Outlines Objectives.
The objective of the committee's s
work, under the executive order, was
outlined by Father Hass in state
ment of policy.
''The objective" he said, "is to
further the prosecution of the war,
worker morale and national unity.
This duty, to give every industrial
American a chance to serve his
country, must be achieved. 1t is OBJ
viouSly basic to democracy. It is a
war necessity. It is what all right
minded people want.
"The committee is conscious that
this sound objective must be pur-
sued where wartime crowding in
houses, buses and recreation grounds
have bred irritation among decent
people, and have afforded irresponsi-
BILE persons the opportunity for
shameful mob violence. This is cause
for grave concern, but not for de-
spair.
II learned last week in Detroit,
where mixed races make tanks and
airplanes side by side, that the work.

heads at the time when hoodlums

This committee takes hope from the
decency and patriotism of the over
whelming majority of the American
people on this issue, and will carry
| out its duty in that light"

Patterson reminded the commit

started in the spring of 1912 and
was approved by the joint chief OF
staff at time when the United
States was not free from invasion
threats and when Japanese submar-
ines were operating within Slght
of the Pacific coast"
Oil For Alaska
He said the main objective OF the
plan was to supply oil to the armed
| forces in Alaska; that it was neces-
sary to support the aerial defenses
of that territory. To establish
ferry route to Russia, a chain OF
air fields was built from Edmonton.
Alberta. to Fairbanks, Alaska, and
the 1000 mile Alcan military high
way was constructed. Development
of the Norman wells fields was de-
cided upon as the most feasible way
of supplying that air route.
"All available transport, especial
| ly oil tankers, were required to re-
inforce these and other theaters
throughout the world" he said.

SkepticS
The President recalled the "skept-
ics' who questioned the nations war
production ability during the early
phase of the war, and predicted
there would be similar criticism of
plans to meet the problems of I'm
employment and want after the
war.
But" he added, II am confident
that If industry and labor and gov
eminent tackle the problems of eco
nomic adjustment after the war

with the same ingenuity, resource
fulness and boldness that they have
employed to such advantage in war
time production they can solve
them"
In a passage reminiscent of his
early new deal attacks on some
sections of American economy, the
President declared:
I'VE must not lower our sights
to pre-war levels. The goal after
the war should be the maximum
utilization of our human and mate
rial resources. This is the way to
rout the forces of insecurity and
unemployment at home as complete
ly as we shall have defeated the
forces of tyranny and oppression on
the fields of battle"

Though the main weight of the
German counter-attacks continued
