PACIFIC:
Ne,v Guinea Victory

With the fall of Mubo, the big
Japanese base of Salamaua in New
Guinea lay in peril of capture by
Australian and American forces OPP
Grating from all sides.
Mubo fell about two weeks after
the start of General Macarthur
Pacific offensive. American troops
had landed on Nassau bay to the
east of the town, and then marched
into the interior to cut off Japanese
forces from the rear and effect
junction with the Australians. At
the same time, Allied soldiers at
tackled the enemy's main lines, and
thus, completely enveloped on all
sides, Mubo was overrun.
The Allied success at Mubo came
as American troops pressed closer
to the Japanese air base of Munda
on New Georgia island. Approach
ing the stronghold from the north
and east, doughboys worked eau
tiously through jungle foliage to gain
ground. Squeezed, the enemy
launched one counterattack, but
withdrew fire after being stopped.

SICILY:
The Hour Has Come

Axis resistance on Sicily stiffened
as Gen. Bernard Montgomery's Brit
ish 9th army moved on the big port
of Catania, which is IS miles from
the terminus of Messina, where but
two miles of water separate the is
land from the Italian mainland.
AS the battle of Sicily ragged,
President Roosevelt and Prime Min
lister Churchill told the Italian peo-
pie the hour had come to honorably
capitulate.
While British troops clattered
toward the great plains which roll
around Catania, Gen. George S. Pat
toms 7th American army fought its
way into the area of Vizzini, from
which the British flank can be COW
cred or an assault sprung toward
the Axis rear.
Hundreds of Allied paratroopers
continued to be dropped behind the
enemy's lines near Catania. To the
front, the 9th army recovered from
a heavy Axis blow with which they
had driven into Montgomery's base
at Augusta before being repealed.

Declaring the best thing that could
happen to the Office of Price Admin

per cent in its staff of 1900 attor-
neys, Lou r. Maxon, deputy adj
ministrator of OPA, turned in his
resignation.
Maxon's withdrawal came at a
time when he was being prominent
ly mentioned as a general manager
for the OPA, a job later given to
Chester Bowles, New York adver-
Using executive. He complained of
the governments failure to estab-
lish definite food program, charg-
ing that instead of working out a
set policy, the administration was
meeting each crisis with make
shift compromise, thus creating the
basis of another crisis. Price Adj
ministrator Brown replied that OPA
had definite policy in "roll-backs"
to reduce retail costs to Septem-
Der, 1912, levels.
A Detroit, Mich, advertising ex-
ecutive, Maxon failed OPA 'theo-
rists" and professors" for attempt
ing to institute grade labelling pro-
gram for goods, which would elm
mate all trade marks and brands
and have the effect of eliminating
competitive merchandising.

FUEL:
Gas for Farmers

Predicting Tightening Of the sup
ply of crude oil in the West, the
Petroleum Administration for War
took steps to provide sufficient gaso-
line for farmers throughout the
country by giving them first call on
available stocks. a 4S
According to WAP, farmers are
using about 100000 barrels of mo-
tor fuel daily, 80 per cent Of which
is being consumed outside of the
East. About 10000 barrels are re-
quired in the Middlewest.
As the WAP made its announce
ment, the big-inch pipe line running
from Norris, ILL.,, to the East was
opened. Eventually the line will
pump 100000 barrels of crude daily,
thus draining the West of supplies
that had previously abounded be-
cause Of lack of transportation
facilities. y
Meanwhile, the oil industry con-
tinuedS alarmed By. the drop in oil
reserves, partly caused, spokesman
said, because of a virtual cessation
Of exploratory drilling as result
Of prices for crude. Between so to
60 billion barrels of new oil will have
to be discovered within the next 20
years, it is said, to maintain present
production. VOL

Marketing of cattle increased in
the face of talk in Washington that

spur liquidation of herds. Plans also
called for modifying the govern
ment's support price of $13.75 for
hogs, to discourage feeding for

Although cattle marketings in

exceptionally scarce. Continued
heavy shipments of hogs and sheep,
however, bolstered the overall meat
production. sa
OPA's plans for livestock ceilings
have been bitterly contested by con-
gressional farm spokesman, meat
packers and cattle raisers. Under
the present system Of setting whole
sale ceilings, small packers have
found difficulty operating since no
bar has been set on prices paid for
stock.

FDR Restores Order .

Hereafter, if any administrative
heads in Washington are In conflict
over fact or policy, they must re-
solve their differences quietly or
else turn in their designations. That,
in short, was the ultirnaturn Presi-
dent Roosevelt laid down after Hen
ny Wallace had charged Jesse Jones
with interfering with the operations
of the Board of Economic Warfare,
which Wallace headed.
The President solved the Wallace
Jones fracas by abolishing the BEW
and establishing the Office Of Eco
nomic Warfare and then appointing
as it's director Leo T. Crowley, alien
property custodian and chairman of
the Federal Deposit Insurance cor
poration.
The action relieved both Wallace
and Jones of direction in the gov
ernment's purchase of foreign ma
terials. Previously, the two agen-
cies had shared in the program,
with the Reconstruction Finance
corporation, which Jones heads, sup
plying the funds for the buying.
