dents Of Teachey, the patrolrnan
stated.
According to Patrolman Parvin,
the log truck owned by R. L. Bat
son of Wilmington and operated
by Justice was travelling north on

into the station wagon, turning the
truck over in the highway and
completely reversing the direction
of the station wagon.

the rumors have certain founda-
tons OF truth, but are consid-
cred here as exaggerated or in
tended for Allied consumption.
A digest of the reports reaching
Washington indicates Marshal
Badoglio is faced with two prin-
cipal problems: The presence Of
an increasingly strong Nazi
force In Northern Italy, and an
increased revolutionary spirit
gripping Italy since civil liberties
were restored. Italians feel they
now can speak their thoughts.
The Nazi representatives in
Italy-from Field Marshal Kes-
serling and Ambassador Won
Mackensen to the last Gestapo
snooper-are more active than
ever. Mackensen and the mill
tary men with him are making a
big play for the King and Badog-
Ito. They are attempting to prove
to them that the unconditional
surrender terms mean exactly
what they say and that any
country which accepts them and
throws herself at the mercy of
the victor can expect little pity
from him.
Raise Communist Bogey.
The Germans, according to
these reports, hope to convince
the Rome government that the
hidden forces of Communism,
which have existed in a dormant
form in Italy all during the MUS
solini regime, will have free rein
as soon as the Italian armies are
dishanded. and their efforts will
be directed at overthrow of the
royal house and all the mod
crate elements supporting it.
The recent violent outbreaks in
Northern Italy, which is the main
industrial section, are being used
as arguments by Hitler's repre-
sentatives. These friendly" ar
guments are backed by a con-
cealed threat that should the
Rome government accept the
terms of the Allies the Ger
mans will be compelled to es-
tablish themselves in Northern
Italy, and the rest of the coun-
try which will have surrendered
will be the scene of bloody bat
ties between the Allies and Nazis

way or another and the giving is
all to be done by the Government
with Government money.
Will Want Jobs.
Apparently the Roosevelt program
ignores the basic fact that the great
things these returning soldiers and
sailors will need and want are Jobs.
And that jobs can only be supplied
adequately by American industry.
II the latter does not flourish, then
there can be no jobs.
Apparently this idea has not en-
tered into the Roosevelt calcula-
tons. 1t would seem that his idea
Is to make all these soldiers, sailors
and marines Governmental wards,
who will look to the Government for
everything they want and be as
sured that they will receive it.
1t appears typical New Deal
plan which has been evolved by a
brain truster, based on their spend
ing philosophy and ruling out con-
sideration that the biggest, surest
and best way to solve the demobili-
zation problem is to help American
industry, which is doing the job of
war production, convert itself after
the war into peacetime production
that will supply the adequate jobs.
Plan Omits Industry.
That is what the boys will want
and what they are entitled to. They
do not want to become hand fed
sheep of the great Government
shepherd, recipients in one way or
another of administration largess
They want jobs, and these can come
only from industry.
A long time ago Charles E. Wilson,
head Of the General Electric Co. and
now the directing force in the WPB.
thinking on this problem, suggested
the creation Of a commission COM
posed Of few wise and courageous
men" and representing Government,
industry, labor, finance, farmers,
management, to consider and work
out plans. He made it clear that
there should be no place for second
grade men on this commission.
Various others seconded Mr.. Will
sons suggestion. 1t had large pub
hcity and was widely Endorsed. But
nothing was done about it. The
Roosevelt program as now revealed
takes no account of either industry
or agriculture. 1t Is not the product
OF any such commission as outlined
above. 1t Is wholly an administra-
ton program and, while some OF It's
features undoubtedly are good, it
does not provide an adequate solu-
ton for this, our most pressing post
war problem.
That solution can be found only
in the close cooperation of indus
try, labor, farmers, finance, man
agement and Government. Govern
ment cannot-and should not-do it
alone.

stance and requirements of any
future war. Perhaps a skeleton
organization might be provided
for-merely to insure the de-
velopment Of personnel. Con-
gress has attempted to do this
by making the Assistant Secre-
tary Of War responsible for max
ing plans for industrial mobiliza-
ton. Devoted work has been
done in the War Department but
there is some danger in this
method. 1t is absolutely imprac-
ticable for the War Department
to control industrial mobiliza-

co. The central control agency
must act as arbiter of conflicting
demands-the greatest of which
is that of the civilian population.
No single competitor such as the
War Department should be en-
trusted with such arbitration.
'c) The job of the War Depart
ment Is our armed forces. That
is big job. To pile on top of it
the task of economic mobilization
would insure the failure of both.
There Is an inevitable tendency
in the War Department to forget
these principles even in planning.
Their function is to say what they
want and when and where they
want it. The job of industrial
control is to see that they get it
strictly on their specification.
We must neither militarize in
dustry nor industrialize the Army.
The War Industries Board was
slowly developed by a method
of trial and error during the
war. Its organization was as
follows:
% The chairman. All the
power of the War Industries
Board and complete and undi-
vided responsibility for the per-
Torrance of its tasks were vested
In the chairman.
The board was composed OF
the heads of its grand divisions
plus a representative of the
Army, the Navy and labor, a
legal adviser, and, when neces-
sary, the heads of other war ad-
ministrations were called in
they were always in intimate
contact through representatives
of grand divisions of the board
or otherwise.
This organization was created
on the principle, Committees
for counsel-a single responsible
head for action" The board
members had no vote. The OBJ
ject was TO obtain their views,

But that does not make sense
and the fact that Mr.. Roosevelt has
now put an end to this Stiffness and
advanced a program is fine. De-
mobilization Is the greatest of all
postwar problems. Unless We talk
and think about it before the war
Is won it will be too late to avoid
far more terrible consequences than
happened IS years ago,
Not long ago. Secretary OF the
Navy Knox warned against q too
hasty rehabilitation. When the
war is over" he said. there will
be a great public clamor to bring
the boys home, but If, yielding to
that clamor, the rehabilitation is
disorderly it will be 4 devastating
, shock to our society which it easily
may not survive" Nearly every
body will agree about that.
Involves Federal Money.
Now, Mr.. Roosevelt comes forward
with 4 program and urges Congress
to see its duty and do it. 1t is en-
couraging to have a program and
to know that thought is being given
this immensely vital problem. New
ertheless, there are things about
the Roosevelt program which ought
to be understood and discussed.
For example, first, 1t should be
noted that all six points OF this
program-in fact, the whole pro-
gram-are based on handing out
Government money to the returned
soldiers and sailors and marines.
Six different ways of giving them
money are provided-but nothing
else
According to the Roosevelt pro-
gram, they are to be given large

insurance, educational training at

it in various forms. Government in
surance in various forms, liberalized
disqualification and medical care
and pensions. 1t is an immense
giving idea.
The notable omission in the Roose-
welt program is that private in
dustry, on which the economic life
Of the country depends, has nothing
to do with the program. The whole
emphasis Is on giving money ons

trail italy can be defended inch
by inch. During this time, the
major defenses In the north will
be completed and fresh Nazi
divisions which are being rushed
from the Reich will be there to
man them.
These pleas and threats Of the
Nazis have had 4 certain effect
on the Italian government. b.
doglio is believed to have made
some tentative approaches to
Washington and London through
the Vatican and other neutral
centers, but the scope Of these
approaches was to discover
whether the Allies would show
themselves more lenient than 1t
appeared In the speech made by
Prime Minister Churchill.
Badoglio seems to be under
the impression that the fall of
Fascism may have a good effect
on the Italian armed forces. He
expects the Italian army to be
IN \ better frame Of mind and
more willing to fight now that
the King has become their actual
leader. Any improvement in the
morale of the army would en-
able him to drive a better bar
gain with the Allies. So far as
Is known here, however, there is
no indication that the fighting
spirit Of the Italians has
changed.
Clashes Reported.
On the other hand. Badoglio
has an increasingly dificult do
nestle situation. After the first
squirt OF enthusiasm among the
population at the news that Mus
solini and Fascism had been
overthrown. the Italians were at
liberty to give free rein to their
various political beliefs. While
Southern and the bulk of Central
Italy are said to be royaGst, the
industrial north is Republican
and Communist.
From the maze of conflicting
reports, it can be gathered that
within 48 hours after the over
throw of Mussolini and his gang
there were clashes between the
new authorities and the popula-
ton. These were not created by
hunger or dissatisfaction with the
war alone.
The clashes were caused, so far
as 1t can be ascertained here. by
the fact the industrial populat ton
In that area no longer wants
King or a government headed by
= hard boiled marshal. The
Communist cells which have been
in hiding are working together
with the Republicans.
Badoglio is trying to suppress
these manifestations by force. He
is allowing the people to loot the
well-stocked larders of the Fas-
cist officials and does not mind
when they are killed. But when
the demonstrations take violent
anti-dynastic form he is applying
the mailed fist. How long he will
be able to do so Is unknown here.
In some quarters 1t is believed
that his political regime will be
short-hved unless ne realizes that
In order to save the dynasty and
to avoid chaos In his country, he
had better accept the Allied terms
for peace and take his chances
with the Nasis.
