p, the Associated Press.
The vast job of foreign war relief
undertaken by public and private
organizations in the United States
is rapidly being co-ordinated by
four main groups In Washington
to achieve the fullest possible results
without duplication.
Some understanding" already
have been reached among heads of
the Office OF Foreign Relief and Re-
Mobilization. Red Cross, Lease-Lend
Administration and the Presidents
War Relief Control Board.
Other lines OF demarcation or
specific fields for each are expected
to be mapped as the work pro-
crosses.
Outline Of Agreements.
A broad outline of the agreements
thus far reached was reported to
provide for:
The OFFR to confne its activity
more or less to long-term mass feed
ing and clothing of distressed popu-
lations, beginning Immediately on
Allied reoccupation of Nazi- domi-
mated countries.
The Red Cross continuing with
emergency" feeding and the fur
nishing of medical supplies but con-
filming most of its attention in the
foreign field to work with the armed
services and the setting up of recre-
alton centers and service clubs.
Lease-lend furnishing money for
the civilian relief supplies now 60
ing to North Africa until the OFFR
headed by Herbert H. Lehman gets
an appropriation and field staff of
its own.
The Presidents War Relief Con-
troll Board under direction of Joseph
E. Davies, former Ambassador to
Russia, continuing to license and
register private agencies collecting
funds for relief in Allied and
enemy occupied countries.
Private Relief Urged.
A recent joint statement by Mr..
Lehman, Mr.. Davies and Norman
Davis, Red Cross chairman, said
it was essential to continue relief
work of private philanthropic agen-
cies, financed by public contribu-
tons, to supplement the broad op-
erations" of the ORR, other Fed
eral agencies and the Red Cross.

Gen. Macarthur explained that
one reason for this was the fact

The general gave no actual fig

Gasoline: Queen of Battles
CNew York Times


 Tn modern war the queen of battles is not the infantry It is gasoline This is stern fact that every motorist who inclined to growl at OPA's re- newed order against pleasure driving should write down and memorize
 The present shortage on the Eastern seaboard is the result of than one cause. War require ments including certainly preparations to invade Europe have drawn heavily on supplies So have the seasonal needs of farmers The Arkansas floods broke big pipe line which has been helping to feed this section But all these diversions, added up do not account for the shortage The only possible con- clusion is that many owners are doing unneces- sary driving and getting extra gasoline in improper ways
 If every drop of motor fuel could be followed from refinery to tank it would not be necessary to make pleasure" a sin. Not much pleasure is to be had by family especially in the suburban areas out of the less than gallon and half a week permitted by an "A" card. B" family, some distance from schools shopping centers and church es is not much better off Trouble arises when per mits for gasoline abused as it is clear they have been It is apparently not possible to make a careful investigation in each before such per- mits are granted nor without an inspector on every car, truck tractor and commercial fishing boat, Is it possible to check their use exactly The black market is a result, And the black market is organ ized crime, which contaminates every one who deals with it.
 The use of the police and OPA inspectors to check drivers most of whom will be found innocent may be criticized So may OPA's vacilating policy. But what good does this criticism do? There is but one course for the good citizen. He must cut out unnecessary driving The bad citizen who cares for nothing but his own convenience, must be disci- pned It is sordid, unpleasant business, but there appears to be no way out.
 Those who bear in mind that for lack of gaso- line American soldiers may die need not fear the inspectors. They will be their own inspectors.

agIeementS when once made.
 What these commitments are re- main a military secret. However certain moves which are known to all, including the Japs, should give Tokyo plenty to worry about. For it is no accident that Admiral Mi mitz, commander in the Pacific, has been recalled for conferences; or that the unsuitable Australian Prime Minister has now said he was satisfied; or that Attu was taken; or that new promises have been given to Chiang Kai-shek.
 All these straws in the wind point to hitting Japan from many different directions-Alaska, Aus tralia, Burma and the Central Pa- cific.
 This offensive in the Far East may be one substitute for a 2nd Front in Western Europe. It may not knock Hitler out of the war quite so soon, but it may make the two wars-in Europe and Asia
 finish at more nearly the same time.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 bat do not compel"
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 23

Adverse planetary aspects rue today which is unfavorable to labor. Work in certain war indus | tries may slow down at this date. HEART AND HOME: Under this configuration heads of families may have many anxieties regarding sons and daughters in war service. It is a time to seek the sustaining power of faith in the ultimate good of the nation and all depressing thoughts should be resolutely shut out of the mind. The stars presage victorious homecoming of our boys and girls now in the war and the new order is to prove that all the sacrifice was worth while.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS; Farmers are to have reason for good cheer as they see promise of bumper crops in many parts of the country Droughts and unreasonable weather may be expected in scattered areas but there will be plenty of food at harvest time even though the drains on American resources may he even heavier than estimated. Brisk trade is forecast for many cities. Theaters and other places of amusement will be extraordin- arily profitable through the entire summer.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Vacation problems will be discussed in many 1 families and despite all predictions many popular summer resorts will be well patronized. Transportation will be possible by means of clever methods of cooperation. The stars appear to indicate much camping out in ghost towns and deserted logging centers or saw mills. War workers in Colorado and California are to be lucky through special ad- vantages that climate and customs offer for those who go back to nature.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR S: 1 According to a London astrologer the aspects ruling Japans armed forces, and especially the navy. pre- sage prolonged combat with Gen eral MacArthur's command which must sustain the fierciest attacks this Summer. The fact that Gen eral MacArthur's Saturn is on Ya- mamoto's Sun is interpreted as most promising. Overconfidence in plan including the use of gas or recourse to other barbaric devices may cause a decisive defeat for Japan before many months have passed.
 Persons whose birthdate it is will benefit greatly in the coming year through the approval of em- ployers or commanders in the armed forces. Health will improve
 Children born on this day prob ably will be highly intelligent, gen. erous and lucky. They may be de- voted to family traditions, ambi- tious and able to work out note worthy careers.

 Do cattle longer die on farms?
 Strangely there seems to have been sudden end to undulant fever Bangs disease, other affctions and old age.
 Once farmers lost certain fraction of their stock to such causes. They still do, as matter of fact. But where's the evidence? Where are the diseased carcasses?

Some political prognosticators say you can predict the outcome of U S. elections by the reaction of taxi-drivers However, the charac- ter of taxi-drivers may go even further and be an index of t h e geiferal honesty and temperament of the American people.
 OWIs Katherine c. Blackburn struck a hopping mad taxi-driver in New York the other day. He had just found $1,2o0, in war say ings stamps which somebody had left in his cab. When he traced the fare" and returned the stamps, all he got was congratulations on his honesty and 25-cent tip.

ton against men with liberal record has many chapters. We wrote one chapter on June l, when we told the story of Malcolm c. Dobbs. Here is another chapter about Joseph B. Goldberg.
 Apparently not because he is a Jew, but because he contributed to funds for the Spanish Loyalists- and is proud of it-Goldberg has been cashiered from Officer Candi- date School at Aberdeen, Md, and put to work helping plant a lawn around the post exchange.
 Goldberg was one of the out standing officer candidates. His company commander praised his work and his fellow candidates elected him to the honor board, ' which metes out punishment for violation of the rules.
 After nine weeks of training, Goldberg was summarily dismissed, without explanation.
 By intervention of the chaplain, he got to the commandant, who merely said that the dismissal or der came from a higher author ity" and the reason for his dis missal was unknown to him.
 This is the star chamber method used by the Army when they ob- ject to a mans liberal beliefs-es- pecially when it comes to Loyalist Spain. sA.I
