ON THE NEWS FRONT
ON THE NEWS FRONT -
Continual War With Russia Cuts 7
i Deep Into German Labor Forces

Some interesting and revealing
facts concerning Nazi Germany's S
labor shortages were noticed re-
Gently In a departmental survey by
the League Of Nations.
That Germany faces a serioN Ia
Dor shortage there is no doubt. AS
many Of her man-displacng ma
chimes wore out, and were not re-
placeable due TO blockade and 9TH
er causes. they had to be replaced
by manual labor. Blockade has
also brought about more and more
use Of synthetic processes. This
too has absorbed a large amount
Of labor.
During the first two years OF the
Nazi war many of the soldiers in
the fighting fronts were released
for service In factories, transpor-
tation. and some necessary 'serv-
ice" industries. Russia's smashing,
destructive fight ended the fur
loughing Of soldiers.
When the end Of l94l arrived the
number Of workers in NaZi indus
try amounted TO 23.9 million. This
was one million less than in 1885,
These figures stood then despite the
greater use Of women in industry,
ga million being at work in 1871.
while there had been only 8.3 mill
lion in 1889.
Furthermore. there has been al
least 1000. 600 foreign workers ''im-
ported" for service, besides using
school children over II and over
age workers. About a million and
a half war prisoners are being used.
Their labor quality is doubtful.

ticed during this present year
when. 1t Is said. many peace feel
ers will be put out by German
army officers.
To ease this drain on its labor
power, Nazi industrial officials have
countered In part by cutting civil
ian goods production. Then private
travel was restricted. Next came
indirect taxation increases in No
vember, 1871. Clothing rationing
followed. Finally. in April, 1912,
there was a sharp cut in even es-
sential food rations such as bread,
meat and fats.
Soon labor shortages forced more
NaZi revisions. Standardized prod
ucts increased. administrative ma
chinery was simplifed. the Nazi
economic organization was more
and more decentralized, and then
there was a wave of mergers in
which administrative stalls were
cut down with more responsibility
being given 10 large industrialists.
A year ago this winter when the
Russians began their first large
scale offensive thousands Of killed
and permanently wounded German
soldiers had to be replaced The
aid given by Nazi allies helped
some. But another drain on indus

more women were placed in indus
