can’t transmit so many different sets of ballots to the various war fronts to guarantee that the proper ballots are available regardless of what congressional districts are represented in a single military units. 1 ' Bridges said. “I’ll grant -that it would be a terrific job. It also is true that the ballots might have to be printed before some states nave named their nominees for those offices. “But, the candidates for president will be named by the first week of July. They’ll be the same on all ballots. There’s no reason why their names shouldn’t be on the ballots.”

FUNERAL SERVICES FOR MISS MARY BIRCH TUES.
Funeral services f r Miss Mary K. Birch were held at the Hector Funeral Home on Tuesday morning, January 25th at 10:30 a. m. The Reverend John Tennant of Gobin church was in charge. By choice of the family the old gospel hymn, “In the Sweet Bye and Bye” was used at the opening of the service. It was followed by the ritual scripture and prayers appointed to be used in the Methodist church at the burial of the dead. The favorite hymn of Miss Birch's mother, “O Love Thai Wilt Not Let Me Go,” was read following the scripture. Mr. Tennant then delivered a short address. Miss Birch was characterized as “a worthy daughter who cared for hei mother in a long invalidism and for her sister in time of weakness.” “a worthy daughter of the community of Greencastle,” and “a worthy daughter of DePauw University.” She had done graduate work in Cornell University and in the American Academy in Rome. While in DePauw she was a member of Kappa Alpha Theta fraternity and of Phi Beta Kappa. She was a loyal daughter of the church throughout her life and in all these telationshlps; to home, community, university and church she was characterized by her loyalty
ami her strong convictions.
Miss Birch had not much time in which to contemplate the end but her living faith was such that she lived in a positive certainly of the supremacy of the things of the spirit over J inateaal obstacles. Therefore as we , continue this memoiial service of I thanksgiving for her life, let us give 1 thanks for that which is past, fo • the fidelity, loyalty, and strong con-

| CALL FOR CONTINUED CSC of (SUxtSBDIES SUBJECT TO
CONGRESS APPKOV VI,
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26 (UP) — War Food Administrator Marvin Jones today announced 1944 food production support prices calling for continued use of subsidies, subject to
approval by congress.
He listed government-guaranteed prices for 34 principal farm products which he said were necessary to enable farmers to plan now for meeting the biggest food production goals in the nation’s history. The announcement, weeks later than usual, strengthened belief that the administration had r“'ached an understanding with congress for con. tinuation of major portions of the
food subsidy program.

I* VR VALUE FOK VI (M K Putnam county farmers who have paid off their Federal Land Bank loans but whose stock in the 1st Putnam County National Farm Loan Association was not retired when such loans were paid, will receive full par value for that stock immediately, announces Lynn Brown, sec-retary-treasurer. Mr. Brown said that a check for $24,745.00 hail been received by the association from the Federal Land Bank of Louisville for the specific purpose of cashing all the unredeemed stock retirement certificates for which the association is obligated. Some 250 farmers in Putnam county will attar.- in the cash payment. Most of them have paid off their loans during the jiast year or two when .'arm income has been up. "Although the old association was forced to suspend stock settlements several years ago when low prices and low yields resulted in heavy ielinquencies and losses on the mortgage 1 >ans our issoclation had endorsed, farmers i.i this community have always had Federal Land Bank loans available 1,0 them at a low rate of interest.’’ "We are now able to resume payments on this stock at this time unler an agreement just signed with he Federal Land Bank of Louisville, which is distributing a part of its -arned savings t. absorb these loss-
's.
•‘At the same time, associations .perating in' Putnam and Hendricks ountn-s have agreed to consolidate nto one single association to serve he entile territory they formerly lerved separately. This will result n considerable savings in operating xpt-nse, both in the local ass .elation .ffice and in the Federal Land Bank it Louisville. It* will also give us nore time to serve better our prea--nt members and those applying for oans.” Mr. Brown explain <1 that all farmers shown by the association's records would be notified t . present their stock retirement certificates for payment.

ADVANCED ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, New Guinea. Jan. 26.— (UP) American fighters and bombers shot down or damaged 80 Japanese plants and hit five enemy cargo vessels in new blows at shipping and air strength supplying Japan’s Southwest Pacific defense lines, a communique announced today. The attacks, leveled at Rabaul, enemy base on the northern tip of New Britain, and Lorengau on Admiralty i Manus i Island 370 miles n .rthwest of Rabaul. cost only five planes as the Americans achieved an 11 to one margin of superiority. Medium bombers and fighters attacked Loi ngau Monday, setting ilme 1,000-ton cargo ships afire in the Harbor, an important link in the Japanese supply and outpost system. Two othei carg > ships were damaged severely and several b n ,-s and harbor craft were drstrov-'d at the harbor, which is on tin- no: l boast orn tip of the largest i-i. rd in the Adaiiialty Islands gn.up.

ably another.
The two attacks on Rabaul. costing only five planes, followed Saturday’s action in which 18 enemy planes were shot d .wn and dealt crushing blows to Japanese attempts to mass sufficient fighter strength to repulse the daily American raids.
