LytteIton and u. ).
Officials Confer on
WarProduction
Joint Output and Food
Boords Proposed by
British Leader
BY BLAIR BOLLES.

Sir Oliver Lyttelton, British Min
lister of Production, opened CONVEX
sations with American officials here
today aimed at combining Anglo
American war production at the
peak of efficiency needed for the
prospective Allied invasion of Ger
man-held Europe and for continual
ton of the Raj massive raids on
Germany.
Capt. Lyttelton proposes estab-
liShment of joint production and
food boards. He planned to con-
fer today with Donald Nelson, who,
as head of the War Production
Board. is the American counterpart
of Capt. Lyttelton, and with Harry
Hopkins. President Roosevelt's chief
adviser on production and related
problems.
While in the United States Capt.
Lyttelton probably will visit Detroit
to see how our factories are turn
ing out the goods of war.
Oil Vi SdPN' igketilOAa
presages a re-exploration here of the
whole question of where and how the
Allies can best fight the war, so that
the production chiefs can adapt
theri programs to the decisions of
the generals.
1t also promises some decisions
about ways to improve the shipping
situation.
Although an Anglo American
board exists for the assignment OF
munitions after they are produced,
the two governments never have set
up a joint board for production
which can keep abreast at all times
of the production programs of Eng
land and the United States. The po-
litical turmoil of the winter which
resulted in the resignation of Lord
Beaverbrook as Minister of Produc-
ton delayed action on this step.
New problems have cropped up to
disturb the two governments since
the creation of the Joint Munitions
Anglo o-American boards-the Com
bined Shipping Adjustment Board
and the Combined Raw Material
Board-and the official hope is that
Capt Lyttelton's visit will bring ac-
ton that will cope effectively with
these problems. Before we entered
the war. the English and French
tried with only a bare success to
deal with similar cooperation prob
lens.
U. S. Decisions Affect British.
British munitions production has
been built up on imports of Amer
lean machine tools, steel and other
raw materials, and decisions taken
in the United States about produc-
ton and export of these articles in
evitably affect British production.
When England has only an informal
channel of information about Amer
lean decisions on machine-tool pro-
duction. for instance, England's own
production programs suffer.
American decisions about limiting
production and export of tractors
affect British food production, be-
cause Britain has made good some
of her lost food supplies by increas-
ing her own production through the
use of our tractors. This fact is
presented by the British as one
reason for the establishment of a
combined board that can confer
on tractor production from the point
of view of both England and Amer
lea rather than from the American
point of view alone.
One of the questions brought by
Capt. Lyttelton is this: Should
weapons of war, materials to make
the weapons, or food, or troops take
precedence in transport when ships
are not available for all?

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. 21.-The
Knights Of Columbus yesterday
adopted q resolution 'deploring at
tempts by pressure groups to inter-
fere with and to dictate the strategy
OF our competent military leaders, !"
and proclaiming loyal and patri-
otic devotion to our Nation and its
ideals and to our President"
The resolution, presented at the
Supreme Councils closing session,
was one Of 124, most of them dealing
with details of the order.
One was adopted "reafYirming the
Knights Of Columbus opposition to
any form of Communism in the
Government of the United States or
In any constituent State or subdi-
vision thereof"
The group expressed confidence in
Americas victory in the war with
another resolution, but warned !:
Such fears as we do entertain arise
from no thought of military defeat
but from certain disturbing tenden-
cies We see in our midst, tendencies
as deadly inimical to our freedoms
as Hitler's panzer divisions. .
We are determined In our patriotism
that shallow minds will not achieve
what enemy armies cannot accom-
plish."

Use Of 0CD INSIGNIA
In Politics Is Banned

A ban on using the OCD insignia
for political purposes was issued to-
day by OCD Director James NJ
Lands after issuance of a handbill
informing the public to Vote for
Mr.. -" Participate in Civilian
Defense" The handbill was adorned
with the insignia.
This ruling does not interfere
with the personal political activities
of our volunteer workers, who have
the same rights as any other pri-
vate citizens" Mr.. Lands said. The
distinction between such activity
and the use of the insignia of war
service organization to promote the
interests of any individual candidate
or party should be apparent. The
insignia represent the organization
not the individual. 1t is obviously
improper to use the organization for
political purposes or to attempt to
make political capital from the use
of its insignia"
Commercial use of OCD insignia
also is regulated by the director
who may prohibit such publication
or reproduction of these symbols in
cases where it would misrepreSent
or discredit the organization.
