Japs Forced 10 Forget
'Co-Prosperity' in Indies
' the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press
Shipping losses have forced the
Japanese to abandon their Co
prosperity scheme as it affects the
Dutch East Indies, a Toxic broad
cast indicates, in favor of self
sufficiency" for those captive isles.
The broadcast, addressed in the
japanese language to Asia, was
picked up by United States Gov
ernment monitors. 1t said the Japa-
nese program concentrates on three
things:
l. Pressure upon the Indonesians
to join the Japanese-sponsored de-
fense corps, thus freeing japanese
occupational troops of police duties
and making them available for
actual combat when the time comes
2. Large-scale recruiting of native
labor (probably compulsory to pro-
vide regular supply of workers
for the Japanese in the Indies.
3. A drive for economic self-suf
ficiency" in the Indies to eliminate
the need of bringing supplies or
japanese ships.
The possibility that shortages anc
imitation exist was indicated by en-
pllasis in the broadcast on the need
for increased food production and
savings.

Woman Legislators
Say Their Sex Wants
Postwar Peace Role
BY the Associated Press.


The women of the United Nations
want-and will insist on-a voice in
the making of the postwar world
women members of Congress agreed
in concert yesterday.
Not one woman got us into this
mess" said Representative Luce
Republican, of Connecticut, but
mothers who think in terms of the
next generation, those women who
have had hand in war industry
and those interested In Government,
will demand voice in shaping the
postwar world"
Mentions Nine. Chang.
Mrs. Luce observed in an inter-
view that Mime. Chang Kai-shek
will have a place at the peace
table, If not actually, surely in
spirit"
The Russian women, who have
played a major role in their coun-
try's defense, will have a powerful
influence over the peace conference
Representative Bolton, Republican
of Ohio said.
Eleanor Roosevelt will certainly be
there, If only in a reportorial ca
pacity, Mrs. Luce added.
All the woman legislators stressed
however, that women must earn the
right to be represented by taking
more interest in governmental af-
fairs.
Mrs. Bolton suggested that the
fields OF education and health were
ideal vehicles for woman participa-
tion.
Women's Views Presented.
women generally seem to know
more about such subjects" she said
and men lust naturally turn" to
them when these subjects are raised
Women generally are against
war, much more so than men, be-
cause of their inclination to COM
promise" Mrs. Luce commented.
They think of their sons and chill
dren and the next generation more
than men do. The representation
at the peace table will be in pro-
portion to the women at home in
terested in the peace plans. If
women stay in industry and take
a keener interest in government, as
they should, they will demand a
voice in shaping the postwar world"

With tears streaming down his

ployes that while overseas, he sent
small amounts regularly to his

Montgomery Limits Purchases
Of Whisky to Two Groups

Restriction of whisky sales in the
Montgomery County Liquor Control
Board dispensaries to bona fide
county residents was ordered yester-
day by the board to begin Tuesday.
On presentation of War Ration
Book No. 3, county residents and
military personnel stationed in the
county will be permitted to buy one
bottle on each of the three days a
week whisky is sold.
One bottle of rum, gin, liuueurs
and cordials may be bought at a
time every day. Wine sales will be
limited to one case a day.
Each time a purchase is made.
the date will be stamped on the back
of the ration book.
Outsiders to Be Barred.
Beryl English. manager of dispen-
sary system. explained that the ac-
ton was taken to forestall an in
creasing drain on the county liquor
dispensary system by purchasers
from Washington, Virginia and as
far south as North Carolina.
Restriction of sales to county resi-
dents only. he said. does not mean
that the county system is short Of
supplies. The warehouses are we'll
stocked with whiskies. wines, liqu-
eurs cordials and other alcoholic
beverages. many of which are un-
obtainable in other areas. Mr. Eng
lish took reporters on a tour of the
warehouse to show that ample stocks
are on hand.
Needs of out-of-county residents
could be met also. he said, were it
not that officials believe some liquor
purchased in the county is finding
its way into many other areas and
possibly into illegal channels.
Rationing Denied.
Mr. English, who is also secretary
and treasurer Of the board, empha-
sized that the restriction is not to
be considered as rationing. 1t is
merely to prevent out-of-county
purchasers from raiding the stocks
and preventing county residents
from obtaining their share, he said.

House Measure Seeks
$1,000 Loans 10 He|p .
Veterans Settle Debts
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A plan for lending 81 200 to re-
turning servicemen to settle their
debts came up on Capitol Hill yes
terday "a possible forerunner of
measures for even broader benefits.
introduced by Representative
King, Democrat, of California, the
loan bill has been referred to the
House Banking Committee, with in
dications it will be kept there while
more comprehensive aid program
is worked out.
Mr.. Kings bill would permit the
Reconstruction Finance Corp. to un-
derWrite loans made to honorably-
discharged servicemen by private
lending institutions.
Would Bear s Per Cent Interest.
The loans would be for the proved
amount of the veterans obligations
at he time of his discharge, but not
exceeding $1,000. They would bear
6 per cent interest and be repayable
in installments over three-year
period.
NO security, lndorsers or CO.
makers would be required, the Gov
eminent acting, in effect, as the
veterans indorser.
While Mr.. Kings bill may never
get before the House. it has started
some serious congressional thinking
along such lines.
The Soldiers and Sailors Civil
Relief Act passed last year permits
veterans to 60 into court on their
discharge and have their obligatio
stayed for period equal to the
length of time they were in service
Relief Seen Too Narrow.
Some members of the House Mill
tary Affairs Committee who have
been studying the subject say the
relief thus provided may be INSULT
cient should the war last several
more years, because soldiers obli-
cations may amount, at the time of
his discharge, to a sum too large
to be handled by man trying to
readjust himself to civilian life.
If this war lasts two more years"
said one committeeman, Congress
will have to do something for these
veterans, 1t will be impossible for
many men to catch up on their past
due obligations and at the same
time meet current expenses during
the time now provided"
He suggested that a moratorium
on all veterans obligations, or even
outright payment by the Govern
ment be provided in cases where it
can be proved that the veteran has
little or no chance to get caught
up without help.
