At the same time, the agency
said traffic volume on rural roads
during June was down 80 per cent
in the gasoline e-rationed East and
down % per cent in non-rationed

ject.

vestigation was prompted by re-
ceipt of a letter from Chairman
Truman of the Senate Defense In
vestigating Committee. charging the
Navy's Bureau of Ships with negli-
gence and willful misconduct in de-
signing an invasion vehicle. Senator
Truman later said he was referring
to barees by which troops are land
ed in an amphibious operation.
The Truman letter charged the
Bureau of Ships with bias and pref
udice against the Higgins company

of a large number of cargo vessels

Halted by WoIkout
At Graphite Bronze Co.
By the Associated Press.

CLEVELAND, Aug. 1l.--A walk
out by members of the Independ-
ent Mechanics Educational Society
Of America today virtually halted
production at the two plants of the
Cleveland Graphite Bronze Co., ma
jor producer of warplane parts.
William Bullock, union business
agent, termed the work stoppage a
labor holiday" called in protest
against discriminatory discharges"
and said idleness of 1000 of the
company's 5000 employees COM
pletely shut down" the plants.
A company spokesman confirmed
that 1000 were out and the plants
virtually shut down" but said some
employees remained at their jobs and
others had returned to work.
The company reported there was
no picketing at either of its plants.
In an effort to obtain early set
tlement of grievances, upon and
company representatives agreed to
meet later today.
The work stoppage is the third
in less than two months at Graphite
Bronze. A two-member War Labor
Board panel had opened hearing
on union grievances here only yes
terday.
Union officials said the principal
issue was the recent discharge of 81
workers. The company declared the
men were discharged for taking un-
authorized time off, incompetence
and reporting for work in an unfit
condition, while the union con-
tended they were fired for union
activities.
Other grievances include pro-
posed shift from piecework to day
rates and a revision Of toolroom

German Radio AssaiIs
Saboteurs' Execution
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE Ger
man radio, in its first comment on
the execution of six Nazi saboteurs
in Washington Saturday, said yes
terday the executions were "a seri-
Gus event whose consequences
enemy countries could not ignore. y
This quotation was attributed to a
German foreign Office spokesman.
BY its action, the radio said, the
United States forfeited the right of
protesting against the condemna-
tion Of saboteurs in the territory oc-
cupied by the German army"
"Henceforth," the German radio
said, mo one on the side of the enc
mics OF the Axis would IN the least
be entitled to criticize such German
measures In the hinterland of the
German front, particularly as such
measures would be also in the inter-
ests of the populations of the re-

Marines Declared
Most Effective in
Landing Operations
Low-SiIhouetted Boots
May Have Been Used
In SoIomons Attock
rv the Associated Press.

Snub-nosed, low-slung landing
boats. with twin machine guns jut-
ting from their armored bows and
80 to so fully armed Leathernecks
aboard, strike most effectively
against resistance in landing at
tacks. Marine Corps officials said
yesterday.
Such boats have been built for
the marines by the Higgins Ship
yards in New Orleans They may
we'll have been used in the Solomon
Islands landing battle. although
there was no definite information on
that point.
While old-stlye rubber landing
. boats are sometimes used in surprise
stabs at enemy coasts. the new
low -silhouetted craft strike better
in pitched battles, the of1cials said.
Garry Equipment in Boats.
They are piloted by a Navy man
or Coast Guardsman. The marines
climb down the side of the large
Navy ships or transports into the
landing boats, into which Is lowered
their full battle equipment, including
light machine guns. Later the ves-
sells are used to bring up the heavier
guns and mortars.
After the landing boats are loaded
and maneuvered into rendezvous,
they approach the shore in waves
with the men crouching behind the
boats armored bow and with the
helmsman the only occupant visible
from the shore.
AS the boats approach the shore,
the big guns of the feet blast loose
at the enemy's shore installations
while Fleet Marine Force planes
bomb and strafe from overhead.
Mad Dash to Beach.
After the enemys beach installa-
tions have been silenced, the bar
rage rests and the men hit the
shallow water carrying their weap-
ons overhead and make mad dash
to the beach.
At this stage the marines, as they
jump ashore, become visible to the
enemy for the first time. and the
landing operation is maneuvered in
way to avoid, as far as possible,
presenting a concentrated target to
enemy guns. Nevertheless, casual
ties in the first wave necessarily run
pretty high," corps spokesman
said
While the men seize a toehold on
the beach, new waves of landing
boats arrive carrying light tanks and
scout cars to force the enemy back.
In addition to their fighting equip
ment each marine carries two
| days ration in case ne should be-
come separated from his fellows.

Pittsburgh Hears
Renewed Talk Of
Steel Price Boost
CIO Pay Dispute With
Big Companies Heads
For Labor Boord
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, Aug. 11.-Renewed
talk of a drive for higher steel
prices was heard today as dead
locked contract negotiations be-
tween the CIO United Steel Workers
Union and five principal operating
subsidiaries OF the United States
Steel Corp headed for the National
War Labor Board.
Formal announcement of the par
ley's breakdown came last night.
Later the Labor Board disclosed
that Jesse Freidin, mediation officer,
will meet here today with CIO
President Philip Murray and j. A..
Stephens, director OF industrial re-
lations for Big Steel" to discuss
procedure for handling their dis
pute.
Work Expected to Go On.
Both sides said they expected no
interruption in operations. The
statement issued by the subsidiaries
expressed the hope the board would
explore promptly and completely
the points of differences.
The union asked the corporation
to grant demands recommended re-
Gently by the Labor Board in the
Little Steel case involving Re-
public, Youngstown Sheet and Tube
Bethlehem and Inland Steel COM
panies. These included Accents
a-day pay raise retroactive to last
February 6. checkon of union dues
and maintenance of union shop.
Few following the big Steel" ne
gotiations closely had believed from
their start on July 81 an agreement
would develop on at least two biz
issues without governmental inter-
vention-retroactive pay, involving
almost $15,0000 600 of big Steel"
money, and the elimination Of sec
tional rate differentials The diff
ferentials were not decided in the
Little Steel case.
Steel Executives Remark.
Mr.. Murray has contended that
since the Little Steel" concerns
agreed to accept the boards deci-
sion, 1t is only fair to them and the
industry that other companies in
clude the retroactive pay.
A steel xecutive-refusing use Of
his name because he said he could
not afford to stick out my neck
remarked of the controversy:
THE union says its contracts are
sacred. The steel corporations
contract didn't expire officially until
Sunday So can't see how the
union or the board can expect gift
of several millions of dollars And
I don't see how one company can be
asked to upset sectional wage scales.
That is an industry wide matter,
or rather, a national one"

Dutch Slated for Transfer
Into Nuzi-HeId Soviet Areas
Mass Shift Described by Germon Press
As Compensation for Loss of Indies

3. To reduce Holland itself to
the status of semi -Germanized
province.
This same scheme might later be
applied to Serbian and Greek
patriots and the Nazis thereby would
transform the vast agricultural
steppes of Western Russia into con-
centration camps of forced labor on
a permanent basis.
DR.. Hans Frank. Hitler's boss in
Poland, recently declared the new
orders full victory required the
establishment of CLOSE collabora-
ton between the western and east
ern areas of the new German EN-
pire." DR.. Rosenbergs mass coloni-
cation scheme reveals the methods
whereby this collaboration is ex-
pected to be established.
Skilled LabOrers Shifted.
The Nazis have depleted the occu-
pied Russian territories of all skilled
laborers. They have shipped them
to Germany where they are scat
tered and isolated in small groups,
forced to work without pay under
special overseers But the great ma
jority of the 100000 Russians in
the occupied territories could not
provide skilled labor. Instead, the
populations of entire villages or dis
tricts have been transplanted to
prevent them from aiding in guer-
rilla warfare against the con-
querors.
1t is reported that DR.. Rosenberg
has peculiar means of recreating
the German Baltic barons of feudal
times simply by offering the mem
bers of the S. S. troops Hitler S
blackguards) special preference for
land holdings in the richest Russian
agricultural regions. S. S. men also
are being picked for master" posi-
tions as farm directors, organizers
and foremen, who would reap the
lions profits from the labors of Rus
slams, Dutch. Jewish or non party
German farm workers in the new
ordered White Russia and Ukraine.
