among the exultant crowds. They
were troops from conveys, recently
arrived.
Escape Is Related.
Brig. Gen. Hugh J. Casey. who
travelled with Macarthur, told of the
amazing escape from the Philippines
by the general and his party of 81.
including his pretty wife and 4
year-old son.
The group roared swiftly away
from Bataan Peninsula in four
speedboats under the noses of jap
anese land forces and made rendez-
vous with two flying fortress type
bombers on an unnamed island two
days later.
The boats, 10 feet long were as
sembled at various points on the
Bataan Peninsula and loaded with
as much equipment as could be
safely slowed. The odyssey started
at dusk on March II. The boats
shot seaward through the night
and tore through a moderate sea
with no sign Of pursuing Japanese
ships or aircraft the first night.
The Japanese obviously had ex-
pected Gen. Macarthur to leave in
a submarine. At 2:15 the follow
ing morning. 6 hours and IS min
utes after the start, one of the
boats broke down. but the three
other boats sped on. The crew of
the fourth was left behind and re-
paired the dead motor after 40
frantic minutes and resumed the
journey.
Gen. Casey said throughout the
next day the boats pressed on, and
just before night they saw the
silhouette of a Japanese destroyer
on the horizon. The speedboats,
however, were not observed and the
destroyer vanished In the blackness
Of the night. The next morning,
the party reached the island and
climbed wearily aboard the big
bombers for the second leg of their
trip to Darwin.
One Of the sights which i'm
pressed the plainly-clad Macarthur
was a group of Filipino soldiers,
who had convalesced in Australia
from wounds suffered in the early
stages OF the battle for Luzon.
The general eyed them silently
and then said simply to the guard
officer, Thank you, captain"
On tiny Christmas Island, in the
Indian Ocean south of Java, British
land batteries were disclosed to
have sunk a Japanese submarine
recently after the undersea marau-
der had torpedoed q Norwegian
ship.

Jonuthun Daniels Calls
Intolerance Treason
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 21.-Jona-
than Daniels, newly appointed as
sistant director of the Once OF
Civilian Defense, declared today
that intolerance was treason and
called for the opening of war in
dustry doors to all races and
branches of American manpower.
'Once intolerance may have
seemed an almost personal thing"
he said in an address before the
Council Against Intolerance in
america.
But where intolerance keeps
hands from jobs-holds back people
from participation In the war ef-
fort-those who indulge in 1t are
not indulging in personal vice, they
are committing q public crime
crime which as 1t sabotages the
unity essential to victory Is as well
described as treason as by any other
name" ,

Wool Conservation
Fought in ". P. B.,
House Group Is Told
Guthrie Associate
Tells How ConsuItont
Opposed Proposal
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A House committee heard testi-
mony yesterday that a War Produc-
ton Board consultant long resisted
proposed adulteration OF wool for
civilian uses as a conservation meas
ure but had now recommended that
it be adulterated in military sup
plies.
! George Doherty, executive assist
ant to Robert r. Guthrie in w. p.
BIS textile branch before they re-
signed in dissatisfaction last Sat-
urday, cited this after testifying thai
some w. p. B. ofncials had obstruct-
cd conservation moves In fields
where they had worked in private
life.
He told q House Military Affairs
Subcommittee investigating the cir
cumstances of Mr.. Guthrie's resig-
nation that the consultant was Ken
meth Mariner, q dollar-a-year man
in w. p. B. who formerly had been
connected with a wool manufacture
ing concern.
Supports Guthrie Charges.
Mr.. Doherty gave his testimony
in support of Mr.. Guthrie's allega-
ton that some of w. P. BIS dollar-a-
year men put their private business
interests above the public welfare,
but he added:
TT may be that Mr.. Mariner
just can't get used to new methods
in his industry"
The witness said that Mr.. Guthrie
had wanted more reworked wool
and other fabrics blended with new
wool for civilian uses because vir-
gin wool supplies might be exhaust
ed during 1912 II imports from Aus
tralia and South Africa were cut
of.
When Representative Kilday,
Democrat, of Texas asked about the
actual need for adulteration. Mr..
Doherty testified the United States
had furnished Russia "one to two
million" yards of pure wool and that
England had not only not adopted
a conservation program but was
shipping wool into this country.
Mr.. Kildays questions as to the
wool situation in countries receiving
lease-lend aid from the United
States brought him into sharp clash
with Chairman Faddis who ruled
that they were irrelevant to the in
vestigation.
Committee Room Cleared.
Representative Kilday then ap-
pealed to other members OF the COM
mittee to overrule the chairman.
The committee cleared the room
to discuss Mr.. Kilday's appeal and
though the members declined later
to reveal what had taken place. Mr..
Kilday continued briefly on the same
line Of questioning VIXEN the hearing
was resumed.
Mr.. Doherty said Mr.. Guthrie. be-
sides advocating wool adulteration,
had wanted the United States Gov
ernment to control the wool shipped
into this country from England.
The witness told the committee
that he had worked in the now de-
funct National Recovery Admins
tration in 1884 but had never been
connected with any private industry.
He said he was salaried employe
Of w. p. B.
Earlier, Marshall Hale, jr.. dollar
a-year deputy to Mr.. Guthrie, testi-
fed some w. P. B. ofncials had been
guilty Of indecision and delay. but
said the work of w. P. B. "on the
whole had been very well done" Mr..
Hale also has resigned.

snipers to capture him. The Japa-

prisoner, and, as a result, Aght to

craft and airdromes on the 1,60C
mile front from Kopeang on Dutch
Portuguese Timor Island to the
Solomons. japanese installations OF
the Dutch island of Yamdena, 800
miles north of Australia, were
bombed.
Air Power Grows Steadily.
AS Allied air power steadily grew
United Nations planes were ever
vigilant for signs of an approaching
invasion armada.
THE main blows have been de-
livered against japanese shipping
without which the enemy's south
ward drive must collapse" the Port
Moresby correspondent OF the sgd
ney Sun wrote.
Japanese troops which landed on
the north shores of the huge bar
rier island Of New Guinea were
inching along the Markham Valley
in their overland drive toward Port
Moresby. only 300 miles across
Torres Strait from the mainland
Contact with the Japanese was ex-
pected in the jungle-clad Markham
Valley at any moment.
(Tokio claimed that Japanese
shock troops had reached the
Gulf of Papua on the southern
side of New Guinea, beginning
the last decisive attack for
complete occupation of New
Guinea" Still another Toxic
claim was that 703 Australian
troops had surrendered in the
interior Of New Britain.)
Refugees reaching Port Moresby
said fierce head hunting cannibals
in the Sepik River area of New
Guinea went on the warpath and
complicated the task for invaders
and defenders alike. The tribes
fiercest in the world, were said to
have been joined by some native
police in robbing friendly natives.
White Settlers Leave.
Tales of savage outbursts and pre-
dictions that the head hunters might
revert to cannibalism were told.
The refugees said white settlers
began leaving and the civic admins
tration collapsed soon after the first
Japanese bombs fell in the north
coast villages. Headmen wrecked
plantation houses and wild bush
natives from the hills joined in the
looting.
The first official act of the wildly
acclaimed Gen. MacArthur-most
successful of Allied generals in this
war-was to call on Sir Winston
Dugan, Governor of Victoria State.
The supreme commander of the
Anzac area was accompanied by
Brig. Gen. Patrick J. Hurley, United
States Minister to New Zealand, and
Maj. Gen. Richard K. Sutherland,
chief of Gen. MacArthur's Philippine
staff.
Gen. Macarthur and his staff
spent much Of the day in military
consultations with Allied war leaders
at his Melbourne hotel suite.
To the cheering thousands which
gave him the most tumultous well
come ever accorded a person in
Australia, the general had said:
II shall keep a soldiers faith"
That faith was partially substan-
tiated by hundreds of khaki-clad
United States troops interspersed
