The closing of 1950 activities Is just a calendar phenomenon; * in reality, the auxiliary is' stepping ahead -into more intensive activity. The local unit is in full swing of i|« most important membership drive. At the Christmas party, the auxiliary entertained Troop No. 1 of the Girl Scouts. The Girl Scouts are led by Avis Gans and Marge Schaffer. In Crystal Lake, Henrietta Vycital. Julia Hecht, Efcel Locke, Jeannette Vance, Christine Krinn and Minnie Green helped prepare 1,030 Christmas gift stockings, a part of „the county project, for men in Elgin. The Legion supported the idea with $10 and "Slack Theis contributed twenty-four pounds of candy. Gifts and refreshments weri also distributed at. Downey. Now the local unit is taking part in the national effort to organize over a million women to be prepared to give organised loyal home-front support to the men in the armed forces and carry on the women's historic mission of caring for the war disabled, their families and the families of the dead. Working closely with the American* Legion, the auxiliary is assisting materially in the unity and strength of America in this time of danger Women throughout the country the being urged to answer the auxiliary's call to service. The local unit with Henrietta Vycital as its chairman, urges mothers, sisters and daughters of American Legion members or deceased veterans. also women. veterans to come and take their placeB in the unit, where they can lively. Tlie aaxlllary is now alerting women oC service families to a patriotic duty in Which no woman can be indifferent. The danger of fifth-column activities must be guarded against by tightly closed ranks of sound American organisations of women who will stand together against the Communist forces that are trying to destroy us. It is up to the organised patriotic women to close the gaps in our lines of good Americans through which Communism- is Infiltrating into American life. The auxiliary believes that it is offering an opportunity to eligible women to do the things their heartB tell them must be done for America and those guarding our country. ' The auxiliary offers a junior activities program. This is a center for grooming young patriots where they learn about their country and help bring happiness to disabled Veterans while they have fun. Junior activities are s'o arranged that they are suitable for different age groups. DRIVER KILLED ' .

Bdwin Porter, associate area rent director, has announced that the recent 90-day extension of federal rent control passed by Congress Is not a new law. The Housing and Rent Act of 1950 became effective July 1, 1950, and remains in effect until June 30, 1951. Congress provided, however, that federal rent control should end on Dec. 31, 1950, except in those communities that specifically asked for control to continue. As a result, Dec. 31, 1950, became a "deadline" for community action. The law provided that rent Control would end by automatic expiration on the last day of this year in all. Incorporated communities that did not specifically act to extend control. ' The Dec. 31, 1950, ."deadline" no longer applies. Congress hap now extended the deadline, to March 31, 1951. This means that rent control will expire te all mwiiiMnflk* that do not take action tor continuance by March 31, 1151. The purpose of this 90-day extention is twofold: Throughout Ute country, nearly 900 communities hive already said they want rent" control to continue. They adopted resolutions by their local gowning councils, or went to the polls on Nov. 7 saying that a shortage of rental housing still exsisted requiring the extension of rent control. In tMs area, resolutions for continuance were passed by Waukegan, North Chicago, Antioch, Libertyville. High wood, Round Lake Park, Harvard and Huntley. ; Recently, a decision of the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington put into doubt the validity of the community resolutions already passed. This question has now been resolved by Congress. The^afhendment which was part of the 90-day extension • makes it fully clear that the affirmative resolutions for continued control already received by the housihg expediter are effective. f&ttoriaan, a large awnfctr «f communities were coming up to the Dec. 31, 1*50, deadline witl*** having taken action. The exjpee-; tatkm of sane ot tfefm, certatM&v was that Congress would act since Congress has done so, the deadline for community action has been extended to March 31, lltt.
