i MERE Is a bit of flat, unpaintcd
II truth:
In all the history of the world,
; there was perhaps never a
greater outpouring oi good will
on the part of one people toward
another than that which, during
and following the shooting war,
Americans directed toward Rus
sians. - -We
admired their grim, un-
; yielding courage. We were Im
pressed by their devotion to their
country and their willingness to
make ANY needed sacrifice for
i It. And in those scrambled first
; weeks after the shooting ended
we LIKED them when we tame
: face to face with them.
According to our standards,
: they were a crude lot, to be sure,
but In an Intangible, Indefinable
way they HAD SOMETHING.
; We're still not so old and de
cadent and falsely polished as to
have forsotten that our trappers
and Indian fighters who won the
. West might not have been re
garded as impeccable In a London
Dr Paris drawing room.
IT is one of the great tragedies
I of hiBtory that this original and
? GENUINE exchange of good will
. (for those who saw It will bear
witness that the Russians rather
liked US, too) has been permitted
to deteriorate to its present
Etatus.
No one In full possession of his
senses can believe that America
has been solely responsible for
the deterioration. We have dono
our best to be friends, but we
have been SNUBBED.
The snubbing has come from
the upper brackets In Russia.
BUT let's get on with the news
which 1s mixed, as usual.
China's civil. war flames anew
In the dispatches. Despite the fact
that every common, plug China
man wants peace more than he
wants anything else on earth, the
armies of both factions are mov
ing up to new battle positions.
It is another stark tragedy.

CROWN PRINCESS JULIANA
of The Netherlands is preg
nant again, and the Dutch are re
ported to be all twittered up with
hope that this time it will he a
boy. (Three times In a row they
have been In a flutter, and each
time It has been a girl.) -
MONARCHY is a curious Institu
tion, whose roots reach far
back Into the fundamentals of
human nature. It seems to be ele
mental to want a KING If you're
to have a RULER.
' Yet history tells us very plainly
Indeed that SELDOM have queens
soaked the earth In the blood that
flows from wars of conquest and
aggression, whereas OFTEN that
has been the fruit of KINGship.
In fact, It Isn't too far from
historical truth to assert that
EVERY king who has got too
much power into his hands lias
turned to attempted world con
quest. MOTE, please, that all these
"fuehrers" and "duces" and
"el caudillos" and whatever it
may be that the Russians call
tlielr Communist Hig Wampum
have been MEN -not women.
Note also that In the !( years
since a KING sat on their throne
the Dutch have been peaceful and
Industrious and (when their
crazy neighbors would let them)
reasonably happy.
SPEAKING of women, Dr. Hope

THE PRODUCTION OUTLOOK
By CHARLES V. STANTON
Many-persons apparently find it difficult to reconcile
statements that production is at an all-time high with their
lirsthand knowledge of current shortages in nearly all lines
of manufactured goods. Production statistics show that
industry is turning out merchandise in unprecedented quan
tities. Unemployment is exceedingly low. Yet we cannot
find materials with which to build homes. We cannot obtain
many types of clothing. . Household furnishings and all
types of appliances are in short supply. And we are told
that no relief is in prospect for many months.
We are told that production is being retarded while, at the
same time, statistics show more production tha.n ever before.
Cut these apparently contradictory factors are easily recon
ciled when the great world-wide need for consumer goods is
analyzed.
The lumber industry, with which we .are most familiar
in this area, is a good example. Because wage controls
placed the industry at a disadvantage in competing for labor,
men skilled, in woods and mill work went into other, better
paid lines of work. Unrealistic pricing and controls on
output places limitations on production. Despite the great
demand for lumber, production in the Pacific Northwest
has been dropping sharply.
But our need for homes is not a new thing. The fact
that we have a nationwide emergency in the home and
commercial building field results from the fact that people
now have money with which to build and are making up for
more than 20 years of non-building.
Construction dropped to an exceedingly low level during
the depression years. About the only building of any im
portance was that financed by the federal government in
the form of public works,. People had no money with which
to build homes. Neither could they buy electric ranges,
refrigerators, household furnishings, or more than a limited
supply of clothing. During the entire period of depression
our market lor consumer goods was at a bare existence
level. During the war period, production was turned to
materials of war. People accumulated money but, as con
sumer goods were not being produced, they could not build
homes, replace worn-out furniture, expand the family ward
robe, etc.
Only a few years ago the "Okies" and the "Arkies" were
symbols of abject poverty. But today those same people are
well employed and many are making more money in a
month than they were able to obtain in a year during the
hard times era. The laboring class, in general, has advanced
its standard of living many degrees, a condition wo hope
will be permanent Thousands upon thousands of people,
who for many years used boxes for furniture and slept on
homemade beds, are customers today for davenports, fancy
bedroom suites, quality mattresses and the best of house
hold appliances. Thus our market for consumer goods has
been vastly multiplied, in addition to the increased demand
resulting from years of shortages.
A largtt portion of our current production is going into
exports, but there is one form of export which rccefves little
mention. The United States has in the neighborhood, of
twelve million foreign-born residents. These people have
relatives in war-torn homelands. Adding to our direct
exports are the millions of packages of food, clothing and
supplies being shipped by individual residents to their kin
abroad.
Many other factors enter into the present day market for
consumer goods, but it is quite evident that tho current
demand is so great that production must be stepped up to
heights far above present record levels before we can feel
any relief from short supply. This desired expansion cannot
be attained as quickly as it should be so long as bureaucratic
interference is permitted to continue.
city of single males is all moon
shine. The latest statistics, she says,
show that In the marriageable
auc croups there are MORE
single men than single women.
She then adds (in case you are
worried) that right now there
are at least a MILLION AND A
HALF single, eligible males In
these United States of America.
The hunting, you see, is still
good -war or no war.

Fishermen Score
Chaotic Control of
Salmon Industry
SEATTLE, Aug. 28. Wh-The
International Fishermen and Al
lied Workers of America (CIO)
in a statement yesterday demand
ed that the OPA remedy what it
termed "a hodge podge" of price
controls In the salmon fishing in
dustry. "From Seattle to San Frf.n
clsco," it stated, "salmon fisher
men are forced to sell their
catches under a hodge podge of
ceilings which can be described
only as a stabilization monstros
ity. "Depending on the port of land-,
ing, a half dozen different prices
apply to a single type of salmon.
Neither the OPA, the fishermen
nor tho consuming public can
make head or tail of these ceil
ings. They are devoid of honesty,
common sense and workability.
"Fishermen accepted this intol.
erable setup during the war as a
necessary sacrifice. Since VJ Day,
every effort has Deen exerted
to bring this price control tangle
down to earth. The merit of the
fishermens case has been con
stantly recognized, but a solution
just as constantly delayed."
It asserted that "organized
fishermen will be compelled to
dis associate themselves from all
existing salmon ceilings and use
every possible means to obtain
substantial price increases, unless
OPA takes the following steps
within 10 days:
"Rolls back the prices of all
items of cost, Involved in salmon
fishing, to their 1942 maximums;
"Gives an unequivocal answer
that consumer ceilings will be
maintained on fresh, frozen and
canned salmon for the duration
of the price-control law;
"Provides for upward adjust
ment in the producer prices, to
compensate for reduced catches;
"Removes tho Inequities and
absurdities from salmon sched
ules applying to fishermen."

GOP Chief Raps
Discrimination
Against Negroes
BUFFALO, N. Y., Aug. 28. UP)
Chairman Carroll Reece of the
Republican National Committee
told a Negro audience yesterday
"the nation can not continue to
exist one-half free and one-half
liilbo."
In an address to the Order of
Elks, Reece declared that when
Negroes voted Democratic in re
cent years they ''have not been
looking out for their own inter
ests." "There are still parts of this
nation In which outrageous dis
crimination is practiced," he said.
"They are not those parts of the
country in which the Republican
party controls the machinery of
government." '
fhe Democratic party as now
constituted, Reece continued, "will
not make any serious al tempt to
abolish racial persecutions and
abuses in our southern stales. H
will not do so, and it can not do
so. It can not do so because it
must depend upon the votes of
that bloc of states dominated by
ihc un-American one-party sys
tem, to elect its candidates for
federal office.
"It will not do so because so
long as that Southern bloc per
sists in- its present form it will
exercise veto power over any
policy directed for the correc
tion of these outrageous abuses.
"I am stating but the plain
facts of history when I say that
every bit of permanent legislation
ever enacted for the projection
of members of the colored race
have been enacted under Repub
lican auspices."

AH 5 Americans Died
On Shot-Down Plane
BELGRADE, Aug. 27. UB
Hope that at least one crew mem
ber oi a shot-down American
transport plane might still be
found alive was abandoned today
by U. S. Graves resignation com
mission officers who said suffi
cient evidence had been found to
indicate that all five crewmen
had died in the crash.
The finding of four left feet
and part of another left foot con
vinced them, the officers said,
that the five men perished when
their plane was shot down on
Aug. 19 by two Yugoslav pursuit
craft near Bled, in northwest
Yugoslavia close to the Austrian
frontier.
The report was made after the
commission had re-examined the
scene of the wreckage and a com
mon grave in the Holy Cross
Church cemetery in the village of
Koprivnik.
Meanwhile the remains of the
fliers lay in caskets in prepara
tion for the journey to their ulti
mate resting place in the United
States.
Good News for Maids:
Supply of Males Ample
WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-4P)
-Census figures showed uo today
as so much romantic sabotage
those reports that the war left a
scarce supply otf single males.
On the contrary the gals have
an ed?e in the marriace odds.
The statistics show that in the
marriageable age groups there
are more single men than single
women.
"There still are more than
enough men to go around," Dr.
Hope T. Eldridge, census bureau
analysis expert, told a reporter.
Right now she figures there
are 1,500,000 or more single,
eugioip males.
