House FEC Inquiry
To Continue Despite
Congressional Recess,

Despite the congressional recess
the special House committee inves-
tigating the Federal Communica-
lions Commission will take no holi-
day, Chairman Cox announced to-
day In scheduling series of public
hearings beginning next week.
I'VE are just getting into the body
Of the inquiry" he said. I'VE have
reached point where we are pre-
pared to offer evidence. And We
can't stop now"
The initial hearing will star!
Monday. Mr.. Cox declined to re-
veal the names of the witnesses.
The only other special House
group which has planned to f,nc-
ton during the recess is the Dies
Committee. which has planned to
start a public inquiry about August
/ into recent racial disturbances,
especially the riots in Detroit.
Published reports that there was
a possibility that contempt pro-
ceedings might be instituted against
Chairman James L. Fly of the FEC
by the Cox Committee were brushed
aside by the chairman.
'All the committee wants are the
facts" declared Mr. Cox. THE
committee has called on the COM
mission for the facts and hopes to
get them. The committee doesn't
want to smear anybody
Reports of possible contempt pro-
ceedings against Mr.. Fly were the
outgrowth of his refusal to answer
questions before the committee last
week about a War Communications
Board hearing which cleared Neville
Miller, head OF the National Asso-
citation of Broadcasters. of a COM
plant that he broke the confidence
of a WEB committee on which he
served.

New Draft Legislation
Will Get Extensive
Hearings in Fall
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
New draft legislation, including a
proposal to require all adult mer
and women to register for service
in the war effort, will be the subject
of extensive hearings by the House
Military Affairs Committee when the
congressional recess ends in Sep
TENDER.
BY that time, Chairman May said
today. the committee hopes to have
available more data bearing on the
prospect Of inducing fathers.
whether we shall expedite legis-
lation, already passed by the Senate,
to boost the Government payments
to dependents of drafted men will
depend in large measure on the
outlook two months from now" Mr.
May said.
Fathers Induction Uncertain.
The chairman said he shared a
general belief among committee
members that the induction of
fathers would be put off for some
time, perhaps indefinitely. In that
event. he explained, the need for
boosting Federal payments already
provided would be lessened.
However, he added, should the
outlook in September indicate the
early induction of fathers, additional
financial provisions for them would
have to be made speedily by Con-
gress.
Also on the committees docket
for early consideration is the Austin
Wadsworth national service bill
under which all men and women
would be required to register for
assignment to services where there
was need for them-in the armed
forces, industry or agriculture.
Fresh interest was aroused in the
proposal after Representative Wads-
worth. Republican. New York, CO.
author of the Selective Service Act,
visited the White House recently.
Roosevelt Studies Proposal.
While unable to commit the
President to the service bill, Mr..
Wadsworth said, he left the White
House with the feeling that it was
being given serious consideration by
Mr.. Roosevelt.
The Military Affairs Committee
has held sporadic hearings on the
Austin Wadsworth proposal, but has
never gone on record for or against
it. 1t was sidetracked by the COM
mittee several months ago after Paul
v. McNutt. War Manpower Commits
sion chairman, indicated he did not
believe it necessary at this time.
Backed by the American Legion
and other groups, the Aus tin Wads-
worth bill has drawn the fire of
many organizations, including reli-
gious groups, who have commended it
would break up homes encourage
RECOMMENDATION of the American
people and violate the constitutional
ban against involuntary service.

SAYS 1T WON'T TAKE LONG

Brig. Cen Claire L. Chennault, who
has been in command of American flyers
operating in China, reports that the Japan
ese air force has chit its peak and is now on
the down grade
The general ought to know. He has
been in China a long time, in connection
with the Flying Tigers and as our commaii-
der since Pearl Harbor
Gen. Chennault does not share Ambas-
sador Crews fears about war to the last
Jap. He says that when Hitler isscrushed
it won't take long to smash Japan
Not only is this air officer fighting
man but he understands his part IN the great
wars now engaging this nation You do not
hear him asking, via the public prints, for
additional planes, although we are sure he
would like to have them.
Gen. Chennault says, 1T not for me TO
decide global strategy. Tn fight on with
what planes we have until conditions per
nit larger achievements. This is a soldier
~ attitude, expressed by man who has
been exceptionally successful in actual
operations
If the war lasts long enough, you will
hear more about Gen. Chennault.

EXTRA COFFEE AHEAD?

The shipment of 100000 bags of cof-
fee te the United States, in addition to the
current quota of 15.445, 900 bags has been
authorized by the American Coffee
Board.
Officials explain that the action does
not mean any sudden influx of coffee ship
ments into this country, pointing out that
the Board wished to hberalize restrictions
in order to take advantage of shipping OPP
portunities as they developed.
Millions of drinkers will be glad
to believe that additional coffee is coming
int0the United States but very few of them
would ask that ships be allotted to the trans
portation of coffee if they are needed to
transport supplies to our soldiers abroad.
If American soldiers can face enemy
bullets, inveterate coffee-drinkers can
stand the shock of an empty cup occasion

HITTING THE WEAKEST spor

Pick out his weakest spot, strike him
where he is most vulnerable. That is the OBJ
jeet that every man, who goes in tho the ring,
strives to attain against his opponent.
Joe Louis doesn't like to be hit on the
jaw, and every fighter who goes in against
him tries to get sock to the jaw, but the
only one who succeeded in putting it over
in sufficient volume was Max Schmelfng,
and Joe was licked.
What is true in tn e pugilistic ring is
true of every other thing in life that engen-
ders opposition; hit where hitting will do
the most harm
Japans most vulnerable spot is its
shipping, and the United States Navy and
airforce keep on striking at it, Lack of ships
has long since become a serious problem to
the japanese warlords. With their far-flung
empire of captured countries to serve by sea-
they are at their wits end in trying to keep
up the stream of supplies, including weap-
ons of war, that must be kept up or Japan
is lost
Aware of that fact, United States
planes and ships, surface and submarine,
continue to strike hard blows at Japanese
shipping. Tuesday night the Navy announ-
eed that this country's uniersea craft had
sent four more Jap ships to the bottom,
bringing the total of ships sunk since
the beginning of the war to 1877, with %
more probably sunk and SO damaged
That destruction of Jap ships has been
wrought by United States submarines alone.
But that number is only 40 per cent of Jap
ships that have gone to Davy Jones lock-
er. Altogether, through the medium of SUBJ
marines, naval surface craft and airpIanes,
United States forces have sent 316 Japanese
ships to the bottom since the perfidy at
Pearl Harbor.
1t is fearful toll, particularly in view
of the fact that, even before this country
entered the war, the Japs did not have suf-
ficient ships. 1t was their weak spot, and
United States forces have been persistently
and successfully pounding at it since we en-
tered the war. Today the Japs are crippled
in that branch of their military might
Keep pegging away at the weakest
spot. At the rate Jap ships are now going TO
the bottom, the Nipponese gradually will
have to exacuate m of their captured
territory because of their inability to take
care of them from the sea-

JUDGE TAMEs ATTORNEYS

Judge James Algers Fee, of Oregon,
now sitting as Federal Judge in New Jer-
sey, has ruled that attorneys must stay AZ
the counsel table while questioning wit
nesses
This seems to eliminate the "menacing
legal forefinger that has been shaken under
many quaking witnesses nose It also
tends to create more respect for members
of the bar who suffer from the bad man
ners Of some courtroom lawyers.
We commend the Oregon judge and
suggest that all jurists take cognizance of
the rights of witnesses in court. Many OF
them have been insulted and Inundated by
overbearing and bullying attorneys and
much OF the blame for the situation rests up
on judges who sit on the bench and permit
such tactics in their presence.
