POSTWAR GERMANY:
Allied Plans

With Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau's proposal for stripping
Germany of all of it's manufactures
and reducing the country to an agri-
cultural basis rejected, Allied post
war plans looked forward to the
maintenance of the Reich's industrial
machine under close supervision.
Challenging Morgenthau's posi-
ton, Secretary of State Hull and
Secretary of War Stinson declared
that not only did Germany turn out
certain essential industrial products
for the rest of Europe, but that its
business also put it in the market to
purchase other countries goods.
In order to check German indus
try's war-making capacity, Allied
plans call for control over all strate-
gic materials, with possible elimina-
ton of factories adapted to arms
production.

RADIO TUBES:
Small Surplus

With such scarce radio tubes as
the 12SA7 and 12A8 commanding as
much as $40 in black markets, army
release of 100000 surplus tubes
for civilian use will tend to only
slightly ease the tight supply stu
alton.
To be returned to manufacturers
for testing and packing before dis
tribution to customers on an ''equi-
table basis" the 100000 tubes will
not even approximate the produc-
ton of 1,754,000 in July, which met
only a fraction of the demand.
Because of the services extensive
use Of radio equipment for COM
munications between units on the
fighting fronts, trade circles saw
little hope for increased civilian sup
plies until Germany's defeat per-
mitted cutback in military orders.

market in October until production

relief in the tight supply was seen.
Said OPA Administrator Chester
Bowles: &c. We civilians are GO
ing to have to get along with less
butter than formerly, at least during
the next 80 days or so. ;. :"
Besides reserving 1875, 600, 900
pounds of the present stocks of 1885,
100000 pounds, the government has
been purchasing great quantities of
butter fat from producers for pow
dered milk and other uses.

FOOD STOCKS:
Orderly Disposal

With the War Food administra-
ton already feeding the govern
ment's excess stocks of food to civil
ian outlets without disrupting the
markets, U. S. officials will make
every effort to maintain orderly dis
posal of SURPRISES with the wars
end, VIA distribution director Lee
Marshall said.
eve must maintain specified war
reserves no matter how favorable
the war may be going" he said,
"but I, for one, don't think it neces-
sary to build separate stockpile of
the same foods for postwar relief
feeding"
In disposing of SURPRISES, Marshall
said, salable goods would first be Of
fered to companies which furnished
the government with the products.
Others in the same business would
be given second choice. Goods re-
naming would be offered to others
in the food business.

tons may alter many Of the women
workers plans, it was said.
First Of all. peacetime jobs for
women probably will average less
money and not be as desirable.
Then, too, there will be the public
pressure for women to return to the
home and give up jobs to war vets.
After World War I, such influences
reduced the sizeable employment of
women to normal in about two years.
Nonetheless, enough women are
expected to remain in the job mar
ket after the present conflict to be
factor in the employment situation.

to stem their drive. the Allies
pushed on, with Lieut.. Gen. Mark
Clark's American Fifth army
threatening to close an escape
route for stubborn enemy troops
ringed between it and the British
Eighth army to the east.
AS the remnants of Germany's
Baltic armies pulled out of Latvia,
the spotlight on the eastern front
swung back to East Prussia in the
north and Hungary on the south,
where the Reds pushed offensives to
crack these anchors of the Nazis'
eastern front.
While the Germans could fall
back on swampy, wooded lake coun-
try in HAST Prussia to slow the Rus

strong German counterattacks
were aimed at thwarting Cen
eral Dempsey's. Tommies from
pressing past the northern an
Choir of the Siegfried line at
Kleve, and of throwing an arm
to the great water basin of the
Zuider Zee to the northwest to
cut off an estimated 100000
Nazis still engaged in the lower
extremity of the country.
In addition to employing masses
of tanks against General Patton's
men before the Saar, the enemy
also made good use of the billy and
wooded terrain in the sector to re-
duce thevaliant doughboys' advances
to yards.
AS the fighting ragged to the north
and south, Lieut.. Gen. Courtney
Hodges First American army
launched a heavy attack between
those two sectors east Of Aachen,
fighting it's way through thick woods
to draw up within ~ miles of the
great industrial center of Cologne.
Having smashed through the
upper reaches of the Germans
