Londonâ€"British observers of Euâ€" rope‘s intrieate food problem, turning back of pages of history to the last war for guidance and some salient pointsâ€" one of them being Herbert Hoover‘s reâ€" lief program â€"have arrivyed at interestâ€" Ing eonclusions with a direct bearing on the present situation. The followâ€" ing is a description of how the British interpret the food problem. There is no hope here that the Nazis will repeat the mistakes of 1914 by exploiting the oecupied countries in a haphazard fashion, yet it is felt that mo amount of planning or careful adâ€" ministration will save Germany in the long run from the accumulation of food shortages and discontent. Belgiium is coupled with Poland and Spain in the impoverished class and her plight is greatly aggravated by having to supply large German troop eoncentrations which are fed off the surrounding country to ease the strain on German‘s overtaxed transportation system. These soldiers moreover must A quick glance at each of the naâ€" tions within the German orbit as the British view them today explains why London condoned Mr. Hoover‘s actiyâ€" ity during the First Great War and is resolutely opposed to it now. be assured of rations far above those of the Belgians themselves. Even better off are the Danes, the British declare. After the first wild slaughtering of herds when Germany laid hands on this fresh source of meat, there has been strict protection of cattle. A substantial export surplus is still available, while the people of Denmbark are said to be comparatively on easy street. One important shortâ€" age is fodder, which may in the long run prove a serious handicap. Parther north, Norway is being drained of supplies. An example cited here is that of fresh fish, which the Nazi officials are shipping off to their homeland while offering the Norweâ€" zgians scant comfort with lectures on the virtues of frugal living. France Has Problems France is the most complicated part of the continent‘s food picture because t is hopelessly tangled upâ€"and that by deliberate German design, the Briâ€" The nearâ€"by Netherlands is in much more f{favorable position. There shops have foodstuffs with which to meet the ration cards of the civilian populaâ€" tion and normal exports of dairy proâ€" duces are carried on, though not in the preâ€"war volume with the Reich.

The trade agreements mado between Germany Yugoslavia and Ruâ€" mania for the exchange of foodstufis, the British believe will never be fulâ€" .filled since Berlin hbhas asked too much. | This look at Europe‘s larders gives the impression of uneven supplies. Germany‘s job is to assure smooth disâ€" tribution and Britain‘s to cause fricâ€" ; tion.â€" Across the scene the British | aver, the shadow of Mr. Hoover‘s plan has now fallen. _ He proposes to supply essential food to the people of five small occupied ‘demoeracies. Recently he mentioned starting with Belgium. This associaâ€" tion of words ‘Hoover,‘ ‘relief‘ and ‘Belâ€" gium,‘ inevitably sets the British thumbing through the records of 1914â€" 1918. France is seen as a land beset with local problems with plenty of food here and none 50 miles away. Amid such conflict occupled FPrance appears to be better organized under German adâ€" ministration than the area southward, but throughout this country as elseâ€" where in Europe much depends on the 1941 harvest. A really bad crop would create a serious situation for the Gerâ€" mans and conquered nations alike. tish say. In the first place the nation is divided into occupied and unoccuâ€" pied zones without regard to economie interâ€"dependence. Thus the territory hneld by the Nazis is more than sufficient and the domain of Vichy at best is a poor stepchild. Cireling through the Balkans to Szechoslovakia, the opinion is that they are in a bad wayâ€"if not actually It was seen that Mr. Hoover togetâ€" her with Shaler Page, plunged into the program for the relief of Belgium, a couple of weeks after the Kaiser‘s armies invaded that country. Spon«â€" tanity marked the undertaking, which the British government accepted as a humanitarian venture on a relatively modest scale. Whitehall smiled on Mr. Hoover, the British say, once it was certain his work would be carried out under the diplomatic mantle, the official patrons being the American, Dutch and Spanâ€" ish authoritieseâ€"at jeast one neutral being a great power commanding the respect of both Britain and Germany Nothing to Gain Now The efficient, straightforward Gerâ€" mam imilitary control of Belgium was then â€"succeeded by a civil governor from Berlin and troubles arose in handling relief supplies. The war went Soon is was noted that the supplies pleased the persons living in Germanâ€" occupied Belgium and F‘rance,. Both today. on year after year, relief ships were torpedoed and it became apparent the Germans were taking large stocks of food from accupied countries while leaving the actual supplies brought by Mr. Hoover. Yet the British governâ€" ment. failed to object, as it is doing now Land for one reason. â€"It was feared that the Belgium and French workers behind the German lines would yield to pressure to have farms and in the doens of other ways they could be useful. There was even strong talk of Beigium‘s making separate peace if cut adrift by the Allies through the blockade of food supplies. Applying the lesson to the existing situation, this is what the British have concluded: the French and Belgium workers are already employed by the Germans, and nothing would be gained by catering to them, the better policy being to foster revolt by clamping the blockade on tight. Food relief under Mr. Hoover °Xxâ€" panded to such astonishing proportions between 1914 and 1918 and created so insistent a demand among those reâ€" ceiving it that if attempted today it would sweep from Spain to Norway turning into a Frankenstein, the Briâ€" tish continue. They are convinced it would be impossible to give at one place and withhold from another. Last, say the British, ample proof of German bad faith, added to the unreliable relief administrators in Belâ€" gium and France during <the First Great War, would make another ex«> periment impractical. ‘The British also point to the collapse of relief structure after Mr. Hoover left when the United States entered the war. life. and nOwWâ€"â€"â€"â€"*" "You‘re still the fiower," said the henpecked one, "but no roseâ€"I should say ‘*sn@pdragon‘" â€"FExchange hnollow of your shoulder!" criec tne musketry instructor.

I suppose the rest of Often in the course of the last conâ€" flict there ware heartâ€"searchings in government circles in London â€" and great misgivings voiced backstage, but Britain felt compelled to go on with it. Labour interest was inclined to supâ€" port Mr. Hoover whereas business men were uneasy in view of the rising shipping losses and the moot question whether the recipients of relief or the â€"tvc;c;g_--r'esources. are almost violiently opposed to Mr. Hoover‘s latest scheme for aiding Europe. bargain Finally in the FirSt O WAL there was a genuine threat Oof starvaâ€" tion, since the Germans made no care, ful plans for living off congquered lands, and this, the British now argue, does not exist.

(By Lord Beaverbrook, Minrister for Aircraft Production) Five months ago I said the @utput of aireraft and engines in July was double the output of July of last year. Now the story must be carried down. In August, September, October and November, the output of aircraft and engines was double the output of last year. That is what . the aircraft inâ€" dustry has accomplished in the face of all bombing, all the air raid warnâ€" ings, and all the interruptions suffered in public services and communcations, Roll Out the Bombers, Says the Aircraft Minister Now what about aireraft from Amerâ€" ica? When this ministry was formed the British Air Commission was set up, with a staff in the United Staetes 250 strong. It is a spendid staff. This British Air Commission bought all the airplanes and engines that are availâ€" able in the United Statesâ€"everything that could be produced for us in Amerâ€" lica. These are coming to us now in an increasing flow; very,, very many of them, fine types of fighting airplanes. According to the contracts we have entered into, there will be an increasâ€" ing flow of airplanes reaching 26,000 in the year 1942. Now are we overâ€"confidant? Yes we are a bit. And there is no justification for overâ€"confidence now. Hitler is still the military master of Europe; but not quite so much the master as he was. The German leader, when he conspired to dominate Europe, ,sat an a threeâ€" legged stool. |One leg of the stool was superiority in the air. The second was mechanized forces, tanks and airplanes and dive bombers. The third was fifth column methodsâ€"panic and fear. â€" _ On our sides we have one sure deâ€" fence: the control of the seas. Purâ€" ther, we have knocked out from under the German leader one leg of his stool ~â€"supremacy in the air by day with our fighter squadrons of Hurricanes, Spitâ€" fires, Defiants and Whirlwinds. That was the immortal story of the triumph of our air force in the August and September days, those beautiful sumâ€" mer days when the light lingered long over the secene of strife and destrucâ€" tion. New Leg to Stool Now the enemy is fashioning anâ€" other ieg to his stoolâ€"a leg that takes the place of supremacy in the air. It is the attack on our shipping at sea: the attempt to impose something in the nature of a blockade of Britain, based on raiders, on Uâ€"Boats, and on farâ€"flyâ€" ing aireraft, spying and spotting and sometimes bombing our merchantmen as they move back and forwards over the northwest approaches. It is, as yet a short leg. But it is being fashioned just the same. It may become a firmer and stronger support for the stool where MHitler sits planâ€" ning the subjugation and demoralizaâ€"« tion of mankind, But it is necessary for industry to give the navy assistance in the air. i . â€" We must recognize too the enemy is making preparations for the invasion of Britain even before the springtime comesâ€"invasion by land and sea, but principally by the air. For us it will be a hard struggle. But the builders of aircraft have had difficult tasks poâ€" fore. ‘Thanks to the men and women of the aircraft factories, who have enâ€" dured the bombings in the last seven months, we increased our strength in aircraft of all types, fighters, bombers, reconnaissance machines and trainers. We have done this job in the face of all our losses in battle, and while we have supplied these fighters and bomâ€" bers to the squadrons, we have at the same time equipped our air force in the Middle East: we are stronger on every front. f And here is the most thrilling story. All the fighters and all the bomlk:t‘s that w e lost during the four months in which the battle has raged over Britain have been paid for in full, completely and entirely by public contributions. Nearly all of the money enemy, vast in strength, almost inexâ€" haustible in devices Against these rlements of darkness the working men and women of Britain have marched doggedly, willingly and with the conâ€" wwiosness, indeed the centainty, that comes from abroad: from the colonies, from the dominions, from friendly naâ€" tions and people sympathetic to Our cause, immense sums have come. There have been funds in Britain too, but havye been funds in DLA UON the main fiow of money has been overseas. What is Wanted What is it we want now? Above everything, more bombers. That is where we want to see new records. So roll out the bomhbers! No s ez mt W mE ECC ult as But now that the shortages have been overcome and with reserves in hand, we must think more and more of new types and better engines. That is my constant preoceupation. It must be the responsibility of the aircraft fraternity in the days to come. For it is now, of course, a contest between the industrial forces of Briâ€" tain and all the resources and all the strength of the combined nations of Europe, conqueror and conquered, vicâ€" tor and vanquished. Their entire reâ€" cources, their totalitarian power of production, mobilized against Britain. That is the struggle.

Mobile Canteens These large motor driven vans follow the troops during route marches and night manoevres and supply tea and hot buns free of charge. Irrespective of weather or travelling conditions they are always on hand and eagerly greeted by the troops. Some of these canteens have been donated by generâ€" ous citizens and the others purchased outright by the organizations themâ€" selves. Should the Germans attempt to inâ€" vade England these canteens â€" will spring into prominence by supplying tea and refreshments to the fighting men in action. Mostess Mouses ‘The main purpose of hostess houses is to provide comfortable and homeâ€" like surroundings in which women and children can wait for their menâ€"folk at training camp barriers and where they can visit with men in uniform for brief periods when long leave is not obtainable. Many military and air force training centres are located in isolated districts and women, arriving often after long train journeys to visit with their husbands, sons or sweetâ€" hearts would be at a loss for a comâ€" fortable meeting place were it not for these .establishments. A rooms registry service is also proâ€" vided for those seeking homes or lodgâ€" ings as is a travellers‘ aid for the benefit of soldiers‘ relatives refugees and war guests. Entertainment Important from the point of view of helping to relieve monotony that acâ€" companies the "slack periods‘" of active service life and the lonesomeness that is brought on through absence from loved ones and home associations is the entertainment work being earried out for tha forces both in Canada and overseas. Every week entertainment officers o1 the auxiliary organizations supervise the presentation of moving pictures, arrange singâ€"songs, dances, amateur shows and contests in indoor games. pevelopment of soldier concert parties is also a regular undertaking at home and in the Ol@ Country, and through this phase of work a great many talâ€" ented young men are finding outlets for artisti¢t expression., Special Services British children removed from the United Kingdom under the evacuation plan have been provided with hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of free bedding and clothing. In this noteâ€" worthy undertaking the Canadian T. O DE. has played an especially promiâ€" nent part, having also sent to Engâ€" land in excess of 103,000 garments durâ€" ing the last three months alone for distribution among the women and children of the United Kingdom. Another splendid undertaking is the institution of a fund for the purpose of helping British women and children who have come to Canada and who are unable to obtain money because of the exchange restrictions. Many thousands of books of all types as well as magazines and newspapers, are being provided men under arms in Canada and in the Old Country as well.

Canteens Canteens operated in Canada by the various auxiliary services organizations are located in virtually every area where there are concentrations of men in training or on active service. These establishments which are of the dry type, are usually a part of recreation huts and so great is the use made of them by members of the three forces that they have become what, in effect are small departmental stores. Here the men can purchase ice cream, soft drinks, milk, tea, ,c,offee, pies, sandwiches, .chocolate bars, hanâ€" dles for kit bags, tobacco, cigarettes, shaving and dental supplies, handkerâ€" chiefs, shoe laces and scores of other articles. All of the auxiliary organizations operating canteens have entered into an agreement whereby five per cent. of the gross receipts are turned over to units served which the balance, after operating expenses have been deducted is placed in the hands of a board especâ€" ially appointed by the government, to be used for the benefit of the men folâ€" lowing demobolization, and their deâ€" pendants. Residential Clubs QOverseas In London there are comfortable, spacious and conveniently located resiâ€" dential clubs where officers and other ranks can find bed and meals at miniâ€" mum rates. The Canadian Legion for instance, operates the Canadian Legion Club for n.c.o.‘s and other ranks and provides bed and breakfast at three shillings (about 72¢) per night; the Canadian Salavation Army maintains the West Central Hotel, where similar facilities are offered to all members of the Canadian forces at two shillings, six pencee (about 59¢c) per night. In addition to a number of other establishments whose doors are open to our boys in London, the Canadian Y. M. C. A. runs the famous Beaver QIuD which was provided and equipped with funds subscribed by the Canadian Red Cross and a group of Canadians in London.. This Club, while it has no slceping accommodation, has modern restaurant and is attractively furnished A special work of auxiliary organizaâ€" tions in London is to look atter the welfare and personal comfort of the men while they are in the city. Inâ€" formation bureaus are established in many sections, incoming trains and buses carrying Canadians are met and the men directed to their destinations, and travel information for those gdesirâ€" ing to visit relatives or historie parts of the Old Country is provided.
