Anderson, S. c.
Hs the Associated Press.

ANDERSON, S. c.. July 5-Col.
William L. Roberts. acting comman-
der of the 4th Corps Area Reserve
officers training camp at nearby
Clemson College, announced today
that college students undergoing
training at the camp would take the
city of Anderson next Friday in
what is believed to be the first fifth
column maneuver ever staged in the
United States.
A battalion OF cadet fifth COL
umnists" in civilian dress will filter
into Anderson "a hours in advance
of the attack, and at the zero hour
will seize" public buildings, power,
communications and transportation
centers as has been done in Eu-
ropean fifth column coups.
A fully armed uniformed force
will move against the city at the
same moment to complete the first
war game of this type ever directed
at an entire city in this country,
and the maneuver will be considered
completed as soon as the combined
forces have seized control of the
Anderson County Courthouse, the
City Hall, water works, power plant,
telephone exchange, newspaper and
radio Offices and have set up simu-
lated concentration camp for pub
lie officials who have either civilian,
police or military type duties.
About $50 cadets, Col. Roberts
said, will don caps and belts for
their coup but they will be un-
armed. approximately 800 others will
advance into the city in as fully
motorized fashion as possible and
with all arms and equipment avail
able for the war game.
Plans provide that the 10000 resi-
dents of Anderson are to be warned
against resistance by handbills
dropped from plane at the zero
hour while, after seizure, a simu-
lated military dictatorship will be
set up to complete the picture of
undelcared blitzkrieg.
Col. Roberts said the 'conquerors
would proclaim a military govern
ment for the city. All automobiles
will be requisitioned in simulated
seizure of private property, and the
Anderson newspapers will issue an
extra carrying the conquerors' proc
lamation that the city has been
taken over by foreign power and
that ration cards are to be put into
effect, gasoline, oil and cotton and
all warehouse stores are to be
turned over to the invaders, and
citizens are to remain off the streets
after dark.

T.V. A. Engineers See
Defense Plant Power
Assured by Rains
Public Warned, However,
Conservation of Electric
Energy Must Continue
By the Associated Press.

bf tHt hSSOC-dltu FitSS.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. July 5.-The
holiday drenching of the Tennessee
Valley prompted T. v. A. engineers
tonight to predict that by next week
reservoirs on the Tennessee River
would be well filled once again.
Authority officials hastened, how.
ever, to tell the public that the
power conservation program re-
mains on the must" list.
In reporting that the downpour
was sufficient to add ITS, 900 900 kilo-
watt hours of electrical energy to
the gigantic public power system.
Gordon S. Clapp, Authority general
manager said:
The rains came Just in time to
assure us that. with the continued
cooperation of the public in the
power conservation program. there
will be no interruption to defense
production"
Rainfall Averaged 4 Inches.
Mr.. Clapp reported that engineers
preliminary estimates indicated the
rainfall averaged about 4 inches in
the upper section of the valley.
The highest marks we're recorded
on the Powell and Clinch Rivers,
feeders Of Norris Reservoir: on the
Little Tennessee River above Cheoah
Dam. and in the vicinity of Chatta-
nooga above Chickamauga Reservoir.
Ironically. the region of West
Tennessee drained by Duck River.
which empties into the Tennessee
below Pickwick Dam and therefore
is lost for production pur-
poses, was the scene of the heaviest
rain-76l inches being recorded at
Chapel Hill.
Hydraulic engineers predicted a
5-foot rise in Norris Lake, which
has been about 40 feet below nor
NAL and 4l2-foot increase in Hi
wassee Reservoir, the systems chief
storage reservoirs on tributaries of
the Tennessee.
In Georgia. c. A. Collier. vice
president of the Georgia Power Co.,
announced all restrictions on COM
mercial and domestic power con-
sumption would be lifted for a period
of one week. Limited restrictions
will remain on industrial power, he
said.
General rains in North Georgia,
where the company's reservoirs are
located. made possible the letup in
restrictions, Mr.. Collier said.

Walls LES BAINS, Unoccupied
France, July 5.-Reports which the
Associated Press could not confirm
said today that former Premier Paul
Reynaud, interned here in the Cha
teau Clement, may be ready to make
some sort Of compromise statement
In favor OF the present government.
Efforts to check the reports failed
when officials permitted this corre-
spondent TO enter the chateau, but
refused to allow an interview with
the former Premier.
M. Reynaud and former Interior
Minister Georges Mandel are the
only prisoners still here. Others,
including many OF Frances wartime
political leaders, have been per-
mitted to live In assigned residences.
According to all observations, M
Reynaud and NJ. Mandel are lodged
comfortably and we'll treated, al
though their freedom and contacts
with the outside world are restricted.
Guards Show Little Interest.
The chateau Is at the top OF
small but steep wooded slope occu-
pied by the walled estate. The
main gate is practically in the town.
but several warning signs marked
IL of. On the grounds were only
a few easygoing guards who did
not even look inquiringly at visitors.
At the chateau, however, was

and uniformed mobile guards ad-
mitted visitors through the low door,

ing.
The interior was luxuriously ap-
pointed with thick panelings, Louis

GRATED ceilings.
The two former leaders, who are
awaiting trial on charges OF malad-

two large rooms upstairs facing
each other across the hallway.
Electricity and later shower bath
were installed at their request.
They eat In their rooms, ordering
extra dishes from restaurants in
town.
Listen to French News.
They listen to French news broad
casts and have French and Swiss
newspapers delivered to them and
they were said to follow the prog
ress of the war and American de-
velopments in great detail.
Three-quarters of an hour, twice
a day, they can stroll inside the
fence. Besides seeing lawyers and
secretaries NJ Reynaud receives
regular visits from his daughter,
Mrs. Collette Dernys, and M.
Mandel is visited by his close
friend. Caroline Bretty.
Both were reported in good health
although M. Reynaud showed signs
of fatigue and M. Mandel of failing
spirits.
They read avidlv books sent
through "a lending library in town.
NJ Reynaud was said to be reading
particularly books on military
strategy.
NJ. Reynaud is preparing a his
tory of Frances participation in

Aluminium SHORTAGE
Now Nation S Worst;
Cork, Copper Next
Civilian Metal Demund
Far Outstrips Supply,
o. P. M. Report Reveals
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Aluminium, cork and copper, in
that order, are the scarceSt ma
terials now in American civilian
economy.
A sudden rise of copper to promi-
nence on the list of shortages, and
the marked easing of the zinc
scarcity of three months ago were
noted yesterday in report on ma
jor shortages prepared by Robert E.
Mcconnell. chief of conservation
and substitution for the ONCE Of
Production Management.
Commenting that modern war
fare is a war of metallurgy," Mr..
Mcconnell said the demand for raw
materials, especially metals, is so
great that there are very few metals
that can be substituted for other
metals-you just run into another
shortage
o. p. NJ. Does About Face.
On the basis of present produc-
ton, his figures showed, only 300, 900
tons of copper will be available an
nually for civilian purposes after
meeting Army and Navy require
ments of l,250.00O tons. Normal
civilian demands amount to 800, 900
to 100000 tons. The present ratio
is about two tons available fof
every five tons of demand.
The shift in the relative avail
ability of zinc and copper has
caused an about-face in o. P. M.
conservation measures. Two months
ago the o. p M. induced the Navy
to specify red brass. containing less
zinc and more copper, rather than
yellow brass for use on warships.
Now the o. P. M is asking the Navy
to return to yellow brass, because
copper supplies are shorter than
those of zinc.
Zinc. extensively used for GAL
vanizing other metals to prevent
corrosion and rust, has been con-
served by thinner coatings on such
items as garbage cans, buckets and
fences. There is still a shortage,
Mr.. Mcconnell said, but stimu-
lation of production. such as could
be induced by slight price upturn,
would virtually eliminate it. The
o. P. M. official said the metal could
then be removed from the priorities
critical list of strategic materials.
The critical" classification gives
the armed forces first call on zinc
supplies.
Demand Is Is Times Supply.
The report showed that the civil
ian demand for aluminium is Is times
greater than the available supply
after defense needs have been met.
He listed the following ratios of
civilian demand to supply in other
instances of shortages Tin the cases
of some imported materials Gov
ernment stock pile demands have
been subtracted from supply as we'll
as defense needs:
Cork, 10 to L; copper, S to 2; mica,
3 to l; nickel, 2 to l; alloy steels,
2 to l; tungsten, 2 to /; zinc, 3 to
2; tin, 3 to 2; chromite, 3 to 2; man
ganese, 8 to 2; plastics, to 2;
nitrates, to 7; rubber, 10 to 7;
power, 10 to Except in the South

Network
To Link us Major
Airpons in i. 5.
System Will Relay
Constunt Stream of
Weather information

A Nationwide printing telegraph
network linking ITS major airports
throughout the Nation will be
placed in operation for the Civil
Aeronautics Administration. it was
announced yesterday by the West
ern Union Telegraph Co.
The network of about 10000 miles
of line will be established under a
contract for service which has been
awarded by the c. A. A. to Western
Union. A minimum of ll2 stations
will be placed in operation on July
8. and the entire network of ITS
stations is to be in use by Septem-
Der S.
In defense or other emergencies,
and in daily operation, the entire
network will be thrown together
for direct transmission from WASH
ington and other control stations.
Normally the system will handle
constant stream of weather in
formation. used in preparing
weather maps and other forecasts
necessary, for safe air transport
Other Offices Included.
In addition to the C. A. A. sta
tions, the network will include
Offices of the Army, the Navy, the
Weather Bureau, the air lines and
other industries. The Army and
Navy each will have Offices at a
number of points in the network
for use in connection with aero
nautical operations of the Army and
Navy. and both departments also
will have receiving only" extern
sions at points where they will not
transmit but will only receive re-
ports. Approximately 100 installa-
tions of receiving only" extern
sions also will be made at the outset
in the Offices of air lines, air schools
and other industries needing
weather reports in the conduct of
their work.
The c. A. A. Offices at Denver and
Louisville will be the main relay
stations for the six circuits in the
network and will handle all reports
normally interchanged between the
various circuits on predetermined
schedules. At each of these two
points reports from approximately
half the stations will be received di-
rect in the form Of perforated
printing telegraph tape.
Regular Schedule Planned.
A regular schedule IS planned by
which each station in turn will
transmit its weather report to all
other stations on the same circuit.
The Denver and Louisville offices
then will transmit the reports over
the other circuits by running the
perforated tape through the vari-
Gus transmitters. -.
Secondary relay stations in the
systems, at which the circuits will
be joined for simultaneous trans
mission throughout the country, are
Washington, Indianapolis, New Or
leans. Fort Worth, San Francisco
and Fargo, N. Oak. Each of these
offices will have a remote control
switch. operated by the C. A. A.,
which will interconnect the six cir
cults as occasion demands. The cir
cults in the network are to be
known. as the Northeast. Southeast,
North Central, South Central, North
west and Southwest circuits.
