Each contains food for 14 men, and provides tor seven complete changes in diet. Included in these unit packs is a British invention that is In genlous, to say the least a self- heating soup can. , Each .of these cans has a slow fuse down' the middle,' and when the fuse is iighted hot soup Is available within four minutes, This gadget so Impressed our own army that it ordered a million of them Immediately, with other orders to follow. . IT merely happens that the Brit ish have told us about the prep orations they have made to keep their men fed during the touchy first days of the invasion; We may be quite sure that our own men will be equally well .provided for. I (JADING the food, Incidentally, L was one of the ' last , things done, and was therefore extreme' ly secret. When the food began to go into the invasion craft, every possible precaution was taken to prevent news of it from getting to the spies that the Germans moved . heaven .and earth to have on hand. . . . THERE we're Jong centuries In the history of the world when it was at least conceivably possi' ble to launch on attack in fairly large force without the enemy getting news of it In advance. Communications were then Im perfect and travel was slow. The airplane has changed all this, and It is now no longer pos sible to keep the news of large preparations entirely away from the enemy. There has been hard ly a day or a night when German observation planes have not been over England spying on every thing that can be seen from the air. Much was concealed, but it was impossible to conceal the large concentrations of ships necessary to carry our forces to the shores of Europe. About the best we could do was (o have everything ready and start as soon as night falls thus giving the shortest possible no tice to the enemy. , Family Reunion Attended By Service Men on Leave Vincent A.

McElmurry and Editorials on New (0 Mam fros p4 L) DON'T LISTEN By Charles WHILE special emphasis is " bonds during the Fifth War Loan campaign, we will doubtless hear again and again the destructive rumors about tremendous redemption of Series E bonds. Such rumors have been circulated freely, started and kept alive to some degree by nazi agents, but principally by people who are hunting any ikind of excuse, without regard to the truth, to avoid their responsibility. The true facts are that the rate of redemption is far less than had been anticipated. The research section of the U. S. Treasury department officially reports that 91.66 per cent of the E, F and G bonds bought by individuals are still held by the purchasers. E, F and G bonds were first issued May 1, 1941. Since that date, through April 30, 1944, cumulative sales totalled $31,851 millions. During that same period of time, redemp tions totalled $2,614 millions tive sales. Therefore, 91.66 in Series E, F and G bonds since they were first offered for sale is still invested in these The American public not bonds, but still retains 81.14 chase of U. S. saving bonds. Issuance of the so-called March 1, 1935, and dales continued until April SO, 1941, when the present type of war During the six years Savings bonds were available, the American public invested $4 1944, had cashed only $745 total Bales. In other words, out of $35,351 millions invested in fed eral securities since March 1, April 30, 1944, still held $31,990 millions. To these vast holdings we War loan campaign to add a of E, F, and G bonds assigned to individuals from the $16 billions to be raised from all sources. The Fifth War Loan is expected to receive the coopera tion of a voluntary advertising anything ever before known in Cooperative advertising drives previously conducted has steadily advanced in vol ume. And, it has been interesting to note that -total sales have increased in even larger proportion than the amount of advertising devoted to the campaigns. During the Fourth War Loan drive, 35 million lines of news and editorial comment were devoted exclusively to the hales effort, together with 89,048 separately contributed ad vertisements, carried by the daily and weekly newspapers f the nation. The Roseburg Victory council, which has sponsored war- aid advertising in each of these campaigns, has furnished a striking example of cooperation, which has won high com mendivtion,from istate and national headquarters. ; Ihe council s participation will bo even greater than before according to D. E. Carr, chairman of the Retail Merchants committee of the Rose burg Chamber of Commerco, who, through his appointment as committee head, has succeeded Jat'k Fariss as chairman Of the Victory council. Funds have been collected in ad vance of the campaign, he states, to assure a greater measure of advertising cooperation than ever before. Two-Day Poppy Sale Is Very Successful .

The committee reported to the house legislation providing: 1 For lend-lease $3,450,570,000. For UNRRA $450,000,000 for this nation's participation in the United Nations Relief and Re habilitation administration with additional authority for the Pres ident to transfer to it $35,000,000 in lend-lease funds which might not be needed immediately. For the Foreign Economic ad ministration, the agency charged witn waging economic warfare against the enemy $18,500,000. a reduction of $1,381,000 from the FEA's budget request. The appropriations are for the fiscal year which starts July 1. ixmci-lease aid by the United States to the allies now totals $24,225,000,000. The committee de clared that the guns, tanks and food distributed this way meant the difference between "a rela tively Ineffectual and an all-out utilization of the resources of our allies in destroying the enemy." The committee stated that It was faced with a situation now similar to the first world war. In the early fall of 1918, the report said, many persons thought Ger many must surrender soon but the house appropriated $6,500, 000,000 a bill that was siened oniy seven clays before the armis tice. "There was no choice then ex cept to maintain full preparation and there is none now," the com mittee declared. Food Biggest Item The largest lend-lease item is $2,t95,966,220 for food. The com mittee said the Soviet Union is sorely in need of food and that in the case of Britain, it would be lend-lease which would make up the margin between a "bare existence diet" and enough food lor tne British people to produce una iignt eniciently. The sum provided UNRRA represents less than what the na tion is spending every five days for the war, the committee said, and the funds will be needed to rebuild "starving" populations once the European countries are liberated. i UNRAA funds arc to be into use when the army feels tho emergency in a given area is over. To illustrate the need the lib erated population will or do have now, the committee noted that nine babies die out of every 10 born In Greece. KRNR Mutual Broadcasting System, 1490 Kllooyolea.
