S. navy Is counting on rockets to provide much of the punch to knock out both Nazis and Japs, Capt. G. D. Linke, navy bureau of ordnance, told the reconversion congress of Ameri- can industry. Linke revealed that the navy laid down its first rocket barrage at Tarawa, and that since that time rockets have sharply reduced casualties during amphibious landings by reducing beach defenses to rubble. The navy also uses them to supply the initial impetus for planes to take off with heavy loads on short landing strips, he said. Linkes remarks came as the reconversion congress the 49th annual meeting of the National Association of Manufacturers turned its attention to discussions of postwar industry. Industry plans a quick reconversion when the government gives the signal. William P. Witherow, president, Blaw-Kno- x company, Pittsburgh, said that 49 per cent of industry will be able to swing over into full production the day the government gives a green light and that an additional 27 per cent will be able to resume civilian output within four weeks. He said 95 per cent of all industry can complete reconversion within eight weeks and 76 per cent of the firms can reach peak production in that period. Dr. Gustav Egloff, Universal Oil Products company of Chicago, discussing prospective developments said: , "Postwar dwellings will hardly seem real when compared with our present homes. "Developments in synthetic textiles are likely to overshadow or outmode the products of the silkworm," he added, saying that textiles are now being woven from rayon, nylon, rubber, spun glass, woods from wood and soybeans, ' metais. fibers fr- casf : SALT LAKE CITY Utah again topped the nation in percentage of successful deer hunters, according to the results of a survey just completed by John Mooney, sports editor of the Salt Lake Telegram. Analyzing reports submitted by 12 of the nations leading deer producing states, Mooney found that Utah ranks no worse than third in the percentage of deer killed and tops the nation in the percentage of bucks killed. Figures released by the Utah fish and game commission show that 64,672 Utah hunters killed 51,777 deer in 1944. 40,743 hunters killed their buck, for a kill percentage of 62.99 per cent for all buying licenses, and in addition, 16,320 antlerless deer licenses were sold, with 11.034 hornless deer killed for a percentage of 67.61 per cent The two states heading Utah ?n were Wisconsin kill percentages and Minnesota, both of which allow the killing of either sex on the big game license. In Wisconsin. 150,805 hunters killed 128,296 deer, but of that total 62,044 were hornless deer. 104,801 Minnesotas hunters killed 67,182 deer, but again, almost 50 per cent of the kill was hornless deer, which Utah doesnt figure in its table of kills. The average percentage of buck kill in Utah last fall was higher within doe hunting areas than outside, a fact which hardly supports fears that antlerless deer hunting wouild soon ruin buck, hunting. Such is the chief observation of R. L. Turpin, big game supervisor, in his memorandum to the Utah Fish and Game Commission and Board of Big Game Control concerning the 1944 deer kill summary. Turpin pointed out that success ratios have continued to hold up through several years of doe hunting whereas several years ago predictions were rife that two years of doe hunting in Utah would wipe out the herd. Considering that many big game authorities contend good management requires 25 deer on the range for every buck harvested, Turpins following statement is significant, too: A review of kill records, for the past few years indicates that our present deer herds will supply about 40,000 bucks for hunters, and kills in addition to this figure come from antlerless deer. . It is also noted, Turpin added, that as doe hunting has been decreased during the past three years, there has been a slight increase in bucks killed. Wether or not this is an indication that most hunters want only one deer is not known, but it is believed probable. i BUY MORE TIIAIi BEFORE v'- BERN MEAT CURING PLANT Prepared to Handle Meats, from now until later part of June.

No Need for Pessimism About Food Supply I hope no one will be misled about the food situation, says War Food Adminstrator Marvin Jones. No one has gone hungry in this country. No one is going hungry. In 1943 the American farmers produced 32 per cent more food than this or any other nation ever produced before the war. In 1944 they upped this by 5 per cent, making a record increase of 37 percent above prewar production. This record was made in spite of the handicaps of war. This year the farmers themselves set goals that call for an even greater acreage. Our armed forces will continue to be well-feWe will continue to help our fighting allies. Our own people will continue to have plenty of good, wholesome food, and we will contribute our share to the relief of starving people, even if it means a new hitch in our belts. This is a practical matter and a part of the war itself. Anyone whe sells the American farmer short, makes a mistake. d. i 5 Mile too!
