Mr. Roosevelt began by 1\1k|.u, of “a second bill of rights,” “an American bill of rights.” The “most fundamental” right on this would be the “right to a useful and remunerative job.” Others were “the right to a de- cent home, to a good education, to good medical ca Daily Alaska Em pire Published every evening except Sunday by the EMPIRE PRINTIN MP.

But the American people will| not accept mass unemployment ‘or mere makeshift | | work." The implication here is that if mass unemploy- | | ment oceurs, it must be the fault of private enterpr and not, say, of unsound governmental policies which | prevent private enterprise from functioning. The | President then puts forward the remarkable proposal |that the Government should share part of the risks | of loss from private ventures—which would mean that all of us would have pay for the mistakes made by individuals seeking Yo increase their own profits. | | “Our full employment program,” continues Mr. | Roosevelt, quires the extensive development of our | natural resources and other useful public works.” He | | then talks of constructing thousands of airports, of | overhauling “our entire national highway system,” of great housing projects, of an expanded Social Seeurity program, health and education programs. On the | other hand, “we must, after the war is over, reduce or eliminate taxes which bear too heavily on con-‘ sumption.” A | AIRPLANE I’R()I)IT('TI(}N According to a recent announcement from the War Production Board, the United States last year turned out a total of 96,369 airplanes of all classes for mili- tary use. This is considerably above the 1943 total of 85,946, but is below the quota set at the first of the year—a’ quota which called for 109,000 ships. Most significant single item in the report was the weight total of airplanes produced. This figure was 50 per cent above weight totals of 1943 and reflects even greater production gains than would be seen in a study of unit totals only. It indicates, too, that possible alterations in the pattern of Allied strategy might have brought a slight cut in 1944 unit produc- tion. The weight figures show that the United States toward longer bombing and fighter runs; that the d of tremendous production of light trainer ships is over. In the war in the Pacific where most of our forces will be concentrated, long-range bomb- ings will he necessary—more necessary than in the earlier days of the European War, when we had bases This program implies, on the one hand, Bovsrn- ment spending on a scale far higher than that even | of the prewar deficit period and, on the othér hand, | a substantial lowering of taxes from present levels. |The probable result of this would be an indefinite continuation of deficits on top of our unpumllt-]ed‘ war debt. How, under such circumstances, could inflation be kept under any sort of control? President optimistically believes that “Through a program of this character we can maintain a national | income high enough to provide for an orderly re- in near-by England. Allied strategists have discovered, | tirement of the public debt along with reasonable reduction.” It was precisely such an expectation too, that bombings can be much more efficient, and |that was disappointed all during the decade before losses much lower, when long-range fig)?u)r& €an | oy eptrance into the war.
