 London, July 29. - (Upl
 - Prime Minister Winston Churchill said today that the United States lis advancing in rising wrath and convir- tion to the very verge of waTs' but warned neither Russia nor the United States would win the war for Britain. Churchill spoke in the House of commons, opening a full dress debate on British war production. He said: "
 Invasion dangers are still .acizte and British armed forces have been ordered to be in c state of fa1ll preparedness by September 1.
 Russia is fighting off the German onslaught with immense strength.
 Britain is slowly "but iinpressively's forging ahead in the battle of the Atlantic, aided by ship production far in excess of the World War period.
 Maxi Superiority Broken
 Germany's air superiority '.haa been broken" and Britain has doubled her bomb discharge on Ger many, will double it again in three months, and redouble it ip the fol~ lowing six months.
 Churchill made his statement ak categorically rejecting demands tlaae he appoint c single minister o2 production to coordinate the entire task of Britain,s war time output
 He said he would willingly rish a vote of confidence on the issue asserting that such an appointment would add an additional burden to the war effort and cause delay.

 Issues Warning
 The prime minister warned against excesses of optimism cK pessimism.
 There are grounds for optilnisms he said. There is no doubt tlaat Russia is striking back with ilns mense strength. It was a fact tllak the United States is giving us aid on a gigantic scale.

MUSSOLIM HAS
 SETH BIRTHDAY
No Celebration Because Italian Premier Never Ob-
 serves His Birthdays
By ALDO FORTE

United Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 Rome, July 29.-(UP)-Premier Benito MusSolini was 58 years old today, but as usual the anniversary passed unobserved, without cakes or candles or even the good wishes of his associates.
 Still an erect and vigorous figure, Il Duce makes no concession to the passing years. He never observes his birthday. There is gtrtict ban even on family reunions and, in accord ance with his wishes, he received no greetings to remind him of the day.
 If anything, he tackled his long, arduous daily routine with even more vigor today. Although near ing the 6O-year mark, Mussolini is an excellent example of physical fit- ness, which he attributes to strict diet, plenty of exercise and hard work.
 Like Adolf Hitler, Il Duces is a vegetarian. He never smokes or drinks liquors. Only when deliver ing a toast does he sip wine or champagne.

Record Breaking Pace
Predicted for Industry
u. Experts Agree
1929 Peak Will Be
Topped in 194l
By CECIL b. DICKSON
f,,t New Service star Csrrespe.Se.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4. - The
United States can look forward to
its biggest business boom in his
tory in 1871, according to a con-
sensus OF government experts
today.
The governments rearmament
program will tax the full capacity
of industry and absorb virtually
all of the employable idle within a
few months. the experts forecast.
Records Of the great boom year
Of 1929. which did not fall in 1910
are expected to be surpassed in
lS41.
There Is possibility that ma
tional income in the new year will
exceed $S4, 900, 000. 900. topping the
1929 figure of around $50, 900, 900, =
100. the experts agreed.
National income for 1910 was
estimated at $4,000, 000, 900, four
billion more than last year. Ma
tional income in December, high
est for the year. was at the annual
rate of 5000, 100000. but this
was offset by the less active
months early in 1910 before the
armament program was launched
when Hitler's blitzkreig swept
western Europe
Contrary to the usual seasonal
declines in industrial output in
January. February and March
activity is expected by the govern
ment economists 10 be increased,
with many industries adding new
shifts of workers to meet the ad-
ministration's demand for speedy
production of war material.

American industry has made
further significant progress during
the past year in the face of for

and chaotic conditions in many
sections of the world.
