SICILY:
Last Stand

Forty thousand Axis troops were
all that were left to stand between
the Allies and complete conquest Of
Sicily as the last phase of the battle
developed. OF the 10000, it was
estimated that $4,000 were German
and the rest Italian.
Although heavily outnumbered by
the 10 Allied divisions reported in
action, the Axis relied on strong
natural entertainments hewed into
the rugged mountains to hold up the
British-American drive. The ad-
vance against these positions was
difficult, with the infantry slowly
picking its way up the craggy but
barren slopes in the face of stiff
mortar and machine gun nests
which had held their ground even
after fierce Allied artillery barrage.
After being stalled for two weeks
in front of Catania, the British 9th
army spilled into the city after over
coming strong Axis positions set up
along the several rivers winding
through the country and in the tall
fields Of grain. Aided by the navy's

for the time spent in travelling I'm
foreground from the mines entrance
to the diggings. Lewis told the WLB
that American coal miners are the
only miners in any civilized country
who receive no compensation for un-
derground travel.
The agreement also calls for an
eight instead of a seven hour day
and a six-day work week, which,
with the underground travel pay,
would increase miners daily checks
by So. Stating that 1882 miners
died from risks in the pits last year
and $4,000 were seriously injured,
Lewis said the extra working hours
would increase the mems exposure
to such accidents. Furthermore, he
declared, the miners received just
$37 more a year than the lowest
classification Of government clerical
workers.

GAS
Use Tasteful

Production of gasoline and other
petroleum derivatives can be in.
creased by recovering oil now left
in wells, and by processing natural
gas, oil sands and shales, DR.. Gustav
Egloff, renowned scientist, told q
joint congressional committee. n
He urged governmental aid in de-
veloping synthetic gasoline methods,
but added that he did not think that
making gasoline from coal was ad-
visable Immediately. He said that
eight million men would be needed
to manufacture years supply.
American use of natural gas is
wasteful, continued DR.. Egloff, Last
year an amount of gas was con-
sumed that would have yielded 40
billion gallons of gasoline, or IA
billion more gallons than were actu-
ally used, he said. The nation has
a known supply of natural gas suf-
ficient to last Sc years at the present
rate of consumption, according to
DR.. Egloff.
Poor extraction methods leave
from 70 to 30 per cent of petroleum
in the ground, the doctor estimates.
Better pumping would increase pro-
duction.

October, 1941. Orel stood in ruin as
the Russians moved in, with Nazi
rear-guards tackling the Reds in
hand-to-hand fighting in delaying ac-
ton in the streets of the city. All
military and industrial installations
were stripped, and like Stalingrad,
rubble from the SCARED and bat

In taking Orel, the Reds threw
the full weight of their artillery,
planes, tanks and infantry into the
battle. Slowly, they ground down
German resistance on the north,
south and east sides of the city.
Overpowered, the Nazis resisted
stubbornly, but as the Russian army
surged to the suburbs, the German
troops were seen to be streaming
out Of the city westward.

SOUTHWEST PACIFIC:
At Munda

ZAG AVA AsGGGU
The American attack on Munda
in the Solomons stands out as
classic Of military strategy.
In the final stages Of the battle
against fanatical enemy resisting
to the death, American forces drew
a tight moose around the Japs, with
one column moving to the west Of
the defenders line while two other
columns hammered in from two ends
on the east.
When American planes failed to
sufficiently reduce the Japs' hidden
pill-boxes hewed in the jungle brush,
13-ton tanks were called into the
fray, and these cracked through the
dense foliage to advance on the en-
eny's well-concealed positions and
draw their fire. Their gun-fire guild
ed the tanks to their entertainments
and these were quickly subdued
with point-blank barrages.
With strong Jap points overrun on
the east. American warships and
airplanes then moved in along the
coast to the west and laid down a
thunderous volley into the enemy's
positions. AS this combined barrage
shook up the Japs in their pillboxes
and caves, American troops picked
their way northward, to ring the en-
envy from the west.

Production Lays

Production of ornaments and 9th
er goods needed by the army is lag
ging seriously, Lieut.. Gen. BrehoA
B. Somervell, chief of army supply
services, warned. He said that 300
million dollars worth of supplies
have not been delivered according
to schedule in the last three months.
Output Of factories has been going
down steadily, he continued, with
July figures decidedly worse" than
those of June.
At the same time the treasury re-
ported that actual war spending dur
ing July was half a billion dollars
less than in June, this being the
first month in which war costs have
S turned downward. Commentators
say this decline is another indica-
ton of lower production, rather than
smaller needs.
Urging all contractors to fulfill
their contracts, General Somervel
said: eff as a manufacturer, you
are scheduled to produce a certain
quantity of war material by spe-
cific date, you have undertaken
specific military obligation"
Supplies and materials must De

rate to permit the full exploitation

FARM LAND:
Value Rising

With the value of all farm land
now above World War I level, gov
eminent officials were becoming
anxious over the possibility of an
other realty boom which would col
lapse with a disastrous drop in
prices as in the twenties.
Between March and July of this
year, farm real estate rose another
3 per cent. The increase occurred
throughout all of the geographical
regions and in two-thirds of the
states. In Indiana, farm property
sold 40 per cent above the 1859
average.
With commodity prices up one
fourth within the last IL months and
farm income for 1943 expected to
exceed 1925 record levels, farmers
were said to be active buyers in the
market. What with high commodity
prices prevailing, spectators also
were supposed to be purchasing
property for resale.
