In their other fight Armstrong

For Economic Warfare

Economic warfare against the Axis
powers must be waged well to back
up the Army and Navy in the hard
tasks which they must shoulder IN
the days of battle ahead" Vice Presi-
dent Wallace declared yesterday in
a special article for the Foreign
Commerce Weekly.
Mr.. Wallace said the Economic
Warfare Board, of which he is
chairman, is prepared to direct this
military phase of the war" In
a businesslike manner"
The Nation today he wrote, "is
girding itself for all-out war on the
economic as well as the military
front.
In this economic war, we are not
stopping to recruit vast new army
of workers. Instead, we are swiftly
mobilizing existing agencies and
gearing them into a smooth working
machine that can get results.
The time necessary to locate, hire
and train new organization has
been saved; the Government pay
roll does not for this purpose have
to be greatly increased.
"Overcrowded Washington does
not have to find space for a new
wave of residents to carry on this
work. Overtaxed Office space does
not have to take on the extremely
heavy new strain which it otherwise
would"
