with the delicate balances of a
wartime economy; that it would
be time for change only when
the end of wartime pressures is
clearly in sight. Production cut

The officials views coincide
with impressions which some la
Dor leaders got from President
Roosevelt in a recent confer

A definite ad ministration
statement of this nature before
the election is not considered
likely, but it is believed that
most labor leaders are now
aware OF the attitude of Mr..
Roosevelt and his advisers.
The labor chiefs who seek to
break the formula obtained no
comfort from a recent speech of
James F. Byrnes, war mobiliza-
ton director.
FLAT PROMISE
According TO authoritative in
formation, sterilization director
Fred M. Vinson remarked in
conversation recently, with a
thump of his own chest, that
Ion my honor" the Little Steel
Formula would not be broken.
The WLB report will go to
the President via Vinson, so
there is no telling when the pa
pers actually will reach the
Presidents desk. The Board has
not completed the report and
there is possibility it may
spend two weeks debating it.
Labor members dissented &C
idly from the decision taken by
a combination of public and in
duStry members. This decision
said, in effect, that the Board
would report what had happen
ed to wages and prices but it
was not sufficiently informed to
say what could be done about
wages without further affecting
prices.
Labor members said they
could only conclude that the
Board deems that no change in
the Little Steel Formula should
be recommended" They said
they were not angry, but disap-
pointed, and intended to make
their own recommendations to
the President. This they have
already done personally.
The Board left the door open
for possible modification of the
secondary phases of the Wage

but now, late in the afternoon, it
is raining again, slowly and
coldly.
In the crown Of hills that en-
circles this lost and tomblike
city the trees are dark and glls-
tening. They are trees turning
beautifully brown and remind
ing you Of every pleasant picnic
spot you ever knew.
But just below in the center Of
Aachen is a scene like some
imaginative painting Of the last
Judgment. Smoke boils and
shifts but never lifts from the
center of the city and fires CLEAN
only fitfully and thinly through
this almost impenetrable cover.
SPIRE VISIBLE
The spire of Aachen cathedral
is still standing, unhlt, but moth
ing Of the rest can be seen below
its roof.
German prisoners say civil
ians are slipping out of their
subterranean hideouts at night
and footing such stores as are
still standing.
If Aachen fell TO the First
Army at this moment, the Yanks
would get a mere skeleton of a
city, for most of the buildings
still upright are no more than
Quilted walls.
In the German phrase -
"Aachen kaput!" (Aachen fin
ished).

is impossible also for one SAM

UP TO COMMANDERS
The present destruction OF
Aachen by the American First
Army following the refusal of
the German commander to sur
render to spare the town is a
matter Of field tactics, rather
than general American policy
toward German cities, he said.
Field commanders, ii was made
clear, can use their own meth
DDS as long as they observe the
rules Of war.
While the General regards
sudden German collapse as al
ways a possibility, he sees no
reason to rely on its coming at
any given time. The threat of
the Red Army in the east and
the Allied army on German soil
in the west can have no effect
on the leaders who face the loss
of everything, once they admit
defeat. in Eisenhower's opinion.
NO FRATERNIZING
The General appeared in eX-
ccllent health.
Eisenhower said the Allied
armies were entering Germany
as conquerors and would treat
the Germans justly.
In Germany, there will be
no determination" the COM
mander said, I'VE go in as con-
querors. We shall treat them
Justly in conformity with civil
Lied standards as eXemplified
by our governments. We will
have nothing else to do with
them except in necessary Off
cial relationships"

Forecast for the Air Age
(New York Times

(New York Times
 In this era of almost incredible development of aircraft the prediction of yesterday becomes the reality of today with astonshingly frequency In the annual Wright Brothers Lecture delivered at Wash ington by William Scott Farren director of the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough, members of
 the Institute of the Aeronautca Sciences urged to give their attention to the problems which will soon arise from ordinary cruising speeds of than 400 miles hour Now word from England that scale model has been built and flown of an eght-engned airliner designed by F. c. Miles which will have a cruising speed of better than 400 miles an hour in still air and carry on the power of eight engines fifty passengers and for range of 3,450 miles
 In the light of developments such as this and of our extremely high performance developments in combat arplanes, the forecast of the air age of 1853 by Ralph Damon in the current Journal of the So- cety of Automotive Engineers has special significance MT. Damon who drafted from American Airlines to which be has now returned vice president and general manager, in order to get production rolling at Republic Aviation where the Thunderbolt fighter was matched, is no dreamer of nebulous dreams. On the contrary he has behind him long record of per- formance manufacturer and operator of aircraft.
 Looking ahead ten years, MT. Damon contends that to calculate the future the basis of the past is to see, by the end of the decade which enter, supercharged flying wings rocketpropelled and cling possibly faster than sound He believes too that commercial transport planes will cruise at better than 400 miles an hour and that high altitude craft will exceed modern pursuit planes in speed. For the civilian airplane, which he thinks will be quite as popular as today's motor boats, he considers he- copters, fixed-wing types or even mixture of the two to offer the most promising possibilities Air ports, open to every nations planes become industrial ceners with air transportation supplement- ing railways, highways and waterways MT. Damon regards politics the only barrier to development within the decade of true global air transportation. From such source, it is stimulating prediction
