New Shoe Stamp 'Must Last Until Oct. 31 The OPA has announced that 1 the new shoe ration stamp which (became valid on Wednesday must last civilians through October 31. The new stamp will have to last | fcr four and one half months, which is 11 days longer than : stamp 17. However, OPA said that the dates were in line with the policy of providing an aver iage of tr.ree pairs per year. As in the case of Stamp 17, stamp 18 will be transferable within a family so that, for in stance, a parent who does not r.eed his stamp may use it for a child. I The announcement disposed of unofficial reports that OPA would [encourage the use of the No. 18 j stamp for the purchase of white .summer shoes. While OPA ha 3 : , jiio objection to anyone buying any kind of shoes he prefers, it made it plain it is not provid ing any extr«, stamps for such a purpose. WHY ADMIRAL YAMAMOTO HATED THE U. S. Death of Admi.oi Vamamoto lecalls how the Japanese naval leader boasted he would dictate 1 the terms of peace in the White' House. Why Yamamoto hated the United States is revealed in a feature article in the July 4th issue of The American Weekly, the big magazine distributed with the Baltimore Sunday Amercan. Order from your local dealer. If the 1942 rate of shoe buying in this country had been contin ued in 1943, sales would have ex ceeded shoe production by at least 100 million pairs. tWar Bonds should mean something more to you than just "a good sound Invest ment."

"rakniltewssM?;' 7 ; ; alxcrut tfie AAA arui otJie\y I CXTCNSION WORK ' IW& Xrt Because of the labor shortage, Congress has set aside money for ' the adjustment of our labor prob lem. In Stokes couuty there are no workers that can be transport- : ' ed ir.to our section to relieve this shortage. However, Mr. R. M. Green, principal of Walnut Cove High School, has been' appointed the labor assistant for Stokes county. He will work in coopera tion with all the agricultural ag encies. Mr. Green will immediately be gin aiding farmers in the harvest ing of their small grain crop. Ii you have a grain crop sowed and do not yet have any assurance of getting your grain harvested, you are urged to contact Mr. Green by letter or by visiting him at the County Agent's Office. He will immediately visit your farm and ' attempt to make arrangements to have your crop saved for vcu. L' ! you are a combine or thresher operator, Mr. Green will help you iTi routing your course if you will give him the opportunity. In thh way, we can hope to harvest ev ery bit of the grain that has been sowed. j Due to the feed shortage, it is important that we harvest all of our grain. If, at any time, you have a labor or machine shortage in your neighborhood feel free to call on Mr. Green as he is here to serve the farm people. Recent rains have assured us a large hay crop in Stokes county this year. Reliable county farm ers say that last year we harvest ed the largest hay crop in the i history of the county. When spring came this year practically all this crop had been consumed by our livestock, and we found ourselves going to neighboring' counties and paying them ex-1 tremely high prices for hay. This I ! (year we want to produce and 1 harvest at least one-fourth more J hay than we did last year. It will be needed to feed our in-', creased number of livestock and ', enable us to be self-sufficient. It , is still not to late to sow soybeans, cowpeas, and corn for hay, silage j i nd grain. ( In order that they might cope with the situation, the Vade Mecura Farm isj constructing a tile silo; and Rog-1 er Calloway, of Tobaccoville, has ' cut timber for the erection of an j' joctagon silo. However, if you, 1 are not in the position to buiid an upright silo you are advised to dig a trench silo. This is very effective and inexpensive way of feed for the small dairy -1 man. A large number of the 1 trench silos will be filled this fall. E. S. Stokes, acting county agent, is in his office each Mon day and Saturday morning and ' will discuss with you the feed sit uation or any other questions you " have in regard to your farming 1 activities. India supplied 2000 miles of bandages to troops in the African campaign. ! ALLIES DESTROY 937 PLANES IN TWO MONTHS " | New York. —Major Gen. George E. Stratemeyer, chief of the air stall', army air forces, disclosed yesterday that since April 15 Ai 'icd aircraft in North Africa and the Middle East destroyed 685 enemy aircraft in air combat and 252 other on the ground with i loss of only 237 planes. At a press conference follow ing his return from an inspection tour ot the European and African war theatres, General Stratemey er also said that during the same period the Allies destroyed 113 Axis ships of all kinds in the Mediterranean. "If there is one lesson we have ( learned from Africa, the Mediter ranean ana Europe," he said, "it !is that our air power must not be used piecemeal and so dissipat ed. In the Tunisian battle the tastical air force was used as an integrated force to achieve air su periority by blasting the enemy air force out of the sky. "It was not used piecemeal, one parcel as an umbrella to protect ground troop elsewhere, dividing itself into easily opposable seg ments and accomplishing nothing. It was a solid force, commanded by airmen." ! Stating that the Allies had ach ieved a 3-to-l air ratio in the Mediterranean against a "tough, battle-wise foe," General Strate meyer declared: "Our airplane production today far exceeds that of the Axis. ( Theirs is a rapidly wasting, ours a growing, air power. At the ra (tio of 3-to-l under conditions ( which should have been favorable |to them, their losses must take 'on, fo rthe Axis, the asspect of calamity. j "Our army air forces havi known a number of recent days |of operations without enemy air opposition . The number of those 1 days will increase as we get along with this war, if we keep on knocking down the enemy at the current rate. We have every confidence we will do so." I I The amount of aviation gaso ! line needed to carry 300 Libera tor bombers from a British base ko Berlin and return is equivalent to the amount of general purpose gasoline distributed in the city of Baltimore in 24 hours.
