The war is coming closer to Boys

Senators Will Offer
Cargo-CarrYing Plane
Fleet Measure Today
Would Create Military
Supply Board; Higgins,
Kaiser to Be Called
Py tte Associated Press.

Py he Associated Press.
A bill creating military supply
board to direct the immediate con-
struction of feet Of cargo-c carrying
airplanes was ready for introduction
in the Senate today by Senators Lee
Of Oklahoma and johnson of Colo
RADIO, Democrats.
The primary purpose of the air
feet would be to supply the needs of
American forces stationed in Alaska,
Hawaii and on foreign soil. but the
planes also would be utilized to
carry supplies to forces of the
United Nations in all parts of the
world.
Asserting that something must be
done at once to offset the loss of
merchant shipping by submarines.
Senator Lee told reporters he would
seek to have the measure referred to
the Military Affairs Committee for
immediate consideration.
Committee Chairman REYNOLDS
said that if this course were followed
he would schedule hearings at which
Henry j. Kaiser, West Coast ship
builder. Andrew jackson Higgins.
New Orleans ship builder, and avia-
ton experts and military officials
would be called to testify.
Mr., Kaiser recently proposed that
nine shipbuilding yards be assigned
to construct flying boats similar to
the 70-ton craft Mars" built by the
Glenn L. Martin Co. of Baltimore
and Senator Lee said the proposed
measure would make such a program
possible.
I'VE have got to do something
to defeat the submarine menace, ;"
Senator Lee told reporters, "and l
believe the construction of cargo
carrying airplanes may be the an
sWer. I expect there will be OBJ
lections from official sources that
it can't be done. but maybe we can
find out in hearings whether the
obstacles are insurmountable or not"
Support of the proposal was voiced
by Senator Pepper, Democrat, of
Florida. who told reporters that I'VE
aren't winning the battle with the
submarines and I think the cargo
carrying plane is feasible and might
be the solution"
The resolution drafted by Sena-
tors Lee and Johnson would create
a supply board composed of the
Secretary of War, Secretary of Navy,
War Shipping Administrator and
chairman Of the War Production
Board.
This board would be directed to
proceed Immediately with the con-
struction of such flying boats and
land-based airplanes for carrying
troops and cargo as in its opinion
will be necessary to supplement- the
shipping facilities now available and
in process of construction"

Meeting Stalingrad with the North
Caucasus.
Russian dispatches told of great
German losses in the fighting to
establish and hold their bridgeheads,
with Soviet artillery and planes
blasting scores of Nazi tanks into
the river.
Russians and Germans grappled
hand -to-hand on the southern bank
of the Don as large units clashed
amid smoke and flames and bursting
bombs at the waters edge.
All along the 120-mile stretch of
the Don from Rostov to Tsimlyansk
the fighting ragged. Soviet artillery
men sent tons of shells screaming
across the river into German posi-
tions on the north bank. 1t was
not known whether the great Rus
sian army of the Caucasus had yet
been thrown into the battle. but the
din of the battle was approaching
the oil riches it guards.
Grim Fight at Novocherkassk.
The Red Army was reported to be
fighting grimly at Novocherkassk. 20
miles northeast of Rostov. and there
was no confirmation in Russian re-
ports of the German claim to have
captured that city.
The Russians were throwing
bombers, newly arrived from the
United States, and British and
American tanks into the bloody
struggle to halt the German push,
but fresh Nazi reinforcements also
were at hand.
Soviet scout planes reported that
the Germans were concentrating
new squadrons of fighters in the
Southern Don sector.
At least two squadrons of Amer
lean Airacobras were reported in
action 300 miles to the north of
Rostov at Voronezh, supporting the
Russian attacks there.
German reinforcements also were
being rushed into the Don bend
presumably for an assault along
the eastern course of the river in
the Stalingrad area. Red Star. Rus
sian Army newspaper, reported that
mans here while they were off bal
ance, inf1icting great damage.
There were incomplete reports OF
a great tank battle in the eastern
bend sector with 400 tanks engaged
But less alarm was shown for the
position of Stalingrad, on the Volga
than for the flaming 120-mile front
between Rostov and Tsimlyansk.
1t was believed the fighting here
] was only prelude to still greater
battles when the Germans launch
an all-out drive for the Caucasus.
Soviet Attacks Increase.
On the upper Don, the Soviet
counterattacks around Voronezh in
creased in fury and a communique
reported that "all Fascist attempts
to regain important positions were
unsuccessful. The Hitlerites are
SUSTAINING heavy losses.
The Red Army had succeeded ir
crossing to the west bank of tn.
river north of the city and dis
patches said ground had beer
gained to the west at other points
South of Voronezh another big bat
tie was developing, one dispatch
said.
German reinforcements also were
being brought up in the Voronezf
sector, the Russians said. The 71st
and 346th Germany Infantry Divi
slons, which already have beer
/ thrown into the battle, arrived only
| recently from France and the Meth.

Senator George already has pre-
dicted that majority of the COM

expressing an opinion that any sub
stantial increases made in the bill
would have to be in the form of some
new tax such as a sales or withhold
