CLARENCE BARTELL WILL
ASSIST VA REP. LAWLOR

Services to the veterans in Lake,
Flathead and Lincoln counties by
the Veterans Administration will be
increased in the near future with
the assignment of a second Vet
Grams Administration contact repre-
sentative to the Kalispell contact
office, announced Earl v Lawlor,
contact representative in Kalispell.
Clarence Bartell of Great Falls,
a Navy veteran of three years ser
vice has been assigned to the Kalis-
pell office to assist Lawlor. Mr..
Bartell has been associated with the
Veterans Administration sine e
March. 1916 and is familiar with
VA procedures. Being a veteran,
he understands problems facing
the veteran today, Mr.. Lawlor said.
With the influx of population in
to the Kalispell area it is felt that
additional assistance is needed to
render efficient service to the vet
eran and his dependents.
The addition of Mr.. Bartell to
the VA staff will enable full time
occupancy of the Kalispell office
plus greater itinerant service to
communities in Lake, Flathead and
Lincoln counties, Mr.. Lawlor en-
phasized.

MORE HOUSE PAINT
FOR SPRING

A summary of the house paint
situation and the present outlook
is contained in statement just re-
ceived by E. E. Jaqueth, local Sher-
win Williams dealer.
The release states: House paint
has been extremely scarce due to
severe shortages in lead, zinc, tita-
Mum, linseed OIL and packages
which have prevented us from
manufacturing any appreciable
quantity of house paint for many
months.
IN fact, there is a backlog which
represents constant shortages dur
ing the war period with a con-
sequently heavy demand. While
most of the raw materials are still
in severely short supply, by care
full planning and co-ordinating,
aided by slight improvement in in
coming receipts of titanium and
steel for packages, we can now see
our way clear to again make house
paint. In keeping with our policy
which was maintained throughout
the war, we will make only top
quality"
Inc mouse paint production Scne-
dule now under way calls for a
stepped-up monthly gallonage thru
the Spring season until a 100000
gallon schedule is completed
The Sherwin- Williams dealers are
being given their house paint allo-
cations and an opportunity to place
their orders. Supplies of this plant
will be sold on a first-come, first
serve basis, even with the greater
availability of paint, the demand is
such that there probably will not
be enough to go around.
