Locker Plants Are
Advantage to U. S.
Defense
COLLEGE STATION, Oct. 14.
—Farm families living in areas
served by frozen food locker plants
can make increased use of them
both to their own and to the
vantage of the defense program,
according to C. E. Bowles, or-
ganization and cooperative mar-
keting specialist of the A. & M.
College Extension Service.
A survey shows that on Jan.
1 there were approximately 3,200
plants in the United States with
a capacity of 1,050,00 lockers
More than 75 percent are located
in towns of less than 5,000 popu-
lation and about 71 percent of
locker patrons are farmers. Based
upon a sample study there is an
average of 390 lockers in each
of the approximately 140 frozen
food lockers plants in Texas, said
Bowles.
Farmers using lockers are like-
ly to raise more of their own food
stuffs because foods processed in
the plants make possible great-
er variety in the diet and are
more palatable and nutritious
than foods preserved in the home
by other methods, Bowles said.
Use of lockers also reduces the
amount of canning necessary and
saves tin, zinc and other metals
vital to the defense program.
“Because most of the meat,
fruits and vegetables processed in
locker plants are grown region-
ally, transportation facilities, cen-
tral storage, refrigerator cars
and handling facilities and man-
power can be released for emer-
gency uses.”

Record Crowds Hail New Chevrolet
Detroit, Oct. 3.—Record crowds that thronged the General Motors

hailed as setting new high standards in the lowest-price field. Concurrently,
dealers the nation over unveiled the new Chevrolets, and early wires received

motorists in all sections of the country. As in past years, no 1942 Chevrolet

WASHINGTON, D. C.,-If given
$100' “all his own” one of every

William T. Reed, Chicago man-
ufacturer, informed the Treasury
tnat ten thousand children be-
tween the ages of eight and 13
were included in the poll conduct-
ed by his organization with the
cooperation of the Y.M.C.A. and
other groups sponsoring summer
camps. Children from families of
all income groups were included
in the poll.
Thirty-five per cent of the boys
and twenty-eight per cent of the
girls, representing thirty-three

$100 in Defense Bonds. Forty-
seven per cent said they would
put the money in the bank, one
