WHEAT BAN:
Has Been Lifted

AAA wheat marketing quotas for
1912 and 1913 have been suspended
in what was announced by the de-
partment of agriculture to be a
move designed to insure adequate
wartime supplies Of the grain for
food-human and livestock.
Under the marketing quota sys-
tenn only wheat grown under their
AAA planting allotments could be
sold, used or fed by farmers. Excess
wheat so disposed Of had been SUBJ
ject to a 81 cent per bushel penalty
tax for the 1912 crop and it previous
ly had been expected that this pen
atty would amount to 60 cents on
the 1913 crop. With the quotas sus-
pended these restrictions were lift
ed.
Secretary Of Agriculture Claude
Wickard declared that when the 1943
quotas were announced in the fall
of last year this country had a rec
ord supply of 1913, 600. 900 bushels
of wheat-enough to supply normal
needs for two years. At that time
farmers were asked to use extra
wheat land for other war crops. New
consumption of wheat for human and
livestock food has gone up and as
a consequence the restriction had
to be lifted to insure supply.

ALLIED ACTION:
Renewed Demands

Renewed demands in London for
a second front came from two
sources on the heels Of Josef Stalin's
warnings that "the enemy has not
yet been defeated"
Ivan Maisky, Soviet ambassador
to London, in a fighting speech de-
clared that Russia expects IAN early
realization Of the military decisions
taken at Casablanca."
While acknowledging that the sue
cesses Of the Soviet army were
very encouraging" Maisky point
ed out that they were being achieved
at a tremendous cost Of Russian
lives and property. 1t is natural,
therefore. he said, that the USSR
expects early Allied action.
Speaking before the house of
lords, Lord Beaverbrook reiterated
demands for a second front, declar-
ing that "Whatever may be the
plans of the Germans, we should
strike and strike nov before they
can regroup their divisions . If
another attack is made on Russia,
June may be the date, so we must
strike quickly if we are to be ready.
We must invade northwestern Eu-
rope now"
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1943-03-04
FULL PRODUCTION

On other points, however, he
agrees with the White House pro-
posals. declaring some already are
in effect. He wants to bring the
1000, 900 less efficient farmers into
full production, to increase dehydra-
ton Of foods, convert truck farmers
from iceberg lettuce, etc. and or
ganize a new land army from towns
and cities. In fact, he already
has a plan we'll advanced for the
land army"
Wickard. who had hardly been
heard of before his elevation to Wal
lace's place in the cabinet, has had
clear sailing for two years, thanks
in part to good weather.
Now, however, he is facing just as
tough a job in trying to produce
more, as Wallace faced ten years
ago in trying to produce less. No
secretary of agriculture ever faced
more opposite and more difficult
problems. The average person real
ICES the problems confronting the
secretary Of agriculture. They are
exceedingly complex.
Wickard knows his position is
shaky. But he is on his mettle, fight
ing to meet the established produc.
ton goals.

POINTS:
For Rationing and Study

Moving quickly, government agen-
cies placed three varieties Of food
under control as the nation lined
up for registration for the No. 2 ra-
ton book to be used for canned, bot
tied and processed vegetables, fruits
and juices.
Shortly after the department Of
agriculture announced r~ationing Of
dried beans, peas. lentils and dried
and dehydrated soups, the Office Of
Price Administration placed whole
sale ceilings approximating 40 cents
a dozen on eggs and froze prices Of
fresh vegetables at the levels pre-
vailing between February 10 and %.
These moves put almost IS per
cent of all food under some sort Of
government regulation. The OPA's
action came as the nations house,
wives still studied the effect of the
newly announced point values of the
various canned, bottled and pro-
cessed foods rationed. To many,
point values proved much higher
than expected and undoubtedly will
lead to numerous revisions in family
fare.
On top of all this came reports
from the Capitol that cheese, but
ter, fats and oils might be included
in the next rationing program,
scheduled for meat.

ARMED FORCES:
Let George Do 1t

Since when has America adopted
as its national policy. Let George
do it?'" asked Robert P. Patter-
son, undersecretary of war, as he
discussed the need for putting
10, 300, 900 men into the armed forces
by the end Of this year. He defend
ed this plan by declaring that this
was the number needed as judged
by the commands and STATS Of both
the army and the navy.
Full account has been taken of
the ability Of American industry and
labor and agriculture to produce the
supplies needed by our forces, our
Allies and by our civilian economy"
said Patterson, and he went on to
point out that China had been actual
ly engaged in warfare for five and
a half years. that Great Britain
by the defense of its homeland had
come the closest of the United Ma
tons to an AL out" struggle and
further advanced the point that the
Russians have killed more Nazis
than all the other United Nations
combined"
Then he inquired whether it was
U. S. policy to Let George do it,"

U-BOATS:
Still Crave Menace

Sinking Of two American trans
ports in the North Atlantic with a
loss of $50 lives underlined a state
ment by Secretary Of the Navy
Frank Knox that the submarine re-
mains a grave menace to the en-
tire Allied war effort.
C%oincident with his statement,
Knox revealed that an American
destroyer succeeded in trapping a
U-boat in the Atlantic and sinking
it with a barrage of five-inch shells.
An American gun crew aboard a
freighter fired four shots to sink a
Jap submarine that had torpedoed
and severely crippled their craft in
the Pacific, Knox also revealed.
Germany is building U-boats fast
er than we r sinking them, Knox
said. The new submarines have
longer cruising range than the old
and can submerge to greater depth.
The U-boat menace is expected to
reach its peak this spring.

RUSSIANS:
Continue Drive

There vas little pause for cele-
bration as Russia's army marked
its 18th anniversary but well the
Nazis knew that the Russians had
an army. For all along the broad
front the German retreat continued.
From the northern anchor of the
Axis line in South Russia at Orel
to the northwest Caucasus the Red
drive pushed Hitler's troops toward
the Russian border.
Premier Stalin's message on the
anniversary proclaimed the mass
expulsion of the Axis forces was in
flood tide and would not soon abate.
He praised his soldiers for their
fighting spirit and urged them to be
u%nrelenting in their future battles.
