. S. Will Have Healthy Economy (Continued From Page One) ' More than twice the merchant < ship tonnage of 1!>42 in order to u:J- < sure delivery of critically needed ] supplies to our ground and air i forces and those of our allies. A considerable increase in the naval escort vessel program in order to afford protection for merchant shipping operating on supply lines to all corners of the globe. More navul combat] vessels so that our sea power will be able to carry the fight to enemy fleets and operating bases. Each of these competent programs has been fitted into the muster program. They comprise for the most part, the items that are difficult to make; ones thut require lurge quantities of material, component parts, skilled iniuiiKiwer and special facilities. Some other items in the muster program are relatively easier to make and it was possible during last year to reach u satisfactory production level. The urgeucles of the theaters, of military operation also beur a direct relation to the make-up of the program. These fucturs and the necessity for insuring the production of the more difficult Items hus resulted in some reduction lu the program for items needed by the ground and armored forces, among which are tanks, artillery, motor vehicles and ammunition. , Compared with the overall program, Hia nnaruira lun-paniuiru nf rultn>tlnn 1* small. ltegurdless of how the master program is made up and balanced, it must l?e kept wlthlu an overall lluilt dictated by the supply of raw materials, maupower, and other resources. This basic principle has beeu followed lii laying out the 1043 program. In its broad aspects It has beeu adjusted for the first quarter to the estimated supply of approximately 10.G million lugot tons of carbon steel, 3.4 million Ingot tons of alloy steel, 700 thousand tons of copper / and ubout ."WO million pounds of aluminum. Jly the last quarter of 1043 the supply will be subtautially increased and a corresponding Increase in the progrum will be i*>sslble. Ill Its more detailed aspects, the piogram Is designed to keep pace with the ever-changing requirements of modern warfare. If war takes a turn in which the deuiunds ure more urgent In one cutegory than lit another upward revisions must lie uc' coinplished lu the first lustauce ut the expense of downward revisions lu the second. Vni- aTfliiinla If I l.u nl...i,.ra I., t l,n military situation requires more alrviaft of the heavy bomber type, there must be u quantitative reduction iu other types of aircraft in order to keep the over-all aviation prop-am within Ita uvalluble supply of raw materials. Sliuply put, additions to one part of the program mean subtractions from others. The majority of plant facilities originally planned for the propduclion of curtailed Items can be converted to production of Items for the Air Forces, for the Navy, or for the Maritime Commission. Some of these conversions are already In process, tine plant, for example, built to make recoil mechanisms for, cannons has lieen changed over to produce struts for aircraft landing gears. There are certain other Instances where facilities will continue to produce Items as originally planned and scheduled, hut nt reduced levels. In such cases It, is the policy of the armed services to lustruct the prime contractor to effet uo more than the same percentage of reduction in the schedules of his subcontractors as was ordered In the prime contract Should the prime contractor be a nnnufucturer, for example, of urtilery ammunition und should his output be revised downward by '10 per [rent, he should uot curtail the output i?f any sub-contractor in excess of 111 , [?er cent. Such horizontal -cuts muy not l>enefit in every case, but they will be effected wherever practical, unless there is wane alternative war Job waiting for the sub-oaitractors' facilities. Where readjustments are deemed necessary in existing programs. It is the policy of the urated services to give particular attention to a continuance of operation in these facilities employing the minimum amount of materials and the minimum iiuinlter of ail-hours to complete like couiponents and like etul-iteius. The law covering small war plants Is, of course, operative in such cases and ils provisions are followed whenever revisions' are made. Where existing facilities are adequate to meet the demands of the revised programs of production, it is the policy of the armed services and the War Production Hoard to defer completion of additional facilities, including tools, jigs and fixtures, ' until after complete study Is given ' to each N|MM'iflc case. Materials and tools released because of such adjustments will be transferred to other ' ugeucies actually participating in war work. Id liue with this policy, construe- ( tlou of several hundred projects, largely of non-war nature, located in all sections of tlie nation aud costing uiore than $1,200,000,000 already tmve been halted by revocation of reference ratings and stop orders. Vlore are currently beiug reviewed and action in many othr cases can ue expected. The 1042 facilities aud construction program of $18.5 bllllou-$4.5 Dilllou larger than 1041, also a recml your?represents more than onethird of the effort put iuto 1042 war traduction. deductions In the facilities ami ionstructluu program already have >eeu made aud although there is still ronslderuble more cutting to be done, t appears probable that the 1943 . roluiue can be held to upproximatey $12 billion. This may not rep re- ^ tent the minimum and further cuts, vhere possible, will be made. While :ertuiu less essential building hus ( ton curtailed, impetus has l>eeu given . othe aircraft, esocrt vessel, hlgh-ocane gasoline and synthetic rubber ^ irogrutue. i Curtulliueuts In the facilities aud ( construction program and adjust- { neuts In the military programs of lie armed services affect preseut ^ itllizntlon of labor supply. In these ^ vinljustiiients, therefore, careful , consideration Is being given to the * conservation of manpower. Converlion of facilities to other programs vJJl iu some instance provide con- * lnued employment. In mauy in- ' nances stoppage of work In one typo 1 f war plant makes men and women ' iroiuplly available for similar jobs 1 a other plants In the same comnuulty. It is inevitable, however, ' iliut curtailment of production to 1 'onform with adjustments in war I nograms will result in some tempor- 1 iry displacement of Labor, but In lUi'li car-o, every effort will be made 5 hrorigli the governmental agencies oncemed to effect any necessary 1 retraining und placeineut in other 1 tvar Industries so that there will be i minimum wnstage of labor. 1 ? i An outuieal paste is a splendid ikln softener.

Man's greatest mistake in hit quest for abiding civilization was ir believing that external transforuiu tton meant Internal transformation And Plough civilization, externally has resultiil In the constructlv* changing of natural forces for con venlent use, internuliy it did noi transform, to the same extent, ninn'i own self-devolpmeut and his senstt 01 Justice aud fairness," Dr. Joues said The speaker pointed out in conclu sion that abiding civilization Is no In terms of reordering enviromuom alone, but in terms of reordering our selves; nnd It can become permanent when man rids himself of the spirit of greed, contentiousness and exclu siveuera.
