N. McNAIR SMITH. USO Reodm Nany To Soldiers Wilmer McDonald, promiiwnt Rae- ford banker and Hoke Chairman of the 1942 War Fund Campaign of United Service Organizations, said to day that analysis of the work per formed by USO during the last year, and its present report of operations, shows there “can be no question that USO had gone far beyond its initial pledges of service to members of the armed forces of the nation.” “The manifold new and greater demands made upon USO by the tre mendous incr^e in the number of men m service,” Mr. Mc Donald went on, “makes it absolutely essential that the goal set for_ the 1942 War ampaign Fund—$700 for Hoke—be reached, and surpassed, if possible.” Cooperating with United Service Organizations, twenty-seven large American cities, mustering a total of more than 5,000 volunteer workers, have already established lounges in their railway stations and bus term inals for the tropps-in-transit. Week by week the list is growingJ USO officials report that they, have! aproached 108 different communities with the station-lounge-plan and are striving to set up these havens in every important stop-over city of the United States. Randall J. LeBoeuf, Jr., chairman of USO’s Transit Service Committee, said that although the*lounge plan is still young, it already has served thousands of service men during train, or bus waits in strange cities. They help immeasurably,” he said, “to fortify the spirit of our fighting men.” ' According to Mr. LeBoeuf, one of the most valuable elements in the tropps-in-transit service is the oppor- tui^ity it offers the American com munity to set up an ifitimate, contin uous arid personalj relationship with the men of army camp ^d naval sta tion. Most of the lounges, the USO of ficial added, are “as cosy as homes and as cheerful as fraternities in the rushing season.” Many, he point ed out, have pianos, arm chairs, floor lamps, radio-phonographs—even pot ted plants. The work of the trained personnel and volunteers, Mr. LeBoeuf said, is full of “those little human inci dents which show how deeply the civ ilian has entered the life of the sol dier and sailor to make their prob lems his own. “In a train crowded with service men a soldier was travelling toward his hometown a few days ago. Years before he had, upon leaving the place, lost contact with his widowed mother. The train was to stop there only ten minutes. The soldier went to his commanding officer. ‘I’d give any thing to see my mother,’ he said. “The officer promptly wired the USO lounge in the railway station of the soldier’s hometown. It had the mother waiting at the station when the son arrived. After so many years of separation, there was a touching scene. The officer later reported that he had never before seen such a sudden change in a soldier’s behavior. Now he was cheerful. Before he had been moody and listless all through the trip. USO had helped change his whole attitude. Now he was a better fighting man Mr. LeBoeuf said that officers commanding train contingents fre quently wire to. learn if there are USO lounges ahead. They often let their troops detrain if the answer is yes. These centers provide resting and writing facilities and their libraries average 200 books. Several offer free cookies and other light refreshments, the contributions of the town’s house wives. All units aim to offer individual service whenever possible.

Sixth, it establishes a price level higher than normal to which farmers adjust their level of living and outlook,on life, which cannot be maintained. Inflation means higher prices which make it hard for low inconie farm families to buy what they need. And finally, it makes doUars qheaper.

Farm People Affected Vitally By Inflation Farm people who study President Roosevelt’s seven-point program to control the cost of living will recog nize in it an attempt to prevent the disastrous results which followed the upward spiralling of prices during the first World . War, says Dean I. O. Schaub, director of the State College Extension Service, “Every person who farmed from 1918 through the early 1920 will want to avoid infla tion pf prices, land values, and other things that led to mortgages which scores of farmers have never been able to lift,” the agricultural leader declared. Dean Schaub said that President Roosevelt’s program is designed to, not only control the cost of living, but to; (1) Prevent a few from get ting rich at the expense of many; (2) make it possible for the poor and rich to share alike in the products available; (3) help prevent a serious depression after the war, such as paralyzed America following World War I; (4) maintain, insofar as pos sible, desirable social and economic conditions for our soldiers and sail ors t9 return to after winning the fight for America’s freedom; and (5) cause much of the war debt to be paid as we go. The Extension director listed eight reasons why farmers dread inflation. First, he said, inflation creates a feeling of prosperity which is not sound. It tends to get farmers 4nto debt for' such things as land and machinery, which they cannot pay* for quickly. Third, inflation gets farmers into the habit of living above their in come. Inflation increases taxes and public debt. It reduces tendencies to LEGAL: NOTICES ADMINISTRATOR’S NOTICE Having this day qualified as ad ministrator of the estate of B. B.
