How do things look for Britain
How for Hitler?
I A year ago Hitler considered
and announced that the war was
over. Al the very latest it would
be over in September
There were reasons for his con-
fidence.
Britain had no army except the
one evacuated from Dunkirk. The
British Isles were completely I'M
defended. The air force was in
adequate, and the islands had no
heavy guns.
In order 10 build up production
rapidly. Britain was dependent on
the United States. The United
States was on a cash and carry
basis.
Hitler. on the other hand was
in control Of all the Channel and
North Sea ports, had pact with
RUSSIA which protected his back,
and was in complete economic
control Of the Balkans.
MuSSolini had considerable
fleet and air force, and was in a
position seriously 10 challenge the
British in the Mediterranean.
NOV. after a year, let us look
~ AT the picture.
Hitler failed in an attempt TO
get control of the air over Britain
in September.
Hitler is still in control Of the
Balkans. but the fighting in Ru-
mania. YugoSlavia and Greece has
disrupted the economic life OF
those countries. and seriously de-.
ranged the transportation system.
The Balkans, AS source OF food,
oil and metals. are. 10 an meal

Hitler than they were a year ago.
According 10 plan, the Italians
should have conquered Egypt dur
ing the Winter, and had actually
prepared a huge force for two
pronged attack from Libya and
Ethiopia.
Instead. Italy has been elimi-
mated by the Greeks and the Brit (
ish as fighting force. More than
one-half of the Italian navy has
been destroyed. Her air force is
demOralized.

The attack Finland complete ly exposed Russias military weakness that it enor- mously reduced Stalins power to threaten dipomati cally while it correspondngly increased Hiters to threaten Russia automatically and wiring "colla- boraton" from her.
 Partly a result of Russia's past policy Poland and France out of the One by one Russia has seen the Balkan countries which with a courageous policy she might have had buffer states allies, come under German domination Yugoslavia may become the last and greatest of these Russia's only potential allies in the Bal kans in the event of a conflict with Germany are now Yugoslavia, Greece and Turkey
 It may be said in defense of Stalin's diplomacy that he has avoided a major far and that he has meanwhile expanded Russian territory. So far as expanse of territory concerned both Hun gary and Bulgaria, instead of working for Balkan alliance, got pre-19l4 territory from Rumania- and paid for it by vassaage.

 That the Treasury to conduct a selling campaign rivalng Liberty Bond drives of World War days is apparent from reports that 500000 persons will be enrolled for the task and that solicitors will canvass not only individuals but large-scale em- poyers, labor unions schools and host of other groups and organizations.
 This of selling the securities will in- sure broad public participation. From psychologl- cal point of view such extensive basis of support is desirable. It will bring home to everyone that the defense effort depends upon him personally It will make for of sharing that will add vital ity to this tremendous enterprise.
 The program also will have desirable social con- sequences. By inducing people to save instead of spend to the hilt it will provide brake against in- flation Further, direct sales to individual inves- tors will drain off extra money put into circulation by Federal spending, helping to keep this new in- come out of markets that compete with the arma- ment program.
 Treasury officials represented believing that from $30O0 GOO to almost $5000000000 worth Iof the defense securities be sold within the first IA months of their issue Considering the as- tronomical cost of the armament effort which the United States has undertaken this will not be, rea lively, a large sum- But it will obvate to ex- tent the dangers inherent in other forms of borrow ing. and will ease in part the burden of taxation.

STALIN'S DIPLOMACY

Mussolinis diplomacy has proved to be disas- trously stupid. He has put his country in such a position that if England wins the Italy must lose its empire, while if Germany wins it must lose its independence. Calamity may well overtake the Italian leader and his country even before the war is Yet he did not need to make his premature gamble and enter the conflict the side of Hitler He could have stayed and devoted his energies to building up a Balkan bloc to resist the German ad- vance. Greed for little more territory led him to lose most of what he already had.
 What, however to say of that other European cooperator with Hitler, Joseph Stalin? His non-aggression pact with Germany in 1889, and his since then, have been admired as brilliant strokes of diplomacy, not by Communists alone but by many others. Cartoonists until very recently were fond of depicting that "wily old fox in the Kremlin' gathering in spells without effort while Germany and England destroyed each other.
 It is beginning to seem increasingly doubtful however that Stans diplomacy has been so brilliant either from the Russian standpoint or from his own Russias obvious disturbance at not having been consulted by Hitler his Bulgarian move her feeble rebuke to Bulgaria for not fighting Hitler her silence while Yugosavia being forced into the Nazi orbit her continued silence that Yugoslavia appears to be struggling away from the Axis (though she may be privately encouraging Turkey to resist the Ger mans) underline the uneasy position in which she finds herself
 The non-aggression pact with Hitler was praised master-stroke Stalins part, on the grounds that it deflected the German lightning westward instead of eastward that it enabled Saln to get great deal of territory without fighting and that it enabled him to stand aside while "capitalistic' England and Germany exhausted each other leaving the future to Russia and communism. In the light either of the actual situation at the time of sub sequent developments, these alleged gains do not convincing.
 The Russo German pact the signal for the attack Poland. If Russia had not signed that pact but had backed up the British guarantee it is altogether probable that the attack would not have been made at all In the unlikely event that war had then broken out none the less, Russia at that time would have had allies England, France Po- land and perhaps some of the Balkan countries But Russia has since incurred universal dstrust first by the non aggression pact and by the attack

S1-A-YEAR PROBE

Senator Harry Truman is a friendy, mild-mannered Missourian, but to certain Defense brass-hats and One Dollar Men he's an ogre with horns.
 Truman is author and chairman of the special Senate committee to probe defense contracts, and he is determined that what happened in France won't happen here. He al- ready has some interesting data.
 Truman has discovered that a certain One Dollar Man on the staff of OPM Production Chief John Biggers has very large financial interest in the industry which he handles for the OPM This One Dollar Man did a lot of talking about looming shortage in his own industry and the Ikeli- hood of jump in prices. Then abruptly he changed his tune when another big gun in the same in- dustry declared there was no dan ! ger of a shortage and no need for price boost.
 Another item in Truman's files concerns a Biggers assistant whc had hot brush with the Securi- ties and Exchange Commission, and was required by a Federal court te

DIVIDENDS Vs. WAGES

More altruiStic than most big business leaders is Dollar a-Year Man Edward Stettinius, chairman of the giant U. s. Steel Corpora tion, which maintains cordial re- lations with SWOC, a CIO union Last year U. s. Steel paid stock holders $l00,0OO,0OO This year it should pay about 6,000,0O0.
 But now the Steel Workers union is demanding a wage boost. This new boost would cost the company about $56000,000-or just about the extra amount the company pro- posed to pay in dividends.
 Stettinius wants to pay the ad- ditional dividends. Labor wants to get the additional pay. Everybody wants something-just as did the unhappy people of France.

U.S.A.-ANOTHER FRANCE?

Most arresting Jackson Day speech was delivered in Atlanta, Georgia, the Presidents second ttate," where ex-Governor o. Max Garder was especially picked as speaker Well worth repetition, one portion of his speech read:
 What pity that we do not know the full tragedy of France She lies utterly prostrate, dying stabbed and bleeding to death from the inside
 Tn this connection, it seems we might we'll remember the story ot the fabled eagle that lay dying or the plains. In the hour of agony it's suffering was magnified wher it discovered that the shaft that had pierced its vitals had beer guided by a feather fallen from its own wing.
 Was the shaft that pierced the vitals of France guided by the fore es of Hiler, or was it guided by thc misguided of France?"
 Two chief factors caused the fal of France: CD sabotage by labor @ the refusal of big business tC put national defense ahead ol profits.
 Today, some of the same sort oi labor strikes and slowdowns which killed France are rampant in the U.SA.-led by minority of labor but with devastating effect upor production.
 Today, many U. S. big business leaders, as Le Creusot and the Comite des Forges did in France are putting die-hard labor policie: and dividends ahead of patriotism.

SATURDAY, APRIL 5


 Benefic aspects dominate today, although in the early hours ad- verse influences are active. There is a sign read as presaging for heads of big business perplexities to which labor unions contribute.
 Heart and Home: This is an au spicious sway under which to face conditions in a changing world and to prepare for future exigencies affecting the whole family. Strict economies are strongly recommend ed, because savings accounts will be most important in the future. Good news is indicated today, which is fortunate for the signing of contracts or for business with bans. The stars encourage women to prepare for service in certain branches of aviation.
 Business Affairs: This is most promising day for merchants. Trade in new lines of manufacture should be lively. Through this period of prosperity chemists and inventors will contribute greatly to the eco- homie development of the United States. This is promising date for launching new projects or for ex- banding well-established enterpris- es Aviation is under a rule of the stars presaging amazing success in large-scale production of airplanes.
 National Issues: The conscious ness that the United States cannot escape the most active part in the world war will be widespreads Sur prising events will units the peo- pie for a stubborn and efficint defense There is a sign read as presaging a naval engagement and there will be an incident in which our airplanes enroute to Canada are involved. This month is tomarX a page in history unlike any previ- ouSly recorded.
 International Affairs: Seismic disturbances as well as frighful conflict may be expected by the end of the month. Discontent will spread among the peoples under Nazi rule and revolutionary upris- ings may be expected before next autumn. Britain is to sustain an attempted invasion that is under the most evil portents for Eng lands brave defenders. Ultimate victory is indicated, but there are to be supreme tests of heroism. 1 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of good fortune and definite progress.

man board he named to study freight rates.
 The board was created by the Transportation Act of 194O as a love to settle the old controversy over regional freight differentials. This has been stormy issue in Congress for years, the South and West claiming dis rimina tion against them in favor of the so- called official erritory'-namely that part of the country lying north of the Potomac and east of the Mississippi.
 The South and West expected to have at least one member each on the board, which is empowered to recommend important rail rate changes. But to their outraged sur- prise the three men named by Roo- sevelt are all from the official ter ritory."
 1 They are Wayne Coy of Indiana, right hand man of Federal Secur- ity Administrator Paul McNutt; Charles West of Ohio, former Un- der Secretary of Interior; and Nell son Smith of New Hampshire. The President made the appointments without consulting any of his Sen ate leaders, most of them South erners.
 This was particularly thoughtless because the board has to be con- firmed by the Senate. Also, chair man of the Interstate Commerce Committee, which has jurisdiction over the matter, is Senator Burt Wheeler of Montana, bitter White House foe; and the leading New Deal member is Lister Hill, an Ala baman who feels strongly about the rate issue.
 Hill has no personal complaint against the three appointees, but he is up in arms over Roosevelt $

 Here is an effective way to win support for Landon and Knox If you use envelopes in your pay roll, either to contain currency Ol checks, or can make use of the en- velopes in your payroll, we will be glad to supply you with all you may need, if you will use them as indicated This way of bring ing another 'ockeyed New Deal law to the workers attention is worthy of your immediate cooperation
 AS head of the OPM ordnance division under Biggers, Clancy SUD- ervises the mammoth ordnance pro- gram of the Army and Navy.
