army headquarters declared the
Germans had lost more than H.
900 troops from Dec. "a to Jan.
4 in the north Caucasus and
listed the capture of Nalchik,
Prokhladnenski, Kotlyarevskaya
and Maiskoye in the central
Caucasus, along with Tsimlyansk
and Morozovskaya in the mid
die Don region.
Soviet dispatches said the
capture of Nalchik and Prok-
hladnenski, at once eliminated
the sharpest dangers to the
Grozny oil fields and perhaps
started the Germans on a with
drawal toward Rostov, $40 miles
to the northwest.
The Russian command said
Red army shock troops swept in
to Nalchik in a night attack
after bitter fighting.
THE Germans had girdled the
town with powerful fortifica-
tons and mined all the ap-
proaches," a Soviet communique
said.
"Our troops, supported by ar
tillery and tanks, overcame all
obstacles. In the night they
penetrated into the town and in
q decisive attack captured it.
AT the approaches to Nalchik
and in the streets of the town,
the enemy left hundreds of kill
ed officers and men,"
In the middle Don, TIE Rus
SLAMS announced the capture of
troops of q German air-borne'
division, including a regimeht
commander, and declared that
in fighting last night rour troops
occupied several populated plac-
es."
Frantic German attempts to
reach q Nazi garrison encircled
by Soviet troops were said to
haye been frustrated, with the
Invaders losing $50 killed and
six tanks destroyed.
Amid these fresh blows to
Adolf Hitler's dream Of holding
his gains through the winter,
the axis position in North Africa
grew ever more precarious.

Butter

earmarked bout 100000
pounds, or two weeks supply,
for war needs.
Under the rev order, about
two-thirds of the government
share will 60 to American mill
tary forces and almost all the
rest to Russia. Meantime, dairy
officials declared that the posi-
bility of rationing butter is being
studied. Part of the civilian
supply, they added, also may
be reserved for distribution late
in the year when butter produc-
ton declines.
The butter order applies only
TO manufacturers making more
than $4,000 pounds in any month
since January, 1912, but officials
said that would affect more than
95 per cent of total production.
More than half Of the output
of canned grapefruit juice will
be avai able TO civilians although
Wickard forbade Gamers from
selling unconcentrated grape
fruit juices during February and
March and the remainder of
January so that the supplies may
be reserved for civilians later in
the season when the amounts of
fresh citrus fruits are low.
Wholesalers and retailers, how
ever, may continue to sell their
available stocks.
JUICES FOR TROOPS
The entire production of or
ange, lemon and combination
juices, both concentrated and
unconcentrated, will serve war
requirements, but virtually all
of the concentrated juices al
ready are going to the govern
ment, Wickard said.
The order, prohibiting pack
ing of citrus juices, except
grapefruit, for commercial sale
in any type of container suitable
for storage or shipment, does
not prevent preparation and sale
of these juices by hotels, rest
aurants and similar distributors
or by concerns that customarily
supply such institutions and con-
Sumers.
President Roosevelt, mean
while, will inaugurate the 1913
food production campaign in a

ance of the united nations on

The boy was ransomed for a
race horse valued at $500. His
mother disappeared. Carver's
master recognized the boys in
telligence and permitted him to
enter school. After long strug-
gle, he won a Master of Science
degree in agriculture at Iowa
State A. & M. college in 1895.
Two years later, DR.. Booker
T. Washington, founder of Tus-
kegee Institute, invited Carver
to direct agricultural work at
that school. There was little
equipment for Carver to use and
only 10 acres of some of the
poorest farm land in Alabama.
He accepted the challenge and
set out to utilize so called
waste products" of southern
farms. From the lowly peanut,
Carver developed more than
300 useful products alone. in

to be used in the treatment of
infantile paralysis. The sweet
potato, another of scores of
plans with which he worked,
yielded we'll over 100 by-pro-

Carver steadfastly refused to
exploit his discoveries. Working
in his laboratory at Tuskegee, in
torn apron and baggy trousers,
he declined financial offers with:

Because the car trunk was
damned shut and could not be
opened for sometime. police at
first believed a third body was
stuffed inside. The belief was
false, however.
Both Police Chief Arthur I.
RoSso and Prosecutor Wilbur F.
Held said the absence of blood
in the car indicated the men
were beaten outside the car,
probably in Detroit, and then
brought to Mount Clemens.

Goldyga, Dodge worker for
