1943 Will Be Toughest Year' Burnes Warns
Washington. (INS)—"The coming year is going to be the hardest, toughest year our generation has had to endure."
This was the warning yesterday from James F. Byrnes, director of economic stabilization. His warning was made in an off-the-record speech before the convention of the American Society of Newspaper Editors on Feb. 13 and was released last night by the Office of War Information.
Byrnes pleaded that "we stop fighting each other," and scored those who say "we can win the war in 1944 as well as 1943," and therefore "must be careful not to try to do too much at this time."
Approves Constructive Criticism
Warning against undermining of public confidence in the government, but approving of constructive criticism, he appealed to the editors to assist him in presenting the government's anti-inflation program to the public and staunchly defended two aspects of it—extension of the work week to 48 hours and incentive payments to farmers.
Byrnes said that "we need a minimum 48-hour week to make the most effective use of our manpower and to increase production." He declared that it was impossible to abolish overtime pay when ordering a 48-hour week "without risking an even greater threat to our stabilization program than that alleged to be involved in overtime pay." More Taxes, Savings Necessary.
He declared that the only solution for the inflationary of higher wages from overtime pay lay in further curbs on excess purchasing power through higher taxes, more enforced and voluntary savings, and payment of private debts.
Allied Troops Force Nazis Into Retreat
For the second time in his career as German commander in Africa, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel turned his face to the east today. Unlike the previous occasion, when he romped from Bengasi to the gates of Alexandria at the head of his Afrika Korps, his eastward drive today was full-scale retreat, with American and British forces pounding and pressing him relentlessly through the narrow files of Kasserine Pass.
A communique from Allied forces headquarters in North Africa made it amply clear that Rommel is on the run again, just as he ran westward from El Alamein when the British Eighth army under Gen. Sir Bernard Law Montgomery launched its historic offensive.
Italians Bear Brunt
Once again, Rommel's disillusioned and war-weary Italian arms-bearing slaves appeared to be bearing the brunt of the disaster. The Italians have been left behind to act as rear guards to protect the German retreat and are, as always, surrendering by the hundreds.
According to Secretary of War Stimson, current operations in Asia "mark a clean-cut repulse for the Axis armies after initial German victories." Allied casualties were heavy in men and equipment, he reiterated, but was able to tell his press conference that some of the lost armament already has been replaced, a magnificent tribute to America's services of supply. Societies Push Onward
On other fronts, Soviet armies pushed forward steadily and the Japanese suffered punching blows in the Far East. Russian troops delivered a series of powerful blows along the whole Soviet front.
General Douglas MacArthur's bombers carried out widespread raids on enemy bases in the South-west Pacific and RAF planes attacked in Europe and in Burma, slashing at Wilhelmshaven in Germany and Japanese bases in the Far East.

Nursery Drive Ends Today
A drive for funds to support the Jayhawk Nursery ended today as CVC members tagged all contributors on the campus. The student drive was climaxed by the showing of several moving pictures in Fraser theater to all persons wearing tags. If enough interest is shown in the old-fashioned films which were run, other old films may be shown in the future, Harlan Cope, College junior working on the drive, announced.
In connection with the drive a moving picture called "History of the Cavalcade of Old Movies" and several shorts were shown in Fraser hall Wednesday afternoon. Proceeds from the 20 cent admission charge go to the Nursery funds. Before the drive started $1500 was needed to complete the goal of $3500. The results of this student drive are not yet complete.
The Jayhawk Nursery at Foxhill near Rugby, England, was a gift last year from students, faculty, and some friends of the University to British children either orphaned by the war or without homes because their fathers are in armed services and their mothers in munitions factories. The University entirely supports the Nursery which houses 35 children and cares for them with trained nurses and dieticians.
Contributes From Taxes
The state of Minnesota contributed from tax funds 36.5 per cent of the income of the University of Minnesota during the fiscal year that ended June 30,1942.
