NINE MILLION HOMES HELD
NEEDED FOR LOW PAY GROUP

More than nine million Ameri-
can families below 81 800 a year
need new homes. If we would
build them we would cure the
depression to a Surprising 'ex-
tent by getting idle men back
to work" and finding outlet for
idle investment funds"
This vast opportunity for eco
Inomic recovery through home
building is pointed out and de-
sribed in detail in a report by
economists and housing experts
of the "T. N. E. c." better
known as Senator Joseph c.. o.
Mahoney's Monopoly Investigat-
ing committee.
The report is a reminder that
the national defense program is
not the only way to put men,
money and machines to work, be-
cause this can be done by clear
ing slums and providing decent
homes for the American people.
"The difficulty, however," the
report says, "is that under the
present set-up the housing indus
try is geared to provide homes
primarily for families earning
$4,000 or more per year.
1--WE build largely 5or this, linn
tied group because the home
building industry has followed
traditional practices and failsc
to keep up with progressive me-
thods that have enabled other in
dustries to extend their markets
to low-income groups. Moreover,
many of the raw materials cf
the building industry are COZ
centrated in few hands, with
a controlled and inf,eAible sys-
tenn"
The government is trying 20
break up the price fixing and re-
straints which are holding back
the building industry, the report
says.
It points out that construction
costs are highest in some cities
where building trades wage
rates are lowest, and lowest
where labor costs are highest.
Other important facts disclosed
at the O'Mahoney committees
hearings are cited to explode
the idea that "high wages" are
the cause of the high cost of
housing.
On the other hand, the report
explains that high interest rates
are a real obstacle to home con-
struction, and that rental hous-
ing for the lower half of the
middle income group $4,000 20
$4,000 might well oz stimulat-

ONE great great as was before the IA,

ONE of the great marvels of
- science was the discovery
years ago of the fact that if one or
more points of a star-fish are cut
off, the animal will grow the
points again and in a short time
be as big and sound as it was
originally. Discovery of the prin-
ciple of regeneration in some ami
mails caused as much hubbub in
the scientific world as would
Sally Rand at a salesmen's con-
vention.
State tax officials are discover
ing that gasoline taxes follow the
star-fish principle of regeneration,
and that if state cuts l cent off
its gasoline tax rate, the revenue

as great as it was before the tax
cut.
Since 1884 gasoline tax revenue
of most of the states has in
creased so per cent or more. Year
after year more families become
automobile owners. Also, people
tend to use their cars more. Un-
der these conditions of expanding
revenue, most states could have
reduced their rates since 1884 and
Trey would now be collecting just
as much money at the low rates
as they collected at the higher
rates.
The gasoline levy is the great
est "star fish" tax in all history.
Its great powers of regeneration
should stimulate many states t
reduce their rates.

estimate, the enemy would have from
two to four days warning of a con-
voy's approach, which would be am
pie time for the mobilization of Ger
man bomber reinforcements all the
way from the North and Black Seas
to the African coast.
|. Carriers Too Vulnerable.
What spread of targets, like q
flock of ducks in flight over a hunt
ers' head, when the dive -bombers
and torpedo-carrying planes, with
the aid of submarines, loosed their
bitzkrieg on these 100 ships for the
last 200 or 300 miles before they
were even in sight of the African
coast!
One bomb through the decks and
bottom OF a troop transport, and
5000 men might be plunged into the
sea; or so tanks, 100 guns and 100,-
600 rounds of ammunition might be
lost. Our fighter planes, rising from
our aircraft carriers would make a
gallant effort in defense, but the
aircraft carriers place is the open
sea. 1t is too vulnerable to approach
near land bases.
Suppose half our ships did reach
the harbor at Dakar, after silenc-
ing the defense batteries. There IS
insufficient pier space for even 20
ships, and we should still be under
bombing attack. So we would be if
we tried to establish a beachhead by
dribbling men and material ashore
in open boats.
Bull's-Eye Targets.
If we went south to FreetoWn,
British Sierre Leone. we should have
tc advance 500 miles through tough
tropical country to Dakar, while
from French North Africa to Dakar
there are available roads for enemy
reinforcements which enable quicker
transit than for us over 3,400 miles
If ocean. And all our ships carrying
reinforcements and supplies for our
garrison would have to run the
gamut not only of the submarine
danger of l917-18, but the bombers
Of 1941.
There is also talk of taking the
Cape Vedre Islands. These very
small islands would be bull's-eye
targets for bombers, based on the
African coast 300 miles away, while
we were making our landing, leveling
volcanic rock for air fields and set
ting up hasty defense.
In any plan of hemisphere de-
fense, both the Dakar and the Cape
Verde ventures had better wait until
we have well-equipped and forti-
fed base on the coast of Brazil to
cover our side of the Atlantic. The
maintenance of an expeditionary
force on the African coast would
divert an enormous amount of ma
terial from aid to the British for our
own use. Such are the hard military
facts for the amateur strategists to
consider, without any "defeatist'
implication when our ARMY and
Navy will go wherever ordered in a
do or die" spirit.

Insofar as it has been pos
sible to ascertain, it appears the
German raiders rely on two
secret bases, one at Sac Vicente
and the other at Sac Tiago, two
islands belonging to the Cape
Verde Archipelago. Supplies from
stores on these islands are being
hauled in trucks to the small
harbors. There they are being
loaded in small motor vessels,
of not more than 10 feet draft,
which put to sea, generally at
night, and meet the German
raiders-mostly submarines, for
the time being-at a rendezvous
not more than so or 100 miles
from the islands. 1t is inter-
esting to note that the Robin
Moor was sunk 500 miles off the
Portuguese African Archipelago.
Tankers Unmolested by Germans.
Fuel, mostly from the United
States, reaches these bases regu-
larly. An American from the
Vacuum Oil Co. has at Sac VII
cente an agent who has been in
business for years, prior to the
outbreak of the war. While the
Vacuum Oil Co. is not connect
ed with the matter-it merely
sells oil to a client-the Sac
Vicente dealer knows well with
whom he is doing business. The
profits made are, of course,
enormous. According to reliable
reports, not single tanker carry
ing fuel to those two islands has
ever been molested by the Ger
man raiders.
The poor poulation in the
two islands is strongly pro-
American. They get the little
they have to eat and some cloth
ing from the United States. Some
of them have relatives who have
settled in this country-particu-
larly in Massachusetts,, Rhode
Island and Connecticut. Earn
ing good wages in this country,
these relatives send their kin
food and money. Since the popu-
lation is small and want is great,
the parcels-worth perhaps only
$40 or $40 here-are priceless
possessions in the islands. Ev-
erybody partakes of the gifts.

in Dakar, having turned belliger-
emily hostile to collaboration" with
Germany, should welcome us with
open arms.
Strategically, on the map, the pro-
posal to take Dakar on the African
coast, 1900 miles across from Cape
San Rogue, Brazil, is most appeal
ing on the ground that to hold the
outpostS of Dakar and the Cape
Verde Islands is to close the gate
way for attack on South America
| Occupation of Dakar, the theorists
also contend, would be of great aid
to Britain in beating Germany,
when the contrary is true until Ger
man air power is mastered.
These armchair strategists seem
to forget all the recent evidence
that warships cannot afford to
challenge superior air power oper-
ating from nearby land bases; and
also that Dakar is nearly twice the
distance, 3,400 miles from our At
lantic coast, than Dakar is from
Brazil.
The French have a present gar
rison of $4,000 men in Dakar. 1t
has coast defense batteries, a good
air field and is a submarine base.
There Is chain of air bases north
ward along the African coast in a
region where more air fields can
be readily prepared.
Invitation to Disaster.
To send over an expeditionary
force in increments to Dakar, as we
did to France in 1918. when they
went to safe ports behind the trench
wall in the infancy of air power,
would be an invitation to massacre
in detail. We shall see that our
initial force to Dakar should not be
less than 100000 men. With them
must go tanks, guns, ammunition
food and all kinds of engineering
transport and maintenance equip
ment. -e, --s
Four hundred thousand tons of
shipping would be too modest an es-
innate for an expedition that might
require 100 ships and a powerful
naval escort, inclusive of all types
from destroyers to battleships.
Grant that this armada could
leave our coast unknown to German
spies. and the slighter possibility
that it could be concealed until it
was within TOO or 300 miles of the
African coast, then air scouts from
the African coast would spot it and

and direction.

Investigation Of the sinking
of the Robin Moor is likely to
produce sensational develop
ments. Not only has it been
ascertained that the American
ship was torpedoed by a Ger
man submarine, but it will be
shown that the German sea and
air raiders are operating with in
creasing success in the South
Atlantic in hope of making that
route between the Western
Hemisphere and Britain as un-
safe as the North Atlantic route.
Successful operations of the
German raiders are due to the
fact that they are being supplied
with food and fuel from the
Cape Verde Islands, probably
without the official knowledge
and connivance of the Portuguese
government, according to private
information received here.

dence. Britain had no army ex-
cept the one evacuated from Dun
kerque. The British Isles were
completely undefended. The air
force was inadequate and the
islands had no heavy guns.
In order rapidly to build up
production, Britain was depen-
dent on the United States. The
United States was on 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. Musso-
lini had a considerable fleet and
air force.
Now, after a year, let us look
at the picture.
Hitler failed in an attempt to
get control of the air over Brit
ain in September.
Balkans Less an Asset.
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
deranged the transportation sys-
tenn.
According to plan, the Italians
should have conquered Egypt
during the winter, and had ac-
tually prepared a huge force for
two-pronged attack from Libya
and Ethiopia.
Instead, Italy has been elm
mated by the Greeks and the
British as fighting force. More
than one-half Of the Italian
Navy has been destroyed. Her
air force is demoralized. Italy's
huge East African empire has
been conquered, releasing sub
stantial forces to deal with any
attack from Syria.
Hitler has promises from Stain
that will be reafiirmed over and
over again and not kept.
Even If the Germans 20 into
the Ukraine to organize it, what
they will get will be of doubtful
quantity.
The political situation in Eu-
rope is dreadful. The German
armies have looted Europe once.
They cannot do it again.

which is taking advantage of the
international situation to make
great fortunes. The natives call
them Hidalgos. These men are in
full sympathy with the Nazi
cause, not so much because they
believe in totalitarianism but be-
cause there is cash in 1t.
Pre-War Contacts.
The contacts Of the Hidalgos
with the Reich date from the
days before the war. They bought
cheap German products with
dollars so badly needed by the
Reich in those days. The Cape
Verde magnates purchased the
dollars from the natives at a
very low rate of exchange. Thus
the Germans got their foreign
currency and, small as it was,
1t helped. The natives had to pay
a high price for the German
goods. Since the Hidalgos made
huge profits before the war and
are making greater profits now,
these men are interested in help
ing the Germans and are CO.
operating whole e-heartedly with
them.
The activities of big business"
of Sac Vicente and Sac Tiago
are being assisted by the local
officials sent from Lisbon. These
officials are poorly paid and are
tempted by timely gifts from the
business houses. Heads of the
firms occasionally act as diplo-
matte agents for Berlin, and are
the go-betweens for the German
government and the Portuguese
officials.
Germans Send Tourists"
On the island of Sal-another
small bit of land belonging to the
archipelago-is an excellent air
port. 1t is used as a stop-over
by an airline now entirely in the
hands of the Reich. The airline
is said to be taking over Ger
man tourists" and "technicians"
who are spreading rapidly in
almost every inhabited island of
the archipelago.
Whether the Lisbon govern
ment can do something about
the situation is difficult to say.
In all probability it would rather
wash its hands off the whole
affair, since any definite step to
prevent the officials from playing
with the Nazis might bring forth
some new pressure from Berlin.
And Portugal is trying hard to
keep out of the international
mess.
But authorities in Washington
and in London are taking a grave
view of the situation. While both
governments are reluctant to
intervene in Portugal's internal
affairs, the existing situation in
these small islands, which only
a year ago were hardly known to
anybody but specialists on geog-
raphy, is actually jeopardizing
Britain's second life line. 1t is
probably true that for the time
being German raiders have not
actually used ports of the islands.
But the fact that they are being
supplied from the stores which
Portuguese citizens are able to
purchase in this country and are
selling TO the Germans makes
the whole situation dangerous.
