said to bear some resemblance to

Previously it was necessary for
an industry to take up a priorities
problem with one division, a pur
chasing question with another
division and a production prob
lem with still another division of

The new plan is designed,
among other things, to prevent
"overlapping" among divisions,

The senator said America should
mind her own business, that Eng
land should talk things over with
Hitler before it is too late and that
the idea Germany could invade
the United States Is "just fantas
tic." v.; , .
"Instead of talking war," he
declared, "we should be talking
peace. I can't see an English vic
tory. A negotiated peace with Hit

make." -; r
The United States should
"thank her lucky stars' she; Is
not already in the European war
with Soviet Russia as an ally,
Clark added. "We'd really be
out on a limb considering Rus
sia's entry into the war.
"I hold no brief for Hitler none
at all. But I know the American
people don't want to go to Europe
to fight with any one. Well never
get out of another war with any
semblance of democracy. Even if
we were victorious. The drain on
