WE
the Women
BY RUTH MILLETT

Lots of people feel sorry for ba-
bies born in wartime. But even II
they are being born into a messy
world-these youngsters have some
advantages over babies born in
peace time.
In New York, and probably other
crowded cities, the very landlord:
who used to throw up their hands
in horror at the idea of renting
an apartment to a couple with
baby are now looking for tenants
with children. They figure that
leases are less apt to be broken be-
cause the man of the family has
been drafted. So, the wartime pa
by is a welcome baby.
And the baby df his mother has
MT had to take a job Is pretty
sure to get better care than the
baby who came along before his
mother learned thanks to her war
training, all about nutrition, home
nursing, and first aid.
And, even though she has added
defense work to her home duties,
the war baby's Mama Is likely to
spend more time with him than she
would have done few years ago.
She can't turn his care over to
maid because she can't keep a maid
And she doesn't spend all her
afternoons away from home while
a high school girl looks after him
because she can't run around In
the car these days. And besides
her bridge club is no longer meet
ing.
So, even though grown-ups feel
sorry for wartime babies-the ba-
bies have q few things their own
way, including a lot of priorities.

HOW TO

We hope our fighting marines in the

Those marines have the idea that there
Is something vast at stake in this war.
That is why they are risking their lives
in our first attempt to roll back the Jap

TO tell them that the great issue, at least
at Louisville, is whether the ClO shall

The marines can wait in the hot, enemy

However, there are facts and figures,

A JOB TO DO

Here's how to beat the Axis.
Train and equip sufficient army and
navy, and put it in action; supply equip
ment to the armies of our allies, and
keep new equipment and materials going
to our own armies and others on our
side.
That's the only way to do it. The
weather isn't going to do the job for US.
Fate isn't going to step in with miracle.
It's a job for us, and one which nobody
else can do.
AS important as anything else is the
matter of equipment. That means pro-
duction, in turn, means steel.
We've got to turn out more steel than
any nation in the world has ever turned
out before We've got to do it in a shorter
time We've got tor else,
Without scrap metal, we can't turn
out first grade steel. The men in Aus

on our farms, in our homes, can supply
them There is no supply elsewhere.
Every one of us can help. and help i'm
mensely Now is the time to do it. Now,
or never. Next year it may be too late.
Let's put our scrap metal where we need

Heath
Writes:

AS a makeShift-Which is all that
can be expected from Congress at
this late date-there is much to
commend the Victory Tax proposed
by Senator George and approved
by the Senate Finance Committee
1t is relatively simple. 1t taps
the income of all but the lowest
paid; this has the double merit
of making everybody tax conscious
and of helping to drain dang
erous pool of potentially initiation
airy new war income.
1t encourages the payment of
debts, the purchase of insurance
and the buying of war bonds, by
allowing credits for such payments.
1t recognizes the need which will
exist, after the war, for replace
ment of now unprocurable heavy
household -refrigerators, au-
tomobileS, heating plants, stoves,
etc. and the fact that un-
less money is available at that time,
the heavy industries will not have
paying customers to finance re-
conversion to peacetime production.
To provide against these require
mentS, the scheme provides for sub
stantial postwar refunds to payers
of this tax.
To these extentS the Victory Tax
is an improvement over the alter
natives which had been under con-
sideration.
The public should recognize, how
ever, that the Victory Tax is not a
scientific substitute for the un-
scientific tax structure which has
grown up.
1t does not replace the income
tax. 1t has nothing TO do with
the desirability of the Ruml with
holding tax plan, which is being
kicked about Notwithstanding
strong public approval.
The need for heavy new taxes has
been a matter of public knowledge
for many months. President Roose-
velt made it Point Number One in
his seven point anti-inflation pro-
gram recommended to Congress
last April The people, who ordi-
narily hate taxes, have made il
abundantly clear that for war pur-
poses there is no ceiling upon theii
willingness to pay, and pay. ano
gay. Yet at the last moment, it was
necessary to produce makeshift.
At this late date, the income ta>
structure has not been revised. II
must be overhauled in great ruSt
to fit it into a brand-neW supple.
mentary tax scheme SO that thu
poorer payers will not be ruined.
We shall emerge, probably aftel

even further from any scientific

OF War Rotion
Book No. z

To give Montana some idea of the
changes they may expect when War
Ration Book No Two is distributed
some time after the first of the
New Year, the following informa-
ton was given the Western News
by A. T. Peterson, State Director of
the Office of Price Administration.
TN Montana we are already ia
miliar with the relatively simple
methods of rationing tires, auto
mobiles and typewriters through the
medium of applications submitted
to the local War Price and Ration
ing Boards for approval. The
Boards. action is based on certain
general rules such as personal need,
contribution to the war effort, the
necessity or Importance of the serv-
ices performed by the applicant and
other considerations.
I'VE are also familiar with the
Coupon Rationing System used for
sugar and coffee as well as for gas
oline under the mileage rationing
program. With these coupons a
certain amount of particular COM
modify may be purchased on pre-
sentation of the proper coupon. For
example, the presentation of the
proper coupon in War Ration Book
! No. One permits the purchase of
three pounds of sugar. For such
purchases, War Ration Book No.
One will be continued.
Under point rationing, which will
be inaugurated when War Ration
Book No. Two is distributed, there
will be some changes in rationine
methods. Under point rationing one
set of coupons cover whole group
of commodities. For example, {
weeks meat ration coupons woulc
enable you to choose freely be.

ITO make this clearer, let u:
imagine we have "a coupon point:
