Tuesday. September .UK IV17 - for The Third Time Regardless of objections and vetoes, there is a determined effort to rebuild Germany s 'industrial might. It is the third time that •Such action has been taken, war following in the due course of time in the first two in stances. The action is now defended as an essential step in European revival. Those who have voice objections to monopolies and cartel systems, declare that the proposed action will not revive Europe. Others declare that the former owners of German industry are anxious to get the business going again at American expense and then collect the value of their properties. Not so many years ago we helped Germany rebuild and rearm against Russia, but we had to fight Germany in partnership with the country we took pre cautions against. Those who object to the proposed recon Cruction program point out that such action ill not do the things the proponents claim it will accomplish. Germany is short of food, and the objectors declare that indus trial progress will not increase the food sup ply. They also pointed out that a rebuilt German .industry will require considerable coal, that there is already a coal shortage and any expansion in Germany will keep eoal from other countries, retarding Indus trial progress in them. The Revised Plan now being advanced calls for the restoration of Germany’s chem ical industry to “approximately” the 1936 level. A review of the plan shows that the output of machinery will be 1 Of) percent of the 1936 level, that ‘‘capacity in excess of prewar will be retained in the field of pre cision tools, that steel output is to be- raised to 10,700,000 tons, and that the level of ex ports from restricted ‘that is. potential war industries' will need to be greater than be fore the war.” The plan will help Germany but at the same time it will hinder c.c-wsJ.rie.r I fighting with us in trie war against Ger i many, including France. Poland. Belgium and others. The people in this country have a right to be assured that the action proposed in Ger many is not being taken to enrich individ uals or groups, that it is not being taken against our allies. After two years of mud dling in Germany we now come forward with a great plan. Could it be that some smart group has figured out how to pile up millions of dollars while the American tax payer pays the bill? Tt is recalled that at the close of the war an officer who saw action in Germany pro posed to withdraw all forces out of the land, to leave a flying squadron to make inspec tions, and when the first, gun or muntions were turned out the allied air forces would be called in to destroy the factory and its surroundings. He would leave the Germans to work out their own salvation, and to do it without munitions factories. i I’tirrnlal Proltlem The Indianapolis News The United Sates is finding world leader ship akin to parenthood: Worries and re sponsibilities increase, but the rewards are worth the sacrifices. Our newest worry is Great Britain, once sturdy and financially healthy, but now ail ing and lacking even pocket money. A re newal of United States Lend-Lease before fall may be necessary to save Britain from economic ruin. England is no profligate daughter; she is still on thin rations and has exported at the expense of her own comforts. She has too much pride to cry for help unless the need is desperate. Great Britain is the central figure around which we hope to rally Europe for economic recovery. If wo let her fall, the rest may tumble, too. Strengthening the United Kingdom is a heavy responsibility, but one that cannot be shirked. The Indianapolis News.

Knowingi how keenly interested you are in this matter, we would' (like to bring you up to date. The fuel oil supply situation is “tight,” but if every-i |thing goes well, we expect to pull through. We're prob-i ably in at least as good a supply situation as other sup tne busmeHowever, it is taking an all-out! |effort on our part, straining every facility, and doingi [many things that are uneconomical, in order to attain a |balance between our supply and the demands of our cus-^ ktomers. 1 his situation is not brought about necessarily bv ar shortage ot petroleum in the giound. but by shortage of’ [transportation, producing and refining facilities that( Lcould not be built during the war, nor could the unusuak [demands ot the trade be foreseen. Naturally, we and thet 'industry in general are building additional facilities! |which*will unfortunately take some time to complete. In addition to straining every effort to increase our, [supply, the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey stop ped some time ago. when it appeared the situation would! |be tight, converting people or concerns who were burn-i |ing eoal and gas, to oil. We also stopped advertising and rpromoting the sale of Esso Oil Burners and heating oil.j |and adopted a policy of taking on no new customers. * Now we wish to make some suggestions as to how you! ^can also help. First by filling your tank now! This in creases the amount of over-all storage so we can store! |more fuel oil during the off-season, and hence have more^ .available this winter. Many of our customers have help red in this respect. Next, you can economize in securing! |greater efficiency from your burners and in every pos-i Isible way saving heat, thereby “stretching” the amount for fuel oil available. If we all cooperate to the fullest extent, it may carry us| [through the winter season safely in spite of the usuall ^emergencies that arise. You may also be interested in knowing that since an Fnouncing our "hold the line” price policy on July 24th,! Iwe have not raised our prices to you or other household Lers, or in fact, to dealers, distributors, and commercial rand industrial consumers, on gasoline, kerosene or heat-! |ing oil, although most other suppliers recently have done! kso. Naturally, we don't know how long we can continue] r such a price policy, but we intend to follow it as long as! lwe can. ■ We would again like to say that, with your cooperatior Land the cooperation of all customers and suppliers, wi [may, barring unusual emergencies, get through the win Iter satisfactorily. issoheat St^Fuel Oiy Baker Oil Company DISTRIBUTOR OF ESSO PRODUCTS ATLAS TIRES, BATTERIES & ACCESSORIES Dial 2120 or 2® 19 Wijliamston.
