Soviet Russia or the United states
achieves its goal in what is left Of
free Europe.
Since the Communicated Central
Union tcGD sought to cripple the
country with a general strike In De-
cember, everything has been break
ing for the United States-and fres
France. Even the weather has been
with us.
Mild Winter Helps r
1t has been the mildest January
and February in many years.
The outlook is good in industry
also, assuming Congress votes the
Marshall Plan without sharp reduce
ton. France must import raw ma
terials to operate its industries and
it needs machinery to modernize its
antiquated plants. But under the
program of its top economist, Jean
Monnet, France promises to surge
forward to recovery and provide q
bulwark Of strength in the fight
against the police -state style Of life;
which 1t loathes. Given adequate
food. raw materials and rising
production, French cabinet ofdcials
say, "the Communists can't stop U.s."
though they certainly will try. j.
But all that presupposes getting
by" the spring and that is 4 very
large if." Assuming Congress does
not pass the Marshall Plan by April
II, France will be in serious trouble
unless she can get more aid to carry
her through the extended interim
period.
The only hope is that crops this
summer should be so large that
there1l be no further need to ship
food to France. .
Gasoline, already desperately
scarce. would be cut 80 per cent, the
French government has informed
the American Government. Many
industries, it warns, would be Grip
pied by lack of nonferrous metals,
with copper supply down so per cent,
lead 40 per cent, zinc 20 per cent,
chrome SO per cent and nickel so per
cent.
France could get no carbon black,
which would close down her tire
industry, according to this report.
1t would get no electrodes and would
lose IS per cent of her sulphur sup
ply-and all her resin and sisal.
Precisely how many this would
throw out of work cannot be fig
ured exactly but the estimate is
that 2,000, 900 would be affected by
either short hours or no job. At the
same time the lack of food imports
would increase demand for other
foods, squeeze diets below present
low levels and make prices even
higher than at present inescapabie.
1t would certainly, American and
French economists believe, touch of1
a period of strikes and turmoil that
would reverse the trend against
Communists now clearly apparent
play directly into the Kremlin's
hands and shatter the foundation
of the Marshall Plan recovery before
it could get started.

The program, heard over WMAI

cast from Constitutional Hall to-
night, in conjunction with the

The play chosen for the event
this year is ''The Barretts of VIM

formance" at this event.
The pre-broadcast, ceremonies at

tai, Irving S. Olds, chairman of the
board, United States Steel and
Basil O'Connor, national president
of the American Red Cross. For
mer Ambassador Joseph c.. Grew
will preside at the ceremonies.
Miss Carroll is a most likely choice
for the leading role, in the Theater
Guild on the Air play on this occa-
sion. She has done a great deal OF
Red Gross work and Recently was
in Washington to receive the Civil
ian Medal of Freedom for her war
time work with French orphan chill
