Cigarettes To
Go UnratiOned

The shortage of cigarettes ex-
perienced throughout the country
reflects the bad distribution due to
war time conditions and the fact
that the armed forces are now
smoking a fourth of the country's
total production, but no rationing
of them is contemplated, the Of
flee of Price Administration states.
The War Food Administration re-
ports that the number of cigarettes
being manufactured for civilian
and soldier consumption is the
greatest in the history of the to-
bacco industry. Only negligible
amount Of tax-free cigarettes is
sent abroad for consumption other
than by our armed forces. Black
Fmarket operations and boarding
are also believed to be factors con-
'tributiug to the spotty distribution
and civilian shortages.

their chief rea5on for existence is
the part they play in the war effort,
a part which will not have to be
played when Germany quits. In any
case, it is freely predicted that
there will be strikes in these plants,
encouraged, aided and abetted by
the employers in the1hope that their
factories will be seized by the gov,
ernment. They may have no further
excuse for fumctioning but there is
a possibility that if the government
takes them over they can collect
something through damage b.suits
thereafter.
This creates very difficult prob
lem. AS you know, when the war
labor board hands down a decision
its function ends. There is no legal
means of enforcing this decision and
if it is not complied with, the only
recourse of the board is to pass the
buck to the White House. If an APP
peal from that source proves futile.
the government has to take over the
plant.
Now already the caution has been
sounded to the board to be very cir
cumspect hereafter in passing the
buck to the White House in such
cases. This is the reason: if the
White House accepts all of these
employer encouraged strikes and
the government takes them over
it may find itself owning boards of
useless businesses and facing years
of litigation.
If, on the other hand, the White
House refuses to act, the board
loses its prestige and since it has
no legal right of enforcement, it
loses its influence.
All of which caused many hard
boiled oldtimers to predict months
ago, that no matter who was elected
in November. the sands of the war
labor board were rapidly running
out.

man who has an engineering educa-
ton as foundation, and success
full industrial career as back
ground.
The booklet comprises only III
pages, succinctly summarized, writ
ten in simple, straightforward Ian
guage, like the title which is '"The
Control of Germany and Japan.
The authors are Harold G. Moulton,
a trained economist, head of the
Brookings institution, a non-parti-
san, scientific research organization,
and Louis Marlio, a French busi-
nessman, who has constructed half a
dozen industrial plants in Europe,
served on committees of the League
of Nations. T
This is book which everyone
ought to read. Briefly, the plan it
offers is military control (not COM
plete or permanent occupation) with
supplemental economic devices"
This would involve disarmament
of enemy countries, with mainte-
nance of substantial allied armed
forces at key points only as a last
iresAgts otherwise withdrawal of mill
starry forces as soon as possible and
the Use Of system Of detection,
tosisarfaiof violations OF conditions
and punitive measures if necessary
g 'The United States" say the
authors. lis faced with two plain
objectives: either to ljoin with a
group of nations in a collective pro-
gram for preventing German and
Japanese rearmament and in gen.
eral developing universal collec-
tive security system; or to rely on
an independent defense System ade-
quate to preserve its freedom.
And they conclude that 'only by
the first means can tits country
hope to maintain its national inde-
pendence, or to preserve its system
of free enterprise"
Since everybody, even the Vansit-
tartists, who represent the extreme
English supporters of a punitive
peace against Germany, agree that
the peace must be such that it win
work. best for the whole world, the
Moulton-Marlio, which holds strong
ly to this tenet, is interesting.
I have had many requests, con-
cerning the return of war prisoners
when Germany collapses. So hSs the
Red Cross. This is what it says:
"The military authorities, OF
course. are looking forward TO the
protection of the men as soon as
they can be reached in Germany;
but the Red Cross will assist the
military authorities in every way
possible. For this purpose. a spe.
cial representative of the American
Red Cross has been assigned to
work with the military authorities
in Europe and with other Red Cross
organizations there which are nc
less concerned about the welfare OF
their nationals.
''The stocks of standard prisoner
of war packages amount to over
5000, 0O0."
