Willkie today urged full sup port of a grand Allied War Startegy beard, the formation of which is re ported under discussion. In reply xo an inquiry concerning these reports, the 1940 Republican presidential candidate declared: "It is to be hoped that the recent intimations coming out of London end Washington are correct—that there will soon be set up a joint grand War Strategy board consist ing of representatives of the Unit ed States, Great Britain, Russia, China and other Allies.” ‘‘We should all support such a course of action if adopted.” The remainder of Willkie's state ment follows: ‘‘For months, and particularly since my return from my trip around the world, both in private conferences with our own govern-'' ment and in public speeches, 1 have urged repeatedly the indis pensability of such a course. For in such joint action lies not alone hope of victory but equally the hope of eventual world peace. These powers must learn to work together while they fight if they are to work together for world peace and order in the inevitable disintegrating period following the war. ‘Likewise, I hope that Secretary Hull’s suggestion yesterday that our North American political deal ings will be clarified is true. ‘‘For the doctrine of expediency and collaboration with' the Vichy element which has been followed there, if pursued much longer, will greatly damage America’s prestige throughout the world. "It is impossible to tell, in view of the elaborate censorship and propaganda, whether the appoint ments of DarlanS, Peyroutons and other Vichyites do or do not bring temporary gains. There is one thing, however, that we know ab solutely, namely, that such colla boration brings loss of faith to mil lions of sincere lovers of freedom everywhere and to my mind such loss of faith will cost more, even in practical results, than can pos sibly be gained by some temporary expedient.” -v JAY PIERPONT MOFFAT WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.—(iP) — Jay Pierrepont Moffiat, 46, United States minister to Canada and wide ly known diplomat, died at Ottawa today, the State Department was ad vised. -V The first U.

Halsey “goes in to action he throws everything he’s got at the enemy including the kitchen stove—and then he goes into the kitchen, gels the stove lids and throws them too.” Vice Admiral William L. Cal houn, commander of the Pacific Service Force, explained in a statement released by the Navy that his job is “to make sure that the kitchen stove and all the lids are there when Billy Halsey gets ready to throw them.” Calhoun is here for conferences. Shipping, handling and storage are the great problems confront ing the men who supply American forces setting up bases in the Pa cific islands. On the receiving end, Calhoun said, “methods as crude as those Robinson Crusoe had to use to get his stuff out of the wreck” are necessary. “There were no storehouses on those islands, no magazines, no oil tanks, no refrigeration facilities,” he said. “Our engineers are build ing them now, but material and labor for new storage facilities must come from the mainland— and that means delay. Ships are scarce. We have very low grade and insufficient terminal and pier facilities for unloading—sometimes we have to carry things right up the beach. Hurricane weather is frequent and that delays us, too, and the tropical climate is very destructive of stores if unloaded without proper protection to safe guard them until they are used.” One of the greatest needs of the United States forces battling the Japanese is aviation gasoline and that makes Calhoun’s prime prob lem the matter of having gasoline ready wherever and whenever needed. The problem is made es pecially difficult by the fact that gasoline must be shipped in drums because there are inadequate re ceiving and storage facilities in the battle areas. Calhoun said that plentiful sup plies “are now on hand in the war zones, but they must continue to flow.” Transportation and stor age of supplies “is improving swiftly and has bettered by 25 or 30 per cent in recent months in the area where Admiral Halsey’s forces are operating,” Calhoun re ported. -V Silt PERCY VINCENT LONDON.

SALES TAX GIVEN SUPPORT Private Research Group Outlines Plan To Distribute Burden WASHINGTON, Jan. 24. — m - Proponents of a federal sales tax received new support today from the Brookings institution and Rep. Disney (D-Okla) of the House Ways and Means committee. The institution, a private re search organization, recommended a federal retail sales tax as a war measure. Such a levy, its report said, would distribute the tax burden “more widely over the population" and “would also be much more effective than most taxes of simi lar yield in stabilizing the price situation, because it would be chiefly out of money that owners would otherwise seek to spend for current consumption.” “Thus,” the report commented, “the very character of the sales tax which makes it objectionable in peacetime, especially during a depression, becomes an advantage under the conditions which now ex ist.” The institution estimated that a tax of about 10 per cent on all retail sales, excluding housing, medical care and education, would raise $5,000,000,000 if there were no other exemptions. The levy could be eased on the lowest in come group, the report suggested, either by exempting all food items or by a flat exemption. If ex emptions were made, however, the rate would have to be increased two or three per cent if the $5, 000,000,000 return was realized, it added. Disney advocated a sales tax in a statement which said it would “give us an approach” to raising the $16,000,000,000 added revenue which President Roosevelt re quested. “No proponent of the $16,000, 000,000 additional has suggested a more feasible, easily administered plan than the sales tax,” Disney said. Indian WifGetWheat Shipments From England BOMBAY. Jan. 24—UP)—The gov ernment announced today that Great Britain would send substantial ship ments of wheat to India In the next two or three months to help relieve the growing- seriousness of the food situation.
