Naval Convovs Are The Answer

The depredatons of German U-boats in American constitute serious threat to successful trans portation of supplies and munitions to the fighting fronts There is use for Americans to minimize the danger Estimates of the number of vessels sunk vary but they total hundreds The German raiders have proWed close to American harbors, paying particular attention of unconVoyed shipping They have scored successes in the Gulf of Mexico, the mouth of the Mississippi the Gulf of the St Lawrence and all along the eastern coast.
 With the battle of production Won American indus try is turning out the implements of war at an amaz- ing speed. Already there hints of supplies pilng up, awaiting the necessary ships for transportation to the fighting fronts Encouraging is the production of merchants ships to replace those lost but this s at best, expensive and discouragng method of fight ing the U-boats
 The faVorite defense against submarine warfare is the naval convoy This system beat the U-boat threat in the first World War and is operating successfully in the present struggle The Navys attention has been centered upon the North Atlantic route to Britain and to Russia and the longer route to Australia In both oceans troop transports have been moved without the loss of ship and supply ships have delivered the goods to the fighting fronts without appreciabe loss
 American officials are confident that soon as ade- Quate Warships available to institute the convoy system the peril will come to an end
 That's one of the chief reasons for the high Naval appropriation in recent Weeks-Juneau Empire.

About The Shortage of Natural
 Rubber Sources In The U. s.
WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON - While the nation has been contributing garden hose, baby nipples and auto mats 10 the rubber salvage campaign, some Washington bureaucratS seem only half awake in trying to develop sources of new natural rubber.
 Six months now have passed since Pearl Harbor, and priceless time has been frittered away in getting rubber workers started in the jungles of the Amazon. During the Pan American Con ference last January. U. s. cx- perts dickered over prices but did almost nothing toward start ing an army of rubber workers up the Amazon.
 And after the Rio conference. more precious time was wasted while the State Department and the Bureau of Economic Warfare haggled over who should handle the rubber program in South America.
 A a result of all these delays. coupled with Brazilian ship sink lngs the unfortunate fact is that only 800 tons of rubber were i'm ported from Brazil in April. and only 10000 tons are expected dur ing the whole of 1942. And the armed forces, plus bare civilian needs. will require around 800000 tons.
 Finally, hybrid working ar rangement has been patched up between Jesse Jones, the State Department and the BEW, which still leaves Jesse Jones' Rubber Reserve, the outfit which was so short-slghtcd last year, virtually with final control.
 Russian Rubber
 Meanwhile, it has been reveal ed that experts of the Agricul- tural Department had been sitt- ing on two kinds of natural rub ber which can be grown in the southern United States and Mex ico. Filed away among the learn ed tonnes of the Departments scientists are reports on kok- sagyz and cryptostegia, both quick growing rubber plants But the Department of Africul- ture scientists had been doing very little about them.
 In contrast. the Russians in l94l planted the amazing total
The Nome nugget., 1942-07-03

of 5,000000 acres of kok -sagyz, which grows in temperate eli mates. Being more farsighted than Jesse Jones, they foresaw the possibility of war with Jap an and loss of rubber sources.
 After Pearl Harbor the United States gathered up all the kok- sagyz seed if could get from Russia and flew it here by plane, and il is now planted. But the amount of seed we could get was limited.
 Meanwhile, botanist in Brownsville, Tex. named Peter Heinz was bombarding Jesse Jones, various rubber experts and almost every member of Con gress with letters pointing to a rubber weed called cryptostegia, which grows in Mexico, Haiti, southern California and Florida. The letters which Heinz sent to Washington constitute a file more than a foot high. But nobody would listen to him.
 Ii should be said for the Agri- culture Department that ever since 1922 it's experts have been. asking Congress for money to ex- pertinent with natural rubber yielding plants. But Congress ap propriated only infnitesimal amounts.
 On the other hand, Agriculture Department experts certainly were not on their toes regarding cryptostegia. For as late of Jan. }, 1922. one month after Pearl HarbOr, they published a very discouraging report on its pos abilities.
 Red Tape UnWlnder
 The man who finally blasted cryptostegia out into the open was Miles Sherover, assistant rubber chief of the Bureau of Economic Warfare, who had pre- Viously organized rubber factor ies in Chile and Venezuela.
 He pointed out that despite the billion dollars being spent by Jesse Jones on synthetic rubber, and despite all we could scrape together in the Amazon, the ma tlon would be at least half a million tons short.

Reports received here last night
said British armed forces have en-
gagged the small japanese force
which entered Northern Selangor
and moved down the coast on BIZ
cycles.
This move would seem to indicate
an urgent desire by the enemy TO
secure a more direct approach to
this capital of the Federated Malay
States. possibly because OF diff1-
culties being experienced in sup
plying the Japanese forces in North
western Malaga and the dogged re-
sistance British and Indian troops
are putting up.
Despite the five-to-one numerical
superiority of the invaders. they are
being forced to fight every mile Of
the way.
Systematic Japanese bombing and

ton to attacks on roads and rail-
ways the Nipponese machine gum
ners also spray the bitches along

this afternoon I saw small feet

British Artinerymen
Blast Japs' Landing
Attempt in MaIaya
Guns Open Up When
Packed Launches Get
Into River Mouth
BY HARRY A. STANDISH,


Correspondent OF the Sydney Morning
Herald.
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaga, Jan
1 CDelayed) tN.A.N D.-Japanese
troops in relatively small force pre-
sumably operating from Penang. are
attempting a series of landings on
the coast of Selangor province in
Western Malaga.
One such attempt at the mouth of
small river was defeated by the
GOODNESS and efficiency of British
artillerymen. The japanese came
in close to shore in a number of
launches toward the river mouth,
which previous japanese air recon-
naissance apparently had reported
as undefended.
What the japanese observers had
failed to see were we'll Camouf1aged
and dispersed artillery units which
came into position as soon as the
landing attempt was reported.
The officer in charge waited until
the leading launches packed with
Japanese soldiers were right in the
river mouth and then opened fire
with deadly accuracy. The first
shell landed squarely between the
first two launches.
Invasion Fleet Flees.
The entire landing party then
turned tail and rushed toward the
open sea. One launch opened fire
with a machine gun. A bullet
knocked the top stud of British
gunner's steel helmet. but no other
damage or casualty was reported.
One launch was smashed and set
aflre and the mother ship" was hit
by a shell as was one of a string
of barges which she was towing
The mother ship then cut the
barges loose and the whole invasion
