Ufeated the German radio to
fanatical Nazi rigirguord-s resisting
the U. S. and, British drives to the
^Reich's western frontier:
’ "Every day gained now amounts
to a reinforcement* of our national
strength for the defense of the Reich
‘itsyf. .”
Partly because of such resistance,
partly because the fast-moving Al-
lied armies had outrun their length-
ening, supply lines, the U. S, and
British thrusts in the Lowlands and

tni
ng momentum. •,
Fighting was particularly
heavy in northeastern Belgium
before the fortfe'sg city of Liege
and In the rugged Ardennes for- *
«st, and directly to the east of
Paris, where American troops
drew up along the Moselle river,
for an assault dli Nazi defenses
guarding the rici^ industrial
Saar basin. . *
Mounted thickly in the precipitdus,
wooded heights east of the Moselle,
the German artillery ' maintained
a steady' drumfire against doughty
U. S. troops seeding to establish
drm ’ bridgeheads across the river,
Farther to the-south, Lieut. Gen.
Alexander Patch's Seventh army,
driving up from the Mediterranean
for a juncture with Lieut. Gen.
George Patton’s Third army along
the Moselle, drove on the Belfort
gap, the low lying plane between
the Vosges mountains of France and
Swiss border leading into Germany.
.Costly Fighting
Reflecting the strong pressure the^
. Russians were exerting to the nuFtll-
_e«st of Warsaw, the Germans ac-
knowledged their withdrawal across
■ ti)e Narew river, ", , . to avoid the
danger of'a .Russian breakthrough

*>«■” y
In withdrawing across the Narew,
the Nazis continued their policy of
economizing their. forced1 by giving
ground when the superior weight of
their opponent promised td grind
down their manpower.
Because of the proximity of the
Russians to German solly however,
the Nazis no longer were free to
make wholesale withdrawals, but
now faedd bloody front-line fighting.

I'll take up in a minute, but
like'"to say a little more
about Nelson. I have gleanid my
views from no .key-hole peeping, no
rifling of Mr. Nelsonls files, but from
those who know him well, plus some
"of my ovflli observations.
There are two reasonsr-why -J-be-
lieve Mr. Nelson wants ,ta stay in
government.
One is partly psychological and
has to do with what has happened to
JVelson's own attitude.toward gov-
ernment. which his closest friends
have watched develop. The other
has to do with this idea of "expan-
sionism," definition of which entails
a number of facts and figures, rorrie
of which may startle you as they
did me when 1 saw them assembled
.for-the first tttreuand horl.tMiem.yire-
fillly checked and double-checked.
.They reveal strikingly Vhnt. the eco-
nomic problem is which this country
•is facing and which so far it seems
Ill-prepared to meet.

strange statistics about business, big ,
and little. The most Striking of all
to me is this: retail trade, in spite
of all the-difficulties in its path, had
an increase of'dollar virtues inhales, I
of more than 50 per cent- in, 1943
over 1939—department of commerce
statistics NbSW $42,D42.0(10,000 for
1939—$03,208,000,000 for 1943. that is
expansion under difficulties. * ‘AP.
And here is'another:"the depart-
ment of labor figures revcaj that
from 1939 t<T 1943 the average yearly
ejnployment Showed a decrease of
only one-tenth of ! per cefif.
.In the field of agriculture, al-
though the farm production has
nearly doubled, the farm population
has decreased nearly 40 per cent—
more expansion. *——-»--—
What do these figures mean? That
the productive capacity has been in-
creased tremendously,,not only' in
the war industries but-ln consumer
goods, and the expansionist believes
that What has been done can be con-
tinued provided,, that obstacles are
removed. ,
In addition to this revelation of
the nation’s highest productive ca-
pacity-r-r^member that there’ate 11
or 12 million men in the armed
forces, 11 million more in civilian
industry than before,the war and 3
nyllion in government.
The 11 million in. private industry
Vnust keep tftpir jobs, and jobs in
business, big and small, must be
found for those discharged fr£m the
armed sprvicci, plus-some released
from government work.
To achieve this, according to Nel-
son, ^he country must go expansion-
ist, must iurtheY* ev.ery means of
expanding production.
The contractionist, 'he" says,- al^"
though he natufaily pAns, hopes and
works for expansion- in his own busi-
ness, does not always see the impor-
tance of expansion in all businesses,
especially in those which • compete
with him.
. If Donald Nelson has the opportu-
nity. he is willing to go ahead do-
ing his part.to.help expand industry,
big , and little. It remains to be
seen whither leads the ’ road (rbm
