PAGE TWO ALLIES SEEKING REDCOOPERATKW LN FUTURE EliROPf Reds Would Aid Mapping Plans ii Postwar World: Powers Now Work in Mediterranean. Slowly but surely the Umtei States, and Great Britain and Rus sia seem to be moving toward a; understanding on postwar affairs. International politics are alway among the great mysteries of thi world, and up to several month ago, the relations between the U. S and Britian and Russia were no ex ception. But through all of the diplomats jockeying, the maneuvering for ad vantages by both sides, the situatioi has begun to clear, and from all ap pearances, the thiee great Unitec Nations powers are now in agree merit on the principles for governing Europe after the war To emphasize the closer relation; existing between the U. S.. Great Britain and Russia, the foreign ministers 01 ine mret countries arc scheduled to get together in Moscow for conferences looking toward the future makeup of Europe. Secretary of the State Cordell Hul is to represent the U. S. at the Moscow meeting. Anthony Eden wil' head the British delegation and V Molotov will speak for Russia. According to reports. Hull will be accompanied by the new U. S. ambass ador to the soviet. W. Averell Harriman, banker and business man. The Moscow conference will g< down as a historical event, and it: decisions which must surely create a ne a- order in Europe, may weli have their effect on the U. S. and Britain. During recent months, the Russians have laid claim to the Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and parts of Poland. Rumania and Finland. Besides, they have re vealed intentions of establishing a military "protectorate" ovei Czecho-Slovakia and the Balkins. As a further complication, the Russians have openly declared tha they Wtli treat with a "free Ger many" that rids itself of Hitler anc the Nazi party. In this respect Russia woulci agree to the main tcnance of the German army, uncle Communist control. Since Russia's announced inten tions fly in the face of the Fou Freedoms, the U. S. and Britain an reported to have drawn an alternat prosposal. under which they wouli join in guaranteeing the peace o Europe and thus remove Russia pretended need for annexing certaii territories to guard against possibl future aggression. In this respect, the U. S. House o Representatives passed the Ful bright resolution, pledging the U. S to cooperate in the maintenance o future world peace by participatini in any international machinery de signed for that objective. Althoug) the senate tabled the Fulbrigh resolution, it was to have writtei one of its own, much along the sami lines. In the writing of any resolution Sen. Arthur Vandenburg (Mich.) ha insisted that the senate incorporat a clause stating that the U. S. main tain its independence in deciding 01 wheather or not it should partici pate in any particular measure de I SAVES >0% OR MORE MANY BUM SAY Burn Wood jkJL Am* Nora* vVWTnilvll PaUnUl llBfflW \ Ther???t*t C?? r*l B?

E Along with Great Britain, the U. S. has taken the lead in promoting ' a United Nations relief and restorat" ion program, based on linos of the ' old League of Nations. All of the 1 44 United Nations will have a voice) ? in the program, but actual operations | " will be carried on by an executive; 1 committee consisting of the U. S.,| 1 Great Britain and Russia. 1 According to an agreement sup-, 5 posedly reached between the gov-! eminent and congress, U. S. par-; ticipation would be solely confined; s to financial contributions. Under j e terms of the program, the U. S. and; - cooperating nations would have the a right to buy, convey and distribute - properly in orderly fashion in the - reconquered European countries. - Relief would be granted to needy peoples. In another program developed by the U. S. treasury, this country dollaj-s in a billion dollar world bank, whose function would be to guarantee private loans to governments, or make loans itself if private funds were not available. In all instances, the bank would only loan money if repayment of principal and interest were guaranteed by the government of the borrower. Countries would subscribe to the bank party in gold and partly in their own currency. In no case, would gold exceed 20 per cent of the prescription. Voting power would be related ^to a country's holdings. lOUat Ijou Bu4f. wait WAR BONDS * The biggest Held gun in the Army. That's the 240-mm. howitzer.

Western North Carolina farmers have found a new way to contribute to the war effort. James Ray Orr. assistant farm agent in forestry for the state extension service, reports that farmers in Jackson county have already cut and sold 131.879 board feet of black walnut logs for this purpose. This record production was made between May 29 and September 25, and Orr believes that it will reach the 200,000 mark before Christmas. Their harvest has given the farmers a return of $48,386, or an average of $67.37 per thousand board feel for the logs they have already delivered. The farmers cut the logs on their j own land and delivered them at a! central receiving point in Sylvai where they were measured and purchased every Friday by the WoodMosaic Company. The logs were then cut into flitches by the local mill and shipped to a plant that cuts out the gunstocks. Orr is helping the men in this work by visiting their farms, aiding them in selecting the trees of commerical size, and advising them as to how these logs should be cut to give the best quality of timber and the highest price. The Wood-Mosaic Company has a local office in Ashoville, and has established other walnut-purchasing yards at Hominy in Buncombe county. Gilkey in Rutherford county, Neho in McDowell county, Bryson City in Swain county, Lenoir in Caldwell County, and North Wilkesboro in Wilkes county.

H. Hostetler, in charge of animal industry research for the State College Experiment Station. A recent test showed that when nondescript cows were bred to a purebred bull, their calves averaged 53 pounds heavier at weaning time. In the feed lot, these calves required less feed per unit of gain and made cheaper gains than those calves produced from bulls and cows of inferior breeding. Furthermore, the carcasses of the cattle sired by the purebred bulls were fatter and contained a higher percentage of edible and tender meat. Hostetler suggests that the sow of poor conformation and those con sistently producing small litters be sent to market. The beef animal that is a "shy breeder" or below the average quality of the herd can be sent to the butcher. Good sires cost money and there is often a question in the mind of many cattle growers as to how much they are really worth. In the lest referred to above the purebred bull add"J * 1 1 cu auuui tell uumixa ultJif pci ncau to the value of the calves arid with a herd of 25 cows the annual return on the bull would be about $250 as compared with an inferior bull. "Military equipment, supplies and food must be packaged and shipped to our armies and allies. This makes timber and pulpwood just as important as food," says R. W. Graeber, State College Forester.
