Torch at Tacloban
Washington Evening Starr

After two and half years of Japanese dctation and oppression nothing could be more impressive and encouraging to the people of the Philippines than the fact that their commonwealth government IS func- tioning once again on their own soil At Tacloban, on Leyte Island President Osmena and his cabinet are now formally installed in their position of author ity with all prewar laws and institutions restored wherever the enemys occupation and control have ended.
 The residents of Tacloban can hear the thunder of American guns as our steadily beat back the Japanese, and they can see the Stars and Stripes flying beside their commonwealth flag, and they can feel supreme confidence that from this relatively small beginning liberation will spread everywhere throughout the islands from Luzon to Mindanao The psychological effect of General MacArthurs and Presi- dent Osmena's uniquely swift action is bound to be far-reaching-an incentive to the Flpnos to resist more than ever in the occupied areas, and body blow to Tokyos puppet Laurel regime in Manila.
 There can be little doubt that the news of this historic event has already been carried into the remotest parts of the Philippines and that hearing 1t and coupling it with the fact that General Macarthur has immense armed power at his disposal the people of the commonwealth will now become harassing to the Japanese the French to the Nazs after the Allied invasion of Normandy. As they smash for ward Leyte in other words or if they should make other landings at any moment elsewhere among the islands averaging forces will receive the active help of the Fipnos the active help of brothers-in arms whose kin on Bataan and Corregdor fought and died with Americans for liberty
 Manila, the traditional capital, IS some hundreds of miles away and still firmly in the hands of the Japanese but to the people there, to the people everywhere in the Philippines Tacloban, as the tenn porary seat of their restored government will from now on be like torch burning in the night It will be torch of liberty, blazing promise, backed up by the ful might of America that the day is not too far distant when the Fipinos, completely delivered from the hated enemy, will be their own sovereign masters holding their heads high as free men in the company of free nations.

BOOSTED UP THE LADDER

Stettinius' first big job was With John L. Pratt, chief operating vice president of General Motors. Pratt took young Stettinius under his wing at the age of only 26 and helped boost him up the ladder until Ed himself was made vice president of General Motors at the tender age of 31.
 Later, when Ed came to Wash ineton with the National Defense Council. he brought John Pratt with him. Pratt has remained, and watches over his young hopeful with the jealous devotion of a mother hen with one chick. A newsn1an once told Pratt he planned to write a personality setch of Stettinius.
 But" said Pratt, with icy horror, has MT. Stettinius given you permission to write about him?"
 There is no question that, when Stettinius left the chairmanship of J. P. Morgan's U. s. Steel, the board of directors were delighted to have him contribute his services to his country. They vigorously ap- plaude1 his patriotism.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1944-12-02

However, there is some question as to whether this delight at Eds exit was because of his liberal viewpoint in reducing the price of steel and cooperating with the CIO; or because he bungled things as an executive.
 Unquestionably, when Stettinius first came to Washington, he con- tinued to be a bungler. He was a whiz at making out organization charts and compiling long lists of business executives who were to do this or that. But he bungled mis- erably in estimating U. $. war needs of aluminium, brass, bronze and steel, and set the war effort back on it's heels. His press con- ference statements that there was plenty of steel and aluminium got to be ludicrous, later tragic.
 Then Ed began to learn. He learned, among other things, that you could not always take the word of industry As a result, he did a swell job in providing for more octane gasoline, and did his best to prod Jesse Jones into building synthetic rubber factories before Pearl Harbor-though he failed.
 Before Ed got into his stride, however, he was eased out of his job in charge of raw materials in the National Defense Council. Later he became head of prioritles Tn OPM, where also his record has to be chalked up as failure. The priorities system was so swamped that finally Donald Nelson brought in a flock of Sears Roebuck em- ployees who broke the log jam.
 From each of those jobs, Stet- tinius was rescued largely by his friend Harry Hopkins, who finally
The Daily Alaska empire., 1944-12-02
HAS SUCKED TOUGH JOB

In the State Department. Stet- tinius has worked increasingly. Most of the time he has bucked an uphill, almost impossible job. He has been patient and persever- ing in working with Cordell Hull. But he got nowhere in realizing his greatest ambition-reorganizing the State Department.
 Originally Ed planned to sweep out all four of Hull'S Assistant Secretaries, bring new blood into our creaking diplomacy. But Hull said no. Then Stettinius tried to appoint two new assistants, increas- ing the total to six so as to bring in at least a little new life. Hull at first agreed, but in the end wouldn't act.
 So far as reorganization is con- cerned, Eds most noteworthy &C., complishments have boiled down to relegating the Negro messengers from State Department corridors to the mems lavatory, and to giving the ancient building thorough scrubbing.
 Stettinius doesn't pretend to know too much about foreign af- fairs. In talking to ambassadors, he usually refers them to subordi- nate expert advisers, and never re- verses those advisers. His theory is to pick good men and then rely on them. If he can really put this into practice, the slow-moving moth-eaten machinery of U. s foreign affairs may get a new lease on life. It has long needed it NOTE-Stettiniu has been scru- pulously careful never to favor his former companies, U. s. Steel ano General Motors, or his brother-in- law Juan Trippe, who runs Par American Airways. When matters affecting them have arisen, he has refused to participate in the dis cussions.

 Good and evil aspects are dis cerned for today. The stars favor the clergy and leaders of thought along constructive lines.
 HEART AND HOME: Under this configuration women may be sub ject to depression and inclined to look backward with many regrets for past joys. They should turn to the churches which are under the most uplifting influences at this time.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Merchants and manufacturers will profit ill the coming week. Employment will be available for many returning soldiers at the beginning of the new year when special care will be taken to fit workers to their jobs.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Educators will discuss complex problems af- fecting academic courses. In cer- tain colleges sweeping changes in aims and methods will be made, it is prognosticated. In the post war world science is to dominate as technically trained soldiers seek instruction.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Transportation will be increasing ly difficult in all war zones and will retard progress as United Ma tions Armies press forward in the occupation of Germany. Berlin continues under threatening stars that seem to presage continuation of wholesale destruction.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of eX- traordinary activity. Success will attend ambitious ventures.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be restless and inclined to wander in pursuit of professional knowledge. They will be mentally keen and physically robust. 5I

put him in charge of Lend-lease, which is Harry's pet baby. There Stettinius, with the help of trained experts from Treasury Procure ment, did an Al job.
 But here again the benign eye of Harry Hopkins watched over him. When it was proposed to put the Lend Lease Administration under the Foreign Economic Ad- ministration and Leo Crowley, Hopkins intervened He didn't want his friend Stettinius to become merely a bureau chief under Crow ley.
 In the general shake-up which followed, Stettinius found himself in one of the most coveted posts in the Government, as Undersec- retary of State. Prestige was pre- served and once again Eds guardi- an angels had taken care of him.

Benefic aspects rule strongly to- day which should be stimulating in its influence and favorable to con- structive work.
 HEART AND HOME: This should be a fortunate day for girls to meet eligible young men. The stars encourage mental vision and quick sympathies. Friendship and not romance in indicated. This is an suspicious week for domestic planning and for informal enter taining.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS Employers come under a configuration which seems to presage cordial relations with employees. Labor leaders should gain in public confidence through changes in union policies that strengthen organizations.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Discussion of nonpartisan peace projects will reveal strong political prejudices.  After the holidays Congress will engage in protracted analysis of Dumbafton Oakes recommenda- tions. Progress toward international agreement will be slow
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS s: Saturn eliminating in eastern Europe presages added misery and extension of economic chaos. Need of aid from the United States will accent problems concerning food supplies.

LIVESTOCK FEED VALUE OF
THE BEET CROP
BY JACK MAYNARD

Government figures just released
indicate an estimated crop of s.
S21 900 tons of sugar beets harvest
ed this year from SCI 900 acres. AS
production fell considerably below
the var food administrations 1914
goal and because domestic sugar
supply prospects are less favorable
than a year ago, the w. F. A.,
according to a current release, Is
asking beet growers to plant 951,-
900 beet acres in 1915.
In addition to the present esti-
mated production of some 985, 200
tons of refined sugar this 1914
sugar beet crop produced by
products for livestock feed having
a replacement value equivalent In
round numbers to 1O,67O,OOO bushels
of corn and S5O,92O tons of alfalfa
hay or equal to 10 bushels of corn
and IL tons of alfalfa hay for
each beet acre harvested.
Improvements that have been de-
veloped in the handling and feeding
of beet ~by-products largely during
the past decade have greatly in
creased their ability to produce
gains and to decrease meat produc-
ton costs on beet belt farms. Tops
carefully dried and stacked or ION
verted into good quality beet top
si!age and then fed in limited
amounts with grain and alfalfa have
shown a far higher feeding value
than their current prices (Which are
still largely based on previous and
more wasteful methods of handling)
would indicate. Beet pulp properly
supplemented with phosphorus in
one form or another and fed with
grain and hay has produced mora
efficient gains than was formerly
considered possible.
Thanks to the many careful feed
ing tests conducted by agricultural
experiment stations, the beet farm
er today who is using his by
products as a supplement to grain
and hay in his livestock feeding
operations car Measure his feed
savings by the cost of the ac-
amounts of both grain and hay
that these by-products replace.
Briefly, these tests have shown
that the amount of tops secured
a ton of beets which may be
priced at only Coo or 75e per ton
IF beets can actually replace grain
and hay that at present prices would
lost about $500 while each ton Of
'eet pulp priced around $1.4O dur
ng the feeding season can replace
mounts of grain and hay that
would cost about $3.50.
These figures indicate that with
present approximate feed costs, each
on of beets grown provides live
took feed in the form of by
PRODUCTS that can mean a net saw
ng to the grower of some $3.50 in
eed costs as compared to the use
f livestock rations containing grain
nd hay alone.
