WAR COSTS:
70 Billion in '43

With budget experts estimating
war expenditures at 78 billion dol
lars for the 1943 fiscal year, Amer
leans learned that the cost of the
first year of the war against the
Axis was over 46 billions-or more
than the entire cost of participating
in the First World war Is years ago.
Treasury department statements
disclosed that current war expendi-
lures were running at the rate of six
billion dollars a month, which was
about four times what they were
under the national defense program
before Pearl Harbor.

This new defeat left the Japs

First announcement of the Coma
victory was made by Prime Minister
John Curtin, who gave the news as
he was conducting a review of the
war before the house of representa-
tives in Canberra, Australia. His
announcement was made 16 days
after an Allied headquarters COM
munique had announced the origi-
nal Australian entry into Coma.
The Japs had landed at Coma on

their invasion drive which took them

CANNED FOOD:
Ne1U Restrictions

Americas housewives are finding
less and less use for their can open
ers.
Many canned foodstuffs are elimi-
mated for civilian consumption for
the duration upon new order of the
War Production board. The order
was designed to save large quanti-
ties of tin, steel and rubber for war
purposes. The saving in rubber
would be made through fewer truck
deliveries under the reduced output
program.
Canned foods henceforth eliminat-
ed include apples, applesauce, april
cots, numerous types of berries,
grapefruit segnents, orange juice,
dehydrated vegetables, powdered
skinned milk, bacon and other
meats, fruit for salad, okra, sue
cotash, various fruit juices, white
asparagus, chilli con carne, meat
loaf, vienna sausage, sausage in oil,
frozen and storage cream, various
fats, syrups and sea foods.
After December 81 such commodi-
ties are to be canned for govern
ment use only. However, an order
is being prepared for packing some
foods in glass containers instead of
tin.

3-CENT COIN:
May AUert Shortages

If mint officials have their way
new Scent coins may jingle in your
pockets some day in the not distant
future.
Officials asked authority to make
such coins in case the copper short
age becomes so acute that there
won't be enough pennies. The house
passed legislation authorizing the
new coin and returned it to the SEN
ate for action.
Director of the Mint Nellie Tayloe
Ross has asked the nations school
children to undertake ''help win
the war" campaign by putting idle
coins, especially pennies and Scent
pieces, to work meeting business de-
mands, and thus save many tons of
vital metals.
The treasury hopes the coin round
up will avert possible local shortages
during business peaks, where shifts
in population and wartime payrolls
might otherwise result in unbalanced
distribution of available money
stocks.

And every Italian knows the inme-
date future is black.

And every Italian knows the imme-
diate future is black.
But the same sources also report
that Italy has little chance of break
ing away from German domination
and seeking a separate peace. A
steady stream of German air, anti
aircraft and land forces, all under
Gestapo supervision, is pouring into
Italy. Most of the land forces are
said to have been drawn from the
few reserves in Germany. Russia's
new offensive makes withdrawals
from the Eastern front practically
impossible.
The almost incessant bombing Of
Turin, northern Italian industrial
center, continued undated. The
smoke and fire of one raid was
not dissipated before another wave
of British bombers returned to
spread new destruction. 1t was evil
dent that the Raj did not intend
to give city authorities even time to
restore public utilities.

CASUALTIES:

army, navy, marine corps, coast
guard, merchant marine and Philip

Six hundred and nine of the 1882
wounded have returned to action.
AS the majority of the arny's miss

STRATEGY:
Ndzis First

Much interest throughout the Unit
ed Nations has long conferred on the
broad or general plan for defeating
the Axis. Always there have been
theories advanced which often seem
to have little basis in fact. Others
again have a highly legitimate tone.
One Of the most recent explana-
lions of such strategy, and one Of
more plausible presentations of it
is that advanced by Prime Minister
John Curtin of Australia. In cur
rent statement he declared that
President Roosevelt and Winston
Churchill decided even before the
fall of Singapore February Is, 1942)
that the most necessary job was to
beat Hitler and then take after
Japan.
Thus the campaign in the South
Pacific and on the Australian con-
tinent becomes one of holding"
action He warned his countrymen
that they might have to endure
strong air and sea-borne attack
from the japanese forces based on
the island of Timor. He urged them
to further prepare themselves for
such action.
He pointed out that the closest
cooperation exists between the Aus
tralian government, General Mac
Arthur and Admiral Chester Nimitz,
commander of the U. S. fleet in the
Pacific.

WASHINGTON: Newspaper men
covering this wartime capital now
need about 40 press passes to get
them into the various buildings and
offices around the city. Up until
stricter measures were taken-to
guard against spies, saboteurs or
traitors-one pass, that admitting
the bearer to the White House,
would get newsmen almost any
where they wanted to go.
NEW ORLEANS: Andrew J. Hig-
gins, shipbuilder extraordinary, is
definitely going to build 1900 cargo
planes for the U. S. army. Contract
for this number of aircraft was
signed some time ago and the planes
are to be built largely of non-critical
metals.
ALGIERS: u. S. doughboys in
Africa are now getting weekly edi-
ton of their own newspaper, the
Stars and Stripes. This North Afri
can edition is the product of COM
bined efforts of the London staff of
the Stars and Stripes in Britain and
the staff of Yank, army magazine.
WASHINGTON: A bill to grant
flat pay increases Of Is to 20 per
cent to federal workers in lower sal
airy brackets was pigeonholed by the
senate civil service committee. The
committee agreed to support a
measure allowing time and half
overtime pay for work beyond 40
hours a week. The sidetracked
measure would have provided in
creases of 20 per cent on all sal
aries up to $2,100 and IS per cent
on higher salaries with a proviso
that on salary above $4,000 the IS
per cent would apply only to the
first $4,000.
