Heintzleman’s suggestion that the Department of Agriculture might do well in looking into the pos- sibilities of developing beef cattle raising in the defense areas of the Territory certainly carries with it the romantic implication of jingling spurs, huge herds of “doggies” and hot branding ijrons. The romance of cattle camps may come to Alas- ka along with the beef herds, but right now, to several cattlemen of the western states who are interested in the prospects of ranging beef cattle on the grasslands of the Interior, the idea is 100 percent & business venture. Button, Button (The Cleveland Plain Dealer) The juvenile game of “button, button, who's got the button” has become a matter for international statesmanship. The bulk of the world’s pearl shell for buttons comes from French Indo-China. Since the war the natives have been so upset that they have not en- gaged in their customary occupation 'of -diving for shells. There exists a shortage so dangerous that a solution must be found at once. Consider for a moment what may happen if this problem is not solved. Japan, with the connivance of Vichy France which has already lost its shirt and doesn’t need buttons, has gone button hunting in Indo-China, If the Indo-Chinese do not start diving may be an inclination to argue and even to quarrel.

Walmsley is charm- ing and well-intentioned, but what he doesn’t know about the problems of civil defense is plenty. Also, when LaGuardia took over the agency he announced that state governors would be in charge of aivil defense activities locally. This was good strategy to secure state cooperation. But then he turned around and started giving the as- signments to mayoral friends about the country, which has irked the governors. Some of them have sent hot protests to the White House. Meanwhile some members of a citizens Cooperation Committee that LaGuardia appointed are privately wondering what it is all about. Sev- eral weeks ago they were summoned to. Washington for a “conference,” staged in the White House and at- tended by Mrs. Roosevelt. The affair was surrounded with deep sécrecy, but actually nothing took place and committee members departed’ for their “homes completely mystified. The committee hasn’t done a thing since. STATE DEPARTMENT ON RUSSIA The Peace Mobilization pickets who quit their vigil in front of the ‘White House immediately after Hit- ler invaded Russia, were not the only ones caught short by the war in the east. Equally embarrassed was Assistant Secretary of State Adolf NOTE: Berle is nicknamed “Hap Hopper” of the State Department because unofficially he heads the department’s new detective bureau. JULY PLANE FIGURES Preliminary July figures for air- plane production show another back- ward month, the second since April. Total of military planes produced in July was 1460—a drop of 16 from the June all-time high of 1476. In May the figure slumped below the April total, which was the record up to then. 5 Primary reason for the July de- cline, according to OPM experts, was a shortage of certain delicately cali- brated flying instruments. The ex- perts say that actually more planes were turned out in July than June, but without instruments they could not be completed for delivery. Various reasons are given for this instrument- bottleneck; shortage of lapor, materials, new designs, lack of tools. - THe May slump was charged up to labor troubles. Whatever the reasons, -U. S. aircraft production has yet to top the 1500-a-month mark so confidently predicted by OPM moguls months ago. Hdwever, the experts now prophesy a 1600 output this month—provided instrument deliveries come through. ‘They base this on the backlog of un- finished planes in July, plus an in- crease in plant production. But, they -admit, their guess. may be wrong, as it has been in the past. * NEGRO HOUSING John Carmody, Federal Work Ad- ministrator, took a trip to the Pitts- worth?” “Pive thousand dollarsgan acre.’ Carmody turned upon them in amazement. “Wash it up!” he ex- claimed. “Wash it up, we don’t wnm it1” And he transferred the Nezru housing development to a new ares of land away from the river. NOTE: Carmody is taking on in- creased power with every new de- fense development. Latest to come| under his direction is the $320,000,000 appropriation for immediate con- struction of roads for national’ defi fense. (Copyright, 1941, by United P‘nture Syndicate, Inc.)
