This has been deduced by Canadian prison authorities in charge of war prison camps to which Britain has sent "5,000 to 50,000" German aviators, submarine crew members sailors and soldiers.

The every two camps are inspected months by representatives of the Swiss government on behalf of Germany. Also inspections are made by the International Red Cross. The prisoners have the right to make do, placed lights and extra guards. Tunneling is a favorite way of trying to get out. It goes on all tne time.

The problem is to find out just and in time. To make it more difficult, the prisoners tunnel bit by bit content with slow but steady progress. The prisoners have their own sentries to warn when the regular sentry comes along. Recently a prisoner was overheard making a strange noise. Investigation disclosed he was warning a tunneler.

Tunneling operations are sometimes quite elaborate. One seuip was discovered with signs in German posted so that would-be escapees wouldn't get lost. Colonel Stethem smiled is describing it. The prisoners are clever in turning anything they can get hold of into implements of escape. The director said his headquarters nas quite a collection of home-made saws, files and scoops taken away from the prisoners.

In some camps, enlisted men may do voluntary labor at 20 cents an hour. Many work on roads, cut fuel for the camps, plant crops. If the officers asked for work it would have to be provided, but so far none of them have, Colonel Stethem said.

The officers get their exercise in games. The officers have organized education classes in English, Russian, Italian, and, in one camp, Chinese. They also study engineering, mathematics and elementary chemistry. "They would like to go on into advanced for obvious reasons we don't favor it," the director smiled. On the side, if not watched 'carefully, they run "escape classes," Colonel Stethem said jokingly.

He said "many thousands of dol- and such organizations as the German-American Bund in the UniVed States. No prisoner is allowed to receive cash. It is credited to him and he can charge against it or buy canteen tickets.

Packages sent en masse are not accepted unless they come ihrough such organizations as the International Ked Cross and the International YMCA. Packages addressed to a prisoner individually are given to him, but the sender's name is deleted unless it is known to be someone with whom the prisoner has contact. The officers are allowed to write three letters and one postal card a month and the men two letters and four postal cards. The men were allowed more but the Germans cut down on the number permitted British prisoners. L'ucensored newspapers are given the prisoners except that sometimes the papers maj be held up for certain reasons such a story about an escape.

In the case of the sinking of the Hood, the papers were withheld until the Bismarck was sunk. Prisoners may be disciplined by confinement to their cells for a limited period. But these ceils must be lighted by daylight and the prisoner must be given two hours' exercise daily. They may be confined to barracks up to 14 days. They may be deprived of privileges.

Anything more severe requires action by the military board. The prisoners' general health was described as good. There has been a general gain in weight. There have been no epidemics. Each camp has a hospital and medical attendants.

No visitors are permitted. ers even have managed to put together radios.

He said that on escaped prisoners who have been recaptured they found maps of New York state and New Jersey.

The prisoners get the same rations at present as Canada's soldier, but the food in some camps may be better prepared because among the prisoners are cooks from the Ritz and Savoy hotels in London.

Contracts let as of May 31 totaled $18,698,000,000. or 54 per cent of potential contracts authorized, and 33 per cent of contracts let were completed by that date. Only 29 per cent of several hundred defense producing manufacturers complained of machine tool shortages in May whereas the figure was 63 per cent in January. Although 32 per cent reported being pressed for advanced deliveries by the government In February 27 per cent was the comparable figure in May, and 81 per cent indicated they expected to deliver on time. An average of SO per cent said material shortages constituted a major obstacle.

Government inspection technique was named as an objection by 70 per cent in April, while only 41 per cent named that factor in May. An increased need for skilled workmen was indicated. In January 45 per cent reported the requirement, in May 56 per cent.

1.00 Toiletries, Street Floor since I860 "the Best Always" Index Guess Is Difficult (Special Republic Dispatch) NEW YORK, July will be the most difficult autumn and winter to plan for in the history of American business, most analysts agreed today. Enormous numbers of complicated and delicate decisions must be made now to keep the machinery of industry rolling at peak level in the next six or eight months when the.arms drive will be approaching its peak and pay envelopes will be bulging with the greatest consumer spending power on record. Even the measuring instruments which businessmen use as the basis for industrial activity indices, security and commodity price been set askew by the swift-paced changeover of the nation's economy from a peacetime to a war-dominated basis. Measurement is complicated by the shift of activity to new lines, such as aircraft and shipbuilding, which are reflected in the common indices like that of the Federal Reserve Board or the Associated Press only jndirectly through their influence on steel production, freight movement and electric power output. Index Will Rise A common guess among statisticians here is that the Federal Reserve Board index of industrial activity, now about 153, will rise to rbout 160, or about 4Vj per by the year-end.

(For the Associated Press index, the corresponding rise would be from the present high of 140.2 to a new top of about 147). But in making guesses of this sort, business planners say, the numbei of "ifs" is staggering. These are typical: One economist thinks there has been great rush of advance buying by George Gprisumer, the average citizen, because he fears be may not be able to buy the things he needs later this year, or would be able to get them only after delays and at a higher price. Therefore, this expert says, there may be a considerable letdown in general activity later because the average man's needs for many common articles, such as automobiles, vacuum cleaners, washing machines and the like, have already been met. He cited the case of a vacuum cleaner concern whosi sales in the first half of this year were up 40 per cent from the same period last year.

Pay Rolls Grow Others, however, who have ob served the same phenomenal sales figures cropping up in consumer items think it is best explained simply by growing pay roils and consequent better family incomes. They theorize that the average man with a job and a family has a more or less stable rock-bottom minimum of expense and that when higher wages or a longer working week add to nis income his spending nower "slops over" into things like a new car, a washing machine for the missus and a few quarts of ncti for the week-end. That, these analysts say, is what is Eoins nn now and they expect it to continue as employment and pay rolls grow. It may be significant that the head of one of the largest investing companies in the country thinks "you should watch the amusement industries. "This man said that if lus personal affairs he is devoting his time to a defense would be looking around for spots for restaurants and dance pavilions as one of the likeliest ways to money at a time like this.

Another or the "ifs" In business is the proposed sharp curtailment of automobile output as defense needs soak up skilled labor P.r.d materials. Where Will Money Go?

(Republic Staff Photos.) (Special Republic Dispatch) PROVIDENCE, R. July Against a background of the circus big lop, with blaring bands and excited crowds, a tall, svelte girl jn ridin" clothes, with wavy chestnut hair and dark captivating eyes, saunters across the wagon-furrowed lot. In all the confusion, she catches tne ey the same electric eye-catching qualities that a few years ago were attracting attention in the swank avenues and salons screen Is Boss' Wife after him and his wife, Mable. It contains, reading from rear to front, a living room outfitted with modernistic, natural-finish wood furnishings; a row of staterooms, including a full-sized bathroom, i small dining alcove adorned with a mural painting of Lady Godiva that is rather startling along with prunes and shredded wheat about 9 a. a shower bath and a big kitchen and crew's quarters.

The household on the car reg- ularly consists of Germaine; her of Paris and on the French silver husband; his brother, Henry Ringling North, vice-president of the circus (whose wife stays at home in Sarasota, raising their baby): occasional guests; and a colored butler and chef. Life on the Jomar is like an exceedingly erratic trip on any Pullman, with a few additional corn- torts and conveniences of home and corresponding disadvantages. Lurches Unpredictably The car is subject to sudden unpredictable lurches at all hours of the and night as it is bumped around railroad yards and sidings. The mortality in drinking glasses, vases and bruise-, is terrific. In the midst of washing your hands, the basinful of water is like as not to land jn your lace or your lap.

The front yard is always a cinder path on the railroad usually a mile or so from inconvenience reckoned Today, circus-lot spectators wonder who she is and what she does in the show. They never see her in thf show, and the chances are that trieir curiosity goes unrequited. Because Germaine Ausseys "job" in the circus is even more unusual than being a performer. She's the boss' wife. A year ago nhe gave up a flourishing career as a movie actress in France to become the of John Ringling North, the 38-year-old president of Ringling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey Circus.

They met on a Christmas Eve at Maxim's famous restaurant in Paris, when North was on a talent-scouting trip. It was love at first sight. Falling in love with a circus proprietor, she discovered, is something else again. It's just the opposite of the sailor's girl-in-evory- port situation. You keep the same sweetneart, but you're in a different port every day.

Live In Private Car peripatetic love nest, their home lor eight months a year, is a private car named the Jomar, attached to one of the four sections of the circus train. Reputedly the biggest private car ever made, half again as as an ordinary Pullman, it was built by the late John Ringling, North's uncle, at a cost of $100,000, and named money in his pocket is a new.car. If he isn't able to get it. a few months from now, where will his money go? These are some of the tentative answers of the bigwigs trying to guess next winter's prospects: Movies, sports, liquor, more and oetter clothing, better grades of food and the addition of luxury items to the table, cosmetics and beauty parlor service, jewelry, espec.ally of the costume varie'y, education and gambling. Biggest question mark of all, most business observers think, is the course of prices in retail stores.

Raw material prices, it is pointed out, have been relatively easy to control, though even these have presented serious headaches to Washington's price czar, Leon Henderson, and threaten more' trouble later. But. it is pointed out, the raw materials prices of today are the retail prices of tomorrow. When recent rises in materials are translated into prices on retail store shelves, these men say, then "the fun will With retail business increasing, and scarcities likely to develop, these observers ask, how will it be possible to regulate what the retailer can charge for a limited amount of goods to consumers with a pocketful of cash? One shrewd observer answertd the question this-way: "It will be a Gargantuan TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY with by the constant presence of a car chauffeured by a saturnine exmarim: named Freddie Bartlett who has an uncanny knowledge of every back street in the land and psychic means of keeping posted on where the Jomar has been shifted in the last 10 minutes and how to get to that particular siding. The greatest of Germaine's domestic complications arises from the fact that North, a youthful, stocky genial impresario, inherited his uncle's penchant for odd living habits.

John Ringling liked to stay up all night, and for years North was his protecting companion and now is frank out to get revenge by staying up all himself. Is Pessimistic He never gets before noon, spends an hour and a half in a combination process of bathing, getting dressed, sipping fruit juice and reading the papers, emerging intermittently in his underwear to make oessimistic comments about the ilate of the world. He works all afternoon on the circus lot with his office in his hat, pacing about the grounds talk- Gel Your Fresh Movie Films at WALGREEN 2 W. Washington S.O.S. INSECT Powder.

A routine that would drive most wives crazy in a Ger- mainp. partly by diplomacy and partly by conniving, has fitted herself into it. Both she and North have strong, individualistic temperaments, and they maintain harmony by squabbling amiably J4 hours a day.

Germaine gets up at a conventional hour in the morning, and plans cut the menus for the day in housewifely fashion. When North goes off to the circus lot. she stays on the Jomar and sews, knits or reads, or goes "downtown" to shop, see an occasional or visit a beauty parlor. "A different beauty shop time, I nevair know how eet's going to turn out," she nays in her deep, vibrant accents. "I make eet land of game, whether eet turns out good or lousaay."
