Pace Picks Up

Everybody agrees that the
capitals party pace has picked
up tremendously since Pearl
Harbor. setting all-time records,
but not everybody, apparently,
graSps the reason.
A few persons, indeed. have
written angry letters-to-the-ed-
itor in which. invariably. they
used the expression, Kidding
while Rome burns.
They have not gone unchal-
lenged. Hope Rulings Miller.
one OF Washington's leading So
ciety commentators. undertook
10 clear up what she called this
great miSconception."
Fun Is Missing
Washington parties" she de-
clared, shave nothing whatso'
ever to do with fun"
"If you have any fun At a
Washington party" she added,
its absolutely INSTRUMENTATION
accidental. Nobody's had a good
time here since the war began. +"
As matter of fact, Mrs,
Miller said, Washington society
never had any fun, even in the
relatively tranquil days before
Pearl Harbor.
even I'm peacetime, she con-
tinued, capital entertaining was
IA matter of promoting contracts.
pulling political wires. Then IL
was n matter of grinding axes.
Today It's tied up with grinding
the Axis"
Mrs. Bacon agreed with Mrs.
Miller that society for society's
sake was dead and added:

Dutch East Indies Is See. ing Work of Two Great American Commanders ADMIRAL HART IN
 MOST AMAZING FEAT On All Fronts Allies Seem to Be Combining Their
 General Attacks
BY HARRISON SALISBURY

IIfAN1Nloo4N oTAA<AoSC United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Washington, January 15. - (UP) = American fight ing planes and ships mobil- ized today against Japan along a second line of defense in the Dutch East Indies while General MacArthu1 battled on from his isolated advance lines in Luzon. The weight of American air and sea power already was being hurled against the Japanese forces, strik- ing strongly down the Celebes Sea toward the oil and rubber riches Of the Dutch islands.
 Two high ranking American com manders Lieutenant General George H. Brett and Admiral Thomas c. Hart - were in Java to direct American operations in 1n- innate collaboration with the Dutch, British and Australians.
 American planes have struck at least three times - and possibly more - against the Japanese, who are slashing southward along the northeast Borneo coast and through the straits of Malucca and Macassar.
 Operations of U. s. warshlps have been cloaked in some mystery. But it became known today that the en- tire Asiatic fleet and its important train of tankers and supply ships has slipped through the tight Jap. anese guard and has safely arrived at new bases.
 The Asiatic fleet had been based at Cavite, but before the fall Of that base and to Manila, it slipped away. There was no official indication of it's new theater of operations.
 The exact strength of the Aslatlc fleet is a military secret. Before the war it was not large and has gen. orally been supposed to consist or a small cruiser squadron, some oe- stroyers and fairly large force or submarines. Hart travelled from the Philippines to the Dutch 1slanos aboard submarine.
 Hart Worked Miracle
 Hart's feat in extricating his forces under the very eyes Of Japa- nese reconnaissance and bombing planes through water infested with enemy surface and undersea vessels was regarded as an operation of extraordinary success. His ability to remove his fleet train-the string of relatively slow moving tankers, supply and repair ships-was con- sidered even more exceptional. His success substantially rein forced the naval forces available for operation against the Japanese 1n waters south of the Philippines. It was expected that the weight of the U. s. Naval forces would play major role in the defense of the Dutch Indies.
 MacArthur's fight went on We0 little change today-the 40th day since the start of the War-and he (Continued on Page A

Washington, Jan. Is - (UP0 - (U.P) - Charles A. Lindbergh has been assigned to technical com- mercial project" in which the war department is intestered and will serve in a civilian capacity, Secre- tary of War Henry L. Stimson an- nounced today. Stimson did not elab- crate, except to add that Lindbergh would be assigned to other duties when the present project Is com pleted. He stressed that Lindbergh had not been re-commissioned as a reserve officer.
 Stimson said he conferred with I.indbergh Monday afternoon. Lind bcrgh told him he was forming plans for the future" and wanted to know if he could be of use to the army before committing himself Stimson said he res,rred Lindbergh to Lieutenant General Henry H.

Charles A. Lindbergh Has
 Been Assigned War Spot

Assistant Secretary of War Robert A. Lovett in charge of air, after Lindbergh had said he felt particu- larly qualified for technical ex- perimentation. Lindbergh conferred with Arnold and Lovett Tuesday, at which time he was assigned to his new post.
 Lindbergh formerly held a re- serve commission as colonel, but re- signed 1t last spring when President Roosevelt described his isolationist views as similar to those of the cop perheads of Civil War days. A cou- ple of weeks after the Japanese at- tack on Pearl Harbor, Lindbergh offered to serve the army in any capacity.
 In view of his previous experience in pioneering commercial air de- velopment among the Americas, the.c was some speculation that his new post might email work of a sim liar nature at this time.

American Republics Face Puzzle At Start
Argentina Is Still Holding Out Against Breaking Rela= tions With Axis; Ecuador Wants Peru Dispute
 Settled Before Joining Conference
Ruiz GuinazM
BY EVERETT K. HOLES limited Press Staff Correspondent

Rio De Janelro, Jan. 15.-(UP)- The emergency conference of the foreign ministers of the 21 American republics opens today in Itamaraty Palace, with two thorny disputes across the path of swift collabora- ton against the Axis.
 The first is Argent!na's stubborn opposition to a proposed joint dec laration, cutting off all the western hemisphere's diplomatic, economic and financial ties with the Axis. The second Is Ecuador's refusal to sit in conference sessions until bas's is found for settlement of it's century old boundary dispute with Peru.
 Key delegation leaders desperately strove to end both.
 Many delegates are sympathetic toward Ecuador's contention that it is ludicrous to talk about organiz- ing against foreign aggression while an "outstanding case" of aggression exists in the Americas. Nevertheless there was hope that an agreement would be reached. It was noteworthy that Peru was willing, for the first time, to have the controversy brought before Pan American con- ference.
 There was also good reason to be- lieve that the Argentina crisis will be solved before President Getulio Vargas of Brazil addresses the for

RED AMRY STRUCK
 WITH FEROCITY
German Armies of Ukraine, Crimea Are in Danger of
 Being Trapped
By EDWARD w. BEA1TIE United Press Staff Correspondent

London, Jan. 15.-(UP)--A power full Red army struck suddenly and ferociously today in a drive threat ening the German armies of the Ukraine and the Crimea.
 From Orel, 200 miles south of Moscow, through Kharkov to the shores of the Sea of Azov and the Crimea, the Russians smashed into the Germans on a 550mile front.
 To the north the armies of Mos COW and Leningrad, still developing their own drives on the 4lst day Of their counter offensive, strucl, tirelessly at the retreating Germans.
 It was reported that the Russians had not only landed strong forces in new areas of the Crimea, in po- sition to entrap an estimated seven Axis divisions or more than 100000 men, but had landed a shock force on the Sea of Azov west of Tagan- reg, where the Germans had made long stand along the Mus river.
 Under the direction of Marshal Semyon TimoShenko, who after an emergency reorganization Of the Russian southern army, retook Ros- tov-on-Don and turned the t,de against the Germans, the Russians were reported to have landed artil- lery as well as infantry west o1 Taganrog.
 A Daily Herald dispatch reported that Taganrog was under heavy ar tillery fire and the Germans were preparing to evacuate it. ..-.
 The Vichy radio broadcast q re- port that the Russians had landed men only 10 miles south of the toWI of Perekop, at the top of the Crimea in the only path by which the AXi. 1 IEntaLlnund an pnue Al
