eligible are mothers, wives, sisters
and daughters of Legion members
or deceased veterans, and women
who were themselves in military
service. The local unit is inviting
all eligible women to come into the
organization and take part in the
1947 activities.
Training of all young men in
skills necessary to the defense of
the nation is essential for national
security in the uncertain world of
today, Mrs. Starkey, national de-
Tense chairman of Laurel unit of
the American Legion Auxiliary,
told a meeting of the unit.
The training plan being advocat-
ed by the American Legion and
Auxiliary was described by Mrs.
Starkey as follows:
"All young men at the age of
IS, or upon graduation from high
school, would enter the national
security training corps, which would
be under civilian administration and
not part of the armed forces.
Training would be divided into
two periods, basic and advanced.
Basic training of 16 weeks would
be given in camps or bases as close
to the trainee's home as possible,
preferably during the summer after
graduation from high school.
"Choice of one of six plans would
be offered the t~rainees for advanc-
ed training of SO weeks or equiva-
lent. They could study courses re-
lated to national security in schools
or colleges; enter college ROTC
training; enter the military or
naval academies; enlist in the reg
ular armed forces for "a months;
enlist in the national guard or or
ganized reserves for SO months, or
take advanced training in the nat
ional security training corps for Sc
weeks.
young men not qualified to take
military training would be given
So weeks of training in vacations,
skills or services of value to the
military security of the nation"
A bill embodying the universal
training plan is now before con-
gress and the Legion and Auxiliary,
as well as many other organiza-
tions and individuals, are urging its
enactment.

Lean Sausage

One part fat to three or four parts
lean makes sausage of best quail
ity which will fry itself and not be
too dry. Add five teaspoons salt,
four teaspoons sage and two tea
spoons black pepper for each four
pounds of mixed meat. For even
distribution, sprinkle the seasoning
over the meat before it is ground.
Grind meat coarsely the first time
and as finely as desired the second
time. Double grinding thoroughly
mixes fat, lean and seasoning.

Rapid growth of the American
Legion Auxiliary is continuing

to Mrs. Albertus, member chairman

Aiming at a 1947 goal of one
million members, the Auxiliary is
continuing to enroll women eligible

Indian Legend

According to Indian legend,
wishes made at the Hassayampa
Wishing Well, near Wickenburg,
Ariz., will come true if, after drink
ing the water, the person making
the wish faces north and losses a
coin into the well. Many tourists
who visit this scene take advantage
of this ancient legend.

Rest Shoes

Change shoes frequently. Keeping
two pairs of general purpose shoes
always in condition and alternating
them every day gives the shoes a
chance to crest" between wearings.
They will hold their shape better
and wear longer.

A Nuzi DoubIe-C Gross

One of Hitler's typically fantastic
schemes when chances for victory first
began to appear slim in 1913 was for
a double-cross involving a secret truce
with Russia. In this way, the Fuehrer
reasoned, Russia could continue to re-
ceive American Lend-Lease aid and
Germany would be able to concen-
trate all her forces in the west.
The German documents, made pub
lie in Washington and London, did not
make clear whether the proposal ever
was submitted to Moscow.
"We can hope to win the war only
if we stop expending our forces in the
east" read the minutes of a confer
ence between Hitler and his COM
manders. $50 far Japan has not been
used for this purpose, for fear Of
weakening Japan in the south by en-
gaging her in the north. Also, she
might not be able to muster the neces-
sary supplies for both fronts.
Russia is getting considerable sup
plies via the far east. Therefore the
question arises whether a threat by
Japan that she will enter the war
against Russia will help to make the
latter accept the German offer of I'M
announced armistice on the eastern
front, to be kept secret from the
Anglo-Saxons.
Russia could continue to accept
Lend-Lease. This political goal is
worth every sacrifice"
The documents also disclosed that
the Nazis plotted seizure or sinking of
the Italian fleet should Italy surrender.

Youth Defes Chiuna

Chang Kai-shek's hard-pressed Ma
tionalist government met defiance by
striking Chinese college students in
half a dozen major cities last week
along with fresh reverses on the far
northern battlefronts.
Government dispatches acknowl-
edged Chinese Communist gains in
Manchuria-where the capital, Chang
chun, was under martial law as Red
armies drew nearer and in Shensi
province in North China.
Thousands of university students
demonstrated violently in Marking,
Peiping and Shanghai and called for
a general strike June 2 to back up
their demands that the civil war be
halted Immediately.
Earlier the generalissimo issued a
written manifesto to an estimated
$4,000 striking students in 16 univer-
sites. In it he banned student demon
STATIONS with a threat of drastic gov
eminent action to quell disturbances
and called their demands %"unreason-
able" and "Communist-inspired."
Striking student leaders denied any
prompting by political groups. They
met his breakdown order with re-
newed demonstrations. They sought
an end to civil war, they said, be-
cause it ruined production and caused
imitation which intensified their own
economic ills.

Porochuting to Palestine

Rabbi Baruch Korf, United Nations
observer for the Political Action Com
mittee for Palestine, reported in New
York that his organization has been
dropping European refugee Jews into
Palestine by parachute.
"We have been warned by the Brit
ish to halt these operations" Korff
said. "Of course, this will only in
tensify our preparations"
He disclosed that Jews had been
"repatriated by air" during the past
month by chartered planes that made
the round trip from secret landing
fields in 10 hours. He said former
American naval and army officers
were supervising the program.
British sources in Palestine denied
any aerial activity. They said uniden-
tilted planes would have been shot
down long before reaching the Holy
Land.
