S. Johnson, Raleigh OPA district di rector, that they could now buy them without a purchase certifi cate. ‘‘Following iti3 previously- an nounced policy of removing con trols on articles at the earliest possible moment, OPA has taken farm implement arid ' industrial type tires off the ration list,” Mr. Johnson said. y Truck and passenger tires re main under rationing, :he pointed out. “Ample supplies of tractor tires are on hand to meet the require tnenta, and so there is no longer * any need to keep them under ra tioning,” Johnson declared. “In making this announcement, f want to take occasion to thank the farmers of Wayne and Duplin j counties for their eplendhl spirit of cooperation during the period ' when these tires wore scarce. By taking care of their individual tires and having them' checked regularly, they have contributed materially to our national rubber conservation program,” Johnson said.

Representative Kilday fD-Tex), a committee member, said he would ask the group to support legislation preventing further in duction of 18 and 19 year odds and at the same time to make a quick and thorough study of the neces sity of drafting anyone else. <• - Previously Representative Shaf fer (R-Mien), said he favored a similar course of action. Both noted that Congress had lowered the draft age to 18 in 1942 after army and navy offici als had asserted it was essential to the war effort that a steady flow of youthful conibat troops be provided. ^With the end of the fighting," Kilday said, “that neeld no longer exists.” The Texan said he believed the draft should be 'halted immediahe ly for teen agers because men of more mature years are most suit able for occupation troops. Fur ther, he said, 18 and 19-year-olds now should be permitted to com plete their education. Committee sentiment is strong for putting an abrupt end to the draft for everyone without per mitting the draft law to run its course to next May 15. Sonne of the members, however, have sug gested a compromise which would halt inductions of fathers of any age, and require the armed forces to discharge any man over 35 who requests release. 'While not directly connected with inductions, the question of terminating the service of mei} *J ready inducted also will ifeceVvd the committee’s attention. The. se lective service law, provides that tndJKtees shall ..serve until ~ six 'months after the end of the War. Technically, the war won’t end un til, the president, by proclama tion of Congress, by resolution, says it has ended. The army, meanwhile, said It would continue to ask for 50,000 new inductions a month, regard less of how peacefully the occupa tion of Japan proceeds. TAR HEELS CUED FOR HARD BATTLE Local Boy In Group Given Citation With the 100th Division of the Seventh army, in Germany.— Award of a presidential citation, highest honor an army unit can receive, to the third battalion, 397th infantry region of the 100th division,'has recently been an nounced by 'Seventh army head quarters. The ctiation honors the valiant action of the third battalion in holding off repeated vicious Ger man attacks on the Bitchie sector near Rimling, France, from Jan uary 1 to 5, during the huge Na zi winter counteroffensive on the Seventh army front, intended to retake the vital Saverne pass. The citation reads in part: ‘The third battalion occupied a defen sive position on the left flank of the lOOtfh division. Suddenly, at midnight, on New Year’s Eve, the enemy, the Jffth SS Panzer gren adier division, launched a heavy and fanatical attack . . . The unit on the left of the third battalion was driven back during the course of the day some 5,000 yards . . . For five day* the battalion, in this exposed position, was subjected to repeated' attacks from the front, flank and rear, by enemy tanks and infantry, accompanied by the mortar and artillery fire,. . ..The third battalion, nearly surround ed, still held on despite heavy loss es, and a disadvantageous tacti cal .situation, which warranted withdrawal. However, in so doing it inflicted such heavy losses upon the enemy and impressed upon him so successfully the will of our troops to hold on that further offensive action on this part of the front by the enemy was discon tinued.” ■ North Carolinians who are members of the- third battalion, j and contributed to the winning of the presidential citation in cludes Sgt.

GOVERNOR CHERRY PAYS TRIBUTE TO OPA VOLUNTEERS Asks Workers To Remain On Job Until Home Battle Won Volunteer workers connected with local war price and rationing boards who have remained on the job during' the war period, were praiised by Governor Cherry this week in a (prepared statement in which he emphasized the contin ued importance of the fight against inflation. Governor Oherry urgeti these pahhiqtic citizens to "see the joJb through to the finish,” adding that the end of fighting in the Pacific does np.t eliminate the need for continued vigilance on the' home front,-,,; The governor's statement in full saidi_ , “Since. December 1941, when the governor of North Carolina first Bef'ttp tire rationing boards in every county, thousands of pa triotic (persons have given their time and services in administer ing our -wartime rationing and : price control programs. Many of them have been on the joh for more than three years, and all of them are doing their jobs without thought of compensation and with no fanfare, some at a personal sacrifice. “The work these people have done, and are doing, is a direct contribution to the welfare of our state and nation. With the end of the gfihting in the Pacific and the coming of peace, all of the condi tions that make price, rent con trol and rationing necessary, will not be immediately done awtoy with. “Many persons through thought lessness will want to see the con trols thrown wide open arid the pressures for inflation—that have been built up in other parte of the world—hit our state. This means that the job the volunteer workers, and others in ORA have to do is not yet finished. The end of the war means that the job has been finished on foreign soil, but ihete remains work to be done here unless all the good that has been accomplished thus far is lost. The way in which the job is completed will determine (he di rect results. ' f" “As Governor of the State of Nor^v Carolina, I, R. Gregg Cher ry, do ask that these patriotic citizens, and others who might cure to contribute to the cause in the future, continue to lend all that is in their power to complete the fight against inflation and un fair distribution until such a time that such "controls are unnecess ary.” ' ! “Our board chairtnen, clerics, And Volunteer workers have done a good* job. Let’s see the job through to the finish.” tm BOYETTE MCU IS ZONE CHAIRMAN / James A.

Renew Yomt Subacriptio* to !The Tribune NATION'S CLOCKS HAY BE SET BACK Act Of Congress Is Necessary There were signs on Capitol Hill in Washington this week that Congress may be asked to act very promptly upon reconvening to re peal “war time” and turn the na tion's clocks back one hour to pre war standard time. Under present statute, written early in the nation's defense ef fort, war time would run for six months after termination of the war. ‘Rep. Howell (R-Ill), member of the house interstats commerce committee, said he would call for immediate committee action on one of several pending repealer bills as soon as Congress recon venes September 5. “Under the war time,’’ he said, “children prast go to school in the dark, and farmers must do their early morning chores by lantern light. Now that the war is over, the need for war time has passed, and we should return to standard time immediately.” President Truman cannot turn the clocks back by proclamation. An act of Congress is necessary. CHAPLAIN TO SPEAK Chaplain Howard M. Reinard, base chaplain at Seymour-John son field, Goldsboro, will occupy the pulpit of the first Baptist church 'Sunday night at 8 o'clock in the absence of the pastor, the Rev.

POST-WAR FLYING IN YOUR HOME TOWN n ai g~* l RfDDFT f Mmmhar, Aviation Wrttara .By C« C. CAMFdLLLj iiioctortom Washington. D. C « On the Air Map America has become air con*' sclous. Under the impetus of war, aviation has advanced further than it might In several decades In nor mal times. Realizing this, town of ficials and civic minded citizens everywhere wonder just how and where their communities will fit in the postwar air picture. ^ First necessary step, it is general ly understood, is to provide faclll A typical section of an air map re cently published by the department ef resources and development of a mid western state. ties so that planes eta land and take-off, be maintained and re paired. But airports are known to be costly to build and operate. Me dium-sized and small communities feel that such'installations are be yond their reach. 12 the term “airport” is used In Its usual significance as a terminus tor commercial airlines this may well be true. It Is because “airport” : +■ 'T' .1 ’ ' r * • • ■ is too general a term and does not allow for distinctions as to size and type of landing facility, that it has now become necessary to provide other designations. Thus the Personal Aircraft Coun cil of the Aircraft Industries Asso ciation of America has suggested that facilities suitable for small com munities, or for neighborhood land ing areas in large cities be called airparks. Intermediate landing places between cities, probably spaced at intervals where distances are great, are to be termed Bight stops. Towns or communities that have adjacent bays, rivers or lakes upon which aerial watercraft or am phibian planes could land, may be interested in establishing air harbors. Showing that towns may easily be linked to world airways and pointing out that ‘the airplane has come to Main Street," the Council has pre pared qn illustrated booklet entitled “Put Your Town on the Air Map," for free distribution to community officials and planning groups. It why the community which has no provisions to accom modate personal aircraft will be passed by In the air age. Whereas rails, roads and docks have built successful communities in the past, landing facilities for private planes as well as for feeder or area type tran^ort planes will pace the gropp of communities in the future. in the plana and diagrams Includ ed it is emphasised that no commu nity is too small for an airpark or similar landing facility; that the size and cost can be regulated according to the needs of the community or its potentialities; and that airparks eventually may pay their way, both directly and Indirectly.

Especially is this true when rains are excessive, and much damage results to lower bolls due to rot and blue stain from the* green leaves. This condition results in a low grade of cotton at the gin, and the consequent loss in money ia enormous in wet years such as this season has been. Until recent yeans, farmers were more or less helpless to rem edy these situations. Many have attempted to solve the problem by topping the cotton stalk, but this was only partially successful. This year, however, a quick and highly successful method of com plete defoliation of the plant is nos' available -to farmers, as ad vertised in the display and classi fied sections of The Tribune to day. An application of 30 pounds of Aero Defoliant (which is eyan amid in dust form) will knock off all the leaves on the plant within 3 to 6 days. me Deneius irom wus treat ment are self-evident. With the leaves removed, the sunlight can quickly open the bolls, and all of the crop can usually be picked at one time—and best of all, pick ed early before there is much weather damage and before the weather gets cold. JBelow are listed some of the benefits that farmers who have defoliated their cotton say they have been getting: 1. Avoids losses resulting from boll rot. 2. Earlier picking,, helping to improve the grade. 3. The crop ean usually be sav ed at one picking. / 4. Cotton pickers can more ea»-- ' ily be attracted to work in Acids that are leaf-free. 5. It permits pickens to start •work earlier in the morning, thus allowing them to make more mon ey per day. 6. Hastens maturity of late crops; 7. Avoids loss caused by late fall rains. 8. Assists in boll weevil control. When leaven are removed, the late brood of boll weevils perish for lack of food. 9. It permits earlier (prepara tion arid seeding of the ground to fall crops, such as winter peas, vetch, rye, barley and wheat. 10. The cyanamid dust, used to defoliate, is worth all it costs for the nitrogen (20 1-2 per cent) which it leaves on the land. Pvt.
