It is not described in detail but Wash- ington dispatches say that it makes a lone foot soldier the “master of any tank” which may attack him. * The Weapon is “revolutionary,” its projectile penetrates armor, drives through densed and evaporated milk one wishes in | Miami, as well as various kinds of meat, | West. What is Miamii’s attitude toward It is epitomized in that remark of one of h wholesale solicitors, “Why -bother to go to | Key West when we can Sell all our stuff just around the eéfher?” 5 How do Miainiansthinky ywe feel about | that attitude? They may get ‘the answer by asking themselves how they.would feel were | they placed in a similar position. \ We, in Key West, have something to | complain about, but Miami’s squirming and | | tuning, because she is bossed by Jackson- ville, is of ne consequence, in view of the | cact that she gets all the foodstuffs she needs within-the regulations set up by the OPA and applicable to the entire United States. But Miami complains because she } can’t be the boss, and a Miami weekly sends | i a doleful letter, concerning her having to submit to Jacksonville, to Prentiss M. Brown, the OPA, director. As for us. we don’t care who bosses us provided we get our fair share of the food- stuffs. But we have not been getting, and still are not getting, our fair share, and, therefore, there is substance to our com- | plaint; it is not related in any way to jeal- j ousy, as is Miami’s against Jacksonville } “Give us this day our daily bread” in | the same volume as it is given to Miamians, | and we won't complain over Miami's or | Jacksonville’s bossing us.

Campbell, Jr., chief of ordnance, says the weapon has been iised successfully to destroy fortifi tanks in North Afriea. He admits that the “bazookgs” have been in m production for use by American and Allied soldiers. Intended for use at short range the weapon was designed to batter tanks, pill- boxes and fortifications. It possesses great explosive penetrating power and, we pre- sume, will have a considerable effect upon the battlefield. Tne day before the above information was released in Washington, Clinton Green, correspondent in North Africa for the In- ternational News Service, reported that the ‘Allied Air force is using a “secret weapon” against Axis tanks and armored vehicles and running up successes that “make the enemy gasp.” Mr. Green s the veloping the ‘aerial tank buster” months ago and it puts our air forces ahead of the énemy that thing for the Axis is to play “catch up.” He the secret wedpon, came to Egypt and trained in the desert against captured Ger- man tanks and armored vehicles.

We have heard grim warnings of a labor draft, yet government has been a great offender in causing a waste of manpower. The distribution industry has pleaded for simplification of rationing and price controls. Retailers are desperately short of able employes. But attainment of | greater operating efficiency has been dif- ficult because of cumbersome governme | régulations. ae H In recent months, the problems of ai tribution have grown to proportions ‘that | tually threaten a breakdown in the move- ment of necessities to consumiers. Retailers | have warned officials that the steady drain of key employes by thé military Services and _.war industries, and unworkable price and | rationing controls; must be corrected. If streamlined operating rules for the merchant are actually in the making, they will rot have to come a mortient too sdon. The next step should be prompt clarifica- j tion of the draft status of key employes. | Anniversaries | 25, 1934. fare | Today, The Citizen says in ae editorial paragraph: “The advent of two pebosatt | but it will hardly satisfy those) | who have acquired the taste for! | five | cost.” Fercent homebrew at less; i | 2 Today's 1786—William Rufus King, North Carolina congressman, Alabama senator, the Vice Pres- ident never sworn inté - office, born Sampson Co.
