'Page 14 Eugene Register-Guard, Tuesday, Nov. 21, 1944 WAVES Enlistments Curtailed Dec. 1 ,. WAVES enlistment will be cur tailed effective Dee. 1, with only a limited number allocated to Ore gon, according to Chief W. E. Bell of the Eugene U. S. navy recruit ing itation. Beginning In December, only enough WAVES will be enlisted nationally to provide replace ments for the WAVES now on duty. The goal set for WAVES enlistments will be reached by Dee. 1, due to the record of ap proximately 5000 enlistments per month which has been maintained tor the past year. Although quotas now are being feduced, young women of Oregon will have the opportunity to qual ify for WAVES enlistment as In 'the past, except that applicants In the future will be placed on a waiting list and enlisted when openings are available. Any young woman interested In the WAVES, Chief Bell explained, should complete ber application "and arrange to place her name on this waiting list so that she will receive first call when billets are open. If enlistment quotas later are Increased, larger numbers of :WAVEScan be taken. TODAY on the HOME FRONT By JAMES MARLOW ai GEORGE ZIELKE S - By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON W) A sen ate committee recommends that tha allies break the back of Ger man big industry. ..There are two main reasons for Sthis proposal for a hard peace 'which would ruin any German hope of again being an Industrial leader: I 1. To prevent Germany from re 'arming after this war.i Without i big steel and chemical plants it 1 couldn't. 3. To destroy Germany's grip on International cartels by which Mt has bored into others nations' 'economic and political life, f . The recommendation came from the subcommittee on war mobili sation headed by Sen. Kilgore ' (D. W. Va.) after months' long 1'Study of cartels, ' An international cartel Is an arrangement between private bus , Iness groups in two or more coun- tries. Through it they can control .Industry,- trade and prices... It means they can operate Independ ently of their own governments. Maintenance of Cartels ; "The German industrial group," ", says the committee, "has been the mainstay ' of the International J cartel "system. . ! "The Industrial monopolists of 'Germany have worked long and 'ardently for pan - Germanism. They have willingly jeined in partnership with Hitler and his lieutenants to achieve their ends. -. "For all practical purposes, the social and political philosophies ot the partners are Indistinguish able." i ' The committee proposal doesn't mean that Germany should be re duced to an agricultural state. But it would be far-reaching. It says In part: ; "A real disarmament program (for Germany) requires not only the dismantling of all direct mu nitions Industries but also the dis mantling and removal to the dev astated areas of Europe of the pri mary munitions industries, in cluding the metallurgical (steel) and chemlral industries.". i. The Germans already have vio lently denounced the Morgenthau plan that Germany be destroyed as a modem industrial state. Assailed By Dewey Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, In his last presidential campaign speech, aald this plan so stirred up the Germans that it had the effect of providing them with 10 new di- visions. But President Roosevelt has In structed the foreign economic ad ministration to speed up studies on how to control Germany's "power arid capacity to make war in the future." The committee, however, is not aiming only at the destruction of cartels with German Interests in volved. It wants all International cartels eliminated. ' It says in effect that cartels not only gag economic develop ment, free trade and free enter prise but lay the groundwork for war .or political control of one country by another. It says: ' "A cartel system dominated by American or British interests would produce the same undesir able results as the one exploited by the Geimans." The committee takes such a se rious view of the power past, present and future of big Ger man cartellst that It recommends punishment for them after this War. SHOES REPAIRED For Longer Wear IP!
