No casualties were reported in

Gen. Macarthur has cited for
gallantry the officers and men max

weary United States soldiers -
vanguard of a second A. E. F.
worked the kinks out Of cramped
muscles today in camps con-
structed by American techni-
clans who have been working
here for eight months.
In good spirits after an uneventful
Atlantic crossing under the protect
ing guns of the United States and
British Navies, the troops-several
thousand strong-found everything
in readiness to receive them when
they landed yesterday amid cheers
and martial music.
The billets to which they were
whisked away by train and motor
transport were no makeshift af-
fairs. On the contrary, their quar-
ters proved to be sturdy insulated
huts, erected of prc-fabrlcated parts
brought from the United States and
designed especially to withstand the
cold and frequent rains Of Northern
Ireland.
The construction work was carried
out under the Lease-Lend Act.
While the setting was new, the
wartime crossing of the Atlantic and
the debarkation were an old story

ed in placing their craft directly in
line Of flight of the second wave Of
japanese planes.
The engagement became furious
as the anti-aircraft batteries from
the American craft concentrated on
the second element Of the japanese
formation. j
The Americans fire dispersed the
hostile aircraft" the communique
reported tersely, hitting three OF the
enemy planes. which when last seen
were smoking and losing altitude
rapidly.
No location was given for the en-
gagement, but 1t presumably took
place OF the Batan coast, where
Japanese dive bombers have been
active in support of ground attacks
on Gen. MacArthur's lines in that
mountainous area.
The engagement involving the
two pursuit ships marked a thrill
ing high light in an otherwise quiet
day on the Batan front. The two
American planes shot down two Of
the japanese dive bombers and dis
abled . third and escaped without
injury.

ton Board.

directed that ''the lieutenant gen.
eral in charge of War Department
production" OMr. Knudsen) and "the
director of the Labor Division Of the

w. P. B. members.
AS director of the w. P. B. Labor
Division, Mr.. Hillman is the head
of one Of six major divisions under
Donald NJ Nelson, w. p. B. chair
man. BY naming him to the w. P. B.
board the President apparently
ranked Mr.. Hillman above the other
five w. P. B. executives.
Mr.. Knudsen and Mr.. Hillman
were co-directors of the old o. P. M.
Mr.. Knudsen's nomination to be
a lieutenant general was approved
today by the Senate Military Affairs

Sunk on Nov. Is,

Loss Kept Secret for
Two Months; Number Of
Casualties Not Given

B. TIE Associated Press.
LONDON, Jan. 27.-The sink
ing of the battleship Barham,
31,O00-ton veteran of Britain's
Navy, in the Mediterranean last
November Is was announced by
the Admiralty today after 1t had
kept the loss a secret for two
months to cheat the enemy Of
any profit from knowledge of its
blow.
The loss of the Barham, which
the Axis long had claimed as sunk
in the Mediterranean, cut Britain'S
capital ships to Is.
She had Is when she entered the
war and since has added 3 but S
have been lost-the battleships
Prince of Wales. Royal Oak and
Barham and the battle cruisers Re-
pulse and Hood.
The Admiralty said the Barham's
commander, Capt. G. c. Cooke, was
lost, but that Vice Admiral H. D.
Pridham- -Wippel. second in COM
mand Of the Mediterranean fleet,
whose flag she was flying, was saved.
How many others Of her crew of
1,100 to 1900 were lost was not dis
closed. One reliable report, however,
said 300 of her officers and men
were saved.
Explaining the Admiralty's Sc
crecy over the loss, the communique
said:
Next of kin Of casualties were
informed but loss Of the ship was
not announced. since 1t was clear at
that time that the enemy did not
know she had been sunk and it
was important to make certain
dispositions before loss of this ship
was made public.
THE German radio has from time
to time made statements with the
obvious intention of endeavoring
to discover whether a battleShip
of the Queen Elizabeth class which
they claimed to have hit with tor
pedoes had, in fact been sunk.
This information has been de-
MED to the enemy for the reason
given out, as they are now aware
that H. M. S. Barham was sunk,
her loss can be announced"

Although Mr.. Churchill said he
must confess to feeling the weight
Of war upon me even more than in

dence and appeared to be in high
good humor.
Seats for the debate were at such
q premium that several members
had to sit on the floor of low plat
form at one end of the chamber.
Mrs. Churchill Present.
The Prime Minister divulged broad
new plans for unifying war direc-
ton, bringing in Britain's dominions.
Besides a special council for the
war in the Pacific to be set up in
Washington or London, he an
nounced that Britain had agreed to
the requests Of Australia for the
right to membership in the war cab
met and that the same rights Will
be accorded New Zealand, Canada

Mr.. Churchill also mentioned ar
rangements with President RooSe-
welt for a body in Washington to be
called "the combined staff commit
tees" and declared that I'VE must
also concert together in close COL
laboration with Stain and Chang
Kai-shek."
Not all that Mr.. Churchill report
ed was Of British reverses or Of dark
prospects for the future.
In Libya, he said, an imperial
army outnumbered two-to-one by
Gen. Erwin Rommels German
italian forces has rewon Cirenaica.
1t has lost $4,000 men killed,
wounded or captured, he disclosed,
but he declared that more than
three times that number-"a highly

lost by the Axis. He totaled enemy
losses at $1,000. Now, he added,
Britain's job is to hold Cirenaica.

Early Inauguration

Early Inauguration of taxi
cab pickup service, designed to
meet in part wartime emergen-
cies in transportation, was fore
cast today when spokesmen for
IA cab associations petitioned
the Public Utilities Commission
for approval.
The plan would be applied only
to taxicab zones l and 2, for which
the fare would be 20 cents a pas
senger during morning and evening
rush hours.
Gregory Hankin. chairman of the
P. U. c., said it was quite possible"
that the agency would order the
pickup service as an experiment
without waiting for a formal hear
ing and final decision for its per-
manent use.
The petition was filed by John H
Royer, representing the District
Taxicab Owners Association, who
said that some $500 cabs were in
volved in the Ia associations. These
are the Bell. Premier, Washington,
American. Checker, Yellow, Arrow,
Lincoln. Diplomat. Harlem, Senator,
Bison, Sun and General.
As Many as Four Passengers.

Grated only between and $50 am.
and between $3.50 and $50 p m Mon

days. and between and $50 am.

town sections and the rates would
be-
For a trip originating in zone l
and ending in zone 2, 20 cents a
passenger during the evening rush
period: for q trip originating in
zone and ending in zone /, 20
cents a passenger during the morn
ing rush period; for a trip confined
to zone /, 20 cents passenger dur
ing either morning or evening rush
period.
One in Front Seat.
For all other trips during rush
hours the present uniform rates
would apply, provided, however, that
at all times when a group of two or
more persons hire taXicab to-
gether, starting and ending at the
same point. the total fare for such
group is not to exceed the now pre-
vailing rate for such a trip.
The pickup plan provides that no
cab shall carry more than one
passenger in the front seat nor
more than three in the rear seat.
1t is provided that the first passen-
ger picked up by a driver operating
this special service shall determine
the first destination, and that sub
sequent passengers picked up and
going in the same general direction
shall be picked up and discharged
in their respective order, provided,
however, that later passenger shall
be discharged earlier if his destina-
ton lies along the direction of the
passenger ahead of him.

pressed closer to vital Singapore
on the entire Malayan front to-

above the eastern anchor line

The invaders were within 48

where the British said fighting is
taking place about Senggarang.
This was a further penetration of
IL miles from Batu Pahat, whose
fall was acknowledged yesterday.
