughout the nation)
In December factories were making telephone in
struments at the rate of 100000 month. BY
January l. in the five states served by this company,
about 10000 of these newly manufactured instru-
ments already had been installed.
But making and installing telephone instruments
is only part of the job of providing service for
everybody. We are planning making, and installing
the great volume of swchboards dial equipment
cable, wire-and even buiIdngs-necessary to make
those telephones work.
BY the years end, enough central office equipment
to connect 10000 additional telephones had been
made and installed in this company's territory. This
is the tme-taking part of the job-the apparatus is
complicated to make and complicated to install.
Equipment for 10000 telephones must be wired to
handle nearly 80 million possible telephone connec-
tons. We're pushing this complex job as fast as we
can; it will take time but we're doing our best to
take as little time possible.
Miles and miles of cable to connect telephones with
central offices have been put in since the end of the
war; and in the last few weeks by of increased
supplies of men and material the rate of installation
has doubled.
We have made progress-and every month during
the coming year our progress will be still more rapid
Everyone will get service in his proper turn Your serv
ice once ordered, you be sure that your appca-
ton is before us; and the equipment is
available to connect your telephone, we will notify
you and arrange details for providing your sn,mQss
