THEY SAY-

Bethany, W. Va.—Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox:

"Everything we value must pay homage to omnivorous war."

San Francisco—Admiral Emory S. Land, Maritime Commission chairman:

"It is sometimes difficult for men and women in a shipyard to realize that they are performing one of the most essential tasks in this vast war effort."

Washington—Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas:

If the public accepts complacently the program of complete secrecy and lack of press coverage of the food conference, then the same rule can be applied to the more important international conferences to come later.

Washington—Charles E. Wilson, executive vice chairman of the War Production Board: "While we produced almost twice as many planes last month as we did in April, 1942, their total weight was almost three times greater."

Hot Springs, Va.—Rep. Frederick C. Smith, of Ohio: "The so-called food conference is one of the most diabolical things ever perpetrated upon the American people."

Washington—Frank Knox, secretary of the Navy: "The situation on Attu is a good deal like the situation in Tunisia when the enemy was left on Cape Bon Peninsula."

London—Sir Archibald Sinclair, British air secretary: "There is only one hope of getting to Berlin without the slaughter which the land battles of the last war entailed and that is by the paralysis of German war power by the bomber command."

Washington—Secretary of State Cordell Hull: "Dissolution of the Communist International is welcome news."

Hot Springs—Rep. Frederick Smith of Ohio, self appointed vigilante at the international food conference: "Why talk about post-war feeding when people are hungry now?"

Chicago—Dr. Eduard Benes, president of Czechoslovakia: "Next winter will be the last winter of war events in Europe."

Hot Springs—Dr. Frank G. Boudreau, nutrition expert: "You can give animals a perfectly logical diet and not get any back talk about it, but man, unfortunately, has definite ideas about what he's going to eat."
