he said would provide electricity.
fertilizers and other goods to raise
their standard of living. IF Amer
lea, with six million able-bodied
men in the Army, could rise from
a defeated nation on December 7,
1941, to the greatest power in the
world today, then we can well spare
some of these men in like pro-
jects," he said.
We attempted to buy Japan and
it didn't work, Mr.. Hodges said,
and there is a limit to our re-
sources. When they are gone, what
can we do to replace them, he ask
ed.
Work for a real peace will take
the combined thinking of the COM
bined peoples, he said.
Mr.. Hodges brought Wilmington
Kiwanians the greetings of the Will
son club and revealed that the
Seventh District, of which Whining
ton is a part, was the largest in
the entire nation in point of num-
Der of clubs. He congratulated the
Rev. Walter Freed, secretary of the
club, on his fine work, which he
termed of great value to himself
Earlier in the program, ]. S.
Hill, of the Regional USO office in

Liev4enant-Governor F. A. rip"
Hodges, of the Seventh Carolinas
district of Kiwanis international,
speaking to Wilmington members
at their regular meeting yester-
day, told the club that the first part
of our task was over-the winning OF
the war-but that building for peace
may be as difficult, or even more
difficult, if we are to build true
peace.
He asked members, ''how are
we as Kiwanians to build for
peace? What concrete methods are
we going to use? Are our needs
and aims clearly defined? Are our
methods fundamentally sound?"
1--WE must have more than mega
tive good, he said, citing the work
of a Tennessee hill minister who
had in Is years changed an impov-
erished rural section and people
into an area of prosperous farms
and industrious and religious fam
lilies.
Mr.. Hodges, who is a professor
of physical science at Atlantic
Christian College, stated that ply
steal science was so to IS years
ahead of social science because the
reaction of material things is con-
slant while the reactions of men
are variable, even unpredictable,
adding IN DIR difficulties
Speaking on the question of
whether or not we should have free
trade in the postwar era, Mr.. Hod-
ges said that he had heard an au-
thority on international affairs state
that it was necessary for real
peace. When asked if that meant
this country should compete with
the Japanese textile industry, with
its long hours and low age scale,
the expert dismissed it as de
tail that hadn't been cleared up"
Mr.. Hodges expressed the belief
that rather than trying to COM
pete with other countries with low.
er living standards, the United
States should help those countries
raise their standards to ours, then
it would be possible to compete on
a free trade basis. He pointed out
that when we had allowed the
dumping of North African lemons
on our markets, which had been
raised on low standard employe
wage basis, it resulted in ruin to
many California growers and did
not lower consumer prices.
Suggesting that rather than at
tempt to give destitute nations
money and physical goods, we try
to help them help themselves.
An example of this was the plan
to help China build a dam on the

Shortage OF Gasoline
In East Is Forecast

possibility that automobile owners
might 60 on a driving spree"
causing an acute but temporary
gasoline shortage in some parts
of the east, was forecast today
by W. S. S. Rodgers. chairman
of the board of the Texas COM
pany.
Getting gasoline to the thirsty
tanks of the nations automobiles
is LARGELY matter of transporta-
ton, he said, and in the north
east it takes approximately seven
days for supplies to come from
the refining areas in the south
and west.
In very short time, however,
he said, the industry would be
able to furnish all the gasoline
demanded by drivers.

All Lend-Lease Plans
Will Be Closed Soon

WASHINGTON, Aug. IS Up -
All lend-lease projects based on
war needs will be brought to a
close "as rapidly as possible" the
government announced today.
Leo T. Crowley, Foreign Econo-
mic Administrator, whose agency
administers lend-lease, said in a
statement that lend-lease would be
limited to nations aiding in the
problems of redeployment of U.

continue lend-lease to these ma
tons, to help offset the expen-
ditures of material and facilities
which they are making in our be-
