Il Rise TO Remark"

have hoped for the good growing
seasons we have had in those five
years; well, hoped for perhaps, but
surely not expected. Not from his
tory nor from statistics: just from
quiet and patriotic mother nature.
Now where co we find ourselves?
Here are some estimates of present
SurpluseS. The figures are in mil
hons OF pounds. They do not include
food surpluses already in the hands
OF the army or the navy, nor do
they include foodstuffs in the ware
houses of regular food-trace chan
nels. Read them thougnttuIly:
Meat: frozen 40, canned 200, cur
ed 100; canned fish 100, canned
vegetables 100; dried fruits 100;
dried peas 400; dried beans 400;
rice $50; dried milk $50; evapor-
ated milk 300 cheese SO; sugar
200; dry COR frozem eggs 1870, and
FRESH eggs at least 40 million
dozen. These figures are conserva-
tive and there is little spoilage.
ARMY HAS ENOUGH
The army has enough food on
hand to feed the peoples in the lib
Grated countries for six months;
Lend-Lease will shortly stop buy
ing; other nations, where the war
has been fought will soon grow
their own foods again, as this COL
tlmn pointed out during the UNRRA
discussion, and by the way, has
anyone heard of UNRRA lately?

Warren CounseIs
Solemn V-Day

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 7. up
Governor Earl Warren Thursday
called upon public officials and civic
and church leaders in preparing for
"V-Dayn to "plan celebrations of
a patriotic and spiritual kind"
He pointed out that while COM
munities throughout California are
now making plans to celebrate the
day of the defeat and surrender of
Germany, victory will have been
achieved only after great sacrifices
of life and immeasurable human
suffering"
Programs should be planned 80
that the joy of our people will find
expression in ways befitting the
event." the governors proclamation
continued.
Imperial Valley press., 1944-09-07

The Army is doing that job, just
as this column said it should.
With U. S. food production a
third over preWar normal, what is
the answer? First, caution; second,
full employment to absorb food:
third, important for California, ev-
cry possible effort to develop the
use of agricultural commodities in
industry. 1 rise to remark that the
State of California must give this
subject the highest priority on its
schedule of postwar planning
Power alcohol, rubber, plastics,
freezing methods, dehydration, ey-
cry possible means of marketing
foodstuffs. These mean success or
failure for California farmers in
the years Immediately before US.

BY Congressman John Phillips

Few things show more clearly the
changing problems of war than the
food situation in this country. A
year ago this column, and the agri-
cultural leaders of congress and
the west and middle west, were per-
turbed about the problem of get
ting enough food.
Today everyone who was worried
then about insufficient food to meet
the demands of our troops and of
our Allies, including this writer, is
equally worried about the over
production of food, and about food
surpluSes already on hand.
Two things happen. The farmers
of America, with the energy and
the courage characteristic of farm
ers in all wars, pitched in, and in
spite of regulations, lack of under
standing, restrictions, and ignor-
ance in government agencies, fair
ly outdid themselves. Second, we
might as well admit that old Moth
er Nature, moving calmly along
without concern about OPA's, WPB's,
FEA'S, Lend-LeaSes, and what have
you, was definitely on the side of
the Allies.

Lawmaker Calls
For All Facts"
On Pearl Harbor

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. GUP)-
Republican Hugh D. Scott, Jr. CR.)
Pennsylvania, suggested in the
House Wednesday that before the
Japanese attacks on Pearl Harbor,
the administration weakened Paci-
fic defenses against the advice of
naval authorities.
Let the people know" he said,
who was to blame for Pearl Har-
Dor. No good can come from further
concealment of the facts"
Scott asked whether the Pacific
fleet was kept at Pearl Harbor in
response to requests of Hawaiian
businessmen; whether Harry Hop
klns, as member of the munitions
assignment board, had transferred
navy planes needed in the Pacific
to Great Britain in 1941; whether
Rear Admiral Husband E. Kimmel,
then commander in chief of the U.
S. Pacific fleet had protested the
shifting of destroyers to the Allan
tic; and whether Kimmel had been

diplomatic relations on the eve of

COMPLAINTS REGISTERED

About the beginning of 1941, nu-
merous complaints were forwarded
TO high administration sources by
merchants, business interests, and
others in the Hawaiian islands that
the fleet was being kept out of
Pearl Harbor and at sea too much,"
Scott said.
Did not Admiral James G.. Rich
ardson, then commander in chief.
Pacific fleet :. . demure to the sug-
geStion ?" Scott continued.
Scott asked if Richardson was
summoned to the White House and
told that the fleet must be at Pearl
Haroor more often and if he had
not said he would be compelled to
use his best judgment unless the
President removed him.
Noting that Kimmel thereafter
replaced Richardson, he asked if
Kimmel had not complied with the
alleged orders.
Did not Admiral Kimmel," Scott
then asked, continually protest the
stripping OF the Pacific fleet and
particularly point out the danger
inherent in the transfer of DESTROY
ers to the Atlantic, which in Kim
mels opinion were essential to the
Pacific fleet set-up?"
U. S. ULTIMATUM
Scott quoted the state department
volume peace and war" to the effect
that the United States had given
Japan an ultimatum on November
26, l94l, to withdraw from China
and Indo-China.
Would not Admiral Kimmel tes-
tify that he had no knowledge
whatever of the nature of the ulti-
matum to Japan of November 26?"
Scott asked.
Scott also asked if Australia had
not notified Washington December
6, 194l, that the japanese fleet was
Steaming toward Pearl Harbor.
Did not our government trans
NIT the information to naval and
military authorities at Pearl Har-
Dor at or about $50 am. on Decem-
Der 7 (HaWaiian time) by COM
mercial CABLE Scott asked, land
was not the message received sev-
en- hours after the attack?"

DIES GUYS LAST
DITCH STAND

Congressman Martin Dies of
Texas is really having nothing
to do with this last great squirt
of activity by his committee in
trying to show connection be-
tween the Communists and the
c. l. O. Political Action Commit
tee. Dies isn't even in Washing
ton.
All the work is being done by
the two committee investigators,
Robert E. Stripping and DR.. j. B.
Matthews, who will apparently
be out of jobs when the Dies
Committee as such ceases to ex-
list at the end of the present ses-
sion of Congress.
The final Stripping Matthews
effort, attempting to show that
III members of the National
Citizens Political Action Com
mittee were tied up with Com
munist front organizations, was
apparently intended to bow the
Dies Committee out of the cleo
ton in a blaze of glory, and to
show that the committee should
be continued In the next session
of Congress.
The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1944-10-20

He won this same title in 1896
and 1888. Becker is one of the
original Life Masters of the
American tract Bridge
League. In his bidding and play,
he is old Stonewall Jackson
himself. l like his remark that
If you make a careless play or
pull the wrong card, it is not
carelessnesS, but a definite
weakness in your game. He be-
lieves that sound bidding and
play will win in the long run.
In todays hand, Becker
(South) won the opening lead
with the queen of diamonds,
then laid down a low trump. On
the bidding he deduced that
East held four cards of every
suit except trumps. Believing
that the king of hearts was a
possible singleton, Becker went
up with dummy's ace and drop
ped the king. Two more rounds
of trumps took care of that stu
alton, and now Becker, who had
made his last bid as "payin>
sacrifice" saw a chance TO make
his contract. He led a club and
finessed the jack, East winning.
A club was returned and dunn
my won. East refused TO cover
the ten of diamonds. Becker
then ruffed club and cashed
his trumps. A spade lead forced
East to win, and the diamond
return gave Becker the trick he
needed for his contract.
