PERIOD EXTENDED ON COTTON LOANS pledges on 1938*39-40 Crops Allowed 60-Day Period for Redemption WASHINGTON, July 31.— UP) — The Agriculture department an nounced today that it would allow farmers until October 1 to repay ut-standing loans and redeem cot ton pledged under 1938, 1939 anu, 1940 loan programs. rhe Joans were dated to expire tomorrow. Loans outstanding on luly 26 involved 491,876 bales, of ■hich 109, 214 bales were from the ImO crop, 2,631 bales from 1939 -nd 380,031 from 1938. Because of recent sharp price advances, many growers already lave redeemed and sold their cot ton for more than enough to repay their loans. The department said that cottcm ot redeemed by October 1 would jje placed in pools and sold after ‘neXt March 1. The net proceeds of such pools, if any, after deduc tion of all loans and accrued costs, including storage, insurance, and handling charges, would be dis tributed among producers whose -otton had been placed in the pool, in proportion to their interest. 2 Masonic Lodge. Deeds Building To Southport SOUTHPORT, July 31—The Ma sonic building, long known as the .Army and Navy club, has been deed ed to the City of Southport, the Masons retaining the meeting hall upstairs. The basketball court, din jn!r room and other downstairs rooms are all in the transfer. No consideration entered into the deal further than that the property will revert to the Masons if and when the planned uses are abandoned. It is understood that rather ex tensive improvements are planned with the building to be used for pub lic purposes. Included in the plans are the building nearby of paved tennis courts, construction and fencing of a baseball park. During the many years of occu pancy of Fort Caswell, thousands and thousands of soldiers used the Army and Navy Club for recreation purposes; a purpose to which it will again be put with more extensive and more modern facilities. While the details have not been an nounced. it is understood fairly defi nitely that the first Naval Recrea tion Center on the Carolina coast will be located here. USO Representative Praises Wilmington Center for Soldiers Gordon W. Avison, representing 'he United Service Organizations, yesterday told members of the Wil mington Lions club that they had every right to be proud of the Woodrow Wilson recreational hut lor soldiers, located at Fourth and Princess streets. Mr. Avison was a guest at the weekly meeting of the club, held in the Friendly Res taurant. Mr. Avison said the hut is the only one of its type which has been completed in the United States. Reports on the recent convention of Lions International, held in New Orleans, were made by President Eugene Bullard, L. T. Landen, A. L King and R. B. Roebuck. The club voted to lend its as sistance to the Lions auxiliary in staging a picnic for soldiers at the hut in the near future. The exact bate was not fixed. There will be a club directors’ meeting at 12:45 o’clock next Thursday afternoon, prior to the regular meeting. According to estimates, each American family used approxi mately 2295 pounds of finished steel in 1939. 4 DAVIESS COUNTY KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY • 90 PROOF | ^tolli»^ bvlho FI.ltchn.onn Dlltillinp Corporation.

Camp Davis Volley Fire By p. r. n. Soldiers’ Feet Grow Quite a number of Uncle Sam’s new soldiers have found the com fortable shoes they wore in civilian life are now a size too small. And some of the men -who joked about the large shoes issued them in re ception centers have filled them out and then some. According to a report from the War department bureau of public relations, this increase in the size of feet was to be expected, espcial ly among thse trainees who general ly kept off their feet during civil ian work, but now do much march ing. . , Record Firing Begins After satisfactorily completing pieliminary firing on the small arms range, men of the 93rd C. A. have started “record” rifle firing, in which their scores will be tabulated. Marksmanship medals will be awarded soldiers with high scores in record fire. Approximately 2,200 sol diers and 100 officers of the 93rd are firing. linsur.uaI Situation Members of Battery C, 94th C;A., can’t make the old com plaint that "there weren’t enough girls to go around.” At a dance held recently for the battery in the Hut at Wilming ton, the girls outnumbered the soldiers two to one. All horses and mules in the army (hat are expected to participate in the coming maneuvers in the South and Southwest have been vaccinated against both the eastern and west ern variety of sleeping sickness. Two types of the disease, eastern and western, separated by the Ap palachian range, have been recog nized for some time. The east va riety is the more virulent. Grit Pvt. Willard V. Bennett of Head quarters Battery, 2nd Battalion, 94th C. A., is entitled to a generous helping of credit. For he made the hike to and from Sears Landing last week just after getting out of the hospital, where he had been quar tered for a month. Financial Straits From the correspondent of Bat tery D, 94th C A., comes the follow ing plaintive note: "Battery D has a Vanderbilt and a Rockafellow . . . and no money.” Lengthy Correspondence Johnny Olson of Battery L 94th, has good reason to be proud of his girl friend and am pie excuse to display her photo graph in a prominent place. She is a prolific letter writer, her epistles measuring 18 pages at times. 93rd Entertains During the Wilmington Day pro gram last Monday, the 93rd C. A. played host to approximately 800 persons.
