174-Lb. Butter Quota
Per Person Expected
In 1943 Rationing
Food Fat Allotment
Seen at IS Per Cent
Under Demund
BY the Associated Press.

BY the ASsocls sted Press.
Civilian rationing Of food fats
and oils, including butter, mar
gerine and shortcomings. at Is per
cent below the expected demand
was foreseen today by the Bu-
reau OF Agricultural Economics
as the result of increasing needs
for the military and lease lend.
Under rationing, the bureau esti-
mated the supply of fats and oils
at 48 pounds per person next year,
against an average per capita con-
sumption of 81 pounds in the 1904
period and an anticipated de-
Notwithstanding from additional
buying power-of ST. pounds in
1943.
On that basis, the bureau said
about IT'S pounds of butter and
margarine per person will be avail
able to meet an expected demand
Of 205 pounds. The demand for
shortening and lard was fixed at
26.2 pounds and the supply at %
pounds. Supplies of fats in other
food products, such as bread, cake
and canned soups, were calculated
at IT pounds per person, against a
demand of 10.4 pounds.
Coffee and sugar already are ra-
toned, and meats and cheese soon
will be. Secretary of Agriculture
Wickard previously had said but
ter would be added as soon as the
necessary plans could be made.
The bureau estimated the supply
OF fats and oils in 1943 would be
l4500, 900 900 pounds, about 800 0OO,-
600 pounds under the expected de-
mands from the military, lease lend
and civilians. The shortage was
attributed to the curtailment of
imports from the Western Pacific
and to the exceptional demands.

E, the Associated Press.
LONDON, Dec. 23.-Capt. Grant
Singer. who learned about recon-
naissance as master of the fox
founds in West England, was
credited posthumously today with
the capture of the German Gen.
Ritter Won Thoma soon after the
British 9th Armys decisive break
through from Ell Alamein, Egypt,
into the Libyan desert.
Capt. Singer, a member of the
Royal Hussars. was killed in action
the day after the general was taken
as the result of Capt Singers daring
exploits as tank spotter in a Brit
ish counterpart of an American jeep.
Stayed Ahead Of Tanks.
The War, ONCE in detailing his
feat declared that from the start
OF the 9th Armys advance he had
been far out ahead of the British
tanks in little scout car looking for
the enemy.
His job was to pick out tank tar
gets and radio their position back to
the British.
There came the day when Capt.
Singer sighted two enemy tanks in
front of him but with no British
tanks nearby to engage them. A
shell from one tank went through
his car before Capt. Singer finally
located British tank commanded
by 1t. S. B. Ferguson.
when Singers little car came up
to us, he jumped on the back of my
tank and said he had a couple of
targets for u.s." 1t. Ferguson said.
He pointed out the tanks some dis
tance ahead Our second shot went
home and the crew jumped from one
burning tank into a slit trench.
"As we drew up, Singer jumped
of and rounded up the crew. Among
them was Gen. Won Thoma, who was
slightly wounded in the leg.
After he had been captured, the
general presented Singer his field
glasses Singer took his address and
promised to return them after the
war"
Won Thoma then was taken to
Gen. Sir Bernard L. Montgomery.
They dined together and refought
the opening phases of the desert
battle at an after dinner tactical
clinic, sketching their strategical
moves on the oilcloth table cover.
Gen. Won Thoma later was brought
to England.

18 Jap Worships Sunk or Hit
BY Ex-Novy Stars Squadron
Bullet Lou Kirn
Leads Flying Unit;
D. G. Man Member
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
In five weeks of operations from
Guadalcanal Airfield. single Navy
dive bomber squadron attacked SO
Japanese warships and 6 transports,
sinking or damaging Is of them.
The squadron. which has now been
removed from the island, was COM
manded by 1t. Comdr. l.. J. Kirn,
34-year-old former Annapolis foot
ball star known to sport fans as
Bullet Lou" OF the 81 pilots, only
2 are missing. Four rear gunners
also are listed as missing.
A Navy statement on the squad
ron's accomplishments said yester-
day that it joined the forces on
Guadalcanal in the early fall, going
in from the deck of an aircraft
carrier which had been at sea nearly
two months.
One of the squadron's first as
signments was an attack on a Jap
aneSe naval force which included
the carrier Ryuzio. 1t damaged the
carrier so badly that it is officially
listed as possibly sunk.
Found Five Lost Pilots.
Some of the attacks against enemy
ships were made at night. In ad-
dition to that hazardous type of
operation, units of the squadron
also engaged in fighting off enemy
planes, in straffing and bombing
enemy land bases, in scouting and in
rescue missions.
1t is credited with destroying two
japanese float biplanes and one
land-besed Zero and with finding
five lost pilots from other American
units.
Two major attacks and eight
forays by squadron units were con-
Quoted against enemy positions at
Rekata Bay on Santa Isabel and
other raids were made against Viru
Harbor on New Georgia Island,
against Moe Island in the Russells
and against San Jorge Island of
Santa Isabel Other bombing mis-
sions had enemy positions on Quad
alcanal as their objectives.
Recounting the missions against
enemy ships, the Navy said that
the full force of the squadron never
took part in any single attack.
Sometimes a single one of the Doug
las Dauntless dive bombers which
they operated would scream down
from the skies against the anti
aircraft from Jap warship, press
ing home its attack alone.
IS Destroyers Attacked.
In all, rs destroyers were attacked
and six heavy and seven light
cruisers felt the fury of the squad
ron's blows. Damage inflicted, all
of which had been taken into ac-
count in comnuniques issued pre-
viously, was described as heavy"
A destroyer and a. transport were
certainly sunk, four destroyers were
probably sunk and two destroyers,
five heavy cruisers and five light
cruisers were definitely damaged.
Other damage was undoubtedly
suffered by the enemy, but the
specific extent could not be de-
termlned due to weather or dark
ness" the Navy said.
The squadron worked under the
adverse conditions prevailing at
Guadalcanal throughout the five
week period. Frequently Jap naval
forces shelled Henderson Field
heavily; enemy air raids were regu-
lar occurrences; the thunder of
nearby night battles shattered the
pilots sleep. Debilitating tropical
illnesses, including dysentery, at
tackled members of the squadron"
