Russell Mcintyre, who was

The price of such a campaign will
be enormous. During winter cam
paign in which we must concern
trate our resources for the fighting
fronts, we shall be able to furnish
relief only on. a small scale to
those who have the first call upon
us, the people of the liberated coun-
tries. We shall be able to do very
little indeed to renabilitate the pro-
ductive capacity of Allied Europe
while We have to fight the German
Army.
During winter campaign the
condition of Germany will 60 from
bad to worse, and when the newt
able surrender comes, the German
supplies will be exhausted, the Ger
man transport and productive econ
omy will be so shattered and dis
located, that the problem of how
to keep the Germans from starv-
ing to death will at once confront
the Allied military governors. They
will not want the Germans to starve
to death, but their ability to cope
with the situation will become less
the longer the war lasts. The Ger
man situation will be worse, n
needs of the liberated countries will
be greater, the supplies and trans
portation available will be sharply
reduced because so much of them
will have been used up in fighting
the winter campaign.
This is the truth which Goebbels
must conceal from the Germans
in order to prolong his own life.
That the amount of hell on earth
in Germany will be due to the war,
and to the way the Germans have
fought it, and to the way they pro-
long it, is often forgotten even in
Allied discussions of the German
problem. The proof is that no terms
Of surrender the Allies could con-
trive can now avert the fact that
the German government, the Ger
man economy and the German So
cial orde will be so thoroughly
ruined by Hitler's preparation for
the war and by tine course Of the
war that it will take years of sac
rifice and labor to rebuild any.
thing from the ruins.
The fundamental German prob
lem will be what to rebuild and how
to rebuild it: resistance cannot
solve this problem and must make
it more insoluble. For resistance
cannot reduce the Allied terms. But
it can and will, not as matter
of Allied policy but Of inexorable
fact, aggravate the misery Of de-
feat and reduce further the power
of any one to alleviate that misery.

Synthetic Quinine

After nearly one hundred years OF expert
mentations, synthetic quinine has b r
achieved by two young Harvard chemists, Drs
Robert B. Woodward and William E. Doer.
ing. The forthcoming issue Of the Journal oil
the American Chemical Society will contain
an article revealing the technical details Of
the complete synthesis
When quinine is placed in production which
for the sake of our military forces stationed
in malarial regions hopefully will be soon,
science will have overcome one of the heavi-
est losses imposed upon the Western World
by the japanese in their southwest Pacific con-
quests. South American sources of supply have
ing forces and the civilian population, with
result that both have gone short in emer-
gencies, but particularly civilians who natural
~ had to give way to the armed services.
The question that springs involuntarily to
mind is, what will be done about synthetic
quln1ne IN the postwar era? Will it be aban-
doned for the benefit of any trust, when sup.
plies from the Orient are again available?
There has been some talk to the effect thai
synthetic rubber, which so much good
money has been spent since natural rubber
sources were cut off by the Japanese will
no longer be manufactured when the Orient
is again open to world trade and the rubber
plantations of the Netherlands East Indies
are producing for the open market. It ap-
pears preposterous that a product obtained
at such heavy expense in the war emergency
should be Iquidated almost as soon as it is
brought to fair degree of serviceability
but strange things are done in the interest
of trade and pressure politics
If synthetic rubber should prove to have
