Financing
War Production
FROM all sides the cry is "More ships! More
planes! More tanks!" But America has
learned that the miracle of mass production
is not accomplished over night. It requires
planning, building, tooling up—and financing.
You haven’t heard much about the financing
end because it has been going smoothly.
America’s banks have been on the job every
minute taking care of the credit needs in their
communities, advancing the billions needed
to get production rolling. This bank is on the
alert for every opportunity to lend.

A WEEK OF THE WAR
(Continued from Page 1)
as his special representative in
order to correct the impression in
those places that U. S. production
is not all it should be. Mr. Will
kie will carry messages from the
President to foreign leaders, in
cluding Premier Stalin. The
President issued a statement that
the perpetrators of the “barbaric”
acts in occupied countries “will
have to stand in the courts of
law" in the same countries in
which barbarism now rages, and
answer in those courts for their
crimes.
Army and Navy
The War Department said it
will inaugurate this fall a volun
tary pre-induction training pro
gram utilizing existing facilities
of schools and colleges to meet
present and future needs for prop
erly trained personnel in the
armed forces. Out of every 1Q0
men inducted into the Army,
about 63 are assigned to duties
requiring specialized training, the
department said. The Army said
it is organizing and training port
batalions (composed mostly of
former stevedores) for duty over
seas to insure prompt handling
of U. S. military equipment for
forces stationed throughout the
World. The Department said
checks in payment of allowances
to dependents of enlisted men of
the army, covering first applica
tions to be approved, will go out
shortly after September 1..
The Navy announced recruiting
of enlisted personnel of the Wom
en’s Naval Reserve will begin
September 11, and training will
start October 9 at the University
of Wisconsin, Indiana University
and Oklahoma A. & M. College.
Selective Service
Selective Service Director Her-1
shey said draft boards will begin j
calling men with dependents be-!
fore Christmas. He said single
men with “secondary” depend
ents, such as aged or crippled rel
atives, will be called first; married
men whose wives work, next;1
then men with dependant wives; j
and finally men who have wives
and children. He said the reser
voir of 1-A men throughout the
country is “practically exhausted.”
Selective Service headquarters
said Class 1-B (men fit for limited
military service only) will be
eliminited, and beginning Sep
tember 1, all registrants who are
not totally disqualified will be
reclassified in 1-A, while those
not suited for any military ser
vice will be placed in 4-F. In the
case of men reclassified in 1-A, the
army will determine after induct
ion whether they will be assigned
to full or limited service.
Stabilization of Farm Prices
Secretary of Agriculture Wick
ard said he would approve a plan
of livestock ceiling prices which
‘‘must not permit abnormal prof
its to anyone in the industry at
the expense of the producers or
consumers.” Mr. Wickard also
said he now favors repeal of the
provision of the Price Control
Act ‘‘that prohibits ceilings on
processed farm products if the
ceiling price reflects a farm price
of less than 110 percent of parity.”
He said farm prices ‘‘have reached
parity on an average. The WPB
food requirements Committee
asked the Armed Forces, the Lend
lease Administration, and the War
Production Board to collaborate
in working out a program for al
location of all government meat
purchases as equitably as possi
ble among federally inspected
packers. The Agricultural Mar
keting Administration bought
$137,900,000 worth of foodstuffs
during July for the United Na
tions and other requirements, in
cluding 80,000 pounds of dehy
drated beef.
Rationing
Tire quotas will have to follow
a downward trend the rest of this
year to keep within the amount
of rubber earmarked by the WPA
for the purpose, the Office of.
Price Administration said. The
Office asked local rationing
boards for the "strictest possible
interpretation” of a recent
amendment to tire rationing reg
ulations restricting truck eligibil
ity to vehicles essential to the
war effort or public health and
safety.
Oil and Gasoline
WPB Chairman Nelson ap
pointed under Secretary of War
Patterson, Petroleum Coordina
tor Ickes and Price Administra
tor Henderson as a committee to
determine whether fuel oil should
be rationed in the east coast area
this winter. Because of shortage
of fuel oil in the area, Mr. Ickes
prohibited the hauling of automo
tive gasoline by rail in 20 middle
western and southwestern states
in order to divert enough tank
cars to carry 100,000 barrels of
fuel oil daily to the rationed area.
If the withdrawal of these 5,000
to 7,000 tank cars creates a short
age, rationing should be extend
ed, Mr. Ickes said.
