United States victory plans call for a
strictly American brand of "full-employ-
ment" war economy by December, 1912.
Germany and Russia have made their
respective kinds of full employment"
pay dividends for years, in peace as well
as war. This country, however, will
draw on British experiments for its
emergency pattern.
In short, the Government expects the
Nations entire labor force to be at
planned work within the next 10 months
every available person regardless Of
prediction or previous occupation serv-
ing some given civilian or military task
and the whole 130,000,000 of popula-
ton devoting supervised energy to de-
feat of the enemy.
This is going to encounter charges
from some that planned work" and
given tasks" and supervised energy
are words of a dictator. They are, but
authorities here give them democratic
swing.
Painful in Spots.
LII pldlIl OluCCO OUdtCo tAlCy LlCdll
that Federal leadership will direct, not
coerce, willing public toward highest
possible national efficiency. 1t will be
painful in spots and certainly not with
out initial misgivings, personal incon-
venience and some sacrifice. But war
economists say it is the only way to
match about thoroughness of Axis
powers.
They plan to spearhead this newest
and perhaps strangest departure from
customary ways of free Government
with a man power mobilization board
authorized to muster all workers neces-
sary for war factory output.
Here are the prospective jobs: Cd
Increase the number of war-production
workers from present 100000 to 49,
100000 by December. 1912; CD decrease
non-defense workers from 29,700,000 to
21,80O, 900. .(0 reduce the number of self
employed from 5,9QooOo to $500 900, "a
lower agricultural employment from
100000 to 8,500,000, 60 increase the
armed forces from 1000, 900 to 4.200, ,000
and 90 cut unemployment from $780,
900 to 100000. Chat amount Of unem-
ployment existed at the peak Of peace

Calling All Man Po1ver

The Bevin structure controls both mil
itary and civilian recruiting, represent
ing work divided here among Army,
Navy, Selective Service, Civil Service, Of
flee of Civilian Defense and the United
States Employment Service.
The British also have alternated skilled
men between the military and industrial
services depending on where they were
more urgently needed. In modern war
fare, almost all service men must be
skilled mechanics, semi-skilled or handy
with TOOLS"
1t is well to note that the new draft
registration of all men between 18 and
65, inclusive, pointedly asked for COM
plete occupational history. In the British
pattern this could mean the government
intends to use draft records of older men
In recruiting war production workers.
Complex Problems Involved.
Paul v. McNutt, Federal Security Ad-
ministrator, whose various agencies have
trained millions for vocational pursuits.
says of this: .
1.-THE registration will provide an or
derly means of sorting out aptitudes and
will add materially to our knowledge OF
available labor. It will enable US to set
up q clear national policy Of assisting
every individual to make his greatest
contribution"
Again, no coercion talk-but Mr.. Nc
Mutt adds: .....-
1.-The gigantic task Of supplying man
power for the war industries, for the
armed forces and for essential civilian
production, must be assigned in the most
productive way to the appropriate peo-
pie"
If that doesn't mean a former good
mechanic or master farmer or other pro-
duction expert now selling shoes or clip
ping coupons or writing news stories may
60 back to his old trade to win this war,
someone has misled the man Washing
ton first talked about to head the mo-
bilization board.

tial one, has been lost to the United
Nations through Japanese occupation or
the "scorched earth" policy which the
Dutch have pursued with a heroism
comparable only to that Of Russia. Head
ing these forfeited sectors is the archi-
pelago's greatest oil installation, at Pal
embang on the island of Sumatra.
Next to steel and aluminium, copper is
ranked in this country as the most in
dispensable combat metal Accessible to
the Allies is an annual production esti-
mated at 2,476,000 tons, while the figure
for the Axis is 10000 tons, or, roughly,
one-sixteenth as much.
For what 1t is worth, the comment
may be made that the United States
possesses gold stocks Of $22,741 ,289, ,635,
or twelve -thirteenths of all the precious
metal in the world, and that five-sixths
Of annual gold production, or more than
$1,000 0OO, 900. is yielded by South Africa,
Rhodesia, West Africa, Canada, the
United States, Australia and British
India.
Magnesium Supply.
For war purposes aluminium takes
second place, after steel Thanks to
occupation of one of the earths largest
deposits of high-grade bauxite, in Lor-
raine, Germany until recently manu-
factured more aluminium than the United
States and Britain together. Japan
enjoys a considerable domestic produc-
ton, utilizing an inferior clay called
alunite. Today American output has
passed that Of Germany and Japan
combined. Unless exports Of bauxite
from South America are cut OF, the
lead by next autumn should grow COM
manding.
The same Is about to become true of
magnesium, natures lightest metal, of
which the United States this year hopes
to extract 125,0o0,0Oo pounds from sea
water. 1t is essential for star shells,
signal flares and incendiary bombs.
Mixed with per cent aluminium, per
cent zinc and a pinch of manganese, it
forms an alloy ideal for airplane con-
Structlon, both as TO engines and bodies,
since it is not only lighter but tougher
and stronger than aluminium.
The United Kingdom would starve
without American food shipments, but
no doubt is felt as to the capacity of
the United States to yield more than
its own and Britain's needs in basic
elements, such as fruits. cereals, vege
tables, meats. fats, eggs and dairy prod
ucts. Except for sporadic famines, Rus
sia has generally been self -sufdcient in
food, but may need help If part Of its

All calculations as to- relative sea
power may be upset by the possibility
that Germany has completed two other
battleships of the Bismarck -Tirpitz class,
and that at time when engineers of the
United States Navy were thinking in
terms Of 35000-ton vessels. Japan laid
down two to four 4500O-ton dread
naughts, which may now-thanks to
American exports of steel and iron scrap
be ready for service. Should these
sinister rumors prove we'll founded, one
phase of Hitler's spring offensive may
well prove to be an all-out challenge
for command of the Atlantic, with his
own ships and those of France; while
Japan keeps the main American fleet,
years from its two-ocean goal, pinned
down in the Pacific.
II comparative strength by sea, land
and air remains to some degree specu-
lative, there is no doubt of Allied su-
periority in many raw materials essential
to war, particularly steel, petroleum,
copper, foodstuffs and textile fabrics.
Moreover, the United Nations until a
few weeks ago possessed virtually
world monopoly of tin and rubber. The
biggest producer of both materials,
British Malaga, is now in the hands of
Japan, which is striking to make its
own monopoly of tin and rubber COM
plete by conquering the second largest
source, the Netherlands Indies.
Production Of steel in the United
States alone-about 90,0000O0 tons a
years-is nearly double that of the Axis
in Europe and Asia combined, with an
approximate total of 51,545, 900 tons.
Estimates for Russia, the United King
dom, Canada and India are 21,800, 600.
$4,000, 900, 2,174,000 and 1000, 900 tons re-
spectively, making an Allied aggregate
Of 129,974,000 tons year. Latest calcu-
lations available for steel output at the
disposal of the Axis are as follows:
Germany, 2S,150,0oO tons; Japan, 7,l00,-
900; France, 100000; Italy, 100000;
Belgium, 2.500,000; Luxembourg, 1,450 900:
Sweden. $50 1000; Hungary, 900 1000, and
Spain, $685. 900.
Axis Deficient in Oil.
Totally deficient in oil, with its ships,
planes and tanks fueled with supplies
amassed before the war from the United
States and Netherlands Indies, Japan
is trusting on to control of the latter's
output. Hostilities with Russia and ma
rine blockade have closed the Axis in
Europe to 81 per cent of the worlds
production, of which So per cent origi-
mates in the United States and so per
cent in the Western Hemisphere.

Victory Won't Waiit.
These changes mean terrific upset in

women must 60 to work in war factories.
$4,000 more young men must get ready

ers laid off during 1912 because of war
curtailment of civilian goods and serv-
ices. Perhaps 100000 women-equal to
the number of new men called to the col
ors-may be placed in factories and on
the farms. Some 100000 lead men"
must be prepared for the job-training
of new labor recruits.

omy is endless. 1t affects, directly or in
directly, the 100000 persons now en-

100000 to that number. and sets the goal
at 57400,0O0 by next December.
Undoubtedly, at first, apgreat many
Americans are going to be drawn into
war work without their consent. Brig.
Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, selective service
director, estimates the 1912 labor force
at a round 60,000000, including service
men, and says the Nations manpower
must be budgeted to put every one 'in
the place where he can render the max
imum effort"
Manpower Mobilization.
He does not talk of drafting labor, but
presently it is intended that the Man
Power Mobilization Board shall be as
powerful in its domain as is the War
Production Board in controlling factory
output. Some desire that, in proper pro-
portions, 1t should function after the
manner of Ernest Bevin's Ministry Of
Labor and National Service-which in
Great Britain Is responsible for both
military and industrial registration.

400 to 600; Finland, 200 to 800, and
Bulgaria. 100 to 800.
In capacity for airplane manufacture
the Allies seem already to have outrun
the Axis, with prospect of leaving it
far behind as the American program
gathers speed. Output of military planes
in the United States is well over 1000 a
month and is expanding swiftly. British
production is something like 1000 a
month Russian output can scarcely be
less than 1000 a month, and may be
much more. On the other hand, Italy,
poverty stricken as to steel, is probably
building few new planes, and the four
small Axies allies possibly none. Ger
many is said to have replacement facili-
ties for 1000 to 5000 planes month
and Japan between $50 and $500. The
totals give a minimum of 5000 planes
a month for the Allies and from 2,750
to $500 for the Axis.
Warship Strength.
Superiority in sea power is also alleged
for the United Nations, though secret
factors may cut down a margin which
is generally believed to be emphatic,
even when American and British losses
in December. are subtracted. Figures
here shift constantly, as vessels are sunk
and new ones commissioned A current
estimate is that the Allies possess from
918 to 986 warships as against 635 to
695 for the Axis. An approximate table
of present strength is offered herewith:
Allies Axis.
BattleshipS ---- 80 18
Carriers - 8 to 10
Cruisers -- 1l3 to lis SO to II
Destroyers ---- IA to 469 261 to 281
Submarines 3l3 to 353 27g to 3l5
The surprising claim to Allied pre-
dominance In submarines is based on
3 the fact that Russia is believed to pos
sess the largest feet of submersibles in
the world, estimated at from 140 to ITS
craft. Germany is rated second, with
l30 to 160 and the United States third
with 1l3. In order come Italy with 80
to IS; Japan, about 10; Britain, As or
so, and the Netherlands Indies, Is.
Despite Pearl Harbo1 and the loss of
the Prince of Wales and Repulse, the
United States has 16 battleships and
Britain IA. Japan is credited with 10,
Italy with and Russia and Germany
with 3 each. Two of the German battle
ships are the Scharnhorst and Gneise-
nau, which escaped from Brest to home
waters after having repeatedly been de
stroyed" by British bombers, and the
third is the Trpitz, sister of the "un-
sinkable" Bismarck, a monster dread
naught Of perhaps $4,000 tons. The
Reich has also two pocket battleships
the Luetzow and Admiral Scheer.
