SPENDING SPREE:
81 Billions in ~

Americans dipped into their war
swollen pocketbooks to the tune of
SOL, 900, 100000 in 1912 in a spending
wave that exceeded all previous rec
ords, according to compilation by
the U. S. department Of commerce.
Officials of the commerce depart
ment warned that this spending
spree would continue undated in
1943 unless more effective steps
were taken in price control. ration
ing and fiscal policies. Public spend
ing last year was 10 per cent above
1925 all-time high of $74, 800, 000, 900.
While spending for food rose from
$1S, 1000, 900, 900 in 1889 to $27, 647, 0OO,-
900 last year and clothing and furni-
ture purchases showed comparable
gains, some decreases in various
categories of spending were noted.
Among the most outstanding of these
was the outlay for automobiles
which declined from So, 264, 100000 in
1e41 to $513,000,oo in 1912.

FLOUR:
10 Millers Indicted

In Chicago a federal grand jury
indicted 16 flour milling companies
and the industry's trade association
on charges of conspiracy to fix prices
of packaged family four-the kind
ordinarily sold for use in homes
throughout the United States.
The indictment charged that the
defendants who mill 81 per cent of
the 45,0OO,00O barrels of family flour
sold annually met from time to time
and agreed upon uniform schedule
of price differentials to be applied
to the various sizes of packages in
which the flour is sold. Addition of
packaging charges had the effect of
increasing bulk prices charged by
millers by more than 100 per cent in
some sizes, the indictment alleged.
The Miller's federation in state
ment declared "there are no price
agreements in the milling industry
and there is no price fixing of family
-four"

ABSENTEES:
Women Worst Offenders

women war workers were charged
with being guilty of almost twice as
much absenteeism as men, in a re-
port compiled by the National In
dustrlal Conference board.
Covering sample" group of %
plants employing 1O6, $40 persons, the
report showed that in a single month
1888 worker-days had been lost
and that female employees aver
aged 1.16 days out of the month
while male workers lost O.65 dav

Women showed a greater tendency
to be absent for personal reasons,
the survey disclosed. The board
found that 50.4 per cent of their alb
sences were in this compared with
47.8 per cent for men.

DOCTORS:
Rural u. S. Praised

Praising the rural areas of the
United States for having in many
instances exceeded their quotas In
contributing doctors to the nations
armed forces, the American Medi-
cal association declared that enroll
ments of medical officers in the
army and navy are tagging because
of the failure of young available
physicians in large cities to volun-
teer for duty. This situation is par
ticularly prevalent along the East
ern seaboard, the associations Off
cial magazine charged.
The fact that the armed services
are not getting all the doctors they
need was disclosed at recent
meeting with military authorities in
Washington, the Journal of the
American Medical Association said.
The conference revealed that 5000
doctors must be drawn from the CT
william population this year.

RAW MATERIALS:
Allies No1v Solvent

William L. Bait, vice chairman of
the War Production board, an
nounced that the United Nations
have now achieved "solvency" in
raw materials and "are assured of
sufficient amounts of all kinds to
meet any military needs regardless
OF the length of the war"
mo material is being used faster
by the United Nations today than is
being produced" he said. 1T can
be stated with complete safety that
whatever the length of the war, am
pie raw materials are available to
meet our military needs"
Bait credited the accomplishment
to the combined raw materials board
of the United Nations, established by
President Roosevelt and Prime Min
lister Churchill in their White House
conferences in December. 1941.

RUSSIA:
Action SLuckens

Although the tempo of battle on
the Russian front had slowed down
and action appeared to be drifting
into deadlock in several sectors,
the Red army had continued its dog
ged drive through the spring slush
and mud toward Smolensk.
Meanwhile German onslaughts de-
signed to gain control of the upper
Donets river valley had slackened
following the furious resistance of
the Russian defenders.
The Russian move toward Smo-
lensk took the form of north-south
drive. The heaviest assault. A So

thrusts by the Red forces north of

SOUTH PACIFIC:
Prelude to Storm?

A lull in activity on both the Allied
and Jap sides of the Pacific war had
been taken by some observers to be
merely the prelude to storm
ahead.
Action for some days was con-
fined to local air and sea attacks in
various sectors of the South Pacific.
In the Solomon islands, air raids
were traded. American bombers
strafed Rekata bay, while the Japs
inflicted some damage on Guadal-
canal. Further to the east, an Amer
lean submarine torpedoed and sank
a japanese submarine. In Burma,
American fiers attacked the long
railway viaduct between Mandalay
and Lashio, bridge north of Ran
COON and the Thai railway juno
ton. The Raj bombed Donbaik,
north of Akyb.
In Honan province, China, it was
reported that II, 1000, 900 persons were
facing starvation before the next
harvest unless they received inme-
diate aid.

WAR BONDS:

"They give their lives-You lend

That is the slogan of the treasury
departments second War Loan drive
opening April IL, which has as its
objective raising 10 billion dollars
through the sale of government
securities. A substantial part of this
vast financing-the most stupendous
in world history-will be loaned by
people in ordinary walks of life.
Financial experts point out that
there are in liquid funds in the U. S.
at present, more than 40 billion dol
lars which should go into the pur-
chase of government bonds. It is
from this huge reservoir that the
treasury expects to meet its new
goal.

AIR RAIDS:
Woe to Axiis

Axis-held Europe will soon be SUBJ
jected to 'round-the-clock air raids
in which newer, bigger and faster
American bombers will carry three
or four times the bomb weight of
present Flying Fortresses.
This prediction was made in Lon
don by Maj. Gen. Ira c. Eaker,
commander of the U. S. army air
forces in Britain. American forces,
he said, are now ready to build up a
striking power on a par with that of
the Royal air force. Soon, he added,
will begin the sustained offensive in
which the Americans will strike at
Europe by day and the British will
bomb by night.
General Eaker disclosed that in
series of 81 raids, the U. S, army
air force has lost fewer than 80
bombers, while destroying at least
$50 enemy aircraft.
The Germans are struggling for
an answer to the Flying Fortresses,
he concluded, and the type of air.
craft they are sending against the
Forts is zone indication of how
badly they have been forced to
stretch their defenses."

NORTH AFRICA:
Rough Road ahead

The battle to clear the Axis out
Of Tunisia was going to take time.
RommePs army still had an offensive
''kick." The struggle was likely to
get tougher before it got better.
These facts emerged more clearly
as the memorable pressure of the
Allied forces ringing the enemy was
met by counter attacks which had
regained for RommePs army much
of the ground lost when the British
Eighth army sliced into the Mareth
line.
The communicates did not indicate
any lessening of the Allied effort.
They merely served to show that
the battle was by no means won
at the present time. The conviction
of an ultimate Axis defeat contin-
ued.
While the British stoutly contest
ed the Nazi forces in the South, the
Americans under Lieut.. Gen. George
S. Patton not only held their previ-
Gus gains at Ell Guettar in the
waist of Tunisia but pushed on
east of Maknassy in drive on the
coastal road designed to hem in the
-Afrika Korps toward Gabes and Sfax
on the Mediterranean.

FOOD:
3-Way attack

No stranger to farm problems,
food production or the delicate job OF
dealing with recalcitrant congress
men was Chester C.. Davis, recently
appointed chief of the new Admin
istration of Food Production and
Distribution. Former head OF the
Agricultural Adjustment adminlstra-
ton, Davis knew the ropes in Wash
ington and how to keep from get
ting tangled in them.
For weeks the capital had expect
ed some action in the increasingly
critical food production situation BY
relieving hard-pressed Secretary OF
Agriculture Wickard of his food ad-
ministrator tasks and appointing Mr..
Davis as sole food car, President
Roosevelt had created new three
way agency, combining the Food
Production administration, the Food
Distribution administration and the
Farm Labor administration.
Closer working agreements be-
tween congress and the food admin
istration and minimum of official
friction in dealing with war-created
farm problems were expected to re-
suit under Davis administration.
Observers agreed that Davis had
one of the toughest jobs in history,
but they were betting he would win.
