NEW BRITISH MISSION

Behind the arrival of Col John J. Llewellin, former Minister of Aircraft Production, to take over the chairmanship of the British Supply Council, here are two de- veIopments with an important bearing on the Allied war effort.
 First, the United States an d Great Britain now have unified production program corresponding to their unified command on the field Of battle.
 Second, Llewellin's arrival means tlfat for the first time the sprawl ii1k British supply missions in the United States-food, merchant ship ping, aircraft and so on-will have single operating head with pow CTS to coordinate their activities and make binding agreements in the name of the British govern nisnt.
 Heretofore, there has been little correlation of British and Amerf- can war production facilities, except for standardizing certain smaller things like ammunition In tn e larger categories-p3anes, ships and tailks--we wrote our own ticket and the British did likewise.
 The, recent visit of Oliver Lyttel- ton, British Minister of Production, marked a new departure. President Roosevelt and Lyttelton worked out an agreement whereby British and
The Daily Alaska empire., 1943-01-15

American war production would be pooled for the duration. Hereafter, the production of both countries will not serve individual needs. but will be geared to the common need.
 Roosevelt was wholeheartedly in favor of this, provided the Brit ish stationed man in the United States who could speak for the eight British supply agencies here which had to cable their ministries in London for permission to close contracts with the U. s. Govern ment. n
 Roosevelt complained that there was too m u h red tape" i'll u. S.-British war production rela- tions. Instead of depending on peri odic visits by Churchill, Lyttelton and other high officials to clear up difficulties, the President suggested a permanent overall supply spokes- man in the United States.
 Lyttelton replied that he had the man to fill the bill in Llewellin. a hard-fisted, enterprising British business man. Competent observers who have seen Llewellin in action in England believe he has the stuff 1 to make good

Conflicting planetary aspects are active today. There is a sign favor able to completion of work and fortunate for plans that relate to private business.
 HEART AND HOME: Special care of the health is enjoined when winter may bring weather eagaries and varied ailments. Women are to prove less suscep- tible to colds and stomach troubles than men at this time when stress should be put upon rest and diet. The use of alcohol may be peculi- lrly deleterious. Physicians and not reformers may be most jealous for .otal abstinence. Prohibition agita- tors will take heart, but the. stars indicate that there will not be iumptuary legislation on this issue.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Postwar financial changes will be widely discussed by bankers and finan- icrs. Silver will focus interest as members of Congress from western states antagonize associates in leated debates. Commercial uses
 or the semiprecious metal will increase greatly, it is foretold. Manufacturing emergencies will re- ult in discoveries of novel possi- oilities in utilizing many minerals md other raw materials. Out of var scarcities will emerge substi- .utes that provide resources hither- 0 untapped.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Average citizens who formerly comprised he prosperous middle class in the United States now will realize that they carry heavy burdens in taxes md increased expenses, compared with which wage earners and per- sons of wealth are favored Small businessmen and persons dependent 4pon restricted incomes will feel
 hat they are sustaining morel than their share of war responsibilities. There will be growing discentent IS savings disappear and strain in-

man today and made two sales of

AS the President started shutting
through the sheaf of bonds which
Secretary Morgenthau had placed
before him, he called attention to
the fact that there was a $1,000
bond in the lot. Then with smile
he told the Secretary to note that
none of the bonds had been stolen,
