Ten Cities Face
SEWAGE Suits

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 13. CUP)-
Attorney General Robert w. Kenny
today filed suit against the city of
Los Angeles and nine other NUM-
cipalities, charging they have il
legally operated sewage disposal
system without a health permit
since May 18, 1912.
Kenny's 31-page complaint barnd-
ed the Hyperion disposal plant near
Ell Segundo as a grave public
nuisance and health menace" and
warned continued operation in it's
present dilapidated state might
cause serious epidemicS in the Los
Angeles area.
Other cities named in the COM
plant were Alhambra, Beverly Hills,
Burbank, Culver City, Ell Segundo,
Glendale, Santa Monica, South
Pasadena, and Vernon. The mayors
executive officers and city council
men of all 10 municipalities were
also named.
The suit named 141 defendants in
all and asked they be fined $1,000
each for every day the plant OPP
Grated without a permit.
This assessment would total ap-
proximately $50, 10000 for opera
tionS since May, 1912.

Fathers Draft
Still Puzzl les

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13. (UP)-
The father draft issue remained a
complicated puzzle Monday after
a week end of confusing statements
that did nothing to alter prospects
that about 100000 pre-Pearl Har-
Dor fathers may be inducted by
July.
But even that number may be
reduced as result of two prospec-
tive developments still in the study
stage. These were:
|. A plan to cancel all occupa-
tional deferments now held by men
in the age group from 18 to %.
2. Possibility that the army and
nav will agree to relax physical
requirements so that some of the
estimated 100000 single and child
less married men classified AZ can
be inducted,
Chairman Andrew j. May, Demo-
crat, Kentucky, of the house mill
tary affairs committee, had an
nounced that Selective Service
would draft fathers by age groups,
starting with those under ", but
this subsequently was said to have
resulted from a misunderstanding
of the proposal to cancel deferments
for the 1922 group, which includes
only a few pre-Pearl Harbor faith
erS.

Russians Turn
On Nazis in
Kiev Battling
Recover Lost Ground
In Sudden Thrust;
Destroy 1000 Tanks

MOSCOW, Dec 13, (UP) = The
Red army has regained the initia-
tive in the Kiev salient, not only
stopping massed German forces but
recovering some lost ground, after
crucial battle of nearly a month
which cost the Nazis more than
LOCO tanks, Soviet front reports
said Monday.
Suddenly reversing the eastward
trend of the fighting west of Kiev,
the Russians charged out of their
defense positions and recaptured
several villages southwest of Malin,
SO miles beyond the Ukrainian
capital.
Though it would be premature to
say that all danger to Kiev had
been averted by the developments
Of the last two days, there was
would be unable to repeat their ex-
point last spring when they coCn-
tered a Russian offensive to re-
claim Kharkov and much of the
Donets basin.
The reports of limited Soviet
successes on the rim of the Kiev
Bulge said the scale and intensity
of the German attacks had Waned,
doubtless because of their tremend-
Gus losses suffered since Nov. 10
when the all out effort was launch
ed to throw the Russians back to
the Dnieper and recapture Kiev.

= LONDON, Dec. 13. UP)-Ten-
sion mounted throughout the Bal

army peace ultimatum in Bulgaria,
a purge of anti-German elements
in Rumania and the arrival of a
Nazi trouble shooter" in Hungary.
European dispatches indicated
the American air raid on Sofia Fri
day and U. S. secretary of state
Cordell Hull's warning that Axis
satellite nations must share the
consequences OF Germany's defeat
had spread uneasiness through the
three countries.
The Allied nerves" offensive ap-
peared to be fast taking on the
character of that which preceded
the invasion of Italy and that
country'S surrender.
Increased air raids on southeast
ern Europe were anticipated and
British foreign secretary Anthony
Eden, fresh from the Tehran and
Cairo conferences, was expected to
elaborate on Hull'S warning in a
speech before commons in the near

IANkS SHAT TER GERMAN LINES IN ITALY
Railways Defy
FEPC Ruling
On Negro Help
Carriers Supplying
SOuth'S Needs
Cite Certain Chaos

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13. (UP)-
Sixteen railroads and terminal COM
panies Monday defied orders of
the presidents fair employment
practice committee to halt discrimi-
nation against Negro employees.
The refusal to comply was con-
tanned in a letter to the committee
which charged the orders lacked
constitutional authority, would vio-
late the railway labor act, and
"gravely and irreparably impair the
whole war effort"
The carriers control the vast bulk
of traffic moving into the south.
HELD AS MANDATORY
The FEPC findings against the
carriers and seven labor unions
were made public November 18,
shortly after President Roosevelt
had clarified his order setting up
the committee, holding that its Or
ders were mandatory and not per-
missive as Comptroller General
Lindsay Warren had ruled. Enforce
ment, however, involves withhold
ing government contracts and in
the case of railroads would not be
very effective.
Signing the letter of response to
the committees orders were the
following railroads: Atlantic Coast
Line; Atlanta Joint Terminals; Cen
tral of Georgia; Georgia Railroad;
Jacksonville Terminal; Louisville
S1 Nashville; Norfolk Southern;
Frisco; Seaboard; Southern; Ches-
apeake & Ohio; Gulf, Mobile &
Ohio; Norfolk and Western; Illinois
Central; Yazoo & Mississippi VAL
ley; and Gulf & Ship Island.
In connection with the committee
findings that the railroads and
railway labor unions we're guilty of
discrimination, mainly in methods
of promotions, the carriers pointed
out that under the railway labor
act railroads "are entirely without
power to dictate to their employees
or to effect any changes in
agreements reached with the un-
ions.
WOULD CAUSE CHAOS
Any attempt of the carriers to
comply, SO as to promote Negroes
to locomotive engineers or train
conductors, would inevitably dis
rupt their present peaceful and
cooperative relations with their
employees the railroads held
In addition they said such COM
pliance would antagonize the trav-
cling and shipping public served
by them, would substitute condi-
tionS of chaos for the present con-
dition of harmony would result in
stoppages of transportation, and
would most gravely and irreparably
impair the whole war effort of the
country" I.

Jap Prisoners
Tel! of Gas
Used on Chinese

CHUNGKING, Dec. 13. (UP) =
Japanese prisoners said Thursday
that their armies are using tear
and sneezing gas on the central
China front and admitted that they
are equipped with poison gases for
use at the discretion of their field
officers.
Interviewed by Chinese intelli-
gence officers in the presence of
Allied military observers and cor
respondents, the prisoners said
suffocating and blister gas shells
are regular field equipment of
japanese forces in Central China.
All denied stubbornly, however,
that they had ever seen the poison
gases used against Chinese troops.

Stimson Reports
Patton Slap
Cases to Senate

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13. (UP) =
Secretary Of War Henry l.. Slim
son reported to the senate today
that the two slapping incidents al
ready reported in the press ap-
reared to be only instances in
which Lieut.. Gen. George S. Pat
ton. Jr., has physically mistreated
soldiers under his command in the
Mediterranean theater of war.
Stimson reported, however, that
General Dwight D. Eisenhower had
informed him that Patton had re-
portedly spoken threateningly and
with undue harshness" to a soldier
for failing to wear leggings.
He said that Eisenhower has re-
iterated, however, that none of
these incidents has affected Pat
tons standing as a tactical leader
whose men would follow him into
battle.
The two slapping incidents oc-
Cured in Sicilian field hospitals,
according to the report from Eisen-
hover which Stimson forwarded to
the senate military affairs COM
mittee.
Eisenhower reported that on
August 3 in the 18th evacuation
hospital in Sicily Patton slapped
Private Charles l.. Kuhl of Misha-
waka, Ind
"This is the only incident similar
to the one already reported in an
other hospital as of August TO-
Eisenhower reported.
The report from Eisenhower said
he was informed by reliable news
paper correspondents of Patton's
censure of soldier for not wear
ing legging5. The report said the
soldier nad left the :csgings off be-
cause his ankles were swollen. It
added, however, that the soldier
was doing full combat duty"

Massed fire from -millimeter
''long tom" rifles and howitzers and
-millimeter field pieces shatter-
ed the German concentration and
dispersed it's reinforcemcnt5 before
the assault could get underway
southwest of Filignano.
FEAR FLANKING THRUST
Only "a hours before, a German
attack was repulsed by determined
American stand in the Mount Sam
mucro heights just north of Mig
nano. The latest effort betrayed
German concern over a possible
thanking thrust by American forces
from the 3,000-foot mountains to-
ward Casino.
Northwest of Filignano, other
American forces cut up strong
German patrol thrust apparently
intended as a diversion. M
On the Adriatic end of the Ital-
ian front, Canadian troops of the
British Eighth army captured
heights commanding the town of
Ortona, threatening to collapse Ger
man defenses on a l5-mile front
running inland from the Adriatic
to the 8000-foot Maiella noun
tains.
Soggy weather had closed down
again on the entire Italian front,
official reports showed, and, COM
bined with stiff German resistance,
slowed the fighting.
(The Moscow radio, heard in
London, said Gen. Sir Bernard L.
Montgomery had launched a gen.
eral offensive toward Pescara and
Chieti, eight to IL miles beyond his
army's present front line in Italy.
BIG GUNS
Slowly showing back three divi-
SionS of NaziS, the Eighth brought
its guns to bear on the vital lateral
supply road running inland from
Ortona through Orsogna to Guardi-
agrele, the major point on the enc
my's line below the Pescara river.
With OrtOna now in easy range
of Montgomery's devastating artil-
lery and the road made unusable for
the Nazis, it was thought possible
riedly onto Pescara.
An official allied commentator
said three German divisions had
been identified on a 15-mile front
running inland from the Adriatic
where the Nazis were counterattack-
ing necessarily and burning towns
and villages as they retreated. The
divisions were the Goth panzer gren-
adiers, the 26th panzers and the
65th infantry.
NIP COUNTERATTACK
West of Filgnano, in the noun
famous American sector of Lieuten-
ant General Mark w. Clarks Fifth
army front, artillery and mortar
fire broke up German efforts to
gather forces for a counterattack.
A German thrust "a hours earlier
in the cloud-hung heights above
the main Capua- Rome road, which
Clark's forces now dominate along
its approaches into the Casino
plain, failed before determined
American resistance.
Official reports in the first re-
capitulation of the growing prisoner
list, said 5000 Germans have been
captured by the Fifth and Eighth
armies since the first landings on
the peninsula.
