MOUNT OLIVE TRIBUNE baaed Each Tuesday and Friday Published at 112 S. E. Centre St. Mount Olive, N.C-._ HOMER BROCK_Publisher SUBSCRIPTION RATE: 8 Months-—-—— 75c • Months -81.50 1 Year _$2.50 Entered as second class mail matter April 21. 1904, at the Post Office at Mount Olivo. N. C. POLITICS Most of this hullabaloo by the Congress, that has been going on for several weeks, about the sol. diers voting, is just simply poli tics and that much time wasted. What the soldiers want is some thing done to help him win the war.—iNorlina Headlight. FEWER It seems to be quite the vogue, C* ^ TVtey'ro o/ffi. •fjvs •n. c?tar2bo$ Ration Wia/esome :&canafnicaJ FOR SALE BY Bon Ton Food Store these days, for everybody in Washington. who imagines lhim_ or herself to be of some import ance to hold daily—or at least weekly—press and radio confer ences. We have a sneaking notion that the nation would be served as well if these official safety vales, almost down to zero, were clamp, ed down good and tight. WHERE ARE WE DRIFTING We see where the Wayne draft boards sent a number of draftees to Fort Bragg last Sunday for pre. induction examination. Needless to say, we are not run. ning the draft machinery, nor the army; but we are fully persuaded that the present need for men for the army is not so acute that it is necessary to send pre-inductees to camps on 'Sunday. It is a distressful reflection that, especially since the begin ning of the war, our government has seemingly shown such woeful disregard for the iSabbath; so much so that countless individuals and civic organizations, taking their cue from Uncle Sam, now take Sunday for the doing of a good many things that could just as well, or better, toe done on some other day of the week. Heaven’s promised blessings are conditional. Can we, claiming to be a Christian nation, reason ably expect these blessings unless we comply with the prerequis ites? w ’ IMPORTANT Read This The date is March 2nd, the time is 11 a. m., the place, the community building, opposite the post office.

C Many Hardware Items Still in Stock — See U* for Your Hardware Supplies - TOWN and FARM, in WARTIME i Prepared by OFFICE OF WAR INFORMATION RATION TOKENS IN USE SUNDAY During the threejweek period, February 27 through March 20, in changing from the old rationing program to' the simplified token plan, two sets of stamps, green and blue, will be used for pro. cessed foods, and two, brown and red, for meats and fats. The old stamps brown and green, will be used exactly as in the past at their regular value through iMarch 20. The token plan will be fully in effect on March 21.

About 1,700,000 men in agriculture 'were deferred in class 2-C and class 3-C as of January 1, 1944. Of this total, 400.000 are single imen below 22 years of age and more than one million are non-fathers. 'In all other war production and war supporting activities less than 125.000 non- fathers below the age of 22 were deferred as of January 1. RUBBER FOOTWEAR PRICES UP An average increase of 6 1-2 per cent in retail in retail ceiling prices of waterproof rubber foot wear—rubbers, arctics, gaiters, and rubber boots—'has been allow ed by the Office of Price Adminis. tration to compensate for in creased costs. For these higher prices the public will get rubber footwear more nearly approach ing the quality of pre-Pearl Har bor footwear than that of the Victory Line product OPA said. ANNOUNCES MORE SUPPORT PRICES Support prices proposed by the War Food Administration for hay and pasture seeds in 1944 are in general higher than those of last year. Increases of 3 cents per pound were proposed for northern alfalfa, red clover, alsike clover, and biennial yellow sweetclover, and of 2 cents a pound for bien nial w*hite sweetclover and sudan grass. Western grasses would be increased as much as 60 per cent because of harvesting difficulties, and several grasses appear on the support program for the first times this year.

Education Is Censored In Occupied Countries “The whole function of all edu_ cation is to create a Nazi,” Bern, ihard Rust, !Reich Minister of Science, Educetion and Culture, wrote in 1938. In that one line he summarized the Nazi plan to malce Nazis of all Carmans and con quered peoples. “The Japanese plan is almost an exact copy of the Nasi one,” declared George Schommer, for mer chairman of the Inter-Allied Information Committee. In a foreword to a report by the com mittee on education in the occu pied countries, he wrote: “The peoples in the occupied countries (as well as in Germany) are not expected to think any more, unless their thought is entirely conven ient and useful to the Axis over lords. These people are no longer to be free men and women, but slaves.” In most of the nazi-occupied AUCTION SALE OF PERSONAL PROPERTY ; WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1ST L,- ' •*' At 10:00 O’clock (Thii Sab Wu Postponed Feb. 12) » WILL OFFER FOR SALE AT PUBLIC AUCTION j One pair good young mules, one 1 horse wagon, one automo bile, steel beam cotton and taming plows, one disc harrow, almost new, plow harness, shovels, hoes, pitch forks; hay | and earn; one lot carpenter toils; nmny other Hems too num erous to mention. ./„> ' * GAORGE ALBRITTON >' UAVIUm AJUDH111WY' vv.

In China, the Japanese have installed “advisors” to control Chinese ed ucational institutions and the Japanese educational institutions and the Japanese language has been substituted in all schools. Similarly, in Greece, all children must pass an examination in the Bulgarian language and are given new history and geography books extolling the concept of the “Great Bulgarian Empire.” 4-H’ers Help Produce More Milk; You Drank 246 Quarts Last Year You and every other civilian in America drank an average of 246 quarts of milk last year for a na tional total of roundly 36 1.2 bil lion quarts. This volume, which would fill a row of quart bottles 264 feet wide that would reach' from New York City to San FVan. cisco and' thence, to Los Angeles, is over 4 billion quarts more milk than the nation’s population drank during an average year in the 1935-1939 period.
