Hats Off To Druggists

that the price of vitamins has nc: advanced

creased since October. 1941, and that to be

War OF Nerves Increases

! With much of Berlin in ruins, the Allies
have intensified their war OF nerves with re-
ports of some tremendous political move i'm
pending Nothing concrete is offered depend
ence being placed wholly in hints to make
the Germans junpy and c.rrd.e their brains
That the crusade is progressing favorably is
indicated by reports that the German military
chiefs believe the Berlin raids have been con-
Quoted as the preliminary step to cross chan
mel invasion of the Continent. Obviously the
Allied command has the Germans guessing,
which, as the children say is all to the good.
The more they guess the more liable are they
to be wrong. Next to a breakdown of morale
comes nervous breakdown. Whatever can
be done to fray German nerves constitutes a
definite step toward victory
To this end, the announcement by Donald
M. Nelson chief OF the American War Pro-
duction Board, that intimate facts concerning
the output of United States wa, industries are
to be made public is we'll calculated to worry
the enemy.
1t was not so long ago that Hitler was
boasting he would have all Europe in his
pocket before the Americans could get started
and shortly thereafter would launch his at
tack on this country, after its people had been
thrown into panic by his fifth column. He
apparently convinced his Army ohieftans and
and the German people that the United States
could never have part in this war more
important than to De conquered Else Amer
ica's industrial capacity and fighting ability
would have been appraised differently.
The fact that Hitler bluneered when he dis
counted the potentialities of the United States,
once it settled down both to production and
combat has been sinking in among his gen.
erals and the people he so grossly misled
for some time. The German military COM
mand has had ample oppo: Luni:v to discover
the power of American weapons in Russian
hands since Stain started to drive the Ger
mans out of his territory. and the German

city after city has been reduced to rubble by
the Raj flying planes largely made in this
country and the American Air Forces have

duced in American plants.
Now, with political campaign indicated in
the near future, Mr.. Nelson is to let it be
known how we are getting along industrially.
ostensibly for planning present and future
operations, but also to give the Germans a
clearer picture of what they are up against,
which will not be particularly good for their
nerves.

FOrtresses Prove Worth

It was freely conceded when the United
States was first participant in this war
that we had no planes that could equal Ger
many's in maneuverability and climbing and
fire power.
How well this handicap has been overcome
is seen in the report that during their first
year of operations in the north African theater.
U. S. Flying Fortresses destroyed or damaged
1,348 enemy planes and dropped s,1ol tons
of bombs on enemy targets in Tun;sa Libya,
Sicily, Sardinia, Pantelle1ia, Italy. France

This was accomplished with the loss of but
81 Fortresses, from all causes.

Raymond Clapper Says:
Subsidy Fight Raging
Furiously In Capital

mus now to begin shaking off the
shackles and getting back to a
supply and demand price basis.
About all of this, OPA officials
are becoming quite disillusioned.
When Chester BoWles, business
man, came here few months ago
to be price administrator, he as
sumed that if he could bring in
some able people from business,
reorganize and cut down expenses,
simplify some OF the over-com-
plcated legal procedures. and de-
centralize as ia, as possible, OPA
would become generally respected
and better able to carry out its
responsibilities.
Now, after going through the po-
litical wringer in Congress, he
thinks he was naive. He has come
to the conclusion that the pressure
groups and the lobbyists are not
the least interested in an OPA,
efficient or otherwise, and that
they will never be. satisfied until
it is wiped out ct existence. Could

AS Others Say 1t
HIFING VETERANS

An aircraft plant in New York
has announced policy or re-
employing service men with the
announcement that only dis
charged veterans of the present
war need apply henceforth for
jobs in the factory.
That is concrete effort to
systematic the employment of
service men who have done their
part in the war and are consid-
cred no longer physically equal
to theta SKIS of carrying on. This
concern proposes to give these
men every advantage it can in
securing jobs.
That policy cannot apply in a
practical sense throughout Ameri-

More Victory Gardens

Persons who held the Victory Garden move
ment no better than a dream have had reason
to revise their opinion since it became known
that AZ per cent of all vegetables grown IN
1913 came from these gardens, many OF which
were operated by Amateurs James H. Bur-
dett director of the National Garden Bureau,
made this announcement before the National
Victory Garden Conference IN Chicago.
The total vegetable production this year is
estimated at 18775 900 tons with large scale
truck planters accounting for 6,33200O tons.
Local market gardeners raised 4,5l3,000 tons,
and 4,740,00O tons came from Victory Gar
dens on farms. The non-fa1m gardens, those
little plots in back yards and vacant lots,
operated by amateurs, who nursed their bis
tiers and rubbed aching muscles with sanity
patience and great perseverance. produced g.
100000 tons.
Considering that this total was more than
half as great as that of planters whose chief
business is the growing Of garcen truck, it
would seem that mats should come off and
obesiance be made to the faithful and oftep
laughed-at home gardeners
Having done Sc well this year. Victory Car
deners are urged to break more raw back
yard soil and vacant lots. SO Iaat at least
2,ooo,oOO more gardens may be TILED in 1914
The government has set goal OF % 0O1, 900
plots for next year.
If, as seems probable, This country is to
bear the heaviest part of feeding the world
after the war, and with the conflict nearing
the climax, this goal, large though it be, may
prove all too small to meet the combined
domestic and world need It may even be-
family.

WASHINGTON. NO matter how
much it is disguised. the fight
over food subsidies which has
shifted to the Senate, is an issue
over a higher cost of living.
1t is an invitation to initiation.
One farm organization leader says
openly that little initiation
wouldn't be a bad thing.
The Administration is trying to
hold down prices and, at the same
time, provide farmers with a fair
return which they should have,
end also to increase production.
Republicans and farm blo C
Democrats favor dispensing with
subsidies and allowing prices to
go higher. Thus far, they have
won. Yet, although the anti-sub-
sidy bill went rolling through the
House by far more than a two
thirds majority, the separate votes
On amendments indicated that
possibly the House may not over
ride the expected veto of Presi-
cent Roosevelt.
To have to rely on a minority
vote through upnolding a veto is
an unsatisfactory way to win a
victory in a democracy. Yet re-
sistance to pressure groups is so
low in Congress that only a strong
Presidential II n d intervening
through veto apparently can keep
the balance in favor of the less
popular but sound course.

broken pipe leaked into the house.
Mrs. George Roller, 1906 Flower

the break in the pipe was caused by
faulty installation
Harry r. Hall, chief engineer of
the Washington Suburban Sanitary

however, that gas installations made
before then were not supervised and
that since this was not a new house,
no investigation would be made.
The State Legislature last year
passed an act giving the commission
authority over gas installations.
This action was taken after several
