thing to get Congress back in tune
with the administration.
CONGRESS ALL RIGHT
Recalling his years of service in
both the House and Senate, Byrnes
said, Il know better than to try to
get Congress in line. Congress is
all right. But the weather is hot
Byrnes then explained that what
with the hot weather and having
worked hard for six months, Con-
gress was like the executive branch
of the government and, for that
matter. like the press.
'They may seem to have disagree
ments," he said, but it all counts
out"
Byrnes also disclosed that Pres
ident Roosevelt had appointed the
new food administrator. Marvin
Jones. as a member of the war
mobilization committee and the
War Production Board.
Chester C. Davis, former food
administrator, did not hold posts on
the OWN committee or the WPB.
In resigning, Davis told the Presi-
dent he had not been able to reach
the point of -contral control of the
government food policies.
WOULDN'T FORECAST
Byrnes was reluctant to forecast
the effect of recent congressional
action on the administrations food
subsidy and price rollback program
on grounds that congressional pol
icy was yet to be finally determined.
Jones, in his brief statement yes
terday on the Wallace charges, said
that a more detailed statement
would be issued later. His office
reported today that nothing further
had been done about that.
Wigglesworth was the first Re-
publican to discuss the Wallace
Jones row on the House floor.
"It is unthinkable." he said. that
these two top officials of the Roose-
welt administration are unable to
compose their AIS in noes and CO.
operate in the a.oprt. 1t is fur
ther evidence of the dissension and
lack of coordination on the home
front"
Others here were judging the cur
rent series of disputes not only as
hampering the war effort but jeop-
ardizing the prospect of the elec-
ton of a Democratic presidential
candidate next year, regardless OF
President Roosevelt's decision about
a fourth term.
Congressional Democrats, mean
time, were making no move toward
an investigation. They hold all the
chairmanships and would
be in a position to further or re-
tard an inc uiry.

Moratorium for
Car Stamps Asked

WASHINGTON, June 80. (UP)-
The American Automobile associa-
ton urged Congress to declare a
slX-month moratorium on the pay
as-you-can't go' federal auto use
tax as motorists were warned that
this is the last day to obtain their
SIS windshield sticker.
AAA President Thomas P. Henry
said reports. particularly from the
Atlantic seaboard, show that motor
lists bitterly oppose paying a tax on
use of their cars at a time which
such use, under government regu-
lation, is almost at the vanishing
point He asked Congress to per-
NIT motorists to forego the payment
for the remainder of the year.

island.
CONTINUE STRATEGY
The Rendova operation also was
in continuation of the apparent
American strategy to seize bases
close to the outer rim of Japan's
defense perimeter.
On April %, the navy announced
the occupation OF Funafuti island
in the Ellice group, within easy
bomber range Of the Japanese-held
Gilbert islands.
Attu, japanese base in the
Aleutians, was retaken by U. S.
troops early in June after nearly
three weeks of bitter battling
Rendova, which lies just south
ward of the western end of New
Georgia island, is an island about
90 miles long 1t is entirely noun

Banyetta Point, western extremity
of the island, has black sand
beach which is steep and around
WiiiIii lltistl Cttl oWCCp obtOilS
ly.
At the northern point of the is
land, the coast is fronted by
barrier reef at a maximum distance
of 2la miles, through which there
are about six deep passages. On
the northern part of the reefs, are
several small islands. The lagoon
within is shallow and is encum-
oered with several reefs.
The sharp acceleration of air
attacks on japanese bases in the
Solomons this month foreshadoWed
some such move as that on Rendova.
Fer example, Munda was bombed
nine times, Kahili the same number
and Villa was hit six times. All told,
36 air attacks were made on nine
japanese bases In the area and
several other attacks made on ship
ping in the Japanese held zone.
So far this month, at least SO
American air attacks have been
made on nine Japanese bases in the
central and northwestern Solomons
and several American forays have
been made against enemy shipping
and Warship concentrations.

SAN FRANCISCO. June 80. CUP)
California, its populocs areas
over crowded with war workers. is
facing what may become its most
serious fresh meat crisis, and Moth
ing short of federal action will re-
lieve the condition, a United Press
survey indicated today.
Packers generally held little hope

that tomorrow's now quotas will
permit restocking of meat shelves.
Some believed outlawing of the sub
sidy and price rollback regulations
would ease the crisis. but not imme-
diately.
A spokesman for the American
Packers Institute in San Francis
co was typical of those who believ-
ed the proposed legislation could
provide no immediate relief.
CAN'T GET WORSE
We've reached the point beyond
which things can't get any worse,
he said. Things are in mess
and I mean mess. We're watching
and waiting for this new bill, but
we're not hopeful of solution i'm

An official of the California Meat
company said beef is very scarce"
Il hear all the packers want to
retire" he added. Our business is
mostly local now. They've just
about quit killing"
In Los Angeles, InomaS WalSu,
managing director of the Associat-
ed Meat Jobbers, described the
shortage in Southern California as
chaotic" and urged federal assist
ance.
Scores nf butchers are getting
no deliveries at all" Walsh said.
Michael I. Nesson. attorney for
the Los Angeles Meat Dealers, as
sociation, predicted that at least so
per cent of Los Angeles meat mar
kets would be forced to close.
Ben H. Compton, director OF the
Meat Packers, Inc, Los Angeles,
predicted a slight in crease in beef
supplies when the new quota goes
into effect.
