Sugar Ration Likely
To Be Under Pound,
Henderson Reveals
Public Eotins Places,
Seasonal Uses to
Cut FumiIy Shore

The Nations sugar users today
were faced with the prospect of an
initial rationing of not more than
three-quarters Of pound per per-
son each week for home consump-
ton, instead Of the one-pound por-
ton estimated when the rationing
program was announced over the
week end.
Price Administrator Leon Hen
derson explained last night that
stocks will permit an allotment Of
about so pounds year to each per-
son. but that part Of this average
will be consumed by persons who
eat in hotels, restaurants and in
stitutions.
= Sales for home use, therefore, will
have to be curtailed to the extent
necessary to allow for use in such
establishments. Mr.. Henderson also
noted that some sugar would have
to be held back early in the year to
meet seasonal demands for home
canning during the summer months
and for the winter holidays.
TT may be necessary at the out
set Of the plan to hold sales down
so that existing stocks can be dis
tributed equitably throughout the
country" Mr.. Henderson pointed
out. thus assuring adequate sup
plies in all areas"
o. P. A. officials insist they have
plans for recovering boarded sugar
supplies even from shelves of house
holders. If necessary, and advised
persons having large stocks on hand
to begin using them Immediately
Mr.. Henderson, in addition, appealed
to housewives to consume boarded
sugar before buying additional sup
plies as q patriotic duty.
This is an opportunity for every
one to make q personal contribution
to the war" he said. THE Army
and Navy need alcohol derived from
sugar to make smokeless powder
Saving on sugar means powder fol
our soldiers and sailors"
The aim of the o. p. A. is to re-
duce consumption from an average
Of about rs pounds per person in
1941 to about so pounds in 1912, OF
a general reduction in both indus
trial and household use Of approx
imately one-third. The program is
expected to get underway early next
month. Ration cards have been sent
to printers.

expect and I have made no Sc
cret of it that we shall both receive
severe i'll usage at Japanese hands in
1912.
But I believe; we shall presently
regain naval command in the Pa
ciflc and begin to establish effective
superiority In the air.
Then later on, from the great
basic areas Of Australia, India and
the Dutch East Indies, we shall be
able to set about our tasks in good
style in 1943.
Defeat of Japan would not neces-
sarily entail defeat of Hitler. where
as defeat of Hitler will enable the
whole force of the United Nations
to be concentrated on the defeat of
Japan.
But there is no question of regard
ing the war in the Pacific as a sec
ondary operation. The only limita-
ton to its vigorous prosecution will
be the shipping available.
1t is most important that we
should not overlook the enormous
contribution of China to this
struggle for world freedom and de-
mocracy. If there is any lesson I
brought back from the United States
that I could express in one word it
would be China.
When we feel the sharp military
qualities of Japanese soldiery in con-
tact with our own troops, we must
remember that China, alarmed or
half-armed, has for four and a half
years single-handed withstood under
her glorious leader. Gen. Chang
Kai-shek, the main fury of Japan.
We shall pursue the struggle hand
in hand with China and do every
thing in our power to give them
arms and supplies, which are all
they need to vanquish the invader
and play a magnificent part in the
forward movement of the United
Nations.

months later many shortcomings,
mistakes and disappointments.
It is because, however, I see a
light cleaning behind the clouds
and broadening upon our path, that
I make bold now to demand dec
laration of confidence of the House
of Commons as an additional weap-
on in the armory of the United

Advancing Red Army
Moves Deeply Into
SmoIensk Province
Russiuns Make Mozhoisk
Assembly Point for
Seized Nuzi Loot
BY EDDY GILMORE,

WITH THE RED ARMY ON
THE CENTRAL FRONT, Jan. 81.
The Russian Army, continuing
its deadly fanking movements,
moved deeply into Smolensk
Province today after clearing the
last German from the Province
of Moscow.
Mozhaisk, the battered and ruined
highwater mark of the Germans
advance west of the capital, where
they withstood the furious Red Army
counterattack for so long, has been
converted into an assembly point
for trophies captured from the
Nazis.
When we passed through Mozhaisk
and moved up with the troops
toward Gzhatsk we saw some of the
Soviet activities in collecting this
booty.
Litter Roads for Miles.
Tanks which litter the roads for
miles are being hauled out of the
snow and dragged by tractors to the
Mozhaisk Railway. Some of them
look to be in excellent condition.
In the loot are many motor
vehicles - trucks for transporting
troops, machines for hauling big
guns, small gun carriers. Among
other materials were $50 tons of
barbed wire.
The Germans had removed the
engines from some of the vehicles,
but many others seemed capable of
operating after overhaul and repairs.
Those which were badly smashed
by Red Army artillery and grenades
are being combed for unchanged
parts and the rest shipped of as
scrap steel and iron to the Soviet
munitions mills.
1t. Gen. Leonid Govorov. whose
soft voice contrasts sharply with
his roaring cannon, told us the Ger
mans are moving the remnants of
their shattered tank divisions to
Germany to prepare them for a
great tank offensive in the spring.
I'VE learn from German prisoners
that they want to hit us while they
still have superiority in tanks" he
said.
will they still have superiority
in the spring." he was asked.
That depends partly on the full
fillment of our Allies pledges" he
replied.
Tank Strategy Shifted.
At present, he said, the Germans
no longer were using tanks in the
mass, only two or three in a group
which usually Is attached to a bat
talon.
Tall, broad-shouldered, his blue
eyes cleaning over a red tablecloth,
the general whose artillery is largely
credited with smashing the Ger
mans Mozhaisk salient, told us his
ideas on the best way to beat the
Nazis. After artillery, the best
weapon against tanks Is tanks, he
said.
Gen. Govorov also said the Rus
slams are traditionally good bayonet
fighters and the Germans are not;
British tanks are being used to good
effect; the Red air, force is active
in offensive operations.

The House will see how our re-

small margin and what strokes OF

Of our shipping, Our flotilla, every

The sugar shortage, examination of Japanese canned fish for glass, the detection of adulterants in olive oil, and other subjects which touch on our participation in the war are among these discussed in the an- nual Report on Food and Drugs, is- sued as Bulletin 460 of the Con- necticut Agricultural Station at New Haven this month.
 pr, F. M. Bailey, chemist in charge of the analytical laboratory who presents the report, says of this years issue: 'ThiS work, aimed to prevent adulteration and nliSbrand- ing of foods, drugs and cosmetics, is in the interest of public welfare and safety in normal times. It is even more important in times of emergency like the present. Dtslo- cation of sources of normal supply and of normal manufacturing and distributing practices may result in debasement, perhaps unwittingly by the scyupulous. Sabotage may oc- cur, but unwarranted suspicion of 1t is more likely. Illustrations are the numerous cases of adulterated and miSbranded olive oil that have been found, due to the stoppage of im- portations, and the widespread suspicion of canned crab meat al- leged to contain ground glass"
 Ground Glass In Canned Fish
 Alarm over ground glass" in cans of Japanese packed fish is dispelled by the report which states that the particles which suggest ground glass to the consumer are In reality harmless struvite crystals, believed to be formed during the canning process. Over 14O Sampes of canned crab meat, tuna and smoked salmon, practically all representing Japanese packing, were examined at the Sta ton during the year. None of the samples contained ground glass.
 Jerusalem artichoke, dahlia bulbs and chicory may seem far removed from a solution of the sugar short age, but they contain substance known as "inulin", which can be converted into 8 pure sugar. These and other sugar Suppliers, such as beets, maple trees, bees and corn and the chemistry of their pro- duets, are taken up in some detail in the new bulletin.
 With importations of European office oil cut off 1t was expected that stocks cS imported olive oil on hand as well as the domestic supply would be largely adulterated, and that other domestic vegetable oils
