New Pine Creek The annual East Side grange picnic up at their new park in Vine Creek canyon was about the biggest event that took place here over the Fourth. There was a large turn-out and those at tending remarked about the good old-fashioned spirit that prevailed, having as they put it, a real good time and plenty of good eats." There were all kinds of foot races that enthusiastic children participated in and many of the older men and women cast aside their dignity and knuckled down for a grand start, albeit not as fast as it once was, but never theless, perhaps a wee more com ical, in execution, for a race that they would probably feel for a week thereafter. And in conclu sion the big tug o'war across the creek where xme side just had to get its feet wet, climaxed the sporting events of the festive oc casion. There was a vacuous calm which the "old sticks" thor oughly enjoyed and that was the obvious lack of any fireworks. This again reverberates the eco nomic disturbances of a total war that leaves in its wake of readjustment, shortages, sever ances from tradition and custom. The grange met last Saturday evening with a small crowd in attendance due to a July Fourth fatigue and partly due to the bus)' harvest season that is get ting well under way.

IB MATTE m HOMES Shortages are holding him back We in the Bell System were add ing telephones at the rate of three million a year, until shortages started getting worse. Now it's harder and harder for us to get materials for manufacturing and building. We aren't complaining for we are in the same boat as every one ' else. But we thought you might like to know the supply situation on some of the biggest items in the telephone business. LEAD There is a world shortage of lead. Even when conditions here straighten out, it will be some time before adequate supplies are available. COPPER In great demand but we will probably have adequate supplies when the smelting, refining and fabri cating plants get going. TEXTILES Serious shortage of cot ton and synthetic yarns and fabrics, with demand greatly exceeding supply. STEEL Steel and coal strikes have .affected supply in (ace of unprecedented demand. RUBBER Synthetics are In fair sup ply but natural rubber is on Govern ment allocation. LUMBER Scarce supply due to un precedented demand and dislocation of lumber trade. BRASS MILL PRODUCTS Used In Central Office switches and other tele phone equipment. Supply will be short until disturbed conditions are settled in the copper industry, permitting brass mills to get back to full-scale produc tion. It's a tough situation, but we aren't giving up, any more than you have given up trying to get butter or sugar or shirts. We're doing the best we can with what we've got and hoping these disturbed conditions will end, so we can really go full speed ahead.
