Business Only' The 1943 convention, which during the past has attracted thousands of visitors and featured such events as parades, banquets and contests, was slated for Racine this year. The change in plans to make it one for business only prompted the Racine delegation to withdraw as the convention city until the victory meeting is held. Louis Bandelin, Racine, commander of the First district, presented Lake Point Rationing I Continued from Pb 1 1 point value of the various rationed items. Abundant foods will be assigned lesser value in points. Scarce foods will be assigned greater value in points The point values of the rationed goods will be announced in the newspapers and will be posted in grocery stores.

No Date Set H. A. Bendfelt, chairman of the Waukesha board. Tuesday urged county residents to familiarize themselves with the workings of the point rationing system so they wont be confuted by it when the program goes into effect sometime next month. No definite date for the establishment of the new rationing program has been set as yet since that date will depend on the distribution of book number two to local ration boards throughout the nation.

Keep Cool; Save Fuel Another aid to Wisconsin farmers is the 30 per cent increase in farm machinery production authorized by the War Production Board. Price ceilings have been set on seven 'new coffee substitutes and compounds, some of which may appear on retail shelves in the near future.

Ration- banking, the handling of ration coupons by the Nations banks after they have passed out of trade channels, went into effect on Jan. 27, and also wall apply to the point ration plan. Critical materials of any kind may not be used in making fishing tackle, and scarce metals arent going into sporting goods except in small quantities, but therell be enough fishhooks for the average Wisconsin fisherman. ally we can continue to lead our normal lives, leaving the spirit of self-sacrifice to our soldiers and sailors, we shall unquestionably run the risk of a stalemate with Japan. I do not have the slightest doubt of our eventual victory.

But I do not wish to see the period of our blood, sweat and tears Indefinitely and unneces-sarily prolonged. We must not fail to realize that we are up against a powerful fighting machine, a people whose morale cannot be broken even by successive defeats and untold economic hardship, a people who gladly sacrifice their lives for their Emperor and their nation. We must also remember that Japan did not start this war without carefully laid military plans for victory over the United States and a peace dictated by their war lords at the White House. This is a total war. the only answer to which is a total American victory.

It is a war in which had measures of any kind mean incredible waste cf material, energy and human life. In this sense a half-filled War Savings Stamp album is symbolic of a half effort. There are, I am told, roughly 100 million par-tially complete War Stamp albums now in circulation. These uncompleted Stamp albums are, in a measure, like a 100 million threats to a' speedy and victorious peace. On the other hand, for every War Savings album completed and in for a Bond, you the owner have helped some soldier or sailor take a forward step on the uphill road to victory, in of any of the many 1000 per8ona are eligible to subproblems that arise.

C. In describing one of the big air battles over Guadalcanal a recent newspaper account tells of an American flyer who parachuted from his crippled plane to the waters of Lunga Bay. 'The Navy craft which pteked him up next went to the rescue of a Japanese pilot seen struggling in the water nearby.

As the rescue boat reached the Japanese flyer he suddenly pulled out his revolver, aimed it at the drenched American pilot and pulled the trigger. The cartridge failed to explode. Then the Japanese officer turned the gun on himself with suicidal intent. Again he pulled the trigger and again his revolver failed him. At this point an American sailor knocked him out with a boat hook and pulled him aboard the American craft a prisoner.

Almost daily one reads stories such as this one, and all of them clearly demonstrate that war with our enemy in the Pacific cannot end in compromise. For ten years I lived in Japan. The truth as I know it from close observation is this: Nothing less than the exertion of our maximum car-intes. individually and in a vsar of offense will bring our country safely to the iongeJ-tor haven of victorious peace. The Japanese are pawns of a scnseless b- mighty militarism Although war-time curtailments began to be felt by the conservation department during 1942, the department feels that it has been a the past year especially, have been numerous and of wide description.

I Encourages Insurance The letter also contains an ap-' peal to the members of the families to keep the local newspaper informed of any news about their men, about their addresses and changes in rank. The list of addresses as published from time to time has proven helpful to local organ! aztions and individuals, has served to encourage letter writing to the boys and has aided them in contacting friends from home who are likewise located at stations and camps. Advocating the taking out of as much government insurance as possible, the letter concludes with the reminder that when the time comes for his release from the service, see that he keeps as much of it as possible it is the cheapest and best insurance he can get."

Walworth county this month became a member of the exclusive Ten Per Cent" club of the Wisconsin Council of Defense when enrollment figures submitted by the County Council of Defense indicated more than 10 per cent of its population was engaged in some form of civilian defense activity.

According to the report, 3,500 persons had been enrolled as of Dec. 31, 1942, giving the county 20th place in the state on a percentage basis. The ummary shows that 10.5 per cent of the countys 33,103 Inhabitants have been registered by county and local councils. Altogether, there are 24 counties in the state with an enrollment of 10 per cent or more. Greater participation is expected in the next report, county defense leaders believe, because of increasing activity of the Block Plan organization and other aspects of the citizen's service corps, including the victory reporters attached to the county speakers bureau.
