Gen.. Arnold Tells
Why AAF Is Supreme
BY SILER FREEMAN

When you see and hear Gen.
Hap" Arnold. you can under
stand why American air power
has turned the tide of the war.
He is the type of leader that
breathes confidence and trust,
a smiling, genial but strong
jawed inspiration TO the men
under him.
Without boasting or heroics,
he told OF the exploits of his
men in the AAF before the
Economics Club. how they are
blasting the Germans behind
their own lines and deep in
their homeland and besting the
finest airmen the NaziS can
send against them. The box
score shows the margin on our
side.
Like a football team. Gen.
Arnold believes that the side
with the most reserves wins.
And we have the reserves,
where the Germans haven't.
ITS like a bunch of freshmen
being put In against the Notre
Dame Seniors he put it.

Show Army Films

Two army films were shown

showed the evolution of the
Bog super bomber and what
il can do. This film is designed
for showing TO war workers and
copies of il can be, obtained
from the Sixth Service Com
mand in the Federal Building.
The other film showed the
bombing of Ploesti oil fields in
RHmania. Some of the scenes
were taken from captured Ger
man films, showing how they
fought the terrific flames caused
by the AAFs raids on the rich
refineries. If there was any
doubt of the accuracy of the
American bombardier'S aim.
this will dispel it.

Sees Decentralization

Hardly good news TO Detroit,
but never the less something
we have TO face is the prospect
of greater decentralization of
industry.
Now along comes Harvey
Fruehauf, Detroit trailer manu-
facturer, with the prediction
that the trend will be greatly
accelerated in the near future.
AS factors working toward
this direction he cited:
sGreater use of farm prod
ucts as raw materials for manu-
featuring.
sDesire OF workmen TO stay
close TO the soil.
sShorter industrial working
hours.
sSubcontracting to small
plants.
Increased accessibility OF
rural areas.
. Ability 10 give year-round
employment by staggered farm
and industrial schedules.

What'sNew
In Business
Better Freight Car
Has No Demand Nov

The railroads can buy lighter.
faster, and more economical
postwar freight cars now, but
they don't want them.
Behind this apparent paradox
Is some very sound reasoning
on their part. The rails have
found that once a new car is
placed into operation and moves
off the home lines, it is fire.
quently weeks and months be-
fore II returns home again:
sometimes they are gone for
years.
At the present time 81 per
cent Of the cars are listed
among the "strayS' as against
less than half that figure in
normal times.
Although a railroad collects
81 day for the use of its cars
by another road, small roads
find il profitable in busy periods
such as the present TO use the
borrowed rolling stock.
Actually the new type cars
offer real savings at fairly low
cost but there's little incentive
to buy them for some one else 10
use. They range in price from
81 500 to So, 800 as against 81 800
to $500 for the ordinary cars.
After the war il will be
different matter. however. The
new cars will certainly get the
nod.

Finds Politics
Hit Business
BY LEWIS HANEY

PROFESSOR OF economics, ~. y. university
Politics dominated the news last
week and shared the popular in
terest with the war. Unlike the
war. however. the political con-
flict remained completely uncer-
tain. Unfortunately the campaign
was not conducted in a way to fix
attention upon the major issues
of economics and international
policy. The big issue as the tumult
and the shout ing died down,
seemed to be the question. should
Roosevelt and his motley New
Deal following be given another
four years of power? AS the week
closed. the difficulty of getting
clearcut majority on the issue
was apparent, and contributed to
business uncertainty.
The various weekly indexes of
business activity were mixed. Api
parently the total industrial pro-
duction receded a bit further.
War SPENDING was a trifle lower,
while proposed increases in civil
liam goods production continued to
hang fire.

STEEL OUTPUT OFF

On account of strikes and re-
pairs. steel production was lower.
production was up a
little, but the orders were off.
While railway car loadings gained,
this was chiefly due to an increase
in our backward coal output; and
it is notable that the electric
power production declined slightly.
Engineering construction con-
tracts rose, but this was entirely
due to public works.
And while victory in the war is
as certain as ever. the duration
of the conflict seemed less GER
tain. Churchill talks of a longer
war. German resistance at the
moment seems strong. The pro-
gress made in the Philippines
seems offset by the weakness in
China
