Call 3F4 or at Ed Clark ranch. 30p Week of the War Acting at the suggestion of the President and the request of the War department, the House passed and sent to the Senate legslation to reduce the minimum draft age from 20 to 18. The Bill provides' that those who are in high school or college may finish the present school "year, but after next July educational deferments would ' be forbidden. The Bill would also -make mandatory the policy of calling all - single men in a state before calling married nien, and then calling all childless married men before men with children. ; Secretary of War Stimson an nounced there are approximately 4,250,000 men in the army at pres ent and this total will be increased to 7,500,000 by the end of 1943 distributed as follows: 3,300,000 in the- Ground Forces, 2200,000 in the and 1,000,000 in supply service. Mr. Air Forces, 1,000,000 .in training Stimson said 18 and 19 year-olds are more responsive to leadership and are not as easily fatigued so make better soldiers than older men. He said there is danger at present that the Army might get too old, in March of this year the average age of divisions being ac tivated was 26 years and 2 months, but in August the figure had risen to 28 years and 2 months. If the draft age is lowered to 18, a 7,500,000-man Army can be built up in 1943 without calling married men with children, Selec tiba Service Director Hershey re ported. Induction of married men with wives only will begin immed iately to fill the Army's call for 1,100,000 by Jan, 1, he said. Secretary Stimson announced that ground units of the Army are now aiding the Marines in the. de fense of Guadalcanal in the Solo mons, and the Army Air and Ground troops are now stationed in New Zealand, New Caledonia, the New Hebrides and Fiji Is lands. "The Japanese are continu ing to bomb our airfields and shore positions on Guadalcanal Is land and it is believed that enemy troops and eqiupment are being disposed for a strong assault against our airfield," the Navy re ported Oct. 18. During the early morning of Oct. 17, about 14 en emy bombers, escorted by 8 fight ers, attacked the Guadalcanal air field and shore positions, the com munique said, but U. S. fighters and aircraft batters shot down all the bombers and 2 of the fighters. Those latest raids brought the toll of Japanese aircraft since the Sol omons fighting began last August to 307 of all types destroyed. "Although large numbers of Ja panese troops are known to be on Guadalcanal Island, there has been as yet, no full scale land fighting," the Navy said. "Our losses in the current fighting, to date, Oct. 18, have been minor, but in a battle of this nature losses must be ex pected. All information on the fighting in the Solomons which is not of value to the enemy is be ing announced as soon as possible after being received." Gen. MacAr thur's headquarters reported Oct. 19 that Allied bombers attacking Japanese shipping concentrations off Buin in the northern Solomons scored probable hits on three en emy cruisers, a large seaplane ten der, seven flying boats and sever al cargo vessels. In the Aleutians, U. S. Ground Forces took, a third island in the Andreanof group, a nd - Army medium bombers bombed two more enemy destroy ers near Kiska. Farm Prices and Production President Roosevelt, in a radio address, said, "we are learning to ration materials; and we must not learn to ration manpower. Perhaps the most difficult phase of man power problem is the scarcity of farm labor. Every farmer in the country must realize his produc tion is part of the war production, and that he is regarded by the nation as essential to victory." Ag riculture Secretary Wickard, as chairman of the WPB food require ments committee, reduced produc tion goals for such crops as can taloupes, cucumbers, watermelons and celery, and said "first consid eration" would be given to winter Heppner Gazette Times, vegetables which require -the least labor in relation to their nutrition al value. Mr. Wickard. also called for a 10 percent increase in 1943 spring hog production over the '42 record crop, asking for about 68 million head as compared to the 1942 crop of 62 million head. He estimated 19431 requirements of pressed pork for the U. S. armed forces and Lend-Lease will exceed 1942 requirements by more than one billion pounds. The department of agriculture reported fair wage rates on Oct 1, were 220 percent of the 1910-14 period arid the highest since 1920. The average rate per day without boord, $2.76, was up 31 cents since July and up 72 cents since the pre vious October. The department said its total Setember purchase of dai ry products, fish, fruit, and other commodities amounted to $115 million, compared with the August total of $83 million. The depart ment is now buying 17 key food stuffs every week and 11 others every two weeks. Rationing The office of price administration ruled that after next January 31, all motorists holding A mileage rationing books must have their tires inspected every four months and those receiving books allowing supplemental mileage must have their tires inspected every two months. Original inspections of tires on all passenger cars must be made between December 1 and January 31, white commercial ve hicle tires which must be inspect ed every two months or every 5,000 miles, whichever comes first may be checked any time after Nov. 15. Price Administrator Henderson sets Nov. 9 as registration day for gasoline rationing in the states where rationing is not already in effect, while motorists in the pres ent rdlori'ing area mu;t f41e a tire inspection certificate with their local rationing board by Nov. 22. Car owners in the latter area must list the serial numbers of all their tires and if there are more than five ror car, the owner, will be denied gasoline ration books until he has disposed of the extra tires. Mr. Henderson said the government already has- started to purchase from car owners all new and used tires in excess of five per automo bile. The defense supplies corpor tion, which has advanced $150,000, 000 for ths program, has designated 160 warehouses throughout the country as delivery points, and the 23,000 offices of the Railway Ex press agency will collect the tires and bring them to the warehouses. The OPA said war ration sugar stamp No. 9 will be good for the purchase of three pounds of sugar between Nov. 1 and Dec. 15. The sugar allotments for institutional and industrial users for November and December were set at 60 and 70 percent, respectively, of the su War and .
