District Ships
|45 Carloads
|Of Tin Cans

Forty-flve carloads of tin cans
have been collected and shipped by
the city refuse division of the Dis
tricC government since it entered
the salvage drive eight months ago,
William A. xanten, supervisor of the
division, told the Senate subcommit-
tee at hearings on the new District
appropriation bill. He said this rep
resented approximately $4,000, and
is covered into the Treasury.
You look forward in the next
fiscal year to collecting how much?"
asked Senator OMahoney.
Somewhere in the neighborhood
of $4,000. in the hope that this
item will be nearly self-liquidating,"
Mr.. Xanten replied. Il might say
that there is probably no other city
in the country which is rendering
this tin can service without cost. 1t
is thing that could cost $50 900 a
year if the collections were made
separately"

Miss Herbert Tells of
Services at Senate
Hearing on D. c. Funds

The story of how the Free Public
Library system of the District sup
plements the Library of Congress in
furnishing printed material needed
in hurry by Government war
agencies was told to the Senate SUBJ
committee on District appropriations
by Miss Clara w. Herbert. librarian
in hearings made public today.
The House added $4,000 to the
library's book fund. but to do that it
reduced the fund for personal serv-
ices by the same amount, part of
which was needed to meet unusual
demands resulting from the war
emergency. Miss Herbert agreed
that if the request for restoration
was for general reading only it might
be curtailed at this time, but, she
added:
"A good many of the war agencies
send to the Library for material
People come in to get definite infor-
nation that they need in relation to
the OCD, in relation to the armed
services, in preparation for Govern
iAiSilO "o1 n tllOSC al NCly
demands"
Mentions Agencies Supplied.
Senator Chavez, Democrat, of New
| Mexico expressed surprise that Gov
eminent agencies should go to the
local library in view of the amounts
appropriated for the Library of Con-
gresS and for the purchase of books
by Government departments.
Il think the answer to that, Sena
tor, is that there is such urgency for
| the material that the various officials

established libraries in the Govern
ment agencies that might have the
material and to ourselves Miss
Herbert replied The OPA every
single day sends 4or material"
Asked by Senator OMahoney for
other illustrations, Miss Herbert
mentioned various divisions of the
War Department, State Department
War Production Board, Office for
Emergency Management and Civil
Service Commission.
Supplied if Available.
The librarian explained that the
demand is for reference material
that officials are anxious to get
quickly.
1T may be that if they send to
the Library of Congress for it, as
am sure they do, they find that
the material is not available there
or they may try to get it from some
other Government department" she
added. However, as I say, the fact
that our library is more conveniently
located, and if the demand is not toe
highly specialized and we have the
material at all, they can get it read
lily from us"
Senator O'Mahoney inquired il
these calls from Government agen-
cieS require the library to obtain
books and material and perform
services it would not otherwise be
necessary to perform for the District
clientele.
NO" Miss Herbert answered, "only
they add to what the library doe.

High Command 10
Unity Home Front
KiIeore Committee Soys
Civilian War Effort Is
Sugeing Dangerously

Pointing to the factors causing
a further deterioration of the
domestic war effort" the Senate
War Mobilization Committee to-
day called for establishment OF
"a high command on the home
front" to unity the Nation.
During the last month, the com.
mittee declared, the home front has
"sagged even more dangerously" II
attributed the lowering of morale tc
the failure to manage decisively the
domestic economy.
The three broad areas in which
lack of policy and direction are
critical" the committee said are
production, manpower and economic
stabilization. 1t recommended, in
general, increasing war production
and balancing it with the civilian
economy, using manpower more
efficiently and intensively and sta.
bilizing the domestic economy.
Poor Planning Assailed.
The committee, headed by Senator
kilgore, Democrat of West Virginia
had this to say on its three major
points Of criticism:
Production-"Side by side with
shortages in some plants, idle in
ventories of raw materials are found
in others . Civilian supplies hover
between feast and famine"
Manpower-"In no phase Of the
war effort has there been less plan
ming and integration than in the
field of manpower. Our approach tc
this urgent question has been a mon
otonous series of piecemeal and
cropping measures unrelated to stra-
tegic and production decisions"
Economic stabilization-"Po oil cy
makers have substituted slogans fol-
action, have appeased when they
should have cracked heads, have ad-
judicated disputes when they should
have planned to prevent them. We
have proceeded in this field by Crop
ing, tentative steps, by hemming and
having, by halfway measures"
Six Recommendations Made.
The report, signed by Chairman
Kilgore and Senators Thomas, DEM
ocrat, of Utah; johnson, Democrat
of Colorado; Wallgren, Democrat, OF
Washington, and Murray, Democrat
OF Montana, recommended:
l. Across-the-board price control
at all levels of production and dis
tribution"
2. Clear-cut direction of the dis
tribution and ALLEGATION of basic food
and clothing supplies to support
rationing.
3. The formation and execution OF
a single policy on subsidies.
4. Establishment of requirements
committee to inquire into military
lease-lend and civilian needs.
S. Participation by management
labor and agriculture in a war mobil-
ization board working under direc-
ton Of the ONCE of War Mobiliza-
ton.
6. Incentive wage plans to spur
war production.
Calls Segregation Folly"
The committee said it believed il
would be folly to segregate eco
nomic stabilization from the over.

Price control must be across the

WEEK.:
Secretary of War Henry L.
Sfi,pcop.


This country has always done
lot of talking about its inherent
military power. Undoubtedly, the
most gratifying thing that has
happened to me since occupying
my present office has been to wit
ness the transition of this boas;
into tremendous initial surge of
power. 1t is time to take an inver-
tory and see how much more ef-
fort is needed and how it shall be
applied. am convinced from
what | have seen that now is the
time to devote every effort to in
creasing the pressure on our enc
mics. to the building up and ap.
plying of the one thing that they
understand and fear military
power in the air, on the ground
and on the sea. 1t would be crimi-
nal to relax at this critical time. -
General Douglas Macarthur:
ALTHOUGH for many reasons
our victories may have lacked in
glamorous focus, they have been
decisive of the final result in the
Pacific. | make no predictions as
to the time or detail, but Japan,
on the Pacific fronts, has exhaust
ed the fullest resources of concen-
trated attack of which she was
capable, has failed. and is now on
a defensive which will yield just
in proportion as we gather force
and definition. When that will be,
| do not know. but it is certain"
]. Edgar Hoover. director of the
FBI:
1--WE are fighting for freedom OF
speech, but | hope the day will
come when it will be recognized
that freedom OF speech does not
carry with it the license to des-
troy, incite. subvert. and misre-
present the truth. Sane tolerance
and democracy, like charity.

together. Every victory for in
tolerance in America is a menace
to democracy for all of us. -.

useful. We have had minor sue
