(BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

A German foothold some 20 miles
inside the northern Caucasus re-
gion, and another in the northern
most rim, have officially been con-
coded by the Russians. while the
sanguinary struggle for Voronezh
on the northern flank of the en-
emy's menacing bulge along the
Don River, has attained a new de-
gree of ferocity.
Since launching its latest about
effort against Russia on June %.
the Germans have won effective
control of an additional $4,000

somewhat more than the area OF

forces therein have been mopped

the Caucasus and easing the way
for direct penetrations to the oil
bearing region farther south.
These implications are found in
Russian Communique admitting
the loss OF Boguchar, just outside
the north Caucasian Territory and
also of Millerovo, rs miles farther
south inside the TERRITORY and IN
the direct line of rail communicA~
tions between MOSCOW AHA A.,s.ov.
Advance Well On
The North Caucasus is one OF
Russias principal agricultural re-
gions and If repeated Axis reports
are correct, the German advance
through Boguchar has carried well
into the southeast.
German advices last located the
point of the northernmost of two
spearheads at Migulinsk, 160 miles
northwest OF Stalingrad, the indus
trial capital of the lower Volga.

The W ashingtUn
Merry Go Round
BY DREW PEARSON
Major Robert 8. Allen on active dutyO

WASHINGTON - Although the
Navy reluctantly side-tracked con-
struction of big battleships after
the spectacular airplane victory in
the battle of Midway, the Admirals
still are slower than molasses ii
building small boats to patrol the
Atlantic coast against submarines.
Almost every important war
strategist, the President and Win
ston Churchill down, has empha-
sized the fact that the submarine
menace was all-important, that we
could not keep on losing merchant
ships at the present rate. How
ever, the navy still sticks to old
fashioned methods in building sub
chasers.
The Navy's chief trouble seems
to be the ordinarily laudable, but
now ANTICIPATED, idea that it IS
building small boats to last Is years
when we are all hoping the war will
be over in at least four years, and
when these small craft may be
sunk in four months.
For instance, one firm building
sub-chasers was unable to get
bronze screws, and wanted to use
brass screws instead. The Navy
objected And four precious days
were lost while the brass-hats ar
gued whether the sub : chase.s
should be built with brass screws.
1t is true that brass screws in the
hull OF ship corrode in salt water
and wear off in about five years.
But the war should be over in that
time.
In another case, naval inspec-
tor held up sub-chaser because
the inside cabins were not finished
in the specified shade of grey.

WASHINGTON, July 1910 the
laymen of AZ states and the terri
tories, the name of Rep Robert
Ramspeck of Georgia, the new
House Democratic whip, may not
ring the bell of memory, but he
probably is the best known man
in Congress to more than 100000
government workers.
For all of the Is years that he
has been in Congress, Ramspeck
mas been the patron saint of fed
eral employees. He has done more
than any one man to bring them
security, assurance of promotions,
salary increases and retirement pay.
Mainly through his efforts, with
the help of such senators as O'Ma-
honey and Mead, 80 percent OF the
government workers now hold their
positions under the civil service
merit system and are free from
those vast patronage uII1eayals

Censorship on Alaska

KETCHIKAN, Alaska, July 16 =
Suggesting relaxation of the strict
military censorship in Alaska con-
corning news about the Battle OF
Alaska, the Ketchikan Defense
Council has wired Gov. Ernest
Gruening and Delegate to Congress
Anthony J. Dimond, following q
meeting at which the members ex-
pressed the belief that Alaskan
morale is being undermined by the
rumors springing from lack of au-
thentic news.
The text of the telegram follows:
1--WE unanimously feel that Alas
kan morale would be greatly i'm
proved if the military authorities
released more Alaskan news. We
do not want any information which
will give aid and comfort to the
enemy, but feel that Alaskans
should know as much as the en-
envy knows and that Alaskan pub.
locations should receive the SAME
consideration as publications in thu
States concerning Alaskan news.
The telegram is signed by c. M
Arcbbold, Defense Council Chair
man of Ketchikan.

quently been deprived of Alaskan
news which the Army has per
mitted to be published in thu

FIGHT BEETLE
DESTRUCTION
Milky White Disease Used to
Kill Spores, Lessons DAM
age By Pest
BEETLES THIS YEAR

The nation is after the "Japs"
and there will be no let up on jap
anese beetles in Delaware this year
either, according to DR.. L. A.
Stearns, entomologist for the Del
aware Agricultural Experiment
Station. DR.. Stearns and a staff
of fieldmen in cooperation with the
State Board of Agriculture and the
Bureau of Entomology and Plant
Quarantine are spreading destruc-
tion for this pest. Last year
dust containing spore-forming or
'ganisms which cause the milky dis
ease of Japanese beetle grubs was
distributed in New Castle, Kent
and part of Sussex County Field
men armed with hand corn planters
treated two one-half acre plots in
each square mile of these areas.
This summer there's to be more
milky white disease dust for the
beetle grubs. Sussex county will
be completely colonized, and heav-
lily infested areas in Kent county
will receive just in addition 20 that
pu. cut last year. One and one
half tens of dust was prepared dur
ing the past winter months by in
jecting the deadly disease into
healthy grubs. After being ground
and prepared in powder form,
this spore-bearing material is now
ready for distribution to the land.
Stearns reports that In areas treat
ed last year a checkup shows that
beetle grubs have contracted the
disease. He points out, however
that establishments of these colon
les of milky white will not provide
immediate or complete relief from
beetle injury. Experience has
shown, however, this control mea-
sure is effective in lessening an
nual damage from beetles. There
will be japanese beetls this year to
ravage the States crops, so Stearns
urges everyone to use every means
at Ills disposal to reduce the dam
age of beetls, unteil natura. agen-
cies, such as the milky white dis
case, have reduced numbers of
beetles TO a low level.

VACATION HAS
MANY HAZARDS

Continued from Page One)
hours of auto driving measurably
decrease the drivers efficiency and
render him an increasing hazard
on the highway. Safety requires
motorists to avoid long, uninter-
rupted periods of driving which
cause nervous and mental fatigue.
Expose yourself gradually to the
summer sun in slowly increasing
doses. Sunburn is both painful and
dangerous.
Salt Good For Heat
If you perspire freely and feel
droopy from the heat, stir 1-8 of a
teaspoonful of table salt in glass
of cool water, and drink it slowly.
1t is good protection against heat
exhaustion, says DR.. Cameron.
Boil your drinking water if the
supply comes from an unknown or
unprotected source. 1t may be pol
luted even though it looks clear
and sparkling.
