It is an advance It is not a warning, a stand-baerial bombardment, an of Cromise t that the responsible leaden charged with civilian defense have been told that something may happen in the particular locale; it may not, but be prepared. This warning- originated with the Interceptor Command in a system of instrument locators and civilian observers. It is not an experiment It is not a system that is being tried out. It is a scientifically operated plan for air defense that has saved the life of It means that planes England. can wait on ground alert instead of in the air. It means that one pursuit plane, on the ground, ready to .take off, can do the work that it would require sixteen to do on air alert or air patrol. "Other things may happeA after this first warning. The identification process, continuing, may establish that it is not an enemy formation, just as a patrolman, finding a stranger as he walks his beat, may find that he is not a robber, but a responsible citizen on legitimate business.

Davis Students Rank High at State School SALT LAKE CITY Davis county students at the University of Utah again took top honors in j sus-taine- ut within a) few days, it was announced today, by DeVon Y. Stewart, supervisor of the Department of Agriculture agency in Davis county. The new program, announced in San Francisco this week by FSA Regional Director L. I. Hewes. Jr., will include special Food for Victory" loans available to small farmers hitherto ineligible for FSA assistance. Mr. Stewart explained, since eligibility requirements have been sharply reduced. j Supplemental loans will also be available for the 139 farmers m Davis county who are now FSA borrowers. The program is designed to mobilize the man power and land resources of small family farmers so that they can get into maximum production and make a real and vital contribution to our war effort, Mr. Stewart said.

It Was Just the FARMINGTON. Residents and Syracuse were literally "in a dither Tuesday night . . . they thought the enemy was here and Davis of West Point county was being invaded. Sheriff Joseph Holbrook received approximately 40 calls from residents in the area, who were witnessing fire. Calls to army officials revealed to the sheriff that it was merely a practice session. That Davis countys air raid precaution system is funcwas revealed by the tioning fact that officials in this division were right on the job, making inquiries into the situation. The practice session, near West Point, was carried on from 7:3o p. m. to about 9:30 anti-aircra- than larger farmers, and were going to help them do it. "We are particularly asking small farmers to raise their own food to the greatest possible extent, and we are going to encourage production for home consumption in every way we can.

We know that small farmers do not want to limit production just because they cant get a guarantee of a certain price. We will make every effort to arrange for marketing and outlets ahead of time, but were going to urge farmers to produce first. We need as much production as possible of all essential agricultural products in Davis county. The Federal agency will make special efforts to loan funds to any farmer who will put in a garden and- raise the food the family haB been buying, Mr. Stewart said. The FSA will help buy garden seed in large quantities through purchase associations.- Loans will also be made for pooling machinery and for farm repair cooperatives, as well as for crop seed, fertilizer, livestock, equipment, building and repairs.
