FORT KLAWiATH
DOUBLES RED
A
Mrs. William Zumbrun, local
chairman of the Red Cross menv
bership drive, announces that the
sum of $410.51 was turned in to
the Klamath Falls chapter last
Tuesday. Since that time, an ad
ditional $13.50 has been added
to this amount, including some
donations to the drive which
were sent to Mrs. Zumbrun from
local residents who are now at
various outside points. This more
than doubles the quota of $200
set by the organization for this
vicinity.
On behalf of the Red Cross,
Mrs. Zumbrun wishes to take
this means to express her thanks
to all who contributed so gener
ously to the drive. In particular,
appreciation is extended to resi
dents of Fort Klamath and vi
cinity for sponsoring the pie so
cial and dance held in the club
house on March 20, at which the
sum of $105.51 was realized
from the sale of pies baked by
local women. Special credit is
due to Charles E. Race, local
school instructor, who originated
the idea of the pie social as
means of raising funds for the
Red Cross, and who acted as pie
auctioneer at the affair.
A hearty vote of thanks is ex
tended by Mrs. Zumbrun on be
half of the organization to R. O
Varnum of Fort Klamath and
Coke" Cochran of Chiloauin.
These two men donated their
services as musicians for the
evening of dancing following the
auctioning of the pies, thereby
helping greatly to make the af
fair such an outstanding social
success.

Wartime Belt-Tightening Hits Home
With Meat, Butter Rationing Today;
New Point Values Put on Many Foods
By IRVING PERLMETER
WASHINGTON, March 20 (V)
Wartime bolt-tightening really
hit home today as rationing of
meat, butter, and allied products
began. New coupon costs on pro
cessed fruits and vegetables also
went into effect.
The averago American, who
has been one of the world's big
gest per capita consumers of
meat could buy pork, beef, lamb
or mutton today only on the 16
points of the red A stamps in his
No. 2 ration book.
Two Pounds
Sixteen points will buy two
pounds of steak this week If it
is available but most people
will want to use some of those
points to buy other cuts of meat
and also butter, lard, cheese, veg
etable shortening, canned fish
and salad oils.
Meal-planning problems of the
housewife were doubly tough to
day because many of the coupon
values of processed foods that
she tried so hard to learn during
the last four weeks were
changed this morning, some up
and some down.
Lower Points
On the bright side, sho could
buy prunes, raisins and other dry
fruits and apple juice without
coupons. She could also buy oth
er fruit and vegetable juices and
dehydrated soups at reduced cou
pon costs.
But the old standby of canned
baked beans was higher in point
value and other increases made
it more difficult to buy canned
fresh lima beans, catsup, and
canned applesauce, fruit salad
and cocktail, peaches and pine
apple. Summary
Summarizing the kitchen ra
tions In effect today, the coupon
situation was as follows:
Meat, cheese, canned fish, but
ter, lard and other edible fats
and oil this week use only red
A stamps in ration book No. 2.
This provides 16 points per per
son to be spent Interchangeably
for meat and the other items in
this group.
A Stamps Good
The A stamps may be saved,
if desired, and used any time
through April 30 along with
other red stamps becoming valid
each week in that period.
Expiration date of fifth week
stamps has not been fixed yet.

Complicated Problem
Tho problom of buying meat
today also was complicated by
the fact that many stores prob
ably had none on hand.
Besides tho scarce and uneven
supplies of moat that caused ra
tlonlng in tho first place, tho sit
uation was aggravated lust week
because thousands of people
bought up all tho hums, roasts
iiiut other cuts In sight for a lust
fling at unrationcd eating. OPA
expects quick restocking of re
tall coolers, but It will tnko time
beforo tho supply throughout the
cntlro country Is stabilized.
Poultry Unratlontd
In the meantime game, noul
try and fresh fish are unrationcd.
Also unrationcd are soft cheeses
(including cottago and cream
cheese), milk, cereals, fresh
fruits and vegetables, bread and
other bakery products, corn
syrup, figs. Jams and jellies, mo
lasses, olives, peanut butter,
pickles, potato salad, spaghetti
and macaroni, spices and soft
drinks.
, Then, too, there Is no counon
rationing at restaurants although
public eating places are restrict
ed by OPA in their overall sup
plies of rationed items and many
establishments mny restrict por
tions accordingly. The govern
ment Is considering a portion re
striction of its own for theso
places.
16 Points Each
The 16 points per person avail
able this week on tho red stamps
must be weighed in considera
tion of the fact that most popular
steaks and chops cost 8 points
per pound; roasts, 5 to 9 points;
stew meat, 4 to 6; hamburger
(made exclusively from scraps
and discarded cuts), 5. Sliced ba
con Is 8 points per pound, and
the same valuo applies to butter

A Bomber is BornV
A good Idea of the symphony of ndua
jry that goes into the making of an airplane
comes from a high official of the War Pro
duction Board.
Afore than 1,500 concerns, ha says, takt part
in tho production of a single airplane.
It begins, of course, with raw materials, drawn '
from many parts of the Nation. Finished materials
and parts take form In hundreds of plants In widely
scattered cities. These flow In endless procession to
the assembly plant. And In a surprisingly short time
completed bomber rolls onto the flying field
ready to join the fight for freedom.
, An Important part of this symphony of produo'
tlon begins In the Northwest, It Is reflected In the
tasks assigned to the railroads.
The Great Northern hauls Iron ore from Northern
Minnesota to the boats on Lake Superior, lumber g
and important lumber products, such as plywood,
from western forests and mills, copper and zinc from
the mines at Butte, aluminum from the recently
completed plants In the Pacific Northwest, and other '
products that have their roles In the making of an
airplane. Plants for the production of magnesium,
another vital commodity, arc neorlng completion In
the Pacific Northwest.
The Great Northern participates also In the as
sembling of the finished materials and parts, trans- '
porting them In an uninterrupted flow for airplane
manufacturers in other parts of the country, as well
as to the Northwest's famous airplane plant which
is filling world-wide skies with Flying Fortresses.
Thus from forests, fields, and mines from gon
dolas, box cars and flat cars from more than 1,500
widely scattered manufacturing establishments
from inventive and organizational genius and from C
labor a bomber is fcorxi.
