Anti Submarine Drive
Movable oCopeWith
Packs, British Say
Bombing by Shore -Bosed
Planes Also Being Met
Successfully by Allies
r, the Associated Press

r. the Associated Press.
LONDON, Sept. 30.-The steadily
increasing effectiveness of the AL
lies anti-submarine campaign is
reaching point where pack attacks
by U-boats and even bombing by
shore based planes can be coped
with successfully, authoritative
British sources said today.
These sources, who could not be
identified by name. said various
means of defense, including smoke
screens, anti-aircraft fire from ships
and escort vessels, and fighter plane
defense from aircraft carriers, are
mounting"
They reported that interception OF
reconnaissance planes used by the
Nazis to spot conveys for attack by
packs of U-boats was lessenlng an
earlier German advantage.
Dependent on Carriers.
While conveys generally must de-
pend on carrier-borne planes for air
protection against land based enemy
craft, 1t was pointed out that the
performance of carrier planes is in
creasing rapidly with the new types
of machines which are coming into
production"
One source declared that "the
battle fleet and its attendants can
take the sea in face Of even shore
based aircraft, provided the neces-
sary component formed by aircraft
carriers is in company with them. !"
High British naval officials have
followed closely the German claim
earlier this week-a claim already
officially denied in London-that
submarines sank three troop trans
port-type ships in the North Allan
tic. crossing from the United States
to England.
Further Exaggerated Claims Seen.
The belief was expressed in naval
circles that this claim might presage
propaganda campaign of further
exaggerated accounts of U-boat sue
cesses In an attempt to bolster
morale inside Germany with the
theme that the U-boats were dis
rupting the flow of American troops
and supplies to the European
theater.
Other naval sources said the cir
cling torpedo" which the Germans
reported using in recent attacks on
the Arctic sealane to Russia was

Munitions Production
14% Below Month S
Goal, Nelson Reports
Points to Some Bright
Spots in Picture, but
Coils for Greater Effort

War Production Chief Donald
M. Nelson reported today that
although August munitions pro-
duction was 8 per cent greater
than July it fell IA per cent be-
low goals previously set for the
month. He described this per-
formance as mot one that we
can brag about"
More than 81 times as much war
goods were produced in August as
in the month preceding Pearl Har-
Dor. Total value of all munitions
output plus war construction was
S4.700, ,000 900 in August, Mr.. Nelson
said.
Mr.. Nelson called for greater eff
fort all along the war production
line. He pointed out that under re-
cent organizational changes made
at WPB better methods of deter
mining programs. allocating mate
rails and balancing schedules are
being worked out. He added:
1T is my conviction, however
that we must do much better Job
in the last quarter of 1912 than we
have done so far if we are to end
the year with record in which we
can take some measure of pride"
Production Rate Passes Axis.
Mr. Nelson said valuable informa
ton indicates that our total out
put of munitions this year at least
will equal that of German -domi-
mated Europe, including France
Italy and the Balkan states. He
added We still lack some important
items. but deficiencies are being cor
lected If new plant facilities and
military construction are included
our 1912 production effort promises
to exceed by wide margin that OF
Axis Europe
Although the Axis had big
head start" Mr.. Nelson continued
studies indicate that our rate OF
with and passed that of the Axis in
Europe
Mr.. Nelson's summary of Angus,
munitions production showed air
craft up 6 per cent over July. ord
nance up 3 per cent, naval ship
construction up 7 per cent. mer-
chant ship production per cent
up and other munitions IA per cen,

| GEN. MacARTHUR'S HEAD
QUARTERS, Australia. Sept. 30.
Allied mountain troops, Sitting
through the difficult jungle and
mountain country of the Owen
Stanley Range, have captured
the first objective of their New
Guinea offensive, sent the Japa-
nese into hurried northward
retreat and seized quantities of
abandoned Japanese equipment,
communique said today.
Consolidating their positions on
IoribaiWa Ridge, which was retaken
from the enemy, the Allied troops
are pursuing the japanese toward
Nauro, 10 miles north of the ridge.
where the Japanese have Established
new defense positions.
With the conquest of Ioribaiwa
Ridge, which the Japanese had pre-
pared for defense with barricades
and field trenches, the Allies have
successfully started the difficult and
perilous task of driving the enemy
back over the 88-mile trail to Buna
along which he advanced to threaten
the Allied advance base at Port
Moresby.
Strong Resistance Expected.
Our advance continues" Gen.
Douglas MacArthur's communique
said.
1t was expected that strong re-
siStance would be encountered near
Nauro village and the creek at the
base of the next mountain ridge
north of IoribaiWa.
The fact that the Japanese aban-
doned many supplies, military
spokesman said, could not be taken
as an indication they were in rout.
Flank attacks by Australian troops
presumably forced the japanese to
leave precipitately without chance
of wrestling equipment and supplies
over the difficult terrain, he said
Allied bombers pursued the re-
treating Japanese relentlessly,
pounding their rear positions at
Menari. 4 miles north of Nauro.
Six Barges Destroyed.
At the same time heavy bombers
moved down the trail to Buna and
destroyed six barges used to trans
port supplies down the coast Other
enemy installations on the beach
and airdrome also were attacked.
Another Allied air unit struck at
Salamaua, large japanese base up
the New Guinea coast from Buna.
bombing the airf1eld and dispersal
areas. Results of the attack could
not be observed, the communique
said
The exact distance covered in the
Allied land advance could not be
determined because of the rugged
country. The recaptured ridge is
approximately 80 air miles from Port
Moresby and SIS miles by trail The
village of Ioribalwa, as we'll as the
ridge, was taken.
The Japanese radio broadcast
report last night that japanese
naval units had made landings in
the Tanimbar. Kei. Aru and Babar
Islands between Australia and New
Guinea.
For some time it has been con-
ceded that the key points in these
islands were in Japanese hands and

stated close to 100000 new homes
have been built under FILA pro-
grams in critical war industry
areas. He noted that during the
early years of the FILA program
loan insurance was largely re-
sponsible for reopening the private
capital market for home financing,
stimulating new home construction
and expanding the repair field.
FHA during the last eight years
provided liberal financing terms for
home buyers and encouraged de-
velopment of moderate-priced small
homes with small monthly mort
gage payments.

with the advent of the national
emergency the momentum estab-
lished during these formative years
proved of great value in stimu-
lating construction Of urgently
needed war housing, financed by
FHA-insured loans Mr.. Ferguson
declared.
Operations of the Federal Hous-
ing Administration have been con-
verted to full wartime basis. the
commissioner said. Under wartime
conditions the activities OF the
FILA are concentrated on the fol-
lowing principal programs;

fined to new projects in the desle-
