HXRRISBURG JTELEGRXPH JULY 14, 1942 War Shortages and Rationing Cut Liquor Bootlegging TUESDAY EVENING Vio la tors Unab le To Get Ingredients Which They Need State Liquor Board Officer Declares "Almost Everything Is Against the Bootlegger" Since the War War shortages and rationing have cut liquor bootlegging in Pennsylvania to "practically nothing, N. L. Hunter, btate Liquor Control Board enforcement officer, declared today, "Almost everything is against thembootlegger," he asserted. In 1941, the board seized 191 stills and arrested 677 persons on charges of illegal possession and manufacture of whisky. In the previous year, 238 stills were confiscated and 584 persons arrested.

"The big bootleggers are gone," asserted Hunter, "they can't get many "of the important ingredients for distilling liquor even if they wanted to and with working con ditions what they are there aren't many forced to turn to bootleg ging for a living." He pointed out that sugar, essential to bootleg whisky manu facture, is rationed and molasses is scarce. The metal shortage pre vents the purchase of copper stills and alcohol, for "bathtub gin" is off the market. "About the only bootleggers still In business are those who have a small quantity of sugar on hand and are using washtubs to make the whisky," Hunter said.

0. Men Training By Thousands At Fort Bragg Mammoth Army Center Has More Than 30 Chapels, 35 Post Exchanges Fort Bragg, N. July 14 Should you, or even an Axis agent, have any lingering delu sions that our Army is training for and planning to fight a de fensive war, I can't conceive any better cure than a visit the cozy little Army post known as Fort Bragg. The mere size of the place will stagger you. Reputedly it is the biggest post in the country.

Undoubtedly is one of the largest in the world, Statistically, it now houses any where from 60,000 to 85,000 men on a 167,000 acre reservation so huge that when 240 mm. how itzers (about nine inch guns, and our heaviest Field Artillery weap on) are tossing 450 pound shells on the nearest of several firing ranges, you can't hear even rumble at Post Headquarters. It is so large that, in the way of recreational facilities, it has 10 theatres, five service clubs with guest houses, more than 30 chao els, at least 15 baseball diamonds, 35 post exchanges (where you can buy anything from a raincoat to coke), and three golf courses. It is serviced by six three en gine fire stations; by three laun aries, each of which employs mere than 400 workers; by seven post exchange and three Quar termaster Corps filling stations by mile upon mile of paved road railroad track with sidings and spurs, water mains power lines; by three hospitals, of which tne largest has 2,680,000 square feet of floor space, 83 wards and 1680 beds which can be expand ed to 2000 if needed. It is, above all, a workmanlike establishment.

There are no fancy trimmings. The barracks (which once, at the peak construction period, were being completed at the rate of one every 11 seconds) are built for utility and not for looks. Except for trips to town In their free time or on official business, the enlisted men are In dungarees sweaty dungarees from reveille to retreat, learning what it takes to make a hardhitting soldier in Uncle Sam's Army. There is even more than that, though. From the two star Gen eral in command of a division to the no stripe' Private in command of a pick and shovel in the Field Artillery replacement center, they all appear motivated by just one thought to get overseas and beat the ears off the enemy.

Agnes Catholic Parish here. Parachutist Describes Thrills of First Jump Mechanicsburg Youth Gets His Wings at Fort Benning 1 raining Center Thrills and spills in his first jumps as parachutist with the United States forces were described by Samuel Hpllinger, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hollinger, 219 East Locust street, Mechanicsburg, who received his wings and diploma last week. Stationed at the communication school, First Parachute Training Regiment, Fort Georgia, Hollinger enlisted February 26 Prior to joining the Army he was a senior at Mechanicsburg High School, where he was president of the Student Council, and held other offices and scholastic honors.

Relating how he felt when time arrived for the first jump, Sam wrote. "Our parachutes were pre viously packed and our harnesses previously adjusted so as to fit snug. We all had crash helmets and jump' boats, and were quite ready. After going through the customary check of equipment, we were lined Up, all nervous and expectant, to get into our plane "I had two thrills in store, my first plane and, naturally, my first jump. Finally the crucial moment, arrived.

A noisy, roaring plane taxied up and our squad moved off. We were led by an instructor around the tail and entered by a side door. As we rounded the tail, a terrific prop blast hit us and with effort we pushed toward the door. But this all added to the excitement. "We took our seats and waited, nervously trying to look calm.

Finally we heard a voice out of the haze saying something about fastening a safety belt. We automatically grasped for it and somehow fastened it. And then, with a mighty roar the plane sped for the take off. "I sat in the third seat from the back, trying to swallow or whistle or sing or do something. It seemed like eternity had passed when I heard the jumpmaster say, yel ling above the roar of the engines, Unfasten your safety belts.

Stand up and hook "At this command my heart sank and I knew it had come. Suddenly I began to realize really wasn scared. I was just nervous. Soon the command came, Check We did this and with no time lost, the jump master ordered, Stand to door. "The 1 man did a right pivot and stood facing the open door, his hands tensely gripping the sides, his head and eyes look ing up and his chest well out Then the signal came from below and our instructor had seen it.

Wham' with a slap on the leg and hearty 'Go', the first man was out. From this time until I looked up and saw a 'beautiful white canopy, I will never be able to tell you just what happened. I turned and looked at the plane which was fifty yards distant. "Upon jumping I fell free about 15 feet and then felt a badly racking shock, which opened the ehute. Then I suddenly realized that I would be near the ground.

Sure enough, there it came, rushing up like a rocket, I just had time enough to turn my back to the wind and pull on the risers, which temporarily slowed my descent, and then I hit and rolled over. I had made my first jump!" Sams letter continues, telling of his three subsequent jumps, and of the presentation of his wings. He said of the company of 250 men one third were dis qualified because of physical shortcomings, "freezing" at the door, refusal to enter the plane and several "passing out" at the door. He said he was selected from the company for communications duty. In this work, he told his parents, he will deal with code and radio.
