 James Wilmuth of San Bernardino reported seeing a low-flying plane over Lytle Creek with red and white flares of light" These flares, Army officials interpreted to be emergen- cy landing lights.
 Forest rangers, deputy sheriffs, and civilians are said to be aiding in the search, while Army planes en- deavor to scout the territory from the air. Snow falling most of the time on three days since the plane was reported missing greatly ham, pered the search from the air.
 The family and relatives of Lieut.. Maloney still continued to have hope that the Martin bomber of which he was co-pilot may have been brought safely to ground in some inaccessible region of the San Bernardino Moun- tains, although agreeing that the lat- est reports from California were not too encouraging and seemed to in- dicate that it may be some time be- fore any positive proof of what really happened is obtained.

 Throughout Nation
 Washington, Jan. 5-(UP)- The first war rationing program begins today with thousands of state and local tire rationing boards opening for business.
 Only a comparative handful of the driving public, which has been pur- chasing new tires at the rate of 4,- 100000 a month, will be able to buy any of the 141,191 available for sale this month. Only 95 ,530 tubes will be available for essential passenger cars, motorcycles and light trucks and but 242,783 new tires and 202,- 966 tubes can be sold to truck and bus operators this month. Non-es- sential motorists-and that means most-are not eligible to buy tires at all.
 It is not going to be easy for those motorists who do fall within the eligible groups to get new tire or tube. According to the government rationing regulation, the old tires practically will have to be in tatters before replacements are authorized.
 For example, the doctor on your street may think he needs new tire. First, he must fill out an application giving, his own pedigree as well as the cars.
 Then a recognized inspector will take a look at the tire-keeping in mind the possibility that the casing may be retreaded or recapped. Then the inspector states on the applica- tion that he has inspected the tires and tubes and describes their condi- tion.
 Does Doctor Need One
 The local three man board then determines whether the doctor needs a new tire. If he does, it gives him a certificate with which, plus the cash. he can purchase one.
 As expected by officials in charge of the rationing program, many in- teresting situations have developed. In Dagget county, Utah, authorities claim to be confused because they have but one tire and one tube to distribute this month. Only 25 per- cent of monthly allotment may be issued In seven day period, ac- cording to the regulations, and the citizenry is wondering what to do with the one tire and one tube.
 There are no problems regarding distribution for passenger cars, mo- torcycles and light trucks in two counties-Alpine, Cal, and Hilsdale, Col.-they have no tires to sell.
 Price Administrator Leon Tender son advises persons outside terms of the first rationing order not to get "panicky" as the average motorcar man still can run more than 5000 miles if its tires are properly cared for. Retreaded and used tires are not yet under government control.

Invocation Given As
 Court Session Opens
Father Reilly Offciates as l942 Term of Municipal
 Court Gets Underway; Ask Blessings for All

elled court formally into session for the year of 1922.
 The prayer follows:
 O God, great and omnipotent judge of the living and of the dead, before whom we are all to appear after this short life to render an account of our works, grant we beseech Thee, that this session of Municipal Court may be con- vened and fashioned this morning in facsimile, Of Thy own immut- able judiciary.
 May all therefore, who have re- course to this civil bar of justice, or those who make appeal to it, find within it's hallowed precincts 8 tribunal initiative of Thy Divine Justice; to the end that the clients who appear before this court, whether chastised or con- doned, may be blessed in the knowledge of civil law, and sancti- fled in that Law which is External.
 Enlighten Dear God, the minds and inflame the hearts of those jurists who plead their cases herein, that they respect the nat, tural as we'll as the Divine law, and proceed at all times with charity, clemency and equanimity.
 Likewise, assist with Thy Holy Spirit of counsel and fortitude the judges who preside that they may be eminently impartial to those whom they judge, flavoring their recommendations with a justice and mercy, in conformity with morality and religion.
 Finally, dear God, teach all Thy peoples to walk in Christ's foot steps in the observance of the Law of Love, to the end that the menacing shadows of the present conflict may be dissipated soon, and concealed forever by the mantle of Thy Peace.
 All this we ask in our prayer this morning in the name of Jesus Christ Thy Son, who in union with Thee and the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth for ever world without end. Amen.

Australia Makes Up

Melbourne, Australia, Jan. - (UP)- Emergency measures were announced by the government to- day to strengthen home defense aft- CT two Japanese aerial attacks on the Bismarck islands in the Aus tralian defense zone.
 Air Minister Arthur s. Drakeford announced that the Royal Austral- ian Air Force would be built up because of the increased danger and that the government would take care to see that the number of competent pilots required to man national air defense would be main- tained inside the country. To this end, he said, Australia's commit ments under the empire air train- ing scheme were being examined.
 (This would imply that Australia might reduce the number of men provided for training under the em- pire air force pool)
 It was announced also that about 50 more officers of the Australian imperial force now serving in the middle east would be recalled to Australia to assist In stiffening and training Australian troops in meth- ods of modern warfare for home de- fense.
 Authoritative sources said United States naval aid would soon reach Australia, operating from Austral- ian and New Zealand bases under the Pacific defense plan.
 Prime Minister John Curtin said in 8 statement on the plan yester- day that the defensive inter-de-

undermine public confidence in our armed forces"
 War Communique
 Washington, January 5-(UP) = The war department said today that American and Philippine troops yesterday repulsed a heavy Japa- nese frontal attack, killing at least 700 invaders.
 The Japanese, attacking the forces of Gen. Douglas Macarthur, commander of the U. s. far eastern forces, suffered one of the most serious reverses' since the war be- gan, a communiue said.
 It said that our own losses were relatively small.
 The Japanese bombed the forti- fled island of Corregidor in Manila Bay for the fourth successive day, but U. s. anti-aircraft batteries shot down four bombers, and hit four others.
 The department said that 52 Jap- anese war planes participated in the latest attack on the fortress for more than three hours on Sunday, but that they caused only slight material damage and casualties.
 This means that the ground bat teries at Corregidor have now defi- nitely shot down IS Japanese bomb- CTS.
 Turning to the big Japanese attack on American forces northwest of Manila, presumably in the Batan peninsula or nearby Pampanga province, the department said that the invaders had attempted to close a pincers on U. s. forces, and de- stroy them by weight of greatly superior numbers.
 "The tactics pursued by the Japa- nese in the invasion of Luzon con- templated crushing the greatly out numbered defenders between two invading forces operating as pincers from the north and south," the communique said.
 'The Japanese trap was closed but American and Philippine troops were not in the jaws. To this extent the Japanese strategy failed, neces- sitating yesterdays frontal attack, which likewise failed"
 Although MacArthur's forces beat off the invaders and inflicted heavy losses, observers here did not regard it as a final decisive action. They were greatly cheered by the results, however.
 Tt is estimated that at least 700 of the enemy were killed in this at- tack" the communique said.
 "Our losses were relatively small.
 "This was one of the most serious reverses suffered by the Japanese invaders since the war began"

 10 TO HOSPITAL

Hartford, Conn.,, Jan. 5-(UP)-A defective heating system was blamed today for the spreading of coal gas fumes through the Ideal rooming houose Sunday, sending 10 persons to the hospital.
 Eight of the 10 persons were un- conscious when taken from their rooms in the downtown rooming house. Hartford hospital authori- ties said none was in serious con- dition.
