NEWS ANALYSIS Outlines U. S. Foreign Po i:y, Coopzration; Nazis Surrendering Ukraine Foo ok|; Congress Studms Simphfied Tax Form (ED|TOR'8 NOTE: When opinions are expressed in these columns, they are those of Western Newspaper Union's news analysts and not necessarily of this .ewspaper.) Released by Western Newspaper Union. Burma--in Burma even children smoke, so Pfc. Wayne Martin, Los Angeles, Calif., passes cigarettes out to young natives as U. S. troops enter Kachin. FOREIGN POLICY: Outlined by Hull The concern of Americans in the i Bght of the diplomatic jockeying in !Ettrope, U. S. foreign policy was ~ouflir~ed by Secretary of State Cor. I dO]l HuLl, with emphasis on world political and economic cooperation. Said Hull: "Some international agency must be created which can --by force, ff necessary--keep' the peace among nations in the future I' " ' Political differences which ipresent a threat to the peace of the world should be submitted to agen- cies which would use the remedies ~tof discussion, negotiation, concilia- tion and good offices . . , Disputes I of a legal character , . . should be jdjudicated by an international !court of Justice . . ." After calling for abolition of ~stifling world trade barriers, Hull declared' for wtabflizing currencies for the smooth flow of goods and services, and offering financial • assistance to countries to enable them to obtain resources for main- tsinlng their business and agricul- tural life, ! vssm i ~Vear Hungary Falling back under the advance of Russian armies, Nazi troops ro- trested to the long shadows of the Carpathian mountains in Hungary, 'guarding central Europe, while far. they to the southeast, other Ger- man forces were surrendering their last foothold on the rich mineral and farm land of the Ukraine. In backing up to the Carpathians, the Germans abandoned additional territory in prewar Poland, while their withdrawal to the southeast brought the Russians closer to the Rumanian border, from which the population was being evacuated. The Nazis' remaining toehold in the Ukraine was being steadily loos- ened as the Russians slashed deep- ly into their lines all along this front, ~restening the German units with encirclement from *.he rear. , TAX FORMS: Plan Simplification Tha nation's 50,000,000 taxpayers who heroically tussled with this year's income tax form won't have to do battle again in 1945, if congress acts favorably on Rep, Robert Dough. ton's legislation for simplified tax pay- ments. Under Doughton's plan, 30 million Americans earning Rep, Do~hton less than $5,000 yearly in wages and salariem would simply file a copy of their withholding receipt, and the tressury then would figure whether it heY owed more taxes or were en- titled to a refund. People receiving less than $5,000 in wages and sal- aries but more than $100 in other income would file a simplified statement. The present normal and surtax would be combined into a new sur- tax and raised to 20 per cent of the first $2,000 of taxable income, and although the victory tax would be abolished, a new normal tax of 3. per cent would be imposed on net income over $500. All exemptions would be set at $500 per person. FOOD: Can't Feed World Declaring that the U. S. cannot be the food basket of the world, War Food Administrator Marvin Jones said that other Allied na- tions will have to provide a major share of postwar re- lief in distressed countries. Although U. S. food supplies are adequate for civil- ians and services, Marv.ln Jones Jones said, our ex- portable surplus in proportion to the Allies' total amounts to 7 per cent of the wheat, grain and flour; one-fourth of the fats and edible oils; one.third of the meat, fish and rice; and a little n'kore of canned fish, dried fruits, and of peas and beans. The nation's foreign relief contri- butions chiefly will be made up of dry beans and peas, cereals, soya products and minimum amounts of animal proteins and concentrates, Jones said. More stress will have to be placed on dirt crops at home, Jones said, because short feed supplies will cut livestock levels, Crop Acreage Only in oats, rice and sorghums will War Food administration goals for 1944 be equalled or exceeded, the department of agriculture declared, with soybeans, peanuts, corn, wheat, barley, fiaxseed, potatoes, sweet po- tatoes, dry beans and peas, tobacco, hay and sugar beets likely to fall below the mark. Unless the weather is unusually favorable, the wheat crop may not exceed "750 mlMon bushels against 836 million in 1943, USDA said. while 3,126,000,000 bushels of corn should be harvested ff yields equal the 1939- '42 average, Potato output should drop to 410.000,000 bushels compared with the record 464,000.000 of last year. '~nere seems to be a general fear that there will be an inadequate Sup- ply of labor needed during short periods for harvesting certain crops which are dependent on seasonal la- bor," the USDA said. EUROPE: Invasion Moves While the British ordered Eng- land's south invasion coast closed and Allied bombers continued to hammer German industry and de- fenses, Adoll Hitler moved with his customary suddenness in establish- ing direct Nazi control over Hun- gary in preparation for the big At. lied offensive against the continent. Hitler's action was designed to, in. corporate Hungary economically and militarily into the German wehr- macht aa Rumania and Bulgaria al- ready have been, so as to provide a common pool of resources and men for use sgainst invading armies in the Balkans. In closing the English invasion coast, the British sealed off terri- tory facing France and the Low- lands on the south, and Norway and Denmark on the east, prospective second front sites. Meanwhile, bitter action raged around the Cassino foothills for the key to the road to Rome, and fight- ing fluctuated at~the Anzio beach- head to the northwest. HIG|HLIGHTS .... in tat ,~e~k', e by the navy are being mus- • Civilian patrolmen will WPB U. S. EMPLOYMENT: Total num- ber of persons employed in the Unit- ed States has declined to the low- est point in two years, at 50.200,000 at the end of February. Last July the total was 54,600.000. The all. peak was in August, 1942, with at work. Most of accounted for bY 0~ women from tempo- rary Jobs. THE GOLDEN VALLEY NgWS PACIFIC: Action Widespread From the Marshall Islands to Bur- ma, the whole Pacific front was aflame, with Allied forces pounding against the Japs' stubborn outer de- fenses. In mid-Pacific, U. S. battleships and bombers plastered the enemy's isolated holdir.gs in the eastern Marshalls, while farther to the south- east, U. S. army fliers ripped Jap shipping movirg troops and supplies along the New Guinea coast for fight. ing in the rugged country around Madang. With one side and then the other trying to hold off the other before the rainy monsoon season sets in in Burma, Allied troops launched an air-borne offensive behind Jap lines in the north, but the enemy struck back with a full scale offensive to the south, aimed at snapping U. S. and British supply lines radiating from India. SHIPYARD FRAUD: FBI Nips Scheme It still takes a long, long step to keep ahead of the FBI. Charged with falsifying work rec- ords so as to draw higher pay, 34 employees of the Bethlehem Steel company's Sparrows Point, Md., shipyard were arrested by. the FBI and accused of defrauding the gov- ernment of sums amounting to a million dollars yearly. Allegedly in operation for five years, the scheme involved welders, who were said to have paid the men checking their work $I or more per day for altering the records, enabling some to make as much as $15 extra per day. More than 700 welders allegedly were involved at the shipyards, where total employment exceeds 8,000, and 24 tankers and cargo ships were turned out last year. LOCKER PLANTS: Increase Use Due to an expected expansion of 25 per cent in war gardens this year, a 10 per cent increase in frozen food locker plant capacity for 1944 is foreseen. So widespread has become use of the locker plant, operators predict a 50 per cent expansion in facilities during the five years following the war, with increasing use in big cities. Originally designed as a rural service with 80 per cent in commu- nities of 5,000 population or less, locker plants are most numerous in th~ Middlewest. though their popu- lai~ity has spread to New England, the South and Far West. Business-Finance [ Mail Order Becat~se of shortages of merchan- dise. Montgomery Ward & Co., Inc., America's No. 2 mail order house, was unable to fill orders for $105,- 000,000 in 1943. Cost to the company for handling the orders, moreover, approximated $8,000,000, contrib~- ing to the decline in earnings for the year to $20,677,098. Average num- ber of employees is 78.000. Rafts Ordinarily a small item in peace- time, special freight rates to the government on goods moving over land granted to the railroads may cut the rails' wartime earnings from 300 to 500 million dollars, Union Pa- cific President William M. Jeffers said. Repeal of such rates !s being sought, Renegotiation Stating that contractors whose war orders had been cancelled by the government have received no more than 10 per cent of their settle- ment claims and some have waited over a year for action, a senate sub. committee pressed for legislation granting contractors immediate financial assistance up to 90 per cent of their claims to provide working capital for other production. EUROPEAN RELIEF : Ask Food Shipments Long opposed by the British be- cause it would relieve the blockade girdling Axis Europe, plans for feeding the needy of occupied coun- tries were pushed forward in Wash- lngton, D. C., with a house commit- fee's recommendation that the U. S. undertake the task under supervi- sion of neutral powers. Simil#r to a proposal already ap- provedaby the senate, the house plan" sponsored by Rep. Fish (N. Y.) aSked that the Swiss and Swedish governments and the International Red Cross be requested *o supervise shipments and distribution of food in France. Belgium, Poland. Greece. Czechoslovakia, Norway, the Nether- lands and Jugoslavia so that none shall fall in German hands, Citing such relief to Greece last year, Fish said the U. S. state de- partment certified the successful op- eration of the plan, without benefit to Germany. VACATION GAS Winter vacationists who drove to Florida resorts and now are unable to obtain gasoline to return to their homes cannot expect assistance by appealing to Chester Bowles. The head of the Office of Price Adminis. tration curtly refused to overrule Florida rationing boards. War needs must come first, he said. '~We simply do not have enough gasoline to earmark any of it for driving to and from vacation resorts, ff we are to meet these needs," Mr. Bowles stated.

Nelson, chair- man df the War Production Board, told radio listeners during a recent guest apbearance on "Washington Reports on Rationing," public ser- vice radio program presented by the Council on Candy as Food in the War Effort, an organization spon- sored by the National Confection- ers' Association. The WPB chief Said industry will not get the green light to resume large-scale manufacture of consumer goods "until the war is much more near- ly won than it is today," but that tests are being made in certain areas to see whether small manu- facturing concerns without war contracts should be encouraged to use idle materials in producing Simple household items that are in heav~, deman& REMOVE MrUD STAINS FROM CLOTH, LEATHER To treat mud stains on clothing, first let the mud dry, then brush off as much as possible, advises Julia E. Brekke, NDAC Extension Service agent in clothing. If the mud is on washable fabric, soak in clear cool water first, then wash with soap and warm water. If the fabric is not washable, sponge the stain with denatured alcohol. On rayon, or on colored clothes, use very dilute alcohol, twice as much water as alcohol. When mud contains oil or grease, treat the stain like a hard grease spot. Rub first with a little vase- line or lard to loosen the grease, then sponge with cleaning fluid. Mud often does more damage to leather than to fabric. If left to dry on shoes, it may make a per- manent stain. Remove mud im- mediately from shoes by washing with a wet cloth if necessary. ~V- The thing that we call Amerl- ranism seems to include every lsm but cannibalism.
