FOOD PRODUCTIONS:
Bun1per HarUests

Even as the U. S. department Of
agriculture forecast bumper grain
crops for 1914, the War Food adj
ministration announced that it's 1945
food production program would re-
main substantially the same assthis
years.
Boosting It's estimates of corn pro-
duction $1,000, 900 bushels, the USDA
predicted a record 1914 crop Of g.
258, 900, 600 bushels, while standing
pat on its previous forecast of an
all-time wheat harvest of 1,108, 000,-
600 bushels. Coupled with a record
sorghum crop Of 160,000,000 BUSH
els, overall grain production, in
GLIDING oats, barley and rye, was
set at top of 57,50O,000 tons.
In addition, bumper crops were
forecast for cotton, tobacco, pota-
toes, sweet potatoes, soybeans,
apples, peaches, pears and pecans.
Alterations in the WAS 1945 food
program call for an increase in pig,
cattle and milk production, but Is
per cent decrease in egg output
closer, to the 1935-'39 average.

PACIFIC:
Bloody Science

Bloody business, war is also a sci
ence, and as U. S. troops plodded
forward on Leyte island in the
Philippines, Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur's strategy unfolded.
With the enemy's main forces
compressed on the northwest cor
ner of Leyte, General MacArthur's
tactics pointed to their humiliation
by the priced military maneuver of
engaging them from the front while
sending other units to cut them off
in the rear.
Thus did the Oath division move
to press the enemy frontally, while
the LIST cavalry and 96th divisions
pierced the mountain ranges to the
southeast in drive to entrap the
Japanese from the rear.
Meanwhile, U. S. airmen kept a
close eye on the important port Of
Ormoc, through which the Japanese
had previously sent reinforcements
to help their troops holding out
against the American advance.
Manila Bay also came under the
bombsights of U. S. airmen, with
carrier-based craft hitting at this
important nerve center Of enemy
shipping for the entire Philippine
area. In one strike alone, II Jap
cargo vessels and oilers went to the
bottom.

WAR WOUNDS:
Greater Recovery

Because Of better organized and
equipped medical service, sulfa
drugs, penicillin, plasma and whole
blood available for use in forward
areas, less than per cent Of Ameri-
cans wounded in this war die as
compared with z per cent in the first
world conflict.
The full picture Of medical adj
vance, however, is best told in
the fact that from so to go per
cent of the soldiers wounded in
the present war are incapaci-
tated by heavy guns, artillery or
mOrtars, which infiict more seri-
Gus injury, compared with only
about 20 per cent in 1917-'1S.
Comparisons between the two
world wars show 80 per cent Of the
wounded now returning to duty as
against 70 per cent, and number of
infections kept down to 10 per cent
as against the old figure of so per
cent.

EUROPE:
Big Push

Using their superior forces to pre-
vent the Germans from building up
strength for next year, the Allies
launched an about drive against the
enemy's west wall, moving forward
toward the vital industrial Ruhr and
Rhineland despite the early winter
weather.
Althou Oh they had anticipated a
general offensive, the Germans con-
coded tie Allies superiority, stat
ing that until their Wanted new
weapons could be delivered to the
front, their troops would have to
rely on their spirit to stay in the
fight.
AS the Allied attack got underway,
the British End army striking in
southeastern Holland stood only 81
miles from Duisberg; the U. S. 9th
hitting to the Tommies' south was
81 miles from Dusseldorf; the U. S.
LIST swinging below Aachen was %
miles from Cologne; the U. S. 3rd
working past Metz was 1874 miles

Bavaria.

for its coal and chemical industry.
In slashing forward, u. S. forces
ringed the formidable fortress city
of Metz, which the Germans largely
evacuated when American pressure
threatened to overwhelm in Nazis'
positions there.
In writing off Metz, the Germans
loudly broadcast that the bastion
had largely served its purpose of

them the necessary time to build up

POLITICAL ACTION:
CIO Success

With 10 congressional members
elected with the support Of the poll
teal action committee, the CLIO de-
clared that the victory demonstrated
the effectiveness Of labor's first big
organized effort in a campaign.
Whether the PAC would be
continued was considered at the
CLIO convention in Chicago, ILL.,,
where union leaders called for
support of their fight for higher
wages and demands for indus
trial, labor and government
planning for provision of 6O,O00.-
900 postwar jobs.
Declaring that the election of the
10 candidates backed by it assured
the presence of an improved con-
gress'' for the next session, the CLIO
said that its PAC proved to be the
decisive factor because it did the
organized, door-to-door work that
brings success in a campaign"
The 10 men and women backed
by the PAC comprise So repre-
sentatives and IA senators, coming
from % states in every section Of
the country.

LAND REFORM:
Split Polish Estates

Carrying out its policy Of agricul-
tural reform, the Moscow sponsored
Polish committee of national liberia
ton divided up 5000 acres of land
owned by Count Alfred Potocki
among 1850 families.
At the same time, the liberation
committee announced that 1t had
taken over the Potocki family's Lam
cut castle, which would be converted
into museum. All together, Count
Alfred Potocki, prominent indus
trialist said to have fed to Vienna
with the Germans, owns $4,000
acres.
In dividing up the Counts estates,
the liberation committee was follow
ing it's avowed policy of redistribut-
ing lands operated by great FAM
lies, with the owners dominating the
entire social structure within their
districts.
