Dinner-as-usu is not just
around the corner. Despite our
all-time high in food production
for l943, there will not be
enough food in total TO satisfy
all demands here and abroad,
and there will be a continuing
shortage of some of our favorite
foods.

Navy Departments, as we'll as

Sept. 9 - (P) - Sounds of
heavy firing, apparently coming
from a point off the French
coast, were heard late last night
in this town on the Bay of Bis
cay near the Spanish-French
frontier.
The noise stirred speculation
that allied warships might have
been exchanging fire with Ger

Victories Bring Increasing
Shortages on Home Front

a day and Juggling the rabbit for
dinner instead OF broiling
beefsteak, there will be a war
reason behind il.
The Nazi policy has been 10
conquer first, then starve the
conquered people. But the AL
lies feed the vanquished. We
learned on the .ong march from
Casablanca TO Tunisia that food
is a good antidote to Nazi propa-
ganda. And We are learning
quickly in Sic,l that victuals
nurture victory.
Roy F. Hendrickson, director
of the Food Distribution Admin
istration, says TODD must follow
our armies very closely if we
intend TO win unconditional
peace as well as unconditional
surrender with a minimum loss
of life. For that reason, the
greater the success of our arm
les, the greater the need for
careful food management.
1t isn't humanitarianism that
prompts our determination TO
feed the vanquished until
threats Of food riots. revolution
and burning hatred succumb TO
the more stable promptings of
nourished minds It's mill
tary tactic 10 hasten victory and
cut down our casualty lists. Food
consumption in Italy is about 80
per cent below prewar stand
ards, and about the same in
France, Belgium and other lands
under the Hitler shadow.
WILL RE-EQUlF EUROPE
Herbert II. Lehman, Director
of the Office OF Foreign Relief
and Rehabilitation Operations,
insists that when the fighting
stops, our immediate job will be
the relief of famine. However,
once that job is done, he
believes that Europe can be
he believes that Europe can be
helped TO produce for herself
again. We then shall pass into
the sound commercial proceed
ure of replenishing European
farms with livestock, machinery,
seeds and fertilizer. The de-
mand for these things will be
tremendous for 10 10 Is years,
and if intelligently handled will
prevent any such collapse of
prices as followed the last war.
The War Food Administra-
ton. Office of Price Administra-
ton, Owl and the War Ad-
vertising Council are starting a
concerted effort to make the ma
ton aware of our overall food
problem-in terms of civilian
consumption. Army and Navy
needs. Lend-lease, rehabilitation
and other demands for food
caused by war and normal liv-
ing The campaign, now under
way, is labeled Food Fights For
Freedom" Underlying the cam
paign is the recognition of the
fact that the demand for food
has increased faster than the
possible supply. So something
must be done about il.
WHY FEED ENEMIES?
Largely because of lack of in
formation, some civilians resent
and have opposed the policy of
feeding conquered peoples when
we at home must endure short
ages. Many parents who brave
ly have given their sons 10 the
armed forces question the wis
dom of giving mess of soy
beans 10 defeated Italians.
Much of this resentment is
based on the false belief that we
are feeding Europeans through
philanthropic motives rather
than as part of our overall mill
tary policy.

Doctor Fovors
Older Worker

Boston, June 29-(UP)--Dr. Ross
A. Mcfarland, Harvard psychologist,
said today that prejudices against
older workers industry were not we'll
founded and that industry had re-
ported great returns from the labor
of older men and women.
Writing in the Harvard Business
Review, DR.. Mcfarland said that in
dustry has been forced by the war
to use an increasing number of old
er workers, but that it "has turned
out to be bargain" He added that
older workers contribution to pro-
duction, both in quality and guam
tity, was far greater than usually
believed.
To back up his contention, he
cited evidence drawn from labora-
tory tests, statistical studies and
clinical observatio" in industrial
medicine.
DR.. Mcfarland did not deny GER
tain bodily changes occurring dur
ing the growing old processes but he
insisted that compensation equalizes
the value of the worker. IF certain
capacities diminish, others are en-

differences between the former food

Those sources said Davis and
Vinson clashed frequently after the
latter was appointed to take James
F. Byrnes' old post early this
month. One dispute, it was said, in
volved the handling of the current
corn shortage. Davis advocated all
possible steps to force corn onto the
market; Vinson was said to believe
farmers should be permitted to feed
their crops to hogs in order to OBJ
tain higher return on the pro-
duce.
Jones who headed the United

The Axis reported today
that an immense Allied fleet

off invasion. Axis reports
specialized that invasion

German news agency dispatches

SO far this month in the Mediter-

the Germans admitted heavy Soviet
attacks at several points on the long
Russian front and dispatches from
Berlin to Stockholm predicted June

lowest of the war. The Stockholm
