Discussing the Pearl Harbor

1t is TO be expected
that the supposedly best defen-

will interfere with such an at

No one should have given
high valuation TO such old and
very slow capital ships as were
lost in the raid, he added. but
"the losses in large planes

0pA Puts Lid
on Choice Beef
Order Effective
on Thursday
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 -
(P)- The Office of Price Ad-
ministration has put an absolute
price lid of % cents pound on
choice beef at. the wholesale
level, effective Oct. 1.
The price action, specifying
the m m m prices on all
grades of dressed carcasses and
wholesale cuts, limits the top
prices which may be charged
by slaughterers and wholesalers,
some of whom have enjoyed I'M
duly high individual ceilings.
Under previous controls, indi-
vidual ceilings were established
at the price each packer charg-
ed during the period March 49,
%. Study of the individual CELL
ings revealed, OPA said, that a
small percentage of sellers in
several areas have had abnor-
mally high ceiling prices, be-
cause of unusual conditions in
the base period.
"ThiS has enabled these pre-
viouSly ia wore d slaughterers
and wholesalers TO maintain a
distinct advantage over the ma
jority by being able to bid high
er for live cattle supplies" OPA
said.
"Such bids, even though in
relatively small quantities, have
been used to support requests of
live cattle sellers for price in
creases. Unless brought into line
with the general range of beef
prices, they could easily in
crease the pressure for infla-
tionary price advances.
The ceiling prices which now
may be charged for vario S
grades and varieties follow:
Steers and heifers: Choice or
AA, % cents a pound; grade A,
21R cents; grade B, 20 cents;
grade c 1919 cents. Cows: Grade
A, 1912 cents: grade B 1917
cents; grade c 17la cents.
Steers. heifers and cows. cutter
and Gamer grade, 16la cents.

Eiie(i Price
Compromise
Senote Votes
Altered Program

WASHINGTON, Sept 30 -
P)-- The Senate voted today to
strip from the administration s
anti-inflation legislation pro-
vision changing farm parity
standards. inserting instead a
compromise amendment direct
ing the lifting of farm price
ceilings where they did not re-
fleet labor and other cost in
creases since Jan. /. l94l.
The amendment wa offered
by Democratic Leader Barkley,
of Kentucky.
The vote was sc TO 4.
It would require that an lad
eouate wage" should be accord
ed to farm labor in computing
the increased costs over those
prevailing on January |, 1871,
which farmers have had to bear
in producing crops.
It's adoption ended an eight
day controversy between the adj
ministration and the senate farm
bloc over the terms governing
the proposed directive to Presi-
dent Roose velt TO stabilize
prices. wages and salaries at
Sept. Is levels, so far as practi-
cal.
In going along with the revis-
ed Barkley proposal, the farm
bloc surrendered an advantage
it gained yesterday when 1T
forced insertion into the bill OF
a provision requiring the recall
culation of present parity stand
ards upward to include farm la
Dor costs
A lar amendment, to
which President Roosevelt has
said he was "unalterably oppos-
ed" previously had been writ
ten into the anti-inflation meas
ure when it passed the House.

Laboratory Suffer

Fire, Of undetermined origin,
early this morning created dam
age estimated at more than ST.
500 on the second and third
floors of the Jewel Theater
building before being brought
under control by firemen who
fought the blaze for nearly three
hours.
Firemen, who are investigat-
ing the blaze today. stated that
the fire was centered on the sec
ond floor in the offices of the
Girl Scouts and in the chemical
laboratory operated by Stanley
Peltier. The blaze was first dis
covered by Lieutenant Harvey
Hammond and Patrolman Paul
Long of the Mount Clemens Po-
lice Department. who turned in
the alarm at l:55 a. m. Firemen
used every piece of their equip
ment in fighting the blaze.
CENTERED ON SECOND
The fire created the greatest
damage on the second floor and
only slight smoke damage was
reported in the Knights of CO.
lumbus hall on the third floor.
The heaviest damage occurred
in the chemical laboratory, and
Stanley Peltier, owner of the
laboratory, reported that his en-
tire technical library was de-
stroyed. 1t was partially insur-
ed, he said. Damage was esti-
mated at $500 in the Girl Scouts
office, and no insurance covered
it. The records, kept in a steel
filing cabinet, were saved, how
ever.
THEATER NOT DAMAGED
The Jewel Theater on the
ground floor was not affected
by the fire.
Peltier lauded Mount Glenn
ems firemen.
I've seen plenty of fires" he
said, but never one in which
m ore judgment and courtesy
was displayed by firemen. They
exercised great consideration in
fighting the blaze, and none of
my equipment was destroyed.
My technical library is almost
total loss, and some of the books
are irreplaceable."
The bookcases holding the
volumes was backed against the
intervening wall between the
Girl Scout headquarters and the
laboratory where the fire was
conferred.

Hitler declared that IL the
British try again to invade Eu-
rope, no matter where, "they
can deem themselves lucky if
they stay for nine hours on the
continent, as at Dieppe, for we
have made thorough prepara-
tons to welcome them"

in the theory that the big COM
mando raid on Dieppe last Aug.
10 was an actual invasion at
tempt.)
I'VE are determined to hold
this year what we have and to
attack where we believe it to be
necessary. Hitler went on.
After three references to Di-
eppe, Hitler said 1--WE shall not
pretend that we are not prepar-
ing for a second front"
For our enemies, it is moth
ing if we take Stalingrad, if we
pierce through to the Caucasus,
if we capture the Ukraine and
the Don and if we gain grain
and oil for Europe.
But if they are able to make
a landing and painfully succeed
in keeping this foothold for
nine hours, this is for them an
extraordinary sign of the force
which the British Empire is able
to bring up

military caliber I could figure

attack but as | have to deal with
an enemy who is a military idiot

At the start of his speech, Hit
Ter turned to the Atlantic
Charter" which he called "a
stupidity which will be valid
for only a couple of years and
will be eliminated by hard
facts"
During the German break

Seek Desperaie
Army Deserter
Officers Warn
of Sewage Nature

DETROIT, Sept. 30.-tP)-
Detroit police launched a search
today for Irwin Kadens, 81
year-old army deserter, warn
ing their officers that he is lone
of the most desperate criminals
at large today"
Detective Lieut.. Marvin Lane
of the holdup squad said Kadens
was sought for questioning con-
corning several robberies, the
abduction of a Detroit couple
and rape of young woman, and
the shooting of a Chicago police
man.
A circular issued by the De-
troit detective bureau contained
this warning: "Kadens will stand
for no questioning by police Of
ficers. He has been answering
the first question with gun fire.
Extreme caution must be taken
when apprehending him."
The fugitive escaped from
the guard house at Camp Grant,
H., on July IA.
Since that time, Detective
Lieut.. Lane said, he is believed
to have burglarized the home of
a Detroit patrolman, obtaining
the officers gun, complete uni
form, badge and handouts, to
have stolen two Detroit taxi
cabs, exchanging shots with po-
lice, to have abducted Detroit
man and woman and to have
driven them to Chicago, raping
the woman en- route, and to have
exchanged shots with deputy
sheriff at Bucyrus, o., Sept. 20,
and with police at Chicago Mon
day night, when one officer was
struck in the chest.
Detectives said witnesses and
principals in these episodes had
identified Kadens from photo
graphs as the man involved. The
uniform stolen from the Detroit
policeman's home was found in
an automobile abandoned after
the gunplay at Bucyrus.

Palmer, but was released when
they found no tattoo marks on
his body.
P~lmer was known as "the
tatooed man of Jackson" with
good reason. Tatooed on his left

RYAN CONTINUES
 RADIO CAMPAIGN
Scheduled for Another Ad= dress Over WATR at
 6:l5P. M. Tonight

Edward J. Ryan of Thomaston, American progressive candidate for congress in the election next Tues day will speak over station WATR tonight in a fifteen minute broad cast at 6:15. MT. Ryan's topic will be The People Versus the Politi- cianS."
 Thus far in the campaign MT. Ryan has injected what little col or, or what little fight, there has been in this campaign. He has con- ducted an extensive campaign in which he has appealed to labor to support him for Congress, pointing out that both his opponents are anti-labor, that both have voted against labor, that both will take orders from the politicians.
 He has outlined a platform call ing for Federal old age pensions for every person reaching 60 years of age of $60 each month for the rest of their lives, providing they have an annual income of less than $500 thereafter.
 He has called for higher and more adequate wages for men in our armed services.
 He would outlaw, through legis- lation, all forms of foreign "isms' in America.
 We must win this war for Amer ic; just as quickly as possible and bring about just and lasting peace.
 We must cut all non-defense spending to the bone so as to pre- pare America for the postwar era.

 Obsolete ideas and habits of thinking which made this destruc- tion possible, went down with the Arizona" he said. We must remem- Der Pearl Harbor for the painful but necessary awakening its has given us"
 He said citizens of the United States had been slow to realize the imminence and extent of danger.
 Before Japan attacked us, there were literally millions who hoped that Communist Russia's stiff re- sistance would save us the necessity of fighting at all," he said. And even today there are still many who fatuously believe we need only de- fend ourselves in the Pacific while Russia destroys Naziism.
 But democracy cannot be saved by the armies of Russia. Democracy must be saved by the democracies themselves"
 Those who fear communism most, Willkie said, should be the most anxious to see the fighting forces of the democracies on all fighting fronts.
