program the local draft boards
would continue to act as induction
points, and would still maintain
their responsibility for dependency
and physical deferment decisions.
Recent testimony of manufac-
turers at closed hearings of the
Senate Labor Committee was cited
as grounds for immediate action.
Despite the War Manpower Com
missions plea that for every tool
maker available, 81 are needed, they
asserted responsible manufacturers
have informed them that such
skilled men are being inducted daily
into the Army.
They further asserted that the Sc
lective Service System is now induct-
ing at the rate of 100000 men a
month, and that since September
more men, including many in skilled
classifications, had been placed in
uniforms than during the first six
months of the systems operation
They charged that the placement Of
all manpower functions under Mr.
Ickes would end the conflict be-
tween the civilian and military au-
thorities in this vital field.
The Selective Service System ad-
mitted that it had a number of
military men in administrative posi-
tions, but. in the way of explanation,
it was said the majority were
National Guard or Reserve Corps
officers who do not know how TO
execute the elementary military COM
mand of squad right" 1t was further
explained that these men were ex-
perts in their respective fields in

informed the Associated Press at
Tulsa, that Mr.. Ickes had done "a
whale of job" as petroleum CO.
ordinator, and he said he had ap-
pealed to President Roosevelt to keep
Mr.. Ickes on the job. Mr.. Skelly
said many other oil executives were
joining him in asking that, if a
cabinet shift is made, Mr.. Ickes re-
main as oil co-ordinator.
Congressional leaders are known
to have discussed the overall prob
lens with Mr.. Ickes and he has
weighed carefully their feeling that
unless he is permitted to work out
balance between military and civil
ian demands his efforts might prove
disappointing.
Members Of Congress, including
Senators Truman of Missouri, Pep
per of Florida, Kilgore of West Vir-
ginia and Representative Tolan of
California, Democrats, have an
nounced they would support Mr..
1ckes for the manpower post. They
explained today that they feel his
long standing reputation for back
ing up policies makes him most
desirable to carry on an occupational
deferment and labor utilization pro-
gram, the need for which is being
pressed on them more and more
daily.
They contend that such a program
is the cornerstone of successful
manpower operation and they urge
Mr. Ickes to administer it on an
area rather than local basis, through
boards Of technically qualified per-
sons

Ickes Ready 10 Take
Labor Portfolio if
Held Best Suited
Secretary Will Confer
With Roosevelt Today
On Cabinet Switch
By JESSE O. IRWIN,

Secretary of the Interior Ickes
will accept the secretaryship of
Labor and the responsibility for
mobilizing the Nations man.
power if after a conference with
President Roosevelt he is con-
vinced the President believes he
is the man best suited to admin
lister that program, authoritative
sources said today.
Mr.. Ickes plans to confer with Mr..
Roosevelt during the day, and,
sources say that the cabinet official
will let it be known that he con-
siderS his Interior post and the
fuel Oil program Of Importance to
the war effort and is reluctant to
leave the department which he has
headed for almost a decade.
However, they said, he would nat
urally yield to the Presidents
wishes and to the desire of congress
slonal leaders that he make an ef-
fort to pull the manpoWer problem
out OF its So-called "muddle."
While it was reported that a pre-
llmlnary understanding was reached
when President Roosevelt rendered
Mr.. 1ckes the labor post last week,
sources said today's conference
would tend to clear up several
points, particularly as to Mr.. Ickes'
control over the Selective Service
System and the Presidents views on
occupational defermenU.
Announcement Awaited.
When Mr. Roosevelt will announce
his reported plan which also would
shift Secretary of Labor Perkins to
the Federal Security Agency and
Chairman Paul V. McNutt of the
War ManpoWer Commission to the
Interior post, is a matter of con-
lecture.
AT the Capitol Representative
Voorhls, Democrat, of California
strongly advocated a high command
on the home front to defeat con-
fusion, regardless Of possible cabinet
changes to deal with the manpower
problem. Appearing before a Senate
Labor Subcommittee, Mr.. Voorhis
lndorsed legislation for an Office of
war mobilization.
Apparently referring to reports
that Mr.. Ickes might be made man
power chief, Mr.. Voorhis said new
proposals regarding manpower" in
the press might well be the means
OF improving the situation. But in
my opinion they would not take the
place of this legislation" he said.
For even if all decisions regarding
manpoWer as such were concen-
trated III one place. there would still
remain the absolute necessity of CO.
ordinating manpower decisions with
those affecting production and pro-
Curement."
Step to End Confusion.
He declared that if the proposed
office Of war mobiliza ton could be
set up as an overall, policy-deter-
mining agency. the most important
possible step would have been taken
toward the elimination of confusion
and contradiction of policy and
toward giving us one agency whose
word would be final on matters of
production, material supply, effec-
tive use of manDower. ."

Jops Believed Attempting
To Build Up SoIomons Base

Navy reports yesterday indicated
that Japan's amphibious forces in
the South Seas, having repeatedly
failed TO break Americas hold on the
Southeastern Solomons, may be at
tempting to develop a powerful base
in the center of the archipelago
For the third straight day the
Nays Pacific war communique told
of American air action directed at
destruction of enemy ships or shore
installations in the New Georgia Is
lands area. While the enemy's &C
tivities appeared to be of a minor
nature, naval authorities here said
they might be evidence of Japan S
main strategy in the Solomons for
the time being,
Yesterdays report disclosed that
Army Flying FortreSses had at
tackled an enemy convoy of two car
go ships and three 6estroyers west
of the New Georgia group last Sat-
urday CSolomons time Five bomb
hits were scored on one of the cargo
carriers ar-d Of 10 Zero fighters
which tried to intercept the attack
three were shot down. The Amer
tcan planes suffered no serious
damage.
On Guadalcanal Island, meanwhile
United States patrols destroyed a
considerable quantity of japanese
arms and ammunition in the upper
Lunga River region, which is jungle
hill country south of the American
position centered around Henderson
Airfield. This mopping-up work
against enemy troops on the island
has been going on since Japan S
great reinforcement force was
wrecked and scattered two weeks ago
In the greatest naval battle of the
var to date.
Since that time it has been pre-
hicted by Secretary of the Navy
Knox and other high naval officials
that the japanese certainly would
make a comeback attempt, but now
in view of the activity in the New
Georgia region, some authorities
speculate that preliminary to any
return in force the Japs may try to
set up one or more strong bases
closer to Guadalcanal than any they
have heretofore possessed.

The agency also warned that
unless the Selective Service Act
itself is changed local draft boards
would still have the final say on who
goes in and stays out of the Army.
regardless of what office was placed
over the system"
Congressional sources said reports
coming in from American industry
are eloquent as to the way this
lack of central authority is upsetting
all calculations.
IF reports recently in circulation
Of 000.000-man armed force
proved TO be ultimately correct,
they said, ''the current disturb
ances are just beginning; already,
the present monthly drafts are
creating widespread confusion.
Recent developments have gone
beyond anything foreseen by the Se-
lective Service Act, and the legisla-
ton is obsolete; our present Army
is approximately as large as the one
raised during the First World War"

Savage Battle Flares
On Coma End Of Japs'
New Guinea FoothoId
Allied Patrols Drive
Wedge to Beach, Splitting
enemy's 20-MiIe Strip
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
AUSTRALIA, Dec. with only
a matter of yards separating the
Japanese and Allied lines in the
jungle, savage fighting famed on
the left flank of the New Guinea
battlefront yesterday.
A spokesman for Gen. Douglas
Macarthur said today the fighting
was close in" and particularly
heavy on the Coma end Of the
20-mile strip of beach which repre-
sents the sole japanese foothold
left In Papua.
Between Coma on the west and
Buna on the east, Allied patrols
already had driven wedge, at
least temporarily, and succeeded in
reaching the beach.
Artillery hammered both sides
yesterday and the Allies called on
heavy mortar fire to destroy some
Japanese machine gun posts in the
Coma area. Reports from New
Guinea said artillery hits destroyed
four barges and started towering
fires among stores around Coma.
Allied flyers actively supported
the ground units, and carrying the
air battle to the japanese with
smashing blows, destroyed eight
Zero fighters in the New Guinea
area while anti-aircraft fire ac-
counted for another over Darwin,
Australia.
In the biggest Of the days sky
conflicts, a dozen American P-40s
snd an equal number of japanese
zeros tangled in dogfights over the
Owen Stanley Mountains and along
the coastal jungle strip where the
ground forces are locked in COM
bat. The American fighters blasted
seven of the foes aircraft out of
the sky. They lost two of their
own planes, but the pilots were
saved.
Another Zero fell the victim of
the guns of Flying Fortress over
Vitiaz Strait, off the coast of New
Guinea between it and New Britain

bagged by Darwin's anti-aircraft
defenses, was one Of four which ap-
peared early in the morning on a
