Mail Early

Iardy deliveries by mail of Christmas pack
ages have decreased so markedly in recent
years, as a result OF public cooperation with
the post office department, that a cautioning
word to start holiday gifts on their travels
early is not to be offered with the emphasis
such warnings once required.
But it is a fact that with the heavy in.
crease in the volume of postal matter as the
great day nears it is necessary to employ
a large army of inexperienced clerks who.
because OF their unfamiliarity with their task,
are slow in performance and cause some I'M.
delays.
1t Will be well, therefore, to post packages
even earlier than customary if they are to
reach their destinations before Christmas. Post
offices will welcome a chance to send pack
ages even now and give assurance that if
they are stamped do not deliver until Christ
mas eve" the wish of the sender will be
carefully followed out.
The trouble is not in local deliveries. it an
pears, but at points Of origin and in transit.
This situation can easily be grasped when it

Labor Bottleneck

Unless it is possible to muster in many
millions OF workers for industrial production
in the defense program, it is obvious that
labor bottleneck in the near future.
There is already a distressing deficiency in
both skilled and common labor in many de-
tense undertakings. Manufacturers are con-
tinually finding difficulty in securing sufficient
labor to meet their commitments on time. On
top Of this Col. John H. Jouett, former army
air corps pilot who has been reelected presi-
merce, reveals that airplane plants by next
June will require employees representing a
535 per cent increase over the forces employ
ed at the beginning of 1910. Already airplane
factory payrolls, he says, account for a ITS
per cent increase since last January l.
Colonel Jouett deals in exact figures, in
making his announcement, not merely in GEN
industry on January l last some 60, 1000 work
ers. That number has jumped to 1854, 1920. BY
June it will have to rise to 1892, 600 if there
is to be no serious stoppage in production.
And this, he explains, does not take into con-
sideration the Thousands upon thousands of
additional employees who will be put on pay
rolls of subcontractors making parts for the
large companies.
With the situation this bad in one industry
alone, it is easy to foresee the difficulties
that producers in other branches of the de-
tense program must face. Nor is labor a major
problem for industry only. Construction has
already begun to feel the pinch of insufficient
workers. Wherever defense bases are being
created, contractors are sending out sos calls
Tor laborers, skilled and common, and are
meeting with but Indifferent success.

Morgenthau And Eccles

Mariner S. Eccles, chairman Of the Federal
Reserve Board, among whose recent sugges-
tons were recommendations that the volume
of excess reserves be cut, and that some OF
the treasury's powers in the monetary field
be taken away, brought no comment from
Treasury Secretary Morgenthau in his ad-
dress before the National Industrial Confer
ence Board last week.
Are you and Mr.. Eccles feuding again."
he was asked. Ant another query sought his
views on easy money. II am not going to
have any comment on that" the secretary
replied.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Morgenthau gave notice that
tenders are invited for Treasury bills to the
amount of 500, 900, 900, or Whereabouts. They
will be designated national defense series,
o1-day bills, and will be sold on a discount
basis to the highest bidders.

has enough to eat" she declares. "unem-
r1ovment is general. Qualified workers are
forced to 90 to work in Germany because
if thew don't their dole and their ration earos
are taken away from them. And without a
ration card one cannot live in Paris. Even
with a ration card one lives miseraDly
enough"
Contrasted with this pitiable situation OF the
French, the Germans in Paris are wealthy.
.aThey dispose of 40 francs a day, with lodg-
ings and rations thrown in, says MRS.
Her testimony does not parallel that
of German propagandists who still claim the
French are HAPPY and "contented' under
the Nazi masters.
There is one hopeful side to this sad pic
ture. The spreading unrest among the French
people, which must be stiffening the back OF
the Petain regime at Vichy, may yet crystallze
into organized revolt, the consequences OF
which might be as corrective as the French
revolution, which also had its inception in the
unrest of the people.

Hatred Breeds In France

A distressingly clear picture of conditions
in occupied France has been painted by a
Texas woman who has just returned to the
United States after IL years residence in
France.
This woman, Mrs. Jessica Hensley, was in
the vicinity Of Paris when the Nazis came
and only left Paris on November Is. During
that time she had ample opportunity to OBJ
serve the effects of the German invasion and
the remolding of French opinion under Ger
man domination.
At first, she says, the French were glad
that Paris was to be spared and, because
they were thus relieved, began to think that
perhaps Europe should be reorganized and
that the Germans could do the job we'll.
This viewpoint changed quickly, she says
as quickly as the French people realized that
instead of organizing the Germans were loot
ing France. Once this fact sunk home, the
tolerance with which the Nazis were first
greeted turned into widespread hatred.
In the interview Mrs. Hensley granted the
New York Herald Tribune, she says the misery
= occupied France is appalling. mo one ever
