WHAT VETS WANT IN WAY OF NEW JOBS A SURVEY OF A REPRESENTATIVE cross section of those in the armed forces definitely indicates that a large proportion of those fighting the nations battles do not want to return to the jobs they held in prewar days. That should not be surprising to those of us on the home front. A very large proportion of those fighting men left us as boys just breaking across the threshold of young manhood. The jobs they held, if any, were the jobs assigned to immature youth. They represented the starting places in industry and business. They were the apprentices and junior clerks. They did not call for mature ability, vision or responsibility. From such jobs they would advance as maturity and ability de, veloped. Those who left us as boys will return, if at all, as mature men. Their years of absence have been filled adventure. They with have had thrust upon them, and have accepted, responsibility far greater than anything they would have had in the jobs they held in their prewar days. They have demonstrated their ability to perform as the mature men they are today. It is not to be wondered at. and should not be expected, that boys whose maturity has been attained in the trying schools of the battle fronts, should wish, and expect, to fill a mans job when he returns. It was not acquiring a knowledge of the minor details of a business that would have assured them advancement had they remained at home. It was proven ability to accept and to demmaster responsibility; onstrate leadership; to think quickly and intelligently of problems that faced them, that would have meant advancement to better than a boys job. They have learned and mastered all of these things in the hard school of the battlefield. They bring back from that school, not merely three to five more years of age, but half a lifetime or more of developing experience. They left us as boys, they return as fully matured men, and are entitled to such place in the 'postwar world as maturity and a sense of responsibility would provide. Employers are morally obligated to provide jobs for those employees who went to war. It is not the boys places they left, but the higher places, those demanding maturity, experience, ability to .accept responsibility, they should be given. Those who have succeeded as fighting men can be counted upon to capably fill those better jobs of civilian life in the postwar world. In Naming New Cabinet Heads; Japs Tighten Hold on Homeland f Hl.Phillipr GLOBAL CLASSIFIED ADS RATE OF EXCHANGE BETWEEN FRANCE AND U. S. THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT appeases General De Gaulle and the French government at the expense of the American soldier serving in France ana Germany. The American soldier is paid in French francs. For G.I. Joes $30 monthly pay he receives 5,000 French francs, but the commercial exchange rate, on which the price of French merchandise is based, would give Joe 25,000 francs for his $50 five times what For the fictitious he receives. value we place on the franc in so far as paying our soldiers is conface for the cerned, maintains French it means the American soldier receives only the equivalent of $10 instead of $30 a month. Naturally the G I. Joes do not like the practice. He would prefer receiving his pay in American dollars which he could exchange at any French bank for 25,000 francs. It is the French, not the American, government that profits at Joes expense. MANAGEMENTS JOB IN U. S. INDUSTRY ENGLISH INDUSTRIALISTS sent an investigating commission to this country to find, if possible, why American Industrial plants could out produce those of England. In the report made to British industry the commission said there was a small percentage of difference in effectiveness on the part of the American worker as compared with the English worker. In the matter of management, and tools resulting from that management, they credited America with an advantage of from 60 to 80 per cent. It is that efficient management, resulting in more improved plant equipment, representing a much higher investment per worker employed, that makes it possible for us to compete in world markets despite our much higher wage scale. It is a condition that would not exist under any system of government operation of industry. JOHN DOAK MR. have together an income of $2,500 a year. Out of that they pay more than $500 for government, local, state and federal. On the same amount of income in 1910 John Doaks father and mother paid for government only $72, and that bought all the government they wanted or needed. Government is one product on which we need a price ceiling. AND Cabinet Changes President Harry S.

Doenitz arrest followed Allied declarations that he was being allowed to operate as an ersatz fuehrer to complete the formal surrender of German air, sea and ground forces. His mission virtually accomplished, Doenitz was taken into custody along with other members of the German general staff, said to be facing from 10 to 15 years of imprisonment.

Once head of the dread Nazi police that kept both Germany and occupied countries under thumb, Himmler swaggered to his end, personally slipping on his glasses to identify himself when first detained, then shaking loose the poison vial attached to a gum to gulp the contents while being examined. Even before his seizure, Himmlers wife had believed him a suicide. "Hes better off dead," she had said then. "Theyre all better off dead."

Lessened demands following Germanys capitulation plus the tremendous production of the industry made possible an increase of from four to six gallons in the A card gas ration and the boost in the maximum B allotment to 650 miles a month for the whole country. Because of the necessity of rearranging manufacture, transportation and distribution facilities, the increased rations will not become effective before June 22 for the A and June 11 .for the B cards. With the bulk of U. S. shipping slated to haul supplies over greater distances to the Pacific theater, transport demands for fuel will be even larger than for the German-Ja- p fronts combined, thus dimming any prospects for an increase in oil rations for home heating.
