Biggest Grabber Hogger of the most territory during 1940 was Adolph Hitler, the leader of Germany. He spread Nazi rule roughly over 237,000 additional square miles in Europe. Most of this was taken over in three months, and equals all New England, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio and_ Indiana combined. Next biggest grabber was Soviet Russia. Joseph Stalin has added 100,000 square miles to his farflung nation, only needing to fight for part of Finland. The remainder he got through Hitler’s assistance, or by grabbing while Hitler was on the move. ee : Italy was third in the taking, getting a strip of the Riveria from France and adding some 68,000 square miles to Italian East Africa by driving out the British from Somliland. The British have started a counter offensie, however, and have Mussolini's troons trapped. Some smaller gains were made by other European nations in the general reshuffle of the map. As the new year comes Adolf Hitler is seeking to conquer Great Britain and is making troop movements into the Balkans. Will he grab more territory this year, or will he be stopped? ae = Dizzy Year Ahead The year 1941! is here. What it holds for America—and for the world—is anybody's guess. But of one thing it apparently holds for America we seem assured—one of the biggest business booms in the country’s history. And it will be one of the most artificial business booms in history—a boom built not upon natural, sound expansion of industry. of natural expansion of supply and demand, but upon the wholly artificial stimulus of war. War is pair foor not from the profits and wages of normal, commercial intercourse, but from the profits and wages taken from an industrial activity financed from taxation and government credit on the difference. The federal budget for the next fiscal year—1941-42— has been set at about $17,000,000,000, of which about $10,000,000,000 will go for defense and supplies to England (for it seems certain the administration will find ways and means of extending England credit). The income for the period will not exceed $9,000,000,000 under the most optimistic estimates. The federal deficit already is close to $50,000,000,000. Where that deficit will be at the end of the defense program (or war, as the case may prove), not even Roosevelt himself probably would attempt to guess. This is an old, old topic, and we confess to our share in the mauling of it. But it is going to be a much older topic and a much more severely mauled one, before this defense-war business is settled. By that time, our national debt may have reached $100,000,000,000. And that’s about five times as much money as ordinarily circulates among the 130,000,000 people of these United States. True, the consuming of this all cial $50,000,000,000 will benefit directly the rank and file of Americans; but eg 107 mm street Nevada County.

Commerce asking for the following TMA Sale Lidia! bes HOLES NATIONAL DEFENSE SPENDING ; the truer part of the benefit is that it is and will be no actual benefit at all save for the immediate benefit that comes from a good meal. The meal, once digested, is gone. And the debt system of business boom makes no provision for the next meal—except more debt. America is entering upon—in fact, she is plunging into —a dizzy economic era, an era that will be much more dizzy and disturbing to the roots of America than the debt-heaping era that we have gone through in the past few years. We may well come out of this era with a money system shot to pieces, with property values completely undermined. We will come out of it with a great mass of expanded industry that we can not possibly have use for—because we have no use for all the industrial capacity we have today. We will come out of it with a top-heavy capital investment that may well break investors—because the story of all capital investment where the field is at saturation point (and in this case it will be far beyond saturation point) is one of cannibalism—the industries and buildiugs created by new investment live by consuming weaker competitors when the stimulus of unnatural demand shall have disappeared. There will be all kinds of money in circulation via the medium of waves during 1941—unless some miracle stops the war soon. But deficit wages, they might be called. There seems no way to stop this wild, spree upon which the exigencies of international affairs have plunged us. Defense we must have. But there is something all of us can do to ameliorate the inevitable aftermath—and that is to handle our personal financial affairs, whether they be the affairs of business or of individual wages—with caution and cold realization that 1941 business conditions will be dangerously artificial. America will need a cushion to sit down on when it is all over.—Sacramento Union.
