Making Postwar lobs-0ut of Meat!

LOW many jobs will there be as this
L i country returns to peacetime pro-
duction? Will there be enough jobs for
veterans, for former war workers?
No one can say, exactly. But this much
we know: Many industries along our
routes offer amazing possibilities for jobs
in the immediate future - thousands of
now jobs that have never existed
before! These jobs are going to grow out
of the gigantic demand for goods and
services that exists in this country and
from production that will satisfy that
demand. : -~'s.....>
Consider the meat-packing industry.

Meat suffered the greatest shortage and
was missed more than any other food dur
ing the war. Moreover, meat has become
greater item in our diets-both military
and civilian. And new knowledge of the
health-giving qualities of meat has made
meat more in demand than ever.
Right now, leaders in the meat packing
industry are readying production facilities
to take care of tremendous increase in
domestic consumption. They confidently
expect a rise in demand of as much as 1891

HOLLYWOOD.
Behind movie headlines: Manu-
facturers of those flossy new postwar
gadgets are staging a mad race to
get their wares into pictures to be
released in early 1916. In several
instances major studios are holding
up current films awaiting arrival of
the atmospheric samples.
Radio-phonograph combinations,
washing machines, refrigerators
irons, etc., are being hustled off the
lines and shipped to Hollywood
where Walter E. Kline, high-salaried
ad lobbyist for movies, spots them
in the proper situations. Echophohe
with a streamlined radio innovation
probably wins the postwar race by

the full story is told. Millions Of
words have told the story before
but not like this. Here is the image
of war. the sound and fury of it
and the words and feelings of those
fighting it, all Of them woven to-
gether into a narrative of unvary-
ing eloQuence and dramatic force
This is the way the greatest con-
flict of the war was, the English and
soldier voices on the
sound track say, and this is the way
they hope in their deepest hearts
it never will be again.
THE True Glory" which Gen.
Dwight Eisenhower asked be made
is much more than a factual film
Its directors, Capt. Carson Kanin
and Carol Reed, American and Eng
lish, respectively. and the 1,4Oo
combat cameramen who made 1t
have made it miraculously some
thing more than that. Funda-
it is the story of the most
mounted military cam
paign in history, but it is touched
with the humanity of those who
drove that war machine from Nor
mandy's beachheads into the Reich
X X
AS a piece of summing up of the
great adventure of the United Ma
tions, the picture, produced under
the auspices Of the American and
British governments, is a master
piece in every respect. The mani
fold qualities which make it such
are SO equal in value that it is i'm
possible to single any one of them
as OF more merit than the others.
An arbitrary choice could be the
narrative that accompanies the
visual images of the conflict. Nc
Olympian voice rides the sound
track of The True Glory" The ac-
cents and the words, on the con-
trary, are those of the men who
directed the campaign, and the GIs
and Tommies who fought it. The
narration is handled mostly by the
latter. The speeches are those OF
men in battle, plain men. Some OF
the phrases are humorous. some
terrified. some bitter. All of then
are honest.
All Of THE True Glory" is honest
which is it's greatest overall merit
1t faces the fact that the German.
were no walkover. The GIs anc
Tommies who tell of it make il
clear that they went through hel

Northern France, and further ter
rifYng versions of it in the Ar
dennes, the battle of the bulge" al
Aachen and elsewhere until they
came to their winter of agony on
the west bank of the Rhine. More
over, they admit that when the
Germans were not making a wreck
of it at such points as these, it
broke down of itself at the peak OF
its force when ammo" ran short
and fuel ran shorter.
Gen. Eisenhower desire for a
record such as that contained In
The True Glory" authorized no
deletions in the record when it was
not favorable. That would not have
been just TO the millions who will
see the picture, but above all it
would have been unjust to those
who fought through defeats and
failure to achieve final victory.
y \ *
Another dramatic aspect of the
pictures undertaking fidelity to the
record is its stress upon the fact
that teamwork won the war. In a
foreWord, remarkable for its simple
eloquence, Gen. Eisenhower points
out that the enemy's greatest blundel
was his faith that he could break
up our partnership. but we were
welded together in one great cause
The voices that are fused on the
sound track establish that spirit OF
comradeship perfectly.
But, THE True Glory" says, this
was only part of the teamwork
which ends in triumph for the Allieo
cause. 1t is primarily a picture o1
combat. but it pays the respects ol
the fighting men at the front to the
civilians behind the lines who pro.
vided him with the staggeringly
numerous items with which he
fought.
Most Of the 80 minutes, 1872 OF
them we should guess, of The True
Glory" are devoted to the titanic
struggle in Europe. In the fading
