ANALYSIS
Farm Leaders Meet With GOP Group,
Outline Rural Economy Principles;
Employment Shows Greater Stability;
Red Troops Press War on Balkan Soil
_____——- by W««t MJ N«w«p p«r Union II
AGRICULTURE:
1 Postwar Policy
Meeting In Chicago with the Re-
publican party' «ubcommittee on
postwar agricultural policy, the na-
tion's outstanding form leader out-
! lined their principles for a bealuiy
rural economy.
Speaking for the American Fa-m
bureau, its president. Fdwsrd A
O'Neal called tor a crop adjustment
aystein witn mandatory commodity
loans and price supports to be ad-
ministered by a bipartisan board.
Discufsing aspects oí foreign
trade. National Grange Master A
S. Goss advocaled a two price sys-
tem. with the government author-
ized to buy up surpluses to sell in
world markets below domestic
prices, with the producer bearing
the cost. As president of the Na-
tional Milk Producers association,
John Brandt called for the impor-
tation of only those commodities we
eannot produce here.
The enlargement and strengthen-
ing of susidies and price control
measures were advocated by James
G. Patton. president of the National
Farmers Union, while incentive pay-
ments to encourage production of vi-
tal foods and fibers wore urged by
Clyde C. Edmonds, vice president
of the National Council of Farm Co-
operatives.
Crops and Stork
To increase the supply of corn to
essential industrial users, the War
Food Administration ordered coun-
try and terminal grain elevators in
Illinois, Indiana. Iowa, Minnesota
and Nebraska to set aside 60 per
ecnt of stocks Previously. WFA or-
dered a 35 per cent set aside.
After a steady rise to within 35
cento at the $14.75 ceiling, hog prices
took a drop with reports that the
government intended cutting lend-
lease purchases of canned pork and
bellies. However, it was recalled
that while the government curtailed
purchases during April of last year.
It went back into the market heavily
in May. staying there in June and
July.
In supporting the 1944 potato mar-
ket, WFA announced it would pay
■lightly higher prices ranging from
8 to 15 cents a 100 pounds above last
year. From $2.05 to |3.50 per 100
pounds will be paid tor early and
intermediate crops and 91-65 to $2.45
for lata crops.
EUROPE:
Blast Balkans
Teaming with the U. S. Eighth
Air force Ln Britain, the U. S. 15th
Air force in Italy carried on heavy
raids against Hitler's Fortress
Europe, assaulting Axis supply lines
in the Balkaqs.
As Allied ground troops sparred
with the Germans below Rome, the
15th took up the cudgels in the air.
hammering at the rail network in
Budapest, Hungary, from which
lines radiate into Germany, Jugo-
slavia and Rumania. Aircraft fac-
tories to the south of the city
•nd ballbearing plants in Steyr, Aus-
tria, also were struck.
The intensity of the Eighth Air
force's campaign agaiist western
Lurope was reflected in the an-
nouncement that 23 heavy bombing
missions were completed in March,
with an estimated 12,000 war planes
participating.
MANPOWER:
Turnover Smaller
While congress considered legisla-
tion to draft 4-Fs for essential war
work. Manpower
Commissioner Paul
V. McNutt reported
greater stabilization
of employment this
year than in 1943 in
the munitions indus-
tries.
With all younger
men in industry and
agriculture sched-
uled for Induction.
PanlV.McNatt congress studied
propossls under
which 1,000,000 4Fs now in non-
essential occupation would have the
alternative of voluntarily shifting to
war work or face drafting into mili-
tary labor battalions at service pay.
In reporting the increased stability
•f employment in munltidhs indus-
tries in January. 1944, McNutt said
that turnover decreased In 14 differ-
ent fields, and incroaaed in only four,
principally because of layoffs in the
•«plosives and small arms factories
as a result of over-production.
1st Priie—Best souvenir of
bitter Southwest Pacific fighting is
this Jap flag, captured by Marine
Pvt. Charles G. Walker of Glendale,
N. Y., during battle of Cape Glou-
cester, New Britain.
PACIFIC:
Near Philippines
As U. S. air and naval forces
pounded the approaches to the Phil-
ippines, embattled British troops
fought against enemy advances in
India.
Sailing to within 500 miles of the
Philippines, a strong U. S navy
task force struck at the far western
fringe <vf the Caroline Islands, shell-
ing Palau, Woleai and Yap and
smashing all ships in the harbors.
Farther to the south. U. S. bomb-
ers leveled the big Jap air and
shipping base of Hollandia in New
Guinea, which lies 1,000 miles to the
south of the Philippines. In one raid
alone, U. S. bombers wrecked Hol-
landia' three air strips and fired
oil and storage installations.
In India, British troops strongly
resisted Jap efforts to cut their com-
munication lines on the central
front, and break through to sever
the railroad feeding Lieut. Gen. Jo-
seph Stilwell's U. S.-Chinese forces
in norther Burma.
RUSSIA:
On Foe's Soil
With the Germans cleared from
most of the Ukraine. Russian troops
carried the war in the east to Balkan
soil, crossing over into Rumania on
a broad front, as that country's ar-
mies actively pitched into the fray
as part of Hitler's military machine.
Farther to the northwest, Hungar-
ian troops also took up stations at
the Germans' side in the Carpathian
mountains, blocking entrance into
Czechoslovakia.
As the Russians carried the war
to the enemy on his home grounds
for the first time, Finland consid-
ered new peace terms reportedly al-
lowing her retention of the naval
base of Hangoe. and agreeing to iso-
lation of German troops in the north.
Lend-Lease
U. S contributions to the Russian
war effort were reflected in lend-
lease shipments to the Soviets from
October, 1941, through February of
this year.
During this period, the U. S. sent
over 8,800 planes, 5.200 tanks and
tank destroyers, 190.000 trucks, 36.-
000 jeeps and 30.000 other military
vehicles.
In addition, shipments included
850,000 miles of field telephone wire,
275,000 field telephones, 7,000,000
pairs of army boots and an un-
specified number of locomotives and
freight cars.
In all. 2,600,000 torn. of food were
shipped.
AIRPLANE OUTPUT:
9.1 lñ in Month!
With output per worker rising in
famous U. S. mass production tech-
nique. the American aircraft indus-
try turned out the record number of
9,118 planes with a weight of 103,-
400,000 pounds in March
Exceeding over-ail production
schedules by \Vi per cent snd the
heavy bomber quota by 5 per c«nt,
the Industry topped the previous
peak of 8.760 planes et in Febru-
ary, 1944.
Of the 9,118 planes. 86.5 per cent
were combat craft of the bomber,
fighter and transport class Because
of constant changes made by mili-
tary technicians to keep abreast of
new developments in warfare, plane
output is not standardized

lion pairs of new shoe and 150 mil-
lion sets of half kolcs. This has been

*as announced.
SUPREME COURTS
Negro Vole
In an eight to one decision, the
Supreme court reversed a ruling of
1935 by declaring that Negroes were
entitled to vote in Democratic pri-
maries in Texas.
Under a state law, political parties
are permitted to determine the
qualifications of their members, and
the Democrats restricted primaries
to whites. In handing down Its de- j
cisión, the Supreme court said that;
when activities of any organisation
affect constitutional processes, then *
the state must step in to protect
the public interest.
Lone dissenter in the decision was
Justice Roberts, who said that the
court's reversal of its 1935 ruling
could only create confusion about the
stability of our institutions. The ma- ¡
Jority asserted that it was the court's ¡
privilege to review any previous j
case iti which it might have erred, j
U. S. TREASURY: |
\eiv i.oan Drive
When America's Fifth War Loan
drive gets under way June 12. the i
treasury will seek to raise 6 billion |
dollars from individuals, or ^00 mil-
lion dollars more than in the Fourth
campaiijn ended last F 'iruary. !
The total gon! of the Fifth drive
has been set at !fi billion dollars, |
2 billion dollars more than the quota •
(or the Fourth, but 730 million dol- j
tars less tnan was actually raised. '
To spur the individual bond pur- |
chases, the treasury announced it
will only ieve ¡1 the total of personal
vales during the first half of the
drive.
ARMY MEDICINE:
Fewer Heaths
Developments in medical treat-
ment sine World War I. when 156 ¡
out of 10.000 soldiers died annually ,
from disease, have cut mortalities
to only 6 out of 10.000 in the pres- j
ent conflict, army authorities re- ¡
vealed.
In addition, surgeons save 97 out i
of 100 wounded men admitted to hos-
pitals. it w as said, with air evacu- j
ation ranked with plasma and the
sulfa drugs as the chief life saver .
During World War 1. the death
rate from pneumonia was 28 per
cent, but now it is .7 of one per
cent. Whereas tuberculosis killed
17 3 per cent of victims then, only
1 8 per cent of patients die from it
now. The venereal disease admis-
sion rate has been reduced to a third
of the World War I rate.

SIBERIA:
Russ Diplomacy
Active on the military front in
Europe. Russia also busied herself,
diplomatically in the Far East, her ;
most ligniflcant move being the ter-
mination of Japanese coal and oil
leases on Sakhalin island in Siberia,
which still had 26 years to run.
Following Japan's acceptance of a
pact to curtail her Ashing operations
In Siberian waters, the Sakhalin
agreement calls for Russia's pay-
ment of $950.000 to Tokio, for all
property on the island .deluding
equipment and food. Russia will
deliver 50,000 tons of oil annualiyio
Japan for Ave yearn after the war.
Chinese troops alBgedly operating
ln the far northwestern corner of the
country, were accused by Moscow
of violating the border land of the
neighboring Mongolian republic of
Russia. Once occupied by the Reds
during which lime they built up
trade and agriculture, this north-
western corner was returned to the
Chinese in 1943, but now looms as a
bone of contention.
VEGETABLE FUEL
A process'has been perfected to
convert vegetable matter into fuel
oil, gasoline, coal or any number of
hydrocarbon compounds. Dr. Ernest
Berl of Carnegie Institute of Tech-
nology revealed.
"From 100 long ton of Louisiana
dry sugar cane, for instance." he
snid. "the new procesa will make
2.500 gallons of gasoline, 3.two gal-
lons of middle oils and 1,000 gal-
ion of lubricating oils—and still •
give the usual tight ions or su oí
