Commission Machine g ry L. Garfield, secretary-treasure- r. The business people, with the aid and cooperation of citizens, feel that now is an opportune time to obtain improvements for the town, and intend to get aid on new sidewalks as an initial project Butchers Report Business As Usual Here All meat except steaks and roast of beef became ration free recently, but that doesnt mean that all the points that formerly went into hamburger and pork andtamb can be diverted to bigger and juicer sirloins. There will be only half as many red points as before. Local butchers report that business is about as usual, and there was not any undue rushing to stock up." The Office of Price Administration figures the average consumer can have more of the items still to be rationed steak and beef roast, butter, margarine, cheese and evaporated milk. And of course he can have all the hamburger, pork and other meat he can find and pay for; The actual effect on each individual will vary widely according to what has been bought with red points in the past For instance a person who has used most of his red points for steak and butter will be cut in those items. If he has been eatsteak and a ing a quarter pound of butter every two weeks heretofore, he has had 17 of his allotment of 30 red points left for other items, including the meats, taken off rant tioning. How It Works Out With the red point allowance slashed to 15 every two weeks, he will have only two points every two weeks for cheese, evaporated milk and margarine unless he cuts steak and butter consump- tion. The reduction in number of available red points will be accomplished by validating 30 per person every four weeks instead of 30 every two weeks as in the past. Record Run of Hogs OPAs decision to give all cuts of pork, veal, lamb and mutton, and all other rationed meats (except beef steaks and roasts) a zero point value" until further notice reflects the record run of hogs continuing to come to market, a good supply" of lamb and mutton and a large backlog of beef cattle on the nations ranges. Chester Bowles, OPA administrator, said OPA will continue the bonus plan as long as we can. beefsteaks and Concerning roasts which will continue to require from 7 to 13 red points a pound, with the exception of flank steaks which were made point free, Bowles said: The Volume of beefsteaks and roasts now coming to market is not large enough in relation to demand to warrant any point change at this time. Hamburger was among the items removed from rationing but the administrator explained that if a housewife picks out a round steak and asks the butcher to hamburger it, that will cost The State Board of Health has been offered the use of a smoke testing machine by the American Smelting A Refining Company, and will also tram a state chemist in the use of it, it was revealed at a meeting Monday evening of the Smoke Committee. W. J. OConnor, manager of the AS&R, had been invited to attend the meeting, but was unable to be present. v Mr. Neil, state chemist, stated that the Board of Health had ordered parts to assemble a machine, but due to the war. production, it would be six months to a year before all of the parts could be procured. Through the facilities of the A S & R machine, operated by the state, at least two weekly checks will be made. When pll the parts of the state machine are available, it will be mounted on a truck, in a portable manner. A committee was appointed to designate the location for the machine. Records will continue to be made on the testing machine from the Farm Association, according to information given at the meeting. It thus appears, from present indications, that a lengthy and extended investigation will be made necessary, for the testing of the smoke. A number of residents have commented on the decrease in smoke during this spring. Government Seeks Additional Rags From Citizens A plea is again issued to Magna, Garfield, Hunter and Bacchus residents, by the government, for rags, states Mrs. B. E. Mix, salvage head. The armed forces and war pro- duction plants more-wipi- ng are demanding ciothsthanthe-in--dustr- y can provide. Due to the shortage of rag pickers and junk dealers in general, it has been found impossible to gather a sufficient supply of all types of rags to meet the increasing require- ments. The kind of rags are: Wiping rags, consist of lightweight rags of any construction that have an area of at least one square foot. Felt base floor coverings, there is a tremendous demand for felt base floor coverings and rugs. All tyes of rags can be used for this purpose. Roofing. The only type of roofing today in available quantities is asphalt. Roofing is needed not only for new war housing, industrial plants, and buildings for the Army and Navy, but also for repairs and replacements of exist- ing structures. Mattress cotton, burlap bags, hats, types of straight wool felt are most desirable; these products are used in tanks, military trucks and the manufacture of many other essential materials that are important in the war ef- fort Manila Rope and twine are used in the manufacture of electrical insulating papers, and other uses. Cotton rope and string are used in the manufacture of roofing felts and floor covering felts. Anyone having any of these types of rags may leave them at the Magna Lumber Sc Hardware Company store, where they will be sent to and used in the war effort. Magna Lieutenant Wounded in War Lieutenant Ellis B. Madsen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Delbert Madsen of Magna, has been reported wounded in action, according to word received by his parents, Sunday.
