Battle Strenuous.
Frontline dispatches said the bat
tle-obviously one of the bloodiest
ever-was extremely strenuous, with
the Germans employing vast tank
forces and swarms of planes based
on swiftly built airdromes near the
front.
Heavy battles are still in progress

Russiaircomnnand said grimly of the
Rostov fighting. "On one sector the
Germans succeeded in driving into
positions occupied by our troops"
Hand-to-hand fighting developed
frequently and the Russian COM
munique listed 1000 Germans killed
by the bayonets and sidearms. A
vast area of carnage was pictured
with thousands of German bodies
and machines lying on the ground
in mute testimony of the Russian
resolve to save the great Don delta
port.
The sector of the Middle Don

River Crossed Twice.
The broadening river, running red
with blood, was crossed twice near
Tsimlyansk. The first crossing ap-
parently was eliminated.
The second push supported by in
tense aviation artillery put small
units across the Don within 35 miles
of the last remaining railway link

its treasures. Dispatches said these
adventurous units were being dealt
with and were isolated but that Ger

PICTURES AND DESCRIPTIONS
of three saboteurs being sought

BY JAMES E. CHINN.


A nationwide dragnet was
spread out by the FBI last night
for three dangerous German
saboteurs as the trial of eight of
their captured associates neared
an end at the Department OF
Justice.
The three enemy agents on the
loose-said by the FBI to be "ex-
perts" in sabotage-may be in this
country, Canada or Mexico. All the
! FBI knows, or is willing to make
| public at this time, is that they left
Germany with instructions from the
Nazi high command to blow up and
destroy Americas vital war indus

FBI Director j. Edgar Hoover in

Text Of WLB Wage Policy
Increases Over Sept Is Levels Will Be
Granted Only in Exceptional Coses

War Labor Board at Washington for
action.
Inequalities and Gross Inequities.
The wage rate inequalities and
the gross inequities which may re-
quire adjustment under the stabili-
zation program are those which
represent manifest injustices that
arise from unusual and unreason-
able differences in wage rates.
Wage differentials which are es-
tablished and stabilized are normal
to American industry and will not
be disturbed by the board.
The board itself will review cases
where evidence is submitted to show
that existing differences in wage
rates are so discriminatory as to
make their continuance manifest
injustice. Such evidence may be
submitted to the regional director.
If the regional director is satisfied
that the evidence submitted 50 justi-
fies, the claim may then be trans
mitted to the National War Labor
Board in Washington for considera-
| ton.
Substandards of Living.
In the Presidents message OF
April q, 1912, and again in the ex-
ecutive order of october 3, 1912, the
word "substandard" is used with ref
erence to the need for eliminating
substandards of living. The Ma
tional War Labor Board has dealt
with but a very few cases in which
the substandard issue has been q
factor. Therefore, the board Is not
in a position at this time to enun-
ciate general policy to govern the
adjustment of wages to eliminate
substandards of living. The board
will not undertake to measure sub
standards of living by any fixed
wage rate.
Such cases involving substandards
of living as may arise will be con-
sidered by the board on their indi-
vidual merits until sufficient expert
ence has accumulated to permit the
statement of more general policy.
Effective Prosecution Of the War.
Under Executive Order $3.50, the
National War Labor Board may ap-
prove any increase of the wage
rates prevailing on September IS,
1912, If such an increase is neces-
sary ito aid in the effective prose-
cution of the war" Every adjust
ment in September IS, 1912, wage
levels that the board may make will
be, in its judgment, for a more ef-
fective prosecution of the war.
The National War Labor Board
will not approve wage increases for
the purpose Of influencing or direct
ing the flow of manpower.
When in particular case man.
agement and labor, in cooperation
with the War Manpower Commis-
sion and other Government agen-
cies, have taken concerted action to
solve a manpower need, the board
will consider a request in that case
to correct whatever inequalities or
gross inequities may then need cor
rection.
(The list of designated indus
tries mentioned above was not

been attempted before.
Since Mr.. McNutt was ready to
tackle the job and knew q good deal
about it through the limited opera
tons OF the weak setup called 4
Manpower Commission prior to Sat-
turday's executive order, it was log
ical for the President to pick him
for the enlarged opportunity and
give him wide powers.
It will be recalled that Mr.. Nc
Mutt out-New Dealed the New Deal

tered bitter opposition there but it
will also be recalled that as Cover
nor General Of the Philippines he
did . good administrative job. No.
body in the political world will envy
him his new problems, but, on the
other hand, as former national
commander Of the American Legion,
he knews what war means to those
who made the sacrifice in 1918 and
he is too good an American to let
anything, politics or personal am
bition, interfere with the winning OF
World War II.
