Schuster, president of Acme Brew-. . eries, yesterday, as his company was) . deluged with nationwide congratula. tions for being one of America’s ten largest’ brewers. ‘‘Wihen confronted, with bottle cap rationing, we turned) to newspaper advertising in the hove of converting people to the purchase of beer in quarts instead of previously popular 11-ounce bottles. So suecessful was our newspaper campaign on Victory Quarts that 1942 was the biggest year in Acme history. with a 28.7% increase over 1941. This was not only proof of the ‘educational power of newspaper advertising, but also of the patriotic manner in which the public responds to appeals for cooperation. “With bottle caps rationed in order to “conserve metals, and an unprecedented wartime demand for beer, it was necessary to show tie public why it should buy in larger size bottles and make one cap do the work of three. It was a big job, needing both words and pictures for dramatic, forceful presentation, and newspapers seemed to us tobe the logical medium. The sales. figures fully justified. our decision.”’ Only western beer ever to, place among “‘the ‘big 20’’ in the national beer field, Acme was 19th in national sales figures in 1939, advanced to 16th place in 1940, again went ahead! in 1941 to 12th position, and with total sales of more than 26 millions gallons, attained 10th place in 1942, according to preliminary figures compiled by Research Company of America. One of the west’s largest users of -newspaper space, Acme’s advertising is prepared by Brisacher, Davyis & Van Norden.

Young Davis has been studying the Chinese language for five years besides doing his regular public school work.

M. Zierer, chairman of the depart-! ment of geography on the Los An-. geles campus of the University of California. Terming Australia the most important allied base in the Pacific, Dr. Zierer in a background lecture on international relations and the southwest Pacific spoke of the huge strategic importance of New Caleddonia, which is one of the.most important sources of nickel and chromite ore. “The Japanese in. 1938 began to develop iron ore and made every effort to seize New Caledonia. Had they been able to move down from New Britain to occupy and hold it, we would have been cut off from Australia. Now New Caledonia is strongly occupied by our forces.”’ With an intimate first hand knowledge of Oceania, Dr. Zeirer told of the importance of raw materials, distances and rainfall in the ealculations of war and the peace to follow. The Dutch East Indies, with their rubber from which quinine is made, he declared were of primary interet.

The difficulty, he states, was wood contractors were no longer able to obtain sawyers and choppers. This labor group, largely itinerant, has gone where wages are higher. The chamber appointed A. G. Chegwidden to be chairman of arrengements for the Fourth of July celebration. Last year the Fourth was celebrated in Nevada City. The two cities alternate. MRS. DAY HURT IN FALL Mrs. Lee R.

While the gun-play ‘was goin’ on -respectable folks were weeding out undesirable elements.. zed-eye saloons and gambling joints. « And Ben’s right. There’s a spirit in America that’s always working for a better community. Take that ‘clean-up or close-up” program of the brewing industry, for instance. Its whole purpose iséo see that beer by Joe Marsh : my Y t is sold only in clean, respectable places. Everybody benefits from cooperation like that even folks who want Prohibition back. Because those beer folks are working for the same thing—a decent, law-abiding community. From where I sit the way isn’t to pass more laws, but to enforce the ones we've got, and, rely on America’s spirit of tol-: erance and cooperation.
