WAR DEPT.
CALLS FOR
SHOT GUNS
The Orange Supply Company at
105 Fifth street, in Orange, has
been designated by the Ordnance
Division of the war department to
receive second-hand shot guns
which tile government needs in
the war effort, it was announced
here today.
For Guard duty ..and for the
purpose of training military/per-
sonnel, the War department, is
urging that all individuals who
own 12 gauge guns in shooting
condition, sell them to the govern-
ment for this purpose. They may
secure new guns after the war.
Top prices for used guns are
$30.00 for double barrel - and
$42.50 for repeaters iniy} ..auto-
matics. If the gun owners will
authorize the Orange Supply com-
pany to agree on price for his
gun with the government, the
concern will see that the payment
is made promptly, it . Was stated.
If, however, individuals wish to
set a price on their nuns they
arc asked to please price them
reasonably, not exceeding the top
price listed.
Guns needed in this' call are 12
gauge guns, double barrels, pump
action repeaters, and automatics.
A complete price list is avail-
able at the Orange Supply Com-
pany and gun owners are urged
* to bring their guns in immediate-
ly-
"You can fight the Japs and
Nazis in more than one way. It is
impossible for manufacturers to
make new guns as fast as they
are needed, therefore it is up to
all of us to see to it that the train-
ing program of our Army and
Navy is not slowed down because
of the lack of equipment", ac-
cording to a statement issued by
the Browning Arms Company.
FSA Will Aid
Farmers With
Labor Shortages
Farmers urgently needing yoar-
rouhd workers for essential war
crop and livestock production
have been promised real assist-
ance from the Farm Security Ad-
ministration. W. L. Johnson, FSA
Supervisor in Jefferson and Or-
ange Counties, has announced that
FSA is throwing all its resources
into a nation - wide at*ack on the
farm labor shortage situation.
"FSA is now accepting orders
for workers from farm operators
who cannot obtain locally suffi-
cient labor to fill their needs,"
Johnson declared. Idle or un-
der - employed workers willing
to accept year - round farm jobs without .us.
especially are urged to file appli-
, cations with the FSA county of-
fice, 325 Federal Building, Beau-
mont.
Farmers obtaining these work-
ers will pay only a $10 fee to the
government. The expense for
transporting training and subsis-
tence of the workers until placed
on the job will be borne by FSA.
The worker's family also will be
transported to the place of the
new employment
RED CROSS
DRIVE
You and I have a bill of respon-
sibility. We have been reared in
a great,- free country. We hardly
know the meaning of fear or
want. Bui our way of life is
challenged, and we have sent our
armed forces to fight for us. It
is high time that each of us has
a rendezvous with his conscience,
Although our intentions may be
above reproach, wc must admit
that your efforts and mine to
build up morale at home and over-
seas often go astray or by them-
selves fail to accomplish all we
hope. There, ..we need, a strong
organization backed by- the re-
spect and financial support of all
the people to serve our men in
uniform. The Red Cross is such
an organization. It represents our
voluntary spirit to do in organ-
ized service what we as individ-
uals should like to do.
Most people know s;jipcthing of
the Red Cross. Many of. you roll
Red Cross bandages which bind
up wounds of our favorite sons.
Many through the Red Cross have
given their blood to pave- a life,
truly a gift from the heart to the
heart of another. Many of you
are probably giving Red Cross
service in this war in one way or
another.
You know that as a safety
measure it is not sufficient to de-
velop a gun which can pluck t>
bomber out of the sky four and
a half miles high or threw a half-
ton projectile ninety miles with
deadly accuracy. Therefore, the
civilian population must be train-
ed to take care of itself on the
home front. You know the roll
of the Motor Corps, the Cantpcn
Corps, and the other Red Cross
volunteer services, in which many
of you participate. In this respect
Red Cross First Aid Training can-
not be overrated. You know that
these civilian preparations for
emergencies and services to the
armed forces must ?xpand as
more and more men are sent over-
seas. We need nurses in every
ward of wounded men. The Red
Cross clubs in cities overseas
must have trained personnel. Wc
want Red Cross workers at every
outpost.
Not all of us can take our
places at the battle front in snow
and bitter cold and waist - deep
mud. Not all of us can watch
steel monsters crawl "c«fl to lick
their wounds. Not all of lis can
turn back the Zeros and Mcssr-
schmitts. Not all of us can do
these things. Not all of us are ex-
pected to. But wc can do some-
thing to keep faith with our broth-
ers who are . doing those things
and to alleviate their hardships
and suffering.
What the Red Cross worker
does, he does for us. He repre-
sents organized, two - fisted mer-
cy. He builds morale end bears
his hardships as a soldier. Arc
we with him? He canr.ot go on

"Horses and mules on 'the Or-

ation and cultivation of lands, is
a mattery of history now", de-
clared John Womack, a pioneer
stock man and rice farmer Sat-
urday. Womack said that ac-
cording to his observations, that
all rice farm lands had been pre-
pared in the use of tractors and
that the farmers were now await-
ing a favorable time for rice
planting. He observed too that
on the up land farms, lands
were being prepared end culti-
vated almost exclusively in the
use of motor "farm-all" equip-,
ment.
