nation by Undersecretary of War
Robert P. Patterson.
Speaking in Chicago, Patterson
advocated postwar selective serv-
ice system "in reverse" to function
as job placement agency. He ex-
planned that war department rec
ords catalog each man according to
occupation and the rehabilitation
plan would be to inform men about
to leave the army of job opportuni-
ties in their own fields.
REVOLT:
That Frances spark of independ-
ence has not been extinguished com.
pletely by the cold brutality of Nazi-
ism was proved when angry French
men fortified their homes in the old
port district of Marseilles, firing
on German soldiers who ordered
them to evacuate the district. Ger
man authorities had ordered the
evacuation apparently as a defense
measure against possible invasion
from North Africa. The move was
made after Nazi officials brought up
tanks, field guns and infantry.

LEND-LEASE:
Extension Sought

Congress is already considering
the extension of the lend-lease act
by another year-to June 30, 1914.
This early action has been taken to
insure an uninterrupted flow of war
materials between the United States
and our fighting Allies.
Though there are some verbal out
bursts expected on the role of Harry
Hopkins in the program, even Re-
publican minority leaders in con-
gress predict approval of an extern
sion for the plan. Two years ago
when it was first introduced the
United States was not at war and
there evolved one of the greatest
legislative battles of history over
passage of the measure putting the
idea in motion.
Representative Sol Bloom intro
duced the new measure Just one
day after Edward R. Stettinius Jr.,
lend-lease administrator, reported to
congress on how the eight billion dol
lar distribution of aid was made to
our Allies under terms of the pro-
gram from March II, 1941, to the
end of 1912.

dered the Chinese military mission
to the United States to come home.
At the same time stories appeared
to the effect that China felt that she
was not being given a position of
equality among the United Nations
when it came to strategy and over
all planning.
Polite Chinese
Then the head of the Chinese mis-
sion was called to the White House
and it was explained that if he with

please take nice long trip investi-
eating American war-plants until the
disturbance blew over. Perhaps he
had the promise of more of the
products of these plants. But that
has not been made public In any
case, the Chinese, noted for their
politeness acquiesced A little later
Britain and the United States signed
treaties with China relinquishing
their extraterritorial rights there
But no sooner had this step been
taken than suddenly voices, unofficial
to be sure, but fairly strident, began
asking if this Hitler first strategy
was really sound? Couldn't Britain
and the United States divide our eff
forts and still conquer?
By the time this reaches print
there may be similar statements
from official sources down under, or
from the vitality concerned Dutch,
but meanwhile, either self-generated
or Systematically inspired, continual
calls for action in the Far East now
are being heard.
Of course, this is not new. There
were similar demands which had to
be silenced by official utterances
from Roosevelt and Churchill nearly
year ago which, if they had not
sufficed alone, seemed effective
when bolstered by the launching of
the American and British expedi-
tionary forces in Africa.
Airplane's Role
By a change in the face of the
war, 1 refer particularly to the role
the airplane is to play. Aircraft is
a vital factor in offensive and de-
fensive warfare, but it has been DEM
onstrated that airpower alone doesn't
win and hold. This has been proved
by the success of the conveys which
have "gotten through" in the face of
terrible onslaughts by the Luftwaffe.
Two things have served to cut

Some weeks ago the story of the
real purpose of the visit to America
of Madame Chang Kai-shek was
told in these columns. Since then
it has been confirmed by unofficial
statements credited to Chinese
quarters her mission was a
showdown fight for an immediate Of
fensive against Japan. In the in
term two things have taken place.
The Chinese government has let it
be known unofficially that it realizes
that America is so occupied else
where that a drive on Japan with
China as a base cannot be expected
at the moment. This would seem
to be a retreat. 1t may be only
a demarche, for suddenly, from sew
eral other quarters including Aus
tralian and Dutch with many Amer
lean voices echoing in between, the
demand for "Hirohito Now" action
is being heard.
1t may be team work.
The Chinese course so far is this:
Chang Kai-shek, discouraged be-
cause of the futility of his pleas for
additional supplies and help and

supposedly unsympathetic American

Mount Whitney, whose altitude is

FARM PICTURE:
Incentive Plan

Under terms of the new "incen-
tive" program as announced by Sec
rotary of Agriculture Claude Wick
ard, U. S. producers stand to pick
up an extra 100 million dollars in
subsidy payments to be awarded
for meeting or exceeding greatly
expanded farm production goals.
Applicable to soybeans, grain sor-
ghums, peanuts, sweet potatoes, flax
and dried peas, the program would
pay growers of these crops extra
benefits for each acre on which they
exceed 80 per cent of. their goal
up to ITO per cent of that goal.
These are products which are badly
needed in the war effort to meet
deficiencies in vegetable oils and
proteins for animal feeding and hui
man consumption.
Wickard stated further that add
ed labor and materials will have to
be available to farmers if they are
to meet the goals of the program.

RALLYINC CRY:
For Russians

Il declare my appreciation to the
command and to the gallant troops.
Forward to the routing of the Ger
man invaders and their expulsion
over the boundaries of our mother
land" So declared Josef Stain in
an order of the day broadcast by
the Moscow radio.
His words, urging the Russians to
throw the Nazis out of their country,
became the rallying cry of the Red
army as it pushed forward in the
big offensives aimed at Kursk,
Kharkov and Rostov. After the fall
of these strategic points there were
still miles of hard battling ahead,
but for the first time since the Nazis
started their invasion of Russia
there were definite signs that Sta
Inns plea was not idle thinking.
For everywhere along the far
flung front-from Leningrad to the
Caucasus-the Reds added momen-
tum to their drive. Russian military
quarters estimated that 40 per cent
of the Axis electives had been
knocked out by the Red winter Of
fensive.
At the same time diplomatic cir
Giles revealed that United Nations
air and sea supply lines to Russia
were getting much better protec-
ton than few months ago because
losses on these routes have dropped
sharply. One recent U. S. convoy
was reported to have reached Rus
STA without loss of a single ship.
1t was indicated that close U. S.
British Russian cooperation was
making this possible.

RATIONINC:
Limit Set

With the beginning of rationing
but few weeks away the Office of
Price Administration established a
five-can-per-person limit as the
amount of canned vegetables and
fruits which householders might
have on hand, without penalty, at
the beginning of the point system.
This was a drastic cut from the
eight to ten cans which it had pre-
viously been expected would be al
lowed.
When the plan gets under way,
persons who have more than the al
lowable limits will have coupons torn
out of their canned goods ration
book up to the point value of the
goods held in excess. This will be
based on one eight-point coupon for
each can over five per household
member.
Excluded from the count of five
cans per person will be cans con-
tanning less than eight ounces.

Ofensiues Will Tell

While the decisions made by mill
tary leaders are secret, observers
indicated that concrete results
would become apparent with new
Allied offensives this spring.
The basic questions settled ap-
peared to be these:
l. The first great effort must be
to drive the Axis entirely from North
Africa and free the Mediterranean
supply line.
2. If he has not been chosen al
ready, a supreme Allied command
er in Europe will be named.
3. The anti-submarine warfare and
air war against Europe will be
stepped up.
4. Europe will be invaded in one of
three ways: Across the Mediterra-
mean, a frontal attack on the chan
mel coast, or conquest of Norway.
S. Aid to Russia and China will
be stepped up as much as possible.
Of immediate interest to the Unit
ed Nations is the naming of a su-
preme military commander. The
name of Gen. George c. Marshall,
chief of staff of the American army,
is most frequently mentioned. Many
observers believed he had already
been decided upon to head the COM
mand.

ARGUMENT:
Gets an Airing

For weeks Washington has reports
of unannounced differences of opin-
ion between Rubber Administrator
William LETTERS and other govern
ment and military officials over pri-
critics for the synthetic rubber pro-
gram. Finally the dispute was
brought into the open when LETTERS.
in Baltimore address, dashed out
at army and navy expediters in war
plants.
Congress decided to investigate his
charges and Donald Nelson, war pro-
duction chief, admitted the fact that
a tiff in government ranks had re-
suited over this issue. Most Wash
ington sources knew that President
Roosevelt would be required to step
in as arbiter in the dispute.
The quarrel centers around steel
priorities for synthetic rubber
plants. Army and navy officials be-
lieve that these plants should be
built only in direct relation to the
military needs of steel for the pro-
duction of such items as high-octane
gasoline, airplanes, escort vessels
and merchant ships. LETTERS con-
tended that the production efforts
coul' :" worked out in conjunction
witt another and without ham,

Frenchmen Meet

One of the most important
achievements of the conference was
the bringing about of a meeting be-
tween Gen. Charles de Gaulle and
Gen. Henri Giraud. Those leaders
of the Fighting French and French
Africa announced that they were in
complete agreement regarding the
liberation of their homeland. But it
was regrettably clear that any
merging of the two movements or
any political alliance between them
was far from being realized.

STRATEGY:
On a High Plane

When the initial surprise Of one of
the wars greatest stories - the
Roosevelt : Churchill unconditional
surrender" meeting at Casablanca
in French Morocco-had died away,
the world waited expectantly for the
carrying out of the principles of
grand strategy laid down by Allied
military leaders.
The Roosevelt-Churchill rendez-
vous was the definite tip-off of big
things to come. The Allied leaders
made it clear that their countries
would dig to the bottom of their re-
sources-if necessary-in order to
carry out the determination of Axis
war power as quickly as possible.
From a cleaning white villa near
Casablanca came the great news.
But only after complete secrecy had
officially ended. Correspondents re-
garded the meeting as one of the
best kept secrets of all time. Virtu-
ally the entire war stats of both
nations participated in the dramatic
Today discussions which ended with
a press conference. But the presi-
Dental air voyage was shrouded in
such secrecy that even some cabi-
net members did not know Mr..
Roosevelt was out of town.
No one DOUBTED but that further
important developments would stem
from the meeting. One of the most
widespread predictions is that the
North Africa editerranean area
will soon be organized into sepa-
rate theater of operations. Thus far
the United States forces in that area
have been part of the European the
alter. Separation of Africa and the
Mediterranean Basin from the Euro
pean theater might well be an i'm
portant factor in the Allied offensive
campaigns of the year.
