sunk in the Pacific. In addition
American submarines have probably
sunk e ships and damaged AZ more.
SIXTEEN LISTED
The l6 Japanese ships were list

pears likely that the Senate
will vote down or postpone
action upon pending legisla-
ton to prohibit the drafting
Of fathers. However, from,
Senator Byrd, Of Virginia,
and Congressman Dirksen, Of
Illinois, come strong demands
that before the drafting Of
fathers begins the Admins
tration heads first check the
huge number Of eligible males
on the Government payroll in
civilian positions to ascertain
Just how many of those indi-
viduals can be spared for mill
tary service. The claim is
fcade that in the War and
avy Departments alone
there are more than 1.,3OO, 900
male civilian employees, and
that, with more than 3,OOO,-
900 civilian employees now on
the Federal payroll, it should
be possible to obtain from
three hundred to five hundred
thousand eligible men for
military service, and that
their separation from the pub
lie payroll would in no way
injure the public veal, but
might in turn actually bring
relief to the already over

there is little likelihood that

GAS:
Planes Fill Up

Gasoline for airplanes, ships,
tanks, trucks and other vehicles of
the armed forces will consume 30.6
per cent of total production east of
the Rocky mountains for the rest of
this year and approximately 40 per
cent by 1915.
Airplane consumption of gas is
enormous, heavy bombers eating up
a weight of fuel equal to the weight
of its engines for each two hours
aloft. Flying Fortresses average
more than one gallon to a mile. In
the Tunisian campaign, LOO, 900 gal
Ions of gas were burned daily in the
planes in Maj. Gen. James Doolittle's
command.
Civilian allotment in the 17-state
East-coast area approximates 49,
776,000 gallons Of gas daily. When
1926 refneries in the U. S. begin pro-
ducing 100-octane gas for military
planes, their capacity will be in ex-
cess of the East-coast areas daily
quota. Many are in operation, while
others are being rushed to compile
ton.

Peace and the S,vord

Assault Of Hitler's European for
tress and policies for dealing with
re-occupied countries-upon these
momentous questions turned the
sixth conference between President
Roosevelt and Prime Minister Chur-
chill in Quebec.
Formulating the military grand
strategy were approximately $50
army and navy officials from the
II. S. Great Britain and Canada.
Over their maps they planned, first,
the invasion of Europe, then, the
conquest of Japan.
Joining Roosevelt and Churchill
were their foreign secretaries, Cor
dell Hull and Anthony Eden. With
them, the two Allied leaders dis
cussed the measures to be taken in
restoring order in re-occupied ma
tions, and the policies to be pursued
to meet Russia's territorial claims
and demand for participation in the
rehabilitation of Europe.

LEND LEASE:
Record Shipments

Americas lend-lease exports dur

normal U. S. exports for a full year
during the 10-year period from 1929

In round figures, lend-lease ship
ments amounted to slightly less than
four billion dollars. Other exports
of IN billion dollars for which
America received payment, brought
total shipments to nearly 5h billion
dollars.

men nosed their craft for Weewak,
New Guinea. Raiding that Jap air
and supply base the day before, they
had surprised the enemy and shot
up 100 planes parked wing-to-wing
on the ground.
AS they returned, 30 Jap inter-
ceptor planes zoomed up. But the
American air armada moved its
way through the attackers, knocking
out %. Then sweeping low over the
airfield, the Yanks bombed and cam
nonaded the planes and hangers that
had been spared. OF the total Of 225
enemy craft that had been sent to
Weewak to re-enforce the Japs on
the Australian front, 215 were de-
molished.
Meanwhile, American warships
lurking in the Solomons, pounced on
a Jap convoy moving supplies to
its beleaguered forces. Broadsides
struck three enemy destroyers, sink
ing one. Most of the barges in the
convoy were shot up in splinters.

WORK STOPPACE:
Strikers, Plants Hit

Cancellation of draft deferments
and suspension of a strikers privi-
lege for other employment were au-
thorized by President Roosevelt for
refusal to comply with orders issued
by the War Labor board for settle
ment of industrial disputes.
Mr.. Roosevelt also recommended
that war contracts, priorities, fuel
or transportation be withheld from
companies failing to observe the
WLB directives.
~ Other penalties for noncompliance
authorized by Mr.. Roosevelt include
government seizure of plants in ex-
treme cases, and Withholding of dues
and cancellation of other union bene-
fits until conformance with the WLB
orders.
Office of Economic Sterilization
Director Fred Vinson was charged
with imposition of the penalties. OF
1000 cases settled by WLB, there
have been only seven instances Of
noncompliance.
Miners on IrIGt
Thirty miners who appealed for
dismissal of indictments against
them for conspiring to conduct a
strike in government held pits on
the grounds that the Smith-C onnally
anti-strike law was unconstitutional,
were denied their motion and or
dered to trial by Federal Judge F.
P. Schoonmaker in Pittsburgh.
Judge Shoemaker answered the
miners contentious that the law vio-
lated the constitutional provisions
for freedom of speech and against
involuntary servitude, by declaring
that the governments war powers
were unlimited. m sE
! To the miners charge that the
law would prevent them from dis
cussing working conditions in any
plant, the government attorney con-
tended the crime of sedition was al
most always committed by the ut
terance Of words alone. But that
did not prevent punishment for such
speech, he said. ~ 1u4a
