NCOItluueQ 1TOln FdSG 1y Toungoo, British defense base only 200 miles south of Mandalay, and 15O miles north of Rangoon.
 The Japanese attack was believed launched from Nyaunglebin, 75 miles south of Toungoo, which the Japanese recaptured when the Brit ish Uithdrew to new basis in the north.
 This drive confirmed predictions that the enemy was preparing for an all-out assault against the Brit ish and Chinese along the right army of the two lines of advance from Rangoon. There has been no estimate of the probable number of Japanese troops in action, but reli- able reports have indicated the enemy advance is supported by tanks.
 The communique said the Jap- a1ese main force along the Ram goon-Prome railroad still was con- <centrated south of Taik-Kyi, 115 miles south of Prone and 45 miles north of Rangoon. The railhead at Prone is the northwestern key point in the new British defense line de- signed to keep the Japanese from moving northward toward China from their new positions in South ern Burma.
 Japs Using Boats
 Today's communique mentioned for the first time the Japanese use of boats on the Irrawaddy river, Burma's main north-south water route.
 Small enemy forces, the commit nique said, were reported to have come up the river in boats last Sunday, contacted focal traitor BurmanS" and then withdrew.
 'They landed at Teindaw, south of Monyo, and at Tharrawaddy," the communique said.
 A large number of Imperial troops, mostly native Ghurkas, have returned to the Prone base after contacting the enemy, the commun- ique revealed.
 Va OdLShOh uLSPdVCi, QuoVeu ny Radio Rome, said Japanese forces had completed capture of the Bas- sein Harbor, 30 miles west of Ran goon)
 Today's communique made no further mention of Chinese troop activities along the Thai frontier. The Chinese were credited in yes- terday's communique with routing 300 Thai troops, killing one-third of

Lottery Under Probe After MOndayArrest
States Attorneys Office Enters CaSe-BrOOkIyn
 Man Is Held

States Attorney William B. Fitzgerald and his staff have entered the probe of the lottery racket which was eX- posed here Monday night with the arrest of Max Bloom, AT, of Brooklyn, New York, by Detective Lieuten- ant Patrick Moylan and Sergeant Joseph Petit. Bloom is being held under bonds of $1,000 pending a hearing in municipal court Satur- day. It is possible that States At- torney Fitzgerald will request a bench warrant to bring Bloom into superior court without awaiting a bind over from the municipal court.
 Several local residents who were contacted by Bloom in the lottery racket have been questioned by po- lice and are expected to be sub poenaed as witnesses.
 The lottery works under cover of an alleged legitimate jewelry sale, according to police. Bloom is sup- posed to sell items of jewelry, all at cost of $49, and $1 down and S1 paid weekly. With each $l payment the customer is issued a number on an advertising coupon"
 If the numbers on the coupon correspond with the last five num- bers of the current weekly New York Stock Exchange total sales reversed, the coupon holder Is entitled to $l l,00O cash. Other combinations pay smaller winnings.
 Lieutenant Moylan said Bloom reported that no Connecticut resi- dent ever won a prize.

5000 PLANES A
 MONTH TURNED OUT

Washington, March le --tUP)- Production Chief Donald M. Mel. sons airplane production figures today indicated hat American fac- tories are turning out 5000 planes Q month.
 Tn radio talk last night, he said that since Pearl Harbor, aircraft production had increased more tha' 50 per cent.
 Plane production figures have not been announced since last october when 1917 were being turned out each month. Using that figure, Nelson's statement would put cur- rent production over 2,So0. But 1t was assumed that the productlc | rate increased between October and Pearl Harbor, on Dec. '.

FORGET ALL ELSE BUT WAR SAYS GOV.

Hartford, Conn, March lS-(UP) Gov. Hurley said last night everything else" but the war must now be forgotten, because America has to produce in two years what the Axis has been producing for the last 20 years.
 The governor spoke ct the annual banquet of the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers. This is war of emergencies" he said. And we must forget everything else. There is only the war now"
 "It will now be determined" the governor said, "whether the sci- entists and research men in this country, under free rule and with no limitations, can equal scientists and research men who were driven to their work by the lash of the dictators."
