The theme of their meeting is

The men are members of one of

forest hideout southwest of Paris.
All were once on their nations

While still hiding from the enemy,
the 121 agreed to meet after the war
and even picked Cleveland as their
first convention city. Their liberia
tion by Gen. George Patton's Sd
Army year ago today determined
the time.
The aim of the group is to cement
more friendly relations among the
Allied nations. Said Flying Officer
William Brayley of Montreal. the

ASsoCldJeQ fTeSS olhH "rlbcT
President Truman views the early
postwar period as the most critical
in this Nations history from the
standpoint of the average Ameri-
cans daily welfare.
The Chief Executive sees in three
specific and related problems the
top challenge to government. in
dustry and labor. Those problems
are:
l. How to prevent widespread un-
employment.
2. How to gear the machinery of
war to the arts of peace.
3. How to keep purchasing power
at a level high enough to absorb
the output of busy peacetime fac
tories.
Speaking in the Pacific Northwest
early in his campaign for the vice
presidency last year, Mr.. Truman
advocated the overall approach to
reconversion bring the Govern
ments's multi billion dollar war

plant investment into use by private
industry.
Backlog in Buying Power.
Since entering the White House,
he has called for Government funds
to augment unemployment COM
penSation payments until the States
themselves can assume the full
burden of insuring against sudden
loss of purchasing power.
Meanwhile, the Office of War
Mobilization and Reconversion, un-
der his old friend and appointee,
John w. Snyder, is at work on a
multiplicity of plans, all aimed at
softening the impact of a sudden
halt to war work.
There Is, Mr.. Truman knows, a
vast market for civilian goods, and
the savings in War Bonds and bank
accounts offer the means for their
purchase as fast as they become
available.
But plants must be cleared of
machinery not adapted to the manu-
facture of civilian goods and other
machinery must replace it. This is
only one of the problems of recon-
version that will require time
Workers then must be channeled
back into the reconverted plants,
the President believes, at wages suf-
flciently high to sustain mass pur-
chasing power.
The tax structure must be re-
examined not only with a view to-
ward enabling industry to finance
full speed reconversion but in the
light of public debt of astronomi-
cal dimension. The public's stake
in War Bonds, the general desire for
a strong Army and Navy, the COM
mitments to service men and women
under the CT Bill of Rights all will
require heavy expenditures that
must be financed by taxes if the
debt is not to continue to rise.
Even as the cruiser Augusta car
ried him to the Big Three confer
ence at Berlin and as he returned
with Generalissino Stalin's final
agreement to enter the war against
Japan, the thoughts of the postwar
home front we're weighing on Mr..
Truman's mind.
Job Can Be Done.
He told reporters it was not a
job for one man, or for any group
OF men in either government, in
dustry or labor, but a job for all,
just like the job of war itself.
OF one thing, however. the Chief
Executive is confident-that it is
a job that can be done.
A team that could turn out planes
and tanks and guns-and atomic
bombs-with such speed and in
such proportions as to astound the
world can, he believes, perform the
same miracles for peace, and for
the welfare of the little people all
over the world
ooh, how I wish I were 80 years
younger" Mr.. Truman used to tell
last years campaign crowds as he
dwelt on the possibilities of the fu-
ture. The vast resources of the
United States, American manufac-
turing ingenuity. the creation of
purchasing power abroad offer op-
portunities, he said, that confound
the skeptics, the men of little faith.
These thoughts of the coming
peace run through the President S
mind as he undertakes direction Of
the program on which the. future
will be charted.
