PAGE TWO Head Not To Be Chosen Soon Delay Expected In Naming; . Person Man For Post. I County Commissioners will meet; again Monday morning In regular first of July session at ten o’clock at Person Court house, but because of the heavy schedule of budget business it is not regarded as like ly that the Commissioners will ar rive at a decision in the naming of a Veteran’s Administration assist ant here, although $2,700 was ap propriated by the Commissioners at their last meeting to pay for the salary of a Veteran’s Administration director. The director, it is expected, will, be chosen from the ranks of return ing Person veterans of World War 11, and according to one spokesman for Lester Blackwell Post, the Amer ican Legion, should be a man with proper personnel training. Such a director will be expected to work-in cooperation with the State Veter an’s administration, a commission for which met this week in Raleigh. The State Commission has al ready chosen a chairman and an nounced objectives and it is thought that a State Director of Veteran's Affairs will be named shortly. Now on a State committee for region four of the Civil Service commission are two North Carolinians, Dr. Prank T. deVyver, Duke University, end George M. Ivey, of Charlotte. Report from Raleigh concerning the neiyly formed State Veteran's commission reads as follows: Burgin Pennell, of Asheville, new ly cliosen chairman of the state vet erans commission, announced today that the commission will select a director at an early date and that state offices will be established in Raleigh shortly after July 1. Pennell said the number of dis trict veterans service officers will be gradually increased. In addition to the state and dis trict veterans commission, Pennell said, the commission through its director and other personnel will go into the counties, and in co-opera tion with oity and county officials, veterans organizations, civic clubs Chambers of commerce, merchants’; associations, American Red cross, organized labor and all public agen cies rendering service to veterans, will appoint a local veterans com mittee. This committee, he said, will vary in size according to the require ments of the local situation and will be kept small enough to function as ; an executive body. i It will be the duty of the local Comission, he added, to co-ordinate services of all public and private agencies in the community render ing service to veterans and their families. Subcommittees will be ap pointed as follows: Employment, ed ucation, pensions. compensations, GI laws, insurance, psychiatric ser vice, business advice and counsel, pesonnel and family problems and publicity. In a statement issued here today the commission listed its four prin cipal functions as follows: To collect dJV I and information qs to facilities and services avail able to veterans, their families and dependants and to co-operate with WM We sell Eye Glasses to.

Edwin Parker Back From Europe New York, June 24.—Gen. Jacob L. Devers. commander of the Sixth Army Corps, returned from Europe today and declared the situation in Germany becoming so orderly that "we are thinkirig of taking arms away from a majority of those in the Army of Occupation." "The Germans," he said,, “will obey when they know they have met their master, and they know we are their master now." The four-star General, who also is deputy Supreme Allied Com mander, Mediterranean Theatre of Operations, was one of 12 genera: officers who came home in four planes. Twenty-four field grade and junior officers and 26 enliste 1 men accompanied them. General Devers discussed the European situation at a press con ference, along with Gen. Joseph C McNarney, commander of Ameri can forces in the Mediterranean Theatre; Lt. Gen. William H. Simp son, commander of the Ninth Army; Maj. Gen. EdW'in P. Parker, Jr., . commander of the 76th Infantry and Col. Creighton W. Abrams, of tank force fame. General Devers, McNarney and Simpson agreed that: 1. Hitler is dead. 2. Non-fraternization orders in Germany must be relaxed. 3. Germany has been so utterly defeated that there is no chance of, her starting a war for a long time. General Devers said "Our only job" now in Germany was to see that the people “do not get out of I step." | "They are easy to handle,’’ he ; said, “They are in the habit of tak ! ing orders. They look to their su periors for orders and at the mo ment we are their superiors." “They are easy to handle," he said. “They are in the habit of tak ing orders. They look to their su- • periors for orders and at the mo ment we are their superiors." Carolina Curers May Go To Help Canadian Growers OTTAWA.—Arthur MacNamara, director of Selective Service, said tonight word has been received from Brig.-Gen. William C. Rose, vice chairman of the War Manpower Commission at Wilmington, that the commission will give every assist i ance in securing workers to aid in J curing the Southwestern Ontario i tobacco crop. j For some years experienced, work ! ers have not been available in Can ada to work on the tobacco harvest, \ and this situation has been accentu ated by the war. Due to labor short ages in the United States, it is diffi cult to obtain workers from the to bacco growing states. ; However, with the assistance of tht War Manpower Commission of ficers of the employment service are more optimistic of being able to meet the needs of tobacco growers in Ontario. News from CAMP 1 BUTNER CAMP BUTNER. June 28.—Just as its counterpart, the U. S. Armv ! General Hospital has installed a j system of Occupational Therapy for the patients who are slowly regain ing mental and physical strength I through a program of shop and craft work, the Camp Butner Con valescent Hospital is utilizing a sim ilar plan to speed the convalescent patient on the way to substantial recovery. Occupational Therapy, or .simply "OT" as it is called in the convales cent hospital, is a term now applied ito that form of treatment consist ling, of various forms of activity mental or physical—that relieve the patient either permanently or temp orarily of his injury. Under careful supervision and guidance, the battle I vet works with clay, metal, leather. ■ plastics, and other materials that I not only result in the making of | useful articles, but aid in mending | broken bones and healing injuries. One recently returned battle vet explains the whole "OT" program in these words. "I heard about the opening of the OT Building from | one of my buddies, but .1 had no. in terest in woodworking or the rest of the crafts offered. One day. more out of curiosity than anything else. I went down to Bth and D Streets to see just what was going oh.down there. I guess you could have knock ed me over with a feather when 7 saw about 40 or 50 men engaged in crafts and activities that a few weeks before would have been im possible for them to accomplish. And another thing that amazed me. was that the fellows were making useful articles: one of my buddies was making a table and chair for his little girl and another was com pleting a copper serving tray. Down at the other corner of the room. I saw several from my old outfit mak ing, plastic picture frames, wallets, ash trays, bracelets, and bookenda Since then I have gone down to the OT Shop for a few hours each day. Not only am. I doing something con structive. but I'm regaining some of the strength I lost in mv arms.” Open each day from 10 a. m. to 5 p, m. to the convalescents, the Coming Attra* lions At P/ALALE cIIMI DOLLY >SADHS©N i Palace—Special 11:30 “Owl Show” Sat.
