Chinese Reds
Ration Food
Hong Kong Wl Persons
arriving from Shanghai and
Canton sav the communists are
rationing food for the first time
since they took over in China.
Private letters from China con
tain the same information.
The communists don't admit
it. but they have stopped
claiming bumper crops.. -
Arrivals from Shanghai say
the daily ration Is half a catty
(about 10 ounces) and that
food lineups are a comm
sight.
The causes are believed to
be threefold: The Korean war,
a short crop this year, and too
heavy food exports to Russia,
the Russian satellites and
Ceylon.

Mrs. Paul Heath puts a final touch to a Christmas arrangement.
Greens and Holly
Christmas green and holly
what could be more symbolic
of the Northwest area?
Have you ever stopped to
think how many of those per
sons on your list live in parts
of the country where they do
not have those greens and
holly?
Holly, with its bright green
leaves and bright red berries,
colors so traditionally Christ
mas, as you probably know, is
found in few places outside the
Northwest. .
Salem and the surrounding
area contribute considerable
holly for decoration at Christ
mas time. Growers have local
florists or United Growers
handling their packs for them
and the florists can supply any
amount and alo Christmas
greens.
It is interesting to note the
number of persons in this area
growing holly.
