WASHINGTON. - Election re-
turns this week indicate the Re-
publican current has such strength
as tc challenge the ability of the
Administration to hold either house
of Congress next year.
Republicans are almost certain
to take the House of Representa-
tives. Already they are within IA
seats of the Democrats.
Hitherto tie Senate has been con-
sidered beyond reach of the Re-
publlcans. Seats of 81 Democrats
must be fill..d next year. Judging
by the way the Republican tide is
running now. dozen of those seats
are In debataeie states. A change
of 10 seats would give the Repub-
licans control. 1t could happen.
the Democ1 attic Administration
is living now on borrowed time.
American political control h s
moved in cycles each lasting
through several elections. One slow
swing of the long pendulum began
in 1923 when Herbert Hoover was
elected. The Republicans had 80
governors then. By 1884 they had
lest all except eight of them. Today
they are back up to "a, and one
more has just been elected in New

divided in the remaining two.
Thus the Republicans have re-

country, except in the South which
is a special political realm. They

Most political writer's. and most
politicians speaking off-the-record

only Democrat who would have q
chance next year. He might be
placed above the political battle
because of his personal war pres

N.Y.MiIkmen Will Confer

New York, Aug. 6-(UP) Milk dealers and producers, warned by Administrator Charles J. Blanford of the New York marketing area that "a shortage of fluid milk is now in prospect for November" be- gan series of conferences with gov- ernment officials today.
 Blanford said the purpose of the conferences for representatives from New York, Connecticut, Massachu- setts, Vermont, Pennsylvania and New Jersey was to give the War Food Administration data "so that program can be formulated to control any chaotic situations that could arise in November"
 "A shortage of fluid milk is now in prospect for November. not be- cause the milksl1ed will fail to pro- duce enough milk to supply the city (New York) but because the de- mands from other markets and for other uses could deprive the city of its normal intake" Blanford said.
 It was reported plans are being made for equitable distribution of milk from the New York milkshed among various markets, including New York consumers, manufactur- CTS of milk products and New Eng land and southern markets.
 Federal ofncials met today with producers and will confer with deal- CTS and distributors tonight. Agri- cultural department representatives of the six states in the milkshed will meet with federal agents tomor- row.

It was tied up rather boringly, with maternal solicitude, wearing rub bers. and people with stomach trouble" who could not have fun" The ultimate in good food con- sisted of charred. barbecued steak, tossed salad, and a rich dessert. LOOKS ENHANCE TASTE
 Many of us would today eye a good steak with deep respect amounting to awe, if it were avail able-but we have also had our eyes opened to good many as- poets of nutrition and food that we had overlooked before in our era of plenty. First of all, there is nothing like little privation to make one discover that food is one of life's major pleasures as well as necessities, and hence of serious interest. Second, it has be- come fascinating to observe the correlation between good diet and good. attractive food, as we are learning about both in the science of nutrition.
 The Red Cross, the OCD, the OPA, with other less publiciZed agencies, have done a splendid job in acquainting every housewife with the excellent sources of food not common in our pre-war diet-es- pecially such protein bearers as soybeans; the importance of vita mins in raw and cooked fruits and vegetables: and the relative un- importance of carbohydrates and fats.
 The more observant students in these classes have found further that the imagination, allied to taste and color -sensitivity, is an invalu- able aid in planning good, sound meals The meal that contains a balanced color scheme time and again is a meal with balanced food values. Adventures in taste, such as experiments with odd herbal seasonings, can add zest to the most monotonous diet, planned to circumvent shortages.

 Flame throwers were not used in the first three weeks of the New Georgia campaign. The American invasion forces depended upon ar- tillery and dive bombers and. in closing operations, upon light tanks.
 But these Japanese pillboxes are tough. They withstand anything but direct hit, and there are places where it is not feasible to use tanks. That's where It. James E. Olds, Des Moines, Ia., went to work.
 Pillboxes Hidden
 Sometimes we didn't know the exact location of the pillboxes," Olds said. "T'he infantry would guide us to their approximate location. It was rather nerve -wracking trying to decide which bush hid the Nips. Sometimes the Nips would answer this question by opening up with their machine guns. Then we lost no time in scorching them"
 Protected only by the fire of rifle men, the flame throwers, trained by and responsible to Olds, work on each pillbox separately. Usually two men are assigned to each fortifica- ton, approaching 1t from divergent angles.
 Almost always they are under fire when they open the nozzles and pour two streams of fire and fumes into the pillbox apertures. In a matter of seconds, the Japanese If they are still alive-tumble from the pillboxes in a hurry, screaming and yelling.
 T have seen the bodies of several Japanese who evidently were killed in this fashion. Some were hardly scorched.
 Our flame tfroWers are credited with the destruction of 30 pillboxes in five days. Their use in this battle for Munda was the most extensive in jungle warfare and the South Pacific area so far.
 Olds. in addition to leading his specially trained crew, instructs in- fantrymen in the basic technique of flame throwing so there will always be an ample supply of "firebirds" when the going gets tough.
