Usually history repeats itself. A fter this war, however, there is a little less complacency regarding the future - thanks to Russia. But there is almost as much do nothingness regarding the internal organization of the arm y. President Truman has now de manded that we have a big peace tim e conscript arm y But aside from Secretary of W ar Pattersons healthy board for probing caste, no steps have been taken to reorgan ize the arm y's long out-dated sys tem of promotions, its methods of selecting officers, and, perhaps most im portant of all, its system of elim inating misfits. A thorough re-organisation of the arm y might make it more enticing to good men and there by eliminate conscription. Even Sen. Chan Gurney of South Dakota, most ardent conscrip tion enthusiast, will adm it that a volunteer arm y is more effi cient than one composed of men who are forced to serve.

John Snyder have been bragging that the "pro duction of civilian goods and serv ices" has reached the peak of all ■ i time. They want to prove by some un explained general ized figures on in come and dollar volume that pro duction has been more than restored and r e c o n v e r s io n accomplished. T ain ’t so. There Pees. Truman are tricks in it, to w i t : A foremost weekly index of ac tual production from a non-gov ernmental source places our output for the week ending March 23 at 131 compared with 143 a year ago and about 127 for 1941. Miscellaneous car loadings are less than a year ago, as are steel, electric power and lum ber production, but "other car load ings and paperboard production are above a year ago. Messrs. Trum an and Snyder did not tabulate actual volume of pro duction but only dollar volumes and income, and they made no allow ances for price in creases. F urther more, they said only that "civilian" production was at all-tim e peak. There is no way of telling how much of the J. S. Snyder above - cited pro- d u c t i o n is still arm y, navy and marine, but a por tion must be. So the discrepancy is somewhat greater than the figures indicate. COULD USE HORSE M E A T An im portant debate has been tak ing place among food experts in side the administration regarding the use of horse meat for feeding Europe. i Horse meat is a type of food which Americans know little about. Within Europe it is standard diet and certain countries, especially Erance and Belgium, have repeat edly informed the United States that they would like to buy more horse m eat here. I f two and a h alf billion pounds of horse meat could be sold to Europe — which is the amount available in the U. S. A. — it would take care of most of Europe’s feed ing problems and elim inate any M A N Y IT E M S S T IL L ON ‘H AR D TO G E T L IS T ’ need for U. S. A. rationing.
