36-year old farmer named Ed Buffers saw
way to do something about the meat short

Two years ago he was worrying about the
scarcity of meat - wondering what he could
do to open up new source of supply. That's
when he decided to raise buffalo.

ONCE he'd made up his mind, he wrote to
the Department of the Interior, to zoos
professors and everyone who might know
anything about buffaloes. Then he located
a small herd of 2l to start with. And he
whisked about the country looking for more
buffalo or bison, as they are correctly
called.
On his trips he talked with hotel food
buyers, trying to create a market for
buffalo meat. Some were interested but
timid. Others sneered at the very suggestion.

In New York, Ed managed to win the ear
of Lucius Boomer, of the Waldorf-Astoria
As a result, buffalo meat headined the menu
of Mr.. Boomers Christmas Party as panked
steak. And it was sensation.
Overnight, voices of eastern gourmets were
praising pioneer commonplace. Ed was in
terviewed, guest starred by radio, tempted by
fat contracts for exclusive supply.
Friendly as a puppy socially, Buffers
proved as sharp as bull buffalo's horn in
business deal. With markets lined up, he had
to find more animals. He located a surplus
government herd of buffalo, asked the banks
for loans to bid on it. Interesting idea, said
the banks. But their money belonged to solid
citizens who weren't in the habit of taking
financial pot-shots at wild animals.

kind is exactly that country which,
at this moment, is in the best position
to wage aggressive War-namely our
own. For the time being, at least. We
alone are in possession of the most
terrible aggressive weapon the world has
ever known: The atomic bomb.
The atomic bomb, however, is only
the elimination of a long series of
technical developments which give every
advantage to the aggreSsor. The Ger
man general stafs since Karl Won
ClauseWltz have always reckoned war
plans on the "blitz" strategy. From the
standpoint Of pure military science they
were right. In the future military
scientists of an war colleges will want
to plan to strike first in strained situ-
atiOns. rather than wait to be attacked.
This is recognized even in the Pearl
Harbor report, which says:
In time Of peace it is difficult for the
United States to prevent an attack by
another nation because of the conSti-
tutional requirement that prior to a
declaration Of war by Congress, no blow
may be struck until after a hostile act
Nas been delivered. This is a military
consideration that gives a dishonorabe
potential enemy the advantage of the
initiative :"
1t is matter Of the greatest sig
nihcance that the first blows in both
this war and the last were struck by
nations whose war-making powers rest
ed in the executive. not in representa-
tive parliamentS. They could go to war
first, and trust patriotism, propa ganda
and war fever to support them after
ward in an issue of national life or
death. Woodrow Wilson was not talk
ing nonsense when he said, the world
must be made safe for democracy" and
1t is reasonable to predict that when
all the nations have the atomic bomb
either war must be really outlawed or
democracy will sit on a volcano.
This is the significance of the war

Stronq-Arm Tactics

While it is not surprising, for the
same tactics have worked before, it
is something of a disappointment to
see the United Automobile Workers
begin their highly important post
war maneuvers in Detroit along the
lines they have indicated.
1t is disappointing because the
whole strategy of obtaining new
wage and other advantages by
threats, supported by show of
force, promises so little of perma-
nent value. A strike vote, on petition
OF the automobile workers, will be
taken by the National Labor Re-
lations Board first in General Motors
plants, then at Chrysler and Ford
The workers probably will vote
heavily in favor of a strike. The
negotiations with management will
begin in an atmosphere already
made thick by expressions of hos
tility, with threats that the terms
laid down by the union must be
met-or else There may be an
agreement without strike. But
advantages gained under such meth
DDS are relatively fleeting and merely
set the stage for the creation of
another crisis.
The accent, as usual, is placed on
wage increases, amounting to about
80 per cent of existing basic wages.
The emphasis, under a more states
manlike approach to postwar prob
lens, should be placed on ways and
means to bring about full employ
ment and steadily improving work.
Ing conditions. The general welfare,
as well as the welfare of the auto
mobile workers, depends on sus-
tanned public purchasing power.
But purchasing power is not in
creased when higher wages are offset
by higher prices and it is unlikely,
despite suggestions to the contrary
from William H. Davis and others,
that even as great an industry as
General Motors can absorb 80 per
cent increase in wages without
boosting prices.
The pattern to be cut in Detroit
may be expected to be followed gen.
orally. That is one reason why the
same old tactic Of approaching COL
lective bargaining with a tremen-
dous show of force and loaded guns
on the table is disappointing, another
indication of the need for national
labor policy which places more de-
pendence on reason than on force.
1t had been hoped that the labor
management conferences planned
for late October, under Government
auspices, would have served as a
guide to solution of some of the COM
plicated problems Of readjusting the
Nation to peacetime economy. The
outline of strong arm methods. re-
vealed by the United Automobile
Workers in Detroit, makes that hope
more remote.

Return to Free Enterprise

Two of the great cooperative in
dustrial combinations of the war
are preparing now for dissolution on
October /. One is the pool of about
Seventysix primary oil supply COM
panies, under which it was possible to
make common use of supplies as we'll
as means of transportation in meet
ing East Coast civilian and military
needs of about two billion barrels of
petroleum products. The other is
the Automotive Council for War
Production, embracing a total of
654 manufacturing companies whose
combined efforts produced over %
billion dollars worth of military
equipment.
In both cases the combinations of
resources and skills were brought
about through an unself1sh spirit of
voluntary cooperation which saw
the free but organized exchange of
trade secrets, methods of production.
combined attack on every new prob
lem requiring for it's solution the
best brains available, even the free
exchange of patents. and the adop-
tion of the best method to meet the
universal need of winning the war.
The combinations represented were
the antithesis of every tradition
associated with competition in a
system of free enterprise, but helped
make possible the successful mobili-
zation of industry which gave our
men in uniform the means of vic
tory.
All this is being abandoned now.
But why. if such a combination
worked so well in time of war, would
it not serve as we'll in meeting the
problems of peacetime production?
One answer lies in the fact that the
experience, the skill, the initiative
and the knowledge of how to do
things, so successfully combined in
war emergency. were themselves
the products of competition and free
enterprise. 1t is to be doubted if
under any other system there would
have been available the elements
which were pooled to bring about
the marvel of Americas war pro-
duction.

.~a This Changing World
BY Constantine Br0zcn

Administration leaders are convinced
that in spite of blasts from Congress
against granting Britain three to six
billion-dollar loan an agreement will
be reached to help that country back
on its feet. High administration circles
believe that Britain's request is worthy
of most serious consideration, provided
that definite agreements for future po-
litical and economic cooperation be-
tween these two countries are also
reached and certain territorial conces-
sions are made in lieu of interest on
this new loan.
From confidential talks between the
American and British governments. it
appears that the White House State
Department and Treasury Department
are favoring in principle granting the
loan to Britain.
The following is the trend of reason
ing of high Washington officials on
this matter: Long before Pearl Harbor
the country decided that the British
Isles were our first line of defense We
adopted a policy openly hostile to the
Axis when President Roosevelt an
lIidG tIIc OIlItu oJdJtS WOulu
become the arsenal of democracy and
asked Congress to pass the lease-lend
act. We extended the zone of our
territorial waters in the Atlantic, which
according to international custom was
only IL miles from our shores, to
hundreds of miles to the east and chased
German vessels long before Pearl Har-
Dor. We saved Britain from military
disaster not because of any emotional
sentiments but because the Govern
ment believed that this was vital to
Americas national defense.
Now, administration leaders maintain
1t is equally to our national interest to
save Britain from social and economic
chaos. The people of this country ap-
pear interested in maintaining the
present social structure of the world
and are looking askance at totalitarian
states such as are being rapidly formed
in many sections of Europe. The fact
that Britain has a labor leftiSt gov
ernment does not change the situation
so far as we are concerned This Gov
ernment did not come to power by
coup d'etat or by foul means The Tory
government headed by Winston Church
i'll was beaten fairly by the British
people who cast their votes in complete
freedom and without any of the tricks
used in other countries where actual
relationships have been established.
Under these circumstances, it does not
