Usually history repeats itself.
A fter this war, however, there is
a little less complacency regarding

thanks to Russia.
But there is almost as much do

perhaps
most im portant of all, its system

W ASHINGTON. — Mr. Trum an
and his reconverter. John Snyder
have been
bragging that the "pro
duction of civilian goods
and serv

the peak
of all ■

time. They want to
prove by some un

T ain ’t so. There Pees. Truman

A foremost weekly index of ac

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

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

pounds of horse meat could be sold
to Europe — which is the amount
available in the U. S. A. — it would
