But, the OWI points out, Lend Lease is doing a joy all over the world. The $7,496,000,000 in goods transferred and services rendered by the U. S. up to the end of last November strengthened the fronts from Russia to Australia. Africa, for example, has proved that Lend Lease and fighting the war are the same thing.

Under a sweeping decentraliza tion program, the National War Labor Board is establishing 12 regional War Labor Boards, with full authority to make final deci sions in labor disputes and in vol untary wake and salary adjust ment cases. Each of the regional boards will be set up on the NW LB tripartite system of public, em ployer and labor representatives. William Davis, chairman of the NWLB, said that under this plan wage stabilization will be done primarily in the field, with the NWLB in Washington sitting as a sort of supreme court selecting its own cases for decision by or ders for review. Only policy de fining cases will be brought to the national board. In October, 1941, the NWLB was given the task of stabilizing wages and salaries, of assuming jurisdiction over the wage and salary rates of roughly 31,000,000 employes of some 300,000 non-agricultural business enterprises, rang ing from restaurants to huge war factories. The board found that between January, 1941, and May, 1942, when the President announced his seven-point anti-inflation program, the cost of living had gone up 15 per cent. During that time, about two-thirds of all manufacturing wages had also risen at least 15 per cent. Therefore, in ruling on wage increases, the board felt that those wages had already risen high enough to cover the cost of licing increase should not be granted further general increases, but that all others were entitled to have their average straight-time rates brought up to a point 15 per cent above the January, 1941 level. si 'Ark .- 4 A wounded Jap laras that his tnemy can b nerclfuL After h noelTod first aid for hit Injuries, the Jap In Uw foreground rai givan a drink of water from a canteen by on of the Australian soldiora who took part ia Um WMMMful aaaault on Gona. in Now Guinea.

THE WAR FRONT Japanese pockets of insistence in the Sanananda area of Papuan, New Guinea, all that is left of the Japanese Papuan army of 15,000 shock troops are rapidly dissolv ing before American and Austral ian troops. The American position on Guadalcanal has improved much in the past week, since the capture by U. S. troops of Mount Auston, last Japanese position dominating Henderson Field, and the United Nations position in the Pacific war is now more favorable than at any time since the Marines first land ed on Guadalcanal in August, 1942.

No. 1260 Dec. 10-17-24-31-Jan. 7-14. Incidentally although for several months the Marines have been op erating jointly with army troops in the Solomons area, most of the Marines have now been replaced by army personnel. This week Maj. Gen. Alexander M. Patch, U. S. army, took command of American forces on Guadalcanal, relieving Maj. Gen. Alexander A. Vander grift, U. S. Marines Corps. During the five-day period of January 13 to 17, inclusive, our forces killed over 1,000 Japanese in various actions on Guadalcanal. Even in the air, Japanese strength in the Solomons is growing steadily weaker. Maj. Gen. Millard Har mon, commander of Allied air and ground troops in New Zealand, pointing to the enemy's dwindling supplies of all categories of com bat aircraft and lack of pilots said the Japanese are definitely short in meeting the requirements of their air forces. From North Africa the Middle Eastern Command, reporting the progress of the British eighth army toward and -into Tripoli, said American and British planes are keeping up their relentless attacks against Tripoli and against Castel Benito airdrome. The raids on Tripoli harbor have been aimed at facilities the Axis might try to use for evacuation. Air activity in Tunisia continues. mm EXECUTRIX NOTICE NORTH CAROLINA 1 HAYWOOD COUNTY.

Boyd, De- No. 1264 Dec. 31-Jan. 7-14-21- S1ZE OF AHMED FORCES According to Under Secretary of War I 'all erson, the size of th armed forces is a military problem that should he left to the military leaders to work out. Citing Pres ident Roosevelt's figure of 7Vi million in the army of 1944 and estimates of more than 2 million in the navy and coast guard, Mr. Patterson said 10 million men in no army navy is less tnan one out of every 13 of our population. Germany has one out of every 10 under arms, Britain has one out of every 10, and Russia's proportion is fully as high. "To say that we Americans cannot maintain one ir thirteen is ... a note of defeat ism ... we cannot leave the hard work of fighting to the British, the Russians and the Chinese. And a war like this one cannot be fought, certainly it cannot be won, 6? y fj7?T.

AGRICULTURE To help farmers increase produc tion in 1943, Agriculture Secretary Wickard has made available through the food production admin istration a new source of credit for the production of essential war time food and fibre. Between $200, 000,000 and $225,000,000 of addi tional funds will become imme diately available at the county level, and the loans (short time loans at five per cent interest), which will be made through the Regional Agricultural Credit Cor poration, will be limited only by the amount needed to do the pro duction job. COST OF FOOD Although admitting that the farmer's share of the consumer's food dollar is now larger than it has been in many years, Mr. Wick ard said the retail cost of food now represents the smallest share on record of the industrial work er's income. According to data available for the first 11 months of 1942, the retail cost of food for the average industrial worker's family amounted to 28 per cent of the worker's earnings, a record low in relation to income, while the farmer's share of the consum er's food dollar average 53 per cent, the largest share since 1920.

Mrs. Wiley Caldwell, known in the community as "Aunt Dollie', is much improved after being ill for sometime. FARM MANPOWER The war manpower commis sion's selective service bureau has liberalized the requirements for agricultural deferments, expected Mrs. Marvin Webb and chil dren, of Marion, are visiting the to keep many additional workers on the farms. The revised guide approved by the agriculture de partment, the WMC, the farm or ganizations and other groups provides that a local draft board may be justified in some cases in deferring an agricultural worker producing as little as eight war units of essential products. While emphasizing that the national ob jective is still a minimum per worker production of 16 or more war units, the new guide no long er considers 16 units a standard.
