involved to develop and execute ?
coordinated policy that would put an
overall blanket on wages, profits, and

| On The Home Front i
Strange indeed ,is the obsession of
some Americans that we're going to
win this war simply because of our
superiority in natural resources and
industrial capacity. Victory will come
only throught using them intelli
gently.
It is the determine of the War
Production Board to us ethese things |
intelligently that iles behind its ac
tion in slicing away at civilian man
ufacture. For instance, the uoaru :
has prohibited further use of iron 1
and steel in a long list of products i
and has a!-.o halted all construction
not essential to the war purpose. 1
We are now producing weapons
at the rate of some 30 billion dollars '
a year. It's not enough, of course,
but it's three times what we were
doing last, yaer ? and our pace is ac
celerating. Let Hitler and Hirohito
and Mussolini think that over!
TH11EE PROBLEMS
1 no most important problem we ,
face on thr Home Front today is that
of production, but there are three
other problems to be solved :f we jre
to pet production to the fullest, i
These problems are (1) shortages of.
mate'iais vita! .o the war e!for*: (2) \
inflation, which means that prico.s
^re getting highe; and higher ar.J
tfat unless ..lmethin? is doiw w >
'v.rn't get oui fu'.t value in plaices !
and weapon, ant' ships for ou-:
n">ney: and T t -ansportat'en.
Rail 'unn tat'on, both for pas-,
sengers' and freight, is go' eg to be- j
come more difficult every day. The
problems of motor transportation in- I
crease also. The Office of Price Ad - !
ministration w?xns that there's no i
guarantee that recapping material '
wll Ibe available even for the tires j
of defense workers . . . and that
"national interest and not the con
venience of the war worker" is the j
governing factor in allocating such \
material.
