Editor and Proprietor WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS Fk New United Nations Attacks Predicted As Leaders Determine Grand Strategy; Frenchmen Reach Military Agreement; Push Germans Out of Russia: Stalin Farmers Problems Now Exceed Others The farmers problems in this war are much more difficult than those of most other people, says Roy E. Moser, extension economist of the Massachusetts State college extension service. This is due mainly to the fact that the farmer must finance both his job and his home at the same time. The majority of people work for someone else and their jobs are financed for them. On the other hand, the farmers opportunities to BARBERS WANTED BARBERS WANTED For Army near Marysville, Calif.

Forward to the routing of the German invaders and their expulsion over the boundaries of our motherland. So declared Josef Stalin in an order of the day broadcast by the Moscow radio. His words, urging the Russians to throw the Nazis out of their country, became the rallying cry of the Red army as it pushed forward in the big offensives aimed at Kursk, Kharkov and Rostov. After the fall of these strategic points there were still miles of hard battling ahead, but for the first time since the Nazis started their invasion of Russia there were definite signs that Stalins plea was not idle thinking. For everywhere along the front froffi' Leningrad to the Caucasus the Reds added momentum to their drive. Russian military quarters estimated that 40 per cent of the Axis effectives had been knocked out by the Red winter offensive. At the same time diplomatic circles revealed that United Nations air and sea supply lines to Russia were getting much better protection than a few months ago because losses on these routes have dropped sharply. One recent U. S. convoy was reported to4 have reached Russia without loss of a single ship. It was indicated that close U. - Russian was making this possible. military leaders. tip-o- et 10-d- Africa-Mediterrane- an ff far-flu- ng FARM PICTURE: Incentive Plan orities for the synthetic rubber proFinally the dispute was gram. brought into the open when Jeffers, in a Baltimore address, lashed out at army and navy expediters in war plants. Congress decided to investigate his charges and Donald Nelson, war production chief, admitted the fact that a tift in government ranks had resulted over this issue. Most Washington sources knew that President Roosevelt.would be required to step in as arbiter in the dispute. The quarrel centers around steel rubber priorities for synthetic plants. Army and navy officials believe that these plants should be built only in direct relation to the military needs of steel for the production of such items as gasoline, airplanes, escort vessels and merchant ships. Jeffers contended that the production efforts high-octa- ne could be worked out in conjunction with one another and without hampering progress in his synthetic rubber program.

Beware Coughs from common colds Congress is already considering e the extension of the act by another year to June 30, 1944. This early action has been taken to insure an uninterrupted flow of war materials between the United States and our fighting Allies. Though there are some verbal outbursts expected on the role of Harry Hopkins in the program, even Republican minority leaders in congress predict approval of an extension for the plan. Two years ago when it was first introduced the United States was not at war and there evolved one of the greatest legislative battles of history over passage of the measure putting the idea in motion. That Hang On lend-leas- Representative Sol Bloom introduced the new measure just one day after Edward R.

S. producers stand to pick up an extra 100 million dollars in subsidy payments to be awarded for meeting or exceeding greatly expanded farm production goals. Applicable to soybeans, grain sorghums, peanuts, sweet potatoes, flax and dried peas, the program would pay growers of these crops extra benefits for each acre on which they exceed 90 per cent of their goal-- up to 110 per cent of that goal. These are products which are badly needed in the war effort to meet deficiencies in yegetable oils and proteins for animal feeding and human consumption. Wickard stated further that added labor and materials will have to be available to farmers if they are to meet the goals of the program.
