‘This is my first day, but it won't be my last to help get the ration books out,” said Mrs. Betty Allen, 5610 E. Michigan st. She re- © sponded to a phone call for help. “It’s fun to do. For example, it answers questions I have had in mind. I'd often wondered how some people had so many books.

a War-Time Living— . | Four Freedoms Flag Takes Too Much Cotton, OPA Says

By BETTY MacDONALD . Times Special Writer 3 WASHINGTON, June 30.—Over-the-tea-cup patriots cheered “loudly when the Four Freedoms flag was recently previewed and unfurled here. It was a symbol of unity. The field of white meant purity and peace. The four upright red bars stood "for the Four Freedoms, as yet undefined by the flag committee because “each nation has a different idea about the freedoms.”

There is a place for the teen age group also in the OPA state mailing center. Here Miss Martha Bosler, 15-year-old junior of St. Agnes academy, addresses ration books. “A friend asked me to come and help. I thought it would be a good idea for I am not working regularly right now. Then, too, I have a brother-in-law in service. It may help him some,” she said.

Your Health in War-Time

To Expectant Mothers

By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS _ An expectant mother can do very little to alter the birthweight of her child, but both her health and the baby’s depend greatly on adherence to ‘a correct and adequate diet. ~. Nowadays, when a woman suspects that she is pregnant, she ‘promptly consults a physician. The doctor takes a careful history and thoroughly examines her. The purpose of this procedure is to detect

any woman would eat who would maintain good health. There are no restrictions on or additions to an adequate diet. But because of the additional burden of pregnancy, it is doubly important that the expectant mother be sure that her diet is adequate in fuel value, protein and mineral content and in the vitamins,

Weight Gain Permitted

During the first half of pregnancy, the need for additional food is not great, but during the last half, the baby is growing more rapidly, and the demand for food increases about 20 per cent. If the diet consists of fruit, vegetables, meat, fish or fowl, eggs and milk, te which are added sufficient fats and carbohydrates for energy, the total amount should be that which will permit a gain of about fifteen pounds during the term of pregnancy. It is not possible to keep down the weight of the baby by restricting the diet, because the baby will take its nourishment from the mother and not directly from what she eats. Overeating, based on the idea that the mother must eat for two people, may lead to serious consequences.

FIX PRICES ON WOMEN'S GARE

OPA Orders Ceiling Set on Garments at Last

Fall’s Level.

WASHINGTON, June 30 (U.P). —The office of price administration yesterday gave virtual assurance that the prices of women’s, girls’ and children’s fall dresses, suits, coats, blouses - and similar outer

garments won't rise by fixing consumer ceiling prices for them at approximately last fall's levels. It also removed toddlers’ garments, blouses of sizes less than 30, slacks and slack suits from the general maximum price regulation and put them under a special price order. The order was made effective immediately to avoid any delay by manufacturers who are ready to ship their fall lines in compliance with OPA regulations. Others may deliver as soon as they comply,

OPA Ruling OPA said yesterday’s action gives manufacturers an all-year regulation covering both spring and fall lines, but retains the cost-plus-mar-gin method of pricing already applying to spring lines. Not covered by the provision are dressmakers and custom tailors, who received a marginal allowance in excess of 46 per cent, uniforms and women’s work clothing which ordinarily would be bought only for wear - in industrial, commercial, agricultural and similar occupations. Sportswear and utility wear suitable for general use are covered and two-piece “dresses, previously sold under suit regulations, were returned to the dress category—which may mean some reduction in cost.

due to the lack of volunteer help.

Burch Nunley, OPA state mailing manager, said today that the office is running 50 per cent behind schedule.

21 as the deadline for completion low number of volunteers continues we will run 57 days past deadline,” he said.

The organization received 1,032,800 family applications for book III which represents approximately 3,500,000 individuals . . . more than 95 per cent of the state population. On June 2 the center began mailing out the new ration books and to date only 836,500 have been sent out . , , & daily average of 36,000. Repeated calls for volunteer help have left the mailing center short 800 persons a day. At present 400 workers a day are giving their aid with the average donated time running about three hours. The office can accommodate 400 persons at one time. On this basis the center needs 800 more people a day or a weekly total of 7200 volunteers to complete the mailing process by July 21 Indiana, which falls within the Cleveland region, is far behind the other four states in the area. W. Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio and Michigan will finish on schedule according to reports reaching Mr. Nunley. Ration books by mail was instituted in effort to save time and money. The postage required over the country to mail the applica~ tions to the OPA more than defrays the nation-wide expense for the present operation. . By the method now employed an estimated 30 million man hours will be saved by persons not having to go to registration sites to secure books. Also saved are untold thousands of gallons of gasoline and thousands of pounds of priceless rubber, Mr. Nunley said, “The government could employ enough people to carry on the operation over the nation but the salaries involved would be just another financial burden which would: be reflected through taxes. The tax money could be used better for war goods. “The people we want to reach are those still doing nothing with their leisure time, We know there are plenty. We are open from 9 a. m. to 10 p. m. and it is the day group which is particularly slim. The night response is good. But that is a deplorable situation for they are people who already have put in an eight-hour day or longer,” he said.

Since mailing operations began June 2, Mrs. Dorothy Herrell, 5330 College ave, has been coming steadily one day a week, eight hours a time. She has recruited others for the center. Wanting to help with war work, she volunteered her services. At the mailing center she works in a supervisory capacity as a checker and aids newcomers with the procedure to follow.

at Technical high school, Miss Joanna Mueller, 892 Middle dr, Woodruff Place, donates three days a week, five hours at a time to aid the agency. Miss Mueller serves as supervisor of the checking table and sees to it that there are no mistakes on the books going out. Here she places the official stamp of approval on several book IIIs.

H. E. Reeves, 640 Eastern ave, has good reason to donate his time to some war effort. A veteran of the Spanish-American war, his son, Maj. James R. Reeves, is in the Guadalcanal area. But that is not all. He has three nieces. All are nurses and all are in the army medical corps. One is already overseas, He works at the center four days a week from 9 a. m. to 12:30 p. m.

PROMULGATION OF 43 LAWS DELAYED

William Hutchison, chief clerk in the secretary of state's office, said today he had been informed that the new laws passed by the 1943 legislature would not be printed until about Aug. 1. . All laws passed, except those carrying emergency clauses, do not become effective until they are printed and promulgated by order of the governor. The laws usually are promulgated in June or July, but wartime conditions delayed printing this year by the Bookwal-ter-Ball-Greathouse Printing Co.

The delay in printing keeps from | going into effect the new financial responsibility law which has been scheduled to become effective to-
