April 20_ The fields they try to cultivate are very rocky. They say they have been taking rocks out of these fields for hundreds of years, yet it still doesn’t look as. if they have accomplished anything. Practically all the houses and surrounding fences are of rock. The farming here is quite a. bit different from our country. It is very seldom you see a team of horses doing any plowing, and it is surprising as everyone seems to take great pride in owning a nice horse and the horses are all beautiful animals. Even the slow going draft horses have a prance- I imagine they all have a strain of Arabian blood. It seems that most of the plowing is done Wlth mules and camels.

Hansen were guests of the Kiwanis Club and Mr. Hansen, who is Chief Machinists Mate, U.S.N., with more than 20 years of active ser- vice and plenty of hot recent ex- periences to show for his many stripes and Cross of Honor, re- told the story of the Pearl Har- bor\attack with some more inti- mate details which are even yet more or less “off the record” and await the full after—war story. Mrs. Hazel Hansen is enjoying his brief furlough in Shelton after being separated from her hus- band since shortly after Pearl Harbor. His more recent experiences were on a destroyer, one of the U.—S. fleet which battled the Japs in the Aleutian waters in April, and while his ship escaped with minor hits its guns accounted for two of the‘ enemy battleships in long range firing. Not Yet Public The details of.this fight have not yet appeared in print, but it is apparently a major effort to take over the Aleutians, and we are hearing now of the wiping out of the Japs on Attu Island and of the constant bombarding of Kiska, proving that the enemy is well entrenched and will make a desparate stand before being wiped out of that part of the (Continued on Page Two) Warren Knutzen Baby Passes In Bellingham William Theodore Knutzen, 6- months-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Warren Knutzen, former Shelton residents, passed away at the family home at '1404 East Sun— set Drive, Bellingham, Monday.

Tall Concrete Stack Building At MCCleary The Simpson Logging. Com- pany is having built at its Mc- Cleary plant a 230—foot con- crete stack, the size of its taller stack in Shelton, in connection with the rebuilding of its steam power plant at McCleary. The stack is going up at the rate of twenty feet a week, is now up to 120 feet, and the Simpson Company with the Washington State Guard Re- serve, offers prizes of $60 first, $25 second and $15 third, in bonds or stamps to the winner who guesses the nearest to the exact time of the completion, with tickets sold in the derby to help the purchase of uni- forms for the Guard. Fire Closures Due to military necessity, fire closures announced two weeks ago are now in effect and are, being ,rigidly enforced, District Fire Warden George Frisk warned Ma- son county residents this week. These closures must be observ- ed Frisk stated, and added that a close watch is being kept thru- out the county for violations. Frisk also stated that a highly trained and equipped crew of fire chasers is now stationed at cru— cial spots in the county, five men being at Allyn, 10 men at Matlock and 10 men at Shelton. Until serious fire weather de— velops, these crews will be en- gaged in mainteance of existing forest roads, trails, lookouts and telephone lines. Maintenance will receive first priority, and, if weather condi- tions warrant, an extensive con- struction program will follow. I I I Secured For CGA Dance Advance ticket sales indicate a record breaking crowd at the Coast scheduled for Saturday, June 19 at the new gymnasium, it was reported this week. Public inter- est in the affair has been aroused to an unprecedented extent by the fine program of dancing and en- tertainment in store. The organization has been for- tunate. in being able to secure one of Seattle’s top quality orches- tras “The Downbeaters” for the occasion, as it is extremely diffi- cult during these days of gas ra- tioning to get a band to travel this far. to the top-ranking officers of the Coast Guard and the Coast Guard Auxiliary in the Thirteenth Naval District, and it is also expected that a contingent of SPARS from Seattle will attend the (2121an as guests of the Auxiliary. Intermission Program Special acts for the intermis- sion program have been promised by Lt. (j.g.) T. J. Firth, Cap- tain of the Port of Tacoma, to be made up of talented individuals from the ranks of the regular Coast Guard. Decoration plans for the hall are under the direction of a com- mittee named last Monday by Dance Chairman Dick Watson, composed of John Bennett as chairman, Hal Briggs, Roy Peach- er and Jim Amunds. In cooperation with the regular law enforcement agencies a squad of Shore Police has been named by the chairman to see that order and harmony prevails throughout the dance. This group is headed by Jim Pauley and includes Dick Kieburtz, R. B. Dickey, Les Chase, W. N. Etherton, Frank Pauley, George Cooper and Milt Clothier. Shelton Man Ala—i .

Clothier Is Named To Be CGA Fire Chief Shelton has a new fire chief this week, but the present chief Dean Carmen won’t lose any sleep over the fact, for the new fire chaser is chief of the Coast Guard Auxiliary’s fire depart- ment. In order to make for a more efficient operation of the Aux- iliary’s newly acquired fire barge, Commander Roy Kimbel, Monday evening appointed Milt Clothier chief to handle instruc- tion of the Coast Guard mem- bers and to work out an effici- ent program for handling the boat in case of fire. In cooperation with Sheiton’s Fire Chief Dean Cannon, Clo- thier will also develop a sys- tem of alarm calls so that Coast Guard memers will know when a fire- breaks out On the waterfront where the barge will be of use. I I I I l I I I, I I Rayonier Machine ShOp Gets Praise Admiral Emery S. Lund, Chair- man of the Maritime Commission, in a letter addressed to Pacific Pulp & Paper Industry, trade magazine, praises the vital war work done in the machine shops of 26 affiliated pulp and paper mills of the three Pacific Coast states during the past year. His letter, published in the an- nual review number of the mag- azine, said: “It is with full know- ledge of the important part being taken in the country’s war pro- gram by the pulp and paper in- dustry of the Pacific Coast that we of the Maritime Commission salute it.” He praised the mills for “ra- pidly converting their shops” to producing and finishing vital ma- chinery parts for Liberty ships, tankers, as well as for aircraft carriers, destroyers and other fighting ships and for “maintain- ing a flow of much-needed pro- ducts.” “Without the zeal and industry displayed by these workers,” Ad- miral Land said, “the record- breaking number of ships now be- ing launched from our yards . . . would not be possible.” Shelton Area Survey Told Five potential sites for new in- dustrial enterprises are disclosed in a survey of the Shelton area made public yesterday by Paul J. Raver, Bonneville Power ad- ministrator. The survey is the ninth of a series being prepared by the administration’s market development section to supply in- formation needed for the econom- ical development of new industries in the Pacific Northwest, Raver explained and was published in the Seattle papers. .The five sites mapped range in Size from to 165 acres. Raver said many additional areas are available, both on tidewater and inland. The survey covers geography, population, resources, local indus- tries, transportation, power and labor in the area, which is de- scribed as one of the most im- portant logging communities in the Puget Sound district. It is pointed out that the city is close to critical mineral depostis ,now being developed on the Olympic peninsula. \ \ GRIP LOST Anyone finding a black grip with clothing in it is‘asked to contact the Journal office.

I I I Cascara Bill Will Protect Crop Future Of special interest to Cascara bark peelers in Senate Bill No. 164 enacted at the 28th regular session of the State Legislature and containing provisions regulat- ing the manner in which Cascara may be taken from the forests. The present high price of Cas- cara bark has caused a destruc- tive peeling of the bark in a manner which will result in the virtual extinction of the Cascara tree, and the vanishing of an in- dustry which, with reasonable care, may come to be a perma- nent one. District Fire Warden George Frisk pointed out yesterday that if trees are properly out they will send up many new shoots, cheat-t ing an increase in the amount of Cascara bark available. Thus na- ture will tend to build up the source of the bark if not llam- pered. Provisions Printed Provisions of the Cascara bill are reprinted here for the infor- mation of those engaged in the business. Section 1. It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corpora- tion to cut, peel, sell, snip or otherwise dispose of any cascara bark unless the person, firm or corporation cutting the same shall Secure a written permit from the legal owner of the land upon which such cascara bark is cut (Continued from Page one) Only Two At G A R State Convention S.

Gale said the department’s last year membership of 18 had dwind- led to 12 and two of these had Ready Soon For ‘A’ Books Plans to renew motorists “A” gasoline coupon books by mail under the streamlined renewal plan recently announced by the OPA beginning June 22 have been completed by the Mason County War Price and Rationing Board, Henry Newmark, chairman, an- nounced today. He coupled this announcement with a request that car owners file their applications as soon as possible so that the Board may process them and mail out all new books before the present “A” rations expire July 21. The mail renewal plan, which also includes renewals of the basic “D” motorcycle rations, eliminates the school house registration that was necessary when basic rations were issued last autumn. To get his new “A” or “D” books a car and motorcycle owner needs take only the following simple steps: 1. Pick up an application form at service stations or at the Ra- tion Board office. The forms will be available at these places begin- ning June 22. Fill Out Form 2. Fill out the form and mai it to the War Price and Rationin; Board together with (a) the bacl cover of the present “A” or “D‘ book (properly filled out), and (b) the current tire inspection re- cord showing that proper inspec- tions have been made. “With volunteer help now being enlisted the Board will begin pro- cessing the applications as soon as they start coming in,” Mr. New— mark said. “New ration books will be mailed back as soon as they are ready. Every effort will be made to have new books in the hands of all car and motorcycle owners by July 21, when their present books expire. But this can be assured only if motorists and motorcycle owners cooperate by getting their application forms as soon as possible and filing them promptly." The new application forms, like those used last year, will have a tire inspection record attached, Mrs. Newmark pointed out. In filling out the form, applicants (Continued on page eight) Garden Meetings , Are Scheduled Insect pests are a bugaboo for most victory gardeners. This mat- ter of pest control is not diffi- cult if one understands the con- trol measures states County Agent Okerstrom. To put dust on the foliage of the plants to control root maggot is entirely useless and is a waste of insecticides. In order to explain insect con- trol problems to home gardeners two local meetings have been ar- ranged. The first meeting will be held Friday afternoon, June 11, at 2 p. m. at the Fred Diehl home on Harvard St. The second meeting will be Monday, June 14th, 2 p. m. at the Runacres gardens near the highway and just across the street from the George Drake residence. Everyone who has insect prob- lems is invited to attend one of these meetings. WPB Lifts Ban On Cuffs For Trousers WPB listed all restrictions on the finishing of men’s and boys' wool trousers in effect permitting sale of trousers either with or without simulated cuffs. Limita- ' tions on trouser lengths continue unchanged, making full cuffs the exception rather than the rule. The new order allows average turn-up of only three inches of material—enough for a simulated cuff, but that is all.
