Latest move to speed up dis
charges comes from the coast guard
which has announced that after May
2 point scores will be dropped and
all enlisted personnel will be eligible
for release.
In the meantime, as of Aprl 15,
the point score was reduced from
30 to 28 for male enlisted person
nel, except yeomen, storekeepers
and pharmacist’s mates whose
scores remained at 34. Points need
ed for release of SPARs was re
duced from 20 to 19 with the same
groups excepted and requiring a
score of 22.
Reserve officers will be placed on
inactive duty so that their terminal
leave will have been completed by
June 30. Since V-J Day, coast guard
has released more than 11,700 men
and 5,400 SPARs. It is possible that
drastic need for trained personnel
to man ships and to operate separa
tion centers may keep some re
serves on duty beyond the dates es
tablished. .
Questions and Answers
Q. Is there some way in which I
could arrange to have flowers
placed on the grave of a loved one
who was killed in action and Is
buried in U. S. Military Cemetery
No. 1 in France? I have the grave
number and all information. Could
it be done through the Red Cross
and what would be the expense?—
R. M. S., Scottsboro, Ala.
A. The army says there is no way
at the present time due to lack of
proper communications and other
reasons. However, the quartermas
ter corps is providing a small
American flag for every grave in
the military cemeteries for Memo
rial Day.
Q. My son spent 22 months in the
navy and was discharged with a B.C.
D. and me and my family are de
pending upon him. Is he eligible
to draw this $20 a week unemploy
ment compensation?—Reader, Arab,
Ala.
A. A BCD discharge is a'bad con
duct discharge and is considered
other than honorable, but not dis
honorable. His eligibility would de
pend upon a ruling of the Veterans’
administration, which may or may
not grant privileges of the G.I. BH1.
The determining factor might be
whether his BCD accrued through
a general or a summary court mar
tial. Apply for a ruling at your
nearest Veterans’ administration of
fice.
Q. I have a son who was drafted
in the army June 22, 1945, and he
is 19 and had two points when the
war ended. Do his points go up or
will he have to wait until the men
get discharged with 2 points, or will
he have to serve 18 months or two
years?—Mrs. M. H., Chicago, 111.
A. The army says the trend now
is length of service for discharge
instead of points. The latest regu
lations were issued by General
Eisenhower when he announced
that men with 45 points or 30
months service would be released
by June 30. It may be the policy
of the army to reduce the length of
service after June 30 to 18 months
or 21 months or some other figure.
Q. My son is in the navy reserves
and has been in since February,
1945. He was overseas six months,
a seaman 1st class. Will he get a
chance for leave to come home soon
and what do they get leaves or fur
loughs for?—Mrs. T. L. W., Stony-
point, Va.
A. The usual tour of duty in the
navy is 24 months. Furloughs are
granted at the pleasure of the com
manding officer and are not earned.
Q. I have just been discharged
from the navy. When I left the sep
aration center at San Pedro, the
chief in charge told me to leave my
seabag and they would mail it home
for me. I have been out 27 days
and no seabag. To whom do I write
to find out above it?—C. H. P., Fyffe,
Ala.
A. Write to the commanding of
ficer of the separation center where
you obtained your discharge.
Q. Does the point system affect
marines, service four years, volun
tary enlistment? — A. D., Des
Moines, Iowa.
A. No.
Q. Is it proper now, since the fight
ing ceased, to put a star on the ser
vice flag in our church for each one
inducted into service of our coun
try? What is to be done with the
stars representing those men who
have been discharged?—Mrs. K. M.
W., Concordia, Mo.
A. Yes, since our country is still
at war, it is proper to put stars in
the service flag and while there is
no regulation, it likely is proper to
leave stars representing dis
chargees in the flag, as having
served their country.

Montanan Urges Farmers to
Sell Wheat and Save World
By WALTER A. SHEAD
WNU Washington Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Farmers should deliver their wheat
to the government and do it now, if we are to save the lives of
millions of persons who are wasting away from starvation in
many countries of the world.
This is the belief of Thomas D.
Campbell, the nation’s biggest farm
er, tall, lanky, sun-browned, white-
thatched, enthusiastic, purposeful
westerner of Hardin, Mont.
Colonel Campbell, for he is a full
colonel in the TJ. S. army, is deliver
ing 500,000 bushels of his own wheat
to the government under terms of
the offer of the department of agri
culture as fast as he can secure
trucks and cars to get it to the rail
roads, in an effort to get together
200,000,000 bushels of wheat for ship
ment.
Gives Reasons.
The dynamic westerner declares
that farmers, large and small,
should deliver their wheat to the
government, immediately, for the
following reasons:
1. The announced plan of the D.
of A. to buy wheat at the market
relieves the farmer of any uncer
tainty of price. Any farmer, under
terms of the offer can deliver his
wheat, receive a certificate from the
government, and hold that certifi
cate for as long as April 30, 1947,
and elect at any time within that
period to sell. This gives him the
advantage of a higher price when it
comes.
2. The government has ordered
No. 1 priority for cars for shipment,
although there remains the problem
of trucks to get the wheat to the
county elevators.
3. The farmers who figure their
income tax on a cash basis will
have the advantage of increased
prices and reduced rate on their
taxable income, as the government
carries him without cost or interest
on the loan while he holds his certifi
cate for the higher prices.
4. Delivery of wheat now will
empty storage and provide room for
the coming crop. Owing to hous
ing demands, it will be impossible
to build increased storage facilities.
5. Perhaps the most important
reason why the farmers should re
lease their wheat now is the humani
tarian reason, for it will mean early
shipping, to save lives and to build
renewed hope in the breasts of mil
lions of people who today are with
out hope.
FOOD . . . Col. Thomas D.
Campbell, Montana wheat ranch
er, urges sending of wheat to Eu
rope to feed the starving. At one
time he farmed 96,000 acres.
>VVlAriON NOTES
FLYING BATHTUBS
Drs. C. F. Code, E. H. Wood
and E. J. Baldes of the Mayo aero
medical unit told physiologists at
the first session of the Federation of
American Societies for Experimen
tal Biology that if the pilot of a
fighter plane could sit in a bathtub
full of water while he was doing
fast turns, loops and other evasive
maneuvers he would be much less
likely to “blackout.” Men were
spun around on a centrifuge to test
the effects of immersion in water as
protection against blackout. With
water up to just below the breast
bone, the men were protected against
the effects of acceleration to an
amount expressed as 0.9 g. When the
, water level was raised to the level
of the third rib, the protection was
1.7 g., which is comparable with the
protection given by the special anti
blackout suits.

Rammed Earth
House for Him
GREELEY, COLO. — Back in 124
B. C., Hannibal built rammed earth
watchtowers. And now, Attorney
David J. Miller, copying a page
from ancient history, has erected a
rammed earth home to defeat the ^
housing and building materials j
shortage problem.
His new six-room home of mod- |
ern design and novel heating sys- :
tern was constructed with a bull- j
dozer, a pneuma“c back-fill tamp
and a little luml .• from an old
barn for door sills and window cas
ings.
The bulldozer was used to clear
the site and mix the proper soils,
which must include clay, silt and
sand. Forms were set in place for
the walls and the earth was rammed
into them with the tamp. After the
earth dried, the forms were re
moved and the durable dirt house
was completed.
Six other Greeley residents are
now planning similar homes.
GRANGE AND AIR
The National Grange, speak
ing for 750,000 families, has
said: “Transportation by air in
the postwar period will assume
an economic importance to agri
culture and to the nation as a
whole far beyond that which
existed prior to World War II.”
• • •
Today’s Q. and A.
Q.—What is “seat of the pants”
flying?
A.—It was flying in the old days
before there were instruments.
When the plane went up or down or
tipped, inertia of the flyer’s body
changed his position in his seat
enough for him to feel the difference
and he could sense the position of
the plane accordingly. In the air
lines nowadays a pilot can tell where
he is and the altitude of his plane
at every moment entirely by instru
ments even in the thickest weather
or darkness.

Early Women Pilots
Back in 1929 when any kind cf air
plane pilot was regarded with awe,
Miss Manila Davis of Flatwoods
soloed a small English Moth air
craft at East Boston, Mass., and in
1930 earned her private pilot’s li
cense to be credited with becoming
the first licensed West Virginia wom
an pilot. She is now the wife of
B. B. Talley, Huntington, W. Va.

Designers of tomorrow’s
planes are planning to use heli
um gas to inflate the tires to
make them lighter than air.
SPRAYS TREES ... To control
hemlock looper in northwestern
Oregon, this special dusting
plane is used. For some tests,
lead arsenate suspensions were
sprayed; for others, DDT.
What Price Glory?
BELLINGHAM, WASH. — Wil
liam McLaughlin, Lynden farmer,
ran the following advertisement:
“Will trade distinguished service
cross I won in World War I for
priority on Ford-Ferguson tractor.”
Decorated for wiping out a German
machine gun nest single-handed in
the First World war, the ex-machine
gunner said he had saved five years
to buy a tractor, but was unable to,
because priority regulations favor
veterans of World War II.
PLANES PLANT
A 20-day job of seeding 300 acres
of wheat with sweet clover was cut
to 12 hours by A. T. Sumner and
Sons farm near Milford, 111., when
an airplane was used. Without hav
ing to wait for ideal soil conditions,
360 pounds of seed was “sprayed”
with what was found to be from
36 to 112 seeds per square foot.
Those who did the seeding were
Glenn Schuetz, Carl Shelton and Bob
Gunn, who operate a crop dusting
service. All are pilots and own
farms.
Y OU might not think that football
was back, with May on its way
to June, but football is always back.
It has few intermissions now from
January to Janu
ary, when you pack
in spring practice
and the never-end
ing flow of football
talk. I found this
true again on a re
cent jaunt through
the Southeast where
record squads were
busy at spring
practice in Florida,
Georgia, Alabama
and the Carolinas.
Many of these
practice delegations ran from 125 to
175 men. The early enthusiasm,
even under blazing suns, was far be
yond normal.
I ran into Wally Butts, Georgia’s
coach, who coyly admitted his 1946
Bulldogs would be better than fair.
“We had no line last fall," Wally
said, “but we have a good line now
and with Trippi on hand for the
backfield, plus a few more, we hope
to be ready for Alabama and Okla
homa A. and M., to mention only
two. Also L.S.U.”
In the meanwhile Alabama and
Oklahoma A. and M. are facing the
chance of losing Harry Gilmer and
Bob Fenimore, two All-America
stars. The beckoning finger of the
army draft has called both for a
physical test. These two have been
in the 4-F class the last two sea
sons. But if they are taken, there
can be no replacements to match
their worth. Alabama has a great
squad. But losing Gilmer is like
losing a Sammy Baugh or a Luck-
man. Losing Fenimore, the 195-
pound sprinter, passer and kicker
would be no worse than the army
losing Doc Blanchard.
Florida Full of Hope
Florida was running a high foot
ball fever. Ray Wolf and a new
strong staff are now at Florida with
the best Gator prospects in several
seasons. Miami university, Orange
Bowl winner over Holy Cross, ex
pects to have a much better team
than the 1945 squad.
Snuffy Stirnweiss, backfield coach
at North Carolina, reports the ar
rival of halfback Justice at Chapel
Hill, plus several additions that Carl
Snavely can use with considerable
pleasure. I also received the news
that Bob Neyland will have another
Tennessee squad that will be hard
to clean away. Also that Wallace
Wade, back at Duke, is busier than
ten swarms of bees getting ready
for a hard campaign.
Southern teams have a stiff spring
training grind and they are busier
than usual with so many Bowls to
be filled next year. With Neyland
and Wade back they also face keen
er competition, especially if Frank
Thomas at Alabama loses Gilmer.
No one can say yet what 1 Henry
Frnka will have at Tulane, but you
can gamble the Green Wave is roll
ing forward. It might also be noted
that no one can say yet just how
many good football players the
draft will remove from the scene all
over the map. This draft procedure
will wreck some teams while miss
ing others completely.
Army and Notre Dame
We ran into several Notre Dame
ex-stars who advised us to keep an
eye on Frank Leahy’s 1946 squad.
“The last two Army teams piled
up 108 points against us in 1944 and
1945. A beating is one thing. A
massacre is something else. But
brother it is going to be different
in 1946. Notre Dame will be there
with what it takes. This means line,
backfield, power and speed.
“Leahy will have both Kelly and
Mello back. Here are two of the
best backs Notre Dame has known
in years. But they are only a small
part of the material now on hand
for spring practice at South Bend.”
“You don’t figure any Army push
over?” I asked the Notre Darner.
“Certainly not. But Army won’t
be the Army of 1944 and 1945. Why?
The line. Yes, Army will have or
should have the best backfield in
football, headed by Blanchard, Da
vis and Tucker. But don’t forget
Army has lost a number of valuable
linemen and that Army line has
been a big factor in their victories.
In the meanwhile Capt. Tom
Hamilton, now on the job at Navy,
finds himself caught between two
fires—Army and Notre Dame. Tom
Hamilton is not only one of the best
coaches in football, but one of the
best inspirational leaders. Hamil
ton has the foundation or basis for
a hustling, fighting squad that can
make it extremely uncomfortable
for pny opponent on Navy’s schedule.
Michigan c Troubles
Hamilton was the one man who
saved college football during the
war. At least he did more for the
cause than any other three men I
know about. One team that may
acquire more than its share of draft
trouble is Michigan. Last fall Fritz
Crisler had 18 freshmen on his
squad, 8 of whom were classed
among his regulars. The Wolver
ines had one of the youngest squads
in the country and for this reason
may suffer heavier casualties.

By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D,
Of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.
Released by Western Newspaper Union.
Lesson for May 12
Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se
lected and copyrighted by International
Council of Religious Education; used by
permission.
LEARNING TO LlYE TOGETHER
LESSON TEXT—Matthew 18:15-17: 21. 22;
Mark 10:35-45.
GOLDEN TEXT—By this shall all men
know that ye are my disciples, if ye have
love one to another.—John 13:35.
One world! Men have discovered
in recent years that we do live in
one world and that we must learn
how to get along with one another,
or we may find that we have de
stroyed civilization and one another.
God has always taught in his Word
that all men are of one origin, and
that despite their differences, they
are to live in unity and peace. That
would have been blessedly true if
men had obeyed God and his law.
Sin brought division and confusion.
Now in our day, when we should
be far on the way to the attain
ment of God’s purpose, we find men
more inclined than ever to be sus
picious of one another, grasping
in their desires and purposes, and
evil in many of their ways.
We have not yet learned to live
together as nations. Let us set our
selves to the task of living together.
I. A Method for Dealing with Dif
ferences (Matt. 18:15-17).
This is the God-prescribed meth
od for dealing with personal prob
lems in the Christian church. That
body in which love should reign is
often rent by jealousies and person
al resentments. If permitted to run
on unchecked, they create division
and even strife before the world,
with all the disgrace it brings on
the cause of Christ.
Such matters are to be dealt with
promptly. The aggrieved one is
not to wait for the sinner to make
the approach, but is to go to him
and place before him the evidence
of his guilt. Done in kindness and
with tact, this is frequently all that
needs to be done. A man may thus
win his brother, with no further ado
or fuss in the church.
If he proves stubborn, the next
step is to bring some brethren along
and talk it over again. This evi
dence of their concern may break
the stubbornness, or their prayers
may win him. And if it does not
work, the things said and done will
have been witnessed by brethren
who can faithfully report them to
the church.
The final step is to bring the err
ing brother before the church. Now
he may see the seriousness of his
offense and repent. If not, there is
one plain duty; he is to be put out
side of the fellowship of the church.
Does th.'.t mean that he is aban
doned and forgotten? Certainly not.
He is to be “as a heathen man
and a publican.” Does the church
have any interest in such indi
viduals? Indeed it does, for the pri
mary business of the church is to
win both heathen and publican to
fellowship with Christ.
II. A Measure for Determining
Forgiveness (Matt. 18:21, 22).
Peter’s question was a practical
one. He supposed the case of one
who sinned repeatedly against one
who had shown a forgiving spirit.
Most of us need not suppose such
cases; we have them before us.
We forgive and are ready to let
it all be forgotten, when lo, the of
fender turns up with an even
greater wrong, indignity or sin!
Then there is Weeping and appar
ent repentance, followed almost at
once by another offense.
How long is this business to go
on? The Jews said, “Three times,
then let judgment fall.” Peter,
being a follower of Christ, went
much farther. He would forgive sev
en times. Well, that’s a lot of for
giveness; let us recognize that. Most
of us haven’t even gone as far as
the Jews, and Peter is way ahead
of us.
But it is not enough! Forgiveness
which has any limit set on it is not
forgiveness at all. The very genius
of forgiveness demands that we do
not stand there with a measuring
line or an account book. It must be
from the heart, without limit and
without restraint.
III. A Means for Attaining Great
ness (Mark 10:35-45).
To want to be truly great for God
is certainly not a sin. In a world
which was rejecting Christ and get
ting ready to crucify him, this moth
er wanted her two boys to have a
place of honor in the service of
Christ. So far, so good; but then
came the thing which spoiled it all
—selfishness.
To seek honor for oneself, or for
those one loves in order that the
ego might be inflated and self given
a chance to show off, that is
definitely unchristian.
If then it is right to seek proper
greatness, how may it be done?
Verses 43-45 tell us. It is by way of
sacrificial service, the denial of self.
This world and its kingdoms say
that the one who serves is inferior
to the .one who is served. In the
kingdom of Jesus it is the one who
serves who is greatest.
Where will such a path lead? For
Christ it led to the cross, and be
yond it the victory of resurrection
day. It may mean death for us, for
a real willingness to serve connotes
a willingness to give all, even life
itsplf. for his glory.
