Soon thereafter such plans were denied by OPA officials, but the ration allowance for March, as announced last week,, averages three cans per person,-just as we had pre­ dicted somb weeks ago. The people are told to eat fresh fruits, and veg­ etables in place o f the canned varie­ ties, but already serious shortages, of apeh fresh foods are developing in the large cities, and prices are,sky­ rocketing. Complaints are reaching Congress from wholesale and retail food dealers, restaurant proprietors and housewives, .that the food ration­ ing program is entirely too strict and harsh, and if continued Will result in hunger ancl distress in many sections of’ the country. Of course, Some fam­ ilies, especially those in rural sections where home canning can be done, and m the South where fresh fruits and vegetables are available m ost‘o f the year, can get along on the three cans per person per month commercial canned food ration allowance, hut a- partment dwellers in large cities, with •a past average per capita consump­ tion o f four hundred and thirty-seyen cans per year, are going to have a hard time o f it. As, food rationing went into effect and housewives o f the nation were required- to declare all cans of fruits and. vegetables over five cans per :person and have ration-coupons de­ ducted therefore, much comment was .created as a result o f a1*special OPA order exempting^ the White House oc­ cupants, which include Mr, and Mrs. Harry Hopkins, from declaring their excess canned goods. OPA officials give as the reason for such special . order- that the'White House is con­ sidered, as an institution. However, OPA regulations do.not require in­ dividuals living in an institution to. register for or obtain ration books, and such books were issued in the .name o f eaclr White House resident; Incidentally, the next day after the White House registration, Mrs, Roosevelt issued "a public statement criticising those housewives who had reported an over-supply o f canned goods on their shelves, as required under the OPA order; and intimated some action might be necessary to take such surplus food away from them.

And now that it seems certain that most foods and many other necessi­ ties o f life are to be rationed for the duration it is up to each citizen to study the rationing rules and reg- ulaticns and learn to live under them . to the best o f his ability as quickly isS possible so he may move on to the next phase o f the regimented economy under which we are living these days, Now at long last every phase o f life is being planned for each Citizen. Money, as .such, is worth' nothing unless it hears with it ad­ ditional special governmental permis­ sion to buy what you need. Under the bid fashioned free economy o f former days money was a stand­ ard medium by which .you could obtain the goods and services of others. Money was always hard to get and rather easy to lose; but once yoti had it you were able to buy what you needed and what you wanted. Today that is all changed and you can only buy what the government will let you have. It does not matter how much money you have today-yOtt can­ not buy canned food, sugar, coffee shoes, tires, gasoline or fuel oil for your personal use without govern­ mental permission and government issued coupons. Neither can you build a house with it, or buy a pew automobile, or a new kitchen stove, or thousands o f other articles with out receiving a government okeh on your purchase, So call it what you Wiil—the American people are reg­ imented today as never before, as and bow'certain hureaucratid officials detide is necessary for their welfare. O f Course, it is entirely possible the public official who decides what 1 * necessary may be wrong - but you must comply-just the same, To keep the record straight it should be pointed out that tie -her this column ftor the American people generally are protesting against nec­ essary rationing or other curtailment o f their rights and privileges.

Visitation by teams of all the district will then proceed from March 14—18, During recent, months, .complaints from the public o f. delayed or. lost mail addressed to members o f the armed forces indicate that there is wide misunderstanding of how this mail is hsndlcd and o f the difficulties encountered in Its delivery. These complaints, incidentally, are far fewer than the. number received during the First World War, although the volume o f mail is much larger, according to veteran postal officials who have directed postal activities in both wars. Mail for members o f the armed for­ ces is delivered to Army and Navy authorities at post offices convenient to camps or stations in this country or to ports o f embarkation when ad­ dressed to persons overseas. The Postal Service then has no further jurisdiction over the mail, and re­ sponsibility for its delivery from that point bn lies entirely with the Army and N/*.vy. Likewise, the Army and Navy handle mail from members of the armed forces until it is delivered to civilian post offices in this country, and ’the Postal Service has no juris- dictin over the mail until s(rreceived. Army and - Navy post; offices are, technically, branches o f civilian‘ post offices in this country, but they are not under- the jurisdiction ,of th.e Post­ al Service, being 'maintained and op­ erated by the War and Navy Depart­ ments and manned by military and naval personnel. For instance, A. P. O. 1234, c-o Postmaser, New York, N, Y.f would be a branch o f the New York post office, although it may be: located with troops in Africa or else­ where. Mail deposited in that post office for delivery in this country would carry the return address o f “ A. P. O. 1234, New York, N.

A t the same time, state commis­ sioners o f agriculture pointed out that crop conditions last year were unusually favorable over most o f the nation, ■Wickard sent out questionnaires to county agents; inquiring as t o crop prospects and to factors which might hold down ptodilctitn. While some said production would increase if weather was normal, the great maj ority foresaw decreases. The probable reductions were at­ tributed principally to labor short­ ages resulting from the draft or men leaving the farm to. enter war In­ dustries, to a shortage o f farm Im­ plements; to reduced acerage, and to several other factors, such a* short­ ages o f fertilizer, feed, fencing and Inskticidea, and to unsatisfactory prices* i f ' indicative at the spirit with Which Amarteah* will resjMfcd ti the 1943 Red Grass War Fund aMeat is this pastor by WsmdaU Kling, noted lilustrStor.
