County Chairman
Named For Red
Cross Fund Drive

A. p. May, County Chairman
of the Jackson County Chapter
of the American Red Cross an
nounced the appointment of Karl
Wiesenburg, %Pascagoula attorney,
and Commander Of Elmer Joseph
Grant Post No. 1878. Veterans
of Foreign Wars, as the l947
Fund Chairman for the annual
drive which commences on
March LIST. Mr.. Wiesenburg an
nounced that George Harrison,
Commander of Post 100 of the
American Legion would act as
the Chairman fof Pascagoula,
and that other appointments
would be made shortly.
In accepting the appointment
Mr.. Wiesenburg said The declar-
alton of an end to hostilities by
our President emphasizes the
fact that we have passed a long
period of emergency and crisis.
During the time the people of
jackson County unstintaingly
met every request by the Amer
lean Red Cross for funds to
carry on its great work OF ser
vice to veterans and their fam
lies. But the work of the Amer
lean Red Cross goes on, whether
in war or peace. Its outstanding
record in disaster relief IS too
well known for any necessity or
comment, and the import work
il does in peace time is carried
out solely by the voluntary con-
tributions of the American peo-
pie, who receive the benefit of
It's services
This year 1872 cents of every
dollar received by the Red Cross
in Jackson County will be re-
tanned by it for varying on the
services of its chapter. There
are few, if any Of the citizens
ef this county who do not know
the great work that has been
carried on by our county Chap
ter and its able corps of volun-
teer workers.
The funds that will be donat-
ed during this campaign for the
contribution of the essential
work of our local chapter, and
the proportionately small amount
that will be forwarded to the
National Red Cross will not be
a donation, but an investment.

'Ho|iday-Like' Buying
Reported From Many
Districts in Russia

MOSCOW. Dec. 17.-Izvestia pub
lished dispatches from many parts
of the Soviet Union today reporting
that since rationing was abolished
Sunday, there has been wide scale
consumer buying in a "holiday-like'
atmosphere.
Russian citizens currently are
trading their old rubles for new at
rates varying up to 10 to /. The
currency revaluation and the end
Of rationing were announced in the
same edict.
Izvestia said 10000 retail stores
had been repaired or organized anew
in a short period, and were selling
goods.
"The stores have large quantities
of goods" the newspaper said.
The article cited the trade minis
tries of Armenia, Moldavia and
Uzbekistan. however, as Tagging
behind" in the development OF
trade.
Farmer Markets Urged.
"The network of stores in Chelya-
binsk, Rostov and Kirov regions is
not sufficiently organized" the
article said. Many stores remain
unoccupied and the law giving
ground floors in certain new build
ings to stores has not been carried
out everywhere. It is now up to the
workers that all mass goods should
reach the consumers and rapidly.
Collective stores and cooperative
stores should be organized more
energetically and more farmer
markets should be set up"
The article said collective farms
were selling more produce to the
state and that a huge amount of
business had been done Throughout
the Soviet Union on Monday. Many
stories were said to have doubled
their staffs. -
The gaStronomeS-Moscow's super
delicatessens-also are selling un-
rationed food now. Foreigners who
formerly had their own gastronome
to sell them their rationed food now
have been told by Russian author
tiles they must purchase on the same
bases as all Soviet citizens, through
regular retail channels. This also
affects diplomats.
THE consumer is boss" Izvestia
said.
Moscow Has 800 New Stores.
The newspaper said 800 new stores
and $50 kiosks had been opened in
Moscow and that more than 1000
stores now were selling bread in the
capital. Similar conditions were
said to prevail in Leningrad.
A dispatch from Kiev, capital of
the Ukraine, said 400 new stores
were opened there and that sales
of bread had tripled. At Minsk, 80
new stores and kiosks were opened.
Izvestia said hardly any bread
queues existed.
A Tashkent dispatch said buy
ing was in progress without inter-
ruption. A Kharkov dispatch said
serious deficiencies" had developed
in the preparation of stores for
business and that in one district
there was not enough food.
