was repatriated because when he
bailed out last October he broke his
leg and hurt his back, which didn't
heal properly =.
He said our boys are in prison
camp in Austria near the small
town of K; ems, near Vienna on the
Danube river.
I'VE asked about the food and he
said it was true they get what the
Germans got to eat, but that it was
old, Worm-eaten cabbage and po-
tatoes. But with the Red Cross par
GELS they get, it is not bad. He said
they have their community kitchen
and that the boys cook. Before he
left they gave him q. farewell party
and baked him a cake!
said the Germans did not mis-
treat them in any way and since
the Nazis know they are beaten,
they are treating them lot better.
Said they were left to themselves
mostly. Of course. he said, they are
guarded very closely but they do not
interfere with them.
1.-The boys play football baseball,
read a lot and cook. Just anything
to keep them busy. They are not
allowed to work. The cnly thing bad
about it is being cooped up behind
the barbed wire like a bunch of
chickens.
HE said the boys will be home
soon and for us not to worry about
them because they will be all right.
He said the boys kept up with the
news, too. They knew the day of in
vasion and everything. He said they
have sufficient clothing TO keep
warm. He couldn't say much about
the beds. just boards with maybe a
little straw. In sending packages
he said to send mostly food, nc
clothing. And whether they smoke
or not, use the tobacco labels ano
send cigarets. They can trade them
to the Germans for better food ano
stuff. Said the Germans would just
about sell Germany for good Gig
arets.

DECENTRALIZATION
(New York Times)

New York Tlmes)
Most of the discussions Of postwar
unemployment deal i'm terms of national
aggregates Too little attention has been
directed TO the fact that the demobliza-
tion of the war economy will fall with
varying impacts upon different regions
of the country. The current Cleveland
Trust Company Bulletin shows the num-
Der of war workers and members of the
armed forces who will be demoblized in
each of eighteen states. Ii Is estimated
that 5.400,000 war workers and $500 GOO
members of the armed forces will have
to be demobilized. About half of this to-
tai will be located in seven States New
York, California, Pennsylvania. Ohio IL
linois, Michigan and New Jersey. The
National Industrial Conference Board
has also made available some Illuminating
data on this point, based on recent stud
les.
In some states, such as California and
Michigan, the major problem will be un-
employed war workers. In other states
such as New York and Pennsylvania, the
major problem will be the reabsorptien
of returning service men. New manufac-
turing areas, such. as California, will
face problems different from those (Such
as Michigan) which have long been inn
portant manufacturing centers.
After the last war there were areas
in England which became known as dis
tressed. or "blighted," areas. When our
wartime boom is ended a similar problem
will arise here. Towns which have mush-
roOmed under the stimulus OF nearby
war factories, or the nearby location OF
cantonments. will face the painful pro-
cess of contraction and readJuStment.
While overall programs to reduce unem-
ployment may be useful in limiting the
magnitude of the problem, they Will not
solve the problems of particular areas
For such areas special measures Will be
required. Initially, it would be desirable
in connection with contract termination
if. in such areas, plants which cannot
be converted were to continue to pro-
duce war goods, while those in more fav-
orably located areas in terms OF employ
ment opportunities receive the first cut
backs in orders.
Retraining programs will be Just as
important for the reconversiOn to peace
as thev were for the conversion to war.
Large numbers of workers and veterans
will have to be guided to the industries
and localities offering more favorable op-
portunities. This will call for regional
exchange of information concerning such
opportunities. either through the United
States Employment Service or through
the state employment agencies when tnat
function is turned back to the states.
Unless we adopt programs designed to
meet the regional nature OF this PROP
lem. we too may be faced with number
OF "blighted" areas which will nave
depressing effect upon our whole ma
tional economy.
