40 Per Cent Stepup Urged
In u. 5. Tea Allotment
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-Benjamin
Wood, managing director of the
Tea Bureau, said yesterday the gov
ernment should step up the United
States tea allotment by 40 per cent
or more before December 81 to avert
consumer shortages and to allow re-
tailers to build up inventories.
He said a minimum increase of
10000 900 pounds above the present
1943 ALLEGATION of 50,O00,0O0 was es-
sential, adding reports from India
indicated stockpiles were sufficient
to provide such an improvement if
shipping were made available.
Mr. Wood said a second quarterly
survey of stocks showed an estimated
five months supply of tea in the
country.
Actual trade stocks at mid-year
were about 100000 pounds, COM
pared with l,009, 900 on March 81
or sufficient to supply present re-
stricted de m n for about 212
months.
An additional estimated 10000 900
to 1000, 900 pounds, however, al
ready has been allocated to the
trade but not yet received, placing
the stocks position equivalent to
about a five months supply.

The men applauded Concert
master Piastro roundly when he

standably they plays less well
than they might have done for
John Barbirolli in the program
that followed. There was a feeling
of tension, lot of over-bI0wing.
and few unsteady spots.
II is now the fashion to remark.
when Fritz Kreisler appears. that
il would not matter whether he
played violin at all, such is his dig
nifty, poise and general nobility of
bearing. This time Mr.. Barbirolli
had gracefully yielded the meat Of
the program to Kreisler, who
played two concertoS-his own in
c major, and Viotti's in q minor.
And the news of the occasion
was that the first of these is one
of the long list of compositions
that Kreisler wrote many years
ago and credited slyly TO compos-
ers out of the far past. 1t was sup
posed to have been a transcription
from Antonio Vivaldi, and by odd
chance this performance was the
first PLAYED by the Philharmonic.

PRAISES BUSINESS MEN

Mr.. James " Forrestal, Undersecre-
tary of the Navy, recently told House
committee that "ninety-five per cent of the
men in American business are quite con-
scicus Of the undesirability of excessive
profits
The Naval official was discussing
agreements involving the renegotiation Of
contracts and reducing prices when it was
discovered that expanded profits was low
ering costs.
We think Mr.. Foirestal is right in his
belief hat such high percentage Of
American business leaders take this spIen-
did attitude. We are willing to go further
and assert that ninety-five per cent Of the
business men of America are for fair bust
ness methods, honesty in trade and against
special privileges that rock the consumer
The mystery that we have never un-
deistoed is why such large proportion of
business men permit a small minority to
practice such crooked policies as to give
business in general shady reputation.

MUCH FOR ALL TO LEARN

The church leaders of the nation have
heard repeatedly that soldiers and sailors,
in the face Of death in the service of their
country, have meekly turned to God, seek
ing succor from their Creator in the hour of
agonizing need.
Many of these men have not been ac-
lively connected with church organiza-
tons. Obviously, so far as they were con-
cerned, the church meant little or nothing
Apparently, there is an opportunity for
church leaders to do a little thinking on
their own.
Men and women, as a rule, believe IN
God. They have certain fundamental re-
ligions which are deeply imbedded in their
beings. 1t is the business of church organiza-
tons to give them full opportunity to sex-
press and develop this religious faith.
Why should an individual have to face
death and suffer to- experience the feel of
religion? Plainly, because nobody has
made known to him, or her, the full mean
ing of religion as a source of constant power
in everyday living
1t may be possible that while these
fighting men are turning to God and seek
ing religious understanding the good people
of various faiths might develop a deeper
understanding of human nature and thus
seek to intelligently instruct the unen-
lightened in the way of truth.
