Our participation in the war thus
far has brought about a consider
able increase in both the marriage
rate and the birth rate. When the
records are complete 1912 will show
close to 100000 births, an all
time high, and 1943 is doing pretty
well.

BadogIio. Hitler
Meeting Rumored

LONDON, Aug. 28. = CUP)--A
Russian Tass Agency broadcast said
today that reports persist Adolf
Hitler and Premier Marshal Pietro
Badoglio will meet soon i'm Buda-
pest, presumably to discuss q joint
defense of Italy.
However, the London Daily Ex-
press said reports from neutral
capitals suggest that secret nego-
tiations between British and Italian
representatives for Italy's with
draWal from the war are under way,
though the British foreign office
refuses to comment.
Imperial Valley press., 1943-08-29

History, as reported by Professor
Ogburn, indicates that this drop
in births never will be completely
compensated for. When the men
in service return--Some to brides
they left behind and others to
sweethearts who are waiting to be-
come brides-there will be a spurt
to more than the normal birth rate.
But it will not overtake the lag
that is about to set in.
And, as a thought, if this is the
discouraging picture for the United
States, what does the continent of
Europe have to look forward to?
Imperial Valley press., 1943-08-29

About 1949 or 1850 we shall begin
to notice the effects of this war
born depression in babies. There
will be less children in the schools.
About 1860, unless there is a shift
in educational habits, the colleges
will find their classes smaller. Be-
ginning then, and for the next few
years-how long must depend upon
the trnie it takes us to whip Hitler
and TOTO, and the manpoWer it
costs us--industry and trade will
be affected by the falling off in
new recruits.

RY RUTH MILLETT

A lot of business are being run
today along the lines of a prohlpl-
ton speakeasy If you don't know
"Joe"-you are turned away.
For instance, you go into a photo
supply store to buy roll OF him
for your camera. The clerk says,
1--WE don't sell film to anyone with
out a receipt showing he has had
us develop a roll of film recently
Or you go into meat market
where YOU aren't known and ask
for beef. The clerk tells you ne
doesn't have anything but pork. But
an old customer comes in five min
utes later and gets beef, just Tor
the asking.
The same thing is true If you
want sheer rayon stockings. You
probably can't find them just by
walking in the stores and looking.
But if you have an account at a
department store the clerk at the
hosiery counter will call you up
when a shipment of sheer stock
ings comes in and sell you as many
as you want of them.
It's all right, so long as you stay
put in one community where you
are known and where you have had
charge accounts for years.

RepercussionS of the recent Henry
Wallace-Jesse Jones fight are apt
to be bouncing around in admins
trative circles for many moons to
dome.
First off, you may expect some
sort of a face-lifting operation to
save the vice presidents face. The
White House administrative assis-
tants and Budget Bureau experts
who presumably rote the executive
order divorcing Mr. Wallace from
his beloved Board of Economic
Warfare are now repeatedly going
around wondering how they really
could have been so cruel to Henry
who is, after all, No. man in the
New Deal. Early reaction was that
Henry had been ditched. That
sentiment is changing now. Henry
must be made to look good.
Secondly, it is going to take
months To effect the reorganiza-
ton of the Wallace and Jones
government agencies which the
executive order SO glibly shuffled
about. So vast and SO COM
plicated have these multi-billiOn
dollar government agencies be-
come that there are few people
even in government who know
what they are doing.

SOLUTION: STAY HOME

But if you go to a new place to
live and walk into a store, cash in
hand, all you get is what there is
plenty of. The scarce items are not
for you. They're hidden behind a
counter for the 'old customer"
And who are you but an upstart
who wants to do business on cash
and carry basis?
The only solution apparently is
to stay at home where you know
Joe-and belong to the favored few,
who get what is hidden behind the
counter.

COLOSSAL COMPLICATIONS
The foreign operations OF the Re-
construction Finance Corporation
subsidiaries, for instance, are un-
believably colossal, and all bound
up with domestic operations in the
same commodities. Switching con-
troll and management of these cor
porations is the equivalent OF a
series of international big business
deals which would take private in
dustry months and months to
negotiate. Frankly, some of the
government executives charged with
the responsibility of making these
reorganizations don't know how
! they are to be effected.
To get some conception of what
this order means, il is necessary
! TO invent a parallel. Imagine,
then that one of the big corpora
tiOns like General Electric or
General Motors were ordered 10
transfer all their foreign busi-
ness to another company over
night. This switching around OF
government agencies is a bigger
deal by far than both the two
examples would be, together, for
the reason that the RFC sub
sid;ary operations are in the
cases of some so items monopoly
trading rights. Involved are such
things as the purchase of Cuba's
entire sugar crop, import of all
wool from Australia, New Zealand
and South Africa for distribution
TO both the United Kingdom and
the United States, the import of
all strategic materials from Rus
sia, and so on and so en- and so
on.
Third. Congress is going to have
a look at all these goings on. Sen
Harry Flood Byrd's committee or
the reduction of non-essential fed
eral expenditures has previously
indicated a desire to look over RFC
operations. The Presidents ordel
transferring the foreign part of thi!
show to the new Office OF Eco
nomtic Warfare under Leo. I
Crowley specifying that RFC
should continue to finance then
until DEW could get its own ap'
propriations from Congress simply
means that this whole business vii
have to be opened up and some o.
it is SO fantastic that it will no
bear scrutiny because OF th'
tremendous multi million dolla
losses which it necessarily involves

american Secretary OF State Hull

Ehliied terms of peace remained
from the Casablanca
|dictum Of unconditional sur

had been authorized 10 accept
on those terms only.
UNTIL THESE terms are met,

lister 10 the House of Commons on
Tuesday. Orders TO this effect
already had been given TO all
Allied commanders concerned. he
added. Neutrality would never be
considered.
Italy cannot really cease TO be
an ally OF Germany without be-
coming her enemy. This. however,
is a problem for Badoglio to solve.
It is highly probable that, in
order to prevent Italy from sur
rendering and 10 provide buffer
territory TO protect Germany's
southern frontier. Hitler might
order his army in northern Italy
70 occupy the fertile Pc valley
which is a great industrial center.
IN ADDITION TO this area be-
ing the natural defense of the |
Reich, its Notifications have been
strengthened since the Allies
landed in Sicily and, according to |
report, one reason for the Nazfs
heavy fighting at Catania is to
gain time to complete the defen-
sive work.
At present, Italy has 25 to 80
divisions garrisoned in the Bal
kans.--though according 10 report
20 of these have been recalled.
Her detection. therefore. would
compel Germany to replace these
by German divisions.
ANY such shift of personnel
would force Hitler either tol
weaken his lines on the eastern
front,-just as the Russians are
hammering the gates OF Orel.-or
dig into his already reduced
strategic reserves.
Hitler should know now what
TO expect from the Allies.
