V Letter Frmn Tennessee Dear BdRor: We hear much about the churches going to prayer when the invasion starts, but why must we wait until our boys have been sacrificed? Why not pray nov( and bnlld a wall of protection around them? In Knoxville they are calling the people to prayer by eonnding of whistles, bells and sirens. What are we waiting on? Are we too busy to pray and thus fall our boys who have gone out to save us? If all the cities of America could catch a vision of the horrors of this war and re member that God has'promised to save if we call, surely the siren calls, mingled with our prayers and tears, would storm the Heav ens and the God of Israel would answer as in the days of old.

Charlotte. — The local ration boards must await announcement of June quotas before they can -.o anything about the backlog of ap proved applications for Grade I^ tires which have piled up since thsj announcement that holders of B and C gasoline ration books are el« igible for the grade I tires. ; A. Monroe Hollingsworth, dis*j trict OPA rationing executive, for the western North Carolina area, has explained that the new eligi-i bility rules for the B and C book® holders went into effect in May. The result was that many appli cations for grade I tires were ap proved by the local rationing boards. The quotas assigned the various boards, however, were hardly changed from the quotas which had been assigned during the pe riods when grade I eligibUity had been limited to only a few holders of high mileage C cards. The situation created was one in which the local boards approved a great many applications but were unable to issue the actual tire cer tificates because the quotas were exhausted. Mr. Hollingsworth said that the local boards simply had their hands tied, and that the fhnlt was not theirs. He said that regional headquarters of the OPA at At lanta, Georgia, has notified the district officials that there will be no additional grade I quota as signments in this month. Wheth er the June quotas will be In creased, to take care of the in creased demands for grade I tiraa was unknown yesterday at dUtzict ofOees, it was sald> , ' ' ■ yi ■■m BOYER!
