Good Crops Ease
Europe's Food Crisis

LONDON.-European farmers reaped
the harvest of full year of peace this
month. Their crops promised the conti-
nent an alienation, but not an end, Of
the war-born food shortage.
Heavy rains in the British Isles and
excessive drought in the Balkans upset
some calculations of bumper yields, but,
in general, prospects were good. British
farmers strove to save their flattened
grain with scythe and sickle Greek
farmers harvested their fields by hand.
Multiple combines rolled across the
great plains of Russia.
Somewhat diverse were the peoples
food prospects. Britain, despite crop
disappointments, was expected to end
bread rationing soon: Russia, with gen.
orally good crops, was expected to re-
tain it.
AS Associated Press correspondents
throughout Europe made their reports,
grain was sprouting in the stocks" in
rain-sodden British fields and barley
flattened by summer storms was grow
ing green again. Disease damaged po-
tato fields. underscored possibility Of
shortage of that vital crop. Pasture
was exceptionally good and cattle and
sheep had done fairly WELL
In Fire, too, September unleashed
almost continuous and torrential rains
after the wettest August in a decade
and volunteer harvest hands were fight
ing to save what had been expected to
be a record harvest. 1t was estimated
that 100000 tons of imports would be
needed to maintain the 80 per cent -four
extraction. No cut in liquor exports
was foreseen, however, and there was
expected to be suficient barley for
brewing and distilling. Fire anticipated
the usual surpluses in meat, poultry
and eggs.

contracts let by the various services.
The board, moreover, wants industry
to prepare plans for rapid expansion of
production and, where necessary, to pro-
duce and store away any materials or
tools which it will need If it must turn
suddenly to war production.
Making such plans and procuring such
items, however, would involve expense
to industry. Deupree points out that
little can be done along this line until
Congress provides funds for the purpose.
Industry is giving us splendid CO.
operation" Deupree told me.
They feel, as I do, that the better
prepared we are for industrial mobiliza-
ton, the less likely we are to be at
tackled. A good mobilization plan will
help to prevent war"
The stockpiling of strategic and criti-
cal materials is also one of the boards
responsibilities. It is now directing
purchases with $100,00OO00 appropri-
ated by the last Congress It plans to
buy $2,000.000000 worth of the scarce
materials within the next five years.
Deupree says the board will need $780,
100000 more this year to keep its pro-
gram up to schedule.
In its stockpiling the board is making
a studied effort to obtain bargains and
it is keeping its operations as secret as
possible so as not to disturb market
conditions. About $500, 600, 900 worth of
materials will be available from surplus
property, Deupree says, but where such
material is critical to civilian economy
it is being released to industry
Also under board is the disposition of
Government-owned defense plants. The
chief problem here is keeping strings
on those plants and facilities which
would be needed in case of mobilization
Donald M. Nelson. former War Produc-
tion Board chairman, Is surveying the
Evening star., 1946-09-29

The Army and Navy Munitions Board
received a directive from the President
shortly after the surrender of Japan
to begin work on an industrial rnobil-
zation plan. Deupree, president Of
Proctor & Gamble Co., was appointed
chairman April /, 1916.
The board, composed of Deupree,
Undersecretary of War Royal and As
sistant Secretary of the Navy Kenney,
is now drafting a manual for the or
ganization of war production board
or similar agency. It will give detailed
instructions for system designed to
At business and industry into a war
program.
In addition to preparing this manual,
says Deupree, the board is drawing up
plans to mobilize and control all types
of industrial activities essential to de-
tense and to set up any other agencies
required for total mobilization of the
civilian economy.
The intention Of the board is to keep
all phases Of the plan continually under
revision to keep pace With scientific and
industrial changes.
Deupree says the board also is seek
ing to anticipate the bottlenecks and
shortages which would impede war pro-
duction and to take immediate steps
to avoid them. It is investigating tools,
machinery and raw materials and is
arranging as far as possible to procure
them before an emergency arises.
The boards program includes keeping
in production at all times small guam
tieis of the newest weapons, equipment,
airplanes and so forth. Prototypes of
new items can thus be produced and
tested and finished blueprints can be
furnished to manufacturers as soon as
mobilization begins. A small amount
of such production for war materials
is now going on. says Deupree. under

By Clarke Beach

The United States has no industrial
mobilization plan today. If suddenly
faced with new national emergency,
the only practicable course would be
to revive a modified system of produc-
ton controls such as was in effect a
year ago.
Richard r. Deupree, chairman of the
Army and Navy Munitions Board. made
these statements In an exclusive inter
view. He told me, however. that he
and his board are at work on an indus
trial mobilization plan which will be
completed some time in 1947."
If, meanwhile, the Army and Navy
had to be modified for war, the process
of industrial mobilization would require
about one year.
That statement comes from 1t. Gen.
LIE Roy Lutes, the War Departments
director Of Service. Supply and Pro-
curement.
Everything could start rolling in that
time" the general said. There would
be full production within Is months"
FTeSent StocKS OF surplus war mate-
rials, however, would provide most of
the equipment the armed forces would
need before new production could be
started.
Highly placed officers estimate the
Navy would be amply supplied for about
nine months. the Army for year. Army
Air Forces leaders. however, believe they
could mobilize and train personnel
faster than aircraft could be supplied.
The industrial mobilization job could
be done faster than in the last war,
Lutes believes, because for the next few
years we shall have available the veteran
industrial, military and governmental
leaders who obtained the "know-how"
through experience in the last war.

Socialist Members Expelled.
Just as today we have the Rankin

the Reds and even the Pinks, in 1919
we had the Lusk Committee of the New
York Legislature investigating "seditious
radicalism." At the committees behest,
the Legislature expelled all i've of its
Socialist members. The Legislatures

situation and preparing to advise the
board regarding standby plants.
The Government formerly owned
about 1,000 war plants. 1t has disposed
of all but about 400, and Deupree says
the status of these will be settled within
a month The Government, in addition,
owns portions of plants and facilities
which are tied in with private industry.
There are about 1900 in this category
Of scrambled facilities as Deupree
calls them.

Atom Bomb Seems Remote.
Carefully he wipes the bar with a
towel. A dignifled man wearing the
conference insigne on his lapel is
standing at the far end, lighting a
cigar.
YES SIR says the bartender. For
you?"
1t is not, for instance, the thought
of the atomic bomb which underlies
the weary resignation here. The
bomb, so far as can be seen, has
made no impression on the mass
consciousness. 1t is an infinitely
remote concept. like whether there
are men on. Marshall joke, half
mystery, in any case not worth a
practical second thought. If the
Bikini tests were supposed to help
the world appreciate the Implications
of this new force, they completely
failed to do so here. AS Paris saw it,
the whole business was unimpressive
to the point of being funny.
1t is not easy to put your finger
on the lost, defeated quality that
his city has today-the feeling that
you absorb from it's people that the
world is drifting out with the tide
1t is hard because the pessimism here
is not, as might be expected, founded
on a greater awareness of the trou-
bles and problems ahead than exists
in the Western Hemisphere. There
is much less awareness of the true
situation here, and the fact that
these people give in without even
comprehending what they are up
1gainst makes them seem all the
lore lost. Theirs is not concrete
ear coupled, as ours is, with the
hought that something must be done
} bring under control the things
mat are feared. They simply appear
TO have no more belief in the worlds
ability to go on as it has been going,
nor faith in its chances of improving,
nor hope that things. somehow o.
other, will work themselves out.
Frustrated Cinderella.
And it Is hard to pin down this
mood for another reason, which is
that it does not show on the familiar,
superficial surface of life. 1t lies be-
meath the surface, revealing itself
only occasionally. Yet every time
you get beneath the surface you find
it there.
Today Paris is frustrated
Cinderella, trying half-heartedly to
have normally good time before
the clock strikes 12-trying, but not
succeeding, because this is not ball
and there is no music.
The sidewalk cafes are as crowded
