Plan Transfers Considered.
Covering q wide range Of subjects
during his conference, the Presi-
dent revealed that advanced study
Is being given to the advisability
of transferring some of the Nation &
key industrial plants inland from
the vulnerable Atlantic and Pacific
Seaboards. Airplane plants on the
Pacific Coast are receiving fore
most consideration, 1t was indicated
but other war industries on both
coasts are included.
The President pointed out that
one solution might be the shifting
OF certain divisions Of the vital in
dustries 50 that no single attack
could cripple an entire manufactur-
ing operation.
Mr.. Roosevelt also said he ex-
pected a report over the weekend
on the extent to which production
has been stepped up to a three-shift
seven-day per week basis.
While this full-time operation
represents the quickest way to ex-
pand production in some lines, he
pointed out that maintenance re-
quirements make other plants more
effective II operated on a two-shift
basis.
The President also took a step
today to safeguard labor supply
and at the same time protect rights
OF individuals when he issued a
formal statement Of warning
against indiscriminate discharges
of aliens. The President said he
was mentioning this practice after
being informed by Attorney General
Biddle of its prevalence.
stupid and Unjust"
Il am deeply concerned over the
increasing number Of reports of
employers discharging workers who
happen to be aliens or even foreign
born citizens" the Presidents state
ment read. This is a very serious
matter. 1t is one thing to safe
guard American industry. and par
ticularly defense industry, against
sabotage: but it is very much an
other to throw out of work honest
and loyal people who, except for
the accident of birth, are sincerely
patriotic.
Such a policy is as stupid as 1t is
unjust. and on both counts 1t plays
into the hands Of the enemies OF
American democracy. BY discharg-
ing loyal. efficient workers simply
because they were born abroad or
because they have foreign-sounding
names or by refusing such men and
women. employers are engendering
the very distrust and disunity on
which our enemies are counting to
defeat us.
Remember the Nazi technique:
Pit race against race. religion
against religion, prejudice against
prejudice. Divide and conquer
I'VE must not let that happen
here. We must not forget what we
are defending: Liberty. decency,
justice. We cannot afford the eco
nomic waste of service of all loyal
and patriotic citizens and non -citi-
zens in defending our land and our
liberties.
Il urge all private employers to
adopt sane policy regarding aliens
and foreign-born citizens, and to re-
member that the sons of the foreign
ers they discharged may be among
those who fought and are fighting
so valiantly at Pearl Harbor or in
the Philippines.
There is no law providing against
employment of aliens except in spe-
cial defense work Of a secret nature,
and even In such work the employer
may hire an alien with the permis-
sion Of the Army or Navy, depend
ing on the contract"

Something Unpleasant" Seen.


The United States and Britain are
preparing something very unpleas-
ant for the Japanese" 1t. Gen. Helm
Ter Poorten, commander Of the
Netherlands Indies Army, told his
troops In q broadcast at Batavia
yesterday.
While warning his men to be on
guard against a Japanese invasion
at any moment. he said:
Il am sorry cannot tell you about
the plans which are being worked
out and about the conversations
which regularly take place, but We
and our Allies are working hard
very hard.
THE British and Americans are
preparing something which will be
very unpleasant for the japanese. -
As for the Japanese attacks. the
Aneta News Agency quoted Gen. Ter
Poorten as saying:
"The Japanese blitzkrieg. after
the German pattern. is running low
thanks to the action of our army
and especially Of our army air corps
The Japanese have tried to re-
taliate. The brigands have bombed
smacks and villages along the coast
They have raised fires and COM

We will get them"

Preparing to Hit
Again at MOscOU

His Russian tactics indicate
nothing as brilliant as the German
army showed earlier in France and
Poland.
At Kursk, he struck at a
shrewdly chosen weak point be-
tween the central and the southern
Russian armies, cutting the rail-
roads connecting them, and thus
preventing them from getting re-
Inducements back and forth.
This cut enabled him then to
turn south against Marshal limo
shenko's army with the immediate
objective Of destroying it and the
ultimate objective of reaching the
Volga, where he could sever the
indispensable Russian oil supply
route from the Caucasus or seize
the fields himself. !.
But it is apparent from the way
he is working, his military objec-
tives in Russia are not limited to
these points alone. His prepara-
tons behind the lines already show
he is getting ready 10 hit at Mos
COW again in the north, if these
southern operations do not work
out well.

WASHINGTON, July IL. Hit

winning the war this year has
become apparent in recent events.

nights last winter, the one he

The most obvious thing about 1t
Is that his intuition" IS not so

II almost ignores the whole

been purposely held by Hitler TO
a sideshow. Most recent reports

Hitler Can Take
Time for His Plan

It is not correct to say that the
war in Europe must be determined
by the results of these operations
within the next 80 days. Hitler is
taking his time. He can fight in
the south until December i.
Thus, he has more than four
months remaining in which to full
fill a realistic, plausible, but not
characteristically imaginative cam
paign.
Unless he can destroy the Rus
sian army with this program, he
cannot even claim a victory in
Europe. And If he does destroy the
Russian army, he must still face
the United States and Britain.
All bad news now and for the
next few weeks should be read in
the light of these focusing facts.
