The United States has already or ganized a joint Army-Navy Staff College; designed to train leaders in the strategy and tactics of land, sea and air fighting. The advantage of having such officers is apparent in connection with all amphibious opera tions. Generally speaking, the organiza tion of the American Army, with its General Staff system, is far superior to that of the Navy with its inde pendent bureaus. While it may not be advisable, in the midst of the pres ent war, to merge the Army and the Navy, it seems desirable to reorgan ize the Navy Command in order to avoid the delay, inefficiency and diffi- , culties inevitably connected with the Save Good Peanuts Fw Planting Seed Gfttrt Vrun'a .n- " w k I Present organization it&Sa co itheverybody else and, ..eftamM by fitter and ''i'f9- r" eleCtIonS MussollnLlt might have been sup-i vMch.determ.ne polices. , pressed if , the United States and, ThW matter comes to mind in con- Great Britain had permitted the .lion with the radio broadcast from Spanish .Republican ' Government to I iV-Italy, which quotes Count buy munitions. .

Food Fights For Freedom Campaign Growers who have peanuts suitable for planting purposes should by all means save a supply of seed for 1944, says Dr. E. R. Collins, in charge of Extension agronomy at N. C. State College. For those growers who do not have good peanuts for planting, the Com- Imodity Credit Corporation is setting I aside through the crushers and the Growers Peanut Cooperative a suffi ! cient amount of peanuts of all three types for planting purposes. It has been announced that peanuts which have been determined to be ! good for planting purposes will he sold to dealers by the Commodity j Credit Corporation for sale to farmers I for planting purposes.

The order (Food Distribution Order 71) has kind words of sympathy and services offered by our many friends and neighbors at the death of our moth er, Mrs. Dessie Chappell.

But this year we believe those honored dead would rather join with us, the living, in paying honor to the men of another generation who have taken up the weapons that fell from their lifeless hands. This year we in this community are asked to observe Armistice Day not with words but with deeds. This year we have a special re sponsibility. This Armistice Day marks the beginning of a new drive to make up the shortage in pulp wood. Everyone who can possibly do so is asked to cut an extra cord in honor of some friend or relative in the service. There are two good reasons for putting the drive on this basis. First, it takes nearly a ton of pulpwood to supply each man in the service with the many things he needs. Second, the present pulpwood shortage, 24 million cords, is just about equal to the num ber of service men who come from the pulp-wood-producing areas. So if every one of us in this and other pulp-wood-cutting communities cutsn extra cord for bur service man, the emergency will be met. No fighting man will lack any of the thousand-and-one war essentials that are made from pulpwood. . No boy shall die because we fatted, 4 X 5 1
