Defense Bargains Could Guard Atlantic Pacific Frontiers
RAY TUCKER discusses tentative agreements among four great powers to shape axis terms, especially Japan, with potential for a two ocean US navy and vast air forces.

Three Areas Selected For Preliminary WPB Study
Three WPB regions centered in Cleveland Philadelphia and Kansas City are to host a limited laboratory test of civilian use of idle and surplus metals. The plan would allow small plants to buy idle stocks and sell produced goods without regard to purchaser priority, with restrictions on area eligibility and plant size.
