Saturday they caught one sal

Groups Being Formed
To Assure Output
OF Defense Items
BY III. A,soeia,.d Pres. +

The Office of Defense Mobili-
cation is setting up q dozen in
dustry committees to help work
out details Of plan for crack
ing potential bottlenecks in ma
chine tools and other critical
defense items.
One phase Of a broad program
for industrial defense expansion,
to be announced soon by Mobil-
izer Arthur s. Flemming, is the
establishment of q Federal prof.
ect called advance purchase for
resale"-in effect. Government
stockpiling of party finished
products which would be sold to
military contractors in wartime.
While Federal loans. guaran-
tees of private loans, and other
indirect forms of Government
help may be employed, the pro-
gram does not envisage outright
Government construction of
standby plant capacity.
What is wanted is a ready
reserve of items like steam boil
ers. turbines. and large shapes
and forms of steel and other
metals for which military de-
mand. in a full mobilization.
would instantly zoom beyond ci-
william production capacity.
Fourth Major Step.
The new program is the fourth
major step in a long-range eff
fort. begun in 1851, to identify
and I'LL in the gaps in the coun-
try's industrial base for all-out
war.
The first step was the prep
aration of "wanted-list" of L.
600 types of weapons and NUM-
tionS items as they would be
needed in each of the first three
years of a war.
The second was the translation
of this list of tanks. planes and
other munitions into tonnages of
metals and estimates of needed
parts such as motors. castings
and forgings.
The third step was the match
ing of these military needs
against the country's prospective
ability to produce them under
wartime conditions.
Seeks to Fill Gaps.
The fourth phase is an effort
to fill the gaps by encouraging
industry to build and install
additional capacity. or to stock
pile enough of the critical COM
ponentS to last until new capac-
ity could be built after M-day.
In cases where there is no
civilian use whatever for the ex-
banded plant capacity. ODM
would authorize Government
purchase of partly-fabricated
materials and tools.
These would be stored in Local
tions safe from atomic attacks
and fed out to defense producers
as needed to keep war produce
ton rolling while new plants
were being built.

Hundreds of volunteers, United

close gaps appearing at Deg

United States helicopters stood
by to fly more sandbags to the
critical areas. The copters and
Army boats have rescued more
than 500 persons since the floods
began.
Austrian Chancellor Julius
Raab, appealing for all possible
help, toured the stricken areas
of lower Austria between Linz

that in many areas the crops
were entirely DESTROYED.

sy he A..esia..d Pres.

Secretary Of the Treasury
Humphrey will take figures to
the Senate Finance Committee
this week in q new effort to con-
vince the Senator'S that the
Treasury needs q higher debt
ceiling than the present SITS bill
lion.
Specifically he will ask for
Senate approval Of q bill passed
by the House last year which
would raise the ceiling by SIS
billion, making the legal limit
$3.50 billion. Right now the
Treasury is in debt to the extent
of $270, 621 .082, 586.73. 1t also
owes an additional $544,568,-
043.83 which is not counted as
part Of the debt subject to statu-
tory limit.
Senator Byrd, Democrat. Of
Virginia. who successfully led
the opposition to an increase
last year. has Softened up only
to the extent of saying he would
favor granting an increase Of
only as much as the Treasury
could prove "incontestablyn it
had to have to pay the Nations
bills.
This appeared to indicate
that chances for getting APP
proval of q SIS billion increase
are not good.
There have been suggestions
that Congress could meet the
problem by exempting more Of
the debt from the statutory
limit instead Of by lifting the
ceiling. One such suggestion has
been to exempt some or all Of
the $40 billion in Federal debt
carried by Federal trusts, such
as social security.
A year ago, the Treasury said
it needed SIS billion leeway
and that it was opposed to
"gimmicks" like exempting parts
of the debt. Nowadays. this talk
is no longer heard around the
Treasury.
The winter months are the
tough ones in the debt problem.
Tax collections are low In that
period. but Government SPEND
ing goes on. So the Treasury has
to do a lot of temporary short
term borrowing which is repaid
when heavy tax collections come
in the spring. 1t is this tenn
porary borrowing that pincheS.
According to the administra-
tons budget plans for the pres
ent fiscal year. which opened
July /, the debt will rise only
about $2.25 billion between now
and next June 80.
Since the Treasury started the
fiscal year with q debt subject
to the statutory limit of about
$270.75 billion, the remaining
$4.25 billion of borrowing author
ity would easily accommodate
the years projected net borrow
ing.
But. the Treasury has an
income months, 1t must borrow
about $40 billion this summer
and fall. That would run the

Food and Clothing
Sent 10 Thousands
In Danube Flood
BY the Associated Press

VIENNA, July 12.-Relief sup
plies for thousands of homeless
victims of Central Europe's worst
flood in centuries poured into
stricken Austria and Germany
today.
Holland. Sweden, Switzerland
and the Saar were the first to
offer bedding, food and clothes
to thousands of families made
homeless by the raging Danube
and a dozen tributaries. Their
five-day rampage has claimed
at least "a lives on both sides
of the Iron Curtain.
The aid began to arrive as
rescue workers struggled to
reach submerged Austrian and
German towns where inhabitants
were still stranded on rooftops
and upper floors. More than
5000 American soldiers have
been taking part in the rescue
work.
Sketchy reports from Czecho-
slovakia and Hungary indicated
those two Danube Valley coun-
tries have been hard hit by the
floods. Prague and Budapest
radios said Communist authori-
ties had ordered entire farm
communities evacuated and that
many hamlets were under water
and crops destroyed.

Communist East Germany.
In West Germany. skies
cleared and flood water began to
subside, but thousands Of acres
of rich farmland were still un-
der water. Countless houses.
bridges and industrial plants
were damaged some beyond
repair.
In the venerable town of
Passau, surrounded by the Dam
ube, Inn and liz rivers, houses
and streets were submerged be-
meath the flood waters which
have inundated at least a third
of the community. An estimated
1000 were homeless in Passau
alone.
While the worst seemed over
in Germany. the churning Dam
ube forced thousands more vic
TINS from farms and villages
along its banks in Austria.
The steel city ,of Linz, where
$4,000 persons have been evac-
uated. desperately attempted to
stem the tide of destruction. Po-
lice and firemen were still rescu-
ing hundreds from rooftops and
upper floors.
Night and Day Operation.
Both Linz and Passau looked
like war-Stricken cities. Hundreds
of fire engines, radio cars, am
phibious vehicles and boats piled
the streets night and day carry
ing on rescue work.
Nearly 40 water soaked houses
sank beneath the flood crest at
Linz. More than $50 persons
were still marooned IN houses
along the Danube Quays., Linz
