"In addition, newspapers con tributed 168,244,463 lines of news and editorial space to promote the last four drives. "Our compliments go not onlv to the newspapers but the thou sands of business organizations and Individuals that have answer ed the treasury's urgent call to sponsor this vital advertising. "America owes a debt ot grati tude to newspapers for their loval and patriotic support of this vital war financing program. Their help bns made nnccifolo total of over $100,000,000,000 in bond sales to non-bank investors since Mav 1941. The Treasury denartment and the nation ere truly grate ful for the contribution and sus tained supDort that newspapers are giving our vital war bond campaigns." DIALjPlO By SUSAN. How's the betting goin? on the World Series at your house? or aren't you a fan? Well, whether you are are or not, you'll either have to listen for a few riavs or push the button marked "off." because it will be on the air for at least three more days and, naturally, it could run long er. Did you notice this morning that commercials were confined to the between-the-innings peri ods? That's because the games are going to the boys overseas and commercial announcements must be deleted. Thev are being shortwaved to the Europe-Mediterranean theatre from New York and Cincinnati and to the South Pacific. Alaska and South and Central America from three transmitters located in San Fran- j cisco; so wherever your boy may1 be, there's a very . good chance that he's listening to the game along with you. Tonight at G:30 you'll hear Bar bara Luddy playing the part of a blind girl in ''A Song for Syl via." Main Line at 8 and Bulldog Drummond solves "The Case of the Ugly Face" at 8:30.

We are struggling with a very serious cigarette shortage which is rapidly becoming more serious and just as rapidly driving the dealers to a state of hysteria. We have pleaded with the manufacturers to increass our allot ments on the grounds that we are serving an ever increasing popu lation. But so far our pleadings have been in vain. The manufacturers, for the most part, have based our allot ments on our 1942 purchases and since our quotas have been es tablished they have constantly been cutting them down. At pres ent we are receiving 35 per cent of the Camel cigaretts which we purchased in the base months. Other manufacturers have cut our allotments in very much the same manner. Couple this with our increase in population and it is easy to see why your dealer cannot supply the demand. We are making every effort to distribute our meager supplies to our customers. We would like to be optimistic about the future, ; bui-with the ever increasing demand from the armed forces, the ; very serious shortage of labor and raw materials of all kinds and the fact that cigarette production for the year ending July 1944 was down 12 per cent, does not call for very much optimism. We'll keep on trying and, in the meantime, please be patient with your retailer. He is trying hard to do an impossible job. Fullerton Candy Co. i
