 Leaders Arrive
q sSvd uoIJ psnuuuoo)

Algiers, assumed charge at Algiers pending Giraud's arrival.
 Leaders Arrive Gen. Nogues, Governor General Boisson, and other leaders arrived by plane.
 As soon as they arrived, series oi conferences was started in which Gen. Eisenhower joined.
 The Sultan of Morocco sent Gen Nogues a message:
 On learning of the painful news of the assassination of Admiral Dar- Ian we addressed to you very sad condolences which we ask that you convey to Gen. Bergeret."
 Crowd Very Dense
 So dense was the crowd before and in government house that the re. moval of Darlan's body to tte ca- thedral was postponed until last night.
 Mass was celebrated at the ca- thedral at 9 a. m. today and after. ward the casket was to be placed in front of the Church of Ste. Marie De Maustafa while French land sea and air attachments filed past followed by American and British army attachments.
 Afterward the cortege files up the long hill to the summer palace.
 While Darlan's body lay in state at government house, his aide, Gen Bergeret issued the statement: "Amiral Darlan has fallen at his post, victim of an attempt inspired by those who would not forgive him for responding to the wishes of the French people by taking up arms again by the side of the allies against Germany
 In an earlier statement Berseret said:
 The designs of our enemies will be foiled. This crime will not weak en our determination to liberhte our country by force of arms. On the contrary 1t commands us to gather all our strength for the only fight that matters today-the one which will free France.
 Tn his capacity as commander in chief os the armed forces Gen Giraud assumed responsibility for maintaining order.
 "All attempts to create disunity will be mercilessly crushed Bergeret signed the statement in his capacity as deputy high com missioner.

in another.
 A specia! communique had re. vealed that, after breaking German counter attacks, which started Dc. cember i2 and had steadily in. creased ip ferooity, the Russians went over to the offensive, made gains along aw ide front for from i2 to i5 miles, liberated up to i,O0l squire miles of territory and drove the Germans across the Aksai river to a point 60 miles southwest oi Stalingrad and only 90 miles from the city of Kotelnivoko on the mail, railroad to the Caucasus.
 h their Caucasus drive, in tho area southeast of Nalchik where the Germans had tried vainly te drive into the great oil fields, Rus. sian troops continued attack throughout the night and, the noor communique said, occupied severa' additional inhabited points.
 One of the grimmest fights of ths Caucasus campaign was waxed ir one such town where the Germans refended every street and every house, the noon communique re. ported.
 The Russians flanked the enemy killed 200, took the town and six tanks, 2l field guns and 600 rifles.
 In fighting yesterday northwest of Stalingrad, the Russians wiped out % German dugouts and pill boxes, two trench mortar batteries and two machine gun nests. Dur ing the night they consolidated gains and, in trench raids, killed about 300 Germans.
 The gigantic scale of fighting irl the south, which extended $50 miles from north to south and 250 miles from east to west a total area oi l37,500 square miles, overshadowed the fighting on the central front,
 But colnmuniQues reported the Russians still on the offensive botl, in the Rzhev area l45 miles west of Moscow and the Velikie Luki area another i40 miles to the west
 In the Velikie Luki area, the midnight communique reported, the Russians stormed their way to the approaches of Q big inhabited 10. cality and inflicted heavy casual ties,
 Before Rzhev, at a point where they had yielded ground to Q big German counter attack, the Rus sians regained the lost terrain, kill ing 1000 Germans and destroying ~ tanks and ar1nored cars and ls field guns, the midnight com munique said.
 In local-scale fighting overnight the noon communique reported, the Russians killed 200 Germans in re- pulsing small counter attacks in the velikie Luki sector and the artillery destroyed l6 enemy dugouts, killing part of 6 company of 300 Germans,

 INCOME INCREASES
 The results of our rapid conVer- sion of the national economy from ! peace. time to wartime needs is re. ffected in the expansion of the gross national output of goods and services as well as in the sharp increases in employment since the beginning of le4s. The estimated national in- come has risen from $sS billions In l9Ai to a record high level esti- mated at over $ll7 billions in l942,
 The accelerated utilization of manpower in the total war effort has lifted the estimated civilian labor force since our entry into the war from 50.2 millions to about 6S millions at present, In this process withdrawals of men from the work force by the armed services were more than offset by the reduction in the volume of unemployment and by an increase in the employment of newly recruited workers, largely women.
 The conversion. still in progress, , of our industrial plant into war machine has been made without any serious economic dislocations. Tenn porary slurnps have occurred in the automobile and certain other final- assembly industries during the pro- cess of tooling up for the production of war goods,
 FIGHT INITIATION
 Tha sharp growth in employment over the year resulted in Q flood of purchasing power which made it necessary that various controls be apiie6 to assure the movement of materials mad labor into war pro- duction. The relative decline in available consumers goods necessi- tate(, the application of price con- | trol& and various supplementary measures, The rise in the cost of lying has been kept relatively small by widespread price freezing under the General Maximum Price Reg ulNtion iSued in April. .ag
 On our domestic front continu- ous battle against imitation is be- ing waged while the overpowering production of arms by American industry is now making Its might felt on the battle fronts of the world.
 AS we enter ls4S our paramount problem centers on the most ef- fective utilization of scarce man. power. scare materials and scarce plant equipment, as well as the most effective use of small but efficient concerns which otherwise face ex. tinction for lack of war orders.
