Clement, Marine Hero

Permanent Colonel
Was Ordered Out
Of Islands Night
Botoon Collapsed

President Roosevelt today nomi-
mated temporary Col. William +.
Clement, hero Of Marine activ-
tiles in the Philippines, to be full
colonel in the Marine Corps.
Col. Clement, now on duty at the
Marine Barracks in Washington,
was in command of forces that
were fighting the fires at Cavite
when the situation there became
hopeless. During the battle of
Bataan, he was liaison officer be-
tween the Army and the Navy
forces and divided his time between
Bataan and Corregidor, making fire.
quent trips to the battle area. He
was ordered out the night Bataan
fell, and was taken to Australia
from where he later returned to the
United States.
Known as the man who was on
staff duty" Col. Clement received
the announcement of the Pearl Har-
Dor bombing and graphically notified
Admiral Hart in the now famous
message, well, it's here"
He also reported after he returned
that the marines on Bataan in
their desperation "ate everything but
the colonel's horse"
Col. Clement returned to Wash
ington on April IS and on July II
was given the Navy Cross In formal
ceremonies at the Marine Barracks.
The citation said his activities had
contributed very materially to this
campaign.

New Auto Speed Regulation
Soon 10 Be on Market

BY the Associated Press.
AKRON, Ohio, Oct. ia new,
low-cost speed regulator which
easily can be attached to any car
will soon be placed on the market,
the Frestone Tire g. Rubber Co.
announced today.
The announcement said:
Heretofore car operators have
found speed governors too expen-
sive and driving with them difficult
because Of limited power in emer-
gency situations. On open road
driving without automatic speed
control 1t has also been difficult to
keep speeds below a specified limit
without constant attention being
focused on the speedometer. One
of the new regulators Firestone has
been developing will remove these
objections and serve to keep the
patriotic driver within the desired
35-mile limit"

McGehee 10 Support
Experience Rating 10
Cut Payroll Taxes
Hopes to Have Bill
Before Full Committee
In Next Few Doys

Chairman McGehee of the
House District Committees Ju-
dietary Subcommittee, to which
legislation to amend Washing
tons Unemployment Compensa-
tion Act was referred, announced
this afternoon that he would
support "the experience rating
plan Of lowering owners payroll
taxes" and he hoped to have a
bill reported to the full commit
tee in the next few days.
Mr.. McGehee has introduced as a
proposed substitute for an earlier
measure bearing his name, a bill
carrying into effect next year q
system under which employers
would be taxed according to the
Steadiness Of their payrolls.
At the same time, Chairman Ran
dolph reported to the House the
District Committees approval OF
another bill extending on July l,
1943, to July l, 1914, the date on
which merit rating provision of
the existing law would go into ef-
feet. ..
$4,000, 900 Reserve Enough.
Under the system provided in the
present act tax rates for employers
would range between and lh per
cent. The payroll tax today Is 81
per cent. Under the new McGehee
bill, the rate would be scaled from
2.7 per cent to OIL per cent, depend
Ing on how many employees each
employer had dismissed for business
reasons during given period.
Representative Randolph, In his
report to the House, pointed out
that the District Unemployment
Compensation Board had to, its
credit in the United States Treasury
a job insurance fund of more than
$30,OO0,000. The board, he said, feels
that a reserve Of 10000 900 would
be sufficient to protect the solvency
OF the fund" He also declared it
unfair for some employers to pay
above ~ per cent, perhaps as
