THE GLEANER" nJlr - r r - rnnrJ- nrin r, n I GRAHAM, N. C.,APRIL 15,1943 IMCSD 1TKHT THURSDAY ] J. D.KERNODLE, Editor 11.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE Bute red at ?ht PodtofBoe at Graham. N. C.. a*- *jM>od-clam matter. The United States Treasury has borrowed money from the Federal Reserve Bank on special certificates of indebtedness and it seems things haven't been go ing so hot as expected in Mr. Mor. genthau's establishment The certificates outstanding on March 15 reached about 11,300, 000,000. The Treasury deals in billions that run so high that the average man cannot see the top. The thirteen billion dollar bond sale launched Tuesday to provide 1 funds for the fight for the pres ervation of liberty is being rap- 1 idly subscribed for. If America would preserve liberty, she must fight for it and pay for it?Many will die for it?many died to achieve it This is not the end of ' borrowing for the war; it will ' take many more billions to com- 1 plete the task. It is now costing 1 about six billions a month to ! carry on the war?that much for America alone. To win means much giving and much sacrifice 1 for all. 1 Some 2,500 Japanese-American soldiers from Hawaii and about the same number from the United States mainland have en listed for the war and are gather ing at Camp Shelby, Mass., for training for military service against the enemies of the United States. Perhaps there are some who will doubt their whole hearted loyalty. Like native Eu ropeans who came from coun tries now at war with the United 1 nations and have taken up armsi in defense of the United States, having learned that they fare' better in America than they did in their native land, these Japan- ' ese-Americans of Japan extrac- ' tion have learned they are far better off than they would be if they were in the land and under the government of their forbears. ( Farmers and labor groups are linked in warning from the Ad ? ministration that they ere push ing the Nation toward the brink of the cliff of inflation. The farm ers are defended against critics by Senators and Representatives from agricultural States who charge the Administration with sitting with folded hands while farm workers are being lured from the soil to industrial cen ters where the rewards include high wages, plus bonuses for work above 40 hours a week. The statesmen from agricul tural States are very critical be cause so many farm workers have been inducted into military serv ices. All the "facts and figures" show that farmers haven't had a fair break with other clases of workers and citizens in the spread of higher incomes. In fact these comparisons between farm workers and war workers don't sound like horse-sense. AMERICA THREATEN E1J A despatch from London says a broadcast, recorded there yes terday by the Associated Press, that Tokyo radio broadcast a speech by a Maj. Gen. Kenryo Sato, chief of the Bureau of mili tary Affairs, declaring that prep arations for a Japanese air of fensive against the American continent have been completed. In his speech, the general said "a vast air attack on the Ameri can mainland" was envisione i, with Japanese, German and Ital ian air forces stricking In collab oration. This may only be propaganda for the present, but it is not doubted that an attack would be forth coming were not the axis kept busy in trying to ward off the blows being delivered daily jj^^V by the allied forces 1 y land, sea and air. Japan's attack on Pearl Har bor, and her efforts to estlblish bases in the Aleutian islands, makes the threat sound real, if and when she could spare the forces to do it. THE WAR Nazi Marshal Rommel is in a trap in Northern Africa and the British, Yanks and Fighting French are dosing in on him. He may or may not be able to get out. If he gets away, he will leave the bulk of his army to be taken prisoners. On the Russian front the nazis continue to die at the hands of the Reds or taken prisoners. In the Southwest Pacific Gen. MacArthur's men do a daily job sinking Jap ships and shooting down Jap planes. On all fronts the Allies are carrying on offensive warfare. THOMAS JEFFERSON In the capital at Washington on Tuesday, the 200th anniver sary of the birth of Thomas Jef ferson, a great and beautiful marble' shrine was dedicated to the great champion of human liberty and one who took a lead ing part ? more than anyone else? in framing the foundations upon which this great nation of the United States is builded. t The shrine to the great cham pion of liberty was long overdue, but at last it came. President Roosevelt delivered the dedicatory address surround ed by a great multitude present for the occasion. THIRTEEN BILLIONS When you speak of billions, it is beyond mental conception; dripping down millions the mind is still puzzled. Divide the incom prehensible sum by the 130 mil lions of population in the United States and you have $100 for each and everyone of them, the old and young, the big and little, the rich and poor. That's the bond sale now on to kelp finance the war, and save America from the bloody beasts of destruction. I Speaking for the bond sale. Gen. George C. Marshall, chief of staff of the United States army, a soldier, who knows what \*ar is and why so much money says: "On many fronts, the Ameri can soldier is now doing his job, enduring privation, suffering hardships, fighting and dying He can do no more. "He is in constant need of planes and tanks, guns, ships, and a thousand other items of war material, all of which wear cut, are lost at sea or destroyed an the battlefield. "War is always wasteful and this war more so than ever be fore due to the bomber and the submarine. "All this costs money?Wast sums of money. We must not quibble over the amount. It is a price of the victory that America lemands. "We must do our part at home is the soldier does his overseas, uid we muot do it to the full as :he soldier does who lays down lis life. "Buy your -share of war oonds." \ \ Jnior Ridge New* Roney Hurdle lrft Friday -for Nashville, Tenn., where he is in he air corp service.

To her loving Mammy and Pappy she is known, on approximately al ternate days, as "Angel" and "You devil child". It was on her devil child days that Rosebud tied the knots in the shirts that Mammy had taken in for washing, and poured the whole of the vanilla bottle into the lamtf stew, just, she said later through bitter tears, to "flavor it up some". On her angel days Rosebud is equally imaginative even if a more restful occupant of the little shack down on Vinegar Hill. Once when Mammy was oui doing day work. Rosebud got a wave of cleaning fever and scoured every pot and pan in the kitchen so | that they literally [ glistened. Anoth er day, left alone, she tidied up Mammy's and Pappy's room to such ( a point of apple-pie order that it was a week before Pappy could find an undershirt. Rosebud is a great reader of the newspapers. Mammy and Pappy don't take one, but there are plenty of perfectly good newspapers blow ing round Vinegar Hill. It was out of one of them that Rosebud got her idea for spending the ten cents the Bunny had put under her pillow the night her tooth came out. After breakfast Rosebud disappeared down the Hill and reappeared soon after with a beautiful ten-cent War Stamp pasted firmly into a brand-new book with neat little squares for more stamps. She displayed her invest ment to Mammy. "I declare you're an angel child,' Mammy said. Rose bud went on sitting on the kitchen floor staring with large brown eyes at the empty squares in her book. From time to time she took hold of one or another of her teeth and wiggled it, gently. Mammy was engrossed in a par ticularly big washing. Rosebud was as quiet as a mouse and Mammy forgot about her until, coming in from the yard with her arms full of diy sheets, she encountered her child with a large hammer in her hand. Scenting the devil in her angel dhild. Mammy shouted at her, "Rosebud! Come yere with that hammer! What you planning on doing?" But what was done was done. In Rosebud's other hand was another tooth. Her mouth was stretched in a broad if slightly bloody smile. "I ain't doing nothing, Mammy," she said. "I'm just filling up my stamp book." (Story from an actual report in the files of the Treasury Depart ment.) ? ? ? Say yes. Take your change in War Stamps. Yonr investment in War Bonds today will save a payday for tomorrow. V. S.

C. ? A blunt challenge?whether Amer icans will be more tender with their money than with the lives of their sons ? confronts U. S. citizens as they prepare to j meet the appeal of the government to put an additional 13 billion j dollars into the fighHn the next three weeks. American aonars wnrcn run on to - some cozy shelter to hide while | i American boys are dying to defend > our cities and towns from destruc tion and invasion will face a rising demand from all classes of patriotic citizens to come out and fight. Millions of workers who now are buying War Bonds regularly out of current income must lend extra mpney to their government during the Second War Loan campaign (which started April 12). In recognition of the spirit of sac rifice which is sweeping over the land as our troops swing into of fensive action in Africa and await the signal for a landing in Europe, the Treasury Department is offering a series of government bonds to fit every pocketbook. No matter whether Americans buy the familiar Series E Bonds or 2 Vi , per cent bonds or 2 per cent bonds > or tax certificates, they will be doing 1 their part to make the Second War Loan drive a success. Consumer Spending Too High. Consumer spending in 1942 was * much too hi4h to meet the war situa tion of 1943. Last year more than 82 billion dcl'ors of our soaring na tional income went to feed the de sires of Amejicsns for clotics, rec reation, foods and luxuries. As these items grow scarcer, more of our in come must be diverted from such expenses into government bonds. During 1942 millions of our fathers, sons, relatives and friends were in training here and abroad. Some were already in action. Casualties were beginning to bite into every community. War Bonds became a vital link between the home and fighting fronts. Today sacrifice has become a way of life for America's fighting men. Civilian spending on the 1942 scale must go out the window if the home folks are to attempt to match the heroism of our boys at the front. Not every American can take his place in a bomber or in a foxhole or on a fighting ship but he can fire away at the enemy by lending money to the government. ? 1 Of I ALL WE ASK OF you , IS A LOAN ; mmmmm MTHEy GIVE [ ITHEIR UVtS ! ! " Schools Open Drive To Buy 10,000 Jeeps THE little jeep which is serving so nobly from Guadalcanal to Africa has become the symbol of the gigantic efforts of millions of American school children in their War Savings program. Thousands of public, private and parochial schools soon will be dis playing a certificate of honor from Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., signifying that they have paid for at least one jeep by buying $900 in War Stamps and Bonds. Countless others will be flying the Schools At War banner awarded to ] schools with 90 percent pupil par ticipation in War Savings. Ten thousand jeeps and a hun dred bombers! This is the new goal of America's schools as 30.000,000 children continue their Schools At War program under the auspices of the Treasury Department and the U. S. Office of Education. Results so far in the program re ported by Dr. Homer W. Anderson, Associate Field Director in charge Battle Flats of the Schools of the education section of the War Savings Staff, are: More than 7,000.000 elementary and high school students from 30,000 schools have prepared special Schools At War scrapbooks for state and local exhibits. War Stamp and War Bond pur chases may reach a grand total of $300,000,000 for the school year. Vagrancy, Idleness, Punishable By Law On the statute books of this state there is a stringent law against vagrants and tramps? Consolidated Statutes of 1919, section 4,459, defines them and prescribes the punishment The Inst legislature passed a resolution demanding that law enforcement officers enforce the law. Section one of the resolu is as follows: "Section 1. That all sheriffs, constables and the police and other peace officers of the state are hereby urged to strictly and , diligently enforce the provisions , of the North Carolina statute , against vagrants and tramps, which is found in Article thirty, , nine Chapter eighty-two of the j Consolidated Statutes of North . Carolina, and to the end that all able-bodied persons fit to work] who are by law designated as va grants or tramps, and who are not engaged in any aiinful oc "ura'ion, shall be comp-lled to either become employed or be subject to in i tment and prose u' ion unde ? aid laws." All sheriff constables, police officers, mayors, n"-' ?^ muting attorneys have copies of this res oultion and will enforce the law against offenders. Quick, swinging statements made to children are remembered far longer tvan grown-u^s real ize and may be responsible for ( some of the inferior complexes of later years.
