The reports from county headquarters indicates that the Red Cross campaign is not moving towards success as fast as*ln other campaigns in the county.* We,do not believe therecan be a valid reason for the slowness, if that is what it is. The. war is not over and there is more need for the home folks to back the boys on all fronts than ever before. There will be many more reported injured before another month rolls around. The injured now in hospitals must be cared for as well as on the battle front. Greene county met its quota in former campaigns and we cannot afford to have it said we have failed to repeat this time what we have done in the past. The boys at the front .will hear of the result what ever it is. Are you as a reader one who is holding back by not contributing your share for so im­ portant an emergency? UNDELIVERED PACKAGES Thousands of American families whose sons, husbands and other relatives are in the Pacific, have been told in letter after letter from these boys that they still are waiting receipt of their Christmas packages. Although these were in the mails by last Oct. 7, according to government regulations, in too many in­ stances they have not been delivered, •Congressman Fulton, Republican of Pennsylvania, has just .returned from an extensive tour of the Pacific, and says mil lions of Christmas packages are piled at military bases, that a one base he counted 5000 stacked outside, “ in the rain anc weather.” We all understand that these packages were placed in the mails around the time MacArthur was readying his forces, with the help of the Navy, to invade Leyte and, following that, Lu zort. That meant that every form of transportation available was called on for the job. Nevertheless, Leyte is well in the past, the Philippines are well in hand and it would seem that if a high officer in Australia could have a bale of hay sent via bomber to feed his pet kangaroo, some effort could be made to get the Christmas packages delivered. Unhapily, thousands of them are addressed to boys who are no longer here to receive them. They are casualties of bat­ tle, who fought the good fight and gave their all. The packages addressed to these heroes Fulton would do something about. He wants Congress to authorize the Red Cross to take them over and, except where the contents fo r sentimental reasons should go back to the sender, deliver them to boys still living. The Red Cross, he believes, might deliver the other pack ages, too. Countless thousands are by this time ruined, for they contained perishable things like food. But Fulton’s idea is commendable. By all means these packages should be gotten to the boys. Christmas never came to them, and their reactions have been reflected pretty strongly in their letters home The Red Cross can bririg Christmas final- ly, however belatedly, to a lot of these, homesick boys. —Ohio State Journal Tho New Dealers are beginning to worry more and more over the short­ age of food in many sections of th e , country. Even in Ohio most city meat stores or departments sell out within a few hours after opening. They are limited only to a. fraction of their supply of a year ago. Letters are now pouring in on congress from consum­ ers. Laborers are out o f humor and the situation is not only critical but it will continue to grow worse for the next eight months or more. There are millions of innocent people that must suffer to a certain extent- over the New Deal food Tmngling. Those who preach the Communistic doctrine can have little sympathy. Those who think by creating a scarcity o f every day food by paying farmers not to produce must take the consequences. This week Cuba sugar cane growers flatly refused a $3.10 per hundred for raw sugar from the New Deal, only aided in creating a greater shortage of sugar here where southern cane farmers arc-paid not to grow more cane under a penalty if they do. Cuba still has tons on tons o f the sugar crop from last fall but refuse to sell it to this country at the prewar price adopted by the OPA. ' Meantime you are told you will gel less sugar this summer for canning than last year. That is the result of planned economy that Hen Wallace and a lot of crack­ pots have forced on you. Hen killed tho little pigs. The farmers took the money for their loss. The city folks who regarded Hen as a heaven sent messenger or angel of mercy now dis­ cover he was an agent of the devils- forces that believe in destruction, joth economic and morale the proposed measure to permit the coloring of oleo to make it look more like butler, rather than the anemic appearance it has today. One o f our friends that travels says while he was raised on cow butter and apple but­ ter on the farm in his young days, apple butter smeared over two slices o f bread for the school lunch, he now thinks more o f apple butter as a spread even if- it was factory made. He has no use for oleo and has gone back to his school days in taste rather than try to like the “ axle-grease" we call oleo. THE HYDE PARK KING CAN DO NO WRONG The New Deal has preached much of the purity of the bat- lot—d)ot the presidential short ballot for the soldiers. We have the Hatch act to protect federal employees meddling in elec­ tions and we have Civil Service rules. All these are no doubt noble in purpose but all are violated by New Dealers each and every day of the year, so long as they suit their purpose. But let a Republican step out of bounds—that is something else. - The most outstanding piece of, political doggery ever foisted on the public was the reason given by King Franklin, for the ap­ pointment of Hen Wallace for a job he was utterly unfit and untrained for. He certainly had no particularly qualities for the place because Roosevelt used but one reason for the ap­ pointment of Wallace. He wanted to get rid of Jesse Jones, not because he was not qualified and had not done a good job, for he had been handed additional jobs of a financial nature by Roosevelt Over the.past few years. Jones did not deliver the r^ntankerous Texas delegation at the Democratic—New Deal- Hillman pow-wow at Chicago lastfsummer. To give the public the attitude of a religious weekly on the same subject we re­ print comment frOm a recent issue of the “ Christian Union Herald." . “ The most significant aspect of the Henry Wallace-Depart- ment of Commerce episode was not Mr. Wallaces’ fitness or un­ fitness for the post offered him,’ importarit as that considera­ tion is. It was the President's unblushing invocation of the “ spoils system” for the filling of a cabinet post. The only con­ clusion possible after reading Mr. Roosevelt's letter to Jesse Jones is that he holds both the intelligence of the average A- merican citizen and the place of the cabinet in very low esteem Even if the President does consider a cabinet position nothing *more than a reward for political facors, one might have ex­ pected him to go about the conferring o f it with a little more fiinesse. Instead, with complete cynicism (for he certainly un­ derstood that Mr. Jones would make his letter public) he placeB himself in the position of the lowest wardhealing aider- man in city precinct No. 3 It is such contemptuous dieregard for the validity of high principle in a democracy that weakens the whole fabric of the national life and character. This braz­ en attempt at “ payoff” to Henry Wallace, without so much as a trace of suggestion that he himself believes in Mr. Wallace’s fitness for the post, presents Franklin D. Roosevelt at his worst. The OPA discovered it was neces­ sary to increase red points on lard as there was a shortage in sight, probab­ ly never thinking the public might recall the crooked government deal in lard last summer. At that time the Commodity--Gredit Corporation, one of th forcesHfor evil destruction and wild spending sold 20,000,000 million pounds of lard made by the leading packers, and paid for by Uncle Sam, to the soap companies. The New Deal nuts ‘seeing they had ruined the soap business by regulation tried to put it back on its feet, which has not been done yet for there are days when lit­ tle soap can be found on grocery shel­ ves. The public swallowed the soap story, hock and sinker, and no doubt took it to be the truth. However it was just a plain “ white lie' as the boy jn the street would say. •The spoiled lard story was a myth because lard made by reputable companies will not -spoil in any month or six months. Every farmer knows different even if the city consumer does not. Now Con­ gress has attempted to lift the lid on the scandal while New Dealers from the highest to the lowest are forced to deny everything to save prominent faces. Try and find out what Uncle Sam paid for the lard and then try to find out what it sold for and who handled the transaction.

Of course Maine raised more potatoes last year than ever ,before The New Deal took a fling in potatoes last spring and purchased, car after car of new potatoes. Many of the spuds rotted due to the hot weather on track at Dayton. Last fall the CCC purchased Maine potatoes at $60 a ton. Later the same potatoes, not being in storage would freeze and once again the New Deal shipped in­ to Ohio several thousand ton to ge re­ fined in the sugar beet plants for cow feed at $15 to $18 a ton. Cliff Clev­ enger from Bryan, O., congressman, exposed the deal this week It took seven tons o f potatoes at $60 a ton to make one ton of cow feed at $18 a a ton by the dehydration process. It was startling news when Cong. Tom Jenkins, O,, told Congress this week the New Deal purchased 1000 car loads of New England potatoes last fall and shipped them to Louisiana to where they were made into starch. I he starch sold for 5c a package and cost the government 12c a package, That is how the Roosevelt clan makes money, Now we are told there is a shortage o f potatoes. [Jack ] 6 . Sh irley XENIA AVE, The public demands veal but the meat dealers cannot get it ffom the packers in ahy quantity. Little or none goes lend-lease and not - much to the army. A Greene county pack­ er explains the situation. The OPA has a ceiling on live calves, A celling on dressed meat to the retailer and a celling on the retailer for tho consum­ er, By paying ceiling price and tak­ ing ceiling price, including the sale of the, hide, collecting the subsidy, the packer must have a slaughtering out­ fit and plant. He must pay union wages for slaughtering When he had put out the last carcas of the average veal, he fnds he received about $2.50 for rendering ail this service and to pny his labor bills and delivery costs to the retailers door. That is why you do ilot fnd much veal oil the market. Wheal May Be Scarce T E U f A C T U. 5.

Select such old-time fa­ vorites as dill, sage, parsley, sweet marjoram, chives, and caraway that can pinch-hit for some of the sea- soners now cut off because of ship­ ping conditions. Plant only what you can use to good advantage. Garden space is at a premium this year and seeds— even of herbs—are none too plenti­ ful. Flavors and odors of most culi­ nary herbs are highly concentrated, and only a very small amount is needed to season a quantity of food •Overplanting, means a waste of time and energy as well as a waste of soil and seed. ' Most herbs will do well on any rich, well-drained garden soil. All annual herbs and most of the bb ennials and perennials are grown from seed, but the mints, penny­ royal, tarragon and chives are prop­ agated by cuttings or by division Homemade Egg"Cases To convert a citrus fruit box to an fegg case, nail a %-inch strip of board to the end boards and the .divider, to make the. box deep enough to hold the standard 30 dozen eggs. A %-inch strip along each side also helps to-make the box safe to use. Homemade boxes of half-inch lumber will last for years, if the farmer collects the empty ones each time he delivers eggs locally. Value of Buttermilk Buttermilk should become a. regu­ lar wartime diet of the American people, according to federal health authorities. Buttermilk is superior to sweet milk in that it promotes bet­ ter enzyme action,' resulting in bet­ ter digestion. Its high lecithin con­ tent makes it an ideal beverage. Few people are aware that its value in formulas for babies suffer­ ing from digestive disturbances has been well established. While in metropolitan areas the price factor is not of prime Importance, in rural districts and near butter-making plants, buttermilk can be secured at' a cost far below that of whole milk. Much of the present supply of buttermilk is now being used in powdered form. After the war this source of cooking ingredient will be available to the public in unlimited quantities. Almonds for Many Vacs There are two chief types of al­ monds, the bitter and the sweet. Bit­ ter almonds are largely used for industrial and commercial pur­ poses, while the greatest volume of the sweet almond goes into food products. A favorite in Europe is the green almond. This dish consists of yojing sweet almonds, picked while theft ’shells are soft and their coverings are green and tender. The white creamy kernel is served fresh, with skins removed. It may be served in natural or pickled state. Blanched almortds are used in food products, such as bakery goods, and the roasted almonds in the confec­ tionery induiffry. Almond oil and al­ mond sirup have largely been Used on the market. The almond oil proves a pleasing substitute for olive oil. Oil for the soap and per­ fume industry is made from the bitter almond.
