THURSDAY, MAT Paxe II, THE WAYNESYILLE MOUNTAINEER .i & ( Tiis W6ec In Defense Secretary of State, Hull, speak-1 ing in Washington, Mid "evidence has been piling: op for several years which makes it perfectly plain that one group of powers actually does have designs both upon the new world and upon the principles the possessions, and the way of life that are oars." Secretary Hull said "were the control of the seas by the resist ing: nations lost, the Atlantic would no longer be an obstacle rather, it would become a broad highway for a conqoerer moving westward." Navy Secretary Knox, speaking: in New York, said "what we aU see is an America gradually be coming encircled by hostile mili- said the partols are not convoys. AID TO DEMOCRACIES The Navy released to Great Britain, under the Lease-Lend pro gram, 20 small, fast torpedo boats and announced discussions are un der way regarding- a program for the construction of additional small craft for Britain in Canadian ship yards. President Roosevelt and Prime Minister King of Canada Jointly announced a program to co-ordinate Canadian and American de fense production. Each country will provide the other with equip- f ment it is best able to produce. The President told his press con ference the war could not be decided A. 1 1.I..J 4 tate to say is aimed . . . at us alone. . . Mr, Knox said if Ger many should establish herself in Africa where submarines, ships, and bombers "could substantially cut ns from all commerce from South America," the Monroe Doc trine would be "a scrap of paper." Mr. Knox also said "we must fight ultimately unless we find, in the Balkans, or even the Eastern 1 Mediterranean. He expressed eon- fidence that Britain could hold out I with American aid and counseled the public against moving from high hopes to deep despair be cause of day by day reports. AGRICULTURE Secretary of Agriculture Wick- ard said in a radio speech that Knudsen Visits Shipyards j ) I , and put into effect, measures that the stake or rarmers in tnis wona will enable Britain to d0 our fight- conflict is as great or greater than ing." He said Germany would tna "t any ther Kroop. . . :. .... If be defeated if U. S. war supplies the Nazis win, we might as well reach England; "we shall be ki our export market for farm Iwafpn" if thev do not. Secretary products goodbye. . . . , . I tmnx of State Hull also said aid to Britain "must reach it destination. ... Ways must be found to do this." Asked to comment on the speech es of Mr. Hull and Mr. Knox, President Roosevelt told his press conference they reflected his. opin ion. The President also said that the neutrality patrols, established after the outbreak of war to ward against aggressors' ships that might come near the Western Hem. isphere, are being extended as the war comes closer. He said they will be extended to the seven seas if necessary to protect the West ern Hemisphere. Mr. Roosevelt it's time the farmers and the peo ple of this country got excited about this world situation. . . . . Nowadays ostrich nations don't last very long.'' Mr. Wickard said as far as export crops are concerned, the principal problem is still one of surpluses, "but so far as pork, dairy products, poultry, eggs, to matoes, and some other foods are concerned' this is not true. After the war, he said, a large part of the world Will be looking to the U. S. for food "whether we can give it to them may decide how much weight the U. S. will have i William S. Knudsen, director of the Office of Production Management, shields his face from the glare as he watches welders at work in the Fore River Shipyards in Quiney, Mass. VV'ng a whirlwind tour of the defense, slant, be urged all r-- n production. at the peace councils." Price and Civilian Supply Admin istrator Henderson said that, since steel prices have been frozen, it would not be necessary for manu facturers to increase the prices of farm machinery. PRODUCTION PROGRESS The Army received delivery on the first tank produced at the new Chrysler plant at Detroit, a build ing a quarter of a mile long con structed in 70 working1 days. The Charleston (Indiana) Ord nance Works, world's largest pow der plant able to supply the needs of any army of more than one million was opened one month s wr ENDS. MAY lO&i-, J. C.

Yates Bailey, FSA supervisor for Haywood county, i Mr. Bailey said today that appli cations for loans from government funds set up for the fiscal year ending June 30 should be submit : ted at the earliest opportunity. He I pointed out that no loan can be made unless there is time for the farmer and himself to work out the seasonal farm and home man agement plan which must accom pany each credit advance. . j "Every spring we have to turn away eligible farmers because they apply to late for the neces sary plan to be drawn up," Mr. j Bailey said. "Farm Security Administration has found that real security for the government's in vestment as well as all lasting ben efits for the farmer, Comes from business like and planned-out op eration of a farm, not from the cash advanced to meet temporary needs." ' FSA extends limited credit for the purchase of tools, seeds, feed, fertilizer, livestock, and other sup plies and equipment needed for successful operation of a family type farm Loans are also made to neighborhood groups of farmers who can purchase and use heavy machinery or purebred sires co operatively. Farmers in Haywood county should apply in person at the office in the court house. Office hours are 8:30 a. m. to 4:30 p. m. here. ahead of schedule. Commerce Secretary Jones, speaking in New York, said the progress of the nation's defense effort to "better than good . . . but . . . .,no matter how fast defense production climbs, it will not be fast enough to meet the need. . . . William Batt, of the Defense Pro duction office, also speaking in New York, called on industry "to do much more than it has . . . . without looking to see whether the other fellow is doing his . . . , . (share)." DEFENSE FINANCING The Treasury Department an nounced unsolicited donations of from 10 cents to $150 have come from individuals throughout the country from "scrubwomen in Brooklyn, cowpunchers in Texas, aging janitors, youngsters from 10 to 12 years .... anxious . . to keep America safe. The Treas ury program to sell defense sav ing bonds begins May 1 when bonds and defense stamps are placed on sale in 16,000 post offices, banks. and savings institutions throughout the couhtry. SELECTIVE SERVICE Selective Service headquarters amended its regulations to provide that volunteers can apply only through their local board and will be classified in the same manner as Selective registrants. Selective Service headquarters also amended regulations so that no registrant will be inducted while an appeal is pending or during the period when an appeal may be made. AIR RAID PROTECTION The War Department requested civilians wishing to . enroll as volunteer observers in the air warning service to apply to the nearest branch of their State De fense Council and not to air corps stations. Between 600,000 and 600,000 volunteers are to be en rolled before August. Hazelwood Lunch Room Makes Only "A" In County A check up on the Hazelwood school room, by the lunch room committee, reveals that a total of 36,364 lunches were served during the past school year. Of this nam ber 11.981 were free and for under nourished children. 2,615 lunches were served to students in ex change for commodities and 21,763 were paid lunches. The Haxelwood students were served a good wholesome lunch at five cents ner Plate. A stand ard menu such as Mrs. Eufua Siler and Mrs. A. P. Ledbetter planned for the school at this low price was made possible through the school garden, the use of govern ment commodities and the large number of lunches sold daily. All profit made off of the lunch room had to be turned back into it in the form of free lunches, equipment or cost of school gar den. . In addition to the free lunches provided equipment for the kitch en and dining room nas seen bought at a cost of $175, and there is enough money on nana to n nance the school garden for this season. Mrs. A. P. Ledbetter, lunch room chairman, has worked faithfully on this project for the past two years, without compensation. Mrs. Led better and her committee reports the purchase of much needed equip ment such as a pressure cooker, 200 soup bowls; a stock pan, cur tains, curtain rods, paint and other expensive articles too numerous to mention. The Hazelwood school lunch room has the distinction of being the only grade "A" school lunch in the county. '" Contrary to popular belief the proceeds from . the Pet Products were not used to help finance the lunch room but were applied on the building up of the school library.
