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,

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.

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

the total was 54,600.000. The all.
peak was in August, 1942, with

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

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. '

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.
