 Washington, Nov. 6-(UP)-The battle of Guadalcanal ragged today on two fronts barely 20 miles apart with Americans holding the initia- tive, capturing more valuable equipment, and inflicting compara- lively heavy losses on the Japanese.
 The battle for the strategic Solo, mon islands, which is three months old today, has reverted temporarily to land battle on Guadalcanal island. Last month the fighting ragged for two weeks on land, sea, and air not only on Guadalcanal but in the surrounding waters for hundreds of miles around.
 Although American planes and warships continue to blast enemy positions on Guadalcanal, there has been no mention for 10 days in naval communiques of enemy air or naval activity. But the Japanese haven't withdrawn, because on two nights of this week enemy troops have been landed east of the air. field on the north shore of the is- land.
 The two Guadalcanal land fronts are to the east and to the west of the air field on the north coast of the island.
 The fighting on the east front the first in that sector since early in .August-began at dawn Wednes- day (island time) when the marines attacked enemy troops which had landed the night before. east of Koli Point, about six miles east of the airfeld. The marines were re- pulsed in their initial attack, but the latest word received by the navy was that they are pressing their attack
 The Koli Point battle is just little east of the scene of the battle of the Tenaru river in August when marines, supported by tank units, slaughtered all but about 30 of TOO Japanese troops who tried to cap- ture the airfeld.
 The western front on which Americans began an offensive nine days ago still remains the main theater of war on Guadalcanal, Last nights communique brought action there through Tuesday night when American naval forces shelled enemy positions near KokuMbona, about 10 miles west of the airfield.

MENJOU TO PUT

Noted Actor Plans Short Wave BrOadcasts in 9

United Press staff Correspondent
 New York. Nov. 6 = tU.P) - Adolphe Menjou, the man In the double breasted vest, fixed himself up today to put some Naxis on the spot by asking them embarrassing questions.
 The movie actor, who is known to millions of Europeans and has a personal acquaintance with many in high places there, is preparing to broadcast in nine or more langu- ages personal exhortations to form CT friends, urging them to turn against Hitler and Mussolini. He also wants to let his screen fans abroad know what Americans think of the Axis. The talks will be short waved by the Ofiice of War Inform ation, he said.
 Menjou hastened to New York from Hollywood for the premier of You Never Were Lovelier" bubbling over with his idea to make war use of his wide range of acquaintance ships abroad.
 He will address, for instance, Dr. Herbert Schultz. one of the 1000 members of Hitler's honorary life guard, and recall their various meetings abroad the Bremen, at the Adlon in Berlin, and in America, where Schultz was an embassy at tache.
 "The FBI arrested him in Bos- ten and deported him." Menjou said. T learned later he was the chief gestapo agent here. Well, when I talk to him I'll say: When I knew you, Schultz, didn't know you were one of Himmler's men. Is 1t true that he goes into concentration camps and beats up Germans there for bis personal pleasure? If he does he isn't German. He's more like one of these half-monkey Japs.'

HOUSE EXPECTED

Elimination of Senate Amendment to Teen Age
 Draft Predicted

Washington, November 6. - (UPl - Administration leaders predicted today that the House would back up Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson's demand for elimination of the Senate amendment 70 the 18-l9-year-old draft bill calling for a years precombat training for the 'teen-age draftees.
 The Senate version of the bill, in cluding the provision for one year of training in the continental United States before the men can be sent overseas, comes Up in the House Monday.
 Representative John Rankin, D.. Miss. said he would demand a roll call unless the House agrees to his motion to instruct committee con- ferees to accept the Senate amend ment. Rankin's move would put every representative present on rec ord as favoring or opposing the amendment.
 Administration optimism on the question of knocking out the amend ment, which has been opposed by both Army and Navy officials. came from Democratic whip, Robert Ramspeck. D., and Military Affais Committee chairman, Andrew J. May, D., Ky.
 Both predicted house rejection of the amendment because of Stim- sons statement that its adoption would freeze" efficient military training.
 Rankin was just as confident that his motion would carry. saying 4 would pass unanimously. He added that he did not think Presi- dent Roosevelt would veto the bEll, as has been predicted. if the Senate amendment were left in.

Great Concentration of Naval Air Strength at
 British Base HOURLY RADIO REPORTS
 RUMORS ON MOVES CasabIanca, Dakar Are Considered Danger Points
 By Axis Powers
BY EDWARD w. BEATTIE United Press Staff Correspondent,

BY EDWARD W. BEATTIE United Press Staff COrrespondentD
 London, November 6. U (UP) - Axis invasion fears today appeared to be reach ing an acute stage, spurred by reports of a huge concen- tration of naval strength, transports and planes at Gi- braltar and the growing magnitude of the British vic- tory in Egypt.
 A Stockholm report from Madrid said that vast quantities of tanks and planes" have been massed at Gibraltar, presumably for the in- tention of "opening a second front in Europe with Gibraltar as the base"
 The London Evening News quoted the controlled Paris radio as reporting that additional Royal Air Force squadrons have arrived at Gibraltar.
 The British Press association sug- gested that in a Hast desperate effort" to reinforcce Marshal Erwin Rommel, the Italian fleet may be called out and that great Medi- terranean sea battle might result,
 The German radio circulated anxious reports that seven mora British destroyers have steamed into Gibraltar. bringing the total Allied naval strength at the west ern Mediterranean base to l25 ships including the battleship Rodney. three aircraft carriers, seven cruis- CTS. B destroyers and large num- bers of auxiliaries and transports
 Reports Circulating
 The radio stations of Berlin. Rome and vichy were circulating almost hourly reports and rumors of possible Allied moves at the western end of the Mediterranean or northwest Africa, obviously with @ view to drawing out London on any plans for offensive action.
 These reports cited both Casa blanca in French Morocco and Dakar, the great West Africai hase. both in control of vichy 1EancA. as danger spots for 8 DosSsAse Anglo American drive.
 Radio Rome went so f N zz speculate on the possible 4szsAsion of Italy when and if the Axis is completely cleared out of Africa.
 Axis fears that an Allied blow may strike at any moment far be- hind Marshal Erwin Rommel's batle lines in the desert were not lessened by the increasing score of the British victory.
 Advices from Egypt today left nc doubt that Rommel was striving desperately to save the remnants of the force of some 130, 900 to 140,- 900 men which he had concentrat- ed on the Alamein front.
 Units Moving West
 The remaining Axis argnOrea units were scurrying westward un the coastal road while the Italian infantry divisions appeared to have been left more or less to their fate.
 The Italian divisions included the remnants of the Ariete. and Litt0a armored divisions, the Trento and Trieste motorized divisions and the Bologna, Brescia. Pavia, and Folgore infantry units.
 The Italians were believed to bo cut of from food. munitions and oil supplies and forced to fall back on foot over the open desert and save themselves as best they could.
 There was considerable doubt whether Rommel would be able ts protect his own withdrawal un6e1

But the trouble with this OK
PLANTATION was that people who
had the worst adhesions were
freest from constipation and
administration.
As AGE advances, more and
"a more adhesionS occur in
the abdomen whether an opera
tion is performed or not.
These natural d h eS ions,
q which involve not only the large
bowel but also the gallbladder,
the appendix and the liver, can
hardly ever be said 10 be respon-
sible for any symptoms in these
organs. They are relatively SIM
pie and run true TO form, lack
ing variety in type.
1t was once the fashion, as /
have said. 10 ascribe all sorts of
dire sickness 10 these adhesions.
Surgeons waded in and cut
them out and sewed them over

London surgeon.
He said after he was revived,

Many Ills Falsely Blamed
On Abdominal Admissions
BY DIR. LOGAN CLENDENING

7 DO NOT believe we hear as
Il much about adhesions in the
abdomen as we used TO because
fashions change, but every once
in a while somebody gets an idea
that all their woes are due 10
adhesions rather than to vitamin
deficiency.
An adhesion occurs very fire.
quently in the abdomen because
the peritoneum which covers all
the organs OF the abdomen and
lines the inside of the abdominal
wall is very apt TO form these
bands of tissue.
There are two kinds of alb
dominal adhesions: one which is
congenital or develops naturally
in an individual with the devel-
opment Of the body, and the
other which is acquired and fol-
lows injury or a surgical opera
ton. -
IT is very tempting to ascribe
L all sorts Of symptoms 10 adj
hesions and this was frequently
done until a Boston physician
made an elaborate study to show
what the normal incidence OF
adhesions is.
He found that seven women
out of every/10 and eight men
out of every 30 had some kind OF
adhesions in the abdomen.
Only a very small proportion
of these people complained of
any abdominal trouble and when
they did. very few of them COM
planned in the same way.
For instance. the largest num-
Der of congenital adhesions is
found in the transverse part Of
the large intestine.
To some people this explained
the cause Of constipation and
autointoxication and all the rest
of the mumbo- Jumbo.

Of a great private group warn

QUESTIONS, ANSWERS


ED: Will X-ray show ulcers
or cancer of the stomach? Will
it also show the inteStines and
tell what may be the cause of
constipation and gas in these
regions?
Answer: Yes.
c. NJ. H.. Is a mixture Of
lemon juice and soda water con-
sidered good conditioner?
What is the difference in the
effect upon the system If II is
taken While effervescing or after
efferveScing? w hat chemical
change. if any. takes place in
the solution itself after effer-
vescence has stopped?
Answer: The term, "a good
conditioner" is a little indefi-
mite. 1 don't quite know what
you mean.
Lemon juice and soda water
tend to flush the kidneys and 1t
is often a help 10 digestion.
There is no chemical change
that occurs after effervescence
has stopped.
The effect of the efferveScene
is largely 10 make any drink
more palatable and make ii abb
sorb somewhat more rapidly.
