General Business Likely
To Hold Most Of Gains
BY J. c. ASPLEY,
r and Publisher. American Business

Editor ana PuODSneI, AmcIlShH ou6lness
Magazine.
We look for general business to
continue to hold most of its gains
during 1912 if the war continues.
There will be sharp pickup, we
think, in lines of business which Will
profit from the high wages now
being paid in the defense industries.
However, it is clear that If we go
ahead with the so-called Victory
program aimed at winning the war
before Hitler can get European pro-
duction organized. there will be far
reaching economic and labor dislo-
cations.
These, coupled with Cd an in
creasing degree Of credit and price
control by the Government; CD the
threat of still higher taxes: 60 some
sort of forced savings plans; and
a. material shortages due to pri-
critics and ALLEGATIONS. will make
our prosperity Gf you choose to call
it that decidedly spotty.
The upshot of it all, 1t appears to
us here, will be the fading out Of
the present sellers market" and
a return to more normal buying
conditions. Indeed. there will prob
ably be many lines where produc-
ton volume can be maintained only
by the hardest kind Of sales and
sales promotional work.
Evidence continues to pile up that
in some instances-printing paper.
for example-the shortages have
been more imaginary than real, due
to speculative buying. As govern
mental control becomes more effec-
tive, these accumulations Of inven-
tory will decline, most Of the for
ward buying will stop, and salesmen
will have to be put back on the road
again.

The American sulphur industry
In 1941 met the challenge Of the
Axis by supplying American and
British industry with a record

vance in price, shipping three
quarters of a million tons more than
ever before in its history. reports

This Changing World
Combating Axis Submarines OFF Eost Coast
Becomes Increasingly Importunt Problem

the detection of submarines hy
air requires a large fleet Of slow
flying aircraft, either blimps or
certain types of airplanes which
are not useful in actual combat,
either for reconnaissance or for
fighting.
Blimps Favored by Some.
The measures to be taken
against the Nazi raiders are be-
ing discussed now in responsible
circles. Some groups favor the
slow-fying blimp, which can
carry a stable load of depth
charges and can be fitted with
full radio equipment to commu-
nicate with patrol boats or land
based air forces.
The main objection to these
lighter-than-a air ships is that they
require a large ground crew, are
expensive to build and require
much rubber. Furthermore, Il
is pointed out in competent quar-
ters, they are very vulnerable. II
German subs have dual utility
guns on board-and some have
been discovered to have such
weapons-the low-fying blimp
can be brought down without
trouble.
The use of autogiros to combat
submarines is sponsored by cer-
tain officials in Washington. but,
according to all aviation experts,
this type Of craft is not fit for
such duty. 1t is true that they
are slow and require neither
ground crews nor particular care.
But they cannot carry more than
two depth charges and If a radio
Is installed there is no room for
an observer. A single man must
be able 10 pilot the plane, op-
crate the radio and release the
depth charges.
Certain regular types Of planes,
however, can fly slowly enough,
and carry a full complement CT
men and depth charges as heavy
as those carried on surface YES
sells. This type Is regarded as
ideal by many aviation experts,
provided they can be built rap
idly by factories which for the
time being are burdened with in
creased orders for actual fast
fighting and bombing planes.
The situation is less acute on
the West Coast, where the Japa-
nese submarine menace remains
only potential" Occasional

The Great Game of Politics
Administration Criticized for Delay
In Accepting Inevitable SoIes Tox

fed at the idea. Apparently he
cannot now bring himself to change
his position, though the arguments
which justified it then have dis
appeared. nullified by the war ex-
penditures and the imitation threat.
In normal times, the two argu-
ments against the sales tax were
first, that it falls most heavily upon
those with lowest income; second,
that these need all their income to
maintain even a minimum standard
of living. Both these arguments
have now lost their validity. Since
1910 taxes in the upper income
brackets have so risen that it Is nc
longer true that a sales tax would
be disproportionately borne by the
lowest income group. Nor is it true
that this group now has to pay its
entire income to live. AS a result
Of the war, millions who have never
paid any income tax have had their
incomes greatly increased.
The assertion now that these can
not afford to pay a sales tax is nc
longer an argument that we must
not undermine their scale OF living;
1t is an argument that their scale
of living should be raised because
of the war. The situation has COM
pletely changed since the days when
Mr.. Roosevelt was Mortified" py
the sales-tax suggestion. The more
clear headed New Dealers know
this to be true but, SO long as the
White House declines to recognize
it, they are afraid to, and the fiction
Is maintained that the sales tax is
just tax on the poor. That never
was true.
Soon or late. the sheer weight OF
economic realities will force adop-
ton Of this tax, along with the
others suggested for siphoning OF
the Increased purchasing power OF
the untaxed masses. But so long as
the President remains rigid, it is
unlikely that Congress. on its own.
will find the courage to act at this
session. In another year it cannot
be stopped. OF course, the delay
greatly enhances the difficulties of
handling the problem. Years hence,
historians are likely to agree that
the most incredible and inexplica-
BILE thing about this period was the
extraordinary delay in taking the
obvious, logical and unacceptable
steps.

Representative Pierce, longtime

Nazi submarines are operating

the damage they have inflicted

sonal ally, nature. For this Is
the great Pantheist, the wor-
shipper Of Odin, the follower OF
the whirling cross Of fire, which
represents the eternal power Of
inexorable nature. So we must
ask: Is this the beginning Of the
disintegration Of the Axis? Are
the Allies deserting? Have a
quixotic providence and a
whimsical nature changed sides?
For nature is, indeed, whimsi-
cal. According to Hitler, this
satanic nature operates only
against the Nazis. Wherever the
Russians stand 1t Is fair weather,
the temperature is normal.
Wherever the German armies
stand the climate Is something

Germans had a monopoly OF
that. All over the world Ger
man ears are to the ground and
to the air, and to report the
weather in the city Of New York
is military secret. I recall that
at the beginning Of the war the
Nazis boasted that they alone
had mastered the science OF

Der to be conveyed to the many

they must take their chances.
Axis Subs Well Armed.
Axis submarines are much bet
ter armed than those we knew in
the last war. So far, all those
our merchantmen have encount-
cred on the Atlantic seaboard
were equipped with 5 or 6 inch
guns and had q surface speed
far exceeding that Of our mer-
chantmen. 1t is not rare to dis
cover Nazi U-boats which are
capable of Is knots. about the
speed Of some of our older bat
tleships and cruisers.
Under the circumstances the
chances Of q merchantman-
even If 1t has one or two guns

Unexpectedly on the surface are
extremely slim. The Nazis have
the advantage Of surprise, for
merchantmen are not equipped
with listening devices. In many
cases the guns of submarines
have greater range than those
placed on commercial vessels
and even If they do not, the u
boat can maneuver mere easily
since it has much greater speed.
The only way TO reduce the
sinkings, which have mounted
alarmingly in the last few weeks,
is to detect the submarines from
the coast, either with patrol ves-
sels or planes.

| face Is the ineVltablllty OF tne sdles
tax. That our situation makes this
tax unacceptable is the opinion OF
practically every competent econ
omist in the country. Even some
administrationists who publicly op-
pose 1t agree 1t cannot be avoided.
If it does not come this year it Ger
tainly will next year. There Just
Is nothing else to do.
Yet, the administration continues
to oppose 1t. 1t also continues to
shrink from the various forms OF
withholding taxes and forced saw
ings (though such suggestions have
come from some Of its own fiscal
oficials) and it approaches a further
lowering Of exemptions falteringly
and with obvious distaste. Before we
are through with this war. all these
taxes will have to be adopted If we
are to keep our heads above water
and there is hardly an informed
man anywhere who does not know
1t. The refusal to admit the facts
and to act promptly is easily under
standable from ordinary politicians
In normal times.
Present Times Not Normal.
In normal times the political in
stinct is to avoid any direct taxes
that bear upon the great mass Of
the voters and concentrate upon
ways and means Of soaking the
rich" But these are not normal
times. These are exceedingly peril
GUS times in which, for the national
safety. political considerations
should be pushed aside and the
usual .demagogic attitudes aban-
doned. At this moment the heads
OF Government, from the President
down, are acutely aware Of the
| danger Of an uncontrolled imitation.
They know that the basic cause for
imitation Is the vastly increased
purchasing power resulting from
the war billions. largely in the
hands Of the great bulk Of the peo-
pie and untouched by income taxes.
1t Is agreed that unless some
method Is found to reduce this pur-
chasing power. the proposed price
control will be futile and disastrous
results to US all are bound to follow
Experience has proven that such
results are always more disastrous
to the poor than to the well-to-do.
There Is no argument about these
things. Nevertheless, those in
authority avoid the indicated &C.
ton. Pointing out the danger, the
President a few weeks ago an
nounced an anti-inflation program
but omitted, among other things,
any plan to deal with the vital es-
sential Of reducing purchasing
power, without which the other
things he proposed will be inefiec-
tual.
Both the Treasury and Mr.. Leon
Henderson, price control admins

tax, though certainly Mr.. Hender-
son realizes Its necessity. So, Of
course, do most of the others. Why,
then, do they finch from the sug-
