The effectiveness of antisubmarine warfare in the battle of the Atlantic was shown Sunday by a tabulation of announced a i losses in the western Atlantic for May thru August when 36 United Nations and neutral ships were sunk by U-boats as compared to 295 in the same period last year.

Barn's volunteer- army of 5,000,000 war bond salesmen will visit factories, homes and even harvest fields during the 22 day $15,000,000,000 third war loan. The emphasis is on individual participation, National Director Ted Gamble said Saturday night The salesman are under orders to call on every man and woman in America, beginning a morning, and to sell at least 60,000,000 bonds. "Millions of workers will be solicited at their benches in the factories," Gamble asserted.

"Millions will be visited in their homes; millions will find bond booths and eager salesman at their elbows no matter where they go. Farmers in their fields will be visited. Even children at school will be made aware that Uncle Sam needs their help, too." Recalling the success of iast year's jeep campaign among- the youngsters, the treasury decided on a similar but enlarged drive this fall. Asked to buy bonds and stamps equivalent to the price of 10,000 jeeps, the school children last year responded overwhelm- and actually bought enough to cover the cost of 39,535 of the '-vehicles. This year sinkings during months when weather conditions were most favorable to underseaa naval warfare pointed up -the joint Roosevelt-Churchill statement last month that the Allied "offensive operations against axis submarines continue to progress most favorably in all areas."

Eastman, saying that "substantial numbers" of railroad men are not working long enough, called Saturday night for an end to "full crew" requirements and mileage limits on train jobs. Elimination of such practices was one of 13 points Eastman proposed to railway management and unions in the interest of the war effort.

"It may prove that the measures set forth will not be sufficient," he said. "In that event, it would seem that the only recourse will be further legislation by congress, and the office of defense transportation will do what it can to promote such legislation."

William Green, president of the American (A.F.L.), Federation of Labor said workers on the home front have met their test with success equal to that of their fighting brothers, but warned "the tasks ahead greater." "More than of us appear even ever before," he said, "we realize on this Labor day that every war plant is the starting point of direct attack against the enemy." American production, Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins said, is one of the major reasons "why complete and sweeping victory must ultimately come to the United Nations." Frank Knox, secretary of the navy, described the plans now ready for vast military offensives as" baaed largely on the supplies and weapons "that will be forth coming from this great arsenal of democracy." He paid tribute to the 'unstinted co-operation" of labor in the past and added, "we know we can depend on you." Admiral Ernest J.

Preliminary drafts of the main policy statement already had been distributed to some members anc there were indications that if thj council accepts them it will declare for international co-operation tc preserve the peace--with som reservations--and offer a four point program for the home front. In their preliminary form, these points would pledge the advisory council to develop recommendations for the national convention looking toward: 1.

Maintenance of full employment thru the encouragement of private enterprise. 2. Elimination of "undeservec hardship and poverty." 3. Elimination of "unnecessary' regulation of individuals and of industry. 4.

Insurance of "equal opportunity and incentive to all to improve their conditions of life."

Frolik reported Monday. Both the acreage harvested and the yield per acre declined. P. B. McMullen, Pawnee county extension agent, likewise has reported that production of brome seed there is only about that of 1942.

And, Pawnee county is generally recognized as one of the leading bromegrass seed-producing counties in Nebraska. The demand for seed appears to be strong. Certified Lincoln bromegrass seed is retailing at 20 cents per pound and common seed of good quality is selling at an average of about 15 cents per pound. Efficient Use of Machinery.

I've a fine wife, good cook, housekeeper and mother. I am a professional man and she can keep up her share well both as a guest or aa a hostess, but she is about 60 pounds over weight and doesn't give a rap. She gained by overeating and is still gaining that way. Now my pride is hurt as well as her health. I've overheard folks remarking about her ability to store away': the fats and what they are doing to her for she is often so cross and doesn't feel well and who would, carrying around 60 pounds extra?

If you put it solely on the score of health, perhaps you can persuade her to go to a physician who will outline a diet for her. But that will be only the first step. Abiding by it will be something else. Sixty pounds overweight is dangerous few hearts could stand that strain. Every time complains of not feeling well, or every time she is cross, say something like this, "Dear let me make an appointment with Or for you.

No one should diet without the advice and supervision of physician. There are all too many cases of broken health caused by self-ordered dieting.

Lots of men -and women, too who think they are dieting, break over with a home style malted milk or a big piece of pie or cake in the middle of the afternoon or in the evening thus nullifying all the self-denial they have exercised earlier in the day. enviously naa been puilec back.

The Italian toe area has two serious one between the gulfs of Sant' Eufemia and Squillace halfway up from the southern tip, and the other between the gulfs of Policastro anc Taranto.

Fear of being cut oft by additional landings at these points presumably led the axis not to keep strong forces posted near the tip of the toe. Among villages occupied by columns sweeping up the coast road were San Gregorio, San Leo, Pellaro, Madonnella, Lazzaro, Cannitello and Porto Salvo.

Italians Surrender. A South African lieutenant, one of the first fliers to land at the Reggio Calabria airdrome, said "many Italian soldiers in full Marching order came from the lills to surrender. Some were still armed." The preponderance of Italians among the prisoners indicated the Germans again were using them as rearguards to cover their own withdrawal, as they did repeatedly in Africa and Sicily.

He identi- 'ied two units in action as the Canadian First division and British Fifth division. A tremendous barrage of 900 runs lined up hub to hub on the Sicilian shore preceded the first issault forces, Lee added, and DeLuce described the heavy attack as like an elephant stepping on a gnat.

Flames were pouring out of the hole," said Maj. William Veal of New Rochelle, N.

When fellow fliers last saw him'as they neared the Brenner pass, Snyder was leaning out the window to beat out the flames. He lost his grip and' fell out. He had no parachute on, they said, and agreed that he must have been killed. His ship was not seen after that.

Another line was cut by three "hits, while four hits were scored on one end of the freight yards, "At Trento, both roads and railway lines were badly hit" with a concrete road bridge over the Adige river destroyed and a highway-viaduct over the main railway blocked by two hits. "The Verona-Bolzano main lines also were blocked at the junction by four craters" with severe damage to buildings, the station, and freight yards.
