Hitler Is no great shakes as a military strategist. Every time .he has taken supreme niflitary, com mand, his armies have suffered,. But. as. a psychologist In his own particular field, as a shrewd stu dent of the GERMAN MIND, his powers must not be discounted. He KNOWS, his Germans. ,s H his intuition tpld .him that the German people had tp have a victory or they would break and go to pieces, hls Inclination would lie. to rnove heaven, and earth to provide . the victory regardless of Its physical cost.

Silesia has always been an im portant secondary German manu facturing area, exceeded only by the Ruhr and .its -adjacent, Suar valley. With the Ruhr and the Saar and the whole Industrial val ley of the Rhine under constant bombardment by our planes. It is probable that an astonishing part of the nazl war machine has been moved Into Silesia. Czechoslovakia h a .1 always been highly industrialized, with some of the greatest war plants In the world. It was largely be cause of these plants that Czecho slovakia was among the very first of, the small adjacent nations to feci the weight of Hitler's heavy hand when he was getting ready to start his battle for Europe.

Goff, chairman of the Douglas .Jfounty jPomoria Grange .Agricultural Committee, for a new normal basis on agricultural land and crop prices is in line with similar declarations from industry and business. The National Association of Manufacturers, the United Stated .Chamber of Commerce, The .National Com mittee for Economic Development arid similar organizations are seriously concerned with the same problem. . rlThe .United, States, ha? incurred a staggering national debt.' The interest, whicli must be paid annually, is ap proximately equivalent to what it cost each year to run the government prior, to the war. We must anticipate con-H tin.uatiQri .of exceedingly high. tax levels for a long period of time after, the war, or .until our national debt is materially rpdjie'ed. .Frorri all appearances, there is little expectation of debt eduction for many, many years, as the present ad "nYin titration has never practiced economy and now, plan ning,,, elaborate .public works programs for the postwar p'e'rjod, cloes, npt. seem inclined toward financial retrench ment after victory has been achieved. It appears we will go on spending more than we should. To surpbort an extravagant administration, meet interest jfm existing debt and at the same time pay back some of the money we have borrowed means we must xcontinue to maintain a high rate of taxation. But in order to pay faxes, people . must have income. We cannot expect .income, tax revenues .16 continue at present levels if profits, wages, salaries and earnings decrease. : But in spite of this fact, we find some federal authorities and agencies attempting, even now, to force down prices on .farm lands, arid profits on commodities. Charges are made that farni land prices are too high. We are told the farmer is getting too much for what he grows. ; 4t is very evident,, we believe, that any reduction in agri- culturftl values would be disastrous, not only to the farming industry but to the financial structure of the nation. Indi vidual farmers, of course, would suffer most They cannot sustairi production .when operating costs, which must in clude taxes, both. on, property arid income, are higher than .revenue. The farmer must make a profit if he is to avoid bankruptcy. During war years farmers paid off it very large propor tion., of; tti.fttaitforfnj? burden of debt accumulated during depression years.

What is happening In western Poland now is slartlingly similar to what hapiiened In eastern Po land In the last great Russian drive. The Germans lost their farthest eastern defense lines, and they had to pull back to an othor linewhich proved to be the Vistula. With their Vistula line broken, they are now heading bark to the eastern borders of the German homeland. There they will be likely to make another stand, not unlike their stand at Warsaw.
