TALLY dismantled for transfer from
one location to another, and can
be quickly set up to provide living
quarters that are better for family
use than a trailer, agency officials
said.
The unit costs approximately
$975, or about half the cost of q
permanent unit similar to those
now being constructed in Govern
ment projects. 1t is a plywood two
room house consisting of kitchen
and bedroom.
The kitchen is provided with run
ming water from built-in tank and
also contains a kerosine range, an
ice box and a couch for extra bed
facilities. The bedroom is fitted with
two studio couches.

1t was explained that this would be
minimum need in the hrst fiele
operations in liberated areas.
A White House statement an
nouncing the request for funds said
that the date when UNRRA relief
operations in liberated areas will be-
gin cannot be determined in ad-
vance of impending military devel-
opments." 1t added that the begin
ming of fuller relief operations may
be accompanied by decline in mill
tary and lease-lend requirements,
which would make war-purpose ma
terials available for UNRRA's use,
and that every effort should be
made at such time to utilize avail
able stocks of goods held by any
Government agency.

President Roosevelt asked Con-
gress today for total of $500, 200, 600
in funds and supplies to launch this
country's participation In the work
Of the United Nations Relief and
Rehabilitation Administration.
Congress has authorized a total
contribution of ST ,350, 900 900 for this
undertaking, but has made no ap-
preparation.
The Presidents request was broken
down into two categories. He asked
for $3.50 ,000, 900 with the explanation
that this would be needed by
UNRRA In the period before 1t be-
gins operations in liberated areas to
finance advance purchases of sup
plies and to provide for necessary
services. This figure, the President
explained. also would cover the
United States share Of administra-
tive expenses for the first year of
UNRRA's operation, which would
amount, he said, to 1900, 900.
In addition. the President au-
thorized the transfer Of supplies,
services and funds available under
lease-lend amounting to $3.50 900. 900.

the people always has been resistant
to pressure from outside their own
community. There was a revolt
against stamped paper"-heavy
taxes-in 1875, and other incidents
have occurred as recently as a
decade ago. Deep religious faith,
loyalty to responsible authority and
conservative republicanism in poll

Brittany

Brittany, now in process of being
liberated by the Americans under
Lieutenant General Omar N. Bradley,
will be prize well worth taking
both for its strategic value and it's
historic significance in relation to
the rest of France. A peninsula be-
tween the English Channel and the
Bay of Biscay, it has an area of
approximately eighteen thousand six
hundred square miles. The coasts
are rugged and high, and the in
terror consists of two plateaus re-
sembling in their general appearance
the moors of Southwest Britain, with
which they may have been related
in very ancient times.
When the territory is occupied
completely, it will be useful espe-
cially for the ports of Saint Malo
on the north, Brest on the west and
Saint Nazaire on the south. A net
work of railroads connects those
vital gateways with Morlaix, Pontivy,
Vannes, Ploermel, Loudeac, Dinan
and, particularly Rennes. The line
from the last-named town leads
through lie Mans and Chartres to
Paris. Fine motor highways formerly
were available. but they probably
have been damaged by the retreating
Germans. The native Bretons, how
ever, are skilled laborers in stone,

DR.. Hirsch predicted an abundance of
food. That has come true. His predic-
tions OF huge production in civilian
consumers goods also has proved true.
-
In addition to the Hirsch and Shea
articles, the booklet reprints a spirited
exchange of views between DR.. Hirsch
and John w. Scoville of the Chrysler
Corp. Mr.. Scoville objects to the Hirsch
thesis by pointing out that War Bonds
are not savings, that they represent
great increase in paper money, that
largeoproduction will follow a brisk de-
mands for goods and labor and that
higher prices apd higher wages will be
the result. DR.. Hirsch answers that
the bonds are savings, If the people
who hold them feel that they are and
treat them as such. It is fair assump-
ton, he says, that those who hold them
will be Just as concerned in keeping
them for future security, as in convert
ing them into goods Immediately after
the war :, e1r7. s..
DR.. Hirsch is not optimistic about a
large increase in foreign trade after the
war. He regards the promise of full
employment in private industry as an
illusion. He believes that very consid-
erable unemployment, which govern
mental spending can only partially al
leviate, is inevitable.
Since the deterioration of German
resistance indicates the sudden and not
too-distant end Of the war in Europe,
the day OF reckoning in domestic eco
nomics Is getting close. In anticipation
OF what we shall face, views of these
two practical and experienced observers
deserve wide attention and study. If
their predictions Of the year ahead
should prove to be as sound as their
predictions of year ago, they will
indeed be major prophets

gressively increased as the capacity of
the route is improved, this will make a
considerable difference to the American
and Chinese Air Forces in China-in
particular 1t will greatly increase the
operating capacity of Gen. Chennault's
18th Air Force in supporting Chinese
ground troops and harassing Japanese
communications, and of the big bombers
OF the 10th Air Force In their attacks
against the vital centers of Japan itself,
1t is to be noted that these B-2e at
tacks SO far have been spaced about
three weeks apart. This suggests that
1t takes about that long for the deliv-
cries of gasoline, oil and bombs by air
transport to accumulate to a SUFFICIENT
amount for an attack. If the existing
air transport facilities could be aug
mented by truck deliveries and further
augmented by the shortening of the air
haul as new transport bases are estab-
llshed in North Burma itself, obviously
we could do great deal better In the
matter OF delivering bombs on jap
anese industrial ceKters. And, obviously.
also, such increased deliveries of fuel
and bombs would enable Gen. Chen.
naults flyers to do q great deal more
to help the Chinese protect their in
ternal communications and the air
bases on which the whole structure of
American Chinese air power depends
This is Of vital importance, for the
events Of the past few weeks have made
1t clear that superiority in the air Cat
least qualitative superiority is the mar
gin of power by which the Chinese are
able to resist the efforts of the jap
anese Army to cut China in two The
Japanese are better equipped, supported
py artillery and some armor, and can
usually gain initial successes when they
make an effort: But as their commune
cations become extended, they are in
creasingly vulnerable to air operations.
so that Gen. Chennaults men are able
to apply constant brake which has
been effective indeed.
Remembering that some day the de-
cislve battles for East Asia may have
to be fought out In South China and
the valley Of the Yangtze, It is of great
importance to the Allied cause that
when the time comes for decisive ac-
ton there, that battlefield should be
found IN . condition as favorable to
us as possible. Hence every ounce of
help that We can get through to the
Chinese now Is most valuable, to say
nothing Of the possibility of increasing
our direct efforts against Japan's war
potential as q whole
