Czech Babies Get New Clothes To Supplant Sacks Czechoslovak babies, at least the younfest ones, are not wear ing flour-sack clothes this sum mer, following distribution of more than three-quarters of a million American Red Cross chapter-produced garments. Miss Lybie G. Pintner, Cleve land, Ohio, with the American Red Cross mission to Czechoslo vakia, told of the flour-sack tran sition in a recent letter from Praha. With the new American garments, the children now start life with clean, well-fitting clothes, instead of hand-me downs. Sixty thousand layettes sent over by the American Red Cross are being distributed to families for whom baby clothes were a casualty in seven years of war. To this distribution is added 25, 000 pairs of shoes, 50,000 hospital garments and 20 million surgical dressings. "When I used to read the knit ting instructions to my mother as she worked away on her* Red Cross yarn for garments and sweaters, I never expected to be on the distributing end as well," Miss Pintner wrote. "I wish she and the other volunteers could share personally in the thanks we receive for these much needed items." 5-Point Program Is Set By OP A Washington ? O P A's consumer' advisory committee Tuesday laid down a five-point anti-inflation program calling for a "strong stand" against "premature" re moval of price ceilings on basic commodities, particularly food items. The comiflittee unveiled its program as OPA announced that cotton clothing prices are going up 6 to 8 per cent and that bed sheets and other household lin ens soon will cost about 17 per cent more. The advisory committee said in a statement that despite "several major inadequacies" of the new price control law "we believe the act can still serve to check infla 'ion if wisely administered and if buttressed by intelligent con sumer action." The committee said that "mini-1 mum program" was necessary to make the act work: "1. A strong stand on the part of the government administra tive agencies involved against premature decontrol of all basic commodities. with immediate emphasis on foodstuffs. "2. Immediate adoption of ad ministrative policies and proced ures which will guarantee that commodities will be recontrolled when prices give evidence of be coming inflationary. "3. Strengthened enforcement by OPA of all price ceilings. "4. Assumption by the Presi dent-.. . . of the important respon sibility for co-ordinating the anti inflation fight, a responsibility clearly implied in the new legis lation. We recommend that the President take immediate steps to set up advisory committees to represent the consumer view in all agencies charged with admin istering the present act. "5. As an indispensable part of the foundation for effective gov ernment action in controlling in flation, the establishment on the part of consumers of a strong consumer organization on a local, state and national basis."

Seed Grazing Crop* For Cheeper Feeds Supplemental grazing crops for fall, winter, and spring graz ing furnish some of the cheapest feed that a fanner can grow, say livestock, men and agronomists of the State College Extension Service and the Agricultlral Ki periment Station. They lay down four simple mles for success with these crop^. These rules are: seed early, seed heavy, crass drill in seeding so as to get a perfect stand; and ap ply plenty of fertilizer at planting and some nitrogen in the fall and again in the spring. The time to plant is in August for the western part of North Carolina and September for the eastern half. Dr. R. L. Loworn, pasture crops specialist, suggests a seed ing of one bushel each of barley, oats, and rye per acre plus 15 pounds of Italian rye grass and 15 pounds of crimson clover. Three bushels of oats and one bushel of rye added to the rye grass land drimson clover also mokes a good seeding combina tion. Some farmers are seeding 30 pounds of ryr ?Trass and 20 pounds of crimson clover per acre. Where a grower finds that he is unable to seed until real late in the season, after the Hessian fly-free date, he can use a mix ture of 2 bushels of wheat, 20 pounds of rye grass, and 15 pounds of crimson clover. Farmers are using 0-8-6 fer tilizer at rates depending on the fertility of the land for the ini tial fertilization. On rich land they are starting with 3000 pounds yer acre and this amount u increased on the medium to poor lands, depending on the richness of the soil and whether' it is particularly sandy or not.
