Washington dispatch reports the War Production Board reversing a prior ban affecting long shirt tails and pleated bosoms, noting policy shifts and administrative adjustments in wartime textile guidelines. The move signals regulatory flexibility amid wartime supply considerations.
A garbled wartime dispatch describes Marine Lt Col D. P. Devereux of Wake Island as set to travel to Tokyo en route to the United States while Marines at Hokig prison camp remain under guard. The report notes War Department censorship limits on prisoner names, while confirming Devereux’s number and the evacuees from Wake and the ships at Voxosusa. The piece also mentions legendary Wake garrison messages and various local club notices, including PTA and church events, with scattered biographical details and community activities.
Warren R Williams, secretary of the Broome County Food Merchants Association, says meat rationing may end soon due to ample beef for consumer demand though pork and ham remain very limited. He notes cattle supply shows improvement and that merchants will spread available meat as far as possible. Beef supply dipped after September when additional fed coupons were validated.
