STOCKHOLM Nov. QNS)-On the eve of
Germany's fifth winter at war, morale on her home
front is at such low ebb that only the gestapos
strategy of terror can delay the inevitable collapse
for many more months.
Here, in Sweden, it is possible to feel the pulse
of the German people through businessmen work
ers and others recently returned from the Reich,
through neutral diplomatic channels, and through
careful analysis of the latest Naz DEGREES and press
statements.
The almost unanimous diagnosis is that the
signs of fearful gloom and desperation are multiply
ing. The German people are war-weary and disillu-
stoned Premonitions of approaching disasteIs-far
greater than anything they have sustained thus far
have aggravated the situation with an epidemic
of which the gestapo is trying to suppress by
tightening its grip every individual in the Reich

UNEMPLOYMENT SEEN

AS the largest employer in the
Detroit area, the auto industry
will determine the city.s postwar
prospects. not only of itself but Of
the other industries of any i'm
portance. the survey states.
Summarizing what wiz happen
when the war terminates, il points
out:
Detroit automobile firms
and the people working in them
will not be able 10 avoid a
period of profound readjust-
ment. IL seems very likely that,
for a few months at least. there
will be volume of unemploy-
ment running into the hundreds
Of thousands in the Detroit
area"
The survey bases this on the
fact that the industrial population
here has been more than doubled
and that, while MANY women and
average workers will not want 10
stay in the plants. the returning
soldiers and the number of en-
ployes released from war work
will be too much 10 be absorbed
into the manufacture of automo-
bileS and trucks alone.

5000 Japanese Work AS
Farm LabOrers

More than 5000 workers of Jap
anese descent who have been living
at the relocation centers in six west
ern states have taken seasonal farm
labor jobs, according to reports by
the War Relocation Authority. They
are helping plant and cultivate the
food required for our war time econo-
my.
The number is growing each week
as more are granted leave from the
relocation centers for seasonal en-
ployment. Last year nearly 10000
of these people who had been evac-
uated from the Pacific coast area
took seasonal farm work, mostly in
the sugar beet sections of the inter-
mountain states. They harvested
enough sugar beets to produce 3O0,-
900, 900 pounds of refined sugar.

The descendants allege that the new

grounds that it takes away privileges
from certain people still enjoyed py
others. The law, it is alleged, grants
special privileges to soldiers and sail

Demand Proper
Distribution OF Gas

Demand for proper distribution
of gas supplies, to avert transporta-
ton chaos in Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and 9TH
er Eastern States, is made by the
keystone Automobile Club, in a
statement asserting that the Middle
West should be called upon to share
some of it's abundant supplies with
the gas-starved East.
1.-THE midwest right now" said R,
j. Quinn, Acting Manager of the
Club, lis using disproportionate
share of available gas supplies and
transportation facilities at the ex-
pense of the East. There is no time
to be lost in acting to correct that
situation by rationing equally the
existing gas and oil supplies as we'll
as existing transport facilities for
moving that gas and oil.
eff there were no conceivable
means of allevating the present dras-
tic shortage, largely caused by tre-
mendously increased military de-
mands, Eastern motorists would
make the sacrifice in silence. But
with supplies and transport facili-
ties reported to be available for par
tial diversion to Eastern use, with
out causing undue hardship on any
other section of the country, action
should be taken at once to prevent
a continuance of the geographical
discrimination which has been visited
upon the Atlantic seaboard motoring
public"

morning. The pupils and teachers
marched to the lawn of Mr.. and Mrs.

ned to enjoy the annual treat of ice
cream and cookies. Just as the trays
were filed with cookies the AFRAID
signal sounded. Every one picked up
trays, packages, etc., and marched in
perfect order to the church base
ment, with the exception of two chill
dren who ran on ahead. The ice
cream was stranded at the restau-
rant, but arrived later, when the
treat was very much enjoyed. This
occasion has shown how orderly little
folks can be if caught in an air raid.

A HARD ROW
TO HOE

Harvesting and packing our local
canning crops is going to be hard
row to hoe. Our local canning plant
and our farmers who grow the can
ming crops are now engaged in one of
the most critical battles of the war
producing food for the armed forces.
To do the job, it looks as though it
may take the help of every last one
of us. And there'll be little, If any,
glory. No one will wave any flags or
pin any ribbons on our breasts. But,
as each can is packed, sealed and
sent on it's way, it should make all
of us just little bit happier to real
ize that somewhere-it may be
China, England or Africa-but
somewhere in this unhappy world
American boys, and American Allies,
will eat the good fruits from the
fields of Cecil County. That will be
our reward.
No, it's not going to be easy. It's
going to be plain hard work. But
fighting on any front is hard work
backbreaking, heartbreaking. The
people of Cecil County know this.
They know the job they've taken on
and they have the stout hearts to
finish it.
It's particularly difficult because
it must all be done at one time. AS
Claude R. Wickard, Secretary of
Agriculture, said few weeks ago
"This food business is all one. The
farm production must be packaged,
shipped and distributed before food
can win the war-or write the
peace So for few weeks, we will
concentrate on getting our end of
this job done. We will pick and we
will pack. We will see that Cecil
County does it's share in writing the
peace-in food. We will see that
every bean and pea and tomato is in
a can and on its way before we stop
to rest.
But we are going to do it-with-
out flinching and without faltering.
