 PROPHET
 No. i prophet of the isolation cause is Senator Burt Wheeler. Two years ago, Wheeler also made an interesting prophecy regarding the railroads.
 To stimulate tagging heavy goods industries in l03s. the President sent to Congress the so-called Lend-Spend bill containing a $500 ,0O0, 900 item whereby the gov- ernment would finance the rail- roads in order to buy thousands of freight ears and other needed equipment.
 Wheeler vehemently opposed this, contended the carriers had plenty of freight cars, and as chairman of the Interstate Ccm- meece committee, was able to kill the plan.

New Haven, Conn, August 28. - Unless a much large number of high school boys and girls enter upon the study of pharmacy immediately a very serious shortage of pharma- cists will result within the next few years, Dr. Henry s. Johnson, dean of the College of Pharmacy of the University of Connecticut, predicted upon his return here from the meet ings of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy and American Pharmaceutical Association, held in Detroit last week, which he and Dr. A. N. Jorgensen, president of the University of Connecticut attended.
 Despite the fact that all local Selective Service boards of the state have cooperated wholeheartedly in postponing temporarily the induc- tion of most pharmacy students, to allow them to finish their course, the number graduating in the next three years will in no measure meet the demand of the profession in this state for trained men, Dr. Johnson said, and other parts of New Eng

mand for freight cars. But they predicted a freight traffic increase of only 125 per cent this year or 40,S00, 900 carloads, and already the figure is over IT per cent. Defense experts estimate 1t will top 20 per cent - 46,OOO, ,O0O car loads = bginning in September, when the heavy fall harvest move ments get under way.
 That will mean 2 shortage of 135,0OO freight cars, approxi- mateIy the number 1t was pro- posed to buy under the Lend Spend plan killed by wheeler.
 Defense experts believe the only way to avert 8 catastrophe trans portation muddle such as the coun- try experienced in the World War is Q drastic rationing of freight cars. plus a huge expan- sion of trucking through the use of the vast fleet of trucks owned by the army. But they say noth- ing about the gasoline!
