Newspaper Gives Adequate
Picture Of What
Civilian Defense Means
The following letter, published
in the (Culpeper) Virginia Star,
might very well represent the
thoughts of many.
Dear Sir:
In your letter in The Star last
week you complained as to why
the people of Mitchells do not respond
to the call for volunteers for
the U. S. Army Aircraft Warning
System and act as watches at
the observation posts set up all
over the Eastern Seaboard by the
Signal Corps arm of the Army
Air Corps.

! The people of Mitchells are no
I different from the people of Rix-;
i eyville or Edward Store or Jeffer!
sonton or Lakata or Castleton and
| Washington, or many other comj
munities where these observation
i posts are.
I At all these posts the few who!
man them are terribly overwork- j
| ed, and many of these posts had
! to be cut out entirely because the1
j people who lived around them I
would not respond to the call of
their own government to help pro- [
J tect the lives of Americans.
And here are the reasons why I
they won't serve: "Too busy;" I
"don't pay nothing;" "interferes j
with my sleep;" "I work too;
hard;" "so and so told me that
! they were going to cut us out, I
too many posts;" "can't leave my
family alone;" "boss won't givej
; me time to serve;" "don't like the
guy I serve with;" "don't like the
chief observer;" "don't like the di-.
! rector;" "don't like Roosevelt, he
got this country into trouble ;
! "don't like the rationing board,
they won't give me tires to ride
on;" "gonna quit because my
i neighbors won't serve" ? and
I hundreds of other reasons.
A TOTAL WAR
j But coming down to the real
facts why they won't serve, and
I some who do serve but got tired
and quit, and some who promised
I to serve and don't serve, is this:
There are too many of us who
have lost sight of the fact that
[ this a total war; that it involves
; every man, woman and child in
America; and if all of us don't
| wake up to this fact and do more
than just our part we might not
enjoy our freedom and liberties
much longer; that there are many
anti-administrationists in every
j community who go about among
i their fellowmen and talk about
I the many mistakes and errors
that got us into this war and are
I encouraging the many fine Araer|
icans not to do their part to help
win his war. Too much mouthing
and too little effort; too much
j complaining; too much unjust crij
tidsm and too little willingness.

I How Hitler must laugh at the y<
' many friends he has here in w
i America. And the men and worn'en
who refuse to come to the aid
. of their country in her direst hour
< of need are friends of Hitler. fr
I Blunt words these, but an inj
escapable fact ? that is, you are 11
i either for or against your coun- er
itry" ,f tt
This is not a war of politics; it
is not a war of individuals; it is
not a war of religions; it is not a w
war of theories. It is a total war m
to take from you what your fore- ss
fathers gave to you ? the right Hi
to live in peace and freedom.
Are we getting as Hitler said, is
soft and decadent? He said it and er
believes that we are. Are you in
folks going to stand and let what ot
he said be the truth or are you h<
going to say to him: "Hitler, from al
this day on what you said about cc
us being soft; that our will to pl
fight and win is gone and our
women and children are mongrels j ^
is a dastardly lie ? and we are m
going to prove it to you. We will ta
show you who is safe. We will p{
watch the skies for your (jombers
We will watch the skies for your er
Nazi spies and saboteurs. We h{
will from this day on not rest a T1
single hour or a single moment ne
until we prove to you by our ev- be
ery action and our every word! fo
that you lie." If you will think I sa

EVES AND EARS
It is a proven fact that this
thod of watching- the skies for
.nes is the only way our interior
planes can know where to
d the enemy plane's. It is the
ly way that our men who man
! anti-aircraft batteries which
.'end our cities can be ready to
>ot down any raiders that dare
ade our laud. It is the only
y that our F. B. I. and our
my aircraft can find just
ere and what enemy planes are
to and where they are headYou
act as eyes and ears for
! U. S. Army Air Corps. To you
given this task of serving your
mtry ? without glory or
thout pay. If all people in all
nmunities woula serve it would
an an hour a month or possi'
two hours a month. But 'as it
many men and women have
serve as much as 12 to 14
irs at a stretch. This is too
ich, and yet these fine Ameriis
do it every day and night ?
;ping these posts open 24 hours
lay so that Americans might be
'e from Hitler's bombers.
[hat is your job. No one can
it for you. You and you alone
l prove yourself worthy of your
ht to live a free man. Your
efathers did it.
Remember, they threw us the
ch to bear, the torch of freePTEMBER

i says Dr. C. D. Grinnells, veterl
ins.-ian of the Agricultural Ext
periment Station at N. C. State
, College.
More pigs generally mean less
3 attention per pig, the veterinarJ
ian pointed out. Yet fall weather
conditions are ideal for a great
number of swine disease compli>
cations.
Every hog house should be dis1
infected thoroughly, well bedded,
, and ventilated properly. Precaur
tions should be taken to prevent
t pigs from piling up at night, with
consequent chilling in the mom-|
. tag.
Sunless days in the late fall |
3 increase the danger from rickets
. and vitamin deficiency diseases.
Rations should be checked with
j this danger in view, the State
, College livestock authority ad'
vised. Wet weather also increases
j the threat of pneumonia and in,
fluenza. Proper housing and
' prompt control measures in case
, of sickness are the best steps |
against these two destructive killers.
