tended to inclule 10 and 10 year olds.
That, however, will not increase the
la class a greatly as might be an
ticipated, for the reason that a con-
siderable percentage of the young
sters have enlisted with the consent
of their parents.
War industry has been told ito
start training draft-exempt people
to take the place of physically fit
technicians now employed. That
means that a big share of war pro-
duction will fall in the future on the
shoulders of women, of men physic-
ally unfit for military service, and
ON men past draft age. That will re-
quire great Establishments, and an
immense expansion of vocational
training facilities. War industry
executives, in this connection, say
that women have done surprisingly
well in jobs that were once corlsid-
cred the exclusive prerogatives of
men, such as welding, wiring, pipe
fitting, ETC. =
The new and strict "arlti-infla-
ton" controls which the President
announced ON Tabor Day have long
been expected. Initiation comes when
consumer purchasing power exceeds
the volume of goods available and
that is precisely what has been hap
pening to an ever-increasing ex-
tent in this country. Past OPA price
policy was not adequate because
many commodities were exempt
from control, and because wages,
farm prices and other costs contin-
ued to rise rnerrily. Excess purchas-
ing power led to the establishment

ECONOMIC HIGHLIGTITs

Great changes have taken place
In this country since Pearl Harbor.
New and unprecedented economic
controls have been imposed. A con-
siderable proportion of the nations
manpoWer has either entered mill
tary service or left peace industry
for war industry. Very heavy in
creases in taxation have been ap-
piled to industries and individuals.
In short, we have definitely moved
in the direction of a total war econ
omy."
But, as many authorities are now
pointing out, this is only the be-
ginning and a comparatively small
beginning at that. Inside the next
year, unless the world military sit
uation changes radically and unex-
pectedly, the adjustments that will
take place in American life will he
absolutely revolutionary.
The manpower situation Is a case
In point. High Selectdve service or
ficials have recently said flatly that
within a about a year, the great ma
jority of able-bodied men under IS
and over 18 will be in the army,
the navy, the coast guard or the ma
rines. Already the nations reserve
of LA men Is about exhausted and

of a growing 'fblack Market" which
(bootlegged prescribed or scarce
goods to the highest bidder. Many
economists are convinced that in
flation cannot be prevented unless
the most stringent kind of restraints
are placed upon wages and salaries
and, in addition, wage earners in
the ow-mcome as well as the high
er-income brackets are taxed to the
limit.
Soon after the first of the year
widespread commodity rationing Is
expected. In most warning countries
a food or clothing ration coupon Is
far more desirable than mere money
and that may come to pass here.
The future of what is called mon
essential business is shrouded in
mystery. The official list of ''criti-
caP' and essential" industries is
brief, and involves only businesses
which produce war materials OF
basic civilian supplies and serv-
ices. The worst blow is failing upon
small businesses which were unable
for one reason or another to adapt
themselves to war business or Sc
cure war orders. Thousands of bus
fnesses have closed their doors, and
1T looks like great many more will
have to follow suit in the future. The
small industry problem is one of the
worst that war has produced, and
no one, despite all the talk, has ap-
peared with a solution. 49, Id.
How far taxation will go is any
mans guess. Some influential MEM
beers of Congress are alarmed at
what pending taxes may do to the
American industrial structure the
proposed excess profits taxes, for
instance, might make 1T impossible
or next to impossible for some big
war industries to keep on operating
as private enterprises. There is no
question but what more and more
legislators are reluctantly turning to
sales tax as one way out. And the
enforced savings idea IS also gain
ing headway.
These are but a few of the revo-
ll1tionary influences now at work.
Never in hisory has war demanded
so much of nations money, re-
sources, energies and manpower.
From an economic as well as a mill
tary point of view, this war is with

The federal grand jury at Chi
cago absolved the Chicago Tribune
and affiliated newspapers of violat-
ing the law in publishing certain
war information which the War De
partment believed should not be re-
leased to the enemy. In the interest
of the freedom of press, the coun-
try will approve the verdict. At the
same time there exists the feeling
that newspapers have a response

dividuals. No newspaper should
print all its knows or guesses at in
a war where such information might
