~ UNKNOWN MARINE'S GRAVE ■“s. TRAF C SQUADS E IQY OUTINGS School Organizations Tak en On Annual Beach Picnic By Police More than 450 boys of the School Traffic Patrol were guests of the police department Thursday at a I holiday outing “with eats and alii the trimmings” at Carolina Beach as a reward for their “faithful and wonderful” record in assisting the police to direct traffic at the schools during the past year. The youthful traffic directors handled over 12,000 school chil dren a day in the city and county under the supervision of the regu lar police without a single, child being injured in an automobile ac cident during the times the school patrol was on the job. "These boys certainly deservo their outing as a result of wnat they've done. The police are proud of them,” Chief of Police Charles Casteen said. Superintendent of Schools H. M Roland was equally enthusiastic over the work of the patrol. "This is one thing I want to be quoted on,” he asserted. "I think these boys in the patrol have done a wonderful piece of work. They’re all elementary school boys, but they’ve had a lot of resDonsibility, and they’ve all lived up to it. I don’t think a better record could be found anywhere in the coun- , try.” . The superintendent aiso praised the work of the Traffic department of the Wilmington police in “ably supervising” the school traffic patrol.

(International) MERGER OF LABOR CAMPS IS TALKED F S A Transient Setups May Be Operated As Single Unit A contemplated merger of tne Castle Hayne and Wallace FSA transient labor camps in the next two weeks was disclosed Thurs day by Felix A. Scroggs, manager of U. S. Employment Service here, who predicted that if all works ac cording to schedule “no crops will be lost in this area this year on account of a labor shortage.” The labor camp at Wallace is now being dismantled, Scroggs said, and workers in the St. Hel ena section of Pender county wilt be transferred to the Castle Hayne camp. By agreement with camp committees of the two transient labor reservations, part of the Wallace tents will be sent to the New Hanover camp, and labor for both areas will be divided as prac tical. The employment official said Farm Security administration offi cials have promised 50 additional tents for Castle Hayne to quarter 200 additional harvest hands. With the new facilities, about 500 work ers can be quartered there. It is expected that the new tents will be set up this week so that a full force of laborers will De on hand to harvest beans, which are expected to reach the picking peak about June 15. Scroggs said it is expected tne Castle Kayne labor camp will be come one of the “best camps” in the state as far as cooperation be tween the different government agencies and growers is conce'.msd “Growers,” he said, "are be coming very dependent on the camp for labor and so far the em ployment service has been able to recruit sufficient labor.” To obtain workers the employ ment office established on Thurs day an interception station at the junction of Highway No. 17 and i the old road to the Market Street i ferry. It wpl! be manned at all times . by two representatives of the Farm Placement division of the employ ment office. Their duty will be to stop all truckloads of migrant la bor headed north and endeavor to place workers in this area. Approximately 150 migrant work ers are now located at Castle Hay ne, Scroggs said, and others of the force are from various areas of this state. They will proceed up the coast to harvest crops as they ma ture, and the North Carolina work ers will eventually return to harv est areas in this state. -V Aircraft cannon, appearing more and more frequently, particularly in fighter planes, are usually of the 20-mm. type but some of the fighters pack a 37-mm. in the pro peller shaft.

FDA Buying Sends Bean Prices Up At Tabor City RALEIGH, June S—{/Pi Farm Distribution Administra tion buying sent snapbean prices on the Tabor City mar ket up to the SI.50 per bushel price today after a tumble ear lier this week to tU-25, OYVI said here tonight. By the time the FDA had purchased two carloads, OWI said, buyers for the lastera market were offering prices equivalent to those paid by the government agency. Food purchased by the FDA ordinarily goes either to the armed forces or is bought for lend-lease, State FDA Chief C. Hillman Moody said. Today’s purchase served the double purpose of supplying the gov ernment needs and supporting the price, he added. -V Repair Permits Total $44,420 During May Building repairs and reconstruc tions totaled $44,420 in the city during May, Building Inspector Gilbert F. Morton announced Thursday. According to his report made to City Manager A. C. Nich ols, no new buildings were erected during the period. The largest sum for permits was furnished by the HOLC, which is converting two buildings at 108 Red Cross street and 109 S. Sixth street into apartments for war workers, at a cost of $15,000. Seven condemned buildings were removed by the city; three con demned buildings were repaired by their owners and 36 additional buildings were condemned during May. Over 150 buildings in the city have been demolished since last November, Mr. Morton stated. The Building Inspection office ordered extensive changes in the Brunswick hotel, providing corri dors leading directly to fire escap es so that occupants would not have to go through other rooms, according to Mr. Morton.

Dosher advised postoffice box owners Thursday to refrain from careless ly leaving keys in boxes and dis closed that a government official recently lost official mail in that manner. After the official complained that much of his mail was missing, postal authorities placed a watch man near the drawer, wno dis covered a 15-year-old Negro boy removing the mail two and one-half hours after he went on duty. The youth was arrested and properly investigated. It was found that the federal employee, who had asked that the lock on his box be changed, had formerly left his key in the draw er. Postmaster Dosher said this careless practice happens about 15 times daily. The careless clos ing of drawers, he said, is also a dangerous habit which may re sult in mail being stolen. “The postoffice can not provide protection to the mail if people foolishly leave their keys in the boxes,” he said. -V City Employe Stricken By Heat While Working W.

This entire industry stopped making whiskey months ago and has been working night and day producing nothing but war-alcohol.” “Nobody knows better than I, Judge what an important contribution to our war effort that really is.” “ Conference of Alcoholic Beeerate Industrie*
