Starving Greeks
Flee TO Turkey

ANKARA. May 90. CUPl-Thous-
ands of starving Greeks, their SKIN
hanging in folds about faces from
which stare dead, tired eyes, are
arriving in Turkey. and Great Brit
ain is taking on the job OF feeding
them, it was reported today.
Officials estimate there are more
than 100000 Greeks in the Aegean
islands who face starvation. People
on the islands of Nikaria, Samosan
Nytelene and KhioS have not re-
ceived food from the outside for
months and with their own crops
a failure they have been eating
herbs to sustain life.
Many of these islanders are flee
ing to Turkey in small boats, and
the entire population threatens to
follow. The mayor Of Khios wrote
that these gregarious departures are
due to a sort of famine panic and
trying TO halt them is like trying
TO drive clouds against strong
wind"

No Requirements
Available in U.S.

CHICAGO, May 20-(UP)-Foul
government representatives warned
truckers last night that present
vehicles cannot DE replaced ann
asked that every unnecessary mile
of truck and bus travel be elimi-
mated.
John Rogers, motor transport d.
rector in the office of defense trans
portation, told a meeting OF the
American Truckers association that
no new trucks or buses would be
produced for the wars duration. He
said at the present time there were
about 100000 trucks and 100000
buses in operation in the country
with approximately 10000 new
trucks available for ALLEGATION.
Even then" he warned, some
of the new trucks now in the allo-
cation pool may be required fol
military use . the first thing we
must do is to eliminate every un-
necessary mile of truck and bus
travel. We must see to it that these
trucks and buses do not travel
empty
Joseph B. Eastman, ODT direc-
tor said trucks, buses. private auto
mobiles and tires constitute the
most precious stockpile that oui
country possesses and one that must
be protected and preserved at all
costs

Melon Shipments

PHOENIX, May 20. CUP)-Har-
vestinp of early covered melons in
the Yuma district was getting under
way today but movement will be
light until about June /, the U. S.
Department of Agriculture reported.
The Arizona Truck Crop News,
issued by the department as of May
Is. said the first carlot shipments
of cantaloups from Phoenix will be
approximately two weeks later than
usual. Lighter than usual produc-
ton is expected as a result OF re-
duced acreage and poor stands.
Development of watermelons at
both Phoenix and Yuma has been
retarded and shipments will be APP
proximately 10 days or two weeks
later than usual. The report said,
vines have a healthy appearance
and it is expected that quality Of
the melons will be very good"

The Russians said that the Ger
mans were losing almost 100 tanks
destroyed or damaged each day in
the campaign that is now in its
ninth day Both sides have hurried
reinforcements into the battle and
the Nazis desperately were trying
to regain control of the air from a
strcng fleet of Soviet airplanes. SO
far they have failed and Russian
planes have taken a heavy toll OF
enemy aircraft and tanks.
In their main push toward the
Kharkov communications network,
the Russians still were advancing
slowly through strongly fortified
enemy areas. often engaging in such
furious and such close-quarLer
mechanical battles that airplaneS of
both sides were forced to keep out
of the conflict or to limit them
selves to fighting enemy aircraft.

Grips defended Churchill against

both as defense minister and prime
minister. and said that the govern
ment is willing to stand or fall on
vote of confidence on its war
policies.
Hore- BeliSha had urged the Gre

Hore-Belisha also warned that
Japan probably would attack Rus

American Leaflets
Pledge Frenchmen
Won'tLose Land

VCHY, France, May 20 up
British planes dropped American
printed leaflets over unoccupied
France during the night, contain
ing a promise by President Roose-
welt that all occupied French pos
sessions would be restored after
the war.
Wave after wave, to an obligato
OF anti-aircraft gun fire, the ROYAL
Air Force planes droned over the
vichy area showering their leaflets
on town and countryside.
All the leaflets bore the state
ment that they were printed by the
United 6tates government and dis
tiibuted by the British Air Force.
vICHY REFUTED
IT was half an hour before the
planes. flying from north TO south,
ended their leaflet distribution
which apparently marked the open
ing of joint Anglo-American
campaign to assure the Frenchman
in the street that despite any al
legations of VichY collaborationists.
the United Nations were out to
Free France and the other coun-
tries under the German heel.
The raid came at a time when
Vichy sources claimed to have re-
ceived reports that Britain might
move soon against French Somali-
land and government leaders were
comforting on serious clash be-
tween British and Vichy air and
naval forces off Algeria, on the
French north African coast
Chief Of government Pierre La

Open Season on
Politicians Near
Throughout State

Continued from Page One)
His program will stress Tie wartime
balancing of the budget through
defense expenditures on the West
coast, his support of the Roosevelt
administration, and the unin:errup-
ton of state government in an EN-
Urgency.
Attorney Generai Earl Warren
heads the list of Republican candi-
dates and will also file on the Demo-
cratic ticket His major argument
will be that state defense has been
mismanaged. Warren made news
this week by choosing Publisher lrv-
ing Martin, ST., of Stockton, as his
northern California campaign man
ager and former State Senator
James Holohan of Santa Cruz as
assistant. Martin is a veteran Prog
ressive Republican and Holohan is
a Democrat.
Warren recently received the en-
dorsement of Wallace Ware, who
withdrew from the governors race to
run for attorney general. and Justus
Craemer, railroad commission presi-
dent mentioned as a gubernatorial
possibility before Warren announced
his candidacy.
PATTERSON TO RUN
Lieutenant Governor Ellis E. Pat
terson is candidate to succeed
himself but is receiving the cold
shoulder from the Olson admins
tration. Opposing Patterson for the
Democratic nomination will be State
Senator j. c. Garrison of Modesto,
carrying OlsOn'S warm endorsement.
Heading the Republican delega-
ton are Dr. Walter Scott Franklin,
the party nominee in 1898, and
James Rolph III, of San Francisco,
who got more total votes than any
other candidate in 1888 but dropped
both nominations.
The race for attorney general
seems wide open. The field includes
Secretary of State Paul Peek, Moo
ney-Attornev George Davis, eX-Ham
and Egger Call Kegley and ex-As-
semblyman Sam Yorty, Democrats,
and Wallace Ware and Attorney
Charles Son, Republicans. On the
fence are veteran Republican U. S.
Webb, who held the job nine terms
and Democrat Jerry Giesler, Holly
wood attorney and chairman of the
state athletic and horse racing COM
MISSIONS.
Deputy Secretary of State Charles
Hagerty filed for the office now held
by Paul Peek after serving for 80
years under Peek and the late vet
eran Secretary Frank {. Jordan.
The other major contender is Jor-
dams Younger son. Frank M. Jor-
dan, who believes the family name
can elect MIN. He was deputy
under his father but titled with
Peek and resigned. Both Hagerty
and Jordan are Republicans. Will
liam Stephens, Glendale Democrat,
and r. C.. Friday, Los Angeles at
torney, also will file.
Veteran State Treasurer Charles
c. Johnson, Republican, will be
opposed by Harold Mclaughlin, San
Francisco Democrat accountant.
State Controller Harry B. Riley
will be favored to succeed himself
M. Leland Stanford, Los Angeles
accountant, has announced.
Dr. Walter Dexter, state super
intendent of public instruction, is
the lone entry already announced
