This condition is ex- ' vreesly stipulated in the pledge. It will be left to the signers to decide whether or not they are uble to continue their purchases. Purpose of the campaign is to enable the government to take a nation-wide inventory, so that tax plans may be laid according ly to pay for the cost of the war. The more dollars voluntarily pledged for the purchase of bonds the less will be the tax load. The money invested in these war savings securities — the saf est investment in the world will be taken out of competition for consumer goods, thereby pre venting Inflation and building up a cushion of savings for the in dividual when the war ends. These securities also make every citizen buying them a share holder in the future of America. Following up Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau’s recent an nouncement that North Caroli na’s quota of war bonds and •tamps for May had been set at $5,888,500, State Administrator Charles H. Robertson and State CTbairman Juliau Price ot Greens boro. said in a joint statement that “we are confident North Car olinians can be counted upon to exceed the quota set for our State.” “North Carolina's overage tnonthly purchases of these war navings securities in the seven- month period ending; in January wac 84,207,031'', they said, “and We Have the New HANES UNDERWEAR for Spring PAYNE Clothing Company would take any action necessary to prevent the use of French ter ritory by Axis forces, and guar anteed a continuation of the de livery of arms to China, regard- lees of Japanese suceesses in Burma. Un?cs Self Denial For Victory Bluntly, he informed the civil ian population of the United States that its every member would feel the effect of his new ly announced program for stabil izing the cost of living, an ’ call ed upon it for self-denial and sacrifice, in the interest of vic tory. "Never in the memory of man,” he said, “has there been a war in which the courage, the endur ance and the loyalty of civilians piayed so vital a part.’’ .Assails the “Faint of Heart” And he vigorously attacked all who might bo “impeding” the war effort; The “faint of heart": those “who put their own selfish interests first’*: those who pervert honest criticism into falsification of fact”; the "self-styled experts . . . who know neither true figures nor geography”: a few “bogus patriots’’ who, invoking freedom of the press, “echo the senti ments” of Axis propagandists: and "above all,” the “handful of noisy traitors ... would-be dicta tors'’ who ‘‘in their heerts and souls” would yield to Hitlerism. Mr. Roosevelt began his ad dress with a brief resume of war developments since Pearl Har bor, which reached its first cli max 'with a recital of recent events in France. “We are now concerned,” he said, “lest those who have re cently come to power may seek to force the boive French people to submission to Nazi despotism.

The actions, taken together, represented an **eBsential segment of President Roosevelt’s over-all plan for stabilizing the cost of living, and preventing an infla tionary price rise. Along with these orders, go proposed heavy taxation of prof its. stabilization of most wages at present levels, taxation to hold Individual incomes to a maximum of $25,000, rationing, encourage ment Of -war bond buying, debt payment and savings, and discour agement of credit or installment plan buying and expenditures for nonessentials. Exempted Itenw Exempted from the price rul ing, however, -was a list of food Items representing, OPA officials said. 25 to 50 per cent of the food usually purchased. Some of these were exempted for seasonal reasons. For exam ple the price of fresh vegetables was at its seasonal peak in March and since, it normally declines af ter that month, it was thought unwise to establish March prices for such commodlies. Eggs and poultry, milk and milk products, were exempted, it was said, because they are un der considerable competitive pressure which tends to keep their prices from shooting sky ward. , ^ But most of the food exemp tions were the result of the price control law, which says that max imum prices for farm products may not be fixed at a point be low 110 per cent of parity (a formula tor determining the agri cultural price level at which a farm product has the same pur chasing power it had in 1909- 19141. , , J-aw (Jiange Deiiiandml Mr. Roosevelt hos demanded that Congress change the law to permit maximum prices at parity and the OPA’s announcement said it was “planned to set maxi mum prices for certain agricul- ‘ural products as soon as such action is consistent with present, or future legislation.” OP.*V officials were quick to point out that while the order established no ceilings for raw farm products, it did establish ^ maximum^ for those products at or after the first processing which they receive, Hy choosing March as the base month.

Approach Kursk Laboring through deep mud at the junction of the central and southern fronts, strong Soviet forces were reported closing in on Kursk, 120 miles north of Kharkov and 290 south-southwest of Mos cow, after a series of bloody bat tles through outlying villages. The Rusisans were said to have reached the Usossna River above Kursk and were preparing to cross the Seim River south of the town. Kursk is on the confluence of the rivers, and its capture would im peril the northern end of the axis line through the Ukraine.

Voluntary Co-oi>eration Henderson made it plain that he was relying largely on volun tary cooperation to enforce the order. Under the regulation, all retailers will be licensed. They must post prominently in their stores their maximum March price list for selected "cosi-of- living” commodities and they • must preserve all existing rec ords of sales made in March. The result will be that the prices for the same or similar commodities will vary from store to store, in accordance with var- iatioos in individurl march max- Imums. The retailers may sell at any point below the maximum, and competition over a period is expected to iron out any severe discrepancies. Since by far the great majority of retailers will readily comply, it is thought, too, that competi tion will prove the gre”’ enforce ment weapon.
