The Army has been reluctant to discuss punishment of re turned GIs accused of their com rades of collaborating with the Communists.

Well bet it gave you a different slant on life, whether it brightened a part of your house or gave a child's toy a colorful look. To help make your life brighter and easier today's paints come in every tint and hue of the rainbow. Beat of all, the modern miracle paints come to you ready to use. America's paint industry and the American Can Company virtually grew up together. The paint companies worked out for mulas for ready-mixed paints that do just about any special job you have in niind. Meanwhile, Canco developed practical leak-proof containers, with their now familiar "double-clinch" cov ers, to keep paint fresh during shipping and storage, until you are ready to use it. New plants and whole new industries were, able to get started when Canco developed the right container for ready mixed paints. This meant new and better jobs, and a higher level of pros perity for us alL Yes, by making better cans not only for paints but for just about every thing you can think of Canco has been able to help all Americans eat better, live better and work better. We can be prood of such teamwork be tween our people and our business en terprises. That's what makes America such a satisfying country to live and work in. And it promises a future "bright as paint" for us alL AMERICAN CAN COMPANY O CONTAINERS . . fe Mp people five feffsr Baptist Singers at Eugene, Roseburg Medford First Baptist church male quartet sang at services In Eugene and Roseburg Saturday and Sunday.
