Waste FatDrive
To Be Intensified
For Next 45 Days
The next 45 days constitute one
ol the most critical penous in lai
salvage since the war began, ac
cording to word just received by
the O.S.C. extension service,
which has been asked to assist
existing salvage agencies In an
extensive campaign to get In
more waste fats, especially from
rural . communities anu smau
towns.
Total fat supplies in sight for
1945 are fully 10 per cent under
the 1944 production, in the face
of mounting need for war pur
poses, lend-lease, and civilian use
in this country.
That more waste fats can be
obtained, especially from rural
areas, is indicated by sample sur
veys made recently In eignt
stales, including Oregon. In this
state approximately 15 rural fam
ilies were contacted in 10 differ
ent counties concerning fat sal
vage. Of 153 families contacted,
108 had turned in fat in the pre
vious two months, averaging 2.2
pounds per month, reports Mrs.
Azalea Sager, state leader of
home economics extension. Fifty-
four of the families said they
could turn in more fat than they
had in the past, with possible In
creases ranging up to 50 per cent.
ArrungemeiitH Made
Arrangements have been made
In each county for extension
service workers to cooperate with
salvage committees and other
agencies In making sure that col
lection points are operating in
each community in connection
with local stores or meat markets.
Some confusion over suitable con
tainers has been cleared up with
the announcement that any tin
can is suitable for use in turning
in waste fats whether It has a lid
or not. Glass or paper containers
are not suitable.
The goal for waste collections
in the country as a wnoie in jm:j
is 250 million pounds, compared
with 170 million pounds collected
last year. These waste lats are
used in manufacturing many
kinds of munitions, medicines,
soap, and other items needed both
for military and civilian use.

First American Cigaret in Two Years
Canning Sugar
1 1 rn I I nwo r
A tigntenea n o m e canning
sugar program for the 1945 sea
son, a program designed to insure
a fair distribution of the avail
able sugar to those who actually
need It for canning, was an.
nounced today by Administrator
Chester Bowles of the office of
price administration.
"With sugar supplies feeling
the pinch of a long war," Bowles !
said, "we cannot afford an over
issuance of home canning sugar
such as occurred last year when
we used 300,000 tons more than
our allotment.
"We're sorry that we had to
tighten up on this program,"
Bowles added, "but if we didn't
the amount of sugar available
from the 1945 supply for other
needs would suffer. For Instance,
we would have had to cut down
substantially on sugar for home
use, or cut down still further on
sugar allotments for bakers and
other groups whose ration Is al
ready tight."

In Belgium Action
Fighting with an American
unit that knocked the German
break-through In' the St. Vith secr
tion of Belgium off schedule, was
a Bend soldier, Pfc. Neal A.
Brown, whose wife lives here, and
from a story written by a Stars
and Stripes correspondent Mrs.
Brown has obtained a graphic pic
ture of that fierce December bat
tle. It was a battle, states the;
Stars and Stripes in which men,
clad in new snow suits, "seemed
to disappear into shadows that
left tracks."
The account stated that the di
vision was back in St. Vith on
Jan. 23, one month to the day.
from the night they evacuated
after holding five days and knock
ing the German break-through so
far off schedule that other First!
army units were able to stop the
threat. j
The Seventh armored, accord
ing to Stars and Stripes, had to
fight hard to get out of St. Vith
and fight hard again to get back
in. That Is where the "Moaning
Minnies," six-barreled mortars,
were used by the nazls. Quoting
the army newspaper: "Men
moved slowly, ducking during the
intermittent screaming of tha
Nebelwerfers hitting the road
Junction behind them, the road in
front of them, and sometimei hit

United Air Lines
Files Bend Brief
How United Air Lines would
provide high speed, trunk line
passenger-mail-express schedules
between Bend and other cities the
length of its coast-to-coast and
Pacific coast system was shown
today in a brief filed by the com
pany with the civil aeronautics;
board in wasnington in support oi
its application to add 20 west coast
cities to its system.
United contends that .it is in a
positltion to give Bend the most
beneficial service and to do so
more economically than any other
airline applicants In the west coast
case. -In
its brief, United declares
"The 20 cities applied for can be
served by United without creat
ing any new routes. Only a mini
mum amount of additional flight
mileage Is required." It goes on
to point out that service can be
given to Santa Rosa, Chico, Eu
reka, Klamath Falls, Bend and
Marshfield-North Bend by adding
only 43 flight miles between San
Francisco and Portland.
Plan Held Economical
"No other applicant in this nro-
ceeding can offer such a compre-
nensive plan lor extended air
service in such an economical
fashion," say 'the brief. It goes
on to state that "From Bend to
Portland the distance is 125 miles
by air, 258 miles by rail (via Wish-
ram, Wash.) and 196 miles by
bus," and that "United's service
would result in a saving of 133
miles over rail and 71 miles over
bus. The time saving over rail
would be 10 23 hours arid over
bus, 4V4 hours.
United offers to these 20 pro
posed cities one-carrier service to
53 cities on its system which are
located in areas having over 30
rper cent of the populationretail
saies ana eiiecuve buying income
oi tne country," the brief continues.
United can provide this exten
sive coverage with a minimum
amount of new. mileage. United
can do it' without creating new
routes, witnout duplicating exist
ing facilities. It can do this with
out requiring government sub
sidy. The cities which United pro
poses to Serve will support air
service. Economic self-sufficiency
and independence from govern
ment subsidy is an important ele
ment in selecting proposed cities
and must be considered in ap
praising the need for new air
service.

Women do not customarily coma out in
so many words and express even to them
selves just what it is that makes them
prefer one land of service over another.
Often it may be the "little things" that
count most small courtesies; patience
and consideration shown by those in the
bank; extra facilities provided for their
comfort and convenience; above all,
the general atmosphere of friendliness
and cooperation. "
