Finn President
Hopes to Renew
| Ties With II. S.
BY the Associated Press

os tnt hSSOCldIeO Press.
A broadcast from Helsinki re-
ported today that President Risto
Ryti expressed the hope at the final
session of Finland's 1912 Parliament
that friendly relations might be re-
stored between Finland and the
United States.
The broadcast recorded by the
Associated Press said that in the
same speech Ryti declared that last
year Finland's fight with Russia
had been purely defensive, that a
state of virtually stationary war
fare had resulted.
OF the United States, he was
quoted as saying:
Those delicate conditions which
have come from our being forced to
continue our defensive fight against
the Soviet Union, whose ally the
United States now is, and which
have come from the fact that Ger
many and her European allies, at
war with the Soviet Union, are also
at war with the United States, have
unfavorably influenced our relations
with the United States.
Consular relations between our
countries are broken diplo-
matte relations. however, still con-
tinue, and we for our part warmly
hope that our relations with the
United States will again become as
good and full of confidence as they
have always fundamentally been"

Rickenbacker Favors
House Unit on Aviation
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, World
War air ace and airline executive,
went on record today as favoring
establishment of separate House
committee on civilian and CONNER
cial aviation.
A telegram from the famous flyer
giving his position was read to the
House Rules Committee by Repre-
sentative Kleberg, Democrat. of
Texas at a hearing on whether it
would send the Aviation Committee
proposal to the House floor for a
vote.
The Rules Committee Is con-
sidering eight separate bills propos-
ing ablishment of a separate
committee on civilian and CONNER
cial aviation, and has limited its
witnesses to members of Congress.
Now the Interstate Commerce Com
mittee handles aviation legislation.
Capt. Rickenbackers telegram
follows:
1T is my understanding that a
standing committee on aviation in
the House is proposed. In view of
the tremendous influence aviation
will have on Americas future
throughout the war it is essential
now that our leadership study these
problems thoroughly and be pre-
pared at the peace table to demand
an intelligent and fair reward for
our billions spent and to prevent
our birthright from being sold out
from under us by selfish and biased
interests.
In my opinion a standing COM
mittee in the House is essential
from this day on"

about to be undertaken by his
committee into the efficiency
of civil service employees in the
National Radio Forum pro-
gram this evening. The Forum

investigation into the number
of civil service employees, the
reports concerning duplication
of effort, inefflciency and
too heavy payrolls. During
the program this evening Mr..
RamSpeck will introduce Dill
lard B. Lassiter, regional di-
rector of war manpower for
this area, whom he has desig-
mated as chief investigator.

The history Of wars has never

The Russians listed 10000 of the

The Russian noon communique

hinted at encircling tactics being

High Lights of Talks.
Here are the high lights of the
conference which Mr. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Churchill, in a Sunday sum-
mary. agreed was unprecedented and
will affect the course of the war:
/. Military and civil leaders of
Doth nations agreed on a 1943 plan
designed to retain the initiative in
every war theater
2. Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Churchill
perhaps in anticipation Of Axis peace
feelers, agreed that peace can come
only through unconditional sur
render of the three major Axis
partners.
3. Gems. Giraud and De Gaulle
met for the first time under sponsor

Minister to negotiate for an effective
union of their two forces.

A prediction that the shipment
of oil to the East will be in
creased by IS per cent within the
next 80 days was made to the
Senate Oil Committee today by
John J. Pelley, president of the
American Association of Rail-
roads.
The recent average of ITO 900 bar
rels day being brought to the East
coast by the railroads should be
increased to 100000 barrels within
a month from a combination of four
developments, namely:
l. Use of metal drums, carried in
boxcars. estimated to give 10000
more barrels a day.
2. Additional unloading facilities,
$4,000 more barrels.
Tankcars to Be Added.
3. Added tankcars in the Eastern
service, resulting from greater use
Of motor trucks for short hauls,
10000 more barrels.
4. Opening of new pipeline from
Texas to Illinois on February 10,
which will add $4,000 barrels to the
daily shipment from Illinois to the
East.
Those items will bring the daily
average up from 10000 to 87S, 900
barrels" Mr.. Pelley said, "and I'm
sure we can make it 100000"
1t was the most encouraging tes-
timony the committee has obtained
in recent weeks.
The use of drums in boxcars has
started, with 100000 containers
made available by the Army, and
are being routed into New England,
Mr.. Pelley testified.
He said arrangements also have
been made to manufacture 100000
more drums, which would hold about
100000 barrels of oil.
Mr.. Pelley told the committee all
his estimates were conservative.
Robert L. Minckler head of petro-
leum supplies for War Petroleum
Director Ickes, was asked by Chair
man Maloney how he felt about the
situation.
I'm scared to DEATH" he replied.
but with careful, close management
on the East Coast I believe we are
going to avoid hardship and suffer-

seen and unforeseeable bad weather
and unexpected military demands,
we are going to keep the people
