Survey Shows Not Many Women Working In State War Plants

E WHO DON'T LIKE THE IDEA of drafting manpower should take a second glance at the report of William H. Spencer who is the manpower director for the states
of Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin,
In the last 12 months Indiana has led the Midwest by ‘increasing employment 41.5 per cent (from September, 1941, And by March next year employ-

VICTORY LOAN
December, Biggest In History.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30 (U. P.). —The greatest financing campaign in history opened today when: an army of 50,000 volunteers started ringing doorbells in every community of the nation in an unprecedented effort to get the American people to lend upwards
buy the armaments needed to achieve victory over the axis.
Every farmer, professional man, housewife, or worker with $25, and corporate organizations with cash running into $100,000,000 should find a victory loan salesman on the doorstep during the next 30 days. Banks, insurance companies, corporations and labor unions will be canvassed, as well as the millions of individuals listed as bank depositors, brokerage customers or insurance policy holders. For the victory fund salesmen. most of them recruited from. the banks and securities firms, it will be a straight month-long job of bringing down to earth the language of billion-dollar financing and translating it into terms of a $25 tax note or a $50,000 treasury bond.
aged the financing of foreign governments and thousands of business ventures have no doubt that this drive will bring in $3,000,000,000 more than the $9,000,000,000 goal set by the treasury.
Lessens Inflation
But they are not minimizing the enormity of the job or the consequences to themselves and the national economy if they fail. The bankers, probably the most outspoken critics of past treasury financing efforts, were consulted at
this unprecedented borrowing program and a large share of the responsibility for failure would fall directly on them, The banks also realize they will have to buy whatever portion of the loan is not taken by the public and other non-banking investors, with all the inflationary implications of that course. The main objective of this and all succeeding programs will be to see that as much of the borrowed money as possible is cash that would otherwise be spent on consumer goods and thereby add to the already serious inflation threat. Some of the facts the salesmen will try to present at every frontdoor in the United States in the next 30 days include: The cost of war to the United States has now reached the staggering rate of $1,500,000,000 a week, plus more than $100,000,000 weekly for ordinary government expenses. All the taxes provided in the Federal Revenue Act of 1942 will bring in only $24,000,000,000 of the revenue needed for this fiscal year, leaving $60,000,000,000 to be borrowed.
Securities Listed
The banks are perfectly capable {of lending the entire sum to the | government—if no one were concerned about inflation—but their participation probably will be limited to about $24,000,000,000 annually. The rest will have to come from outside the banking system. The securities the bond army will| > offer include: Twenty-six year 2% per cent vie- | tory bonds, which the banks cannot purchase until after they have been outstanding 10 years. One and three-fourts per cent bonds due June 15, 1948, with bank subscriptions = limited to $2,000,000,000. Seven-eights per cent certificates of indebtedness, with bank subscriptions also limited to $2,000,- * 000,000. War savings bonds, of which series F and G are npw known as United States bonds. Series E, the ones sold popularly in small denominations, still are known as war savings bonds. Tax savings notes. No limit has been placed upon the amount of any of the issues which will be sold, the $9,000,000,000 goal merely being the minimum amount the treasury must have for its present needs in financing the war,

DEPARTMENT STORE
SALES HIGHER HERE
Indianapolis department stores, in the week ending Nov. 21, reported sales increases averaging 34 per cent greater than the same week last year, the Federal Reserve bank of Chicago said today. The bank said that much of the gain was due to the fact that Thanksgiving was celebrated a week earlier last year than this which resulted in the fact that the week ending Nov. 21 this year had six working days as compared with only five in. the comparable week last year. However, Christmas shopping which started earlier this year than last. year, also contributed to the gain. For the three weeks ended Nov. 21 this year Indianapolis department stores sales were 32 per cent ahead of a year ago and for the four weeks were an equal percentage over the 1941 period.

FOR MORE FOOD
Appeals to Farmers for Dawn-to-Dark Effort In 1943.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30 (U.P) .—
A
"| Secretary of Agriculture Claude R,
Wickard, warning of more food ra- 4 farmers for a “dawn to dark” effort to increase food production in 1043 to help the united nations, He asked for a 10 per cent ine crease in livestock products withe out reducing total crop acreage and pledged government aid te farmers “through all the means available” to meet the record goals, The 1943 farm production goals call for more meat and milk—*all we can produce’—more poultry and eggs, more vegetables high in food value, more corn and less wheat, more peanuts, more potatoes, dry beans and peas, more long-staple and short-staple cotton.
‘A Crucial Task’
“The goal represents the most srucial and important task our farme ers have ever been asked to per form,” Wickard said in announcing ' the new program. “The role of American food in the war strategy of the united nations puts the farmers on the front line and dice tates the trends of our 1943 farm } production program. “Hitler uses starvation and loot= ing as a weapon of conquest. The united nations’ strategy calls for the use of food as a weapon for liberation to build ever-increasing :power against the axis.” Production up to the goals—calling for the fourth successive year of record farm production—still would fall short of meeting food needs of the united nations, Mr, Wickard said. Many foods will have to be rationed.
Work Dawn to Dusk
“Because of labor shortages and fewer machines, farm families will have to work from dawn until dusk if they are to meet their goals,” Mr, Wickard said. “We in the publie service can do no less.” At least one-fourth of all 194% food production will be needed for the military forces and lend-lease, he said. That would be double the 1942 requirements. There will be less food in 1943 for civilian consumption. Although Wickard called for the greatest effort in history to increase food production, he acknowledged that it would be virtue ally impossible to equal the record 1942 crops.
