FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1943 OH ON THE TROUBLED WAT E ft S Heavier Taxes Inevitable While we have no figures for North Carolina, a Washington dispatch says that the Ruml Plan version will re sult in a per capita "forgiveness" which ranges from $7 in North Da kota to $730 in Delaware. Frankly, we are not interested in any alleged "forgiveness" because what comes to the taxpayer in this manner will be more than taken from him by other and additional taxa tion. Despite the long debate in Con gress, the propaganda that fooled millions of Americans and the efforts of politicians to acquire a flicker of popularity, the fact remains that the nation is spending so much money for war purposes that heavier taxa tion is inevitable. So far as we can see, it makes little difference to the average citi zen whether the money is taken from him on the basis of a 1942 income tax or a 1943 war-financing tax. The net result for most little Americans will .be heavier than ever and there is no way to avoid them. Shortage Of Anti-freeze Again Faces Motorists Increased war demands for anti freeze chemicals, necessitating gov ernment regulations prohibiting the sale of "ethylene-glycol" type, com monly known as "permanent" anti freeze for ordinary use, are cited by Ed Hedner, Chevrolet national direc tor of service, as an urgent reason why car and truck users should take special pains to conserve this fluid. In line with their Victory Service League pledge to "Save the Wheels that Serve America," Chevrolet deal ers are cooperating fully with car and truck owners in conserving anti freeze solutions, not only to save critical chemicals but also to assure future cold weather operation of mo tor vehicles.

STATE SOIL CONSERVATION COMMITTEE, By I. 0. SCHAUB, Chairman. Dated: 8th day of June, 1943. junell,18. Aerial War A Second Front The ever-pounding aerial offensive against Axis-held Europe is reaching an intensity that compels observers to recognize that the strategy of bombing enemy centers has created a second Iront. i These attacks make it clear that! strategic bombing will receive a full! 1 l 4.ut ir k. i : .. . I tuai tuiu uiab ail eiiuib is unrig uuuic to completely disrupt Axis industry and destroy Axis defenses. Already, it is reported that the Germans are not repairing major in dustrial establishments in the bomb ing zones, apparently transferring them to Southeastern Europe in an .i. . i i chui b tu escape uie uumuers. During the month of May, the United States lost 72 bombers oper ating against Europe from Great Britain, and the British lost 228 air craft. In the previous four months of the year, American losses were onlv 85 bombers, while British losses were 601. Thus, in May, the combined air lorce casualties were 300 bombers aa compared to 686 in the first four .months of the year. This indicates Ty- the extent to which the aerial offen- fo sive has been unleashed. - While there is considerable specu lation as to the full fruits of an aerial offensive, it is certain that terrific damage is being inflicted up on enemy industrial centers. The fact that our air forces accept the loss of 300 planes in a month, together with- the loss of their crews, definitely indicates that, in the opin ion of our high command, the bomb ing of Germany is expected to pro duce astonishing results. While Europe was being plastered with explosives, the Mediterranean islands and Italy were visited daily by heavy air fleets, often involving as many as three hundred planes. "Mrs. Cincinnati" Among farm women in war indus tries count the farm wife. It is she who has much to do with furnishing the food which sustains other women at their labors in ordnance or muni tions plants, in addition to providing sustenance for men on the fighting fronts. While she may not spend long, well-paying hours in airplane fac tories, she is vastly concerned in turning out an equally important va riety of "wings," poultry, which, by taking the place of meats, enables hundreds of housewives to conserve precious ration points, and eggs, wnicn in aumuon 10 iurnisninir war ' jworkers' breakfasts, when dehydrat ed and sent abroad, provide a wel- 1 come change of menu for America's armed forces and the civilian nnnula- r tions of embattled nations. in these doubly busy times she is held at home. Her hands nonetheless . 1- i 1 Tvax.il Hcrusa wie bea vu tuier. tuiuer '1 J 1 x A l i jenu-iease agreements, bwjjuah, uacun : "and other meats. Many ruralists, busy from dawn to dusk overcoming the farm labor shortage, are leaving the care and feeding of livestock largely to their wives. And the wiv es, especially those with 4-H Club training, are meeting the emergency with entire success. She has not donned slacks to build General Grants, but she has more than a nodding acquaintance with the tank's younger brother, the trac tor, and can put it through is paces before plow or harrow. Many a seeded field bears witness to the farm wife's determination and adaptability. While women war workers use their pay checks to buy bonds, she dips deep into her "butter and egg" mon ey for a like purpose. Her bond buying has enabled many a rural community to meet its quota. Farm wives are serving their coun try well in 1943. They may be lik ened to those "high privates in the rear ranks" whose names are seldom mentioned in dispatches. But they win battles.

You are prob ably doing all you can to stretch the life of your tires watching your speed and tire pressures closely avoiding unneces sary driving. This is patriotic, for rub ber is scarce. But the Government wants your car kept rolling, and the new mile age rationing tire regulations make more drivers eligible to have worn tires recap ped or replaced. . Holders of A, B or C books who can show essential peed for re placement, are eligible. So, when one of your tires become worn, or unsafe, see an authorizedtire inspector to find out if he is warranted in jfecommending a recap or replacement to your local ration board. Many Pufe Oil dealers have been ap pointed official OPA tire inspectors. See the one bedrest you for inspections, re placements", or the frequent services which lengthen tire life."
