but also because Vatican City is
a part Of Rome.
Although there are important
military installations in Rome,
it was all-important to show
the italian people that Allied
planes could reach them every
where and that in spite Of all the
promises their Nazi allies could
not prevent American and Brit
ish planes from reaching any
desired target.
Moreover, the air promenade
over the italian capital has been
a further indication that Hitler
may promise a good many things,
but will not waste on Italy more
than the strictly necessary sup
port.
The effect Of air raids on the
morale Of the civilians has been
a hotly debated question. Ac-
cording to the proponents OF
win the war with aviation"
civilians cannot stand modern
warfare when they are being
showered with bombs at regu-
lar intervals.
British Result Cited.
Those who do not believe in
the ability OF the air arm to
administer a knockout blow
against civilian morale point out
that the Nazis have waged a
relentless air war against the
British with no other results
than to make them more deter
mined than ever to defend their
country. They also point out
that according to reports there
has been only a slight wavering
among the German population
as a result Of the fierce air
bombardments of the last four
months.
And, going further back than
the present war, 1t is pointed out
that the population Of Madrid
and, particularly, Barcelona did
not give in despite the heavy air
attacks of the Nazis and Italians
supporting Gen. Franco.
Much time has been given
lately to these matters by those
who study psychological warfare.
The consensus seems to be that
the effect Of air attacks on mo-
rale depends on the people
against whom they are directed.

Idaho Loggers End Strike
In Protest Of Meat Rations
BY the Associated Prexs

LEWISTON, Idaho, July 20-A
three-day walkout of 81 loggers in
protest over their meat rations end

It's, members OF the faculty OF the
agricultural economics depart
ment of the Cornell University
college of agriculture. Blame for
such imitation as we now have is
placed by this survey and Mr..
Gannett on increases in the wage
income of the country, rather
than on increases in food prices.
BY imitation, in this case, is meant
the rise in the costs of living.
In a letter to members of Con-
gress, Mr.. Gannett said that Of
the $42 2,000, 900 900 increase In ma
tional income between 1899 and
1912 only IA per cent went to
agriculture and sc per cent to
non-agricultural sources.
"Yet the false assertion is re-
peatedly made" Mr.. Gannett
said, that rising farm prices,
not increased wages, caused the
rise in the cost Of living. The
number of employed persons has
increased since January, 1941, by
40 per cent, rates Of hourly pay
are up IS per cent, and hours
worked per week have risen is
per cent. The combined effect
on total payrolls has been to in
crease them lit per cent. There
is the imitation"
Mr.. Gannett insisted that taxa
ton should be used as a weapon
against imitation, and that it
must be applied fairly to all who
have an increased, and therefore
inf1ationary, spending power.
Mr.. Harper and Mr.. Curtis deal
candidly in their survey with the
question Of imitation. Answer
ing the question, "Who wants in
f1ation?" they say that, judging
from current discussions of the
subject, no one wants it. But,
they continue: Every one wants
increased purchasing power; that
is, every one wants a higher level
OF consumption. This is a basic
human desire. To get 1t, his in
come must increase relative to
the price Of things he buys"
Each Has Two Aims.
Every one, therefore, Is a DR..
Jekyn and Mr.. Hyde on the ques-
ton of imitation. They said:
when he is DR.. Jekyn he is
thinking of his expenditures, and
he is then opposed to imitation.
When he is Mr.. Hyde he is
thinking of his income, and he is
a violent inf1ationist. Because
our national policy is to prevent
imitation, his public utterances
are as DR.. Jekyll, whether he is
a coal miner, a professor, a
farmer or Government official.
But in his actions he is Mr..
Hyde, and attempts to convince
the proper authorities that
higher prices of the things he
sells, or higher wages to him,
would help the war effort"
All organized groups, including
labor unions, farmers unions,
associations of university profess
sors are predominantly Mr.. Hyde
organizations. They are seeking
to increase their incomes.
1t is a tough job for members
of Congress to deal with these
complex desires. And just as
tough for the executive agencies
of the Government.
To prevent serious imitation
and at the same time fight the
war effectively, the Messrs. Har-
per conclude, "the country needs
a combination of vigorous and
widespread taxation, together
with some selective imitation. Abb
solute price control curbs pro-
duction and prevents shifts to
things we need the most"

II those who are the targets OF the
bombardments are fanatical in
their determination to resist, lit
tie can be achieved except physi-
cal destruction.
Like Situation In Reich.
The anti-Fascist Spaniards,
who knew what was expected Of
them in the event of surrender,
stood the attacks unf1inchingly.
Although at one time their mar
gin Of resistance had reached q
dangerous limit, the British were
equally determined to do or
die" The entire fate Of the
British Empire, Of which every
Briton is so proud, depended
on the stamina Of the civilians.
And they bore up successfully.
A more-or-less similar situa-
ton exists in Germany, where
the people are being told that If
they cave in at this time the
Reich will be dismembered. In
view of the fact the German peo-
pie realize how much hatred there
is in the world against them, it
seems probable that it will take
much more than round-t the clock
bombings to make them surren-
der.
The same does not apply to the
Italians. They still believe them
selves the pets of the British and
the American people. Frequently
they have shown, although not
very strongly, that they did not
relish the Mussolini regime as
much as the Germans showed
their approval Of the Nazi gov
eminent. Subconsciously they
feel that they are, in fact, not a
great menace to the peace of the
world because they are not a
warrior nation.
Food Need Acute.
The Roosevelt Churchill mani
fest and the leaflets dropped on
Rome must have made an I'M
preston on the population; more
so, since when Gen. Alexander
issued his proclamation e.s gov
ernor general of Sicily, it was evi-
dent that the civilian population
would be less interfered with
than it had been under the re-
gime Of II Duce.
The German people are hard
up for food but are not starving
to the same degree as the allies
across the Alps.
The famine In Italy has
reached serious proportions, and
the Italians know that while the
Allies have planes which will
bring destruction to their cities
they also have plenty Of food to
dispense in the event the Italian
people are willing to quit the war.
The bombardment of Rome is
regarded here as having shown
the Italians that they will not be
spared the worst horrors of war
if they continue to fight. They
need not fear either reprisals
from the Allies or dismember-
ment of their country, hence,
there is nothing vital that they
can lose in the event they decide
to throw out Mussolini and come
over to the Allies.
