Kennedy Tells Of Vital Need For WAVES. : Qualified, available women who hesitate to leave a good job at home and enlist in the WAVES may.;be responsible for prolong ing the war and for the death of many men, Mel Kennedy, local recruiter, told members of the Salem Credit association at the luncheon Friday. ; . . Twenty-six thousand men were killed or wounded dUrine the last few , moments of World War 1 Kennedy pointed out, J and the longer ' this war is prolonged the more; men , will lose' their live. The navy has found . that every woman who enlists in the WAVES is responsible for releasing': two sailors to fight and the more men there are to fight the sooner the war will .end, Kennedy reasoned, as high officials of the navy have reasoned before him. " "Release a Man to Fight" was the name-of a WAVE film in color shown at the luncheon. . The color is an important description of the film since it displayed to the full est extent the nice blue uniforms to say nothing of the glamorous "red-headed sirls" who MemH in the majority. The bright-colored xiowers on the mess table were only slightly brighter than th. hair of many blue uniformed women Listeners intent h naivlnnl for believing . there are 100,000 men eager and ready to leave for the battle fronts since the navy seeks , 80,000 WAVE recruit and the recruiter admitted "one wom an releases two men.'? WFA Raises Grower Loan Grain Rates WASHINGTON, July 1-UPi- The war food administration mov ed today to bolster unsteady wneat - markets by Increasinf grower ; loan rates on the 1944 grain crop by seven cents a bush el. The new ' rates will average $1.33 a bushel nationally.. The. increases were made, the WFA said, in accordance with provisions of the recently-extended price control act directing:, the administration to take "all law ful action",. to assure growers of basic crops prices as near parity as possible. j The parity price of wheat, at present is $1.50 m busheL The new loan rates will reflect 90 per cent of parity compared with previ ously : announced . rates designed to reflect 85 per cent , J The higher rates should tend to place a floor of 90 per cent of parity under the grain, inasmuch as the loan provides: farmers an alternate outlet should the mar ket offer less. The increased rates are- expect ed to provide considerable sta bilizing influence on wheat mar kets which have turned' weak on prospects of the largest crop of record. Not many weeks ago pric es were, pressing against ceilings, which were set at parity, because of poor crop prospects and great ly reduced reserves. - Beet Run Will Start July 20 The ' summer and fall canning season: is scheduled to begin with the beet run about July 20 at California Packing corporation's Salem plant, Ralph C.
