show much different results and that's what counts. O O — John Q. Public has the first quarter of his income taxes off his mind but the revenue collectors are swamped and employes of those offices are working overtime to catch up. It's a whale of a Job to take care of returns from some forty million people. O—O The increased cost of newsprint, ink, machine parts and every thing else necessary to publish la causing all papers to increaae prices of subscriptions. A number of them have suspended for the duration but most will continue to operate with the support of the public. —o—o In a few weeks the new acts, work of the 1943 Indiana legislature will be out and duly proclaimed a* law. It will take quite a while to familiarise ourselvre with the 321 new laws but if we overlook any of them, we will probably have it called to our attention when some wide-awake citizen files an affidavit. O—O 1 The passage by the United States Senate of a measure to ban farm workers from the draft may solve the shortage of workers to plant, cultivate and harvest the biggest crop ever produced in America. It etUl must go through the lower house but judging from the senate vote of 50 to 24. the law makers Intend to see that there Is sufficient food to keep us well fed. O—O This is no doubt a good time to plan your garden ou paper and get ready for the work, but planting, according to experts should be done lhe first two weeks of April. That's lhe time for lettuce, radishew, early cabbage, onions and spinach. A couple of weeks later we are told to plant beans, carrots and corn and then a little later tomatoes, lima beans, eggplant, parsnips and so on. O—O Germany is enlarging her submarine fleet, now has some suo in the Atlantic ocean. They are building more as rapidly as they can between bombings and they are preparing to send their naval fleet out to assist the subs in breaking up shipments to Russia. Allied forces are concent i ating on plans to meet this iu< teased menace. Let's hope they can do it thoroughly. The old gray bonnet is in style In England Rattoning there provides for one new hat in three years. It was expected the order would cause a revelation of some kind as it probably would have it Issued a few years ago but that nation ia all-out at war and the women smiled and dug up the old bonnet, cleaned it and put a bright ribbon on and went her way. Her beadgear is the least of her trouble these days. o—o Continued sacrifices for the duration of the war will be necessary md will increase father than llmintah. Beginning July let there will probably be a pay-as-you-go tax, the bond qiota for next month will be the largest yet required. rationing will contiMO and eventually will include about every thing. War is expensive but the more we do. the easier we make it or the men in service and the sooner the terrible j-ouffict will end. Let's comply with every request looking forward to the happy any when lhe troops will be marching triumphantly home. .■ O—O A Dollar Turned Into A Life: People give U* the Red Crass becau»e they believe in its work of mercy.

Harold Denny, correspondent of this newspaper, captured in Libya, described with what joy Allied prisoners in Italy welcome Red Cross food packages. Such tasks for the Red Cross, and thousands of others, are expanding with the war. Waller S. Gifford, who beads this year's drive, explains that the budget is not just a large, round sum picked out of the air but a carefully calculated figure based uu lhe most pressing needs. Some of the money must go to Red Cross local Chapters. The national organisation will require *Biiovo.o«<i. 65 percent of which will be deeded directly io services for the nation's armed forces. Evett this will not be enough, so a *20,000,060 Italance remaining from last year's drive is being added to the *125.000.000 which must be disbursed. The American people have never tailed to underwrite this obligation. It is a selfimposed tax which none of us. within our means, will hesitate to offer.—New York Times. o American workers lost an estimated 2 million social security cards In 1942.

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO Nat morning, San Diego Bay was treacherously ealm and th* sun thone like a Chamber of CoiAmerce secretary’s aanile. Seaman Linn and Fireman Dun- ,, nevan had got together in the midship passageway to diseus ways , and means of wangling shore lib- ■ erty. They were in a pleasant dither ‘ of suspense.

Cap’n wants to > see you ia his eabin. Right nowl" Fireman Dunnevan gulped. “God loves U. 8. Bailors, yerse! He’s gonna give m liberty, Benny!” This brought a nasty laugh from Yeomaa Webster. “He’s gonna give you something, but from the temper he’s in it won t bo liberty!" “Pipe down, Webster!" “Hurley's just sore because he bet against our horse! Blahhhb, to you, Webster!" Alas, when Tim and Benny came face to faee with Lieut. Csmmander Ihrriek, they know that Yeoman Webster had spoken true words, not latest. “Uan ... Dunaevas!" "Yessir!" "I’m going to give you men two days’ liberty—" “Gees, thank you—" “Pipe down, Tim!" Th* eaptain of the Trimble looked at them ia bitter anger. *1 have just discovered that you and Dwnevaa did more than your usual amount of lying and eouaiving ashore.

ors in civvies presented themselves to Miss Templeton, who was awaiting them on the Ocean Boulevard walk at a discreet distance from the Coronado Hotel. They found a desperate young woman, a girl who had hectie spots of real color on her cheekbones and a deadly glint in her blue eyes. “Good morning, Miss. I guess you unfortunately found out that Mr. Sedgwick bought the wrong horse on account Tim got stewed an* let Ths Pearl switch him back onto us. But wo had plans all set to—" "That will do, Benny." “Yee'm.” Miss Templeton began by saying that she deeply regretted having been obliged to report Tim and Benny to their skipper. Necessity, however, knows no law. She was not angry with them for lying to her; that waa, perhaps, to be eapeeted. She had not done thia out of revenge. She merely wanted to give them a chance to redeem themselves. Fireman Dunnevan's brown eyes Riled with tears. "I’m srful sorry about It, Miss Elnora,” be said. "I an* Benny sure done wrong to lie to you. You jest name whut we should do an' well do it or bust" "Yeah ... that goes for ma, too." The girl looked st Tim and than at Benny. “The Shamrock must not run in that race tomorrow!" she said. “If he runs bell win—! know he will. And then Mr. Sedgwick will go back to the turf for good." “Shucks, Mias, Benny can fix that easy!" “’At’s simple. Well Jest make Desko—that’s the joek—pull him, So’s he’ll come in last." “Deako could make him jump the infield fence, was we to threaten him good!” “I got a even better idea with more ftneaaey, Miaa Elnora. Well Ksead for Erin Go Bragh aa’ put ia The Shamrock’s place, like we was planning to do all along. We would of done it yesterday, bet I am Informed that The Pearl hid Erin Go Bragh out on Votes an* Ten Percent. However—“ All this was as sounding brass i ifN tinkling cymbal to Miao Teai "I’m sorry." she said, trmly, "but 1 I ant trust you boys with any methods se complicated. I have my own idea." , "Yosas?
