Malaria Gorms
By Science Service NEW YORK, March 15.—~The Japs as they retreat ‘may introduce malaria mosquitoes into Ye areas our troops ‘will occupy and are now free of malaria, Prof. ‘Henry E. Meleny of New York ‘university college of medicine de--clared at the national conference on planning and post-war medical services here. Not all the territory in the
_ cific theater is maiarial The
%all wrung out.” Take any
cific isles which were manda ‘to Japan after the last war. are all entirely free from malaria mosquitoes, Prof. Meleny pointed out. * It is possible, he said, that these mosquitoes may deliberately be brought into the islands by the ‘Japs as they leave.

. By HELEN RUEGAMER : Indianapolis may have its transportation problems, its food shortages, its black markets and its man-
power headaches, but .there’s one wartime worry it has solved satis-
prodding or investigati
ing hundreds of soldiers and sailors, their wives, families and sweethearts over the week-ends. Indianapolis is just two jumps ahead of some larger towns — York, Philadelphia, Washington, Chicago—where service men jam railroad stations, hotel lobbies and hallways, looking for a place to sleep. There too often the, best to be found is a hard wooden bench on which to stretch out or an uncomfortable chair, Certainly neither could be much of a respite from army barracks.
* Hotels Set Up Cots
The solution to the local weekend housing problem which is a
found in one word—co-operation. Last November it was a serious situation. But Indianapolis scored a major victory when the local hotel managements, “the USO, civilian defense officials and the army officers agreed to take care of the “boys in uniform.” Probably the most remarkable feature of the co-operative move is the way the hotels, always strong competitors for transient trade, heve entered into the spirit of the project. The larger hotels have
providing sleeping facilities for 250 to 300 more men on week-end leaves. When these are filled, hotel clerks refer the men to smaller hotels around town. They free quently do the telephoning and are ranging, saving weary soldiers
shoe leather. 600 Cots in Service Centers
Through the Indianapolis Service Men’s Centers, Inc, and the National Catholic Welfare Confer= ence, about 600 cots are available for the men, while the ¥Y. W. C. A. will take care of 75 WAVES or WAACs. Facilities for 1000 men and women in service are expected to be ready by the first of April. And when every hotel room and cot is filled and the USO clubs are overflowing, the Homes Registry bureau of the office of civilian defense comes to the rescue by finding rooms in private homes for the men.
Number of Passes Regulated
A great deal of the credit goes to the provost marshals at Ft. Harrison, Camp Atterbury and Stout field who, have regulated the number of
end, thus relieving the congestion considerably. But even the best of plans hits an occasional snag. And the real trouble comes when the family or sweetheart of a soldier or sailor arrives in town to “surprise” him. As one hotel manager said, the visitors frequently are “surprised” when
4 they have to spend some precious
hours looking for rooms. Hotel managers and USO officials offer sage advice to anyone wanting
a room for a week-end: Make a res-
ervation early, because though no one will be left without a rocf over his head, it’s still first come, first served.
AIR WARDENS TO MEET Air raid wardens of the ninth district will meet.at 8 p. m. Monday in the Keystone community center, 800 S. Keystone.ave. They
will be given final instructions for the blackout on Sunday, March 28.

T'S not only natural that you think less driving means you need pay less attention to changing your oil regularly. But there are two important reasons why you should be even more careful!
The finest motor oil is exposed to impurities; dust; ; abrasives and other contaminants carried through'the r. And though your oil lies idle i in the crankcase; partially burned fuel particles are constantly promots . ing. oil deterioration,
In addition, with today’ s short trips at lower driva ing speeds, your engine does not get hot enough to vaporize water formed by combustion and condensas tion. This water accumulates in your erankoase and further contaminates your oil!
Let your Shell Dealer change your oil every time you go fo a new coupon number. That’s every two months. Then you know you’re on the safe side. “While you are having your oil changed, let your Shell Dealer also give your car a complete Shellubrication job— the right amount of the right Shell lubricant in the right places, plus a written guarantee with every job. |
