Production Campaign
''
Cincinnati Enquirer


 When the history of the war is written, to the enterprise and ingenuity of American manufacturing will go great share of the credit for victory. While the start comparatively slow the enthusiasm with which industry has cooperated with the Army and Navy to meet the demands of has been little short of amazing.
 We recall the day when President Roosevelt de- clared United States airplane production would be geared to turning out 50000 units year Some ndustriasts thought his figures too high, Axis lands shouted that it would be utterly impossible to build airplanes production line basis But when it became apparent that that many planes, or more, would be needed for victory, the plants were built and ships began rolling out at unheard-of speed In November the total was 8,789.
 We long ago passed the 50,000-a-year schedule. In spite variety of ever-changing designs we will build this year more than 100000, many of them tremendous bombers Next years goal-and 1t will be met-will approach 115,000 Included in the list will be many Of the superrang bombing craft, capable of greater loads and distances than is today the rule
 Strides have not been made in the building of aircraft alone We are turning out ships at rate that never would have been believed possible few years ago Merchant craft well as war craft are slipping down the launching ways in every part of the country Seagoing ships arc being built hundreds of miles from salt water They're building them so fast, one wag said, that they can't launch em endwise any longer because of the extra time involved They send 'em in sdewise and start work on new hull
 Guns tanks ammunition food, clothing-all this American industry is producing in record quantities for the winning of a record And all the while the demands of a high level of civilian living are being fulfilled The campaign of home-front produc- ton has been tough one, but it's being won with characteristic American thoroughness vgor and success.

that her step-mother's sister, a Catholic nun, had willed half of the family property to the Catholic Church when she died in 1890,
 A court order giving the Church title to this part of the property and therefore making it untaxable, wasn't decided until 1889, iong after the three-year statute of linn itations, governing Mrs. Karsch's right to file for tax refund, had run out. Lower courts upheld re- fund claim, but the Supreme Court ruled otherwise, and so did the President in his veto of the bill tc reimburse Mrs. Karsch for the $7,000 she had paid in taxes.
 However, the Senate over-rode both the President and the Supreme Court by lopsided vote of 65 to

PRIVATE CLAIMS BILLS IN
 CONGRESS

It was overlooked in the midst of more important news but, for the first time in history, the Senate re- gently over-rode Presidential veto of private claims bill The bill was for the relief of Mrs Blanche H. Karsch of Memphis, Tennessee, who had paid more than S7,000 in in- heritance taxes on property sup posed to belong to her step-mother but which her step-mother didn't own.
 Hundreds of private claims bills are introduced in Congress every year and many of them are passed, but always with tongue n-cheek attitude because the White House is expected to veto them. Never before in the memory of Senate observers has the veto of a claims bill been over-ridden
 Senator Kenneth McKellar of Tennessee, engineer of the over-ri- der, disclosed that Mrs. Karsch had paid the taxes in 1881, not knowing

ANTI-NEW DEAL DEMOCRATS

Out in Kansas, a Republican editor by the name of John w. Breyfogle is insnuating that there is a breach in the Democratic Party between Rooseveltian Democrats and Anti New Dealers. He is carrying on a campaign to form a party made up of Anti-New Dealers on the one hand, and Republicans who see no victory for the minority party on the other hand to back Democrat, Senator Harry Byrd of Virginia, for President.
 Senator Byrd is the who has been pointing out in a great many places the evils of the bureau system And though he is a Democrat he is definitely not Roosevelt Democrat
 Breyfogle argues that in the last two Presidential elections, some Democrats well the Republicans opposed the New Deal and the Presidents absorption of the Democratic Party into the New Dealand that these two groups majority the New Dealers
 So why let the minority win again. he asks, by

 Benefic aspects should be forum ate for the nation. Washington should have good news regarding plans for l944
 HEART AND HOME. Heads of families should benefit today. Un- der this configuration domestic mis- understandings should be forgotten and harmony prevail. Divorce suits are likely to be withdrawn under the kindly planetary influences that prevail this week.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS; Higher wages and salary bonuses Will tempt thousands of Americans to purchase costly yet practical gifts for the holiday Merchants will pro : fit and general prosperity will ease the inconvenience of wartime re- strictions. Money may be less plen- tiful next Christmas.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: All the signs appear to promise to the United States first place among the nations of the world. After the war there must be wise partner ship established with the British government, although differences of opinion may cause temporary mis- understanding between the two great Allies. Subversive agencies will foment trouble.
 INTERNATIONAL A F F A l R 5 /: After many victories in the Paciflc the United Nations will deal de- cisiye blow at Japan. Our tremen- dous force will prevent further of fensives by the enemy, 1t IS pro phesied. Surprising resources will probably enable our Oriental foe to continue defensive fighting for a long period.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of prosperity in which happiness comes through new friendships.

 So far Breyfog1e has had little success He has been told that because the Republicans tasted blood instead of ashes in the last election they aren't SC sure but what they can do all right on their own He has also been told that men like Senator Byrd still prefer to do their running under the same old party in spite of differences between and ideas
 There has been a small spurt of Byrd for Presi- dent activity in the South but hardly enough else where to give him tie support he would need to get the presidential nomination, because in the event that Roosevelt declines to run for fourth term every effort will be made find candidate accept able to Roosevelt's And it won't be Byrd
