Johnson of Hurvtsville, Ala., announced they would build an airfield for heavy bombers in 30 days. Feverish work started and within 24 days the roek studded terrain had been transformei into a compact earth airfield. Sud denly higher headquarters decided an asphalt surface would havi t'j be added. There were six days left. Barely had they started again when orders came to drop shovels and pick up rifles enemy paratroops hart land ed in the area. For 48 precious huurs hours these negroes guarded the im portant base, until the last enemy had been captured. Then, back to work.

Consult him about prices and service. I Disregarding the sad lesson learned after World War I, it looks as though ' this nation is going to repeat the i serious blunder at the conclusion of World War II. Washnigton is full of plans for lending money to many of our Allies and also to so ne of our present and previous enemies. ! These plans call for loans of bil lions of dollars to each country the whole world is being led to expect that Uncle Sam will play Santa Claus to everybody to the tune of , many of billions of dollars. This vast sum if added to our present national debt will add up to an ap palling total. I While making these so-caled loans !Will benefit our farmers, laborers, manufacturers and others, because , they will finmce a large export trade, the fact of the matter is that these loans can never be paid back except in the form of goods. If, and when the payments of these loans become due. the bor- srs I p -: !,v lilil3iM i i I? Aug PUT SOME MONEY IN YOUR SOIL BANK ACCOUNT last war, stilil lingers painfully.

NOTICE TOBACCO FARMER be repaid, as was exactly the case after World War I, and we will be left holding the bag again, with our national debt increased by approxi mately the amount of these foreign loans. Such advances of money to foreign nations may be necessary, but why not be realistic about it this time by calling them "GIFTS" for that is what they really will be. The Congress should fully realize this. and knowing it, wil be incline to scrutinize more carefully every pro posed advance to any foreign na tion. Further, the Congress should make it quite clear to the recipients that these advances are outright gift? coming from a generous nation to its Allies, or its former enemies, as the case may be. The American public, too must un derstand that any sums advanced to foreign nations will be outright gifts money over the dam, never to flow back to us again. The pub lic, recognizing this fact, will insist that Congress do its duty in re stricting these advances to the barest possible minimum. If this article sounds a bit hard- boiled, please know that I intend it to be just that way.
