was established a month ago. Con.
voys have proved highly effective
in protecting trans-Atlantic ship
ping, and it was assumed that suf
ficient escort vessels for the coast
wise trade were just becoming
available.
The provision of ships to carry
men and supplies is one of the
first necessities in creating a sec
ond front in Europe, or striking
with concentrated power at the
enemy in any theater of war.
For the first time during Church

participated in the conference.
They included:
Harry L. Hopkins, 1 the Presi

cooperative effort of the three
great religious faiths. This is a
long step in the right direction. It
is significant that this step should
be taken at a time when our ene
mies are attempting to split us up
into antagonistic groups.
“USO represents the American
way of doing things, as far as
great social agencies are concern
ed. I believe in private social age
cies, inspired by the ideals of serv
ice, mercy and love. If USO fails
in this effort, it marks the end of
private social work in America. It
must succeed.”
The Rev. Mr. Freed told of how
the local USO had aided a young
American citizen, wno is serving in
the Canadian air force, when he
became stranded in Wilmington.
He also related instances of where
USO is helping wives and relatives
of soldiers.
W. S. McMahon, county chair
man of the drive, pointed out that
the organization is not a govern
ment endowed institution. He said
“the government built the building
and the rest is up to us.” Mr.
McMahon cited how the commun
ity is benefitting financially by the
increased population and urged
“let us, then, gladly do our share
in this work.”
“USO provides a relief from
boredom for the men who have
been confined in camps. We know
what this means. A social problem
of no mean proportion will exist if
we do not have a healthy rallying
point for the thousands of men who
are coming to our community ev
ery week to find recreation.”
After praising local leadership,
C. McD.’ Davis, chairmen of Dis
trict No. 2 which includes 14 east
ern counties, declared “we are de
pendent upon the armed forces.
The least we can do is support
this organization as it seeks *o
serve our national defenders. If we
do not win this war life will not be
worth living. We must win, but the
only way to win is to support our
armed forces. We can help by aid
ing USO in making their lives as
pleasant as possible We have set
our goal. I am confident that you
will not fail.”
B. F. Sutherland, co-chairman of
the county and head of the com
merce and industries committee of
solicitation said “we are just be
ginning to work. If we' get our
message to the people, they will
give freely.”
Pomeroy Nicnois, cnairman or
the A. C. L. group, said substan
tial contributions had been made
by A, C. L. employes and that so
licitation would be completed soon.
“I am in this job because I be
lieve in USO and have worked for
it from the start. This is my
chance to do my part for the sol
diers in the service.” He praised
the work of the committee chair
men and outlined the program of
solicitation to be carried out this
week.
Declaring that more workers are
needed, Mr. McMahon urged that
anyone willing to solicit for the
cause contact Mr. Huntington at
the Y. M. C. A.
Committees, will report their pro
gress in the drive at a meeting
scheduled for the evening of July 2

hired a man to lay them, howler,
the repair would not con®^der
the ceiling.
For seasonal services, the order
provides an adjustable price for
mula based on rises in the cost of
living since last year. The renter
of boats at a summer resort, for
instance, may charge the highest
price he charged in the corres
ponding season of 1941, plus the
percentage of increase in the cost
of living between then and March,
1942. The Office of Price Admin
istration supplied a table giving
these figures. Dry cleaners also
might use the seasonal formula.
The order completes the over-all
ceiling program begun by Price
Administrator Leon Henderson
April 28 with the issuance of the
universal price order covering all
commodities used, worn and eaten
The regulation automatically li
censes every firm in the consumer
services field and makes violators
subject to revocatio nof their li
cense to do business.
Much of the 16-page order listed
services exempted from price
control. These include professional
services, those of doctors, dentist?
lawyers, architects, authors or en
tertainers, and personal services
such as those of barber and beauty
shops and bath and masseur estab
lishments.
Services to commercial or indus
trial users, which are covered by
the universal price ceiling, also are
excluded. Also exempt are serv
ices of an employe to an employer
and of common carriers and public
utilities; the charges of news
papers, magazines, broadcasting
stations, theaters, insurance under,
writers and outdoor advertising op
erators.
A complete list cf te services
covered, Henderson said, would
"fill pages of type." Some of the
major ones are automobile
storage, repair and parking; clean
ing, dyeing, pressing and mending
clothes; hat cleaning and blocking;
shoe repair and shining; film de
veloping and printing; repair of
clocks, watches, hosiery, tires,
radios and most other articles;
storage of furniture; floor waxing
and sanding; upholstery and fur
niture repair.
Although the order is aimed
“primarily at retail prices, it also
covers services "integrated w ith
further servicing” sold to the per
son with whom the consumer fi
nally deals. This covers such op
erations as wholesale dry cleaning
performed for tailor shops, or elec
trical repairs done by a big shop
for small retail stores.
In laying down individual price
ceilings for each establishment,
the OPA will consider each unit
of a chain as an “individual seller”
Prices fnay vary from shop to
shop regardless of common owner
ship.
The seasonal price provision uses
the 12-months ended Feb. 28, 1942,
as its base date, instead of the
calendar year 1941. To prices pre
vailing in that period the seller
adds the specified “cost-of-living”
percentages.
The seasonal price section would
work in this manner:
A garage at a summer resort
might customarily have charged 75
cents for a grease job through the
winter but have raised the price
to $1.50 for the peak of the season,
from July to Labor day.
If those prices were charged last
year, the peak season price in
1942 would be $1.50 plus the cost
of-living percentage, shown by the
table to be 7.6. The dealer there
fore may add 11 cents to $1.50,
bringing his peak - season charge
this year to $1.61.

NEW ARMY BILL
(Continued From P»*e One)
hold dear was at stake,” said Rep.
Mahon (D.-Tex.).
There were questions from the
House floor as to what the United
States was doing to safeguard the
rich territory of Alaska, to protect
the coast, how its guns and tanks
were standing up against the ene
my on the far-flung battlefronts of
the world.
While many of the questions
went unanswered directly, mem
bers of the appropriations sub-com
mittee on war expenditures,
against the background of secret
testimony from military chiefs, as
sured the House of their faith in
the Army’s command and on the
excellence of American - made
equipment.
Rep. Starnes (D.-Ala.), a com
mittee member, declared that
American tanks used in the Libyan
campaign were not of the latest
type and were not fully armed.
“Compared with the latest models,
they are virtually obsolete,” he
said.
Rep. Rich (R.-Pa.), one of Con
gress’ most out-spoken, pre - war
non . interventionists, drew hisses
and boos from some of his col
leagues when, in protesting against
inclusion of $12,700,000,000 for lend
lease aid in the bill, he declared
that Japan’s attack on Pearl Har
bor had resulted from “demands”
made by the United States.
Striding to the House well Rep.
Bulwinkle (D. - N. C.l denounced
Rich’s pre - war record, declared
that the Pennsylvanian had “for
gotten himself” in making the
statement, and demanded to know
why he didn’t show his “manhood”
and vote against declaration of war
if he believe that statement.
Rich and Bulwinkle, meeting lat
er in front of the speaker’s rostrum
smiled and shook hands. The Penn
sylvanian voted for the big meas
ure.
From both the democratic and
republican sides of the aisle came
hearty endorsements of the stag
gering sum, which would increase
to $205,311,233,542, the total which
Congress has approved for defense
and war in the past three years.
“The only safe thing for the na
tion,” declared Rep. Snyder (D.
Pa.), chairman of the appropria
tions subcommittee on military ex
penditures, "is to assume that this
war is going to last five years at
least — and then hope, pray and
work to cut that period.”
“I would rather see the national
debt go to some ethereal figure
and live in a democracy, then to
see the national debt go down to
zero and live under Hitler,” cried
Rep. Powers (R.-N. J.), the sub
committee’s ran king minority
member.
Their statements followed a dec
laration before the committee by
Lieutenant General J. T. McNarp
ey, deputy chief of staff, that “the
war department regards our pres
sent situation as the most critical
which this country has ever en
countered.’’
The g i g a ntic appropriation
bundled up new billions to produce
planes, tanks and shells, millions
more for develoing processes of
chemical warfare and secret weap
ons still on the designing board,
and huge supply funds for the ex
panding army.
Earmarked in the measure was
$12,700,000,000 for construction of
war material which would be avail
able for transfer to the United Na
tions, increasing to $62,944,630,000
the total of lend-lease aid thus far
authorized by Congress.
One of the largest allotments in
the bill was $11,316,898,910 for pur
chase of 23550 planes. Military
chiefs told the committee that this
would complete the Army’s share
of President Roosevelt’s plane
building program, which calls for
175,000 craft this year and next.
In its report, the committe paid
tribute to the production genius of
American industry, and to the -wil
lingness of its leaders to re-nego
tiate government c o n t racts in
which excessive profits have ap
peared.
It added that “voluntary” re
funds and re-negotiations indicated
“•at this stage” potential savings
of approximately $$1,137,000,000.
The report declared that “syn
chronization” had been achieved in
production of munitions, cargo ves
sels and naval escort vessels, and
found that “the matter of raw ma
terials may be said to be quite
satisfactory.”
However, it described the prob
lem of obtaining rubber as “rather
disturbing,” and called upon the
American people “to desist immed
iately from using their cars for
any other than most essential pur
poses.”
