Planes alone in sufficient numbers
can defend those bases and we will
be able to risk carriers in further

Nimitz's orders to the Navy to
"get in and fight" were not aimed

Breaks Play Big Part.
But even with the best men and
the best equipment, you have to
have the breaks to win in this new

breaks include not only such factors
as having a pretty good idea of what
your enemy intends to do but also
many elements of chance.
These breaks might be such long

War Tool Defendants
Attack Validity Of
Presidential Powers
Demurrer Is Filed to
Indictment Charging
Conspiracy to Five

District Court Justice Bolitha j.
Laws yesterday was asked, in q de-
murrer to an indictment. to declare
unconstitutional the act OF Con-
gress giving President Roosevelt the
power over all materials necessary
for prosecution of the war.
The argument was presented In 4
demurrer to an indictment charg-
ing two dismissed War Production
Board officials and three dealers in
used machine tools with conspiracy
to prevent critically-needed ma
chine tools from being allocated to
war contractors.
Defendants in the case are Robert
B. Rhoads and Ralph L. Glaser,
former chief and assistant chief,
respectively, of the Available Used
Tool Section of the Tools Branch
Of the WPB, and Clarence j.
O'Brien, Frank L. OBrien, jr.. and
Louis E. Emerman. all used tools
dealers. They are accused of enter
ing into a deal by which the tools
were kept from war contractors for
six weeks. Mr.. Rhoads and Mr..
Chaser allegedly got $4,000 each IN
the transaction.
Warren E. Magee, attorney for
the O'Briens, said that the congress
sional act giving the President the
power to allocate materials was an
unconstitutional delegation of au-
thority, even in time of emergency.
Attorney Seymour Heilbroon, rep
resenting Mr.. Glaser. and Attorney
Theodore E. Ryan, arguing for Mr..
Emerman, said the indictment
charged violation of regulations
promulgated by an administrative
body, claiming this was unconsti-
tutional. Administrative bodies do

paid for by the entirety of war
prisoners taken by German soldiers
without regard to such prisoners
nationality" the Berlin radio an
nounced last night.
The controversy over the shackling
of prisoners was thus advanced
another step by the German high
command, which said it felt obliged
mot only to protect the honor of
German soldiers, but also to secure
the humane treatment of German
prisoners in the hands of the
enemy ~
The Berlin announcement said
that if German soldiers were mis-
treated on the Russian front re-
prisals would be taken on Allied
prisoners in German hands, what
ever their nationality.
The lettering of prisoners as a
reprisal was started by the Ger
, mans last week. The Germans said
some 1900 British prisoners in Ger
many were fettered in reprisal for
the binding of German soldiers dur
: ing the Allied Commando raid on
Dieppe August 10. The British then
ordered the same number of Ger
man prisoners fettered.
Prime Minister Churchill an
nounced Tuesday that German pris-
oners in Britain would be unclaimed
if the Germans took the same action
toward British prisoners. Pending
a report from Switzerland, the in
termediary in the dispute, there
has been no further action.

fused to comment on the latest
