The latest claimant for this form of federal benefaction Is Representative Poage of Texas, who insists upon preserving the guayule plant as a source o f rubber even after experiments have demonstrat- ed that It cannot compete with either other natural rubber or the synthetic product now being gener- ally used In the United States.

Those enemy "pipe lines’’ extend across the seas and Into or own country. They are be ing used dally. As we press the Germans and Japanese harder along the fighting fronts spies become more alert and the Information they gather moves with greater speed. The following article, sent to the VFW department o f Americanism by the US. office of war informat ion, Illustrates how loose-talk and rumors here at home are being used against our fighting forces. “ NOW W IL L YO U STOP LOOSE T A L K ? ” By Sgt. John H. Gardner I was a radio operator on a 1 Flying Fortress. Coming back from a mission over Germany, our plane was shot down. Several members of cur crew, Including myself, were picked out of the Bay of Biscay by a German patrol boat, taken to an air force prison near Frankfort. Germany, and placed In solitary confinement. On the third day, a German captain came In to talk with me. He was quite pleasant, spoke good English, and gave me cigarettes. He told me that he didn't want any names of all my commanding o ffi cers, the date I had left the states. Every bit of Information was cor rect. He knew almost as much ab out my army life as I knew myself. However, I still didn’t confirm any thing, so he left. The nexit day i inspite of the cap tain's former threats to the con trary) I was released from my cell and permuted to talk to my fr iends. A ll of them had had the same experience. The Intelligence Officer had told them all their com plete iiistory since they had entered the army! The enemy couldn't have gotten all that information since we’d been overseas, so we knew it must have leaked out back home. Before we went overseas, we boys in the army didn't pay much att ention to those posters saying, “Carless Talk Costs Lives." But now that I am back In this country, I l c-ally understand wlhat those post ers mean. Because somewhere, omehow the enemy got that In formation about us. Returns From Nampa— Mrs H. B.

Then he asked: “ How long have you been In the army?” "Where did you enter.” "W here did you take your basic training?” "W hat type of training did you get?" "W hen did you get to England?” "How long have you been there?” "W hat was your group number and squadron number and where were you based?” "How many missions have you been on?” “ What countries have you fl own over?" etc., etc. I refused to answer, but it was tough. He kept throwing me o ff the track by talk ing about pepole I knew back In the states— the kind of talk that proved he knew a lot about me. But I held out, much to his disgust. Finally he tried another approach. He said, “ Look, sergeant— I know the answers to all these questions anyway. I f you don’t believe me, listen— ” , And he reeled o ff the an swers to every question he had asked—and more besides. He told me when and where I had entered the army, where I had taken my basic training, the dates of each army promotion I had received, the met A letter of thanks was from “1 Rookstool. who is still in W e start serving at 8 o’clock.
