FRIDAY, JANUARY 15, 1943 AN IMPORTANT OMISSION The New Rationing Within a very short tune tne Office of l'r.ce Administration will put in to effect the new system of ration ing foodstuffs. This system will be known as the "point system." Full details concerning the plan will be made known by the local office of the OPA. However, this new system will bear studying and we advise every resident to learn full details of the plan for mutual benefit of themselves and the merchants. From what we have been able to digest thus far, the system is not a complicated affair, but it is so ar ranged that unless the housewife does give it some thinking she might find herself short of coupons at cri tical times. The Weekly will attempt to carry full explanation of the plan at the time it is to become effective, and we advise our readers to watch our columns in order to learn complete ietails of the plan.

I These foregoing Rules and Regular I tions adopted by the Town of Hert or, ford and the Board of Health, in ac which permit shall be issued Present Mysteries About JThe War There are growing mysteries in connection with the w ar, and the answer to them may give some light upon the probable length of the struggle. Chief of the mysteries is the ap parent inability of Germany to rein force her African contingents with air power, which they sadly lack. Whether this is due to losses in Rus sia, laCK OI proaucuon or u Bicuw individual r ghts. The time will come for this later. Today, we fight a war. Tomorrow THE ANSWERS 1. S.r per cent. 2. Gen. Francis Marion, may claim a million American lives Revolutionary soldier. U. S. if we divide our strength in selfish squabbles and foolishly quarrel at home. Of what avail the death of men in jungles and at sea if all they surrender is consumed in business as usual, life as usual and politics as usual ? What soldier or sailor would will ingly give up his life for blatant householders whose icomplaint is that their rooms are chilly? How many men should die to 'protect selfish people who are unwilling to accept food rationing that soldiers might eat? Who should perish that arro gant Americans may continue to com plain over sugar rationing and other small sacrfices? Undoing: Nazi Evil The United Nations warning that transfers of property in occuDied i countries will be subject to scrutiny, after the war, and may be voided even though apparently legal and voluntary, shoul I assure people in! these countries that Nazi methods' of looting Europe arc not unknown to the American, British and . othei i powerful Governments now waging! war against Fascism.

In some of the small States, Nazi manipula tors of finance, backed by Nazi force, have been busy making over the banking structures. They have teen tying the currency system to the Ger man economy in such a way as to in sure chaos when the Nazis are forced to depart. It w'll often be nearly impossible to judge claims to property in these countries, though much documentarv the Japanese to reinforce their sol diers in New Guinea. When news comes of such an attempt we read of cruisers and destroyers landing sol diers and supplies, not cargo ships and troop ships. What has happen ed to the Japanese merchant ships,! without which long supply lines can- j not be served and conquered areas cannot be looted?

NEWBY, Clerk j 3d se AND Munllec our air torces in India, Burma ano pie-war ownersnip exists in China, that "the Japanese air force' government offices, banking houses everywhere has ' been materially weakened" and that the Japanese admit it. He says Jap planes in liurma and China have been moved "rapidly from one airdrome to an other as airdromes get too hot." Perhaps the greatest mystery of all is the extent of German troop losses in Russia. There is a reluct ance to accept Moscow's estimates of Nazi casualties but the Red army fights confidently and the German leg ons have been unable to annihil ate the "Communists," except on paper. There is the suspicion that the Moscow estimates are close to the ami legal firms, throughout the! United Nations. But the policy of not recognizing doubtful claims at least promises a serious effort to j d stinguish between dispossessed pa-; t riots and fattened Quislings. 1 Beyond the aim of achieving as '; much justice as will be possible in the j future, the warning should have some important immediate effects. In one' form or another th's warning will be; transmitted to the peoples of the oc-! cupied countries.

Every American must decide, for himself or herself, whether to sup port the nation in its wars, which means the cheerful acceptance of sac r fices that give strength and protec tion to men who are risking their lives on the fighting fronts. We are desperately engaged by ruthless enemies. We did not attack them; they ganged up on us. Inevit ably, the nation moved toward suc cessful defense,- even if it proceeded slowly, ponderously and inefficently, in the manner of democracies. Intell gent Americans did not, and do not, expect a miracle in the man agement of government or of military matters. They understand that when we go to war, we are amateurs, op posed by professionals. As with all democratically controlled states, we were not organized socially, economi cally, politically or militarily for all out warfare. .

The legal beer industry gives, jobs to 13,000 North Carolinians. It pays then salaries totalling more than $12,000 000 a year. Its steadily growing taxes $200,000 to the state in 1942 are tremendous aid in advancing many pnblie services. The loss of these taxes would mean that you would have to dig still deeper into your pocket to maintain these services. To protect such contributions to our state's welfare, the brewing industry carries a self-regulation program designc to assure wholesome condi tions wherever beer is sold.
