and the rebuilding of their ex-
fiort markets, wmcn nave neon
ost during the period when
British industry was concentrat
ing on war production.
AS they see it, there are Just
two ways by which they can
turn the trick by getting the
bulk of their raw materials
from the sterling area (that is
to say, the countries using the
pound, instead of the dollar, as
money) and oy reducing SHAKI
LY the proportion of their total
production that can be permitted
to go into domestic consumption.
They are going to have to do
BOTH.
A LL this has been talk In big
" words. Let's see if we can
get it down to earth.
Reducing sharply that part of
British production that can be
PERMITTED to go into domestic
consumption means that British
people will have to go on DOING
WITHOUT the products of peace
that they now want as acutely
as we do.
They will have to go on patch
ins ud their old clothes so that
the new cloth from the mills can
be sold abroad. They will have
to go on doing without electric
irons and washing machines, and
soap and so on through all the
Ions list of peace-time desirables.
They will have to draw their
belts tighter, and ration their
food even more closely than they
have been doing. England must
EXPORT OR DIE and every
Briton knows it.
T END-LEASE would have
bridged the. gap, enabling
them to get raw materials while
they are building up their lost
markets abroad and also while
they are providing some of the
comforts of peace time (including
houses) that the British now
want as badly as we do.
If you are able to grasp this
situation, you will be able to
understand why the British of an
kinds and classes were perturbed
by the sudden ending of lend'
lease.
TTERE are 'some figures that
1 are at least Illuminating:
In 1938, (the lest year of peace)
the United Kingdom (bngland,
Scotland, Wales and North Ire
land) exported roughly 500 mil
lion pounds worth of goods. It
IMPORTED 900 million pounds
worth of food and raw materials.
The difference was made up by
British services, such as ship
ping, banking, insurance, foreign
investments, etc -
. The war has destroyed most
of Britain's ships, has resulted
in the sale of most of her
foreign investments and has
badly wrecked her world-wide
banking and insurance interests.
How they are going to fill the
gap right now is worrying xnem
hadlv.
Hence their concern over the
ending of lend-lease. They don't
just want to scrounge off of us,
as our British-haters will insist.
But you have to be over here
on the ground to understand that
fully.

GUILTY TO CHARGE
Lee Arlet Hixon pleaded not
guilty in circuit court Friday
morning to a charge of receiv
ing and concealing stolen prop
erty. No definite trial date was
set by Circuit Judge David H.
Vandenberg. '

ness valued at $102 belonging

this charge but is being held in
the county jail in lieu of $1500
bail on another charge of re
ceiving and concealing stolen

TRUMAN STRIKES AT
ARGENTINE SIEGE
BUENOS AIRES, Sopt. 28 OP)
The Truman administration of
ficially told the Argentine gov
ernment toduy that the state ot
siege and other measures taken
by this country's military regime
inevitably would have "a deplor
able effect" on public opinion in
the United States.
This view was expressed to
Juan Cooke, Argentine foreign
minister, by John Moors Cabot,
who as charge d'affairs heads
the American embassy since the
departure ot Ambassador Spru
ille Braden.
Government's Poiltlon
Cabot said Cooke invited him
to a conference and stated, the
government's position.
"I explained at length the de
plorable effect which various, ot
the measures taken by tho gov
ernment would inevitably have
on public opinion in the United
States," Cabot told reporters.

University of Buenos Aires sus
pended indefinitely all univers

the large-scale detention of pro
fessors and students as the gov
ernment's roundup of editors,
Intellectuals, lawyers, and poli
tical leaders continued.
Strict Censorship
Strict press and radio censor
ship prevailed and the Farrol
Peron military regime had de
tained leading Argentine editors.
Even as this dispatch was be
ing written, tho .director of tele
grams : called: .the Associated
Press and said: .
."Under existing laws govern
ing communications in this
country, you are not to distribute
any dispatches insulting to the
Argentine government, whether
the dispatches are incoming from

tine to other countries."
