ALLIES FIGHT FOR FREEDOM FOR ENTIRE WORLD On July 4, 1776 the colonies won their free dom from England and Americans have fought several times to preserve that freedom and are now fighting to save it for themselves and oth ers As we approach Independence day, celebra ted only in the United States, invasion of Eur ope by the allies is imminent. Casualties on both sides will be terrific and the frightfulness will be appalling, but victory can come only by st riking at the continent. Blinded by propaganda and warped by milit arism, the poor dupes in Germany, Italy, Rum ania and other countries do not realize it, but their rescue from slaveiy depends upon victory for the allies, whom they are fighting with a vengeance. Like the mythical American, Johnny, in the song written during the last world war, the sol diers of Europe “don’t know what it’s all ab out”. Johnny said he would soon find out, but it is doubtful whether the Germans, Italians and others ever find out what they are fighting for, unless they come to the realization that they are wan ing because their dictators told them to st art slaughtering. The people of Europe will never find free dom from slavery or freedom from anything else until they eliminate the dictators, and right now the only hope of eliminating them is an all ied victory. It would be easier to pay our 1942 and 1943 taxes than to figure out the new income with holding tax, but, of course, we don’t like any thing easy. Mrs.America Meets The War Being a stay-at-home is not only fashionable this summer, but It's a patriotic responsibility of Mrs America and her family to travel only when necessary. Here’s the way the Office of Defense Trans portation looks upon travel during this wartime summer. If you make a train or bus trip for any of the following six purposes it’s non- essential travel: Trips to other cit ies to visit friends, trips home fer the week-end, sight seeing trips, trips to the theather, races or other places of amusement, any soc- ial travel or travel for pleasure, tr avel merely for the sake of goirg - somewhere. Curbing unessential tr- avel is imperative because of heavy trcop movements and other military traffic. If Mrs. America hasn't made up her mind that wide variety In fur niture is out for the duration, she can be certain of that fact now that a War Production Board or der has gone Into effect cutting the number of existing patterns allowed manufacturers. But they’re free to select these patterns. It Is expected that manufacturers will concentrate on the most desired furniture, cutting out novelty items. Of course, it’s no easy task being a furniture manufacturer these days, obtaining materials and labor. Ma- S e w in g M a c h in e s Two White rotary machines in good condit ion.

But good old American ingenuity has been able to get around the lack of met- j al, and comfortable and satisfact- j ory furniture without springs has been develcped. As for upholstering j furniture, there's a change in the j stuffing used since fine down is j reserved for army sleeping bags, and kapok is in the Navy now fill ing life belts. However, cotton wad ding and some types of feathers are available.

The length of time assigned to the shoe stamps brings the rate of purchasing to abcut the same as it was during the period from 1936 through 1941. Here’s good news on the textile situation. Improvement In wool su pplies in recent months is respon sible for a relaxation of some res trictions of the War Production Board. For example, manufacturers no longer are required to use any part of their wool quotas blended with reprocessed or used wool or with other fibres. The choice of using wool quotas either for a pro duction of 100 percent wool or bl ended civilian yarns and cloths is left to the manufacturer.
