We are going to export a larger proportion of our output, especially of textiles. To make that possible without new hardships 1n this coun- try the government 1s going to ap- peal io the textile industries to produce more. Does Mr. Dalton really think that they can? Are they going to have enough coal and electricity to work even as much as they are doing? And 1f they have, how many operatives will agree to work overtime when there is so little on which to spend the extra pay-and when the treasury takes so much 0t 1t. in tax?

High food prices are not prim- arily due to the huge shipments of American foodstuffs abroad, Dr. John D. Black, Internationally known farm economist of Harvard University, points out. Though the United States sent 18,000,000 tons 0t food to Europe last year and is continuing to ship food, these exports make up only live per cent. of America's food supply. Dr. Black reports. This 1s a smaller percentage than 1s gener- ally thought. Even as little u five per cent has s significant ettect,

When you get right down to basic facts or brass tacks, the nickel is an illustration at what troubles our economy today.

However, the makers ot the goods which we must buy have e. problem too - they can't. produce so much ea they ueeil to tor that, some nickel.
