THE ALLIED CAUSE

SUPERCHARGER NEEDED “Britain is now virtually fully mobilised for fighting and the manufacture of arms and munitions. Man for man, mbr e war material is being produced than anywhere else in tie world. No other country has equalled thie fullness and fairness, in relation to available supplies, bf British food rations. The programme of curtailment which began with the limitation of supplies of material to civilian manufacturers, and went on, ofWfi haltingly and often reluctantly, totho concentration of manufacture, clothes rationing and utility productioh, jhas not been rivalled. For a long year Britain was the lone base and arsenal of freedom. The process has been inyerterately piecemeal. The Conception of a rounded war economy, binding the entire community in ; A single war-time association of efficient effort, has never been seen as a whole. But the achievement has been immense.' What is needed now is a supercharger, a One-Year Plan ytfth pace enough to make Up for fife time lost earlier and vision enough to capture the next twelve months for the Allied cause.”—“The Economist,” London.
