Price Ceiling Is Greatest Necessity

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19 (P)- Bernard Baruch, World War head of the War Industries Board, told Congress that legisla tion which would put ceiling over the entire price structure, is the greatest single necessity of our present crisis and which will save twenty percent or more of all appropriations"
 Testifying before the House Banking Committee considering the Administrations price con- trol bill, Baruch said that while he strongly favored the measur- e's objective he remarked it was "peacemeal." He told of sharp issues with members of the com- mittees chiefly in that he favor ed single administrator to any price control law enacted, con- tending that the ceiling of farm prices should go to parity level and no higher" Baruch said sol- emnly with payrolls soaring, shortages developing, and more money bidding for goods, the dan ger of an infationary price rise is imminent if not taken firmly in hand, and in time it may get beyond the possibility of con- trol."

Dimond and Gov. Leave Fairbanks

Ryan, Assistant Director of Civilian Defense, for Juneau at 9:30 this morning after 12- day tour of Alaskan coastal and interior towns. They visited Lsdd Field and other projects here.
 Dimond plans to visit Sitka, possibly Ketchikan and other southeastern Alaska points and hopes to be back in Washington on the 18th.
 He said here, that he believes Alaska needs double what has been appropriated to date, for the completion of her national defense, including more fields, adequate for 2,000 war planes and adequate troops and equip ment to defend the fields, also an interior and international road system. He placed as para mount, the granting of priority to keep Alaska mining and fisher ies going in order to avert para lysis of industry, and to retain the population to assure contin- ued revenues.

Germans In Out skirts Leninggrad

UNDATED, Sept. 18 (P)-Ger- man troops are reported to have invaded fortified park and taken by storm, 119 pill boxes on the outskirts of Leningrad. Nazi seige guns bombarded the heart of the city and prepared to shell the great Kronsadt naval base of the Russian Baltic fleet. Other dark news to the Soviet cause was contained in advances reach ing London, which said that Hit ler's invasion armies, at the ex- treme southern end of the front apparently cut off the entire Crimea Peninsula and Sebasto- pol, big Russian naval vase on the Black Sea, is presumably isolated from the Russian main land.
 Italian sTry Force Dardanelles
 London quarters also reported an Italian attempt to send war ships, flying the Bulgarian flag through Turkish-controlled Dar- danelles. The British ambassador at Ankara, it was said, probably made representations to the Turk ish government. A highly placed foreign observer in Ankara, who recently returned from Rumania and Bulgaria, said Bulgaria had purchased six Italian destroyers as a smoke screen for the deal and asked Turkeys permission to bring them through the Dar- lanelles into the Black Sea, where the British and Russians suspected they might be used by the Axis. Turkey has not replied yet.
 The British press renewed its clamor for opening a new front against the Germans, probably an attempt to land troops in west ern Europe. The conservative London Times declaring that Britain not only must help the Russians, but must develop oth CT fronts where the enemy will have to expend his strength"
 Hitler's command, announcing great successes in the onslaught against Leningrad, said German troops, sweeping eastward across the Dnieper River into the Uk- raine,' are progressing irresist' ably"
 Nazi warplanes operating from the Arctic to the Black Sea are credited with sinking three Sovie' troop transports, a destroyer, two submarines, four torpedo boat! and 16 other ships were declared hit so heavily that their loss could be assumed.

Sans weather experts offer the
interesting explanation that

with the aforementioned fish and
frogs-and dropped them miles

Such extraordinary happenings
are always front-page news but
in Idaho no one gets excited
when 10000 trout fall from the
sky into one of the states beau
tiful mountain lakes. Such go
ings-on are getting to be COM
monplace in Idaho because the
officials whose job it is to make
the state an anglers paradise
have been making it rain fish
for some time.
The trick is done with air
planes. as the photographs on
this page plainly show. The first
step is to raise hundreds of
thousands of trout, from the egg.

The S+ote Of Idaho Is Making It's
Mountain Lakes Into Greet Places
for Anglers by Taking Thousands
Of Trout for a Ride-ond Then
Dumping Them Overheard

Idaho officials have planted"
as many as 100000 trout in this
manner in a couple of days.
Without the use of the airplane,
the job would have required
many weeks because the fish
would have TO be transported by
truck and pack train to reach
the mountain lakes. Making the
little trout air-minded and giving
them an experience which must
make them wonder what the

Idaho a lot of money and should

Through their glasses the officers
of the British Navy watch these
men at work and watch over them.
Unhesitatingly when danger threat
ems, the navy filings itself in the
path, ready to receive the blow on
the body of what has been described
as their slender steel box crammed
full of complicated machinery"
That's the destroyer.
Also, it happens to be this de-
stroyer from which I now am OBJ
serving phase of the battle of the
Atlantic. This unit of the British
Navy. which took part in the last
war as the u. S. S. Wickes and
which bore later the designation
'75" when swapped for the lease of
bit of land in Trinidad, has q
heavy responsibility, conveying,
patrolling, fighting submarines,
fighting bombers and fighting
mines.
Already the old Wickes has her
traditions in this war, one of which
is the saga of the rescue of 40 Off
GERS and seamen from a bombed
merchant ship. She then was under
the captain, since promoted, who
had taken her at Halifax from the
Americans and had brought her
across.
Attack by Raider.
He was steaming at the head of
convoy on bright morning when
lone German Focke-Wulf roared
out of belt of cloud and, avoiding
the escort ships, dropped a big stick
OF bombs athwart a big freighter
that was rolling along in the wake
of the convoy. The freighter's cap
tain put his helm over to distract
the enemy'S aim. One-two-three
the bombs fell harmlessly in the
water Then there was a terrific
explosion The fourth bomb hit.
TIE Wickes circled and went
racing through the seas past the
scattered lines of merchant ships
toward the vessel. Twenty years
ago when the Wickes was bright and
gay and new, her 24,000-horsepower
engines would have eaten the dis
tance at 35 knots But, despite
ammo domini and the idleneSS of
years, she responded to the call
upon her and raced to the rescue
as if it was but yesterday she was
launched from the Bath ironworks.
The survivors of the explosion had
lowered their lifeboat and now
Wickes hove to, to pick them up. But
the survivors, unused to aban-
doning ship in hurry or to going
aboard a destroyer in a rough sea,
did not make too skillful an ap-
proach. The result was that as
Seamen from the Wickes helped
them out, the lifeboat was over
turned by heavy sea. Three of
the British sailors we're thrown into
The Atlantic.
Whaleboat to Rescue.
The captain ordered away his
whaleboat to rescue his men. Life
belts were thrown to them. One man
who could not swim caught hold of

Predicting victory for the democ-

cerity of democratic statesmen s
peace aims depends on how the Jew

lieve that after the war their people
will be re-established, that does not
mean the national status of Jews
will be returned"
THE new conditions which we
ourselves build are the only ones
by which we can find homes" he
said, warning that the Jewish home

after the war as is their lot now.
Contrasting the settlement of Jews
in Palestine with Jewish settlements
in other parts of the world, he said

Jewish people.

he drifted far afield and was the
last to be picked up-an hour later.
The loss of the freighter's lifeboat
meant that the destroyer had to
use her boat to get the last men
off the doomed ship, for survivors
when they are picked out of boat
have no strength left to go back
for comrades. Volunteers from the
rescue ship take the boat back
again. The whaleboat did just that.
Like every good ship our destroyer
has its mascot. 1t is ball, white,
with red stitched seams, and un-
battered. 1t swings aloft in a net
and, If you get permission to examine
it, you may read on it this legend:
GOLDSMITH

You would be wise not to handle

eyes OF wardroom officers watch YOU
carefully lest you soil their mascot
or rob it of some of its luck bringing
powers. For they are quite sure it is
a lucky ball.
1t bears a signature on it-not
that of Babe Ruth, or any other star
of the diamond, but of the British
officer who commanded the destroyer
from October %, 1910, to February
%, 1941, when he was promoted to a
bigger ship. AS departing COM
mander he signed his name on the
ball and precedent now demands that
the names of all future commanders
shall appear thereon. When finally
