The first target towing flights were handled by the Illinois Wing of the Civil Air Patrol, but accord ing to local CAP offici'ls, it is pos sible that this practice may be started here in the future. This, function of the CAP is vital to na tional defense, since it releases army and navy plane sfor mili tary duty of other types. Under conditions of mock war fare, the CAP airplanes not only will perform patrol, scouting and ' escorting duty with the ground troops, but during the ourse o the maneuvers will carry out sim ulated dives and straffing opera tions so as to give the troops prac tice maneuvers in deploying. The local wing of the CAP is vitally interested in securing new members for the organization and interested parties are requested to contact Warren Pennington, exec utive officer. 4 -V W. H.

W. REID “Our nation not only needs arm ed forces and defense workers, but it must also have trained Chris tian leaders capable of restoring order in a wrecked world,” says Dr. John O. Gross of the Board of Education of the Methodist church, in a plea that youth be made to understand that prepar ing themselves for leadership in the future nation is a patriotic duty. “It would be unfortunate for the nation and church if youth with high aptitudes for scholarship and spiritual leadership cannot com plete plans to attend college. It is these years of college that lay the foundation for the later achieve ments in the arts, the humanities, and the sciences.” PEACE STUDIES At Princeton seminary, at West ern seminary in Pittsburgh, at the Presbyterian seminary in Chicago, and within the synods of Ohio, Il linois and Michigan, the Presby terian church in the U.S.A. is hold ing a series of studies on the Christian bases for a peace that will be effective and for postwar reconstruction. The studies will be conducted under the auspices of the denomination’s department of Social Education and Action of which the Rev. Cameron P. Hall is chairman. It is planned later to take such studies to the campuses of Presbyterian colleges and uni versities throughout the country. Y.M.C.A. SERVES PRISONERS Since the outbreak of the present World war, more than 600 camps of prisoners of war, civilian in terneos, and other victims of war, in 28 countries and on five conti nents, have been served through the War Prisoners’ Aid of th e Y. M. C. A. which has its head quarters in Geneva, Switzerland. CATHOLICS IN INDIA The Roman Catholic church has in India, Ceylon and Burma, three archdioceses and thirteen dioceses entrusted to the care of Indian bishops, and more than 3,000 In dian priests are serving the churches and people. Most of the Indian bishops and priests have been trained at the Catholic gen eral seminary at Kandy on t h e island of Ceylon. FELLOWSHIPS FORMED According to the Rev. William Paton, of London, Eng^ secretary of the World Council of Churches and of the British Council of Churches, now on a visit to the United States, a group of “Chris tian fellowships” have been form ed in London between British European countries now residing in England. These include the Brit ish-Russian Christian Fellowship, and Anglo-Scandinavian, Anglo Norwegian, Anglo-French, Anglo Netherlands, and Anglo-German church leaders and refugees from Christian Fellowships; and then there is a joint fellowship includ ing representatives of all the s e groups. Dr. Paton says these fel lowships are contributing much to international Christian understand ing and will have considerable in fluence on post-war peace and post-war church activities. RELIEF PROJECTS The Church committee for China Relief, which is sponsored by most of the major Protestant denomi nations in the United States, is us ing some of its funds for two im portant relief projects connected with hospitals in China. Its "Qui nine Fund" is purchasing else where in the Orient large quanti ties of quinine that is distributed to mission hospitals to fight ma laria that has arisen in epidemic proportions in many parts of China due to the war; and through the International Red Cross for Cen tral China it is distributing drugs and medical supplies to some 96 civilian hospitals in Free rWest) China, as well as to dispensaries, refugee camps, and orphanages.

T. Murchison, president of the Cotton Textile Institute, predicted today that government control of wage's and agricultural prices would be ac complished “indirectly” through existing agencies, rather than by Congressional action. Addressing the closing session of the American Cotton Manufacturers’ association, Dr. Murchison said lie believed only “spectacular develop ments” could bring definite statut ory action, but added: “The same results will be obtained by indirect methods—through the Commodity Credit corporation, for example, the War Production board, and the Office of Price Administra tion.” —T-7771 NOTHING LIKE IT UNDER-//X AlOO%C/£4W, ftfi'fiOY/ the SUN OR, MOON /W&JOhEfl# W£¥C& \ BILLRDViS I j ^;OTcomEDiRn£ i‘i> LADIES IDLE / THIS DATE' (Accompanied/y one. paid Aduif ticdef J SOAM/Vy~ GIRLS, mmm BTrfBLT TO # COUNT ( W ) L) "THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH FOR THE.J&QNEY /» # 4r add ’s% ATTRACTION |f SUPREME J "MING TOY" Sensational Chinese £ jSsk Dancing Star jam PfO/lf BUT fflxri/ffmsl Pleasing:—Teasing __l 4 V JK*J/YE'E5*/ ... ; JOtZCES/ CtoMren'iJh SFJUTIFUL NEW ddl/Its 35c WATERPAOOf BlUEandm/Tt-——— % TENT 1 0MRST/5 \ mATjfEl op^Um.
