SELECTIVE SERVICE FAC IN G SOME D IFFIC U LT PROBLEMS The selective service, which has conducted a very efficient program of drafting men for the armed services, has very wisely, in some resp ects, decided to reclassify men between the ages of 38 and 45, but the service must be careful not to cause confusion as has been done by sev eral government agencies. The exemption of men between 38 and 45 has been rescinded, so that men of those ages are now eligable for call, but at the same time the army is now discharging men between the ages o f 38 and 45 because they are too old. At least two such Nyssa men have returned home within the last few days without any particular plans for the future. That is rather conflicting, to say the least. O f course, the purpose o f the reclassification of 4-H men into classes 2-C and 3-C is to secure more farm workers. Those who are capable and willing to work on farms apparently will be def erred. Others may expect to be inducted into the army. The government estimates that during this year, out of an army o f 5,500,000 men 500,000 men will break up and become unfit for milit ary service. If men between the ages o f 38 and 45 are placed in active military service the num ber of casualties from breakdowns will be in creased because not many men of that age can stand the rigors of active military duty. As the army climbs in numbers, the problems o f selective service are going to increase. M E A T R A T IO N IN G The long expected rationing program became effective last Monday. It isn’t nearly as intricate for the consumer as the canned vegetables-fruits program, although it promises plenty of “ head aches” for the butcher who will probably be re quired to argue with every other customer con cerning the amount of bone and fat he should trim from each chop. Rationing o f butter, cheese, other edible fats and oils and canned fish was also started Mon day, March 29th. Those fortunate owners of poultry flocks are especially favored. Poultry, game, horsemeat, fresh, or other fish not con tained in sealed cans or bottles are not to be rationed immediately. The necessity for meat rationing arises of co urse, from the present inequitable distribution Californians, for example, are amazed upon coming to Idaho to find that some kind of meat is procurable. On the other hand some states may be more favored than Idaho in other res pects. The O PA says that meat allotments will be proportionately more generous than the lim its put on earlier this month on canned, frozen and dry fruits and vegetables. It is to be hoped Today Is April Fool’s Day But It’s No Fooling Buy Coal Now When we say Information from responsible sources indi cates we may face a serious shortage o f coal next winter. Coal mines and their sales representatives ur ge both dealers and consumers to buy their fuel supply for next winter right Now. Government officials are also recommending that the public buy coal now. Here »re Rome of the reasons: 1. Transportation of coal Is problematical 2 Miners, like farmer», are being drafted into the armed force*. 3 Oil shortage* or oil rationing is Ukely to require many people to return to thr use of coal. You won t toe fooled if you buy coal now. A1 Thompson & Sons Phone M so, as these allotments in many cases are scar cely more than gestures. In the meantime, milk, cereals, fresh fruits an vegetables are not rationed. With erstwhile vacant lots throughout the county verdant wi th growing vegetables this summer, vegetarian ism is likely to become extremely prevalent if not popular. Payette Independent-Enterprise.
