CHALLENGE TO INDUSTRY
If the government will carry out the policy
outlined by Acting Chairman Krug of the
War Production Board the way is open for
American industry under private enterprise
to re-establish itself by accepting the respon-
sibility for meeting the crisis. If the govern-
ment; is really to relax controls immediately
after the fall of Germany, except where pro-
duction is needed for the war against Japan,
the present prospect is that reconversion to
civilian goods will be rapid. Unless there is
an unexpected turn in the European battle
theater that will consume much more mater-
ial than is now anticipated, the government
already has on hand almost sufficient war
goods to finish the job in the Pacific. Of
Affy fruits and vegetables
available in the Pall can be
kept for a few weeks in a gar-
age or on the back porch if
they are used before freezing
weather sets in, the Department
of agriculture says. Where win-
ters are not severe, apples and ,
pears can be kept by setting the
containers on a thick layer of
newspapers and covering with
old rugs, carpeting or news-
papers. If matured and thor-
oughly cured, onions will keep
for several months in an attic
or an unused room where
temperatures stay above freez-
ing. Potatoes may he stored
in dry cellars. In any storage,
they should be protected again-
st light. Potatoes should be
kept in barrels or boxes to re-
duce loss of moisture and they
do better in temperatures of
50 and 60 degrees than if stor-
ed at 40 or below.

A Japanese child on Saipan, her head, arm, and legs
bandaged, sits with bloody face, her tiny battle-Scarred
legs wrapped in netting to keep the flies away, and stares
out at the wreckage of the island. Next to her on the
stretcher sits a tiny friend, a name tag pinned to her torn
dress, telling a U. S. Marine the answers to his questions.

dust rial activity in the wTar plants to meet
new needs that will arise as new inventions
have their influence on/ military procedure.
But even with this continued operation of the
war industries, the majority of the industrial
capacity of the nation will be able to recon-
vert to civilian goods.
The announcement confronts American in-
dustrial enterprise with a challenge. It has
cone an astounding job in converting to war
production. There was much government
financial assistance and regulation in this
program. Yet the actual getting of the job
cone must be charged primarily to the credit
fcf private operation of industry. The post-
war period will present a comparable crisis.
There are many in the government and
among the public who would favor increas-
ing rather than decreasing government con-
I trol and ownership of industry. If industry
under private ownership and management
falls down on the job by failing to reconvert;
quickly to civilian production or by failing j
to maintain a high level of production and;
v.employment after reconversion, then we
shall hear an intensified clamor for govern-
ment control. It is not exactly fair to put
private enterprise on this spot. The war and,
he postwar crisis are not its responsibility.
But the situation is such that it will be blam-
ed unless it meets the problem.
In justice to industry government should
promptly take one step further than merely A Q11J
relaxing controls. It should scale taxes /1I,IIY 111 dVj
down to where reserves can be accumulated Icciia Tnetriiptinnc
for expansion. The wartime expansion has
been accomplished primarily on government Christmas Mailing
money. If industry is to hit a postwar level ^
of production and employment that will be
25 to 50 per cent abvoe the level of the pre-
war period, it must have the money for a
constant stream of investment in new plants
a ad equipment. Even looking at the situa-
tion from the viewpoint of government re-
vanue, a scaling down of taxes is advisable.
Present taxes on industrial enterprise are
beyond the point of diminishing returns.—
