stance, would leave their southern
flank but lightly protected while
the Allies could build up without
hindrance their strength for an
offensive from Australia.
Similarly an attempt to mass
troops for knockout blow at China
or to end the constant threat Of
Russia by starting campaign
against the Soviet maritime prov
inces would also leave the southern
front vulnerable to attack and give
the Allies time to mount one.
Some experts intimately familiar
with Western Pacific problems de-
clared that the main Allied concern,
on the other hand, must be to get
an offensive started so soon that
the Japanese will not have time to
consolidate their gains in the south.
These persons estimated that If
the Japanese were unhampered by
large-scale counter actions during
the next three or four months they
would be able to establish them
selves so firmly all the way from
Burma to New Guiana that the
war would be indefinitely pro-
longed.

By the Associated Press.


CAMBRIDGE. Mass. March l8-
Harvard astronomers said last night
they had received word from Europe
Of the discovery Of rapidly moving
object" in the sky-presumably a
comet-and they declared the posi-
ton given placed the object fairly
close although not dangerously close
to the earth"
An Associated Press dispatch
from Helsinki, Finland. earlier
quoted an announcement from Tur-
ku University Observatory that a
staff member, Miss Liisi Oterma,
had discovered a new comet which
was named "1942-C."
The Harvard astronomers said
that the reported position is such
that If the object is comet 1T will
be of special interest because Of its
fast motion and the fact that it
Is located directly opposite the sun"
The observatory reported that the
object was described as Of the 18th
magnitude of brightness, which is
faint" and declared that until its
orbit could be plotted. mo deter
mination can be made as to whether
it will become visible to the naked

Women S Army Corps
OF 10000 Members
Approved by House
Volunteers Would
Replace Men Behind
Combat Lines

The House has approved the
creation of a Women's Army Aux
iliary Corps of volunteers to give
American women the same chance
as their British sisters for military
service.
The chamber backed the plan by
roll call vote of 249 to So late yes
terday and sent along to the Senate
legislation which would set up
corps with a maximum strength of
10000 women between the ages of
81 and As for behind-t lines serv-
ice with the armed forces.
Final passage came only after
bitter, though scattered, protests
from the floor that the measure was
an insult to American manhood;
that it would subject women to the
menace of bombs and gas and to the
possibly ignominy of court martial.
Mrs. Rogers Defends Plan.
Retorting to this opposition, Rep
resentative Rogers, Republican, Of
Massachusetts,, author of the bill,
cited the record of American wonl-
anhood's past heroism, from the
Colonial days when they defended
their homes with guns from Indian
attacks" to their sacrifices in the
World War.
They are just AS anxious, just as
willing, just as able to serve and
sacrifice for their country today"
she said.
The measure came into the House
with the blessings of the War De-
partment because such a corps
would release thousands of soldiers
for combat duty by turning their
chores over to women just as able
to handle them.
Subject to Senate passage and ap-
proval by President Roosevelt, the
w. A. A. c.. living in barracks, would
take over jobs ranging from cooks
and laundry workers to supervisors
at aircraft warning filter stations
and teleprinter operators. Their
pay would start at s2l month, just
as in the Army.
Reflection on Manhood.
Representative Hare, Democrat, Of
South Carolina, condemned the idea
as a reflection on the courageous
manhood of America to invite
women to join the Army; Repre-
sentative Randolph. Democrat, Of
West Virginia, said the House would
be sorry" it considered the pro-
posal. and Representative Hoffman,
Republican, of Michigan, main
tanned that it would be rejected IF
we could get a secret expression of
opinion
But the measures advocates
argued that the women themselves
had clamored for the right to serve,
and that the measure would prove
insurance against a possible strain
on manpower in the future, and
paid tribute to the courage of the
country's women.
Lets get rid of all this fagWav-
ing and all this baloney.' COM
mented Representative Piumley, Re-
publican, Of Vermont. Don't you
know that We can't win this war

Senate Votes 10 Boost
Federal Debt Limit
To 80 Billion
Toft Warns Of InfIotion,
Asks Treasury to Double
Defense Bond SuIes

By The Associated Press.
The Senate passed without a dis
senting vote yesterday legislation in
creasing to $3.50, 900 900 900 the limit
on the Federal debt-just double the
present ceiling.
The measure now goes back to the
House for action on an amendment
increasing the overall total by S.
000, ,OC0, 900 so that all obligations
OF Government corporations and
agencies might be included in the
direct Federal debt. The House had
approved an increase to $l25. .000,-
00O, 900.
Imitation Warning Sounded.
Senator Taft, Republican. of Ohio,
together with Chairman George Of
the Senate Finance Committee and
Senator Vandenberg. Republican, Of
Michigan, warned Of imitation dan
gers from the huge debt.
This gives wide-open authority
to the Secretary of the Treasury
to finance the war. giving him
practically unlimited power to choose
the means by which this shall be
done" Senator Taft said.
The Ohioan said the Nation must
spend some s65 600, ,000, 900 for war
in the next fiscal year. that taxes
would raise only about $25 ,000, 900 900
of this, and that present Defense
bond sales were at rate of bill
lion monthly or about $12, 900, 900 900
for year.
Debt Problems Not Solved.
He suggested that Treasury ofl-
cials try to double sales Of defense
bonds; that taxes be increased above
present levels and plans. and that
bond sales be held to real savings.
Senator George pointed out the
Treasury was now near the $685.
100000 900 debt limit as a result of
war financing and predicted that the
Federal debt would reach $70,600,-
100000 by the end Of the present
fiscal year and $ll0, 400 ,000, 900 by
June 80, 1943.
Senator Vandenberg said the debt
increase was unavoidable, but
Congress and the people should re-
member that "by this we have not
solved any problem, We have merely
identified one"

IreIand's Dismembermenf
Handicap, De Valera Says

By the Associated Press.
DUBLIN, March 18.-Prime Min
lister Eamon de Valera gave a SOM
Der note to Ireland's st. Patrick's S
celebration last night with the dec
laration that unnatural dismem-
berment" of the Emerald Isle ham,
pered an effective, unified defense.
"Dismemberment also has stood
in the way Of full friendship with
people of the neighboring island
which it is in their interests, as 1t
is ours, to secure and foster" he
said in a broadcast.
How the absence of that full
friendship may affect the destinies
of both peoples I shall not try to
say but as said on this day 200
years ago, no one gained by the
wrong of the partition-neither the
country which was originally re-
sponsible for it nor the country i'm
mediately suffering from it."
Turning to neutral Ireland's own
position in a world at war, Mr.. de
Valera declared I'VE need every man
of military age in the defense
forces"
If we are attacked" he went on,
"our resistance must be no token
