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 . Bomhnrdrr.ani: Insur

Maximum Prices
A specific price ceiling for wo
men's rayon hose will be issued
soon, the OPA said, and in the
meantime, buyers should carefully
compare prices with those of last
March to make certain they are not
being overcharged. , "There is no
excuse for any, increase in prices
of rayon hosiery," the Office said.
The OPA placed dried eggs under
price control at the highest levels
at which distributors did business
during . the Sept. 28-Oct. 2. base
period. The Office also set .:up a :
method for retail dealers to deter
mine their ceiling prices for fresh
