UNDER PRIORITY Longer “Campaign” is Needed To Harvest Beets Hartley Heads Nyssa Defense Burning Straw Hit By Agent L.Kendall Barn, Hay Are Burned Youth Stationed Emil Stunz of the Stunz Lumber In Texas Writes company stated today that under conservation order M-208, which controls all types and grades of softwood lumber after August 27, all lumber must-be handled through priority regulations. Practically all construction that would be done by farmers falls Into class 3, with an A-l-a rating. The new order, recently Issued by the government, makes a division of all purchase orders Into four classes. It Is based on the re lative essentiality of the use to the war and civilian economies. The fulfillment of requirements for the defense of the United States has created a shortage In the supply of softwood lumber for defense, for private account and for export so that the new order Is deemed necessary and approp riate In the public Interest and to promote the national defense.

There somehow comes a ray of hope From a source of secret prayer. If only you would look around. You’ll find me, waiting there.
