MEN. MACHINES AND
MONEY

Most of us think of war exclu-
sively in terms of men and ma
chimes. But there is another essen
tial to the prosecution of war -
money.
The role played by banking in
this war is, therefore. OF the first
importance. Men must obtain
money to. expand their plants -
and they go to the banks. Men
must receive advice on difficult
financial restric tions laid down by
the government-and they 60 to
the banks. Billions of dollars
worth of War Bonds must be
sold to the public-and the banks
do a large part of the job. The
Treasury freezes the vast finan-
cial holdings of enemy govern
ments an enemy nations in this
country-and it is up to the banks
to see that the freeze goes quick
ly, efficiently and completely into
effect.
SO the story goes, in a hundred
varied fields of financial activity.
Banking is in the war to the hilt.
Men. machines and money make
up the combination that is neces.
sary to eventual victory.

MacARTHUR'S HEADQUART-
ERS IN AUSTRALIA, April IT,
Allied filters have sunk two 5000
ton Japanese ships, beached 5000
ton craft and crippled another g.
000-to vessel in an attack ON six
enemy ships escorted by three war
ships off Wcwak, New Guinea.
One of the 8,000-ton vessels was
blown out of the water high enough
to expose its rudder when the Fly
ing Fortresses hit its deck side with
1000 pounders.
The raid was carried out after
dusk, and then continued in day
light. The rest of the convoy fled
northeast out of range Of Allied
bombers.
Meanwhile, our pilots continued
their relentless hammering of en-
envy air bases in the arc of islands
north OF Australia, attacking Lac
and Madang, New Guinea; Gas
mata, New Britain. and also strafing
ships of the japanese off Aroe
Island and setting fire TO enemy
installations at Baucau, Timor,

CONGRESS IS
STIRRED UP
BY REPORTS
Naval Authority Says We
Can't Spare Ships
for Area
tBy Associated Press,

Reports from war correspondents
in the Aleutians telling of construc-
ton of Jap airfields, coupled with
threats from Japan of raids on the
United States today brought the
Alaskan war front to the foreground
in discussions in Congress as action
was demanded against the enemy
in the Pacific.
In Washington, d. c., Kentucky's
Senator Albert B. Chandler demand
ed that 500 fighter planes be rush
ed to China, and also declared that
Gen. Douglas Macarthur n e d S
planes badly. But Senator Alben B.
Barley replied that the war can't
be won in strategy developed in the
halls of Congress.
I'VE Are Retreating"
Senator Styles Bridges Of New
Hampshire. however, said he was
under the impression that I'VE are
retreating' in the Aleutians area,
and Senator Rufus G. Holman OF
Oregon said no one could know the
Aleutians military situation with
out being alarmed"
Senator Mon G. Wallgren of
washington said he couldn't believe
the Japs were building air bases on
Kiska because of the terrain, but
conceded they might on Attu.
Chandler retorted, II regret to
say | am in sharp disagreement"
Practically all of these Senators
last year made trip through AL
askan defense zones as members of
special investigating committee.
In press conference, meanwhile,
Secretary OF the Navy Frank Knox
remarked that on some days some
planes may bomb Kiska more than
once. Asked If American bases are
now closer to Kiska, he replied
they're pretty close.
Ships Too Scarce
But at the same time, in Houston,
Texas, Capt. Leland p. Lovette. Nav
al Director of Public Relations, said
surface vessels are not available
at this time to carry troops to the
Aleutians.
This is an unpropitious moment
for an about attack" he stated,
adding that merely throwing the
Japs out of the islands would not
end matters unless troops were gar

Tax Up in Congress;
Repeal Being Mapped

Treasury Department wasn't en-
thusiastic for this source of revenue.
Off the record, some Treasury Of
ficials called it an Al headache.
They were sure that they couldn't
collect it; that it would cost more
money to collect it than it would be
worth, that the motorists of the
country would never go in for wind

making the Postoffice Department
a tax collection agency (the stickers
were to be bought at postoffice VIM

the wrong direction.
Much to the amazement of the
Treasury. 29,59O00O car owners paid
their tax in the first year and a
half. In other words, this more on
less voluntary tax uncovered less
than 100000 tax dodgers and it
was safe reasoning that goodly

tant question of the nations health
plus the current shortage of doc
tors has been the object Of some
back stage footballing. Meanwhile
the Public Health Service warns
that we may be in for disease cpl
denies worse than those OF the
last war. Two diseases, tuberculosis
and influenza, already are on the
upswing in certain areas.
To remedy this the Public Health
Service is working on a plan for
the relocation of doctors creating
a medical pool, from which doctors
would be drafted" and sent to
parts of the country where they
are most needed.
However, the American Medical
Association, which operates a pow
erful lobby in Washington, frowns
on this plan as step toward $50
cialized medicine" They argue that
the relocation program would break
down state licensing laws. (Their
critics claim that actually ANA
state and local units don't want
outsiders coming in and competing
with local doctors)
To get to the bottom of all this
Senator Pepper of Florida proposes
a thorough investigation by the
Senate Education and Labor Com
mittee. Meanwhile the Office OF
War Information has made a pre-
liminary probe of its own. This
together with soundings already
made by Senator Pepper discloses
the following vital facts about the
nations health.
/. There will be an average OF
only one doctor to every $500 CT
