SHIPMENTS TO TURKEY
STOPPED BY THE u. S.

Washington - The United
States has followed Great Bri-
tain's example in shutting off
lend-lease materials to Turkey
pending a resurvey of the latter's
attitude and willingness to aid the
allied war effort, particularly in
the Balkans.
British action was announced
several weeks ago and was the
more important of the two CO.
operative moves inasmuch as Bri-
tain was the heavier supplier of
war materials. The United
States, however, had been max
ing substantial contributions
which also have been halted.
Officials would not confirm that
the joint action has anything to do
with Turkeys present trade
agreement with Germany, which
automatically reneWs itself at the
end of this month unless it is de-
nounced by one of the two par
ties.

ARMED FORCES ARE
TO GET BALLOTS

Washington = The armed forces
set out to solve a new supply pro-

as bullets to those of the more than
100000 service folk who want
to vote.
President Roosevelt havin 6
permitted the compromise serv-
ice suffrage bill to become law
without his signature, army and
navy experts were in series Of
huddles yesterday to plan the dis
tribution of the ballots and ar
range for getting the votes back
to the home states.
Because the army has more men
and also because the rowing life
of sailor may interfere some
what with his vote-casting the
army likely will have the biggest
job.
It will be up to the army postal
service to get the ballots overseas
and bring them back. This also
involves the transportation corps,
whose worry is mail shipping
space.

London Observers Believe April
Is Month For Proposed Invasion

London - April may prove of
the greatest Observation-Disclosures
ly and politically-in the Allied
assault on the German fortress of
Europe, experienced London OBJ
servers pointed out this week.
This month should see the Red
Army in position for great Sum-
mer campaign along a front ex-
tending from the Danube to the
Baltic north of the Baltic,
if Finland fails to meet Russian
terms.
The month also will be a tense
one for those immobilized Ger
man divisions in western Europe,
which-but for the threat of An
glo-American invasion-might be
helping hold a dozen defensive
lines in the east.
About all that can be said OF
the invasion as the month begins
is that the Germans will know in
80 days at least whether it is 60
ing to come in April.
Whether it comes or not, the
pace of the build-up for the in
vasion will rise steadily.
April could bring a decision in
the air between the U. S. Air
Force and the German fighter
force it is out to destroy. Dur
ing the past six weeks the Luft-
waite has been beaten back from
it's forward defenses and forced
to remain grounded-except when
the Importance of the target de-
handed that battle be risked.
But if April brings a stretch OF
good weather the Luftwaffe could
be forced to fight more and more
often, and if it fought series OF
big battles, airmen are convinced
it could be cut to pieces.
I Political developments may
we'll put military events into the
shadow during the next 80 days,
however, because April seems
certain to decide whether Hitler,
through promises, threats or mill
tary power, can hold his ram
shackled coalition together.
Reports from Sweden indicate
Finland still is trying to make
peace with Russia. If Former
Finnish Premier j. K. Paasikivi
is in Russia, as reported, peace
probably is not far off. 1t is &C
copied that he would not go to
Moscow unless peace talks were
in their final stages.

EARM BOYS are apt to be husky
fellows-good pilots and sailors
and soldiers. Service stars hang in
the windows of most farm homes.
That complicates the problem of
producing more food, particularly
on dairy farms. Milk isn't reaped in
a single harvest. Cows need indi-
vidual care every morning, every
night, every day of the week. So
what has happened in the dairy
regions all over the land?
Men and women, little boys and
girls, are working harder. Thousands
of old-timers, who thought their
working days were over, have got
