D‘ODGED DUTY AFTER ‘ WAR, SAYSKIWANIAN TALKER Urging unity and complete co- operation in the days that lie ahead, Rev. Dwight C. Smith. pas- tor of United Churches in Olym- pia, told a Kiwanis club ladies night installation audience that this country doged its responsi- bilities after the last war and tempered its relations with other countries with poor judgment un- til now we are again faced squarely with war. Rev. Smith reviewed the trends which brought Hitler into power in Germany, intimating that Am— erica’s failure to enter the League of Nations foredoomed world democracy to failure and made a new war inevitable. Referring to Japan, he recalled unwise actions now coming home to roost how America and the Red Cross gave large sums Nippons after the 1923 earthquake but followed this with the immigration and citizenship restrictions on Orientals, permit— ted vast supplies, including scrap- iron now being shot back at us as ammunition, to go to Japan in our greed for gain, failed to act when Japan invaded Manchuria, even set up plants and supplied the tools and ammunitions with which Japan now menaces American possessions. Concluding, he pointed out that while fifth columnists hamper‘ work most damage was done by careless handling of domestic and foreign questions. To counteract l AreAssisting , National Defense Washington wineries and wine makers all over the nation are mobilizing their facilities to co—;. operate ill the fullest degree with: the current national defense pro-f gram, according to a recent an-i nouncement in Seattle by E. J. Wright, president of the Wash- ington Wine Council, state wine- makers' association. And to those who ask what part wine plays in the defense of a nation, according to Wright, the answer lies in a little-known product that is vital to the man- ufacture of, among other things, smokeless gunpowder—cream-of— tartar. And in addition, Wright added, the industry’s brandy dis— tilleries are prepared to produce ethyl alcohol~«a.vital item in the manufacture of explosives and other war supplies. “Wine is the sole source of cream-of-tartar," Wright ex- plains, “Up until two years ago virtually our entire supply of tartrates came from France, Spain and Italy. Since the out- break of war, these shipments have sharply declined. Argentina has been able to furnish a small amount to replace this loss, but the only other sources which have been developed to offset the shortage are the vineyards of Washington, California, New York and other wine producing states.” He explained that Washington’s industry, which this year will purchase more than 30,000,- 000 pounds of wine fruit, com- pared to 100,000 pounds in 1935, will play a major role in supply- ing these two vital materials for' national defense. Possibility that the wine in- dustry of Washington will utilize even more of Washington’s fruits was indicated by Wright, whenl he pointed out that Departmenti of Commerce reports national im- ports of foreign wines fell to a new low last year. "The wineries of Washington -and the nation are finding them- selves in a particularly favorablel position, both in this country and abroad. Wines from this coun- try are now marketed in 38 for— eign countries, with the promising prospects believed to exist in Cuba, Mexico and the countries of northern South Am-' erica,” Wright said. most HOSPITAL PATIENT Ivan Biehl, Rayonier employe. wasadmitted to Shelton hospital Tuesday for medical care.

Smith urged the nation to unite in a firm and forward lookillg army to fight enemies of democracy and urged every citizen to find a duty and perform it completely to end more quickly a cruel and bloody strife. New Kiwanis officers were seat- ed by Lieut. Gov. Martin Dawson of Elma, who set forth what is expected of those who lead Ki- wanis International, which is fur- hishing leadership in every defense movement. 1942 Kiwanis officers seated Were Robert H. Allan, president: S. B. Anderson, vice president; Homer Taylor, retiring president; M. C. Zintheo. secretary-treasur- er; and W. A. McKenzie, Roy Mc- Conkey, L. A. Carlson, E. B. Spring, W. O. Eckert, A. L. Bell and G. C. Angle, directors. Walter M. Elliott, toastmaster, recounted 1941 as a hectic year in Kiwanis but urged that not al-[ one committees but all members individually exert themselves to the utmost in 1942 to meet fully their obligations. Retiring President Taylor eX< pressed his appreciation for the cooperation during his adminis- tration and urged even greater support of the new president be- cause of the greater duties to per- form in the making of better leadership for tomorrow and to meet the after—war cllanges which would put all on the common level armers Pledge Food Needed Fori Victory In Wari .__.. MnN/Rfifl.‘ i Union Red Cross i Chariman Seeks l Comlnpnity Help Union, Jan. 7—As we crawl out from under trees, limbs and holi- day rush we want first of all to state that Nolan Mason, one of iMason County’s most active Red [Cross workers, is asking for help. 1We quote him “Our Red Cross War Relief Drive is on. The President has proclaimed fifty million as the objective. The quota [for Mason County is $2,000.00. It i is up to this district to do its part. lSome contributions have already come in by mail and by hand un- solicited which has given the idea that the drive should be conducted on the voluntary basis. This will relieve the‘ solicitors of having to canvass and make all feel they {are a part of the drive set up, so ]come on folks this is a real em- lergency. We are all in it so let’s [help as much as our strength and ‘finances will allow. Dig down deep ~and take or mail to any one of the solicitors who is most conven- licnt to you. Remember there is no personal glory in this job or recompense but there is a lot of satisfaction in knowing one has done his patriotic duty.

They had Secretary of Agriculture Claudel R. Wickard in Washington, D. C. In the nation’s capital, this state’s production will be added to that of all other states to af— 1 ford a picture of what American agriculture can supply in 1942. 'In‘ virtually every category of the vital war-time foods, Wash- ington farmers have indicated that production will be increased over yields in 1941, Ramsey points out. Farmers have indicated that with cow numbers expected to rise 17 per cent, milk production next year will climb 14 per cent above the amount put into the pails in 1941. The state’s egg production for next year is expected by the farmers to be 26 per cent above that of the present year. Other increases shown by the farmers include gains of 37 per cent in hogs marketed for slaugh— ter; 31 per cent in weening pigs sold for feeders, 11 per cent in beef cattle marketed, 9 per cent in chickens marketed, 33 per cent in turkeys marketed, 15 per cent in acreage of corn, 127 per cent in barley acreage, 56 per cent in oat acreage, 2 per co‘nt -in hay and pasture, 74 per cent in vege— tables for commercial sale and 14 per cent in rthe number of farm gardens.» Estimates show that total plantings of wheat are expected to decline some 27 per cent over 1941 totals. ,." The State Defense Board head emphasized that these figures are not based on estimates by “ex-I ports, or statisticians” but on ac- tual iintenfions to produce taken from the 70,000 farmers who were contacted in the Food for Freedom survey. These farmers have sign- ed pledges that their farms will produce the amount of food shown (luring 1942. Unemployment 1 Office Becomes Federal“ Agency Following the request of Presi- dent Roosevelt, the Washington State Employment Service has been transferred from state to federal control and in the future will be operated as a unit of the United States Employment Ser- vice. The change is effective Jan— uary 1. This was the 4 announcement made today by A. F. Hardy, Uni- ted States Employment Service Director for Washington. In mak- . ing the announcement, Mr. Hardy said that Mrs. Alice I. Helenius would continue as the manager of the Olympia office, located at 522 Capitol Way.

Mr. and Mrs. Harley Neldon and James Wright returned New Years from San Francisco where they were selling Christmas trees and report that in spite of the war their business was as usual. New Years Night, the Masonic Lodge held a regular meetin with new officers in the chairs. Howard Lockwood the new Mas- ter, Henry Hussman Senior War- den, Fred Sauers, Junior Warden, George Adams, Secretary and Er-' nest Carlson, treasurer. Allan Howard was given the first de- gree. At the closing of lodge a nice lunch was ,-~served by Roy Mitchell anduAl Martin, the sup- per committee. Mrs. Morgan, mother of Mrs. E. J. Dalby spent New Years with her daughter. The Dalby boys were all home for Christmas. Ed- win Jr. who is in the Navy was i only home for one day. Dave Dal- by has gone back to Camp 3 to work. Mrs. Al Martin has just re- turned from a few days visit in Portland with her daughter, Mar- lietta, who returned home with her and plans to work again in Bremerton. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Kent gave their annual New Years party last Saturday evening. For many years this has been a big feature ,as it brings together old friends lfrom Olympia and Tacoma. This year, due to the bad weather, there were not so many from abroad present, but several from here enjoyed the affair. Mrs. Kent was assisted by Mrs. Lillie Van Horn who has been her guest ’for a few days. Mr. and Mrs. I. P. Callison 'had a group of relatives and friends iwith them Saturday. About ten in their party had dinner at Rau’s that evening. On New Years Eve Rau’s was filled with a jolly crowd who were entertained with floor show, good ifood and even a black out as lights were out during the eve- ning for about two hours but with candles and pre—cooked food for those who were hungry, they 'managed very well.
