Tuscola Medical Society Approves Visit of Mobile Unit for Blood Donor Program Tuscola County Chapter of Red •ross has been asked to participate ;he Midwestern Area Office of Red Oross at St. Louis, Missouri. Red headquarters has invited the Tuscola County Chapter to cooper- ate with the "Detroit Blood Donor enter," which has been in opera- tion since November 24. Red Cross has been asked by the Army and Navy to secure, through volunteer donors, 200,000, units of >lood to be processed into dried plasma and used in our military centers and on our battleships. There are potential donors who would like to share in this very mportant activity in Tuscola Coun- y and plans are under way for a Mobile Unit to visit the county "rom the Detroit Center.. This unit onsists of a truck carrying all the try and arrange for the unit to be set up in Caro, Vassar and Cass City. This is a joint project of the American Red Cross and the Division of Medical Sciences of the National Research Council and is not to be confused with any former emporary blood center. Doctors of the Tuscola County Vfedical Association at a recent meeting approved this Mobile Unit oming into the county and will ooperate with the Red Cross and sought donors for the purpose of building up blood banks. In this instance, the Red Cross is respond- ing to the call of the Army and Navy to furnish the dried plasma which has become a necessity from the standpoint of saving life under the conditions of modem warfare. The use of this new substitute for whole blood transfusions has been demonstrated in saving of many lives during the Army maneuvers in the South this fall and in the saving of lives of several of our sailors who suffered during the at- tacks on our ships in the North Atlantic. It will constantly be used whenever the emergency arises.

Tuberculosis infection in cattle in Michigan is one of the lowest rates in the United States. The percentage of infestation has been 3elow one-half of one per cent for several .years. However, periodic tests are necessary to prevent spread of any localized infections which may be present. The 1940 census lists 39,237 head of cattle and calves over three tnonths of age on farms in Tuscola Bounty. Milch cows to the num- ber of 23,383 are listed.

Navy AnnouncesModification ofPhysical Standards

A relaxation of physical stand-ards for enlistments in the U. S.Navy and the Naval Reserve wasannounced this week by the NavyDepartment. In commenting onthis action, the Navy Departmentstated that numerous men who inthe past months have sought toenlist and have been rejected onthe basis of minor physical defectswill, because of the modification ofphysical standards, be encouraged,to re-apply for enlistment in eitherthe regular Navy or Naval Reservefor the duration of the emergency.

The Navy Department has re-quested that any person knowingof young men who had been barredfrom enlistment in the Navy andNaval Reserve because of minorphysical reasons should bring thismodification in physical require-ments to the attention of theseyoung men.

Applicants with varicose veinswill be acceptable under thechanged standards, this varicocelecondition to be corrected, if thecondition is painful, at the NavalTraining Stations to which the newrecruits are sent. Hydrocele, an-other defect that formerly ruled

out numerous applicants, will becorrected, if necessary, after en-listees arrive at Training Stations.Applicants suffering from herniawill be accepted provided their I.Q.'s are 75 or better. Recruitssuffering from hernia will be treat-ed at the- Training Stations andwill be enrolled for schooling dur-ing their periods of convalescence.

Other physical defects whichformerly prevented men from be-ing accepted as recruits, but whichnow are waived, are seasonal hayfever; correctible nasal deformitiesor nasal deformities of such a de-gree as not to interfere with duty;undernourished and underdevelopedapplicants, providing the conditionis not due to organic disease; andminor surgical defects which canbe corrected within a month. Ap-plicants who possess 18 natural•serviceable teeth, with at least twomolars in functional occlusion andnot more than four incisors miss-ing, will be acceptable. Dentaltreatment will be given at theTraining Stations.

Any applicant who has been re-jected because of any of the defectsnoted above is urged to re-applyfor enlistment in the Navy or Na-val Reserve immediately.

All applicants accepted with de-fects requiring correction will behospitalized. After correction ofthese defects recruits will be re-

turned to their Training Stationsat the earliest practicable time.

These modified physical stand-ards will apply for all applicantsfor enlistment in either the regularNavy and the Naval Reserve withthe exception of applicants for en-listment in classes for prospectivecommissioning.

A supply of free illustrated book-lets, "Life in the Navy," givingfull details about the opportunitiesfor men in the Navy or Naval Re-serve may be secured from theNavy editor of this newspaper.

Bleeding Canker DiseaseThe bleeding canker disease,

which appeared in New England 10years ago and makes trees ooze fromsmall fissures, is now being treat-ed by injections like those given toman and animals. A small hole isbored into the trunk, a rubber hoseinserted and connected with a slow-seeping bottle of organic chemicals.Some plant injuries blamed on in-sects, drouth, sun scorch, etc., haverecently been traced by Stone's suc-cessors at Massachusetts State col-lege to sulphur-dioxide leaks fromhousehold refrigerators and largerefrigerating plants.

ALL NOW STAND TOGETHER.The die is cast and the United

States is at war. It was not a warof our own choosing, but a tragedyforced upon us by the treacherousaction of the Axis-led Japanesewho, negotiating with us in a pur-ported effort of their own volitionto keep the peace, struck at Ameri-can defenses in the Pacific.

All past differences among theAmerican people have been for-gotten. There were disagreementsas to the proper foreign policy tobe pursued while there was stillhope and a chance that war mightbe avoided. But once the enemyhas struck his blow, all disagree-ments must and have been forgot-ten.

The historic words of Decaturare remembered that it is our coun-try right or wrong, still our coun-try. This, of all times, it can besaid that our country is right.Self defense is one of the first lawsof nature, with the nation as withthe individual. Treachery shouldalways be punished and this isdoubly true when the life or atleast the future independence of anation is at stake. We have beensucked into the maelstrom of worldwar now. There is no turningback, once this condition has oc-curred; it is impossible as well asunwise. The only thing to do nowis fight forward to victory. This isthe duty of every citizen, great orsmall. No matter how much ma-terial property one may possess,our lives are at stake and, what iseven more precious, our right toliberty and the pursuit of hap-piness. This is the right which weall possess.

No matter whether or not we areindividually beyond the high-meridian of life there is somethingeach of us may do. We can leavethis to the direction which maycome to us from above in the com-mon government, and to our con-science and our ability to renderservice.

There can be no backbiting, noregrets. The war can now not beavoided. It has come to us. Wehave accepted the challenge of theaxis powers by declaring war inturn because it was the only honor-able thing to do. But further thanthis it was the only possible thingto do.

Let us remember that now we areall Americans, equally interestedin the preservation of Americaninstitutions, keepers of the presentfor ourselves and of the future forour children and our children'schildren.—The Republic-Tribune.

Exchange of Letterson OccupationalDeferments

Tuscola County United StatesDefense Administration Board,through its chairman, John Reagh,addressed a letter recently to Lt.Col. I. D. Brent, state adviser ofoccupational deferments at Lan-sing. "The Tuscola board,'* theletter stated, "has been advisedthat you are not aware of anyshortage of experienced farm laborin Tuscola County. We submit toyou facts1 to substantiate our beliefthat there is a very, definite short-age of experienced farm labor inthis county."

In presenting reasons, Mr. Reaghcalled attention that defense in-dustries in Pontiac, Detroit, Mint,Saginaw and Bay City have drawnheavily on farm labor supply in thesouthern and western parts of thecounty; that the sugar beet indus-try requires much labor and ittakes 350 farmers to operate thesugar beet processing plant for a90-day period each year; that sev-eral hundred of the county's farmboys are already in the Army; thatfarmers are asked to increase dairyproduction by 4%, beef by 10%,poultry and eggs by 13%, and hogsby 10%; that to the shortage offarm labor was largely due the ex-tensive damage to the county's65,000-acre bean crop. Tuscola isone of the leading counties -in dairyproducts, poultry, sugar beets,beans and small grains. To main-tain not only present farm produc-tion, but to increase it, meant aneed for farm labor increase, theboard said.

In his reply, Lt. Col. I. D. Brentsaid in part:

"When we have no specific fac-tual information regarding theshortage of experienced farm la-bor on any particular farm.' in anyparticular county, we have no oth-er alternative but to state thatfact.

"Responsibility is entirely uponthe registrant and those interestedin him to furnish local boards withfull and complete information jus-tifying and confirming theirclaims.

"The regulations give localboards the privilege in cases of ap-peal, or otherwise, of forwardingto this office the folders of allregistrants who are appealing onoccupational grounds. We are dutybound to study each folder, con-sider each case on its individualmerits and facts, and reply withadvice to the local board. If thefolder does not contain clear-cut,definite information that the regis-trant is a 'necessary man' as out-lined in the regulations, we mustso advise the board. In studyingthese folders we look for evidencesof good or bad faith, from the sizeand condition and economic situa-tion-of each family group, the sizeand condition of the farm and thecrops, cattle, poultry, etc., thereon&nd from whether or not the farmis being operated on shares, or bytenants, whether it is a familysubsistence farm with or withoutsurpluses, and whether or not it isan agricultural enterprise withconsiderable surplus, and the kindan nature of such surpluses."

Knitting Drive OnFor Army and Navy

Red Cross Expects WomenTo Volunteer.

WASHINGTON. — A large-scaleRed Cross volunteer knitting pro-'gram, reminiscent -of World wardays, to provide sweaters for Amer-ican soldiers and sailors, waslaunched by Norman H. Davis,chairman of the American RedCross, in letters to the secretaries ofwar and navy. He said "more thana million women volunteers in RedCross chapters throughout the na-tion are eager to participate in theprogram."

The program is expected to pro-duce 500,000 sweaters, most of whichare to be given to hospitalized menand those garrisoned at island de-fense bases.

Mr. Davis also announced thatRed Cross kits, familiarly knownduring World war I as ditty bagsby sailors and comfort kits by sol-diers, will be produced by chaptervolunteers for service men in hos-pitals and at the island bases. Thekits, containing such accessories aswriting material, toilet articles,sewing kits and playing cards, willreach men at the bases as Christ-mas gifts, he said. ,

The chairman's letter to Henry L.Stimson, secretary of war, andFrank Knox, secretary of the navy,pointed out that these Red Cross giftsare not intended to meet the needsthat are the responsibility of thearmy and navy. These Red Crossgifts are "luxuries" which will re-mind the men of the "unfailing sup-port and interest of a grateful nationfor its men under arms," Mr. Davissaid.

Meanwhile, Mr. Davis announcedthat, in order to cheer up sick,wounded and convalescent Britishtroops in the Middle East, the RedCross is preparing to send 200 radiosand 3,000 small paper-bound novelsand mystery stories.

Naked Aborigines AttendSchool in Australia

ADELAIDE^ AUSTRALIA.—Awayup in the far corner of South Aus-tralia is one of the world's strangestschools.

Its pupils are members of thePitjantjara tribe of aborigines. Theywear no clothes and they come orstay away as they please. Theschool is not yet a year old, but ithas 100 children on the roll aifd theaverage attendance is 40.

All instruction is given in the na-tive language, but reading, writingand arithmetic form part of the cur-riculum. School opens each daywith a communal talk .during whichthe children are thoroughly bathedand dried.

After school the children return totheir parents, who live the life ofthe true Myall native, eating whatthe bush affords and sleeping underthe stars between two fires.

"For the most part the childrenare fair-haired, some golden, otherseven snowy," says their only teach-er. "Brown-skinned and healthy,,they are free from any disease.They have attractive features, arequick-witted, sensitive, well-man-nered, affectionate and easy to con-trol. *

"Drawing is their favorite subjectand singing comes second. With noappreciable previous experience ofmusic, they now sing in two or threeparts, and all seem to have a per-fect ear."

British Peer and WifeAdvertise for Employment

LONDON. — The following ap-peared in the personal column of theTimes:

Desire suit-able employment together with ac-commodations; no salary. Londonor near South or Southwest Englandpreferred."

The advertisement gave a Timesbox number for answers of pro-spective employers.

Boom in Sales of FarmsBorn of Defense ProgramWASHINGTON.—A boom in the

sales of farms—the first in about 20years—was attributed by govern-ment officials to the national defenseand British-aid programs.

The rise in value of farm landsand rapid sales of these propertiesalready has caused anxiety amongsome who remember the World warboom and crash. Government lead-ers have urged lenders who servefarmers to go easy on credit exten-sions and have suggested that farm-ers, traditionally burdened by mort-gages, devote additional income torepayment of debts.

Swiss Trains to CarryWounded War Prisoners

BERN. — A tentative agreementhas been reached by which Switz-erland will act as a transport inter-mediary for the exchange of wound-ed German and British war prison-ers.

Under the plan the Swiss are toprovide a hospital train with doctorsand nurses. They will take theBritish to English channel ports,where the German wounded will bereceived.

Yule Tree PerilEasily Reduced

How .to restrain the needle-dropping on Michigan's million in-door Christmas trees and at thesame time keep these trees frombecoming fire hazards in homes,schools, stores and churches in-volves the use of water, chemicalsor even paint sprays.

'Some of the technique suggestedby A. J. Panshin, associate profes-sor of forestry at Michigan StateCollege, ranges from the use of abucket of moistened sand to chemi-cals: in solution. If the weather isnot unusually warm and if treeshave been cut within a month ofthe holiday, trees should respond tothe extra care.

Here is the chemical solutiondescribed by Professor Panshin:Six grams of malic acid, five gramsof citric acid and 15 grams of cal-cium carbonate are dissolved inthree quarts of water. The baseof the tree stands in this solutionand water is added as the solutionis used by the tree.

Tests by the United States For-est Service indicate Christmas treesretain their needles about twoweeks if they stand in water. Justbefore the tree is placed in thecontainer, the stem or large endshould be sawed off an inch or twofrom the end, preferably at anangle or in a V shape. This givesthe water free acess to the freshwood.

Christmas trees can be madenearly fireproof. The process isrecommended where the risk mightbe great in using the tree forschool or church programs. Ac-cording to Professor Panshin, thesecret is to replace as much of themoisture as possible with an ab-sorbed chemical. The chemical isammonium sulphate, obtained fromstores that sell fertilizers.

The weight of the tree in poundsis divided by four. This amountof the ammonium sulphate isplaced in a jar, crock or pail anddissolved in water, using one andone-half pints for each pound ofsulphate. The tree is placed withthe stem end in the solution and letstand in a cool place not in directsunlight until most of the solutionis absorbed.

Lansing—Remember Pearl Har-bor!

This cry is echoed throughoutMichigan today. Vanished are theardent debates about isolationism•and interventionism. Gone are thepartisan activities for immediate

r gains1 at the expense of the admin-istration. Forgotten for the mo-ment are the bickerings of laborleaders for jurisdictional controland closed shop benefits.

Something has happened inMichigan. It represents one of themost complete overnight changes

, in citizen attitudes this state has(experienced in half a century.j The suddenness of the treach-erous Japanese' attack on American,territory, while Japanese envoyswere receiving our hospitality inpresumed efforts to preserve thepeace, came as a great shock toMichigan citizens. Those who hadscoffed at the prospect of invasion—who had decried civilian defenseactivity as war-mongering—wereamong the first to raise their voicesin demands for greater action, orin criticism at apparent unpre-paredness 'and laxity.

Special SessionBecause of mounting needs' for

money, observers here are fore-casting that the governor will calla special session of the state legis-lature early in 1942.

At the first war-time session ofthe state administrative board, na-tional defense needs in Michiganwere xliscussed. State troops, or-ganized to replace national guardunits, number 3,200 men. Thesewill probably be increased at onceto 4,160 and later on to 7,500, thefull strength point for the guardunits they will replace.

State prison industries have beenassigned the job of turning outneeded military clothing. It wasdiscovered that Michigan could noteven assign 1,000 men to winterpatrol duty except in their owncivilian overcoats to keep themfarm.

The daily maintenance cost ofstate troopers will be $4.50 to $5—an inkling of the coming cost tothe state treasury if Michigan iscalled upon to use the home guardduring the war.

Police ArmyCivilian defense machinery is

(now going at high speed, thanks toI preliminary organization under-taken by the state and countycouncils of defense in cooperationwith the federal government.

Heading the volunteer units arethe experienced technicians of theMichigan State Police, countysheriffs and deputies, and city po-lice—a trained force of 7,100 men.The state defense council, clearingorders received from Washington,has asked local police chiefs to re-

jcruit auxiliary volunteers at once.'It is expected that the combinedstrength of full-time and volunteerpolice guards will eventually ap-proximate 30,000.

Experiences of England, for ex-ample, are being utilized by Capt.Donald S. Leonard of the MichiganState. Police, president of the In-ternational Association of Chiefsof Police, who recently returned

(Fire PerilAside from the possible damage

to defense industries through fire,a peril which is admittedly great,defense authorities do not foreseeany immediate need for safeguardsagainst air incendiary raids.

Yet, as a matter of precaution—a step which Pacific Coast statesare taking belatedly—schools forvolunteer firemen are -,to be es-tablished at once. Attention willbe given to the ackowledged perilof industrial incendiary attacks—isolated fires or a chain of isolatedfires which could become a disas-trous conflagration under favorablecircumstances.

Responsibility for conductingthese schools in each communityrests on local officials—again, ahome obligation.

First Aidj As modern war is all-out involv-ing civilians as well as the military,the importance of first aid andother protective services is being

, emphasized.' Volunteer nurses are wanted.• Volunteer first aid crews are need-ed. Volunteer bandages and other

I equipment are needed.j Without hysterics, but with quiet'thoroughness, local units of theI Red Cross are expected to mobolizeand train human resources in everycommunity.

"It can happen here" is the slo-gan. And if it does happen here,we must be prepared for any con-tingency.

SacrificesSince the home front requires 16

to 17 trained persons for every manat the military front, Michigan hasa definite responsibility and obli-gation.

Instead of momentary flag-waving, defense officials foreseecontinuous hard work, continuous

| sacrifice. A long, hard war is inj prospect. Many sacrifices must bej made. Strength of the enemy| must not be underestimated—a' mistake made by the English andI even by the Germans in the recent•.Russian campaign.

Taking a view that years of sac-rifice are ahead for all of us, whatthen should each person do? Wesuggest that you apply to the of-ficial defense authorities in yourcommunity. Then await orders.

Farmers should overhaul theirfarm equipment. Cooperative useof machinery and perhaps laborcan also be studied.

Michigan will remember PearlHarbor next month, next year, andyears to come.

S. shipsseverely damaged and a large num-ber of planes put out of commis-sion.

Stating that "always will weremember the character of the on-slaught against us," the Presidentasked Congress to declare a stateof war exists between the U. S. andthe Japanese Empire. FollowingCongress's affirmative action, Ger-many and Italy—in accordancewith their agreement with-Japan—declared war on the United States.Almost immediately Congress de-clared war on the European mem-bers of the Axis.

Addressing the nation by radio,the President said "it will not onlybe a long war, it will be a hardwar. . . Not only must the shameof Japanese treachery be wipedout, but the sources of internation-al brutality, wherever they exist,must be absolutely and finallybroken. . . with confidence in ourarmed forces—with the unboundingdetermination of our people—wewill gain the inevitable triumph. . .We will win the war and we aregoing to win the peace that fol-lows. . ."

Army and Navy ActionThe President announced he had

instructed the Army and Navy totake all steps necessary to U. S.defense. The War and Navy De-partment .announced that the Armyand Navy had beaten off attemptedJapanese troop landings in thePhilippines, sunk a 29,000-ton Jap-anese battleship, a cruiser and adestroyer, scored hits on the battle-ship KONGO; that Marine gar-risons at Midway and Wake wereholding out; that Navy SecretaryKnox had flown to Hawaii.

Both the Army and Navy an-nounced volunteer enlistments at arecord level. The War Depart-ment asked Congress for legisla-tion to register all men 18 to 64years old and to permit use of men18 to 45 for military service. Se-lective Service Director Hersheysaid it may be possible to raise thenumber of selectees in service fromthe present 800,000 to about 3,000,-000 without using other than the21-28 age groups. If Congress ap-proves the induction of those from28 to 35, now registered but de-ferred, another 1,000,000. might beraised, Gen. Hershey said. SSnational headquarters directed alllocal boards to reclassify ex-Ser-vice men who have been deferredbecause of prior service.

Congress passed legislation re-moving the ban on U. S. Army menfrom serving outside the hemis-phere. Congress also granted theArmy and Navy permission to holdenlisted men for the duration.

the U. S. and Japan could be pushedinto war, that such a conflict wouldput an end to the Lend-Lease pro-gram." Germany and Japan, thePresident said, "are conducting

j their military and naval operationsin accordance with a joint plan. . .The American people must realizeit can be matched only with similargrand strategy. . ."

Direc-tor Odium of the OPM ContractDistribution Division, speaking inNew York, said war productionwill double in 1942. Civilian Sup-ply Director Henderson cut autoproduction to 60 per cent of De-cember last year.

The President invited industryand labor leaders to meet in Wash-ington December 17 to reach anagreement to prevent labor dis-putes.

ference the very great shortage ofmost metals will necessitate use inwar production of at least 50 percent of the metals now going intocivilian use. The Secretary of Ag-riculture issued a statement "weenter this struggle with greaterreserves of food, feed and fiberthan at any other time in our his-tory." '

OPM Priorities Director Nelsonprohibited sale of new auto tiresfrom December 11 to December 22to stop a "buying wave" whichstarted after Japan's attack.

Hen Houses HoldEither 30 or 300

Streamline farm poultry flocksafter determining whether thefamily wants sufficient eggs and abird to eat occasionally or whetherthe flock ought to produce thatmuch plus at least two cases ofmarketable eggs weekly. x

That is the suggestion of twomen at Michigan State College, whohave collaborated in preparing anew bulletin titled "Laying Housesfor Michigan." It is ExtensionBulletin 233.

The bulletin is complete with pic-tures, diagrams and even bills ofmaterial listing what is necessary

i in constructing four sizes of layinghouses and 'also materials neces-sary for roosts, nests and movableperches and dropping boards.

First decide whether the flock isto supply the family or is to pro-duce an' accessory income, says: J.M. Moore of the college poultrydepartment and A. J. Bell of theagricultural engineering depart-ment.

"The average hen today in acommercial farm flock lays four

[dozen more eggs than the averagehen of 20 years ago," the authorspoint out. "The person who plansto build a laying house should an-swer first the question of whetherthe flock is to supply only the fam-ily needs pr is to provide a portionof the farm income."

Moore and Bell recommendproperly constructed housing forfrom 30 to 60 laying hens if theneed is only for home use of eggsand an occasional Sunday dinner of

I chicken. For the flock that mustproduce an income, the birds cannumber between 200 and 400 lay-ers.

Poultry houses described inplans and materials include the 24by 24 foot strawloft house, thetwo-story laminated rafter houseand two 20 by 20 foot shed typehouses.

"It's about t ime MUA. f a m i l yo r d e r e d a 1 E I E P H O N I "

"Just think, for years this familythought that their home was modemin every respect — why they didn'teven have a telephone! I never couldunderstand it. I intended to leavethem a note this year to tell them justwhat they were missing. I don't haveto now, for they've finally ordered a

Telephone — and not only that, theyhave included extensions for the base-ment and upstairs. I'm glad, for fromnow on their home will really bemodern. What about your home?Surprise the family with a telephonefor Christmas or an extension if youhave service."

Purling Taughtin 20 Counties

Cass City, Michigan.

, Another art that grandmotherprized is being revived in Michiganas the click of knitting needles istaken up by special home eco-nomics classes organized in 20counties in the state. The womenare members: of projects groupsorganized by the Michigan StateCollege home economics extensionservice.

"We aim ,to teach the women notonly how to knit but how to followand interpret instructions," saysMarjorie Eastman, college special-ist in clothing.

Sweaters and sox, scarves ormittens all come under the instruc-tions. How to "turn the heel," to"toe off" or the intricasies of thespiral "beanie"—a favorite headgear with Miss Teen Age—are nolonger a mystery to these exten-sion members.

The fashion for knitted garmentsas well as needs of the Red Crosshave led to the flood of requeststhat have been received.

In Gratiot County the chairmanof Red Cross brought samples ofgarments to the leaders' meeting.At least 500 women are enthu-siastically learning the knit andpurl formula from their leaders inthis county alone.

Home demonstration agents andclothing specialists are assisting indirecting the project, new to ex-tension, in teaching the funda-mentals of knitting, and how to putit to a practical use for home orcommunity needs.

The district Red Cross1 office sup-plied directions for use of extensionmembers so that right in their owncommunities the home economicswomen may learn correct methodsof knitting. The live-at-home ormake~it-yourself program on Mich-igan farms has another boost inthis program of home knitted gar-ments.
