March It, 1BI1 THE STATESMAN PUBLISHING CO. - ' CHARUa A- SPRAQUll. President Member of The Associated Preas Tli Associated Press Is exclusirsly entitled to the use for i publication of all news dispatches credited to It or not other wis credited la (his newspaper. - . The Hour of Decision Much is being said about the submarine destruction of British shipping along the sea lanes west of Lands End off the Irish coast. Some people think' they represent Hitler's method of keeping the British from making mincemeat of the Italians' along with the Greeks, and that intensified sub marine warfare is not a serious substitute for the air warfare of recent months. . Other people say the reports of heavy sinkings are mere ly: windewiressing for a concentrated British appeal for American financing of the British war effort; Still others be lieve Hitler has gone back to the Kaiser's old technique of trying to starve the British out of their tight little isle by submarine counter-blockade. Any or all of these hypotheses may be correct. What is more important than any of them is the single fact upon which they all agree : the fact that the British shipping lost to submarine attack represents an enormous quantity of ocean tonnage, and that its loss, a Za'17,can ill be borne by the British. It is upon this basis, and not on the basis of the rea sons for Hitler's strategy, that the matter comes forward for consideration by Americans. At any rate, if these reports are consistent with the facts, as one is strongly inclined to believe that they are, they "Imply two things. One is that the British convoy system is on the verge of breakdown because of the lack of available naval vessels to afford protection. In other words, fifty over age destroyers were not enough, and the remaining seventy would come in very nicely, thank you. ; The other is that the Germans, in all probability, have perfected new methods of building submarines (and training their crews) in a much shorter period of time than was the case at the start of the war. The combination of assembly line submarines with the captured submarine fleets of France and the cooperating submarines of Italy, plus the German fleet itself which was under wraps during a large part of the slimmer, means that where one undersea boat lurked before, two or three now lie in wait for the wallowing freighters of the British convoys. i For the British, there can be only one answer to the menace. That is, in view of their own bomb-ridden shipyards arid foundries as well as the increasingly large totals of ships sunk, American assistance given without stint and then some. The loss of British shipping, in the last analysis, is a problem to be solved in Washington and in American ship yards rather than in Whitehall and along the Clyde and the Forth. But for America the problem is not so simple as a mere matter of deciding whether to sell a few dozen antiquated freighters, and to turn over to the British another brace of destroyers and most of the ships now under construction for the maritime commission. Instead it is simply the old: bugaboo of America's relation to the war, this time dressed j up to look like a flock of innocent ocean freighters. The question is really something like this. We have given Britain airplanes and destroyers and sold her ships. Suppose weigive her the chance to get more ships. After that do we have to give our navy? And with the navy our troops, airmen and guns? If we do all of this are we merely to keep the Ger mans from dining in Buckingham palace, or are we to join the British and assorted disaffected continental people and ruri the Germans Out of Europe? If we dtf the latter, what have we to offer in the way of permanent world organization which will rule out the possibility of future war? Are we willing, this time, to as sume the leadership of some new international organization? Or' granting that all such hypothetical action is mistaken, and that no ships can be found for Britain and the shipyards ' are already shoulder-deep in orders which can't be filled, how are we to explain the fact to a desperate England? Mnch later, how are we to adjust ourselves to a conquered Britain and to a German world empire? In other words, how do we stand with the war? Some of these questions seem stow, to be academic. But 'with the necessity of deciding on the exact measure of aid to Britain becoming daily an increasingly pressing matter, most of them are beginning to require earnest consideration. And unless we wish to establish ourselves as a nation of ostriches, they will have to get it. t- The Ten-Year Plan Committee Like Topsy, the average dry "just grows though its growth is influenced by factors which are definite though di verse. Civic projects arise in two ways. An argent need de velops, as for example a sewer system, and the need is met. Or some citizen or group suggests a future need or a desirable service, and then the people are called upon to approve or disapprove. But in most cities each separate civic project, labeled either "need" or "desirable,'' is considered separate ly without relation to other projects which may suddenly become necessary or desirable within the near future. Therefore there is a legitimate field for the "ten-year plan committee" which was tentatively organized in Salem on Tuesday night. Such a committee will be able to make its business, that which is normally nobody's business; the an ticipation of "needs" andttheir coordination with one another ; and with the "desirables.' Having surveyed the entire civic situation, the committee ds in position to wjr that a suggested project is "desirable but should net be undertaken thisrear because there is a "needf which is more urgent. . ' . All of this planning ihowever is inextricably Jinkedrwith the problems of civic -finance. Last weekend there were prominently displayed news reports that in the aggregate, the cities of Oregon have substantially reduced their bonded : indebtedness. That is encouraging news because in the final analysis, reduction of debt is the surest and almost the only : road to substantial tax reduction. It is the city's financial situation, rather than some ethereal concept of civic progress, which such a planning committee must keep most clearly in view if it is to be useful and effective. The committee must include some "boosters" but must be balanced, by the grouD of "watchdosra of the latter group should be at least slightly in-the majority.

When yon consider that ths major defense Industries now are running near capacity, yon- will get some idea of the extent of the It 41 surge that is being an ticipated.

Their current peak of production eannot be boosted much further until they acquire more capacity, six months or mors from now. But there Is good ground for the Rooserettlans' belief that the index will go up regardless. The Jones figures showed October In come at a 10-year high. This money will be (in fact Is), spent for current home needs in erery line. Volume of goods sold this Christmas Is expected to be the highest os record. Prices are now lower tiuua 1929 and there fore the dollar volume may be somewhat under that top year of history. Retail sales squirmed up to 101 for Norember and will be higher in December (last December was only tl). For tho year 1140 re tail sales will be T per cent abore the previous year. Next year they should certain ly expand much mors. If ths ar maments boom continues. Ths Jones figures Indicated national Income increased $4,000,000,000 this year to $74,000,000,000. His experts calculate It will reach $$0,000,000,000 next year, an In crease of $0,000,000,000 more. If retail sales Increased 7 per cent on n $4,000,000,000 Jump In In come, they should oxpaad much further in 1941 on an additional $1,000,009,000 of income.
