HUNDREDS OF BRITONS SLAIN BY 13 1-2 TON HUN ROCKETS London, Mar. 16—Mammoth rock ets—larger than the new RAF 11- ton superbomb—have killed hundreds ol' persons in recent attacks against London and Southern England, it may now be revealed. The V-2 rocket, which descends from a height of 70 miles traveling faster than sound weighs approxi mately 13 and one half tons. It is 46 feet long—nearly twice the length o fthe RAF bomb. The rocket is five 1 and one half feet in diameter and has a sharply pointed nose in which one ton of explosive is carried alone. After nearly five months of inter mittent attack reviaed censorship rules today permitted correspond ents to specify that London was the target of Hitler’s V-2 bomb. Previously, the general term “sou thern England” was required. They have given London its third war ordeal. Its first bloodbath was the blitz of 1940-41. Then came the flying bomb offensive of last summer. The number of rockets which have fallen in the metropolitan area and the specific places damaged or destroyed remain a tight secret. Flying bombs gave Britons a few seconds’ warning in which to dive for safety. The rockets give no warning. Anyone standing within the area of its explosive force is struck down—never knowing what hit him. The first rockets to fall in the city were called “flying gas men.” Londoners were mystified by a strange double explosions many be lieving two rockets were falling simultaneously. However, scientists explained the phenomenon. They said the first loud explosion occurs when the stratospheric mis sile hits the atmosphere and the second when the rocket strikes the earth. A rocket explosion can be heard over almost the entire Lon don area. Some of the missies have left a sickening mass of broken bodies, smashed buildings and shattered glass- „ . But the full story of civilian casualties cause by Hitler’s terror weapon cannot be told now. SEED POTATOES We still have a limited stock of both Maine grown Early Bliss and Cobbler potatoes.

PEOPLE MUST TIGHTEN BELTS—FDR Washington, March 16—President Roosevelt stepped into the inter agency controversy over division of dwindling food stocks today with the assertion we will have to eat less to help fee starving Europe. The American people will have to tighten their belts, he told a news conference in outlining what he termed administration policy on who is to get what from domestic sup plies. The people in this country have not suffered very greatly compared with some others, he said, adding t. iy are not going to suffer. Asserting the war is not won yet, the chief executive said he believed the country will back up the idea of keeping people ali ve abroad by rationing existing food restrictions at home and adding others. Thus he apparently sided with those in his aministration who have opposed a War Food adminis tration proposal that some commit ments made for lend-lease and foreign relief be reduced drastically an that military demands also be trimmed for the April-June quarter to allow civilian supplies to be main- tined near present levels. Replreisentatives of the War de partment and agencies representing lend-lease and foreign relief have resisted the WFA idea. A week ago War Mobilization Director James F. Byrnes turned the whole matter over to a seven-man government committee headed by Leo T. Crow ley, foreign economic administrator. The President had Byrnes’ an nouncement before him today when he began his food discussion. He said the reason for the committee was largely food, but not entirely so. The group, he added, will act as a clearing house. Taking issue with critics, the Presiednt used sugar as an example. Suppose this commodity was short —although he said it isn’t—and American consumption was cut 10 per cent. He contended the people here would still live, while sharing with those who need it more abroad. Some need it more than we do, he said, citing what he called mal nutrition in Holland. Sugar, meat butter and other fats are among the commodities for which demand exceeds prospective supply. War food offi|.Sals' have warned that civilians here may have to get along with less meat, lard, cheese and evaporated milk, and probably less poultry and eggs.

Greens are rich in vitamin A and good sources of vitamin C and iron. Nutritions say the average American could well eat as much as 50 percent more green vegetables. Since vitamins disappear as vege tables wilt and wait, use green vege tables fresh—the fresher the more vitamin C; the greener, the more vitamin A. To enjoy leafy vegeta bles at their best, wisk them from grocery or garden to table with only a brief pause in salad bowl or cook ing kettle. When they must be held for a day or so, keep them cool, damp, and lightly covered. Pile loosely to prevent crushing. To keep greens as bright as a St. Patrik’s Dav shamrock, home econo mists of the U. S. Department of Ag riculture say to cook them quickly— just until tender—season simply with salt and! meat drippings or other fat, and serve at once. Usually no water needs to be added in boiling greeny since the water that clings to the leaves is sufficient. Cover to speed cooking. Don’t dump any pot liquor down the drain—^valuable vitamins and minerals are dissolved in it. Use surplus juices in soup, gravy, or a vegetable cocktail. Quick-cooking greens are good bets for hurry-up meals. Approxi mate boiling times ate: Spinach, shredded cabbage, 5 to 10 minutes; beet greens, quartered cabbage, 10- 15 minutes; dandelion greens, turnip greens, 10-20 minutes; collards, 20 minutes, kale, 10-25 minutes; and broccoli, 15-25 minutes. Boys and girls are the nation’s freatest assets. Their education, their training, their spiritual and physical care, must be the constant concern of every adult. The boys and girls of today will be the men and women of tomorrow, and, in, the words of Woodrow Wilson, the future of our nation and of the world will be in the hands of the men an women of a future that is but a little way ahead of us. May they be the kind of men and women the world will re quire. Youth is the future! April 28 to May 5 will be designat ed as Boy and Girls Week. During this time it is suggested that we stress education in developing better citizens, health and safety as im portant in developing good health habits, emphasize responsibilities in the home and community and instill patriotism through sale of bonds and stamps and collection of salvage. This is a good time to focus atten tion on the need of boys and girls. PARTY FOR CHARLES MEEKS Charles Meeks, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C.
