This Week in Defense
The President created by Executive order a seven-member Supply, Priorities and Allocation Board, with Vice-President Wallace as chairman and Donald M. Nelson, formerly OPM Purchase Director, as Executive Director. The board will fix priorities and allocate supply of materials, fuel, power and other commodities of all kinds to meet the demands of the Army and Navy, the defense-aid program, the policies of economic warfare and the needs of the civilian population. Members of the board are OPM Directors Knudsen and Hillman, War and Navy Secretaries Stimson and Knox, Price Administrator Henderson, and Lend-Lease Supervisor Hopkins. Under the order, the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply become the Office of Price Administration and a Civilian Supply Division is created in the OPM to protect the interests of consumers. Both will be headed by Leon Henderson, who was OPACS administrator. The order also transferred Edward R. Stettinius from his post as OPM Priorities Director to that of Lend-Lease Administrator and appointed Mr. Nelson as Priorities Director. AID TO BRITAIN, CHINA, RUSSIA — The President announced a military mission will go to China to study the need of China for equipment and materials and expedite lend-lease aid. State Secretary Hull stated the United States will maintain the policy of freedom of the seas in shipping supplies to Russia via the Pacific. The President told his press conference an organized campaign of rumors, malicious half-truths, and falsehood regarding miscues of lend-lease funds had been launched to sabotage the program of aid to opponents of the Axis. AGRICULTURE — OPM gave priority to deliveries of materials necessary for the production of parts for the repair and maintenance of existing farm equipment and manufactured of new farm machinery. The President vetoed a bill to withhold from the normal channels of trade Government-owned cotton and wheat, because "in time of war, or when war can foresee how soon these stocks may be needed." ARMY — The War Department announced creation of a tank parachute battalion and a fifth armored division. The army also amended its regulations to permit discharge of enlisted men to accept navy commissions when the navy so desires. AIR—Artemus L. Gates of New York, World War navy flier, was appointed Assistant Secretary of Navy for Aeronautics. Twenty-eight new Army Air Corps units were formed, including 26 school squadrons of 200 men each. The Army Air Forces began tests of the B-40F, latest of a series "giving excellent performances abroad," and sent Major General Pratt, Chief of Air, to Africa and the Mediterranean area with a mission to study planes in action and needs of the British. CIVILIAN DEFENSE — The Army announced it will test the air defense and air warning system of the northeastern United States in maneuvers October 9 to 16. Approximately 43,000 volunteer civilians in the system will participate. A preliminary report of the mission sent to England by the Office of Civilian Defense recommended fingerprinting of every United States citizen for identification of casualties and that necessary civilian defense personnel, including police and firemen, be exempt from military service. OCD Director LaGuardia reported the nationwide survey in the aluminum campaign showed 14,000,000 pounds of scrap, yielding 10,500,000 pounds of aluminum, or enough for 2,800 fighting planes, has been collected. PRICES — Associate Price Administrator Elliott suggested housewives halt market price rises by writing the Price Administrator's consumer division in Washington or local-defense advances in costs of living, by consulting city and county officials to see whether increases are justified; buying this win-ter's coal now; reporting rapid rises in rents to state and local housing agencies; buying Defense bonds instead of new cars, refrigerators, washing machines or other household appliances. The Office of Price Administration set ceiling prices on animal hair used in mattresses, rayon grey goods, dimities, voile and combed broadcloth—thus covering almost all textiles required for women's dresses, men's shirts, underwear, coat and suit linings, handkerchiefs, sheeting and other items of cotton and rayon. CONSERVATION OF MATERIALS — OPM requested bicycle and furniture manufacturers to conserve materials by simplyfying models and designs, eliminating brass, chrome, nickel, copper and metallic finishes; white side-walled tires and units reclaimed instead of raw rubber. The Division of Consumer Supply asked consumers to take special care of their cars, cut down on consumption of tires, gas and oil offered a check-list to aid in conservation. WPA inaugurated a program to salvage steel from abandoned street-car-owned street car rails. The War Department reported it had found recapped and retreaded auto tires gave 80 per cent of the service of new tires and cost 60 per cent less. DOCTORS, DENTISTS, NURSES—Federal Security Administrator McNutt announced an agency will be set up to mobilize physicians and dentists to meet special demands for medical care arising from the defense program. Plans will take into account distribution of doctors and dentists in relation to population, training and experience and their availability for service. Red Cross headquarters and the OCD announced plans to train 100,000 volunteers as nurses' aides with the help of local hospitals. Volunteer aides, between the eighteen and fifty, graduates of high school, physically able; they will be selected by local public health and nursing groups and given an eight-week to graduate nurses in hospitals without pay after 80 hours of intensive training over a seven-week period. SELECTIVE SERVICE—Headquarters directed local draft boards to speed arrangements for aiding in the re-employment of soldiers the Army is planning to release beginning September 1 by getting in touch with former employers or finding other jobs for the soldiers. In the first case of its kind, a discharged selectee from New York was returned to his former job after the local U. S. attorney requested his firm take him back for at least one year although the firm said his job had been abolished while he was gone. OIL, GASOLINE — President Roosevelt told his press conference the mounting of naval oil tankers already on the ways and the operation of two pipe-lines from the Southwest to the eastern seaboard will materially relieve the gasoline shortage in the East by next spring. Price Administrator Henderson issued a table of fair maximum retail prices for "regular" gasoline in forty major cities, and the Senate began an investigation of the shortage. Acting Oil Coordinator Davies said "sinister and planned" sabotage lay behind the "multiplicity of misinformation" that there is really no shortage. NEW PLANTS AND FACILITIES — The Government contracted for the following new plants; pig iron, Carondelet, Youngs-town, Warren, Ohio and Birmingham, Ala., $58,312,000; to build naval vessels, Camden, N. J., $15,000,000; airplane parts, Chicago, Ill., $8,456,175.
