THE NEWS-JOURNAL, RAEFORD, N. C. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1945 PAGE FOUR 4 4 - J h 1 'i- Cotton Producers And Processors Are Commended Cotton growers, ginners, oil mills nnd others responsible for the pro duction of cotton linters and smoke less powder have been officially commended by Lt. Gen. L. H. Camp bell, Jr., chief of Army Ordnance, for their cooperation in meeting war time powdtr needs. In a letter to a Hopewell, Va , powder plant, Gen. Caxpbell said: "The combined efforts of your cel lulose department and the farmers, ginners and oil mill workers of cot ton producing states, who have in creased production and improved the quality of cotton linters, have been of great help to the Ordnance De partment in meeting the nation's wartime powder needs. "Without such cooperation, America could not have produced the ammu nition needed to supply our armed forces and those of our allies," Gen. Ca rpbell said. More than 1,200,000 bales of linters were produced last year. Linters are especially important for smoke less powder because they can be quickly converted into powder for propelling every from a .30 caliber rifle bullet to a 16-inch naval shell. o Handle Big Crowd RALEIGH, Governor Cherry has announced that some special seating arrangement probably will be de vised to take care of an expected overflow crowd when President Tru man speaks here the night of Nov ember 2. The President will speak in Mem orial auditorium, scene of the spate's democratic conventions. The audi torium has a seating capacity of 3,500. Salvaging Of Fats Still Much Neeeded The fat situation is still acute, because it is unlikely that any ap preciable supply of oils will be re ceived from the areas surrendered bv the Japanese for some time to come, says Mrs. Estelle T. Smith of State collge, chairman of the N. C. Fat Salvage committee. Salvaged fats, so important in the war program, are today a No. 1 item In thp reconversion plan. Mrs. Smith I u. pes that there be no let-down in ! the drive for maximum used-fat col- lections. She asks that the more than forty thousand home demonstration club women and all of the boys and girls in the 4-H clubs throughout the state continue their activities in saving, collecting, and delivering used fats to concentration points in local areas. "Agricultural workers councils and groups of neighborhood leaders in rural areas, both men and women, ran be of great service to their coun try and rraterially help in speeding the reconversion program by con s;stent!y working for the collection of used fats." Mrs. Smith declares. "While there has been an increase in the quarterly quota of fats and kind of croiectile n? for ,he prodtlctTon of clvl,ian sui'i'iic;, ui sw.'i'. on oils continues to remain acute and the need for the salvaging of fats in the home is one of the most impor tant points in the reconversion plan."

Army postal officers at Headquar ters Fourth Service Command re- I minded the public that even thdugh hostilities have censed on all fronts, i there are still many thousands of American troops who will spend their Christmas in foreign lands and these troops will be looking fofward to packages from home. 'i The regulations governing the mailing of overseas Christmas gifts to Army personnel remain the same as last year .... they must be posted between September 15 and October 15 ... . one package a week may be sent (without a request) by any one person to the saire service man the usual restrictions as to size and weight of Christinas par cels applies .... not more than fif teen inches long or more than 36 inches in length and girth combined and maximum weight five pounds. Most stores have a stock of boxes approved by the War Department for overseas gift shipments. The Army asks that gifts be se lected which a soldier is unlikely to find in the particular area in which he is situated and to reme.nber that intoxicants, inflammable materials (such as matches and lighter fluids) and perishable matter are unaccept able for mailing. Families and friends of men sta tioned in the China-Burma theatre, India theatre, the Middle East, or on the Pacific Islands, are urged to a vail themselves of the early mailing date to insure receipt of Christmas presents by Christmas Day. It is sug gested that parcels routed to i'lese distant bases be mailed as nearly as possible to September 15 and no la ter date than October 15. Above all, don't forget the impor tance of the correct address: rank, name, serial number, branch of ser vice and organization, A.P.O. num ber and post office which will handle the mail. If the public follows in structions given by the army, it's a pretty sure bet ftiat the Christmas boxes will go through on time and reach the service men for whom it is designated. Local postmasters can furnish any clarifying details relative to over seas Christmas mailing. ihiinuu hair needed for beirds a"d wipr for the Frank ftoas Hai vyn LrRoy Technicolor produc tion "Tha Kobe," u practically solved by statuesque June Fraser when she eold the studio a 74 inch tr.md of hex hnir for $1,500. toes may be allowed to dry naturally or they may be cured for 10 to 14 days at temperatures of 80 to 85 degrees.
