Was in First Landing
At GuuduIconuI

Maj. William J. Burrows, 40-year-
old Marine Corps officer who was in
the first landing at Guadalcanal, is
back home visiting his family here,
but he's anxious to return to finish
the job"
The former law partner of Leo
Rover, one-time United States At
torney for the District, Maj. Bur-
rows was reluctant to discuss his
part in the marine landing on the
Solomons in an interview yester-
day at his home, 4614 Chesapeake
street NV.
II was only there a short time"
he said. And I'm no hero"
He admitted that he had tried
to win the battle Of the Solomons
all by himself, and was sent back
to the United States to recuperate
from battle fatigue at the Mare
Island Hospital in California.
Maj. Burrows, a native Of this
city, flew East for a short visit with
his wife and 4-year-old daughter,
Joyce. He is now awaiting further
orders.
He appeared anxious to return to
the Pacific war area, and said he
had asked for duty there again.
Il want to get back on the job.
The sooner the better" he said.
AS for the Japs, they are mean,
tough fighters, Maj. Burrows said,
but they can be beaten.

Berry, II, a son of Mrs. Mckee by

preached the house yesterday after
noon-a few hours after the divorce
was granted.
Mrs. Mckee, however, charged
that Mr.. Mckee broke down the
door to force entrance.
Returning later with a deputy
sheriff and a writ of habeas corpus,
Mr.. Mckee and his attorney were
informed Of Terry's disappearance.
The divorce battle, which attor-
neys said in their arguments was
fought chiefly to gain Terry, was
marked by charges of extra-marital
intimacies on both sides. Mr.. Mckee
was given the child's custody nine

Army to Cut Coffee Ration
For Soldiers to Cup a Day
US. Troops Have Been Limited to
40 Cups Month Since January

Coffee rationing for the general
public doesn't go into effect until
November 20, but the War Depart
ment said yesterday that soldiers
have been limited to 40 cups OF
coffee a month at training camps
since January l, 1912. and soon will
face a further reduction to one cup
day.
The Army's coffee conservation
program antedates the order for
civilian rationing by nearly a year
materially increasing the quantity
of this beverage available for the
public. officials reminded.
Coffee Twice a Day in 1941.
Army master menus In 1941 called
for coffee twice day on the basis
Of servings requiring 7 pounds OF
coffee for each 100 men for each
meal, or total of IA pounds day
BY rigid control of brewing and
other steps calculated to get the
maximum benefit from each pound
Of coffee, it was possible by January
l to reduce requirements from tc
4 pounds per meal for each 100 men
At that time, it was explained, the
master menus called for serving
coffee go times each 30 days, or the
equivalent of twice daily, which re.

quired pounds for each 100 men.
This amount has gradually been
reduced until at present coffee Is
served 40 times each 30 days.
Yesterday the War Department
said these servings may be reduced
to 80 times each 80 days. or one cup
day. However, the 4-pound ra-
ton for each 100 men is to remain
in effect.
Increase in Supplies Shown.
This program is reflected not only
in increased supplies for civilian
consumers but also in the releasing
of shipping space.
Coffee still will be served once a
day, and suitable substitutes, such
as tea, milk, cocoa, fruit juices and
the like, will be served at the other
two meals. But even so, the con-
firmed coffee drinker-and there are
those in the Army, as in civilian
life-will. have to get along on one
cup.
Even the emergency ration kit the
soldier carries on the battlefield fur
nishes him only one cup of coffee
for three meals.

LOS ANGELES. Nov. I'll The
baby for which Mark T. Mckee,
white haired steamship executive,
and his wife, Evelyn, fought bitterly
in court still was denied to either of
them today.
Mr.. Mckee won formal custody
OF the child, 2-year-old Terry Alex
ander, along with a divorce from
Mrs. Mckee yesterday. But when he
went to her home to enforce the
courts order, his wife said Terry
had vanished.
Mrs. Mckee, returned to Judge
Thurmond Clarke's court last night,
denied she knew her sons where
abouts but expressed the belief that
he was with her stepdaughter,
Cynthia, 20, who was granted tenn
porary custody during trial of the
divorce suit.
Cynthia, one Of Mr.. McKee's II
children by former marriage, sided
with her stepmother in the, trial
MI. Mckee issued a public appeal
to his daughter, saying he was con-
cerned not only for the baby but for
Cynnthia's future happiness and
assuring her "of a wholehearted
welcome from all of us"
The judge, meanwhile, amended
his court order to provide that the
girl and the baby could be taken
in custody anywhere in California.
The original order empowered au-
thorities to act only if they were
found in Mrs. McKee's home.
Mr.. Mckee and his attorney told
Judge Clarke they were threatened

Rationing Of Liquor
Urqed for War Period

Rationing of liquor as means of
cutting down on its consumption for
the duration Of the war was ad-
vocated here last night by DR.. j..
Raymond Schmidt, national legis-
lative superintendent of the Inter-
national Order OF Good Templars.
The time has come to ration, If
not prohibit, alcoholic beverages for
the duration" the speaker told a
meeting of the Independent Order
OF Rechabites at Fourth street NE.
Washington, he declared, was set

spree as though it is possible for

The speaker said that common
sense dictates that the health and
vitality Of our homes take precedence
over the profits of the brewers and
dfstillers."

when last heard from, and Gus is
slated to defend his light heavy
weight championship in the not

However, Promoter Mike has
