JAPS HAVE LITTLE
LEFT AT GUINEA
NOW NEW GUINEA
WILL SOON BE SWEPT
CLEAN OF NIPPoNESE
(Dy Associated Press

DARWIN, Dec. 15.-With the
fall of Buna, the Japs are now left
only three narrow strips on New
Guinea, and it is believed that the
American and Australian troops,
after they have consolidated their
positions, will sweep New Guinea
clean of Japs.
The Jap garrison on that island
must have made known its pre-
carious position to the naval COM
manders of Jap war ships in that
vicinity, for the sixth attempt was
made yesterday to land supplies
and reinforcementS on New Gui-
nea.
The attempt was made by two
cruisers and three destroyers that
launched landing barges, despite
the attacks that were made by
SQuadrons of American planes.
All the barges were sunk, and the
only Japs that might have reached
the shore were those that swan
from the barges as they went
down. AS for the cruisers and
destroyers, the report said the
planes drove them off, scoring
many hits, and that the last seen
of the ships two of which were
af1re, were when they were near
New Britain, where the Japs have
an important naval base.

GERMANS MAKE

RUSSIANS TODAY RE-
MAIN ABOUT SAME
CBy Associated Pr~ssl

MOSCOW, Dec. 15.-Positions
of the Russian and German forces
today are the same as they were
yesterday except at one point
southwest of Stalingr1d, where
the Germans made a slight gain,
the Russian war office announced
today.
That gain, the communiuue said,
cost the Germans 1000 killed and
almost twice that number in
wounded. The Russians were
counter attacking when the noon
communique was issued, and the
Germans were still holding their
gains, the report said.
In fighting, northwest Of Stall
ingrad, the Germans lost 400 men
and some equipment, the com
munique said, adding that the
positions of both sides remained
the smae at the conclusion Of the
attacks.
The weather has moderated IN
the last two days and, the Russians
state, has interfered with their
planned offensive movements.
The offensive will be resumed
when the weather becomes colder.

Fighting In Tunisia Be-
tween Allies And Axis
Forces Confined Prin-
cipally To Air
tBy Associated IresSD

tBy Associated PreSSD
- WASHINGTON. Dec. IS
Fighting in Tunisia between the
Allies and the Axis forces has
been confined almost wholly to
the air during the last ID hours,
according to information received
here.
There have been some clashes
along the right flank of an AL
lied spesrhead that is thrust
within % miles of Bizerte. but
the outcome left both armies in
practically the same positions rs
they were before the action was
started.
Allied air power continues to
grow and it is now we'll on a par
with the German-Italian air force.
The Allied squadrons have been
pounding TuniS and Bizerte al
most continuously since yester-
day The bombiro began 1T dawn
yesterday, was continued till mid
night and was resumed at dawn
today.
The Axis leaders are still bring
ing in reinforcrrnents from Sicily,
despite the raids made by Allied
planes on Bizerte and Tunis. The
reinforcements are arriving in
ships, gliders and big German
transport planes, reports receiv-
cd here said.
A squadron of planes, taking off
from its base in Algeria, last night
bombed Naples. The result of the
raid was not announced.

KEY WEST GIVEN
MUCH PUBLICITY
BROUGHT ABOUT THROUGH
ADVERTISEMENTS RUN
IN THE CITIZEN

Two advertisements that have
appeared in The Citizen the last
F; two weeks or so have pretty well
made the rounds of the United
States, according to information
received by the Key West Cham
Der of Commerce.
On December ), a threc-inch ad-
vertisement appeared on the front
page of The Citizen, offering $25
week to diShwaSher. The other
advertisement was classified, and
offered a reward of S25 for infor-
nation that would lead to the
signing of a lease for an apartment
or a house.
In some of the letters received
from various parts of the country
by the Chamber of Commerce
were clippings from newspapers,
showing that the advertisements
were sent out as news by the AS
ISOLATED Press. One of those clip
pings was received today by the
chamber from New York, and the
writer wished to know if the dish
washing job at $25 was still avail
able.
The classified advertisement
caused nearly as much comment
as did the one for the dishwasher.
In one of the clippings it is said
that good idea of the shortage of
housing accommodations in Key
West, which is now in the midst
of the greatest boom in its history,
may be obtained from the fact
that a man offered reward of
$25 for information that would
lead to his leasing a house or aB
apartment.

new BILL WILL
BOOST PAY OF
FEDERAL UNITS
MEASURE TO CONE
BEFORE NEW CONGRESS
WILL EMPOWER FULL LET
TER CENSORSHIP
By Associated Press)


WASHINGTON, Dec. IS
Among the measures that will
come up before the new congress
when it conveneS in January are
the proposal to boost the pay OF
federal employees and the bill
that will empower the censor
ship bureau to open mail that
passes between the United States
and its territories.
There has been some COM
plant about the opening of first
class letters between this coun-
try and Hawaii and this country
and the territory of Alaska, but
that complaint died down consid-
erably when it became known
that much information of value
to the military authorities of the
United States was found by open
ing letters passing between this
country and its territories.
Those who support the measure
declare that the opening of let
tiers will not hurt patriotic Amer
leans or their interests and may
contain information of value to
the country'S armed forces.
Chairman Paul V. McNutt. of
the manpower commission, said
today that he is waiting for the
new congress to convene to clar-
ify some matters in the powers
that are vested in him.

MRS. MURDOCH TAKES a
CASE. TITLE OF IN
TERESTING SERIAL

If Hestor Losado had stayed in
South America nothing would
have happened. But when Hes
tors wealthy husband died she
went North to Boston, where her
financial adviser lived. Then
without her intending it, theft,
murder and period of unbe-
lieveable tension followed.
And Joyce Murdoch took on
her first murder case. .
Joyce was the wife of Kent
Murdoch, who was press
photographer with a gift fo:
tangling himself up in murder
cases and getting them solved.
But this time he refused to mix,
and because the matter involved
the happiness of her two best
friends, Della Stewart and Ward
Allen Joyce allowed herself to
substitute for her husband.
Quickly the tension rose. Della
was convinced against her will
that Ward was guilty of Perry
Clarke's death; Ward knew that
Della had visited Clarke in his
apartment a few minutes before
the man was shot. And each, in
the effort to shield the other,
merely tangled the case worse
while the real murdered mingled
with all concerned and licked
his chops

NEWSPAPER DELIVERY
MEN AND BOYS CALL
STRIKE In NEW YORK
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK. Dec. ls.-
Newspaper delivery men and
boys are on strike. and no
newspapers were delivered
in this city this morning.
The papers included the
New York Times. the Her
ald-Tribune and the Morning
Mirror. The combined cir
culation of all the papers
concerned totals 100000.
The reason for the strike
is the refusal of the publish
ers to agree with the delivery
union to freeze" all jobs of
delivery men and boys for
the duration of the war;
that is. even though the
newspapers have to cut down
their issues because of the
shortage of paper or for any
ether reason. they will be
compelled to keep all deliv-
cry men on the job whether
or not their services. are
needed.
The point blank refusal of
the publishers to accede to
any such proposition precipi-
tated the strike.
