Commissioner John Pardun dis-closed to members of the TownshipCommission Tuesday night that hehad received several complaintsconcerning rising .rents. He was

In one instance, he said, a resi-dent stated that his rent had beenincreased three times in sevenmonths, jumping from $17.50 to$30.• Legislation to control rents isstill under consideration, MayorWalter C. Christensen pointed out.

The board voted to investigatethe new rent control legislation andshould it provide power for localaction, the complaints recorded inthe township will be immediatelyinvestigated.

$33,000 TO BE SPENT!

•WOOD-BRIDGE—.An appro-priation of ?33,000 has "beenear-marked by the War Depart-ment for the dredging of Wood-bridg-e Creek, it was learned to-day.

Last.year, 88,000 cubic yardsof silt were dredged from thecreek at a cost of $30,000,Jacob M. Klein, counsel of thePort Raritan District Commis-sion, said.

It is believed that the Was1"Department may accept a rec-ommendation made by Town-ship Attorney Leon-E. McElroythat the creek be dredged as far

ge Creekas Crab Beach Bridge on theroad to Sewaren instead of asfar as the Township dock asheretofore. Mr. McElroy con-tends that if the dredging wentas far as the bridge the creekwould ' not fill in again, soquickly.

According to Mr. Klein thecreek is kept navigable in thehope that in the near futurenew industries will locate alongits banks. John F. Ryan, Sr.,of 120 Green Street, is a mem-ber of the Port Raritan DistrictCommission.

WOODBRIDGE—Six men willbe appointed to the police depart-ment Monday by the TownshipCommittee. :

The rumor of the appointmentswas confirmed yesterday by Po-lice Commissioner Herbert B.Rankin. However, he* did not an-nounce the names of the prospec-tive rookies "as all the men havenot taken their physical examin-ations."

Two of the appointees will takethe places of the • late RobertEgan, of Fords, and tJeorge Leon-ard, of Avenel, who is ill and isexpected to retire as hq$ is overthe retirement age and has beenon the force 20 years as requiredby law.

In discussing the proposed addi-tion to the force, CommissionerRankin said:

"I have been somewhat opposedto appointments to the depart-ment when times were hard. Butnow things are different. Ourcountry is at war. We have lostone man -by death and we areabout to lose another by retire-ment and they have to be re-placed. The policemen, due tothe home defense program andnecessary cooperation with federalauthorities, are faced with addi-jfcional worii and they ace being as-sfgned~tQo mitch idght work Miproportion to the aniotrat of daywork they get."

With the appointment of thesix men, the department will havea personnel of 39, still two lessthan the number of men on theforce in 1930.

Polios Ckfaf Gnndjean TeOf Cautious Driving NecessityCars May Be Immobilized For The Buratmn Of Tim

RARITAN TOWNSHIP—Never before in the historyof the automobile has there been greater necessity fdf-cautious driving than at present, Police Chief CharlesGrandjean said in a warning- telling motorists their ca£g"may be immobilized for the duration" if disabled througiShighway crashes.

"Inability to replace brokenparts and damaged tires may ac--complish what years of safetypropaganda failed to achieve —safe and sane driving," said ChiefGrandjean. "Motorists now areon notice that it is strictly a mat-ter for their own decision wheth-er they 'keep rolling'.

"Under existing war conditions,with tire rationing a major prob-lem and replacement problemslooming* on the horizon, the driverwho was unimpressed by safetypleas may be actuated by self-in-terest to drive with due regardf tothe safety of his vehicle.

"Treacherous highway condi-tions due to ice and snow will bea constant threat fwmi now untilspring. Slower and more cautiousdriving will aid greatly in pre-venting accidents. It saast be re-membered that cars out of con-trol on slippery roads strike withtremendous force. Collisions atintersections which under ordin-ary circumstances might result innothing more serious than dentedfenders may well become majoraccidents when the glassy surfaceof highways makes brakes in-effective.

:j • Three Men Were WiseIt might be a good idea for the average

American to realize that the entire nationwas caiight napping, along with the Armyarid Navy, at Pearl Harbor. While a greatdeal was done dui-ing 1941 to convert in-dustry to a war-produetion basis, the "busi-ness-as-usual " philosophy was subscribedto by a great majority of our people.

In this connection, however, it is advis-able to call attention to at least threeAmericans who seemed to be alert to theneeds:..

The first is Leon Henderson, Price Ad-ministrator, who did his best to cut downt&e output of new automobiles in the inter-est of arms production.

The second is Walter Reuther, a CIOlabor leader in the Detroit area, who pro-posed that the auto plants be converted toarms manufacturing.

.The third, we think, it should be admit-ted in fairness, was President Roosevelt,who repeatedly warned the people of thiscountry that the world was smaller andthat modern warfare could come to theUnited States.

ll should not be overlooked that Mr.Henderson was denounced as a radical byconservative business, financial and indus-trial interests of the nation, that Mr. Reu-UKT'.-* plan was summarily dismissed bythf I>:if-wigs of industry and the President•nil.-* c11 instantly berated as a "war-monger."

Eat The Right FoodsTiiis war, like the last one, brought to

UK> attention of the American people thet'ai'i that we are undernourished. Not eat-inij ih-.i right kind of food has been respon-&iul« for a large per cent of the selecteeswho have been disqualified from militaryservice.

Jle'alizing" thV Importance'"of '"keepingAn)pricarts strong, the Office of DefenseHmlth and Welfare Services has begun amtfriiion campaign. The first poster issuedin :hi-* campaign listed seven foods thatshuuM be eaten every day to enable thenvi rage man, woman and child to keep inRuixl nealth:

(1) "Milk—at least a pint for every-one, more for children—or cheese, or evap-orate ii or dried milk."

{'1) "Oranges,. tomatoes, grapefruitoi rv\\ cabbage—at least one of these."

(;3-i "Vegetables—green, leafy andjo'Ji'w—one hig helping1—some'raw, somecooked."

(4 i -" "Potatoes and Apples—and oth-er vopstables and fruit." •

("i> "Lean meat, poultry or fish—or•siHiK1 limes dried beans or peas."

(G) "Eggs—at least 3 or 4 a week,choked any way you choose or in 'made'rfNuo--."

(7 i "Bread and cereal—whole grainproducts or enriched bread and flour."

Erory housewife in this community,-itionid study the above list, which is basedon ttio research findings of the government,industry,, and educational institutions, inorder that she may be able to serve mealsv/iih the needed vitamins. The health ofoi:r nations depends upon the housewivesof inn- nation.

'Mexico Proves-A FriendIn the .rush of more important events,

the pi.ople of the United States have, tosHunc i-xtent, overlooked the action of Mex-ico ;nid other Central American countriesin coming to the support of this country inthe present world crisis.

Ii ig interesting to observe that Mexicoivcei.tiy severed diplomatic relations withEumuiiia, Bulgaria"and Hungary and thatthe Foreign Ministry, in its announcement,said ! hat the action "was _ taken becausethe,<e countries Kad • declared war on theUiiiiPii States.

N.ik many years ago it was the commonLMKL1 among many responsible officials "offhis country that, fix the event of war,J:ip; •) would promptly establish' bases onHi'.- '.v-isfc coast of Mexico and it was be-lioM-n possible that the Mexicans mightpassiM-ly permit such action against the1 jiit- ii States. This opinion flourished{im-iiiL' the strained diplomatic relationsvhic-L existed between the United Statesand .Mexico but today, thanks to an en-

policy of forbearance, the United

States is. happy to be able to count Mexicoamong its good friends and to rely uponthe Mexicans to assist in the necessarysteps to protect Mexico territory from be-ing used by the enemies of the UnitedStates.

Sugar HoardersDuring the fifteen-day period begin-

ning on the Monday following the Jap at-tack on Pearl Harbor, a month's supply ofsugar was bought by the American buyingpublic.

In other words, for every five poundsof sugar that was bought to feed us Ameri-cans, another five pounds of sugar wasbought to hoard.

A small group of buyers who antici-pated a shortage of sugar bought up largesupplies, so that they would not have tosuffer with their fellow-Americans if ashortage should come. To us, this group ofhoarders was not only unpatriotic in theattempt to escape its share of sacrifices butalso out. of harmony with the Americanspirit.

Reluctant Defenders Of FreedomThe war against the Axis aggressors

has been going on since September, 1939.The fact that the war still continues is dueentirely to the courage, and fortitude ofthe British people who resolutely acceptedtheir stern duty, in the face- of terribledanger and decided to continue the fight inJune, 1940.

We should also recall that the SovietUnion is now fighting the foes of democ-racy solely because the German Army in-vaded Russia on June 22, 1941, on a frontfrom the Arctic Ocean to the Black Seaand the Soviet had to fight or accept serf-dom.

The Americans who insist that Russiashould launch an attack upon Japan fromVladivostok should recall that this countryis now involved in war almost solely be-cause we were attacked by Japan andthe other Axis powers. Like the Russians,we were reluctant to become embroiled inthe conflict and anxious to avoid the bloodywork, if possible.

Of course, both Russia and the UnitedStates defend their former non-belligeren-cy upon the ground of unpreparedness forthe ordeal but both have discovered thatthey are unable to escape the inevitableconsequences of permitting outlaw nationsto attack and destroy peace-loving neigh-bors.

The Quartermaster's Task"The war in Libya is a paradise for a

tactician, but hell for the quartermaster,"remarked Nazi General Ravenstein whowas captured in Libya. In fact, all modernwar with strategy wrapped up in extensivemovements is "hell for the quartermaster"whose job it is to furnish supplies to eventhe most advanced mechanized force.

In an editorial in the Army Times onDecember 6th, the task of the United Statesis compared with the task of the quarter-master. Our quartermaster problems in-clude getting supplies to Russians, Britains,Chinese, and our own fighting force. ThusAmerica itself has become a huge quar-termaster depot.

"Tough guys, these quartermasters—fighting men!"

As Bad As WarMore than 4,000 Americans were

killed in automobile accidents in Novem-ber and while final figures for ,1941 arenot yet available, it is probable that an all-time record has been establish-ed for trafficdeaths.

During the first eleven months of 1941,35,690 persons were killed in traffic acci-dents. This is a terrific price to pay forspeeding, liquor drinking, love-making andwhatever else causes the deaths of so manyAmericans.

The entire nation was shocked by thedeath of less than 3,000 persons when theJapanese treacherously attacked PearlHarbor and yet every month, more than3,000 people, including women and chil-dren, are horribly injured, often sufferingagonies, until death mercifully releasesthem.

It is time for Americans, which meansthe readers of this articlei in this news-paper, to determine to do something tostop traffic deaths. Every individual whodrives an automobile can make it a pointof honor to observe traffic regulations anda matter of spiritual growth to practicecourtesy on the highways.

Tie Machine 'Reaches Out

Hunters who shoot when the bushesmove sometimes kill their friends.

When the time comes to ignore anotherguy, ignore him.

The President, in a message toCongress, said he had directed Fed-eral agencies to arrange a newschedule of war production callingfor 60,000 planes in 1942, includ-ing 45,000 combat craft, and 125,-000 in 1943, including 100,000combat units; 45,000 tanks in 1942and 75,000 in 1943; 20,000 anti-aircraft guns in 1942 and 35,000in 194!3; 8,000,00 deadweight tonsof merchant ships in 1942 and 10,-000,000 in 1943.. ; '

The President told Congress hewould order the U. S. armed forceto a world-wide front to find theenemy and '"hit him and hit himagain whenever and wherever wecan reach him." He said U. S.forces would take up positions ifnecessary in the British Isles, theFar East and on all oceans andbases within and without the NewWorld necessary to protect theWestern Hemisphere.

The President proposed total ex-penditures in the fiscal year 1943of $77,000,000,000. Of this $56,-000,000,000 would be for the war.He said total war expenditures arenow at the rate of approximately$2,000,000,000 a month and maysurpass $5,000,000,000 a monthduring fiscal 1943. The Presidentsaid he could not predict ultimatecosts "because 'I cannot predict thechanging fortunes of war," but heproposed an increase in tax collec-tions to $27,000,000,000. He askedcareful Congressional considera-tion of income taxes collected atthe source, payroll taxes, excisetaxes and taxes on State and -localgovernment bonds.

Mr. Roosevelt said expendituresfor farm aid, work relief and youthaid would be reduced by the endof the 194-2 fiscal year when thetotal cost will be $1,400,000,000 orabout half of the sum for the pres-ent year.

Production Progress. The Office for Emergency (Man-

agement reported increased pool-ing- of aircraft production facili-ties within the industry and with,the auto industry, and concentra-tion on superior types of planes.The OEM said in almost everymonth of 1942 additional plantswill begin production of planeswith parts supplied "by industrialpools.

The War Department reportedat least one plant of each of the13 types required for the muni-tions program was completed in1941, making- a total of 28 now inoperation. The announcement said28 more will begin production soon.

02RM Director Kmidsen an-nounced the auto industry mustdouble its scheduled war output tohandle $5,000,000,000 additionalwar-contracts. O'PM formed a 10-member industry-labor committeeto study conversion of the industryto war products.

EmploymentLabor Secretary Perkins report-

ed,15,000,000 workers will be en-gaged in war production by the endof 1942—rthree times as many aswere so employed in the fourthquarter of 1941. There will be-only a relatively small increase intotal employment, however, MissPerkins said, because -many personsnow working in civilian-goods in-dustry will be shifted to war work.WiPA announced 3,800,000 personswere unemployed in December,100,000 less than the previousmonth- •...-..

Conservat ion Of Mater ia ls

O'PM announced industrial con-servation programs will be set upin more than 30 industrial centersto wreck old machinery and equip-ment to salvage needed materials;to minimize waste and spoilage, tohandle scrap and speed its returnto users.

0PM also recommended elimina-tion of special deliveries of milkand substitution of every-other-daydelivery for daily delivery to con-serve tires'. The agency, recom-mended manufacturers simplify thetypes of bottles and other contain-ers and eliminate those not neces-sary; ordered all tin and lead scrapunder rationing control, restricteduse of. ethyl alcohol in toilet soaps,mouth washes, rubbing alcohol,candy glazes; cut use of certainmaterials in manufacture of vend-ing machines dispensing cigarettes,food candy and other items; cutthe amount of wool for civilian useto 80 pe? cent of" last year; andrestricted the use of copper in cer-tain radio parts.

OPM granted permission to automanufacturers to make 204,848cars in January in order to use upparts already made before theplants are concerted to war pro-duction. Congress passed a lawpermitting the President to orderdaylight saving time to save elec-tric power.

PricesThe President sent a message to

Congress asking for provision fora single price administrator forall prices in the price control legis-lation now under consideration.The O'PM issued a pamphlet, "Howto "Stop Inflation," explaining innon-technical language the causesof inflation, measures taken inother countries and what can bedone here to keep prices down.The Bureau of Labor Statistics re-ported wholesale prices are nowat the highest level since 1939—17.6 per cent above this time lastyear.

The President appointed JamesM. Landis, Dean of the HarvardLaw School, as Executive of theOffice of Civilian Defense to directthe civilian defense program underthe general supervision of Direc-tor LaGuardia, who is also Mayorof New York City. The House andSenate passed and sent to confer-ence a bill appropriating $100.-000,000 for civilian defense. OCDasked its regional.directors to ob-tain from State and city govern-ments all possible equipment need-ed by the.auxiliary firemen, police-men, air raid wardens and othervolunteers. Director* McNntt ofthe Defense Health and WelfareSei-vices set up in each of the 48states and State.

Pan-American RelationsOEM announced that for the

first time in recent history, U. S.imports from Latin America havebeen larger than exports. U. S.trade in Latin America, the agencysaid, was one-third larger than inthe corresponding period of 1940and about 75 per cent larger thanin the first three quarters of 1939.The State Department elevated theU.

TIME HAS PROVED Gen. Billy Mitchell, who over adecade ago dramatically directed America's attention tothe need of creating a great air force, as having- been bothright and wrong. Mitchell urged'that the United Statesachieve world wide air superiority. In that, experiencehas proved him right. But he also demanded that a sepa-rate air force be created. In :tha.t, he has been proved tobe wrong.

The sinkings of the battleships "Prince of Wales" and "Repulse"by the Japanese has been the clinching evidence that, to be effective,fir power must move and act with, rather than independent of, landmd sea power. No one will deny the bravery of the RAP but, if'nstead of an independent air force the British had had an air armoperating as an integral part of its Far Eastern Fleet, the twobattleships, would never-.-'have been. sunk.

Criticism of the commanding admiral aside, since he was appar-ently not equal to his job, the real weakness of the British was theinsufficiency of RAF training in naval warfare. Too many past in-stances of RAF fighters "bombing- their own warships when suddenlycalled upon to aid in naval action, prevented their being brought intothe Far Eastern battle. To work effectively with naval forces, aviatorsmust know and belong to their navy.

Profiting by^experienee, the British are about ready to abandonthe separate air force idea and pattern their aviation after the UnitedStates. '

AN ADDING MACHINE will help'convince you as to who willeventually win this war, if you need any convincing-!

Allied armies, at the moment, number 15,200,000; Axis armiestotal 12,800,000. Potential Allied forces, however, can be'drawn froma manpower of 163,887,000, while .the Axis, can reach put to only28,560,000. In sea power the Allies have 1,500 war vessels of alltypes built and building; the Axis less than 700. Merchant marinetonnage shows the United States and Britain'1 leading with 32,500,000tons against Japan's 5,600,000 tons, with Germany's and Italy's ship-ping sealed up by blockade. Allied and Axis air power is about equalat the present. German factories are turning out between 2,000 and3,000. planes a month. Italian and Japanese production is small. TheBritish are now producing 2,000 planes monthly, and the UnitedStates about the same. But British air production is not yet at itspeak, and by June the United States will pass 4,000 monthly.

* » *As for raw material resources from which the weapons of war

are made and which keep them going, the Allies control 86% of theworld's supply of oil, the Axis only 3 % ; 67% of the coal, the Axisbut 29%; 64% of the iron ore, the Axis only 27%.

Finally, Germany, Japan and Italy have already reached 80%of their maximum industrial production—the British 45%, and theUnited States only 15%!

Add up the foregoing, multiply it by the time-element, in whichthe Allies are much more favored than the Axis, and the sum total is"Allied Victory!"

SHORTLY AFTER THE ATTACK on Russia by the Germans,this commentator said that in spite of prevailing doubts, the Sovietswould carry on the.struggle, come what might. Of interest is informa-tion given to us by an associate of Stalin just back from Russia:

"Stalin is determined to fight the war against the Nazis to thebitter end. He knows that on the issues of this war depend not onlythe existence of his government and his country but also his own life."

"Unfortunately, Stalin does not yet entirely trust the democra-cies. He cannot forget the abuse heaped on the Soviets for yearspast. And he has not entirely rid himself of the fear that the democ-racies might give up, or make a deal at his expense. Stalin shuddersat the possibilities of a second Munich."

"Russia's current inactivity in the Far East is easy to explain.Stalin knows very well that the Japanese intend eventually to attackhim. But he has his hands full with the Germans and for the presentdoes not want to add to his military problems. When and if hisarmies succeed in wearing down the Germans he will turn to faceRussia's traditional enemy, Japan, and no punches pulled."

"But Stalin also wants to make sure that the ABCD powers intenddoing their full share in fighting the common enemies. The final atti-tude of Stalin is dependent -on the all-out effort of the democracies.The Russians are ready for full collaboration on all fronts, but asthe Soviet ambassadors, Maisky and L'itvinov have made clear inLondon and Washington, Russia expects Britain and the United Statesto come through to the hilt."

* * *•PLANS ARE AFOOT in Washington to organize an "American

Air Cadet Corps" for boys between the ages of 12 and 18. Suggestedto Under Secretary of War for Air, Lovette, by eRagan McCrary, aNew York newspaperman, the uniformed force of youngsters is to betrained in gunnery, ordnance, meteorology, areodynamics and simplemilitary drill—everything but actual flying, which is intended tofollow when the youngsters reach selective service age.

THE SPIRIT OF OLD ABE

WASHINGTON, D. C—Ger-many's gains: One hundred millionEuropeans were added in 1941 tothe Nazi slave market; all oxsoutheastern Europe and nearlyhalf a million square miles of Rus-sian territory were occupied; Rus-sia was deprived of half her econ-omic capacity; Japanese treacher-ous attacks have imperilled theAllied positions in the western Pa-cific; continental industries andman-power have been mobilized toincrease efficiency of the Nazi ef-fort. Germany's losses: the UnitedStates entered the war; powerfulRussian armies are still in exist-ence; Europeans have recoveredfrom their stupor and are activelyengaged in fighting against Na-zism; the Allies have consolidatedtheir positions in the Near and theMiddle East; the Allies are havingthe better in the battle of the At-lantic. For. Italy, the winter of1941 brought to an end every.illu-sion of autonomy within Hitler'sempire, and brought to a climax-thetragic errors and mistakes of itsrulers. Since the day when Ger-man troops marched into Austria,Italy lost her freedom of action inexternal affairs.

been put into effect on orders fromthe German military authorities,the cause being an organized anti-German telephone campaign byItalians who have lost a son, bro-ther or fiance in Libya and Russia.Hundreds of calls daily have beenreceived by the German consulates,made from public telephone boothsby persons who give assumednames and say, "You Nazis havetaken our food, and our freedomand now you have taken our sons.It is too much. Italians wantpeace."

Swiss people report that long dis-tance calls to Italy are answered inGerman. An operator who calledMilan was surprised in making- theconnection to hear the answer"Deutsche Wehrmacht, was wun-schen Sie?" Intel-urban telephonecalls directly from private housesare now impossible. All calls mustbe put through the post office andthe parties calling must registertheir names and the reason for thecalls.

Among- the teeming- hundred mil-lions'in the East, the Filipinos arethe only Christian nation. Probablybecause of this they are closer tothe western nations than the otherAsiatics. They are fighting cour-ageously against the Japanese in-vaders and share with Americansthe impact of an attack becomingmore violent every day. The Fili-pinos know that American democ-racy corrected the errors and mod*erated the ambitions of small im-perialistic groups; that it made-itpossible- for the islanders to de-velop and progress; to achieve anautonomy that in four years wouldhave led to complete independence.They know too that under Japa-nese rule they would be reduced toslavery like the Koreans.

General Rommel and his Germanshave been obliged to abandon allCyrenaica. But Auchinleck's vic-tory is less spectacular than Wa-veil's. The enemy has been -de-feated, has lost most of his equip-ment, but so far only a small per-centage of _ his forces have been

By Elmer (Steve) Vecsey

The American League flag race in 1942 may becloser—but if it it, it'll probably be because the Yan-kees slipped a bit. At the present time, no AmericanLeague club seems strong enough to oust the worldchampions in 1942. Of course, if Spring and Wintertrades of enough significance occur, the situation maybe altered.

Take the Boston Red Sox, for instance. The RedSox have the sluggers, but no pitchers. Boston hasbeen scanning the horizon for many, many moons ina quest to locate a fre,e, independent and^ winningtwirler—or a club that is willing to part with onereasonably. They have found neither. They havewon no pennant.

And since the once-generous Mr. Yawkey hassuggested the-possibility that the Red Sox will getalong as best they can with what they've got for &while, future hope is already diminishing. Ted Wil-liams has been placed in Class 1-A and may marryMiss Springfield the army) as early as February orMarch. Thus, Boston prospects for 1942 aren't anybrighter than usual this year—they're much dimmer.

Whereas Boston used'to possess the deadliesttwo-man hitting attack in the League—Foxx and Wil-liams, if young Ted joins the army, the Red Sox willbe without their star duet. Even if Foxx remains,his ability is steadily on the downgrade. Jimmy istroubled by more than his share of illness, includingsinus trouble. Under such handicaps as Foxx has la-bored in past years, his records seem even more re-markable than ever.

A quick glance at Cleveland! The Indians with-out Bob Feller aren't the pennant contenders .of-yes-teryear. Even Clevelanders are not getting veryexcited this year about the Indians. Something mustbe lacking—and it is Feller, all right. The Indiansunder their new manager need to begin building—-ona nine-man team.

Detroit—the next to be given consideration. TheTigers are an up-and-down ball club. Had Green-berg gotten back into uniform, they would have prob-ably been up. But with Hank concentrating on theJaps, the line-up won't be as powerful as had oncebeen thought. York will be in there swinging againand the infield with Bloodworth should have pep.But the pitching is still doubtful. Newsom must haveanother big year to put the Tigers in the fight.

The White Sox will be strong, as usual—but notquite strong enough, also as usual.

A final conclusion puts the Yanks.on top easily.If they win another world's championship in '42, thatwill'be six in the last seven years—which should en-title them to a trip to the Philippines and a series withthe Japs.
