Advisory Committee On Prisoners
of War shows that the Reds were
actually badly disappointed over
the rate of conversions among U. S.
prisoners of war.
Evidently the Communists
thought that brainwashing tech
niques would win over a large per
centage of American prisoners to
Communism. Many of the Commu
nists engaged in the effort actually
believed in Communism to such an
extent they :. thought" conversion
would follow,, once the Americans
were shown the truth:
... But the resistance and the loyal
tyj to the American way amazed
many , Communists. Because the

supposed that G.l.'s would 'ietf the

"other side." ,
. But American prisoners were the
ones who knew the truth and Com
munist fanatics, trying to convince
American POW's that Communism
is - the coming thing, 'were up
against an almost solid wall of re
sistance. '. ' : '

Care Needed For
Casual Clothes
With the trend; to casual living,
most of us spend a greater amount
of our budget, for casual clothes.
They are far from being inexpen-

to produce stains but should you
fall and actually rupture the grass
by a rubbing action, pressure, or
both, you will stain your clothing.
Don't let a grass stain age in
your garment. Have it removed
immediately. The older the stain,
the more difficult is removal. In
some caseit may be impossible
to remove a stain allowed to re
main for long in the fabric. It is
not advisable to attempt home I
methods of stain removal on grass
stains. They require special com
plicated techniques as well as spe
cial reagents that involve risk in
the hands of an untrained person.!
Actually, you are dealing with two
types of stains in one the pigment
chlorophyll, and complex tannin
compounds.
Outdoor cooking and food prepa
ration has also brought with it the
chance .of more staining of your
caual garments with mustard and
catsup. Both of these have artifi
cial coloring materials added to
them. Again, there are two dis-
tirct types of staining substances

crease of 10,000 acres over last

ports from growers as of August 1,
the yield per acre is estimated at
1,525 pounds. This compares with

Tar Heel Farmers Get
Highest CCC Supports
The highest Commodity Credit
Corporation support prices in
America are available to North
Carolina's farmers due to their
close proximity to mills, accord
ing to W. Glenn Tussey, ' ex tension
farm management and marketing
specialist. '
Tussey emphasizes, however, that
to receive, . the highest dollar , for
their cotton, farmers should exert
'every effort to harvest, handle, and
g.'n quality cotton. , ',
A sample from each bale should
be submitted for government clas
sification to the Raleigh Classing
Office. This unbiased grade and
staple report, coupled with use tot
market news information, will thu
enable the farmer to make the wis-';
est marketing decision, to sell, to
hold, or to receive CCC support
prices by securing a government '
loan. . , '
