Manufacture of ma chinery for this year's crops was held to less than 40 per cent of the 1940 volume under a WPB allocations prdgram which gavel munitions priority over food pro-1 ductlon sunplles. Marshall said he expected de tails of the new machinery pro gram to be announced soon to al low manufacturers ample time to arrange for a speedup In their operations in July. Food Administrator Chester C. Davis said recently the supply of new machinery for 1943 was not "entirely satisfactory In view of the high production goals." Aides said Davis was making plans for a reorganization of fed eral food production and distil bution agencies from the Wash' Ington to the county levels. As has been reported previously, those plans provide for state and county food administrators or di rectors. The state and county food offi cials will take over many regula tory and administrative func tions now performed by agricul tural war boards. The war boards will be retained to carry out AAA food production and related pro American war expenditures for the first quarter of 1943 were about a billion dollars more than lor ine entire war year i;ih.

Bush to raise enough vegetables, hogs and beef to feed themselves and families. Each member started paying $5 a month the first of the year to finance Bush on his 140-acre cotton and corn farm. They talk ed it over with Bush and had him plant the crops a majority wanted. The $100 a month contributed by members was set up to their credit for purchase of vegetables at prevailing wholesale market prices. Each member bought his own hogs and calves and is pay ing Bush to feed them. "We not only have taken oui selves out of the regular food markets, but we have made a PINE REASONABLY PRICED!

A Canadian who participated in the great raid said: "There were lots of really neat fires, but one of them topped any thing I have seen. It started with an explosion that shot flames 1 2.000 feet high. When it died down thick black smoke rose about G.000 feet." Another crewman described the same burst as a "granddaddy ex plosion that started , with a tre mendous white flash and lasted long enough for me to look up from the controls and see it die away."

Dur ing the past few days naval ves sels have picked up various craft bound for Pantellcria or Sicily and brought them back to join their 150,000 companions behind barbed wire in Africa. Speaking of the prisoners, General Anderson said: "Perhaps they will be sent to Canada; At least two-thirds are Germans, which is very gratifying." General Alexander, in a man- to-man talk with his staff in a building tucked away in the Tuni sian hills, said "we have wiped out an entire army and today we stand masters of the whole of north Africa." "This is a great victory, one of the most complete and decisive in history," he said. "We have taken 150,000 prisoners, over 1,000 guns, 250 tanks and a mass! of lorries and equipment of all sorts which probably will take days If not weeks to count."

They'll need thousands of gliders and transport planes of WOOD. They'll need shell cases and miles of ponton bridges o WOOD. WOOD is a military material of the most vital kind. We must get it to 'era. In action our troops are learning the tricks of the trade that make an army click. The same is true in lumbering. Experience is our greatest teacher. That is why your experience is so im portant NOW. That is why the War Manpower Commission has asked all the loggers in ship yards to go back to the woods. If you are not now working at this trade get back into it I Urge your friends to do the same. So when the day of invasion comes you can proudly say, "I did my full part," ,0 INGHAM LUMBER COMPANY 'jghfisBpS ROSEBURG LUMBER COMPANY.
