The boys landed once on a
tiny island, but set out again
when they realized their chances
for an early rescue were slim.
Pfc. Fuhs described Preuss,
who lives at 1881 Marlboro in
Detroit. as Swell" They were
given dry clothes, turkey and
duck dinner by Preuss and his
wife who then drove them 70
their homes.
PARENTS ALARMED
Meanwhile, parents Of the
boys became alarmed when they
failed to return for ! p. m.

mans mother was particularly
concerned because Dick had his
tonsils out only Friday and ]
was afraid he'd take cold"
For Dick it was his first taste
of heavy seas. He expects more

gressmen against extension Of
gasoline rationing Dec. 1 that
the committee thought it best to
hear both sides of the rationing
ISSUE" Chairman Truman Cd
MOI told reporters.
The Presidents order, an
nounced last night, emphasized
that the need for extending what
Mr.. Roosevelt preferred to call
mileage rationing" as a rubber
conservation measure was be-
coming more acute daily.
1--WE must do everything with
in our power to see that the pro-
gram starts Dec. l because VIC
tory must not be delayed
through failure to support our
fighting forces" the President
said in identical letters to JET
fers and Henderson.
The effect of the Presidents
order was to reject pleas, mostly
from members of Congress from
oil-producing states, that nation
wide rationing was unnecessary.
These members last week FORM
ed an unofficial 15-man COM
mittee which recommended a
90-day delay.
OFT, STATE CI,AMOR
Their clamor led to a resump-
ton of hearings by q special
subcommittee of the House In
terstate Commerce Committee
studying the overall gasoline
and rubber situation. Both JEFF
fers and Henderson, testifying
at the hearings, declared ma
tionwide rationing was neces-
sary as a rubber conservation
measure.
They repeated this contention
in radio broadcast, last night in
which they were joined by I'm
dersecretary of War Robert Pat
terson and Rear Admiral Claude
A. Jones, assistant chief of pro-
curement and materials.

DeGau|le Aide,
Eden Confer
Gen. CotFoux,
Briton Hold folks

LONDON, Nov. q - R -
Foreign Secretary A n I hony
Eden, who has discouraged par
liamentary discussion of Ad-
miral Jean Darlan's status in
North Africa, conferred today
with Gen. Georges Catroux of
the fighting French movement.
General Catroux, DeGaullist
commander in the Levant and
member of the French National
Committee, recently arrive d
from Beirut to report to the
committee on the political, mil
itary and economic situation of
Syria and Lebanon.
It was not stated whether he
and Eden discussed Darlan, who
is far from acceptable to the
fighting French for permanent
authority over North African
colonies.
Disgruntled at the British
governments refusal to permit
debate over Darlan's position as
civil administrator of North AZ
RIGA, General Charles DeGaulle,
leader of the fighting French, is
expected in local political cir
cles to make strong personal
appeal" to the United States to
change Darlan's status.
Eden flatly refused a demand
by minority members of Com
mons yesterday for time to de-
bate a motion disappearing the
Darlan deal, which President
Roosevelt said was motivated by
wartime expediency.
In shelving the motion drawn
up by l. members, Eden pointed
out that the issue was mot
purely, or even mainly, a Brit
ish question:" since the United
States is the main military
power in North Africa.
De Gaulle's fighting French
are opposed to dealing with OAR
Ian at all, or recognizing him
even temporarily as civil admin
istrator. Recently they discon-
tinued their broadcast appeals to
the people of occupied France.

Coach
Continued from Pare I

when we reached the is
land, not knowing whether Japs
were around, we pulled every
thing back into the jungle and
made bed for Levi, the bomba-
der, on one of the boats and
made him as comfortable as we
could. That was about the mid
die of the morning.
1.-TWO boats full of black nat
ives came over to us. One Of
them spoke little English and
they helped us build shelters. In
the afternoon, some others came
over in a hundred-foot canoe
that would make any crew at
Poughkeepsie look sick. They
had a beautiful even swing.

Two Soldiers
Slain in Riot
Negroes, Military
Police Fire VoIleys

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. q -
(P) - Two persons were killed
and at least IL wounded early
today in a three hour gun battle
between Negro soldiers and mil
itary and civilian police.
Police Chief Don Steward
said that he had man "shot
out from either side of me-"
during the melee.
The riot, which Steward said
started when a Negro military
policeman attempted to arrest a
recalcitrant, brought more than
100 military and civilian police
officers to the scene and %
blocks were placed under army
control. Steward emphasized
that it was entirely a Negro af-
fair.
TWO SLAIN
The dead:
Robert Riley, AZ, Negro,
Phoenix, found shot to death in
his car.
An unidentified Negro soldier,
whose body was found sprawl
ed in the street soon after the
shooting started.
Among the men injured when
white military and civil police
called:
1t. August J. Essman, 80, for
mer Sheridan, Ore, football
coach, shot in the abdomen.
The most seriously hurt, in
addition to Essman, are a Negro
sergeant and private, the adj
dresses of whom are unknown.
A white Phoenix police officer
was hospitalized.
Available executive officers
at the encampment where the
Negro soldiers were stationed
had no comment. Newsmen
were referred to Col. Fred Ellis,
regimental commander, who
was called when the trouble
started.
ARMORED PATROL
An armored military car pa
troled the scene Immediately af-
ter the shooting stopped, the
police department reported.
Assisting military authorities,
in addition to Steward, were
Sheriff Lon Jordan and Horace
Moore, state highway patrol SUI
perintendent.
The trouble, the police depart
ment reported, started when a
military policeman shot a
Negro soldier. Officers said COM
panions of the wounded soldier
returned with Garand rifles and
other army equipment.
Among the casualties was a
reporter from the Arizona Re-
public who reported one of his
shoes was shot off.

Rundstedt will be in charge of

and will take all decisions in
French territory"
All French Naval and Army
forces were demobilized by Hit
ler's order. The armistice of
1910 had allowed France an
Army of 10000 men.
The communique contained
only the line that part of the
French fleet has scuttled itself"
and it was not known which or
how many of the 81 French war
vessels-including three battle
ships-of Frances Mediterran-
can fleet were at the bottom Of
Toulon Harbor.
The order to enter Toulon was
given by the Axis war leaders
last night ito prevent the French
fleet from putting to sea as plan
ned and to demobilze insure
contingents of the French
Army" it said.
THE COMMUNIQUE SAID:
After attacks by British and
American forces on the French
Colonial Empire, German and
Italian troops have marched in
the remainder of unoccupied
France in order, together with
French armed forces, to protect
this region against further viola
ton by the British and Amer
lean aggressors.
After the undertaking, on
their word of honor, by French
troops and commanders of the
fleet to work with their units
within the framework of the
common defense, the French
Army, by the Fuehrer's wish,
was not only left untouched but
was partly strengthened and
equipped, and particularly the
sector of Toulon, with the
French Mediterranean fleet, was
left to French defense"
CITES ESCAPE ATTEMPT
In the meantime, breaches of
their word of .honorl and at
tempts at escape9by hi h French
officers have become frequent.
ut has likewise been ascer-
tanned that systematic instiga-
ton of the French Army, which
was ready to collaborate, by An
glo-Saxon influences continued
to spread still further and in the
last few days reached the fleet
at Toulon.
1T was in realization of the
fact that this political cleft in
the French Army, endangering
the safety of the German troops
of occupation and undermining
the authorities of the French
government, that the Fuehrer
and the Duce last night gave the
order to occupy the port of Tou-
Ion to prevent the French Med
iterranean fleet from putting to
sea as planned and to demobilize
insure contingents of the French
Army.
German and Italian troops
followed this order instantane-
ously and nipped in the bud the
resistance of elements instigated
by Anglo-Saxon influence which
flared up at isolated points and
in a few hours carried out their
allotted tasks.
1.-THE town and port Of Tou-
lon have been in the hands of
our troops since early morning.
Part of the French fleet has
scuttled itself in spite of the
counter order of the French gov
eminent.

dissolved French units will
shortly be carried out"
