"It would sit with and advise the president in forming broad war policies, similar to the British war cabinet and the French war ministry," sair Chairman Chamberlain. "It would give coordination, now lacking, in central direction of all the government's war operations." The hill to establish a director of munitions is modeled after the I'.ritish "aw. The eommittee propos that the director should be subordinate only to the war council and the president and not the cabinet, taking over many supply functions of the war, navy, ship building" and other branches. The dlrertor would have control of all war supplies, their production, purchase, transportation and distribution.

or will you need for next winter? OW is the time to buy, yes even for next winter, because it's clearing sale time with us and that means extra bargains in Hart Schaffner & Marx Clothes. You can consider such an expenditure the best kind of insurance against the increased prices of clothes next Fall. Wool prices have practically doubled; good qualities in clothing are scarce; a condition of the market seems at hand which may be serious. Suits and overcoats of these fine qualities will cost much more, and will be hard to get. But we clear stock of this season and we reduce the prices to affect a quick clearance because we want to release the money invested in these goods to make way for new spring goods. The values and qualities we offer now will appeal to the keen, forward looking buyers; they offer tremendous savings at these reduced prices.
