Miss Gladys McDowell and Mrs. Mazie Abrams were the two persons doing a “bit” of modeling in the show window last week, which result ed in them getting the ice cream. This week our first description is of a lady, and I don’t think she will mind me saying that she is rather stout, because she just wouldn’t be herself if she were not. She was in the Sun office Tuesday morning kid ding your scribe about not ever giv ing her the ice cream. She was wear ing a black dress, black shoes, blue coat, red scarf and a red turban. Our second description is of a lady seen in a department store Tuesday morning opening some V-mail sta tionary that had just arrived. She was dressed in a blue corduro one- piece dress, she has blue eyes and light brown hair. If either of the above descriptions could be you, come by the Sun office and receive your ticket which entitles you to a quart of ice cream from Stokes’ Drug Store, compliments of Stokes’ and the Sun.

Byrnes, declaring that “we must now take the profits out of war,” spoke up tonight for compulsory savings and in support of Idle $25,000 ceiling imposed on salaries. He said, too, that it was clear that “many more commodities” must be rationed. He did not name any, however. In an address prepared for the New York Herald Tribune forum, Byrnes spoke reassuringly of civilian restrictions and war-time controls, saying they were intended to help the average persons to obtain more goods than he could otherwise and to buy wlHat he needs at a price low er than he would pay otherwise. “In wartime,’’ he remarked, “price controls, wage controls and rationing controls are not ingenious devices to punish people and to make the grim business of war grimmer than it need be. They are measures design ed to help our war effort and to re duce the hardships of war, particu larly on the family in modest cir cumstances. “By and large, the average citizen Has less to fear from price, wage and rationing controls than he has from their absence.” Contending that excess purchasing power must be siphoned off, the economic stabilization .program said this could be done by taxation and by }“an equitably devised plan of com- ' pulsory savings.” The savings, he explained, would be returned to the people after the war, over a period of years, and then they would have money to spend to create markets for peacetime prod ucts and to provide employment. This step, he said, might prevent a business depression. If one came anyway* savings would enable many to escape want and suffering. Byrnes said he disagreed with some persons who believed that lim itations on salaries in higher brack ets were in the nature of social re forms imposed under thie guise of war needs. “When men of enterprise are fight ing on the desert sands,” he said, “men of enterprise at home should not object to sharing the burdens of war.” The $25,000 limit on salaries, after payment of taxes and certain deduc tions are allowed. Byrnes said, would effect only 3,000 persons in 1942. He said he would object to its continuance after the war, but point ed out that the law under which the limit was imposed expires June 30, 1944, and can be continued only by congress. While he .pointed to prospects of additional hardships, Byrnes said that no matter what America had to endure, it still was and probably would remain the best-fed, best- clothed and best-sheltered nation on earth. Fifty-one white men from the two local Selective Service Boards left Newberry this morning (Thursday) for induction at Fort Jackson. Frank Sanders acted as leader for Board 58 and Kenneth Long was leader for Board 59. RETURNS HOME H. M.
