YOU MIGHT as we'll know
the truth. The usual inSpira-
tional treatise inspires only one
reaction in me-to roll over and
take a nice, long, refreshing nap.
And then write something about
dogs or prize fights.
But at last I've found some
thing that hits me, as well as
you, where we live in these
war days. It's book by
Keith Ayling named Calling All
Women" (Harper & Bros, pub
lishers). And it's the most prac-
teal, readable treatise that I've
seen on the subject.
Here, for once, is an author
who doesn't get all frothed up
over sex distinctions. He doesn't
try to pretty-please the home
girls or placate the lordly male.
He sees clearly that there's a
whale of a job to be done and
that il is up to all citizens to do
that job regardless of sex.
He tells about that Job as it
concerns women, in all its rami-
fications-Red Cross, American
Women's Volun tary Service,
United Service Organization,
Office of Civilian Defense, Ci-
william Air Patrol, etc. Each
department, with all its duties,
is described simply, practically,
with an eye always to the av-
erage womans main job of
homemaking.
No Pretty Pictures
And to Keith Ayling's ever
lasting credit be it said that he
paints no pretty pictures. War
is war and its grim urgency lies
over every task he describes.
He is writing to- and for, serious.
patriotic citizens, women who
can take it, who will work as
hard and Loyalty, without
whlmpering, as any man.
Incidentally, he voices some
amazing and cheerful notions
about our sex. Women spies,
for example. Chances are you
wouldn't entrust your most
treasured secret to the girl
friend, even if you are a woman.
And the male opinion of female
reliability has been both noisy
and notorious for ages.

MOSCOW, Nov. 1.-THE Red
Army threw the Germans from
Etwo fortified positions in a fac
tory area of Stalingrad today ana
held firmly from the Arctic to
the deep Caucasus against Nazi
efforts to crack the defense lines.
Gray uniformed dead continued
to pile up before Stalingrad gun
pits. The Russians were reported
to have handed out heavy punish
ment to- the invaders on the Black
Sea and Nalchik- Ordzho onikidze
fronts.
About a company of German in
fantry fell before the counterattack-
ing Red Army troops at Stalingrad,
the noon communique said.
"On a southern sector of the city's
defenses a Red Army detachment
destroyed nine blockhouses and
killed about 180 German officers and
men," it was announced.
Siege in 18th Day.
Further Nazi Notifications were
reported wrecked by Soviet shellfire
on the steppes northeast of the city,
now in its 18th day of siege.
About 1000 of the enemy were
declared to have perished in vain
efforts yesterday to expand their
holdings in Stalingrad, falling back
to their original lines despite tank
and plane support.
A tank-supported infantry bri-
gade struck ct Russian defense po-
sitions before the Caucasian slopes
southeast of Nalchik, but was driven
off with heavy losses, the commu-
nique said.
1.-TWO Soviet armored trains, in a
six-hour battle, knocked out 10 Ger
man tanks and armored cars,
brought down a German plane and
dispersed about two companies of

Mopping Up Progresses.
Mopping-up operations progressed
northeast of Tuapse and booty was
reported captured. Soviet troops

The midnight communique indi-

warships were credited with sinking
in the Baltic Sea 15,0O0-ton Ger

dred' Axis troop carriers, supply
vessels and battle craft destroyed
in the war.
Soviet artillerymen blasted Ger
man equipment on the Steppes
northwest of Stalingrad and broke
up 4O0-man concentration in a
ravine, the communique said.
About 400 German troops and five
tanks were declared sacrificed in
three vain attacks on Russian posi-
tions southeast of Nalchik.

II Allied Subs Sunk
In 3 Months, Jups Claim
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC (From japanese Broad
casts), Nov. 7.-Imperial headquar-
ters declared today that Japanese
naval forces sank 21 Allied subma-
rines in the three months from late
July to late October while losing
two of their own undersea craft.
(Exaggeration has marked the
Japanese naval reports of the
war. Allied figures do not con-
firm this enemy claim.)
Acknowledging the loss of 20 Jap
anese merchant vessels totaling
122 500 tons in the same period, the
communique reported "a Allied
merchant vessels aggregating 252, 400
tons had been sent to the bottom
by the imperial navy.
Domei said that the results added
to previous British-American losses
since the start of hostilities, brings
the total number of British Amer
lean submarines sunk to 80 and
the damaged to &c."

NEW YORK, Nov. THE Ger

their North African debacle, de-
clared today the British had thrown
their greatest air armada of the war
into the Egyptian battle and grudg-

in planes.
The Berlin radio, quoting Nazi
military qus rters, said the German

Casualties so far counted are 20

which could be seen 12O miles away,

When Nationwide Cos
Rotionine Begins

The Office of Price AdminiStra-
ton announced today that local
rationing boards are being as
signed quotas of new tires and
recapping certificates for distri-
button to motorists after national
gasoline rationing becomes effec-
tive November %,
All passenger cars will be eligible
for recaps or replacement tires, but
local boards will distribute certifi-
Gates on the basis of mileage al
lowed applicants in gas ration books.
1t was indicated that, while every
one is eligible, there will not be
enough rubber Immediately avail
able to meet the demands of all.
Therefore, local boards will give
additional rubber first to those
whose needs are most important to
the war effort.
OPA did not indicate size of
quotas to be assigned to various
ratlonlng boards.
To Stress Recapping.
In order to provide as much mile
age as possible with a minimum
use of rubber from the country's
stock pile, emphasis will be placed
on recapping tires now on cars,
which will be done with material
made almost entirely of reclaimed
rubber, but if recapping is impossi-
BILE, there are three grades of re-
placement of tires available for dis
tribution.
No local board will be permitted
to issue certificates in excess of its
| quota.
Every effort will be made, it was
explained, to recap tires now in use
But if recapping is impossible, there
are three grades of replacement
tires available for distribution.
Preference in the grade of rubber
to be issued will be given to those
drivers who have been assigned the
highest mileage quotas. Car owners
who are allowed gasoline for less
than $50 miles month-that is A
card and some B card holders-will
be eligible for recaps when their
tires are sufficiently worn. If the
castings are unfit for recapping, the
drivers will be eligible for grade III
tires, comprising recapped or new
tires made of reclaimed rubber.
A Card Holders Come Last.
Passenger car owners who get
gasoline for more than $50 miles, but
less than 1000 miles will be eligible
for recaps or grade II tires. This
grade includes damaged new tires,
factory seconds, all new tires manu-
factured before January /, 1898, and
tires which have gone less than
1000 miles.
Car owners with monthly allot-
ments in excess of 1000 miles will
be eligible for recaps or for grade I
new tires.
The local boards are instructed
not to grant certificates for grade III
tires for holders of A cards until
close to the end of each month, so
that it can be determined that these
grade III tires are not needed by
drivers with a higher mileage
rating.
Application Process Similar.
The process of getting certificate
will be about the same under new
regulations as it is at present. Those
wishing replacement rubber will

New Blows al Nazis
Promised by Stain,

Soviet Premier Places
Enemy's Casualties at
More Than 10000
BY the Associated Press.

MOSCOW, Nov. THE Rus
slams celebrated the 25th ami
versary of the Bolshevist revolu-
ton today with encouraging
reports from defense fronts and
the assurance by Premier Joseph
Stain that new Soviet counter
blows soon would fall on Hitler's
battle-depleted armies. ~
1--WE can and must clear the Hit
lerite filth from our Soviet SOIL"
Stain declared in an order of the
day.
While tension mounts in the
fighting zones, the war leader said,
the Soviet people have emerged
from their trials with honor "and
are filled with an unshakeable faith
in victory"
He said more than 100000 in
vaders already had been put out of
action and that the day was not
far off when the German legions-
"watered down with Rumanians,
Hungarians, Italians and Finns"-
would feel the force of fresh Red
Army blows.
Following up a statement yester-
day that the Allies would open a
second front "sooner or later" Sta
lin gravely acknowledged gains
made by the Germans since June
through the concentration of forces
against Stalingrad and the Cau-
casus.
Carries Full Weight of War.
"The Red Army is carrying the
full weight of the war against Hit
lerite Germany and its accom-
plices," he said. "By its self f-sacri-
ficing struggle against the Fascist
army it has won the love and re-
spect of all freedom-loving peoples
of the world"
(The order of the day did not
speak of the Egyptian offensive,
the Allied air and sea war against
the Axis nor the supply of aid to
Russia from British and Ameri-
can factories)
Stain said it was essential to hold
present defenses and wear down the
enemy; to strengthen discipline, per-
feet training and prepare for the Of
fensive, and to fan the flames" of
guerrilla warfare at the Nazi rear
In his statement, made to Moscow
members of the Communist party
and other special organizations in q
secret meeting place, Stain de-
clared the Germans had been able
