POSTWAR GERMANY:
Allied Plans

With Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau's proposal for stripping
Germany Of all of its manufactures
and reducing the country to an agri-
cultural basis rejected, Allied post
war plans looked forward to the
maintenance of the Reich's industrial
machine under close supervision.
Challenging Morgenthau's posi-
ton, Secretary of State Hull and
Secretary of War Stimson declared
that not only did Germany turn out
certain essential industrial products
for the rest of Europe, but that its
business also put - in the market to
purchase other countries goods.
In order to check German indus
try's war-making capacity, Allied
plans call for control over all strate-
gic materials, with possible elimina-
ton of factories adapted to arms
production.

RADIO TUBES:
Small Surplus

With such scarce radio tubes as
the 12SA7 and 12A8 commanding as
much as $40 in black markets, army
release of 1000, 900 surplus tubes
for civilian use will tend to only
slightly ease the tight supply situ-
alton.
To be returned to manufacturers
for testing and packing before dis
tribution to customers on an "equi-
table basis" the 1000, 900 tubes will
not even approximate the produc-
ton of LISA, 900 in July, which met
only a fraction of the demand.
Because of the services extensive
use of radio equipment for COM
munications between units on the
fighting fronts, trade circles saw
little hope for increased civilian sup
plies until Germany's defeat per-
mitted a cutback in military orders.

With Japan possessing many stra-

spite desperate German attempts
to stem their drive, the Allies
pushed on, with Lieut.. Gen. Mark
Clark's American Fifth army
threatening to close an escape
route for stubborn enemy troops
ringed between it and the Brit
ish Eighth army to the east.
AS the remnants of Germany's
Baltic armies pulled out of Latvia,
the spotlight on the eastern front
swung back to East Prussia in the
north and Hungary on the south,
where the Reds pushed offensives to
crack these anchors of the Nazis'
eastern front.
While the Germans could fall
back on swampy, wooded lake coun-
try in East Prussia to slow the Rus
sian drive, they had no such advan-
tage in Hungary, where the Reds
pressed for the broad open plains to
the southeast of Budapest.
Having landed on the western
coast of Jugoslavia, strong Allied
forces worked inland to cut off the
retreat of an estimated 100000 Ger
mans moving northward from the
lower Balkans.

how did we ever do it?"
American industry did it, Fred. When
the Japs conquered the chief natural rubber

they had dealt a death blow to our war
effort. But, in less than two years, we are
producing enough synthetic rubber in this
country to supply all our military and
essential civilian requirements.
