trusted to promulgate rules affecting unmarried Ger man mothers that attracted worldwide attention. He dramatzed his regulations by making public a letter to such mother in which he offered to serve as godfather for her child.
 Tn war, which demands the life of many of the best men," he wrote, every new life is of special importance for the nation. When therefore. racally unobjectonable young who go to war leave children who carry their blood into future eratons the children of equally heredariy healthy girls of proper age whose immediate marriage for some impossible. will be taken to maintain this valuable national treasure.

The highest service that woman can render to the community is to contribute to the maintenance of the nation through racally healthy children"
 Just few months ago he composed for the people Of Germany this prayer"
 Almighty God You gave us Der Fuehrer. You blessed his battle with past victory You gave him power to create snd defend a new, great and free Germany. Now give power to help him to the limit of abilities by fighting and working for everlasting and beautiful Germany and grant that we be worthy of Your blessing"
 The speaker in each case was Rudolf Hess, now prisoner of in England. What aid England can hope to gain from man with such convictions is very little.
 Rudolf Hess would have to have changed pro- foundly to be of any assistance to the embattled democratic peoples of the world throwing off the Nazi yoke being pressed upon their shoulders.

INSIDE STUFF

One inside reason why Emil Schram left the Reconstruction Fi- nance Corporation to head the New York Stock Exchange was that Jesse Jones has insisted on passing upon every penny spent by the REC, even though Jesse long ago was supposed to have graduated to other things. Schram resented Jesse's constant intrusion, hinted that he was no babe in -arms, finally got out. :. New Hampshires two Republican Senators, pro- British Bridges and anti British Tobey, are anything but pals. Bridges thinks Tobey's isolationist stand will mean Tobey's nolitical death. Mayor La Guardia declined with thanks FDRs request that he head the new Civil Defense Commission, indicating to the Boss that he wants cabinet job or nothing. Roosevelt needs a man for Civil Defense who will make more of it than merely parading old men on drill grounds. He wants to clean scrap iron from city dumps, and put across various civic reforms. On May IT William J. Donaldson, Jr., popular Superintendent of the House press gallery, will celebrate his 30th year with the press gallery, in which he started as a messenger. Donaldson has attended every national poli- tical convention since 1912.

WHAT HE SAID

In Germany there was man who served each Christmas Eve-a period when annually there were resurgngs of the old-tme German religious spirit despite official efforts to change Christmas into a pagan festival-as Germanys spokesman to her sons and daughters abroad Each year he broadcast through the world message
 In 1886 his message was a pledge of peace, an attack on Russia as the Boshevst threat to peace, and an expression of gratitude to Herr Hitler the ground that he was the worlds safeguard against Bolshevism
 In 1897 he said again that Germany wanted peace Emphaticaly he declared: We do not want war"
 In 1898 (the year in which Germany took Aus tria and the Sudeten of Czechoslovakia, the year of Munich) his Christmas message noted that Providence blessed the path of Adolf Hitler during the past year"
 In lsse the war having started his Christmas Eve message was broadcast from German destroyer Speaking of the West Wall, behind which the Ger mans then preparing for the next springs con- quest of the Low Countries and France he said: "The barrels of 10000 guns are ready to warn any approaching that this land is ours.
 This German nation,' he continued, feels that God sent man to right nameless wrongs which afflicted us to guarantee our freedom, to bring at last eternal peace to tortured world. And this is our prayer God You gave nation Your bless ing We, God, will win Your blessing in the coming year We will earn Your blessing in battle, in the battle for country, for the man whom You gave us"
 One of his regular tasks to address the an- nual meetings of Germans Living Abroad, organi- zation to which delegated the work of spreading the Nazi philosophy and preparing for whatever it might lead to. In 1888 he told such meetng-at which there delegates from 51 countries, incud ing the United states-that your organizations may be suppressed and your insignia forbidden, but not your National Socialist spirit and hearts,

ALREADY SHORT.

Already there is serious power shortage in the key defense area of Buffalo, according to the report.
 Another shortage will be in Ten nessee, where requirements by the end of this year are put at 180,000 kilowatts above what is now avail able. Others are predicted in Georgia, Alabama, the crucial Pitts burgh area. Arkansas. Louisiana, northern Colorado and Oregon. Adding to these difficulties is the serious drought, which is pairing hydrOelectric resources.
 The problem obviously calls for drastic action. One immediate measure under consideration is to put the entire country on daylight saving time. To conserve electric power, both the British and Ger mans have moved up the clock two

fense chiefs on aluminium require ments, which led to the current grave shortage, apparently have been repeated in the equally vital field of electrical power.
 Despite all the New Deal power projects at Bonneville, IVA, and Grand Coulee, confidential report just received by the OPM Produc- tion Planning Board predicts an 800, ,000-kilowatt power shortage by 1942. Such deficiency could ser iously retard defense output.
 The report, compiled by several prominent OPM experts, estimates that when defense production reaches peak next year, the na- tion's power needs will increase by at least 100000 kilowatts. This will be partially met by 600O00 kilo- watts which can be produced by existing power plant reserves. But that still leaves shortage of 800,- 900 kilowatts.
 According to the secret report, here is how the miscalculation came about:
 The utilities informed the Federal Power Commission that the coun- try's power capacity would reach 24.239,979 kilowatts by the end of 1940, increase to 30,757,437 this year, and to 33,2O5, ,263 in 1942. These figures are correct. But defense needs were grossly underestimated.
 For example: in December, l94O power consumption exceeded by 22 per cent the estimate for the month that the utilities had given the EPIC in September. Their figure was 25, ,l43, TOP kilowatts; actual consump- tion was 27,752,856.

 It was not anybody in Washington who brought Americans generally to apprehend their peril It was the grim awful fact of the collapse of France the France which had been, without realizing it. a barrier between us and a ruthless enemy intent on world domination

gether in unity of high purpose Clubs and other organizations are well directed today.
 Business Affairs: Since the sec- ond World War is primarily con- flict of machines, strikes will be- come more and more perilous to the defense program and the peo- pie of the United States will at this time have reason to be ex- tremely anxious. Although statis- tics are reassuring, figures this month may prove misleading since industry will be so generally iu- volved in war work that exact data will be difficult to obtain. The mak- ing of machine tools and minor parts will be widely scattered and thus various sections of the coun- try will be affected in different de- grees There is an evil portent for coming weeks.
 National Issues: Under this plan- etary government Americans who have been carefree and unable to believe that it is possible the Vest ern Hemisphere to become involved in a European or an Asiatic con- flict will show evidences of fear or even panic as the tremendous task of preparation for war is ob- structed by labor demands. Tn e -seers counsel wise patience on the part of the people, for there is a sign forecasting splendid coopera- ton among workers of many trades.
 International Affairs: Sudden and surprising turns in the tides of war are forecast. Effectiveness
 of the United States diplomacy will be evident in the Orient, despite Japan's activities. A great turning
 point in world affairs has been wis., toned at the end of this month, 9

cessors, instead of visiting the Unit ed States en route home, stopped off at Paris or London. The United States was given wide berth.
 In the last year, however, two things have happened. CD The United States has become the trans portation hub of the Western Hem- isphere. It is now much easier to travel from Europe to Argentina via New York.
 (2) The United States is now the political, financial and trade center for the entire Western Hemisphere. One hundred and one problems af- fecting Argentina have to be settled in the United States.
 FAMOUS SCRUGHAM
 To harassed Argentines, worried over the loss of their European markets, there is one man in the United States next to Roosevelt who is the best known-but unlike Roosevelt, the least loved. He bears the name of Scrugham.
 Most people in the United States have never heard of James Graves Scrugham. But everyone in Argen- tina has. They know him as the Congressman from Nevada who in troduced legislation preventing the purchase of Argentine canned beef by the U. s. Army and Navy, and who, if it had not been for the per- sonal intervention of President Roosevelt, would have got away with it.
 What ArgentineS can't understand IS how one Congressman, represent ing a state with a smaller popula- tion than the 100000 necessary for admission to the Union, can undo all the Good Neighbor policy.
 Even Senator McCarran, who rep 'esents lot of Nevada cattlemen, nad decided to go along with the Roosevelt policy of permitting at least some Argentine canned beef to be sold to the Army and Navy during the war emergency. F. E. Mollin, head of the American Live stock Association, and Senator OMahoney of Wyoming, great protector of the cattlemen, had de- cided likewise.
 But the one lone Congressman from Nevada, MT. Scrugham, came near beating them all. And Scrug. ham Is one of the problems Senol Guinszu will have to reckon witt as Foreign Minister of Argentina.
