Budget and Charge Accounts. F. J. PRESTON SON Inc 17 UPPER CHURCH STREET BarllngtOB, Vermont Special to the Free Press RUTLAND, Sept. 6 Last spring will long be remembered in the northeast for its devasting forest fires.

There were 14,130 of them in the 14 northeastern states and they burned over 749,295 acres. The annual forest fire toll over the nation is approximately $35, 000,000 in property loss alone. About 170,000 fires occur and they sweep over about thirty million acres of woodland. Sometimes lives are lost. The forests are needed this year as they were never needed before.

iWood is going into airplanes, cantonments, shipping cases, gun-' stocks, piling for bridgeheads iwhen the marines make a beach-Ihead and a thousand war uses. Wood cellulose is going into gun-cotton. Fuel wood is replacing coal and oil. Oak is going into ships. Turpentine and rosin from southern trees help keep the navy going.

Wood poles are holding communication lines and wood ties support extra loads on our railroads. New wood synthetics are coming rapidly into the war picture. Wood waste in war is tantamount to sabotage. To Combat Loss To combat this loss. Secretary of Agriculture Claude R.

Wickard has announced a nation-wide forest fire prevention campaign to be conducted by the U. S. Forest Serv ice in conjunction with state forest services, patriotic groups and other public and private "In war time," said Secretary Wickard, "the control and preven tion of forest fires is a first line defense job on the home front, In the 14 northeastern states this campaign gets under way on La bor day, Sept. 7. This announce ment was made here by Forest Supervisor Otto G.

Koenig of Green Mountain National forest. Theme of Campaign The theme of the national wartime forest fire prevention cam paign is "Careless Matches Aid the Axis Prevent Forest Fires." The symbol of the campaign de vised by the advertising council incorporated, as a patriotic con tribution, is the leering head of a Japanese soldier, holding a Special to the Free Press MONTPELIER, Sept. 6 A general order placing the entire taxi-cab industry in the United States under strict regulation in order to save tires, gasoline and vehicles has been issued by Joseph B.

Operators of Service Industries Must File Information With Board Special to the Free Press MONTPELIER, Sept.

6 A notice to Vermont operators of service industries and trades that they must file certain information with their local OPA war price and rationing boards by Sept. 10 is contained in a letter mailed to 5,000 such operators by local boards. Since the first of this month every establishment subject to the services regulation (MPR No. 165) must have available for public inspection a statement of ceiling prices and other information, Although such ceiling prices do not have to be posted, C. P.

Smith, OPA state price officer explained. The warning sent out to the boards today is to the effect that a duplicate of this statement must be filed with the local board on or before the 10th of this month. The statement, which is to be filed and which must also be available in the place of business for examination by any person during business hours, must show (1) the highest prices charged for service supplied during March, 1942; (2) the pricing method, if any, regularly used during March, 1942 and (3) all customary allowances, dis counts and price differentials. This list must be kept up to date by adding similar information with respect to services offered for the first time after March, 1942. Federal Controls The state price officer explained service industries and trades were established by MPR No.

165 which was known as the Consumer Services regulation. A revision of this regulation which became effective Aug. 19, dropped the word "consumer" from the title and extend ed coverage to include wholesale services and services to commercial and industrial consumers as well as ultimate consumers. The regulation now applies to 61 major groups of services, embracing most of those important to the cost of living.

Many merchants throughout the east are participating in this campaign. They are including envelope "stuffers" carrying the campaign symbol and the forest fire preven tion message their monthly statements to customers. Public utility companies are describing the campaign and its purposes in 'house organ literature that goes to their customers and patrons. In some communities merchants and patriotic groups are sponsoring full-page advertisements in local newspapers carrying the fire pre vention message. The Danger Period The forest fire prevention cam paign gets under way just ahead of the fall fire season in the north east that period between the fall ing of the leaves and the coming of snow, when the forests are very dry.

It will be continued through the next fire season which begins in the late winter after the snow rnelts and lasts until the forests are green again.

6 New England has received $6,211,186,000 worth of war supply and facilities projects contracts, it was announced today by the statistical department of the New England Council, regional development organization. This is 8 per cent of the national total of some $77 billions awarded by the army, navy, maritime commission, treasury department, and the British Empire up to July 1 of this year. New England's part in the war effort is more accurately gauged by its share of war production contracts alone, which are 9.5 per cent by value of the national total. This is slightly more than New England's portion of national manufacturing in the pre-war year of 1939 when it accounted for 8.6 per cent by value of the country's out put. Half of the region's war production activity, according to dollar values, is divided between two major industries.

The aircraft indus try, largely in Connecticut, has received 28 per cent of the contracts awarded in New England. The shipbuilding industry accounts for 22 per cent of the total. The balance of New England's share is spread over the hundreds of other items necessary to the war effort and is shared in by the industries of all six states. 223 Launchings And Keel Layings Of Ships Today NEW YORK, Sept. 6 least 223 launchings and keel layings of vessels ranging from 10,500 ton liberty ships to small, speedy tor pedo craft and from last, sieeK destroyers to slow army tugboats will set a world record for maritime construction in ceremo nies observing Labor day.

6 The ex tent to which Congressman Charles A. Plumley of Northfield has the confidence of Vermont Republican voters, and the exent to which Samuel R. Ogden of Landgrove has been able to convince voters that he would represent the state congress better than the incum bent will be the main issues be fore Republicans in Tuesday's primary, which climaxes a campaign of less than five weeks. The polls are open from 11 a. m.

Jo 7 p. E.W.T. The Ogden-Plumley battle is the only contest on the whole state ticket in either the Republican or Democratic primaries, althoueh there are a number of local contests. Although interest in many cir cles is keen in the Congressional contest, there has not been the fanfare and publicity attendant upon it that many campaigns in re cent years have caused, notably the 'Aiken-Flanders contest two years ago. Plumley has been Congressman since 1934, while Ogden, a member of board of conservation and development, has served in three sessions of the state legislature.

He is a blacksmith by trade. John B. Candon of Pittsford is the only candidate for Congressman in the Democratic primaries Candon is a farmer. State GOP Ticket Heading the list of state officers in the Republican primaries is Gov. William H.

Wills of Bennington, unopposed for re-nomination to his second term. Wills is Vermont first war-time governor in nearly a quarter of a century, and he would be a formidable opponent for any candidate who might have chosen to run against him. The rest of the Republican ticket, all unopposed, are: Lieutenant gov ernor, Mortimer R. Proctor of six unidentified vessels, in unnamed sections of the state.
