.REAL INCOME is UP

In spite of growing fears that prices
are about to run away with the wage earn
ers pay envelope, American workers IN
May Of this year had the highest real in
come Of their lives, report from the New
York Bureau Of Industrial Service reveals.
The figures were compiled in cities and
rural areas throughout the nation, and IN
cluded defense centers, where, as in Key
West, an influx of workers has upped hous-
ing costs.
Renting on national average, cost
$1.0I in'May, as compared to $1.00 in May
year ago. the survey reveals, while food
moved up two cents on the basis of dollar
81 .02 in May, 1941, for food of the same
quantity and quality as could be purchased
for 81 90 in May, 1910.
Wearing apparel for men, women and
children, showed no increase over costs OF
a year ago, while miscellaneous items, IN
Guiding amusements, haircuts, manicures,
sporting goods and similar items, increased
from S1.00 in May, 1910, to SLOT in May,
1941.
On the other side of the ledger, the
American public's cash. income in the year
had moved upward from $1.o0 to $1.31, a
real income increase of SIT on the dol
lar.
Wage earners, feeling the greatest
boost Of any class of worker in the nation,
were earning STAT in May, 1941, for every
81 90 they earned in that month year ago.
Salary checks also were bigger than a
year ago, up to $1,21 on the dollar, and
farm income business earnings, rents and
royalties had produced earnings of $1.18,
compared with $1.00 year ago.
Living costs undoubtedly have in
creased since May, but earnings appear to
be keeping pace For the benefit of the en-
tire nation. it is to be hoped that both car
be maintained at somewhere near their
present level.

THE RICH UKRAINE

Situated in southwestern Russia and
bordering on German-controlled territory,
the Ukraine is one of the richest agricul-
tural areas in the world, embracing about
100000 square miles, or nearly five-sixths
the size of Texas. The population is close to
40 million, more than 80 per cent being en-
gagged in agriculture.
Three-fourths of the Ukraine's soil is
black and exceedingly fertile, making it
the best grain country in Europe, and we'll
adapted to the growing of all farm crops
Livestock raising has increased greatly in
recent years, as have silk-worm breeding
and Bookkeeping
The wealth of the Ukraine is not con-
fined to agriculture, however as the region
produces more than one-half of Russias
iron and coal, besides manganese and salt
It has the largest waterpower development
in Europe, and more than 100000 electri-
fled farms.
During the internal troubles in Russia
following the First World War the Ukraine
established its independence and was the
scene of anti-Bolshevik movements, but
these finally collapsed and it again came
under the control of Moscow
Although Hitler stated in his book
''Mein Kampf" that the Ukraine must
eventually belong to Germany, Stain re-
fused an alliance with Britain and France
in 1889 and made treaty with the Nazis
instead. Now Hitler seems destined to gain
not only the rich Ukraine, but most of the
remainder of Russia as well.
1t is too early to predict what effect
the invasion of Russia will have on the out
come of the general war, but it seems likely
that the power of the Stain regime will be
destroyed.

it will take three to four years to finish

it will probably be 1916 before they will be

the world picture may be altered, but they

Japan is casting covetous glances
southwark, aware that possession of the
Pacific isles will solve their raw material
and colonization problems. But holding
them in check, undoubtedly, is their respect
