International News Review

1t is under depressing circm-
stances such as these that the
SOviets are renewing their appeal
for the establishment of a Sec
Ond Front, for the beginning of
the United Nations general Of
fensive against Hitler. 1t is, re-
luctantly, conceded in Moscow
that unless help comes, in one
form or another, Russia may COL
lapse, and should that calamity
happen, it will be bad for her
brethren in-arms.
There is as yet not one single in
dication-in London, Washington, or
elsewhere, that the Second Front will
open in the near future. But, on the
other hand, there are plenty of in
dications that should Russia APP
proach her tragic climax, Japan may
take advantage of such a moment
to attack her from the Pacific, the
Asiatic, side.
Egyptian Front.
Uncertainty as to the further de-
velopments of the war is illustrated
by the events in North Africa. Here.
it will be remembered, German and
Italian forces under the command of
General Field Marshal Erwin Rom
mel have gone very far into Egypt
in an effort to capture Alexandria,
Cairo and the Suez canal. But at
Ell Alamein, about seventy miles west
of Alexandria, the British stopped
the enemy and forced him to retreat
about ten miles.
The disquieting fact about this
particular front is that while
ROmmel has not been able to
make any renewed progress, he
has not been driven farther back.
And, in the meantime, he is re-
ceiving strong reinfOrcements all
the time.
The British, too, are being REIN
forced, but in spite of that fact they
have not been able to compel Rom
mel to start any further retreat, and

This article, the second in a

eminent University of Minnesota
agricultural economist, is recon-
mended to readers of this news
paper by County Agent Max Nc
Millin. The Jesness articles on

airy trend is not headed off.
Flood of Money.
This vast war production program
is turning a flood of money into con-
sumers pockets in the form of wages
profits and government purchases Of
all kinds. At the same time, there
are less goods for consumers to buy
because factories are producing
planes, tanks and guns instead OF
the things for which consumers nor
mally spend their money. In 1912
it is estimated that there will be
sc billion dollars available for con-
sumner spending over and above
normal savings and tax payments
while the supply of goods and serv-
ices available for consumption will
total only 50 billion, leaving an ex-
cess of consumer spending power
of about II billion dollars. Unless
are applied to bring the
spending and the supply of goods
more nearly into balance at present
price levels, prices will rise decidedly
and rapidly. Consumers will not get
any more goods, but they will pay
a lot more for them.
Only Beginning.
This initial price rise, however, is
only the beginning, for when prices
go up, the cost of living rises and

FINAL DOLL PARADE at
three Fairgrounds were held
Thursday, with more entries at
Lincoln, st. Mary's and Dickin-
son Fairgrounds than at the four
held on Wednesday.
Best of the parades, conducted
under the summer recreation
program with Edward A. Dubay
in charge, was held at Dickinson,
perhaps to make up for the pet
show where the heat conquered
most of the pets.
Dickinson was the only play
ground at which the number of
decorated doll buggies exceeded
the number of dolls. and it also
was the playground having the
largest number of entries.
Interest in the doll parade ran
SO high in the neighborhood that
a number of mothers, whose
children were not even register
ed at the playground, went to
the trouble to decorate buggies
for their youngsters to take )
the event. Significant too is
fact that these mothers won. Il
not permit their little ones to en-
ter the competition.
Shows yesterday, were, as be-
fore, divided into two parts, dolls
and doll-buggies being judged
separately. The winners:
