WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.—-
Publication of a voluminous report
on Axis-front activities in the
United States, it was learned au-
thoritatively today. is being held up
by the Dies committee because of
inability of members to agree on
inclusion of a complimentary ref-
erence to the Roosevelt adminis-
. tration.
Representative Voorhis (D-CaliD),
a member, criticized the committee
on the house floor this week for
not having released the report,
which he said would have been of
great aid in putting the public on
guard against subversive activities.
The administration reference, a
committee member disclosed, was
written for insertion in the fore-
word of the report but was object-
ed to by other members.
"We could see no reason why our
committee, which certainly isn’t
loved any too much by the admin-
istration. should go out of its way
to write a New Deal eulogy in a re-
port of this nature," said the mem-
ber. who asked to remain anony-
mous.
He predicted, however, that the
differences within the committee
would be straightened out shortly
and to appropriate $60,000 for its
operation.
Officially the committee, set up
in 1938 to investigate unamerican
activities, ceased to exist last Jan
3, when its latest authorisation and

make it WAR BONDS instead!
Buy all the war bonds you CAN... buy only the
canned vegetables you NEED. That’s good sense, and good business
too, although you may often find that your grocer’s stock of Kuner
and Empson vegetables is not quite so big as it used to be.
. One Out of Three Has Gone to War
Last summer Kuner-Empson put up the
largest pack of Colorado vegetables in its
, entire history ... yet grocers are carrying
smaller stocks because 35 out of every 100
cans of Kuner-Empson vegetables have
been earmarked for the Armed Forces. One
out of every three cans will see active serv-
ice in the mess halls and rolling kitchens of
the fighting sons of America. That’s a big
bite to take out of last year’s pack, but not
TOO big.. .especially when all of us are
doing our part to help. ,
We know you will be glad to help con-
serve food supplies - which are, after all,
MUNITIONS of war-and to help keep
food distribution on an even keel by buy-
ing your canned vegetables on a "hand-to-
mouth” basis. That's the way most of us
buy in normal times—so, of course, when
you buy normally, you do not deny your-
self. You simply make sure that no unnec-
essary strains are placed upon the trans- —
portation and distributing systems that bring
canned foods to your grocer’s shelves. Also,
you make sure that your neighbor as well
as yourself can have a fair and adequate
share of delicious, Colorado-grown vege-
tables, ripened in mile-high irrigated fields
and packed in the shadow of the Rockies.
There’s enough to last...
Remember, a new crop of vegetables will be
ready for harvest in just a few months-and
you may be SURE that Kuner-Empson and
other canners throughout the country are
planning increased acreage and expanded
production that should make this year's pack
even larger than last year's. In the mean-
time, buy just what you need from week
to week. Thanks, friends. P
