ed. “Our nation of sugar has been
cut to 70 percent of last year’s
amount and we have fifty percent
Targer’ population to rfeed. There

“Something has got to lbe done
about it. ‘We should take it up with
Henderson, our Washington delega

everyone else that might get some
action in any way on it” Belair con

Finds Navy School Is
Plenty Tough Going
That service men appreciate hear
ing from home is again evidenced
«by a note received this morning at
Ernie Huber, fame; manager of the
Chevrolet garage here, in which he
says: _
“I have intended several times to
write to you and thank you for send
ing the paper. You can be sure that
I read every inch of it. I think
probably the men in the service are
your best readers. They are all so
anxious to cheat news from 'home
and the newspaper is certainly .a
fine source.
“I am now enrolled in a quarter
master’s school, a. course which lasts
four months» At present I am just
starting, the, various subjects seem
rather difficult, but I am sure after
getting into the'swing of it, things
will be a little easier. They keep
us busy here from 5:30 am. until
9:30 .pm., except, on Sunday, when
we have liberty or can do pretty
much as we please.
“Let me thank you again for the
newspaper. I certainly enjoy read
ing the column of letters from the
other service men. Best regards to
anyone else I might know up there."
