ACROSS CRIMEA

Report Nazis Haven't Heart To Make Substantial

Resistance.

(Continued From Page One) '

the pincers drive into the Crimea was sweeping the defenders backward “like chaff” except in the tough Ishum hills positions before the central plains, which had been by-passed by .the column striking across the Sivash sea to Dzhankoi, rail junction controlling all lines in the northern Crimea. By yesterday morning, field reports said, all the basic defenses of the Peekop isthmus and the Sivash coast had been overrun, and the Russians swept out of the steppes through Dzhankoi, The capture of Kerch and conquest of the eastern end of the Crimean peninsula was described as an equally brilliant feat. Captured German documents revealed that the Nazi command thought the Kerch fortifications were “impregnable.” A Soviet encirclement threat forced the defenders to abandon the town and fall back to the west. The northern drive reaching up to 37 miles split the axis garrison with the capture of Dzhankoi.

Outflank Ishun

The break-through outflanked the Ishun hill defenses delaying another Soviet column at the base of the Perekop isthmus to the northwest, while the third, force -lppped off the eastern end of the Crimea by capturing 2500-year-old Kerch and breaking the ancient Turkish wall nearly 18 miles to the west. Other Soviet armies on the embattled southern front forced the Siret river in Romania and captured Pascani junetion on the CernautiBucharest railroad 41 miles west of Iasi, pushed into the suburbs of Tiraspol in a drive to wipe out the last sizable German bridgehead in the Ukraine, and killed thousands more Germans and Romanians in a battle of extermination against the routed garrison of Odessa.

Kaiser Urges Industry Get Post-War Orders Now

plan. Manufacturers can't be sure they'll be able to carry out their plans until they .have orders. Bankers can't be sure it's safe to lend money to finance industrial

expansion until industry has orders. “And workers can’t be sure that they're going to have jobs until their employers have orders. “Here's what I mean: Before the war my own enterprises had about 5000 employees, Now they have 330,000. Well, recently we asked 90,000 of these workers in one west-coast plant some questions about their post-war planning. “We asked them what they intend to do after the war, and 62,500 of them said they want to go on working for Kaiser, We asked them whether they have saved enough money to do some substantial buying after the war, and 94 per cent of them said yes. About one-fourth of these said they hoped to buy homes, and about one-third of them hadn't decided what to buy. “I suspect that third, and a whole lot more, won't buy anything they don't absolutely have to buy until theyre convinced that Kaiser, or someone, is going to have jobs for them. “Now, if those 90,000 workers are a fair sample, well over half of the 330,000 people in our total force are hoping that Kaiser will have jobs for them. But neither Kaiser now any other employer can guarantee jobs unless he has orders waiting to be filled.

Job Certainty

“No certainty of jobs without production. No certainty of production without orders. No cere tainty of orders without selling. That's why I want to know, when does the selling start?” Washington authorities may be right in discouraging the idea of any large-scale industrial reconversion until after success for the big invasion of Europe is reason-! ably assured, Mr. Kaiser conceded. “On. that,” he said, “I bow to

military judgment. But my judg- | ment as a production man tells me that the output of war goods is rising constantly, and the number of man-hours needed to produce a given amount of war goods is steadily coming down. My feeling is that very soon after the invasion there is like tp be a great deal of unemployment in war industry. “Well, are we going to tell workers let out of war industries to sit around for months with nothing to do? I certainly hope not, for I think a lot of postwar plans may go out the window forever if that happens,

Need Careful Timing

“Maybe we're worrying too much about the physical side of reconversion—changing machines and the like—and not enough about the selling side. Careful timing is going to be essential there. If

we want to develop markets after

the war, and develop them in

time, there should be at least six months of taking orders for postwar delivery before the war ends. “Delivery dates couldn't be fixed exactly, of course, and prices quoted might have to be subject to reasonable change. But I be lieve smart industry can well do some bold post-war pricing as well as planning, now, for neitther high wages nor any other likely factor seems to me to justify the high prices some people are talking about as inevitable after the war. “If industry, with orders waiting on the books, gets into volume output for the peacetime market quickly, mass production can keep prices down in spite of high wages. And high wages can make it possible for more people to buy more goods. “Some men in Washington seem to think it would be bad for morale—that people would let down in the war effort —if post-war selling were allowed to start. I wonder whether uncertainty about jobs after the war, among civilians and fighting men too, isn't a whole lot worse for
