Good Navy Jobs For
Ambitious Young Men

An expanding U. S. Navy today
that pOtentialities for
better jobs for ambitious young
men in the Sussex County area are
greater now than they have been
in the past.
Navy recruiting officers said the
reason is because of rapid expan-
sion" which, as in past actual war
time, means that more and more
jobs become open as more men are
enlisted. Recruiting Offices are en-
larged, which means that more
yeomen and storekeepers and other
ratings are necessary; more ships
are being commissioned which
means more men are needed to
man them.
There are 81 specialties and a
young man may seek the one that
best suits his talents and desires, .
Chief Recruiter Emerson SmOOt,
CMC, USN, said. "Of course when
a man is enlisted in the Navy as a
recruit, it is up to his intelligence
and ability to compete with other
men of his age for the jobs that
are Open," Chief Smoot added.
The Navy offers well-paid per-
manent jobs to men with ambition
and willingness to study for them
Chief SmOOt said. And he compar-
ed the operation of the Navy as al
organization not too different from

1850 Model War Controls

WASHINGTON The government

del, has now been nodded into de-
Unable shape.
It's structurally different from
what it was in 1910, when the
United States first assumed its hiss
toric role as the arsenal Of demo-
cracy although it is designed to do
the same jobs. 1t is making, pri-
marily, Of established government
agencies to handle the vastly COM
pick problems Of priorities, allO-
cations, controls, quotas etc.
The President, using the control
powers in the Defense PrOduc-
ton Act of 1850, set the pattern in
his executive order of Sept. 8. He
delegated his production mObiliZa-
ton powers to various cabinet
members and to the Interstate
Commerce Commission ICC).
To the Department of Interior
went the responsibility for petrol
cum, gas, coal, minerals and cleo
trio power. To the Agri., Depart
ment went food, fiber, lumber, raw
tobacco, farm equipment and COM
mercial fertilizer. To the ICC went
the responsibility for domestic
transportation, storage and port
facilities, excluding air transport
and salt water shipping. To COM
merce went all other materials and
| facilities. The various agency heads
have dual jobs:
1. They must see that the mat
erials and facilities go to the war
material producers.
2. They must aid the industries
to expand their production.
Here's how the thing works in
practice:
The secretary of agriculture has
/ created two new units in his Pro-
duction and Marketing Administra-
ton. One Of them, the officer OF
Requirements and ALLEGATIONS, has
the job of channeling and parcel
ing out he food, and fl

of Materials and Facilities aids

lities. 1t must get steel from COM

An enormous blank space in the
mobilization pattern is still to be
filled in. The President decreed
that there would be a new and in
dependent agency to handle price

is to be called the economic StabiIi-
cation Agency. SO far no one has
been appointed for the job and
NO steps have be en- taken

the agency will not go into action

GET YOURsELF A GOOD ONE

GET YOURSELF A GOOD ONE
There are many people who play
a piano by "ear' and do this very
we'll. The average person finds
good training and the page of writ
ten music to be the only way of
achieving any success with the
keys. Some people can take mo-
tor trip with no map and lose no
time in arriving at their destina-
ton. Most of us need the map. The
experienced person can usually
dispense with written music or
maps in repeating familiar scores
or routes, but again resorts to
these aids for new adventures.
These same theories hold for
the cook book. The inexperienced
person needs a good cook book.
Many have learned to cook without
one but the perils and expense of
the trial-and-errOr system have
nothing to balance them by a cook
books absence.
Then the new cook comes to us
and says, "Why are recipes so in
volved? What will happen If I
omit a bay leaf? / don't have a
rooster, how can I bake half a
ham? VIII my salad be ruined if
don't use garlic in the dressing?
Experience can show this new
homemaker whether or not the bay
leaf is necessary to her. She may
go through life gaily in spite Of
her never having a Glove of garlic
in the house. What was wrong
with baking the half ham in a
heavy frying pan? The only re-
quirement was some utensil for
holding the ham, no lid, and low
heat!
There are many excellent cook
books for the beginner these days.
These books show the weight of
fresh peas to buy for two or four
people, and, by pictures, show
some frequent processes which
may be difficult to describe such as
pounding" meat or making cres-
cent rolls.
Now once you've mastered the
processes of three simple meals a
day, read further into the book
There you'll find suggestions to
vary your meals, for fun and to
eliminate the possibility of mono
tony.

Peak Flow Due in March.
The real flow of American war

this device for many years in

Stronghold of Love.
But this cannot be said of the
heart throb business of Miss
Moran and Mr.. Davenport. True,
their love blossomed in far away
India, but one look at the popu-
lation statistics of India and one
realizes right away that love has
been flourishing there for many,
many centuries. Indeed, with the
exception of China, India is the
stronghold of love.
Mr.. Davenport apparently is not
a biflionaire or even a millionaire.
I have read of no reports that If
and when he and Miss Moran are
married they will sail to Gin
namon-scented ports in a yacht
as long as 100 lengths of garden
hose, or that he will give her a
platinum. ruby and diamond
tennis racquet for a wedding pres
ent. From published reports I
gather that Mr.. Davenport is a
nice young Englishman making a
living for himself in a foreign
country, just as tens of thousands
of young Englishmen are doing
all over the world.
The chances are that when and
If they are married the Daven-

world is loaded down with gor-

wearing lace on her panties.
Again, if that little item makes a
gal gorgeous, then I'll bet you
there are gorgeous girls right in

own house.
It all boils down to this-if we
insist on making every young girl
who plays tennis and has lace
on her panties gorgeous. and her
engagement to q quiet, young
businessman romantic, soon the
highways and the byways, the
streets and the avenues, and

girls swinging tennis racquets and

it would be fine for the makers
of tennis racquets and panties,

The chaos In our diplomacy
has resulted, among other things.
from the extraordinary success OF
Communist semantics. The Com

words have a magical influence.
There has been an assumption,
by no means confined to Commu-

could persuade himself and 9TH

the Soviet Union was an educa-

labor camp in Nazi Germany.
Robert st. John could persuade

heroic enterprise and not exploit

will not assure the preservation

European people-whose political

differently, however. They are
tired and afraid of war. They
fear that the arrival of modern
American war equipment means
increased military duties and pos
sibly extension of compulsory
military service, which at the
present time is limited to II
months.
Europeans have absorbed so
much propaganda to the effect
that arms means inevitable war
