hear. last year the brewers bought nearly two billion pounds of barley malt and nearly half a billion pounds of corn and corn product*. And plenty of riee and hops, too. That's a lot of farm products. Back around 11 and '34. when the tough old depression was hitting all of us pretty hard, farmers were certainly glad to sell those extra crops that beer bought from them. And come to think of it, when beer came hack it made lots of new Jobs for plenty of other people, too.

That moderation incidentally is another of the fine things about beer.

TODAY’S WAR MOVES (Reg. U. S. Patent Office) By Louis F. Keemie Os the United Press War Desk

As the battle lines shift back and forth In the Ukraine on the 14th day of the fighting In the Kharkov region, It is becoming apparent that the main German offensive toward the Caucasus oil field* did not start with the drive in the Kerch peninsula. In fact. Marshal Timoshenko may have succeeded in seriously delaying the general offensive. The Germans have overwhelmed the Kerch peninsula and are in a position to attempt an invasion of the Caucasus across the narrow strait. But to attempt to Invade the Caucasus from the Crimea only would be militarily unsound. The situation calls for a parallel drive from the north through Rostov to prevent the Russians from turning southward against the Kerch Ini voder*. When the Germans attacked In the Kerch peninsula on May A. Timoshenko evidently expected the northern drive so start at any time Consequently, as a diversion, he opened his Kharkov offensive four day* later. It Is Impossible yet to tell how completely he ha* succeeded In his alm because the action still Is undecided. However. It Is likely that Timoshenko has put a serious d- nt In Marshal Von Bock's striking pow-1 er. for a time, at least. He will have to organize considerable re-1 inforccments and perhaps draw men from other fighting fronts. His losses around Kharkov In tanks, guns and manpower undoubtedly have been extremely heavy. To that extent, Timoshenko has succeeded. Whether he actually takes Kharkov i* more or les* secondary. It wa* not certain from the start whether he hoped to recapture the city, or was trying to. It has been pointed out that the Russian generals consider the extent of their territory a valuable military asset and regard th.- extent of ground captured or lost as of less importance than the damage done to the enemy's striking power. The Russians can always retreat

in depth when necessary. Inflicting furtli r punishment on the enemy as th< y fall back. During the long winter campaign, the Russian territorial gains were very email compared to the previous German ones. But they held Leningrad and Mos cow. retook Rostov and took a heavy toll of German men and machines. Timoshenko's present position in the Kharkov region Is not dear from conflicting statements of both •ddes. ft seems probable that the heaviest fighting Is in the IzyumBarvenkova sector, where the Germans have massed all available reserves and hundreds of tanks for a main drive. Timoshenko’s main atta<k seems to be towards Krusnograd, northwest of Barvetikova. Between Krasnograd and Kharkov, another German push is In progri s. The object apjhrently is to encircle the IliiMlans around Krasnograd from north and south. The German claim that the bulk of three Russian armies have been pocketed and encircled may be taken with reserve. Timoshenko throughout has shown too much tactical skill not to fall back if NOTICE Notice is hereto.' given that Crurg,- H, lilrf.-rsu-iti has filed with the undersigned an I appll, atlon for the Adams Circuit Court <>f Ad him.
