The Army air forces opened al
intensive campaign over the weel
end for 100000 applicants for fligh1
training by using newspaper adver'
tisements in scores of cities.
The campaign was concentrated
officials said, on universities and
colleges whose students are partic-
ularly eligible for aviation cadet
training
Omcials said the campaign was
possibly the most intensive under
taken by the Army, rejecting the
need for flyers In the light OF
announced plans to expand the all
forces to 1000, 900 men by the end
Of this year, possibly doubling II

Men between 18 and 26, inclusive
who meet requirements were given
the choice of three means of enter
ing Army air training. They may
enlist as privates and serve until
the opportunity arises for flight
training They may enlist in the
air force enlisted reserve and await
for their calls to active duty. Col
lege men and high school seniors on
entering college may join the air
force enlisted reserve and continue
their studies until called, provided
they maintain satisfactory scholas-

This Changing World
State Department Press Relations Unit
Proised for Superior Hondline Of Problems

II these naval ofYicers do re-
ceive information they are COM
PEELED to keep 1t to themselves.
Their principal interest is in
supplying pictures which, 1t Is
true, are often interesting--and
handouts about matters of
only secondary importance.
Conferences Routine.
The press conferences of the
War and Navy Secretaries are
continued more as q tribute to
the democratic ideal Of an in
formed public than as an actual
attempt to provide news for the
country. It must be realized. of
course, that In wartime many
things cannot be divulged, but
secrecy Is excessively maintained.
The principal purpose Of the
"secretary's conference" Is to re-
assure the public rather than TO
inform 1t, even If such reassur-
ances sometimes are at variance
with reality.
The State Department handles
the situation quite differently. II
has its 'hush-hush" division, of
course, but 1t Is of little i'm
portance to the public. For the
most part State Department
ofncials are willing to discuss
this country's various diplomatic
problems In relation to enemies.
neutrAls and friends without
hesitation.
Moreover, the State Depart
ment's division Of current in
formation recently inaugurated
weekly "off the record" confer
ences with the Undersecretary Of
State when the Secretary Is busy
or absent. These supplement the
daily conferences with the Secre-
tary and are attended exclusively
by American citizens represent
ing American news agencies and
newspapers. Foreigners are ad-
mitted to the daily conferences
with the Secretary.
"Od the record" conferences
are Of real value to the public,
because reporters receive inn
portant background. Extracts
from confidential dispatches are
sometimes read, on the definite
agreement that these not be used
and must serve only for better
understanding Of the complex
international situation. This helps

Largely Up 10 Henderson.
Operation Of this program Is ex.
pected to be In the hands Of Mr..
Leon Henderson. It win greatly ex-
pand Mr.. Henderson's power and
greatly enlarge his scope. There is
some dread in Warrington As to
the personal effect upon Mr.. Hen
derson, who Is not much used to
power and has had little experience
as an administrator. It Is possible
that he may exercise this new au-
thority in way to justify the belief
Of his friends that he is . man Of
great ability, high character and
good Judgment. On the other hand,
it may prove the contention Of his
critics that he is an esotistical, ex-
tremely garrulous and altogether
unsound New Dealer with . con-
genital hostility to business.
Which description Of Mr.. Hender,
son is the true one is very impor-
tant to the people as q whole. How
he wields his new power will affect
the lives Of us all, and 1t Is merely
enlightened selfishness to wish him
well. Certainly he will be wise not
to indulge the tendency to over
organize already exhibited In the
o. p. A., which he heads. There are
In his present organization far too
many people. His machine is over
manned. The work could be done
better with fewer employees. The
report Is that In the effort to con-
troll imitation, now about TO be made,
the addition of many thousands Of
paid workers is contemplated. The
estimate Is that the cost Of operation
will be between $l50.000, 900 and
$3.50 ,000. 900 q year.
No such enormous payroll expan-
sion Is necessary. The field work,
it Is contended, can be done by local
committees more. effectively and
more economically than by q horde
OF paid jobholders. The erection Of
q gigantic bureaucracy as the flrst
step In price control will be q great
mistake. It would add to the con-
fusion and cost but not to efficiency.
In addition, an unwieldy and unduly
expensive organization. soon, or late,
is sure to- invite congressional in-,
pestigation and breed trouble. It Is
to be hoped that reports of the
contemplated expansion are exag.

ter by what name it is called thu
facts remain the same. In thi,
case the basic fact Is that, by reason
of the vast war expenditure. the
danger of the cost of commodities
getting beyond control and rising
literally to ruinous heights has be-
come so acute that strong and i'm.
mediate action is imperative.
It is now clear to many formerly
Indifferent oficials that further con-
tinuation Of the temporizing and
vacillation which has marked the
handling of this grave business in
wolves real national peril. The real
ity of this appears not to have been
fully grasped until q few weeks
ago, but in the last 10 days there
have been almost continuous White
House conferences on the subject
1t is. of course, true that had the
administration acted 1s months ago
when the danger was flrst pointed
out, the problem today would be
infinitely less formidable and far
less drastic steps would need to be
taken.
Baruch Idea Favored.
It grows monotonous to saw that
the plan which Mr.. B. M. Baruch
then proposed and which was ig-
nored is now about to be adopted.
That has been said so often and
about so many things. But ap-
parently that is exactly what has
happened again. There will be de-
viations, Of course, but the main
features urged by Mr.. Baruch many
times in the past 20 years as an
antidote to imitation probably have
been accepted. These include profit
control. q very steep tax program,
very rigid economy in non-defense
expenditures and flexible ceilings
over rents. wages and commodity
prices. Time and again Mr.. Baruch
has insisted that ceilings over wages,
food, commodities and rents were
not enough. Effective price control
could only be achieved by combining
these things with the tax program,
with profit control and with econ

or to picnics on gas--walking is
. superior sport, and bridge and
picnics are dispensable.
But how the farmer Is going
10 get his crops TO market, or his
necessities delivered; how he is
going 10 run his trucks and trac-
tors; how people are going to
heat their houses and factories
keep their wheels running: how
non-omcial war efforts requiring
transportation are to be carried
on, and even a war life conducted
without plentiful oil is banning.
To put the best face on a bad
situation, we must think OF the
dilemma OF both our friends and
our enemies. When was in
England last summer I failed to
see many old and dear friends
because II was quite impossible
for them TO come up from the
country, even distances Of 30 or
20 miles, because there was no
gas and inadequate railroad
transportation - that is, they
couldn't get to the station, 10 or
IL miles away. Yet there was
enough gas to run the war.
The Germans are running cars
on charcoal. and II they do not
conquer oil this summer they will
be In q bad way for their essen
tial war industries. And in the
whole OF Europe q gallon Of gas
Is more precious than q gallon of
champagne, which is being re-
distilled into alcohol to mix with
gasoline.
The Germans have to conquer
oil. and even II they do. they are
faced with immense difficulties
In the transportation Of 1t to the
places where 1t Is essential.
And what this means, we are
beginning now to know.
4 \ 4 4
Problem Of Transportation.
Now. Of course, defeatist peo-
pie are saying, Don't put any
confidence In the German oil
shortage; they'll manage; they
always manage; they have no
insoluble problems; II they con-
quer the oil, they will trans
port It."
There Is something In what
they say, but 1t seems to me our
energies could Be better expended
in proving that we can be at
least rs bright. For we don't
need to conquer oiI: 1t b one
thing Of which we have 1 super
abundance. What we have rot
to solve is the question Of get
ting the oil that is In the West
to the oilless East. After all, II
needs only to be transported
over American territory; there
are no guerillas blowing things
up between Texas and New
York. The country is pretty well
mapped and explored.
We must cut down on unnec-
essary car transportation, cer-
tainly. For we must save tires;
that's a real shortage. But we
cannot cut down on plants need
ing oil, farmers needing it, or
on the transportation of thou
sands Of workers to their plants.
We can pool our resources and
communalise them. And in this,
