Crack in Nazi Econom,
|WiII Lead 10 Defeat
By As, FEA Says
BY the Associated Press

Germany'S war economy has SO
deteriorated under combined Allied
attacks that she faces substantial
certainty Of defeat in 1945 If not In
1914" the Foreign Economic Admin
istration declares in an analysts of
enemy war economy.
Prepared by William T. Stone
| director Of FEA's special areas
branch, the report says the Ger
mans will be in a nearly hopeless
position by the end OF this year with
prospective expenditure of war ma
teriel exceeding their rate of pro-
duction
| Full-scale Allied bomber offen-
sives, ground attacks and blockade
actions have shorn the Nazis of war
materiel to the extent that they
now have, in use and in reserve
only the equivalent of less than one
years production, the report as
serted.
Bombing Halts Arms Spurt.
The analysis credits the ever-in-
creasing Allied bomber offensive
with preventing a steep rise in Ger
man war production during l943.
The enemy did succeed in effecting
a moderate" increase, the report
said, but except for the Allied aerial
attacks the boost would have been
nearly Is per cent over l942.
German gains in l943 aircraft
production now have been more
than Cancelled" it was added.
Thanks should go chiefly to Rus
sia, the report says, for forcing the
Germans to consume finished war
supplies almost equaling total Ger
man production for the three years
during which the two nations have
been at war
On Hand-to- Mouth Basis.
German raw materials supplies
for war are on "a bare hand to
mouth basis" the report said
making the Allies blockade policy
strategic weapon promising i'm
mediate and substantial effects. The
report cites deprival of Germany
of chrome from Turkey. tungsten
from Spain and Portgual, and re-
capture of manganese mines in Rus
sia and says the Russian drive on
Finland is now threatening German
sources of nickel, cobalt and molyb-
denum.
Until now, the analysis said, Nazi
production has maintained the
equipment and supply of Germany s
armed forces at level at least equal
to that of le41. but "it will in all
probability wholly fail to maintain
that position from now on"
Despite Allied inroads, Germany
war machine in absolute terms to-
day is as formidable as ever. the
analysis said, because German
strength has only been held down.
not yet cut down or beaten. Unit
this year, however, Germany has
fought always with margins fol
greater exertions, if necessary. To.
day all margins are gone.

the past several months. he re-
ported, the call has been about half
the figure for peak months.
Although the draft regulations
liberalizing the deferment policy for
men 80 years old and over has been
interpreted in some States as max
ing deferments easier also for the
men in the 26-29 age group, the
District will be forced to be more
strict on the men in the 26-29 age
bracket in order to meet calls, Mr..
Leahy said.
The Districts average of men in
Quoted or founo unfit far exceeds
the estimated national average, it
was said. Nearly IA per cent of all
District draft-age registrants either
have been drafted or become AIS.
The estimated national average is
66 per cent.
Some District boards have gone
through more than 80 per cent of
their registrants and all but one Dis
trict board exceeds the national
average.
More than 1000 District men
have been drafted. as compared
with 1851 in the World War. In
cluding men who have enlisted or
been commissioned from the Dis
trict, the total for this war ap-
proaches 10000 in he armed forces.
In addition to these men, who
were District residents at the be-
ginning of the draft, more than
100,0 men working in the District.
but registered in other areas, have
been indicted through the transfer
board.
With so per cent of it's men al
ready in the armed forces and "a
per cent of the remaining classified
4-F, the pool of men left to fill
future calls includes a large number
deferred by law or in such critical
civilian jobs that they cannot be
spared.
Oen board alone has more than
l 500 men classed as ministers.
Members of Congress and other
elected officials form another pool
of men who cannot be tapped for
service. Deferments for hardship
reasons have been given so sparingly
here that few of those placed in
Sd as hardship cases probably can
be reclassified.
In addition, number of men with
occupational deferments work at the
Navy Yard or are key men IN other
critical war work here. Many of
these cannot be taken without
threatening war production. The
relatively small number of men un-
der rs with occupational defer
ments have been so carefully
screened that the future supply Of
men from this source Is neglible.

Summer High School
Registration Is Heavy

Heavy registration of boys trying
to finish high school before induc-
tlon and of newcomers to Washing
ton has kept the public summer
school enrolment at a higher level
than anticipated, Boise Bristor
school statistician, said today.
The enrolment, now approx
mately 1000. is only 500 less than il
was at the end of the season last
year and only about 1900 less than
in the normal year of 1887. School
officials had expressed an opinion
that the record number of students
working and the number of boys in
military service might cut summer
school enrolment drastically this
year.
Besides the l7-year-old boys and
the newcomers, the enrolment also
has been swelled by an unusual
number of private and parochial
school students. Mr.. Bristor said.
While a few of these students al
ways have registered individually in
public summer schools. several of
the schools this year arranged for
groups Of their students to continue
their education without a break
during the summer.
