that II "Old Hickory" were here In
this hectic period, his old flesh,
blood, powder and birthstone self,
he would have charged right up to
the state department steps when he
heard of American planes being shot
down in Europe.
The United States has gone long
way toward world leadership since
the year 1871 when a little, 14-year-
old boy named Andy jackson, along
with his brother "continentals" was
fighting the armies of the greatest
nation of the day-Great Britain.
Andy's two brothers were killed and
he was captured but he lived to
turn the tables when he led his
"long-rifie" heroes to victory in the
battle of New Orleans, 81 years
later.
"Old Hickory" must be a little
confused as he gazes across to the
White House, beyond it to the Po-
tomac and the Pentagon and be-
yond that and the Atlantic to Eu-
rope today.

Profits or Wages
Which Come First?

Recently I received a postcard
saying: Thought OPA was sup
posed to reduce prices, not increase
them" 1t was signed "Dumbbell."
Well, a lot of us dumbbells
thought that was what it was for.
But when congress tore OPA to bits
and then reshaped it nearer to its
hearts desire, it laid down specific
orders for raising prices. The law
was written on the logical theory
that you can't expect farmer to
raise, or a manufacturer to make,
things that cost so much in the rails
ing or the making that there is no
profit in the game.
Who is to blame for high prices?
The manufacturers who made so
much out of government contracts,
or the workers who got higher
wages for making the things the
government needed? If you know
which came first, the hen or the
egg, you know the answers.
A new rival of DDT has been dis
covered which not only kills pests
but keeps them away for week or
10 days. Of course, I wouldn't COM
nit murder but I know lot of
pests whose absence for 10 days
would be a Godsend.

MEAT:
Production Incentive

Taking advantage of the new OPA
act empowering him to set live
stock ceilings, Secretary of Agri-
culture Anderson called for substan-
tial boosts in cattle and hog prices
to encourage feeding this fall and
to assure adequate supplies of beef
next winter and spring.
Declaring that prospects pointed
to plentiful supplies of feed grains
this year, Anderson stated that it
was necessary to bring stock
prices in line with feed costs to spur
farmers into fattening stock. Other
wise, he said, large numbers of lean
animals would be butchered, Great
ing a serious shortage later.
Anderson's recommendation for a
boost in the cattle top to $20.25 per
hundredweight, Chicago basis, and
in the hog ceiling to $16.25 ran
counter to OPAdministrator Paul
Porter's desire to establish prices
around the old level of $18 and
$14.85. AS a result of the boosts, re-
tail ceilings were scheduled to rise
from two to eight cents on beef and
about three cents on pork.

tor John D. Small worked out the
new controls after the building in

ging of the whole emergency hous-
ing program for vets.
Leaving a meeting with govern
ment officials prior to the announce
ment of the new program, Joseph
Myerhoff, president of the Nation
al Association of Home Builders, de-
clared that the industry had failed
to get the flow of materials neces-
sary for the completion of 100000 to
100000 homes under construction,
and that the shortages have length
ened the construction time from 3

GREECE:
Big Stakes

Greece forged to the front of the
troubled European picture as the
scene of the latest tug of diplomatic
war between the western allies and
Soviet Russia.
Working boldly to establish SUI
premacy throughout eastern Europe
and adjoining Asia Minor, Moscow
recalled Amb. Konstantine X. Rod
ionov from Greece as mark of
displeasure against the holding of a
plebiscite to return King George II
to his throne.
Because Britain, supported by the
u. S., favored both the restoration
of the monarchy and the Populist
party government now in the saddle.
Russias move really was pointed
against Anglo-American policy. The
presence of 10000 British troops in
Greece has acted as lever against
a Communist inspired seizure of
power, and the visit of U. S. war
ships to Grecian waters before the
plebiscite was seen as a gesture of
friendship for the rightist regime.
The tussle between the Anglo
American and Russian blocs in
Greece is for big stakes: A govern
ment friendly to the British would
assure them of toehold in the Bal
kans and an advance base for the
Near East and Suez canal, while
Russian domination of the country
would result in complete Soviet
hegemony in the Balkans and pro-
tected flank in the event of trouble
in Asia Minor.

RUSSIA WANTS DARDANELLEs

But what made the Yugoslavian
development even more serious
than it's surface indications were the
private reports available to official
dom here that the Russians planned
to move against Turkey and take
the Dardanelles. Her soldiers on
the Turkish border had started fir
ing in the air over the Turks in
recent days, even as the rockets
from her part of Germany had been
flying over the Swedes (the rockets
brought an immediate answer in
large Swedish loan to Russia).
Now Russia does not need to
fortify the Dardanelles, unless
she expects to go to war against
Turkey. She has no navy of
consequence, but what she has
may operate with free passage
in and out Of the Black seal.
Our note rejecting her de-
mands for fortificati0n could
hardly have been otherwise than
firm, as we could hardly be
party to a plan for her to seize
the territory of neutrals for pur-
poses of fertilization by her.
This added grimness to the Yu-
goslavian tragedy. II Russia
invaded Turkey and took the
Dardanelles (as she can do at
any time because she has more
troops there) she thereby would
create the first threat to w0rld
order since the war and offer
the first real case for the U. N.
