Lands said: ''This Il . priority

regions"
tack which Secretary Of War Slim
son considers likely.
Gas mask pouches made their ap-
pearance in coast cities from Seattle
to San Diego. Mass distribution Of
masks to civilian defense workers
was begun at the same time.
The defense activity followed Slim
sons warning that a reprisal raid
by Japan for the Tokyo bombing
is distinct possibility.

RUSSIA:
Kharkov Claims

While local encounters were being
reported on the Kharkov front in
the Ukraine, the operation was con-
sidered as having resulted in two
vital factors:
The Kharkov battle drained Ger
man reserves and diverted mini
mum Of SO German divisions which
had been massed for an about Of
fensive against Rostov.
A Russian communique stated
that while attempting to improve
their positions, the Germans threw in
large reserves for three days in
continued counterattacks. All coun-
terattacks were repulsed with great
losses to the enemy"
Claiming brilliant success in the
19-day Kharkov campaign, the Rus
slams admitted the loss of $4,000
troops-5,0 900 killed and 10000 miss
ing. However, a Red army COM
munique claimed the capture or kill
ing of 10000 Germans.
The same communique pointed out
that Soviet offensive operations in
the Kharkov region were started
only in order to forestall the an
ticipated blow of the Nazis. The
Russian plans did not include the
capture of Kharkov. The communi-
que concluded: ''Now that these bat
ties are nearing their end, it can
be said that the main task put for
ward by the Soviet command-to
forestall the German blow-has been
completed.

GULF
Frontier Command

As the submarine menace contin-
ued to mount in the Gulf of Next
CO, the U. S. navy created a gulf
sea frontier command and the army
at the same time placed the coastal
region along the gulf in a military
area. This would mean that the dis
trict along the gulf coast from Flor
ida to the Rio Grande would be SUBJ
ject to dimouts and blackouts.
Rear Admiral James Laurence
Kaufman was chosen by the navy
to command gulf sea frontier and
Lieut.. Gen. Walter Kruger, head
Of the southern defense command
for the army, was in charge Of the
land fighting forces in the district.
No evacuation of citizens was Or
dered and the army emphasized that
civilians within the military area
would not be restricted except as to
lighting.
Headquarters for the navy forces
fighting the submarines in the area
will be at Miami.

Ronsn,eI's Drive

From Cairo came the first reports
of the opening of a new offensive
by the Nazis across the sands Of
Libya in drive for Egypt, then
Iraq and the rear gate to the
Caucasus.
1t was Field Marshal Erwin ROM
mel who was leading the German
tank forces against the British In
this hot desert campaign. But ROM
mel's rush met not only the British.
1t met the full power Of American
made tanks.
And with these tanks, Lieut.. Gen.
Neil M. Ritchie's British troops
turned the first spearhead of the
Nazis and the terrific engagement
of armored forces began once more.
The fury of the battle was de-
scribed as so fierce that decision
in the Tobruk area would not be
long in coming, for one side or the
other would be forced soon to yield.

RAILROADING
IN WAR OF 1918

ONE DAY EARLY IN 1918, at
tended a press conference of Rail-
road Administrator McAdoo, who
was running the railroads after the
government had taken them over.
To Illustrate the efficiency with
which the roads were being operat-
ed, he told of laying few yards of
track that made possible the switch
ing of cars from one trunk line to
another, saving a haul of several
miles between certain points.
That little story was impressive.

MEXICO:
PO,ver for CansachO

With Mexico's proclamation Of
hostilities, II of the Il American
republics became aligned in the
war against the Axis. In addition
to the United States, war has been
declared by Costa RIGA, Cuba, Qua
temala, Panama, Haiti, the Domin-
lean Republic, Nicaragua, Ell Sal
vador and Honduras. Eight other
Western hemisphere nations have
broken off diplomatic relations.
In paving the way for war on the
Axis, the Mexican senate approved
bill to suspend IA constitutional
guarantees, including freedom Of the
press and the right Of habeas cor
pus. The vote was So to 0.
Gen. Salvador Sanchez, chief Of
Mexican general staff, announced
that q supreme national defense
council with Camacho at its head
was being established to mobilize re-
sources and manpower. The high
command has ordered strong army
units into positions on the gull and
Pacific coast.

POISON GAS:
Hats Chinese

"Poison gas" was the cry from
China as the Japs were reported to
have resorted to this method of
fighting to stem a sustained drive
by the Chinese to capture fallen
Kinhwa and Lanchi in the Chekiang
province.
This was not the first time that the
Chinese had accused the Japs of
using poison gas. Last fall at
Ichang, Yangtze river port, it was
officially charged that gas had been
used. Also in recent fighting in Bur-
ma, the Japs had used gas when
hard pressed, the Chinese had re-
ported.
This time, an army communique
from Chungking said, the Japs had
used this method of fighting only
after stubborn resistance by the
Chinese had threatened to turn the
Chekiang offensive into Jap de-

of transporting produce or supplies
to and from market; travelling sales
men handling essential supplies,
and persons carrying newspapers for
wholesale delivery.
Under the local conditions" tests,
o. P. A. pointed out, in some COM
munities a local rationing board
might decide that the needs OF de-
tense workers who must travel long
distances at odd hours to reach their
Jobs outweighed the requirements OF
some other class of elgibles.
On the other hand, in densely
populated sections with adequate
transportation, local board might
rank most other classes ahead of
defense workers able to reach their
plant by bus or streetcar.
Approximately 100000 new cars
will be made available for sale to
eligible civilian buyers and various
Federal, State and local agencies
between March and May 81. State
automobile quotas will be announced
within a few days.
The rationing regulations do not
apply to approximately $4,000 new
automobiles which have been Or
dered stored for sale in 1943 and
thereafter.
The regulations provide that per-
sons who made down payments on
new automobiles prior to January
when all stocks we're frozen may
obtain refunds if they are unable to
meet eligibility requirements.
