THE OLD JUDGE SAYS...
"Yes, I'm afraid there's no denyin' it, Judge
. . .jeeps and trucks and other kinds of motor
ized equipment have taken the place of the
good old horse in modern warfare."
"It's true of lots of things in this war,
Eben. Every day we hear of new tactics and
requirements and new uses of products. For
instance, take the alcohol that is used for
war purposes. In World War 1, this vitally
needed product was used mostly in making
smokeless powder, chemical warfare materi
als and medical supplies. Today it must do
far more ... it must provide the base for such
indispensable products as synthetic rubber,
shatterproof glass, lacquers, plastics and
many other of our requirements so essential
to victory.
' "As a result hundreds of millions of gal
lons are required every year. . .half of which
is being produced by the beverage distilling
industry. Bet you didn't know that, Eben."
"As a matter of fact, I didn't. Judge.
That's a mighty important war contribution
that had escaped me completely."

have not voted in the last two
years or have moved to another

Germany as well as in France

than we anticipated.
But there are no official fig

all these together and other simi
