Rumanian grain plantings had exceeded all ex- pectations. A new factory was being built in France. Belgium had signed a pact with Italy, trade. Prices for electrical current in Germany had been reduced. In the vccupied countries the Reichs- mark was cheerfully accepted and retained because people were viewing it as a stable currency. Each day, the shortwave beams to South America carried a string of little announcements such as these, apparently innocent “news” items. Taking all of these things together, it is appar- ent that Nazi propagandists were endeavoring sys- tematically to build wv the impression among their listeners of a constructive new Europe, establishing according to the Of- new enterprises, forming economic and cultural con- | nections in and with countries satisfied with German “guidance.” The idea was to make the people in South Am- erica and in the United States believe that they were throwing their effort into a [ight against a peaceful, constructive and satisfied continent. WHERE W STE HELPED The apparent lack of conservation in utilizing scrap rubber in the United States in the years pre- ceding the war, although not considered to be wise by economists, oddly enough may be a means for saving the United States now. Until a few months ago, the United States had never made any concentrated effort to save rubber. Nevertheless, scrap rubber has been used before in the production of rubber articles. Even some tire manufacturers found in pre-war days that the mix- ture of scrap rubber with crude rubber improved the quality of tires in many instances. Figures from 1938 to 1941 show that only a small percentage of reclaimed rubber was used in rubber manufacture compared with crude iubber. Crude rubber was easy to get and even cheaper in most cases. The scrap pile was overlooked. In 1941, our reclaiming plants produced 270,000 tons of reclaim compared to 775000 tons of crude. concerning | sault we may have planned against Northern Japan and block our route to Siberia. These distant landings should not be dismissed as unimportant. They constitute Japan’s first toe hold on the American continent and her first base in the Western Hemisphere. If we had occupied some of the outlying islands of the enemy's mandated area— say, in the Marshall group—the threat to Japan would be apparent to everyone, Occupation of the Aleutians is just as dangerous for us, Bomber Command In China (Cincinnati Enquirer) | China’s long struggle against Japanese aggression has been a story of masses of men fighiing with little more than their own courage and small arms against a well-equipped invader. What weapons have been dispatchéd to the Chinese have come fitfully, at best, and in woefully inadequate numbers. With Burma captured, the one important land route by which China could be supplied has disap- peared. . The alternate route from India is a combin- ation of cowpath and blueprint, and little more. Like- the west probably represents little more than an as- | piration. | The result is that China’s armies, never equipped | with the heavy implements of modern war so essén- | tial to success in the field, find themselves in a pro- gressively worse condition so far as tanks, heavy ar- tillery, and especially airplanes, are concerned. The |lack of planes is the most critical. - Np hereism on the part of the American Volunteer Group, the young Chinese pilots, and segments of the RAF, can hope to prevail against superior forces being continually reenforced. Planes are the prime need; but, for- tunately, planes can be brought to China more read- ily than other war weapons. Realizing that Britain and America are making every effort to bolster China’s power of resistance | in the air, Japan is making a desperate attempt, now, | to knock China out of the war for good. With the Chinese armies ill-equipped to stem these advances, the burden of defense must fall upon the air strength which the United Nations can muster in China’s aid. A most hopeful sign in this direction is the an- nouncement that an American bomber command has been organized in China. Whether this command has more than an administrative existence—whether | it is a physical thing with real planes and crews and supply centers—has not been divulged. If it is, the one instrument with which we can give the most help to China, not only defensively but by carrying the war to Japan proper, is being forged. Because we didn't make use of a huge pile of boost. “That was a sW Ickes. “I have many praise almost ren less.” (Continued from Page Oue) “I guess I am al ed with a different motive.
