THE Los Angeles Times carried a little eyecatcher story the other day to the effect that Paris has just shipped in 900 tons of butter from Argentina. (Trying to visualize 900 tons of butter Is a little like trying to imagine a trillion. Which, oddly enough', calls to mind the fact that the national debt of the Unit ed States is now a little in excess of a quarter of a trillion dollars.) Tho spend-with-both-hands boys have finally hit the Jackpot. They have pushed the national debt up into the realm of astronomical figures where trying to under stand it is like striving to form a mental picture of distances measured in millions of light years. When more billions of govern ment expenditure are proposed, we taxpayers Just shrug our shoulders and mutter: "Aw, what the heck." lUT,to get back to tho Times' Story of the shipment of Ar- dentine butter to Paris. Tho cor respondent simulated the raising of a gentle eyebrow by remark ing that it seemed a trifle odd to be shipping buttor from tho Ar gentine when Normandy, only a stone's throw away, as stone throwing goes in Europe, Is prac tically floating in dairy products. He- ended up by suggesting that the' black marketeers might be able to throw light on the oddity If they were willing to talk (which they naturally are not), A GREAT many GIs have seen Normandy. They will romem bet it as a fat land, liberally sprinkled with cows, and will re call that only a part of it was devastated in the fighting. Every now and then a shell would fall on a cow which was a pity, for when a shell falls on a cow disgustingly little good moat Is left In tho vicinity. The writ ten records are ha.y on tho point, but word of mouth tales were loose in Europe last year to the effect that from timo to time Normandy cows were killed by the accidental discharge of Amer ica!) weapons. (By a strange co incidence, weapons seemed to be more liable to tho phenomenon of accidental discharge under the conditions prevailing when fat cows and hungry GIs wero adja cent to each other.) All this, of course,' is mere source material which if sided carefully by meticulous research ers might yield nuggets of fact. 11 would bo charitable to presume that the cows of Normandy were so depleted in numbers by falling shells and bombs and the acciden tal discharges of weapons already referred to that they are no long er 'capable of supplying nearby Paris with butter. ' THESE same GIs, however, will also recall that the people of Normandy thought no more of a franc than you or I would think of a quarter-section of good land. So It may be that they have been tempted by evil black marketeers and are selling their good butter nt fantastically high black mar ket prices Instead of disposing of it ,at ruinous rationed prices. It Is deplorable what war and Its hand maidens, scarcity and In flation, can accomplish In the way of debasing public morals. Let us hope that the noble Ideal ists who are seeking to lead us along the bright and shining paths of a regimented economy do not hear of It. It might shock their simple, trusting faith In the gytMtoI !iilinmiui4ii,e.vfc 1 CUT RATE By CHARLES Federal controls succeed 'principally in reducing- quality of goods and services, yet constant effort is made to extend regimentation, Among' chief issues today are the proposed valley authorities and socialized medicine. In the light of experience, what reason have trols in these two matters would be any less .failures than those now imposed? Do we want our progress peded by bureaucratic regulation, just at a time when we are entering a period of great progress? Of course, we are told that the" Columbia Valley Authority would promote'a virtual Garden of Eden. But can anyone show a single federal con trol that has improved previously existing conditions? We are told that by socialization of our medical program, we would obtain health care at virtually no expense. But are we gullible enough to believe that such system would oper ate more effectively in providing medical care and treatment than the existing incentive system? These grandiose schemes of our economic and social ex perimenters sound wonderful belies propaganda. Even yet the OPA feeds us line" on prices and controlling inflation, despite the continu ing advance in cost of living. But disregarding price advances, let's take a look at what we're getting. Clothing materials are shoddy. Meats, when available, are of low grade. Milk is not only far below state standards, but is, in some instances, actually dangerous to health. Lumber mills are cutting vast quantities of second growth fir timber because they can get nearly .equal price for a knotty, poor grade stick as for clear, old-growth ma terial. Practically every controlled item has been advanced in price and reduced id quality. In other words, controls have not produced efficiency. As a war measure, the federal government set up control over wages. Has the result been efficient? We have been plagued by unceasing succession of strikes, disputes, slow downs, etc., with settlement unduly prolonged by govern mental interference. In a great majority of strikes the main issue involves some federal procedure or formula. . Wage controls have not been efficient. . We are in dire need of increased production. The short ages of goods and commodities are critical. During tho war wo saw an industrial machine engaged in a miracle of pro duction. Yet, here in a period of dangerous shortage, we find reconversion slowed to a walk and production lagging far behind capacity. The federal government has production agencies and authorities running the alphabetical gamut. But we are not getting efficiency in production. Now the federal government wants to take in hand the development of tho Pacific Northwest through its proposed Columbia Valley Authority. It tells us our pastures will be g;recnor, then will bq more fish in our streams, and Jhnt wo'll'havo a virtual Utopia. But telling and doing are two different things, as experience proves. Tho record for efficiency does not bear out the claims of propagandists and, unless we would put shackles on our development and reduce our medical profession to a tread mill status, we should order an end to further experimenta tion regarding these issuos.

HERE'S THI1 Master Wli Willi jf g Men's Suits May Continue Scarce Until '48, Outlook WASHINGTON, May 8 UP) CPA Chief John D. Small's gloomy forecast that men's suits may remain scarce into 1948 to day overshadowed industry sug gestions on how to increase out put 10 to 30 per cent. The Civilian Production ad ministrator slapped the govern ment's cards on the table in ob serving to suit producers: "Anything we do now can alle viate the situation and help meet the unprecedented demand for suits. However, if that demand continues it may be a year or two before the situation is nor mal again." After Small made this state ment to manufacturers, other CPA officials told reporters they expect no slackening in demand for many months. In the face of this outlook, CPA took time out to mull over manufacturers' recommendations for stepping un Droduction Quick ly. At a meeting Thursday the agency will discuss further what to do about these problems out- imea Dy proaucers: 1. An acute shortage of cotton fabric for Dockets. CPA said man. ufacturers had reported "lots of suits faying uniinisned on shelves because we cant get pocket ma terials." 2. A shortage of ravon linines, 3. Need for more woolen and worsted cloth if full use is to be made of available manpower and macninery. As for the latter point, CPA said manufacturers estimate they could jump suit production by two to six million suits a year if they had all the cloth they can use.
