T Southern Mills May Solve Critical Newsprint Famine ■ Washington. D. C. (Special)—The monopoly subcommittee ttf the House, of which Representative Joseph A. Bryson of South Carolina is the second-ranking member, will recom mend soon that newsprint mills be developed in the South to ViAln nv*rt a notentiallv-damrerous shortage of paper. Bryson said he whole-heartedly indorses this idea, and hopes such mills can be built in both the Car olinas. using pulp from pine trees which, he said, can be “derosined” through newly-discovered chem ical processes. Noting that some mills in the eastern part of the Car olinas already make Kraft paper and other paper products, the con gressman from Greenville said newsprint could also be produced at a profit, although the price is somewhat lower than the rates for kraft. "We have plenty of water, hy dro-electric power, labor, and trees,” he said- “We should de velop this new industry as another way of diversifying our products in the south.” Bryson observed that two south ■ cm mills are already making news print, one in Texas and the other in Alabama. But, he said, the na tion needs several more in order to reduce its dependence upon for eign sources.

DURE POWER COMPANY <5**'*V' ^ ftdmtmb (w/mi ” 4 $100 Left U. S. By Immigrant We Americana who grow up in freedom sometimes fail to realise how important it is. With Stanislaw Zakrzewski, a Polish emigrant who became a barber on Long Island, New York, it was different. He had lived in a country where freedom was re stricted, and he could appreciate liberty when he had a chance. So when Mr. Zakrzewski died re cently, he left a will giving $100 to the United States of America. The will said the money was "a token of gratitude for the privilege of enjoying freedom and the oppor tunities offered by the United States of America.” Farms Using More Machines There are now more automobiles than horses on American farms, according to recent newspaper survey. However, the horsepower on farms—supplied by trucks, en gines, and tractors developed by industrial research—was found to be 178,000,000. Farmers, the survey showed, are using twice as much petroleum driven horsepower as all the na tion’s industrial plants. SMALL SEVENTH ARMY GUARDS AMERICANS (Continued From Page 1) they were not as discouraging as might be assumed. ' The 7th Army will fight and is ready day and night. Recent joint maneuvers left 7th Army men. like Eddy, convinced. The French gave a good account of themselves, likewise the British. France also has mobilization plan. But there are terrible handicaps. Air power is dangerously weak. The French are short on equip ment for their troop potential. Though no one knows where or whether a firm stand can be made, in case of attack, newsmen were inclined to think another year would put the Allies in po sition to set up a formidable de fensive line against the Russians. Two major prerequisites for that defense will be increased air strength and large-scale equip ping of the French army. Seventh Army officers quickly admit that hopes of defending western Eu rope successfully hinge on France, from which most of the troops are to come for that defense. As one officer put it—“we’ve got to put our chips on France, for she is the only country in western Europe with the men for the de fense of western Europe.” Moroccan and othr French, colo nial troops are rated very highly ty f*th Army officers, who see in them — and French continental t^gpops the manpower hope of tno Allies. But, right now the French troops arc neither equipped nor ready and thus the responsibility of defense falls primarily on the United States, and directly on the 7th Army.- This army is in con stant alert and high morale. Some of its men think it could blunt a Rjssian drive momen tarily, even today. Certainly, there is no pessimism or defeat ism among its ranks. As its armored units blasted away with roar after roar and co-ordinated unnits lent their support in field games recently, one got the im pression the 7th Army was con dent in its weapons and would give a good account of itaelf in battle, even though 1 greatly out numbered. And this spirit of the men in the 7th Army is inspiring to the Germans, as well as to the allied soldiers. The fact that the Americans are unafraid, confident in the 7fh Army, is one of the major stabilizing influences in western Germany. And as Gen eral Eddy’s 7th Army grows larger in the next six months, the chances of a successful Red conquest of all Europe wilt grow slimmer. 1 I BIBLE VERSE ANSWERS ! (Continued From Pare J) 1.

When Dr. John Milliton—a Bock Ropers far before he became a scientist — finished his space rocket, he took off on a trip to the moon. Arriving as the long lunar day was warming up, he landed in a thicket. Peering out, he saw Moon-folk parading in bathing suits. They looked like an American beach crowd. He put on his own bathing 1 trunks and joined them. Guide Hired At a Moon travel bureal, he hired an English-speaking guide, who took him around the city, and finally to a plain where hundreds of men were excavating. "You'll like this," said the guide, watching power shovels tear ground while bulldozers shoved it into conveyors, to be lifted out of the excavation. "What is it?” Doc asked. “These men lived in a gulley,” said the guide. “The Moon-govern ment has torn down their houses and will re-build them when the plain is level.” Hole Going Deeper “But they’re digging that holt deeper,” Doc protested. “You can’t fill a hole by digging it deeper!” “I don’t understand it myself,1 bat I thought an Earthman could explain/’ the guide sighed. “Our government sent experts to Earth to study your welfare plans. They found that when governments on Earth ’get in the hole/ they try to get out by digging deeper. On Earth, I understand, you call it ‘deficit financing.” “If you’d mind your own busi ness, it would sure be a heck of a r paper.”—Gazette, Holyrood, START a 1 A +-• O, < <: NOW THE COMMERCIAL NATIONAL BANK Charlotte, N C.
