Relax CurbS
ON Utilities

Restrictions on public utility
services in Mount Clemens were
eased today with the announce
ment that the War Production
Board has authorized extended
service in al areas in II states
designated as critical war hous-
ing regions.
George HargreaveS, district
manager of the Detroit Edison
company, explained today that
the move shortens the amount OF
time non-rated homes need TO
wait for servicing.
Non-rated homes he said were
homes which we're built without
Federal approval, thus making II
necessary for the home builder
to apply to Washington for a
rating before the public utilities
could service his home. Today's
authorization gives the utility
companies power to deal direct
ly with all requests.

the enemy withdrawing to the
northern end of the 600-mile-

Dispatches from Admiral Will
liam F. Halsey's South Pacific

csc barge traffic under cover of
moonless nights indicated strong
ly that the enemy was trying 10
escape from a precarious II not
hopeless situation.
Kolombangara, with its prize
air base at Villa, had already
been out thanked by American
seizure of New Georgia and Vel
la Lavella Islands on both sides.
The japanese garrison was ap-
parently being removed TO Choi-
seul Island, so miles north of
Kolombangara, and thence to
Bougainville at the tip of the
island chain.
American warplanes, striking
TO thwart the attempted evacu-
alton, sank four japanese barges
loaded with troops and supplies,
while 200 u. S. aircraft pounded
Villa air base on Kolombangara
and Kahili on Bougainville.

ing before a board of at least
five generals. If removed from
the active list after more than
seven years service, the officer
is placed on the retired list.
Colman has had Is years OF
