which in each community consists
of a coordinating committee of
prominent citizens, representing
various organizations and groups,
and of sub-committees for various
community purposes connected
with the war effort, will bring
about this organization.
A major purpose of the Citizens
Service Corps is to coordinate war
efforts rather than to create new i
' agencies. To this end, participa-.
tion of all government, civic, pa-:
triotic, welfare, professional, and
other existing organizations is im
portant. . Among these which
should take part in the program
are federal, state, county, and
municipal departments, including
OPA and its rationing boards,
WPB and its salvage boards, war
savings staff, etc.; churches;
chambers of commerce; Rotary,
Kiwanis. Civitan, Lions, Exchange
and other civic clubs; American;
Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars.
Disabled American Veterans and j
„ Spanish War veterans; Red Cross,
p _T a., Federation of Women s
clubs. Business and Professional
Women’s ' club. Junior League,
• Community Chest, Grange, Farm
Bureau; labor, trade, and profes
’ sional organizations; and mayors,
chairmen of boards, judges, edi
tors. publishers, and radio station
managers; college presidents and
faculty members: county and city
school' heads and teachers; Farm
• and Home Demonstration agents.
All during the war each com
munity will have to meet the fol
lowing and many other problems:
(1) Financial campaigns (a)
those connected directly with war
relief like the Red Cross, the USO,
China Relief, Army and Navy Re
lief, etc., (b) the sale of war sav
ing bonds and stamps, and tc) the
Community Chest.
.(2) Emergency War Needs (a)
the salvage campaigns, (b) the
rationing of tires, sugar, etc., (c)
price control, (d) consumer edu
cation', (e) venereal control, (f)
emergency housing and <g) the
. education of the physically unfit
and the illiterate who are rejected
' in the draft;
. (3) Service ta) to those in our
armed forces and (b) to their de
pendents;
(4) Welfare activities and reg
ular community service, even
though they may have to be cur
tailed or adapted to war condi
tions, will have to go on.
(5) Information (a) about the
progress of the war, (b) about
our war efforts and tc) about the
program of our war agencies must
be made available to our citizens;
16) War attitudes must be de
veloped (a) to maintain morale,
(b) to keep down destructive crit
icism and (c) to promote self
sacrifice and unselfish cooperation.
A chart of a suggested set-up
for the Service Corps has been
approved by the Defense Council,
and is not to be considered as
final in form or restricted as to
agencies to be included. The ex
ecutive committee will have as one
of its duties the inclusion of agen
cies engaged in war work and the
coordination of the work as part
of the Service Corps. The tenta
tive executive committee consists
of the chairmen of the committees
which have been functioning under
the defense council and such ad
ditions as the Atlanta headquarters
think necessary and material.
It is suggested that the Service
Corps begin with a executive com
mittee formed of the chairmen of
the following committees Trans
portation, Nutrition, Recreation,
Consumers, Service Hen, Public
Health, Health, Child Care, Hous
ing Education, War Savings, Agri
culture, City Government, County
Government, Library, Food Con
servation, Information, Welfare,
and Block Plan.
The executive committee so
formed should consider as one of
its first problems an increase of
membership so as to give repre
sentation to additional committees
or organizations engaged in war

«<f*A MESSAGE FROM ADMIRAL KING TO HIS
One of the first things a Navy recruit learns
is the principle of conservation. He learns to fold
his clothing a certain way to protect it and increase
its usefulness. He learns to care for and maintain
the equipment that is issued to him. Throughout his
naval career he is impressed with the fact that
conservation is the watchword of the service.
I cannot urge you too strongly, officers and j
men alike, to carry this principle into your private
lives by investing a portion of your earnings in !
War Savings Bonds.
They provide an excellent means of saving, of
conserving a portion of current income for future
needs, and at the same time they furnish an added ^
opportunity to contribute even further to the winning
of the war.
COUNSELS SAVING: The above message from Admiral Ernest J. King,
Commander-in-Chief, U. S. Fleet, advising the men of the Navy to
“invest a portion of your earnings in War Savings Bonds,” empha
sizes the importance of War Bonds as investments for the future. In
less than a year and one-half, Navy personnel has purchased over
$70,000,000 worth of bonds. Other Americans, looking for a way to
save as well as to serve, can well follow the example set by these men
who are risking their lives for their country!

work. In- this connection consider- \
ation should be given to the civic
clubs. Chamber of Commerce, Jun
ior Chamber of Commerce, etc.
It is suggested that out of the
Executive committee there be
formed an Executive council, of
sufficient and workable size, that
may assist the director and the
assistant directors, in making ef
fective the plans and suggestions
of the Executive committee.
In addition to the Executive com
mittee there should be committees
of volunteers, who should be train
ed and available to assist the prin
cipal committees in carrying on
their war work and to supply man
power whenever necessary. A
question for the ExecutiiVe com
mittee will be whether to place
certain organizations on the Exec
utive committee or in the several
groups of volunteers. l
Any one may join who is will
ing to spare time to volun
teer war work. Many volunteers
will be eligible to membership be
cause of their services in estab
lished agencies engaged in activ
ities important to the war effort.
It is the policy of the Citizens
Service Corps to encourage to the
fullest extent the work of estab
lished agencies. In no event should
the Citizens Service Corps inter
fere with the programs of estab
lished agencies and committees—
assistance and rot direction is the
policy. For existing volunteer
■ groups working with such agen
• cies, membership in the Citizens
Service Corps is a recognition of
1 the services which they are al
i ready rendering.
Volunteers should register with
; the office of the local Defense
1 Council. The secretary of the lo
• cal Defense Council will, if de
! sired, act as secretary of the Citi
' zens Service Corps.
1 Attention is called to the dif
• ference between volunteers for de
’ fense work and such persons as
: may take advantage of the serv
; ices of tne Citizens Service Corps
for the purpose of education with
’ out rendering any service what
1 ever, such as women who attend
nutrition classes and persons who
| attend the lectures and classes on
I i health. Such persons as attend
[ these classes should be enrolled
as volunteers for such services as
they may render and when so en
rolled will be eligible.
The Defense Council will require
that all volunteers be qualified in
one of the following three ways:
(1) By completing a prescribed
training course in preparation for
, volunteer work assignment.
(2) By completing 50 hours of
work for which no specific train
ing course is required) in a vol
unteer position to which such per
son is assigned for service in the
■ Citizens Service Corps.
(3) By membership and service
upon a committee having a rep
lesentativc upon the Executive
committee and which committee
is doing volunteer war work.
Those now members of such
committees or organizations as
have been doing war work may
be certified by the chairmen of
the committees as qualified, but
this rule shall not apply to new
volunteers, the purpose of it being
to reward those who have already
worked before the formation of
the Citizens Service Corps, and
not to set up a volunteer corps
without any training whatsoever.
Most of the committees are fa
miliar with the work, and the work
heretofore done should be contin
ued, with the additional burden of
serving upon the Executive com
mittee for the purpose of coordi
nation of all effort sto the best in

HINTS ON SLICING
BREAD ARE GIVEN
No Special Knife Needed,
Just Few Common
Sense Uses
CHARLOTTE. Jan. 28.—Discon
tinuance of bakery - sliced bread 1
has created a big demand in North
Carolina for fancy blade knives
commonly known as “bread
knives”, but actually no special
knife is needed to slice modern
loaves, the Carolina War Produc
tion Board office pointed out today.
The so-called bread knife is, in
fact, an anachronism, it was ex
plained. It dates back to the Gay
Nineties when bread was baked
at home, taken hot from the oven
and eaten while still warm. To
meet this special requirement, a
knife with wavy or serrated edge
was designed to slice warm bread
more efficiently than the smooth
edged blade.
But with home-baked bread now
a rarity, the need for a fsmcy
blade has virtually disappeared. A
thin blade with a smooth, well
sharpened edge will work satis
factorily for slicing bread which
is no longer warm.
A check yesterday of hardware
stores in Charlotte disclosed that
dealers had sold out of the old
fashioned fancy-edged bread
knives but had on hand an ample
supply of other knives, perfectly
practical for bread-cutting.
The WPB, in recommending the
use of ordinary slicing knives for
bread, added that proper care will
make them last indefinitely.
Among recommended hints for
proper care are:
Keep them orderly in compart
ments in drawers or on respective
hooks or clamps on the wall. Apply
a little scouring powder on the
blades each time they’re washed
to avoid serious staining. Use a
sharpening steel similar to the
butcher’s but smaller, of course.
