The reason for the prediction
that this winter may set q new

is that the ending of gasoline
rationing means more cars on
the road, most of them about

to be travelled per car during
the dangerous snow and ic g

In addition. motorists accus-

THE HOME 0

Says OPA: "Food rationing, in effect,
must be placed on a pay-as-you-go ba-
sis. During the next few months, and
perhaps throughout 1945, ration stamps
will be only good on the basis Of the
supplies that can be made available to
civilians without upsetting the fairest
distribution obtainable. Shortages in
some items, such as butter, may con-
tinue. The choice and variety of meats
and canned fruits and vegetables may
continue to be spotty in some cities.
But as closely as possible point values
will be maintained to assure the shop
per a reasonable choice Of rationed
foods"
How Farmers Can Get Lumber
Farmers who need lumber for emer-
gency maintenance and repair Of farm
dwellings may now apply to the War
Food Administration for preference
ratings instead Of to the WPB Field
Offices. WPB's Office Of Civilian Re-
quirements has transferred to VIA 49,
600, 900 board feet Of lumber from its
allotment for the first quarter of 1915
to provide lumber for emergency main
tenance and repair Of farm dwellings.
Fewer Trucks To Be Made
Less than one-fourth of the motor
trucks estimated as needed to meet es-
sential war and civilian transportation
requirements during 1945 will be pro-
duced and distributed to commercial
operators, the ODT announced today.
The estimate is based on the 1945 civil
ian truck program approved by the War
Production Board. Increased demands
by the armed services for all types of
motor transport was given as the chief
reason for the severe reduction. The
total authorized program mounts to

The American Way

D~isregarding the sad lesson iearne
after World War I, it looks as tnoug
this nation is going to repeat the ser
Gus blunder at the conclusion OF "ori
War II. Washington is full of plans 10
lending money to many OF our Aiiie
and also to some Of our present an
previous enemies.
These plans call for loans Of billion
Of dollars to each country-the "hol
world is being led to expect that onci
Sam will play Santa Claus to ~everypod!
to the tune of many billions of dollars
This vast sum added to our presen
national debt will add up to an appaii
ing total.
While making these so-called loan
will benefit our farmers, laborers
manufacturer and others, because the,
will finance a large export trade, tn
fact of tho matter is that these loan
can never be paid back except in tht
form of goods.
If, and when the payments OF thes
loans become due, the borrowers Shout
undertake to pay with wheat, mea
manufactured products, etc., at price
set on a basis of low wages of improve
ished Europe, or coolie wages Of tt
Orient, our farmers, laborers and mani
facturers will have to compete wit
these low prices.
You can well imagine the howl the
will go up from all of our citizens d
nanding higher tariffs to prevent II
complete disruption Of our economy
this influx of cheap products from {
broad. The imports (the only metho
by which nations can repay their loans
will DO cut off, the loans will no b
repaid, as vas exactly the case afte
World War /, and we will be left holo
ing the bag again, with our nationt
debt increased by approximately the &
mount of these foreign loans.
Such advances of money to foreigi
nations may be necessary, but why no
be realistic about 1t this time by call
ing them "GIFTS"-for that is wha
they really will be. The Congress shoule
fully realize this, and knowing 1t, will
be inclined to scrutinize more CAREFUL
every proposed advance to any foreigl
nation. Further, tho Congress shoul
make it quite clear to tho recipients
that these advances are outright gifts
coming from a generous nation to 1t
Allies, or its former enemies, as The
case may be.
The American public, too, must under
stand hat any sums advanced to foreign
nations will be outright gifts-money
over the dam, never to flow back to US
again. The public, recognizing this fact
will insist that Congress do its duty in
these advances to the barest
minimum.
II this article sounds a bit hard-boil-
Cd. please know that I intend it to be
just that way. Memory Of the horrible
epithet "Uncle Shylock" which was
flung at us when we tried to collect the
loans made after the last war, still
fingers painfully. While I know full
we'll that this country cannot. in fact
has no desire to stand aloof after this
war il over, oblivious to the crying
aeeds Of our Allies, and even OF our
former enemies, the point l am trying
to make is: If we do play Santa Claus
let's do II with our eyes wide open,
knowing that what we put into the
stockings Of foreign nations will be put
there "for keeps. This time let's not
kid ourselves.
