Butler, R., Neb., as "a cat's paw in a bit of Journalistic ghost-writing"- for Reader's Digest, the periodical In which Butler elaborated on charges that the administration had spent $6,000,000,000 on a "boondoggling" program in South America. Guffey suggested that it was "unfortunate ha (Butler) was not aware of the extent to which tha editors of Reader's Digest were abusing his trust and em ploying his personal prestlje to foist on America and the world a mass of misinformation." Says Apology Owed . Butler made a tour of South America during tha summer re cess of congress. ' Guffey said that the editors of the magazine owe an apology to Butler, "whom they have made to appear as an interna tional fool," to tha senate, the American people at large and tha government and peoDle of every friendly American' nation. The senators trio was. In fact, undertaken under the aus pices of Reader's Digest," Guf fey said. "He was accompanied on his trip by a Mr. Maurice K. Mumford, a member of tjie Reader's Digest research staff, as a rewrite man to put the senator's report Into acceptable magazine form, the Reader's Di gest utilized the service of Dr. Stanley High." Guffcy said he wouldn't guess as to the magazine's motive "or guess that the editor hopes by overthrowing this administra tion to be relieved of part of his income tax, or that he may have decided to cultivate pro- axis circulation for his Spanish edition in the Argentine." Reader's Digest editors, Guf fey said, supplied Butler with most of "tha figures used to sup port his claims that South American expenditures are in the neighborhood of $6,000,000,- uuo. coma . figures, Guffey con tended, were juggled to misrep resent the facts and others were outright false. Guffey sought to have his speech made a part of a senate document in which Butler's re port to the senate will be pub lished but Sen. Arthur H. Van- den berg, R., Mich., objected, declaring that Guffey's speech "violates the rules of the senate In many respects." Butler walked Into the senate chamber during Guffey's speech and sat through It silently. When Guffey concluded Butler an nounced.that he did not Intend w iiiann a lurrntu answer yet. ine only thing I want to say now Is that I don't even know some of tha persons the senator mentioned," Butler said.

It is pretty certain that th public will not receive any ma jor home front bonanzas until the last bomb luu exploded In Europe, at least. Nevertheless, authorities aald, the American public will be the Best fed, best clothed, best housed of any of the warring powers. Here's how the civilian Is like ly to fare next year: consumer goods: The only commoaities tnat positively will reappear are the two-wav stretch, garters, suspenders and such elastic goods which now can be made of synthetic rubbct. These will come around Easter time, under present plans. Hooka and eyes and zippers also are ex pected to make a return engage ment. Clothing and shoes will con. tlnue to fall short of civilian de mand, but this will be due more to the manpower problem than to a prohibitive absence of sup plies. New radios will still be off tho market and a resumption of pro duction foe mechanical refriger ators cannot be anticipated In tne arjsence of the fractional horse-power motor. War Production Chairman Donald M. Nelson has Dromised that production of civilian goods win De permitted on an increas ing scale as fast as military re quirements will permit the re lease of plants and materials. But the ciyilan is reminded that produotinn of civilian goods dur ing wartime can never be any where near normal and that au thorized resumption of nroduo tion or stepped-up manufacture la mainly for the purpose ot cusniomng the expected deterioration. Sharp increases in repair parts tor essential machines will help to make life more comfort able for civilians who have been watching some of their treasured possessions wear out for two years. . Rationing! Considerable1 sim plification of the entire ration ing program will get underway with the Inauguration of ration tokens in February. All food ration coupons will be assigned a flat 10-point value, with the piastic tokens- being given as change for any purchase amount lng to less than, 10 points. Tok ens will he good at any time. With the exception of possibly a few processed food items which may be given zero poln values as supplies increase, the ration charts probably' will not be altered drastically, Fluctuat lng point values, however, will keep the consumer on bis toes. ...Tood: There will be mora c reals, milk and eggs, but less of all kinds of meat, under present War Food Administration plans. After record-breaking produc tion year, tne wrA baa ordered concentration on grains in the 1944 crops program, but think the country could get along on less meat production and still as sure fulfillment of essential quirementa. Prices! This is tha major un certainty on tha threshold of tha third war year. Without subsl dies. Price Administrator Chea ter Bowles had declared higher food prices would be inevitable and soon. If subsidies go out, Bowlea promises that the OPA can only do Its best to checls ris ing living costs.
