prices, the only way in which
such economic juggling can be
achieved is through payment of
subsidies, yet on the subsidy
question there is more yeSSing
and noing than on any other
phase of the price attempted
control program.
Authority for subsidies is in
the Price Control Act, passed by
Congress, yes. The Attorney
General gave an opinion last
August, on canned tomato
juice question, that government
subsidies are legal, yes. Subsid-

Gamers, yes.
But Congress on subsidies
says no" Recently it has writ

use Of Lend-Lease and CCC

3. Food Gamers today are
losing food. throwing il away,
because they can't get labor.
The reason they can't get labor
is that wages in the canning in
dustry have been frozen at a
level SO low they can't compete
with better paying industries.
In some regional War Labor
board offices, approval has been
given to pay higher wage rate.
yes.
To pay these added wages, the
Gamers say there must be an up
in ceiling prices on their prod
ucts to pay for the increased
labor crops. Approval for such
price increases mus: come from
OPA. Yet within OPA there is
yes and no. battle going on
which prevents the making of
any decision on this issue.
VIA ON SIDELINES
One group in OPA says yes, "
give them price increases to COW
er their added costs, but no
more. The other group says
no." price ceilings must be
held at present levels and the in

and stew in their own juice.
War Food Administration sits
on the sidelines in this dispute,
feeling rather desperate about
the situation, wondering how
more food is going to be pro-
duced in the heavy canning sea-

can't be found in the light aspar-

$4,000 Nazis Lost
In Norway Invasion

LONDON, Sept 2-The Germans
lost 5000 men killed or disabled in
their invasion of Norway in 1910,
Rear Admiral Hjalmar Riiser-Lar-
sen, chief of the Norwegian Air
Force, declared today.
At the end Of the campaign, the
admiral said, the Germans de-
manded that the Norwegians pay
pensions to the widows and depend
ents of the Nazi soldiers killed or
wounded i'll the invasion. Norway
promptly agreed.
I am surprised that you accept"
said the German general who trans
nitted the demand.
Not at all replied the Norwegian
official with whom the general was
dealing. Hitler has announced that
you lost only 1,163 killed and
wounded. We can afford to pay
pensions for them"
The Germans, Riiser-Larsen said.
thereupon dropped their demands.
He declared that when Norway
was attacked there was 1924 Nor
wegian ships on the high seas and
Mai Vidkun Quisling, Nazi-ap-
pointed premier, ordered them to
make for Axis ports. Not q single

On Flyers in 'Chutes
b the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
GUADALCANAL, Aug. 80 de
layed) Thanks to 1t. Homer w.
Faucet, 194l National AUU middle
weight wrestling champion from
Indiana, and the gallant crew of
his Liberator bomber the japanese
have paid dearly for firing on Amer
lean flyers dangling helplessly in
parachutes, floating down to sea.
Lit. Faucet and his companions
supplied some of the most dramatic
moments Of the day on the trip
back from todays smashing raid
on Japan's Kahili airdrome on Bou-
gainville, in the Solomons, in which
81 out of 60 defending Zeros were
shot down.
Near Vella Lavella Island one of
the Llberators was hit by pursuing
Zeros. -Four men parachuted from
the stricken bomber
Attacked by 20 Zeros.
Twenty zeros went after the oe-
RGSA1St1A4S 4iSNAos tAlCll ullc OldA1llS.
1t. Faucet, 25, whose home town
Is Hillsboro, Ind, was in a nearby
formation of bombers.
Il checked with the crew first on
the interphone, talking with every
man." 1t Faucet said.
Pilot to turTet gunner: Shall we
go back?'
"Turret gunner to pilot: Let's go
back"
1t was that way in each case.
All we'll knew there was a strong
probability we would never come
back" 1t. Faucet continued.
Vowed to Down All They Could.
When We turned back, one man
in a chute was hanging limp after
a Zero strafed him, Our gunner
drove off another Zero trying the
same dirty trick. Then 20 Zeros
started working on us at 1000 feet.
We went down to 200 feet and drop
ped life raft to the men who had
jumped from the other bomber. The
Zeros made co-ordinated attack,
using as many as six coming at us
at the same time.
I'VE would have been shot down
If it hadn't been that our gunners
were good marksmen. We half fig
ured We didn't have chance, so
we vowed to get all the enemy we
could before they got u.s.
When we got home there were
more than 80 bullet holes and several
cannon holes in the fuselage."
But 1t. Faucets Liberator had
bagged seven out of the 20 para
chute e-attacking Zeros.
