holes in the ceiling to prevent
spread.

Cermany's Industrial Disarmament

GermAny's Industrial Disarmament
 Opinions on what to do with Germany are a dime dozen as plentiful as grandStand strategy at ball game, and for the most part probably as unSound. Everybody has had crack at the prob- lem, and you can take your choice ot experts, from Lord VanSittart and Secre- tary Morgenthau to Joseph P. DoakeS and your Aunt Minnie. Solutions have ranged from mass extermination to Christian forbearance. But on one point most poStwar-G Germany experts agree: Ger many must be kept from building another war machine. You can get lot of opin- ions on how that should be done, too, And one of the most logical seems to us to be that offered by five national tech nical societies. Its very source carries authority, for the suggested program comes from leading practitioners in five branches of engineering civil, mechan- ical, mining and metallurgical, electrical, and chemical. They seem to know whats needed, and their outlined program states how the results should be achieved.
 Briefly, they favor process of elmina- tion which would prohibit the production, above prewar needs, of synthetic oil, nitro gen and its compounds, heavy forgtngS and high alloy steelS, aluminium and air. craft. They would apply like restrictions to imports of manganese, chromium, nickel, tungsten, fluX material, lron ore, steel and steel products.
 This program has already been pre- sented to Secretary Hull, along With request that advisers from these i've en- gineering professions be included m the American delegation at the peace confer nSO raAcnnAhle. The peace treaty is certain to involve industrial decisions of technical nature that will need professional rather than political minds. And compromises in the philosophy of postwar industrial control would require further technical consider ation. In fact, it might be sensible If the nations at war with Germany formu- lated and agreed on an industrial dis armament policy for postwar Germany, and made is public before the end of the war Agreement in this field should be possible, even though governments dont make separate diplomatic commitments in advance of peace conference, or course, for fear of losing face at nome and bargaining power abroad.
 Such an announcement might take some of the wind out of Hitler's sails. AS it is now, he is holding up to the Ger. man people an exaggerated picture ot total economic ruin as their price of defeat. He is using 1t to make them light harder and to prolong the war. All we have announced so far is unconditional surrender, SO we cannot refute Hitlers congregations. Germany's industrial future will doubtless be brighter than what Hitler has painted. To announce 1t in advance might stimulate the ger man will for peace, and save Allied lives
