Celebrate July 4th
Without Fireworks;
Buy Bonds Instead
“Texans who may plan to cele
brate July 4, cannot hope to com
pete with gunpowder explosions on
the battlefront,” Marvin Hall,
state fire insurance commissioner,
said in urging a safer and saner
celebration for Independence Day.
“Lives can be saved, injuries
prevented, loss by damage and
fire destruction averted,” Hall add
ed, “if we eliminate the use of
fireworks from our plans for ob
serving our country’s Declaration
oi Independence.
“Gunpowder and explosives
burned up in fireworks for useless
reasons can’t be used by our fight
ing forces in the front lines. Fire
works exploded in Texas will not
win another ‘Midway victory.’
“Our celebrations with fireworks
have caused us to pay a high proce
in previous years. This year the
most patriotic manner of celebrat
ing the Declaration of Independ
ence will be to convert gunpowder
into bullets and bombs by the
purchase of war stamps and bonds
instead of fire crackers.”

Fire Helped Create
Our Rubber Shortage
“Fire has had a large part in
adding to the critical rubber short
age in this nation,” Marvin Hall,
state fire insurance commissioner,
said today.
Hall explained that seemingly
local fires can now have a far-
reaching effect on the nation dur
ing time of war, as he urged in
dividual attention to fire preven
tion in every home and place of
business.
“A supply of crude rubber,” Hall
stated, “with a value of $11,000,-
000, and estimated at that time
to be one-tenth of the nation’s
supply in storage, was destroyed
by fire in October, 1941, at Fall
River, Mass.
“This huge fire has become
known as the largest single in
dustrial fire loss in the history
of our country. Most certainly its
after effects is presenting a seri
ous handicap to our war effort
now.
“Fire definitely destroys effort.
The $60,000,000 liner Normandie
is useless for carrying war sup
plies while lying on its side at the
bottom of the Hudson river—the
victim of fire.”

two walks and four errors to out

accounted for one each in the sec

didn’t have that extra oomph to
push ahead.
A two-run rally by Madeley’s
Pharmacy in the final inning fell
short by one run as Loupot’s held
on to their slim lead to come out
ahead, 3-2. Some fine pitching by

Draftees May
Return Home To
Clear Up Affairs
Pointing out that the examin
ation of registrants by local board
physicians is merely a prelimin
ary examination to eliminate the
obviously unfit, General J. Watt
Page, state selective service direct
or, today warned registrants that
they should await actual induction
into the army before making any
final disposition of financial and
personal affairs.
“Every selectee,” General Page
said, “must undergo final physical
examination at an army reception
center. The examination by local
board physicians is merely prelim
inary to the army test. No selectee,
therefore, should assume that be
cause he has passed the local board
test, or even because he' has been
ordered to an army reception cen
ter for possible induction, that he
will be accepted by the army.”
Registrants who are inducted
will be given ample time to return
to their homes to adjust their
personal affairs within a few days
after induction, General Page
stated, pointing out that a liberal
ized policy regarding furloughs
for newly inducted registrants has
been announced by the War De
partment. He said:
“Local boards have today been
instructed to attach to the delivery
list for each group of prospective
inductees the names of those for
whom furloughs are recommended,
and the Selective Service System
has been assured by the War De
partment that such furloughs will
invariably be granted if recom
mended by the local board.” v
These furloughs for inducted
registrants will begin not later
than five days after induction,
according to General Page, and
will not exceed ten days except
that when an inductee lives at a
considerable distance from the
army reception center, a leave up
to fifteen days may be granted.
“This new army policy should
prevent any undue hardship to
selectees who are inducted,” Gen
eral Page said. “In the past there
were some cases of hardship un
der the present system of induct
ing forthwith selectees who pass
their final physical examination at
army reception centers. Some men,
expecting induction, had made
final disposition of their personal
affairs and then were rejected.
Others were considerably incon
venienced after induction while
awaiting leave to adjust pressing
personal matters. Now, every pros
pective inductee can be assured
that if he requires reasonable time
to return to his home to dispose
of his personal affairs, leave will
be granted to him within a few
days after his induction.”
