CHINA:
End of a System

On the eve of embattled China's
national anniversary celebration,
citizens of that country had some
thing to cheer about besides the
valiant efforts of their armies
against the invading Japs. This was
the announcement by Great Britain
and the United States that these
countries were taking prompt steps
to abolish the system of extra-terri-
torial rights enjoyed in China for al
most century.
In the United States, this infor-
nation was communicated to Chi
nese Ambassador Wei Tao-Ming by
the state department. Under the ex-
tra-territorial rights system, U. S.
and British citizens enjoyed certain
privileges, among them the right Of
their court for offenses committed
in Chinese territory.
Usually crimes and misdemeanors
of foreigners in another country are
tried under the courts and laws Of
the nation in which they occur.

TIRES FOR ALL:
Is OPA Program

A national stock pile of "all the
idle passenger car tires in the coun-
try must be created if the govern
ment's plan to provide tires for all
essential mileage is successful,
Price Administrator Leon Hender-
son has announced.
The stock pile is necessary to car
ry out the following five steps in the
government plan:
l. Rationing of used tires and re-
caps, and new tires now in stock.
2. Actual control of each cars
mileage through the rationing Of
gasoline.
8. Compulsory periodic inspection
of all tires to guard against abuse.
4. Denial of gasoline and tire re-
placements to drivers who persist
emily violate the national 35-mile-an-
hour speed limit.
5. Capacity use, through car shar-
ing, of every car on every trip so
far as possible.
Sources close to the price admin
istrator stated that the stock pile
will be built up through an appeal
for voluntary sale of all tires in
excess of five for each car.
Replacement tires will be the
minimum grade" necessary.

PASS BIGGEST TAX:
In Record Time

After only five days of debate-a
modern speed record for revenue
legislation-the senate approved by
a vote of II to 0 a rs billion dollar
tax bill, the largest in American
history.
The treasury department estimat-
ed the house bill, which applies to
1912 incomes, would add Sc, 291 ,000,-
900 to present annual revenues of
SIT ,O00, ZOO, 900. Other sources said
the bill would increase present taxes
by $4,000, 100000
Following are major. provisions of
the bill as approved by the senate:
AS per cent "Victory levy" on the
earnings of individuals above 1924
yearly, with Is per cent Of the tax
up to $500 rebatable to single per-
sons and 40 per cent, plus per cent
for each dependent, up to 81 1000, to
married persons.
Normal income tax rate increased
from to 6 per cent.
Surtaxes at present ranging from
6 to n per cent boosted to from Is
to 81 per cent.

punch OF young lei
lows sticking together as we used
to do long time ago.
SIN the same way they take me
back to the days of defensive base
ball. They only ask run or two,
as rule and then they're hard to
handle. This means high class
pitching and fine fielding. They are
fast and aggressive on defense. They
actually turn a defense into an Of
tense. Baseball has been ruled by
pluggers for many years. The Car
dinals turned back the clock in the
games l saw them play"
There isn't any question but that
the Cardinals finished the season
with one of the best pitching stats
in baseball history.
This list includes Mort Cooper,
Ernie White, Pollet, Beazley and
Max Lanier.
Starting Pitchers
can't recall team with so many
good starting pitchers.
White and POllet were amlcte0
with sore arms most of the season.
II they had been in shape all year
there is no telling how many games
the Cardinals might have won. They
might even have passed the old 1906
Cub mark of 116 wins. They had all
these men ready for the main series
especially White who needed shut
out to win. Only brilliant pitching
could have stopped Spud Chandler
in that third game.
To allow one clean hit in eight
innings is working job that de-
served something better than defeat.
One of the outstanding stars in this
past series was Bill Dickey. This is
Bills 18th season with the Yankees.
He has been suffering from a heavy
cold, with a touch of allergic nose
poisoning from rug carpets or any
thing that has fuzz. He has been
physically low. Yet he caught bril-
liantly and after the first three
games was hitting around .445.
Bill Dickey didn't need this series
to prove his place. He has caught
more than 30 Yankee World Series
games, and has never shown flaw
in all that time.

CEILINGS:
Upa Bit

From the Office Of Price Admins
tration came details of new formu-
la to raise somewhat the prices in
IL major groups of foods. Such ac-
ton was declared to be necessary
because of the difference between
prices charged by various dealers
at the time the original price cell
ings were applied. Some inequai-
ties between wholesale and retail
prices were found to be working
hardships on dealers.
However the expected increases
were not expected to be very large.
One or two cents per item was esti-
mated as the possible increase.
Affected were prices on canned
vegetables, canned fish, sugar, cof-
fee, dried fruits, breakfast cereals,
cooking and salad oils, rice, lard,
hydrogenated shortening and other
shortening. Use of the new ceiling
is optional on all items except lard
and dried fruits; on these it is COM
pulsory.

Chilean Ambassador to the United

in fling formal protest to state
ment by Sumner Welles, undersecre-
tary Of state, which said that Axis
agents were operating in Chile and
Argentina.
Michels and Welles later met with
President Roosevelt. Following this,
Michels emphasized that this con-
ference was most cordial. II so,
this was deemed highly favorable to
continued good relations between
the countries inasmuch as Chile's
president, Juan Rios, was expected
soon to arrive in Washington on a

SHADES:
OF Gangdon1 Days

Shades of Chicago's sizzling gang
dom fell over that city again as
Roger ("Terrible") Touhy and six
other convicts shot their way out of
the Illinois Statewide prison in one
of the most daring and brazen es-
capes in crime annals. With Touhy
was his old gangland aid, Basil
("The Owl") Banghart, an extreme
ly dangerous criminal. The pair
had been in prison since 1888 when
they were convicted for the kidnap-
ing of John ("Jake the Barber")
Factor. During gangland's hey-day,
the Touhy gang was often in con-
fiict with AL Capone's famous mob.
State officials began an immediate
investigation of the break to deter
mine the manner in which the con-
victs had been aided from the out
side. Early in the inquiry Governor
Dwight Green of Illinois issued a
statement to the effect that: '"There
is no doubt that guns were SNUG
gled in from the outside"
AS skill or capture" hunt was
launched on an intensive scale
throughout the Midwest, some de-
tails of the break were made public.
It was revealed that Touhy and the
others grabbed a prison garbage
truck, drove across the prison yard,
threw rope ladder across the
wall, shot and wounded a tower
guard. Then they seized his car
keys, fled down the towers stairs to
the outside and sped away in the
guards car.
The wounded guard was the first
to be questioned by officials after the
break and was subjected to a ie-de-
tector test.
Later the escape car was discov-
cred in Villa Park, a Chicago sub
urb, but reports from various points
il the Midwest indicated that pos
siply the convicts had split up and
made for other sections of the coun-
try.
During the first three days follow
ing the break the convicts were re-
ported seen at points in at least six

SOUTH PACIFIC:
An Inspection

The Japs had retreated swiftly
through the Owen Stanley mountain
range of New Guinea and the Unit
ed Nations forces were on the con-
slant alert for trap as they pur-
sued him over the rough terrain.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur went in
for look around. With him on an
inspection tour that carried them
deep into the mountain country was
Lieut.. Gen. Sir Thomas Blamey,
commander of the Australian forces.
Before the trip into the mountains,
the official party inspected Port
Moresby's docks and airdromes.
Macarthur praised the work of an
American engineers unit in build
ing these airfields.
Travelling by jeep, General Mac
Arthur had first-hand view of the
difficulties encountered in fighting a
war in this area. He talked to sup
ply officers moving food, munitions
and equipment over the steep trails.
His general impression of progress
of the fighting was reported to have
been favorable"
Meanwhile reports from Guadal-
canal in the Solomons told Of some
successful air warfare by u. S. ma
rine and navy fighting planes. In
one three-day period the score in
this area was set at: Jap losses
~ bombers and IA Zero fighting
planes; u. S. losses-two planes.
In one day U. S. forces at Guadal-
canal shot down % out of Is bombers
in a Jap attack force. Also five of
20 Zero fighters accompanying this
bombing raid were destroyed. Thus
the toll of Jap planes continued to
run extremely high in proportion to
u. S. losses in the Pacific.

during which Adolf Hitler's forces
were struggling against time and

Stalingrad had been a heap OF rub
BILE for days before the Nazis de-
clared that frontal attacks on it had
ended. There was still heavy street
fighting, however, and the outskirts
of the vital Volga river port were
witnessing some of the severest

Though this shift appeared to be
temporary, official Moscow sources
were reporting local successes in
crushing stubborn Axis resistance
southeast of Novorossisk, an inpor-
tant locality. With the Grozny oil
fields as their current objective, the
Nazis continued to drive forward in
that area.
In the Baltic sea, Russian war
ships sank five Nazi transports and
Moscow sources claimed that the
Soviet marines" on the ships of the
Volga had aided materially in the
defense Of Stalingrad.
