WHICH IOCkeQ the country.
Behind-the-scene events which
brought the conflict between the
-wo men into the open and forced
President Roosevelt to uphold his
strong-willed Secretary of State
and remove Welles, a personal
friend of the Roosevelt family, are
revealed by Arthur Krock, noted
political pundit in "The State De-
partment Controversy" in the De-
cember issue of Cosmopolitan ma
gazine.
"For more than three years the
Secretary's intimates and many
others were aware of Mr.. Hulls
growing dissatisfaction with Mr..
Welles' administrative courses"
krock writes. "The Under Secretary
had fallen into the habit of pro-
nouncing major policies instead of
confning himself to exposition and
Interpretation of these as stated by
his chief. Once he had ventured, de-
scribing post war courses for the
United States, to follow an ideal
istic line pursued by the Vice Pres
ident Henry A. Wallace, instead of
that laid down by Mr.. Hull"
Worldwide repercussions result
ed from the seeming division of
authority in the State Department
as foreign diplomats complained
that they were getting completely
different information regarding pol
icies of the United States from the
two men.
In view of Secretary Hull's at
tendance at the conference of for
eign ministers of the United States,

this Christmas. However, Christ
mas of 1943 is much brighter than
wa sour Christmas of 1912. AL
though, at that time, we all believ-
ed sincerely in what the ultimate
results would be, the picture was
not quite so clear before us. Nor
will all the days that will follow in
1914 be as bright and Cheerful as
some of us would like them to be.
Once the Big Push starts, it will
mark the beginning of the end.
This will not be gained without
sacrifice, however. How great the
sacrifice, on oe can say. Let us
all pray that it will be light.
Meanwhile, those OF us who are
not bearing arms have our work
cut out for us just as clearly as
will those who will be fighting on
the battle fronts. 1t is our sacred
duty to support our men in every
way, and by every means possible.
Perhaps we're not able to join up
and carry gun, or fly plane, but
we certainly can see to it that the
Boys and Girls find the kind of an
America they have dreamed about
so often, when they return. That's
our big job right now. If you don't
believe Dribbles, ask the opinions
of some of the Boys who have come
back from the fighting zones-per-
haps you would be bit surprised
to hear how they are thinking.
And don't forget some of these
days, We'll all have to meet them
on the streets of our own little
town, face to face. Let's meet
them on as near an equal footing
as we can, by proving to them that
we were capable of tending the
flock, while they were out in the
storm driving the wolves away.
Isn't that the very least any worthy
person can do in the way of graft
tude?

increase of 4 per cent since Dec.
a, 1912, according to report from
the Bureau of Agricultural Eco
nomics, u. S. Department of Agri-
culture, based on the Delaware
Crop Reporting Service. Producers
reported that 81 per cent of all
broilers on hand were between one
and eight weeks old, and 80 per
cent over eight weeks of age. as
contrasted with year ago, when
70 per cent of all birds on hand
were between one and eight weeks
old, and only 21 per cent over nine
weeks old. Producers reported ap-
proximately eight per cent of all
birds on hand this month were over
IA weeks old, and said this long
feeding period is necessary because
of the relatively low quality of
present feed supplies.
Prices Declining
The age distribution indicates
that movement should be rather
steady between now and the first
week of February, and then the
number of finished broilers should
increase rapidly until at least the
first week of March. 1t was re-
ported that prices have been declin-
ing since early July and have been
below ceiling prices since mid-1943.

Great Britain and Russia in Mos
cow, Krock's analysis in the article
of Mr.. Hull's attitude toward Soviet
Russia is of special interest.
He points out that when Welles
had resigned the so-called "liberals"
assailed Mr.. Hull, charging him
with anti-Soviet bias and asserting
he had expressed the hope that
Russia would be bled white"
Discussing this phase of the con-
troversy the writer quotes Mr.. Hull
as having told the Soviet Ambassa-
dor to the United States in May
1941 that there was no feeling of
hostility toward Soviet Russia
either on his part or the part of
the United States.
81 told the Ambassador, Krock
quotes Mr.. Hull as saying, chat
when l think of country | think
of the people more than the gov
ernment, and that neither | nor
my government had the least hos
tility toward the peoples of any
country; that in the case of the
Soviet Union and it's government,
l had not the slightest feeling of
personal hostility, nor had my gov
ernment. stated that my govern
ment occupied very definite posi-
tion toward the worldwide move
ment of the forces of conquest and
destruction led by Hitler; that this
government proposed to exert itself
to the utmost to see that Hitler did
not get control of the high seas,
which would include Great Britain;
and that that was the one supreme
purpose we had in mind"
