FURLOUCH:
For Pacific Vets

If the facilities and battle condi-
tons allow, an increasing number of
veterans with two years or more
service in the Pacific area will be
granted furloughs, Com. Gen. Mil
lard F. Harmon declared.
Already a program of replacing
vets with fresh troops has been mi
tiated, General Harmon said, but on
limited scale. Availability of ship
ping and need for troops for the in
creasing tempo of the Pacific war
fare will determine the extent of the
furlough program, General Harmon
explained.
ANYONE in a responsible position
in the army, from General Marshall
down, appreciates the desirability of
rotating men in the combat zones"
General Harmon said. But they
also appreciate the need for winning
the war, and you cannot allow rota-
ton of personnel to interfere unduly
with that accomplishment"

PACIFIC:
Won't Fight

Again the boastful Japanese fleet
refused to come out and fight, and
following the heaviest naval bonn
bardment in history which left shore
defenses in smoking tatters, U. S.
forces overran the Marshall islands
in mid-Paciic.
One of the enemy's last outer de-
fensive rims of their main holdings
in the Philippine area, the Mar
shalls, were virtually surrendered by
the enemy, without the bitter, last
ditch fight expected. When marines
swarmed ashore after a murderous
barrage of U. S. naval guns, they
met only scattered pillbox opposi-
ton, the enemy's own big artillery
pieces have been smashed.
Invasion Of the Marshalls gave
the U. S. springboard for the next
step in the march to Tokyo, now
1000 miles off, while reports indi-
Gated that the Japs were massing
planes all through the Philippine
and homeland area to meet the push
of the greatest naval armada in his
tory, when that day comes.

ITALY:
Bitterest Fighting

Bitterest battle of the bitter Ital-
ian campaign was being fought
around the Nazis' mountain strong
hold of Casino, with valiant U. S.
doughboys working their way into
the town behind the rumbling roar
of their tanks, while German sui
eide squads sniped from battered
buildings now in rubble.
Forty miles to the north, the enc
my rushed in reinforcements to
counter the Fifth army operating
from its beachhead below Rome,
with parachutists, antiaircraft gun
ners, tankmen and reconnaissance
units formed into regular units to
fight off the U. S. and British troops
moving on the Germans supply
roads under the heavy fire.
Although Casino itself lay heaped
in ruins, the enemy chung stubbornly
to dominating heights around the
town, and dug firmly into strong
web of concrete machine-gun and
mortar pits on the level ground. AS
doughboys picked their way through
the defensive maze, they closed on
the main highway leading northward
to Rome, over which the enemy was
supplying his troops.

SOLDIER VOTING:
Red.HOt Issue

Joining with the almost solid Re-
publican bloc, southern representa-
tives in the nations Capitol held
their ground for state control of
soldier voting in opposition to the
administrations plan for federal su-
pervision of elections for the offices
of President, senator and congress-
man by means of a blank ballot on
which servicemen would write in
either the names of their choices
or just mark the party they favored.
A compromise between the senate
and house doomed, with the senate
favoring a bill which would allow
use of the federal ballot for soldiers
whose states failed to provide for
absentee voting by July l, and the
house lined up for a measure direct
ing the distribution of applications
for ballots among servicemen and
prompt provision of such ballots by
states if the application is accepted.

MORE MONEY!:
Circulation UD

Tax evasion by people with large
incomes, and activities of "black
market" operators are at least part
ly responsible for the huge rise in
money in circulation, a current sur
vey has revealed. At the present,
currency in circulation amounts to
20 billion dollars, or $3.50 per capita.
Demand for $1,000 bills has more
than doubled since the war started.
There were 100000 of these floating
in l941 and there are some 100000
now. One hundred dollar bills are
most in demand, their use rising
from million to 81 million since
Pearl Harbor.
"Black market" dealers in furni-
ture, jewelry and the like, buy and
sell on strictly cash basis, keeping
no accounts on which taxes might
be levied, the survey explained. SINH
lar ways of tax evasion are possible
in other transactions, all requiring
large amounts of paper money.

differences of opinion but Hambidge
puts it this way:
"Pa wants a certain kind of en-
CINE. Ma has her eye on the up
holstery. Sis prefers a certain body
color. Junior-he's thinking about
the gadgets on the instrument panel.
But the main thing is-they all want
a car. They end up by getting one
that isn't quite what anybody ex-
pected-but one that's durable, and
a good buy, and gets them where
they want to 60.
I'm other words, they compromise.
Each one gives up his own pet ideas
to get car that will be serviceable
for the whole family.
"And that's what will happen"
says Hambidge, with the Food and
Agriculture organization. The In
term commission has been working
out constitutional broad plan of
operation, showing what the organ
ization will do and how it will do it,
and general budget, so we'll know
what the work will cost. Along about
March, probably, they will have
these plans ready to submit formally
to the 40-odd governments. If there's
quick approval - the organization
should be set up and ready to 60
not too long after that"
Two things FAC is aiming at: ex-
banded production within the coun-
tries involved, and increased trade
between the countries involved.
Some countries, for instance, just
can't produce enough of the right
kinds of foods to feed their people
properly; others can produce GER
tain foods-like wheat, for instance
only at very great cost.
The FAC, its members say, aims
to get away from the old isolationist
idea that prevailed almost every
where before the WARMTH every
country trying to meet all its own
needs which ended up with smash
ing big depression and whopping
big war. What the FAC can do to
prevent such world catastrophes,
according to Hambidge, remains to.

FEED:
See Relief

Because of a decline in require
ments of concentrates when pas
lures are opened and 16 per cent
drop in the 1914 spring pig crop,
the nations tight feed supply should
be relieved soon, the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics said.
However, overall prospects for the
year are not so rosy, even though
the geographical distribution of sup
plies has been improved by an in
crease in the corn price ceiling and
the set-aside ALLEGATION for high pro-
tein feeds.
BAE noted that with prices for lay
ing mash this spring up IL to Is per
cent over last year, the egg-feed
price ratio will be less favorable,
since returns on eggs are not likely
to increase. Total slaughter of
chickens for 1914 should approx
mate the 1913 record of 3 billion
800 million pounds, despite prob
able decrease in the marketing of
young chickens.

When the President introduced his
second bill of rights into his State

and skillfully linked the past and
future with it, he set up old argu-
ments among the elite of Washing
tons cracker-barrel set.
When "Old DR.. New DeaI' was
set aside as the guardian of Amer
lean welfare, some folks hereabouts
insisted that he had plans for con-
siderably extending his practice lat
er-that his friend, Franklin D., was
planning on world New Deal"
Like all smoke, it signalizes fire
somewhere.
There is no doubt that even though
the realistic Mr.. Churchill and the
realistic Mr.. Stain didn't see eye to
eye on everything as they looked at
each other across the green table at
Teheran, we have reason to believe
that both are pretty well sold on
what they each think can be done
in the way of a little international

that business man would use on it.
Believe it or not, the men who are
figuring out free lunches and the
production programs to make them
unnecessary hereafter are doing it
scientifically, and even if you don't
like the word, on "businesslike"
basis.
Little has been said of this per-
manent food organization of the
United Nations. You hear about
UNRRA, which is supposed to take
care of what might be called "stra-
tegic feeding"-that is, taking care
of the peoples in countries the Allies
reoccupy (hungry men and women
are no help to anyone). The motive
is less altruistic than military.
But you may not have heard of
the work of the FAO-that's an en-
tirely unofficial abbreviation of the
Food and Agriculture organization
which Cove Hambidge of the agri-
culture administration of the de-
partment of agriculture made up
himself. He was appointed one Of
the secretaries of the commission
appointed at the conference in Hot
Springs last May.

to keep his hand in in case he
contemplates, as the cracker-barrel-
ers suggest, further personal activ-
ity later, or merely wants to keep
Americans thinking about all these
things, come the ides of November.
About Relief
No matter how you look at it Gun
less you are 100 per cent "stew-in-
their-own-juicer") you have a sort
of vague feeling that we ought to do
what we can to help out people who
are starving or freezing no matter
where they are. I say that ad-
visably and for proof turn to the
record.
One of the earliest memories of
my childhood is tagging up Main
Street on my mothers hand and see
ing dishpan in front of the "Silver
Dollar" mot the Originally filled with
dollar bills. My mother dropped in
quarter and hurried past the sin
lister abode. Passersby tossed in
their currency for the sufferers of
some Chinese famine or Italian
earthquake (perhaps Pompeii and
Herculaneum, I don't recalD.
America is always willing to go
down deep in its pockets for "relief."
But it doesn't seem to like it if gov
eminent runs the show. Nobody on
Main Street knew how much of the
dishpan's contents reached the quak-
ing Italians or what-have-you and
how much never got past the "Silver
Dollars" back room, but nobody
cared.
On the other hand, even when the
money is triple-checked by the gov
eminent and investigated by the
opposition, if it is taken out of the
general kitty, Americans don't like
it. That's playing Santa Claus. When
they can shell out individually, it's
all right-which may be perfectly
logical from a psychological view
point.
However this may be, your gov
eminent is going right ahead and
preparing program for taking out
the wrinkles and concealing the ribs
of starving world just the same
it is also doing something more,
helping the starvers raise more of
their own food.

For the first time since 1896, the
New York Stock Exchange showed

In addition, it was revealed that
the Stock Exchange collected $685.
600 in initiation fees, which was not
added to profit but rather was trans
ferred to the capital account. Last
year, S296,000 was collected in such
fees.
Rejecting the increased invest
ment interest as result of the war
boom, 1912, 1000 shares of stock
were traded in 1913, compared with
125, 685, 900 shares in 1912. Daily
trading averaged approximately
100000 shares, against $1,000
throughout 1912. The brisk action
has been maintained this year.

On Rise

During the first half of the 1914

Az billion dollars for the same

with about 61a billion dollars for

Because of the current pay-as-you-

Driving on the heels Of retreating
German troops, the Reds crossed
into Estonia on the Baltic battle
front, while farther to the south, 9TH
er Russ forces continued their ham,
mering along the prewar Polish bor-
der.
By smashing toward the Baltic at
one end of the 250-mle northern
front, and pressing their attacks
along the prewar Polish border at
the other, the Reds threatened a
breakthrough that would trap the
whole German army in this sector.
Stiffest German resistance was
being met near the prewar Polish
border, although the Nazis were
fighting strong rear-guard action
IN the Baltic. AS a result of the
Baltic drive, the Reds cleared the
Nazis from below Leningrad, gain
ing control of the extensive network
of railroads in the vicinity.
