To Eat During War, He
Tells House Group.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 (U, P).— War Production Chiefi Donald M. Nelson reiterated before the house agriculture committee today his belief that the nation will have enough
food for the duration of the war.
He warned, however, that it may have to forego “luxury foods.” Mr. Nelson was called before the committee in its investigation of farm labor and production problems, which* several committee members have said must be solved if the'nation is to avoid a critical food shortage. Mr. Nelson said his assurance of sufficient food supplies made in a speech before the American Legion convention at Kansas City recently was “a considered statement.”
Smart Enough, He Says
“I believe it can be done,” he said. «I believe we are smart enough and intelligent enough’ as a nation to meet the problem.” ! Mr. Nelson emphatically repudiated suggestions that the war production board has given inadequate attention to agricultural needs and said he was aware of the importance of both its manpower and equipment problems. ! He said, however, after praising farmers for their production efforts that “as in all other industry agrilculture must get down to a basis of
said farmers may not be able to grow “luxury foods.” Quizzed on Size of Army In answer to committee members’ questions as to how large an army the nation can support, Mr. Nelson said that “very active discussions” are in progress on that. He said that: there is at present a decision on the number of men needed for thé army but that such decisions are subject to revision in the face of changing war needs. He emphasized that the civilian ecenomy must be “healthy and sound, but lean. And we don’t know yet how lean it may be.” He had discussed with farm leaders the question of priorities on farm machinery and thatsalthough some felt that there had been mistakes, there was general satisfaction with WPB policies, he said. “We can’t make all the farm equipment we would like and still supply the army, the navy and the maritime commission,” he said, “We

NAZIS USE HUNGER T0 ‘FIGHT BLOCKADE
LONDON, Oct. 2 (U.P.).— Nazi food looting in occupied countries, which -already has caused widespread hunger and threatens actual starvation this winter, is being carried out in the hope of forcing the allies to abandon their blockade, a Norwegian government spokesman said today. Confidential Nazi reports were said to have revealed that the Germans hope the position of Norway| and other occupied countries will become so desperate the allies will end’ their blockade to save millions from starvation. “It also is not impossible that the Germans are eating the food of occupled countries in order to force them, into a position where it will be possible to sign a separate peace,” the spokesman said. “Norway faces the worst winter in its history. We expect thousands to die of starvation.”
Union Weekly Told It First
SEATTRE,. Oct. 2 (U. P.).—The Aero Mechanic, union weekly, published the only newspaper account of President Roosevelt's nation-wide tour prior to the story’s official release, but authorities immediately suppressed the world scoop. The story, under the headline “Roosevelt Visits Boe€ing’s,” was carried- in the Sept. 24 issue of the paper, the weekly.organ of the Seattle Aeronautical Industrial Union. ,
Authorities seized 30,000 copies of the paper and Byron Price,
national director of the office of
censorship, requested that copies already mailed be turned in by union members. W. N. Mahlum, editor, explained that he had read nothing in the censorship code restricting news of the president’s movements and had received no warning not to publish the brief story.

Unbearably Hot
The next morning it was unbearably hot on the ground under a bright sun. Clouds were invisible in the pale blue sky. Goering’s personal squadron was operating here. Everything moving to the front on the endless open roads was subjected to ceaseless firing. Therefore the drivers’ were speeding recklessly. Under the bombing, the Volga could be crossed only at night. Herds of prisoners were marching from the front. There were German chins with many days’ red stubble. There were black-mustached Rumanians, with the faces of worn-out harlots. The .knights of “The Ladies Hairpin” division trailed behind a herd of pedigreed bulls. This division was fully routed and its banners, ‘embroidered with the design of a hairpin, soon will be exhibited in the Moscow museum.

a aI x } i, Win Approval WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 (U. P).— The office of defense transportation reported today that two out of every three Washington street car and bus passengers who tried them have voted in favor of experimental “stand-sit™ seats that increase seating capacity. The unique seats, spaced only 18 inches apart instead of the conventional 28 to 32 inches, have been used in one bus and one street car since Sept. 21. The seats are higher than normal, so that the occupants’ posture is half sitting, half leaning. ODT said, when it installed the test seats, that if approved by strap-hangers, they may be (ried elsewhere in the nation.
