Commissioners To Meet January 1st

It Will Be No Holiday For County Dads Who Face Important Subjects New Ye&rlp . I)ay may \mean a holiday to most of the-pul)lie, but to the Jasper County Commissioners it will mean another work day and wi]d mark the advent of “Waldby Dug'jtglby of Tefft as a member of the board for the first time. Mr. Duggleby will start in as a commissioner that day as successor of William H. (“Old Faithful” Middelkamp who is closing out three terms in that sea^ Included in the head of-the-year meeting will be the appointment of official* for certain—county posts and the usual run of business that a first-of-the-year meeting demands.

Aluminum in the Garden

If a gardening enthusiast could obtain in its pure state all of the aluminum that he unearths in his daily diggings, he'd have enough of the metal to completely equip the home with cooking utensils and probably. with an all-aluminum house. For, potentially, every pail of garden dirt contains a pound of the lightweight metal. But the gardener would find if he dug himself a couple of tons of garden dirt that, although theoretically he might have approximately 500 pounds of aluminum, it would cost him a fortune to separate it from the earth.

TWO YANKS DIVISIONS TO PATROL EAST

American Forces To B e Stationed I n Turbulent Middle - East Sectors Washington, Dec. 30 Two American combat-ready infantry divisions are prepared to sail for patrol duty in Greece or Palestine upon orders from President Truman, military sources disclosed today. The 2d marine division at Camp Lejeune, N. C., is at full combat. strength and can move upon 24 hours’ notice in navy transports, which already have been designat- ! ed under navy defense plans, it was learned. The army’s crack 82d air borne division at Fort Bragg, N.C., could start embarking within a week to 10 days. Each division has a peacetime strength of approximately 15,000, but could be expanded to more than 17,000 with combat reinforcements. Part of the 82d is participating in winter maneuvers in upper New York.

Report Marines Are Alerted. Marine corps headquarters here has been buzzing with reports that the 2d division command has been alerted for possible overseas assignment. Gen. Vandegrift, marine corps commandant who goes on inactive status Dec. 31, declined to comment on these rumors, but officers on his staff conceded that the 2d division was prepared for an assignment in the middle east. With Greek rebels, allegedly communist led, threatening the Greek government, which is being supported with American funds, the United States state department may have to modify its position that no; American troops are to be sent to Greece, military sources said. Troops Held Last Resort. Military observers noted, however, that the troops would be

dispatched only if Greece is critically menaced by a full scale communist invasion which could overthrow the present government. They said that Persident Truman would delay outright military intervention in Greece until the last moment in the hope that Greek government forces would be able to repel the rebel army. The United States has provided Greece with 300 million dollars in military and economic aid. Mr. Truman would be reluctant to send American troops on foreign duty in an election year, it was emphasized. He has kept 15 warships in the Mediterranean since the war as a symbol of American military might, but this force has scrupulously stayed out of local squabbles.

We extend to you and yours a cordial greeting for the New Year. May some of the happy spirit of New Year’s Eve be parceled out through the long stretch of days as 1948 doles out the Good Luck we wish for you. DEMOTTE FEED SALES & SERVICE
