Remember those grim days during the Great Depression when men who couldn't find work stood on street corners selling apples? The best way to make sure that you be a street-corner peddler is to put your extra money into War Bonds. Remember those grim days during the Great Depression when men who couldn’t find work stood on street corners selling apples? Many of those apple peddlers had been prosperous...had had good jobs. They’d been making extra money...just as you are today. But the trouble was, they thought things would always be like that. Are you making that mistake today? Are you saving your extra money so that no matter what happens after the war you will have some money you can get your hands on?

Merchant Marine Ship First to Reach Leyte Beachhead LEYTE BEACHHEAD, P. I. — (By Voicecast Press to USA)—First Merchant Marine cargo ship to reach the beachhead at Leyte, on the first day of the invasion of the Philippines, picked its perilous path unescorted through 150 miles of mine field. War Shipping Administration officials, reporting from the beachhead, declared only a miracle of navigation saved the Liberty ship. Full credit was given the Captain, Albion M. Burbank of Watertown, Mass., who had never been in Philippine waters but volunteered to take his ship, the "DUDLEY FIELD," through the perilous mine fields all alone, when his escort vessels and other U.S. Merchant Marine ships of the invasion convoy became separated in a heavy squall above Mindanao. Carefully picking his way through 150 miles of mines, the ship dropped anchor at the exact spot previously selected for the unloading of Merchant Marine ships. Aboard were combat troopsack-ack batteries, howitzers and mortar shells which were badly needed on the invasion beachhead. Despite enemy fire, the entire merchant crew turned to work 24 hours a day to unload into landing barges with the aid of the Navy armed guard crew and Army port battalions. Ten members of the crew were from the San Francisco Bay area including Chief Mate William A Jonson, 146 Ralph St., Chief Engineer Kenneth G. Knox, 211 Winfield St., First Engineer Gordon McBride, 1431 Eddy St., a member of San Francisco. The Isthmia Steamship Co. of San Francisco operate the merchant vessel for the War Shipping Administration.

Thursday, November 16, 1944 Tons of Fertile Soil Lost During Week’s Rain Storm Tons of fertile soil were moved this week by the heavy rain storm on sloping soils where no cover crop was present to bind the earth, says Farm Advisor H. E. Wahlberg, following numerous observations this week. The most glaring examples of this erosion occurred in orchards and fields that had recently been stirred by disc or cultivator in preparation of a seed bed for late planting of some kind of cover crop. In contrast to this heavy loss of soil are the hundreds of examples of good cover crop growth that resulted from early planting in the months of August and September. While records indicate that this week's storm has been one of the heaviest November downpours in recent years, the Farm Adviser points out that losses of valuable soil are experienced almost every year, either earlier or later than this date, and that it is always good practice to get the cover crop planted and well started by September in order to avoid the heavy losses of soil that are almost inevitable in soils unprotected at this time of the year. One only needs to travel along the roads of the foothill areas to see the splendid functions of an early cover crop during storms similar to this weeks'. Floyd D. Young Will Give Frost Warnings Floyd D. Young Will Give Frost Warnings Again This Winter Again during the 1944-45 season Clear Channel Station KFI will present nightly frost warning forecasts for the growers of citrus and other frost-tender crops, beginning Wednesday, November 15th, it was announced today by W.
