More Wool Clothing
In Sight for Winter
By VfPB Order
Dressing well in wartime won't
be quite so much of a problem this
fall and winter as last, thanks to
some orders from WPB, states Lucy
R. Lane, clothing and textiles spec
ialist at Oregon State college.
Several million woolen and wor
sted garments and blankets will be
released to civilians this winter as
a result of a program arrived at by
WPB and the war department
that i;;, reducing by 50 percent army
procurements of some of the prin
cipal worsted and woolen products
during the last four months of this
year. -
Some slide fasteners will also be
made due to a recent WPB order
which permits the resumption of
their manufacture from distress
stocks of carbon steel
Moreover, women's and girls',
children's and toddlers' fall and
winter dresses and suits, coats,
blouses, and other outer clothing
will cost no more than last fall and
in some cases less. This is in accor
dance with an OPA order, says
Miss Lane.
There'll be more shoes for civili
ans, too. WPB has permitted a 25
percent increase in cutout of shoes
for boys, misses and children, and
infants, as well as greater produc
tion of men's work shoes. WPB is
also following tests made by the
national bureau of standards on two
sole-treatment oil compounds de
signed to lengthen wearing quality

RETREATING soldiers burn every
thing behind them. They realize
it will take years to rebuild communi
ties . . . decades to regrow forests.
They must lose natural resources to
win the war.
IN AMERICA, we are not retreat
ing, yet hundreds of thousands of
acres of growing timber are burned
annually. Most forest fires are the
result of carelessness, or incendiarism.
Both types can be stopped before they
start.
REMEMBER, Timber is one of our
most important of war materials . . .
it replaces metal sorely needed for
actual fighting tools and fills myriad
other uses. We need our forests to
help "keep 'em flying."
FOREST FIRES IN AMERICA
HELP THE AXIS do your bit and
see that your neighbor does his in
keeping fire out of the woods.
