Raleigh.—The feed shortage in
this State caused the number of
eggs laid by an average flock of
North Carolina hens in April to
decrease seven per cent under
that the same month a year
ago, the statistics‘division of the
State Department of Agriculture
reported recently. Th^ ‘‘rate of
lay per month this spring is 1,-
668 per 100 hens”, said the report.
Egg production in the State,
due to a big increase in the num
ber of layers, was 134,000,000 in
April, 14 per cent more than last
April, 1942.
Total egg production during the
first four moatha of 1943 was es
timated at 408,000,000 eggs, or 20
per cent more than was produced
in similar period of 1942.
Tile Berlin radio said last night
that a purge of the Nazi party to
eliminate ‘‘lukewarm elements”
had become o topic of discussion
in Germany since a like measure
was executed some months ago in
Italy's Fascist party.
The Nazi broadaist, recorded
by The Associated Press, said the
removal of ail party members who
failed to set examples as fighters
was oiinonnced at Manheim by
Robert Wagner, Nazi party offi
cial for Baden and Alsace.
Wagner was quoted as saying
in a speech that ‘‘the party, and
with the party, every member,
■both men and women, are respon
sible for the country’s present and
future.

DON’T scrap any tire 'till we’ve looked at it—and the
reason why our Government has made it easier to get
your tires recapped without a ration certifeate, is so
that tires can be saved before they have worn past the
SAFE recapping point. You don’t need ration board
certification to have your tir-es recapped. And you
have only to drive around to us for expert advice as to
how your tires are wearing, and whether it’s time to
recap—to save rubber and get thousands of miles more
