The sweeping shakeup was re ceived in some army quarters as evidence of Chief of Staff George C. Marshall's determination to vitalize the command of the land forces, the program he re cently announced. Or, specifically, It was taken as a concrete example of Marshall's recently disclosed plan to replace an air corps officer in complete command of all forces In an area where aviation constituted the principal defense weapon, an In fantry officer In charge whore land forces would dominate the defense and so on. This applied particularly, it appeared to the assignment of Major-General Frank M. Andrews, a veteran air officer, to command of the Carib bean area. Major General Charles , F. Thompson, now commander of the 3rd division forces at Fort Lewis, Wash., was transferred to command of the first army corps at Columbia, S. C, to replace Ma jor General William E. Shedd. Major General Andrews, now commander of the Caribbean air defense command, was designat ed to become head of the entire Caribbean defense command and the Canal Zone, including both land and air forces, on Septem ber 10. General Andrews will succeed Lieutenant General Daniel Van Voorhls, who will return to the United States to assume command of the 5th corps area, with head quarters at Columbus, Ohio. Another major shift was in the assignment of Major General Ja- cob L. Devers. now commanding the 9th division at Fort Bragg, N. C to command the raoldlv expanding armored force. He will replace Major General Adna R. Chaffee, who has com - mmM lh nrmnl-ori farm olnro Its inception, but has been ill for some time. General Chaffee has been granted sick leave. Major General Robert C. Rich ardson, Jr., now In charge of the expanded war department bureau of public relations, was transfer red to command of the 7th army corps, with headquarters at Birm ingham, Ala. Blending of Sheep Produces Cheaper Fur for Americans By JOHN GROVER AP Feature Service Writer BELTS VI LLE, Md. They're blending sheep like whiskey on the U. S. experimental farm, and what they get is swank fur coats. Distilleries use a little rare whiskey to flavor vats of com moner beverage. The U. S. bu reau of animal industry is doing the same thing, using Karakul sheep for "flavor." It happens that broadtail, Per sian lamb and caracul furs all come from Karakul lambs. The U. S. fur industry imports 250,- ' 000 lamb skins a year. It would be j swell if U. S. sheepmen got that money. Trouble is, there are 10,000 or fewer Karakul sheep in the U. S. No more can be imported, be cause of prohibitive quarantine laws. There are plenty of com mon, mutton-chop sheep, but their wool doesn't make caracul fur. So the problem of U. S. ex perts is to take that little drop of Karakul blood available here, blend it with common sheep, and hope the resultant offspring re tains the fur quality of all-Karakul pelts. Keep on Distributing It's working out successfully at the experimental farms, where a flock of 500 fur-bearers is on hand already. Karakul rams were bred to Corriedale, Navajo and highland blackface sheep. The half-bred descendants didn't have exceptional pelts. They bred back to the Karakuls, and found the three-quarter-bred lambs sported Just as good fur as the Imported skins. They re continuing the hlend- KIDNEYS MUST REMOVE EXCESS ACIDS Help 15 Miles at Kidney Tube Fluih Out Poisonous Was to If you hare an eicma of vA !n your blnod, your 15 miles of kidney tubes may bo over worked, Tina tiny Liters and tuUw we work ing day and oiitlit to help Nature rid your ayitem of excena ftciiln and poisonous wtute.

Bring Same Prices What It means is that Miss America's 1950 fur coat probably will cost less, that U. S. farmers rjust a few at first, and then in , Increasing numberwlll bc fV l"' Anv in on a $2,000,000 market farmers, using the lore &"a ln l?en ,,uumu hcT r ! mc!n f ' Jan bulld "P 8 he' d of 1 half-bred ewes Then, using a I unul "L " 'V --" whole crop of three-quarter-bred fur lambs, year after year, for a healthy cash Income. The cross-bred pelts are Indis tinguishable from Imported Kar akul skins. They bring the same prices on the fur market. It all adds up to the summary that the U. S. experimental farm, by making a fur coat a la cock tail, is establishing what can be come a new American farm In dustry, giving U S. women a chance at smart coats cheaper, because home bred Karakuls won't have to stand round the world shipping costs.
