Land Banks TO Adjust
Loan Interest Rates

BY the Associated Press.
The Farm Credit Administration
announced yesterday that its II Fed
eral land banks will place all their
outstanding farm loans on per
cent interest rate basis next June 30.
Some of the early land bank loans
were made at rates as high as 6
per cent.
However, since 1888, Congress has
been voting subsidies to the land
banks which enabled them to charge
farmer borrowers only 312 per cent.
BY instituting a uniform 4 per
cent rate, the land bankss would
make unnecessary the subsidies.

ED.R. Churchill Consider Newly-Drawn Blueprint
(Continued from Page 1.)

both MT. Roosevelt and Churchill definitely are committed to accept nothing short of unconditional sur render.
 Lunch With Athloi,e
 The President and the Prime Minister lunched with the Earl of Athlone, Governor General of Can ada, and tonight King will enter tain them at dinner for about 50 guests.
 Announcement by White House Press Secretary Stephen T. Early that the chief executive would visit Ottawa fulfilled an invitation ol several years standing. The Can adian prime minister, on each of several trips to Washintgon since the war began, has asked MT Roosevelt to come to Ottawa. MT. Roosevelt's visit to Ottawa will be regarded in Canada with tremendous significance, particular ly in view of the fact that it will be the first time in history that an American President has visited the Canadian capital.
 Long Conference The President and Churchill were together well after midnight, ac- cording to White House Secretary Stephen T. Early and in conference again shortly after both arose thi morning.
 Their principal place of meeting in the Quebec residence of the gov ernor general-Was a huge, wide widowed room looking out on the military walls of the citadel. From this ancient house perched on a cliff towering above the St. Law renee, they could view the distant Laurentian mountains, but 1t was doubtful that the President and the prime minister had much time for scenery.
 Detailed maps and charts sur rounded them. The room, ordin- arily sun room, is equipped with office facilities. Outside its win- doWs, red-coated mounted police paced in constant guard.
 The President arrived yesterday olOCi iiiOOll, lCdVlllB IIlS CIdIl dt Bleak Wolfes Cove and driving im- mediately to the historic citadel where he and Churchill will give their approval to the war plans drawn up by their pick and shovel boys"-the staff chiefs and between 300 and 400 subordinage specialists from every war theater.
 They had before them the fruits of weeks intensive preparation by the best Army, Navy and Air brains of both countries. Their endorse ment probably means action in the near future.
 But the Roosevelt Churchill con. ference will go much beyond the next military move of the Allies They will go into troubled fields o1 international politics. Secretary of State Cordell Hull joins the con- ferences later in the week alone with Anthony Eden, the British foreign secretary. Harry Hopkins,

the fields for three hours. More formations followed up through the morning. The communique said vast havoc" resulted. The Wewak penirsular area was covered by flames visible 150 miles.
 At Borum," 1t added, "the motors og 60 fighters and bombers were be- ing warmed up, air crews were In their planes and ground crews were standing by as we struck. Some pilots frantically endeavored to take to the air and were burned with their planes"
 The success preserved Allied New Guinea ground troops fighting near Salamaua and Allied New Guinea ground troops fighting near Sala- maua and Allied installations from damaging enemy air attacks. Strong Japanese air formations out on For avs against Allied Strongpoints Sunday and Monday were defeated with the loss of probably 26 planes.
 Estimates of Damage
 Estimates of the damage were based on reconnaissance pictures of the area, which constitutes the ene- my's strongest fortress on the New Guinea coastline. Later reports may increase them.
 But Major General Ennis White head, commander of the advanced echelon of Allied Forces in New Guinea, issued a statement carrying a portent of further air fights be-

back the Germans to the west bank of the Dnieper River and probably doom Axis forces in the Crimea and On 8 narrow strip of the northwest Caucasus.
 Front dispatches said heavy bat ties were racing in Kharkov and in two critical sectors to the west and southwest, where the Germans were said to be disclosing unexpected armored strength following the ar- rival of fresh Panzer and infantry reserves.
 Front dispatches indicated that the Russian strategy was to absorb the German attacks until the Germans have either worn themselves out or been bled white, then resume the march westward and southWard on a grand scale.
 The Germans hurled 100 tanks and huge infantry forces against a single sector of the Soviet Liue west of Kharkov yesterday, only to be thrown back with a loss of nearly half their armored strength - 4e tanks and 4,000 men.
 Surprise Attack
 In neighboring sector, the So- viets took advantage of a brief lull in the fighting to launch a surprise attack that netted several more vil- lages. Nine hundred Germans were killed and 1855 taken prisoner. Three Cotton Tiger tanks, 18 guns and many other weapons were captured
 Northwest of Kharkov, the Rus sians wiped out whole German infantry battalion 1000 men and captured all its equipment.
 Red Air Force planes supported the ground forces, raiding troor concentrations as well as Kharkov itself.
 Continuing Russian advances or the Bryansk and Spas Demensk fronts to the north were reported More than 60 towns and villages fell to the Russians on Bryansk's de- fense perimeter yesterday with ad- vances of up to four miles reported

 The Soviet high command said the Germans were abandoning "one position after another" before Bry- ansk, main base on the central front. At one point, the Russians forced a water barried and captured several defense points after killing 2,00O Germans and destroying 3e tack and 79 guns.
 Another 2,O0O Germans were killed on the Spas Demensk front 30 miles to the north, where a number ol towns and villages also were cap. tured.

Drastic Penalties
 For WLB Violations

of interference with production"
 "In addition" he said, sanctions can be applied by the selective serv- ice and the war manpower com mission" he said he was telling Vipson to direct the application of such penalties when necessary.
 A check with selective service headquarters revealed that it re- gently amended its regulation to provide for termination of defer ments of registrants mot support ing" or adversely affecting" the war effort. The new regulation pro- vides that when the selective service director shall inform a local board that a deferred registrant is not supporting the war effort or the national health, safety or interest" :" the board shall immediately terminate his deferment.
 Presidents Letter
 The Presidents letter praised WLB's remarkable record"
 T am informed that during the past 18 months, the board disposed of over 1000 disputes. Only seven had to be referred to me because of persistent noncompliance" the President said.
 "T'his is a remarkable record, in the making of which the industry, labor and public members of the board have each played an effec- tive part.
 "They could not have succeeded, however, without the patriotic sup port given to the national no-strike, no-lockout agreement by the great mass of American employers and workers and their leaders"

 up the peninsula lessened the chance of invasion at the toe.
 Movements Hampered
 Blasting of communications al- ready had hampered movement of Axis troops northward and if Rome finally is made an open city-the routes of retreat for the Germans would be nearly impossible. Much traffic feeds through the capital from north and south.
 Swiss radio broadcasts said Italian Premier Marshal Pietro Badoglio has made his second pro- posal that Rome be declared an open city though the Allies have made no reply.
 United Press dispatches from Buenos Aires said the Italian en- bassy had informed the Argentine government that the declaration had been made.
 In connection with the declara- ton, an Italian frontier dispatch said Badoglio, besides removing key defense ministries and munitions factories from Rome, decided to move the entire government to Viterbo, 48 miles to the north.
 Rapid Solution Difficult
 The Gagette Lausanne said Switzerland would not hesitate to assume responsibility for guarantee ing Rome's open city status should 1t be asked to do so, but commented that no such request had been re- ported and lack of communications with Italy might make rapid solu- ton difficult.
 Badoglio's attempts to save Rome from further bombing were tied tightly to future developments in Italy since If the Germans have to fight their way out of the Penin- sula, the capital must be a military traffic center or the troops would have to take long way around
 The Germans tried to picture the close of the Sicilian campaign as victory for them, but a Madrid dispatch said reports from Italy in dicated that Italians gave little credence to these claims.

MT. Roosevelt,s No. 1 adviser, came here with the President and with him Lsador Lubin, the ranking sta tistical expert of the American gov ernment and Hopkins principal as- Sistant.
 Spade Work" Conferences
 Lubin preceded the presidential party and presumably has been sit- ting in on some of the spare work" conferences that have been in prog resS for days at Chateau Frontenac, not far from the citadel where both the President and the prime min- ister are staying.
 A welcoming party that included Churchill, the Earl of Athlone, Gov ernor General of Canada, and w. L. Mckenzie King, Canadian prime minister, was waiting at the freight siding at Wolfe's Cove when the presidential train pulled in. They went by motorcade to the citadel where composite section of Can adian armed forces gave MT. Roose- welt strictly American show.
 The band of the scarlet-coated Royal Canadian mounted police played the Star Spangled Banner and at the Kings BaStion, a bluff overlooking the St. Lawrence, color guards ran up the standard of the United States, Great Britain and Canada. Then Canadian soldiers sailors, marines and airmen gave the flashy royal salute and the President drove on to Athlone s summer quarters in the citadel, a grey-stone structure.
 Attend Small" Dinner
 Mir. Roosevelt, Churchill and King attended a "small' dinner at which Athlone, as the representative Of the British crown, was host. Af- ter dinner the President and Chur- chill sat up until late in the evening discussing latest developments.
 The President and the Prime Minister were expected to devote most of today to reviewing the fine ly detailed plans prepared by their staff chiefs in week of meeting For practical purposes, the work of the staff chiefs Is done, unless MT. Roosevelt and Churchill make unexpected alterations. There will be, of course, final consultations and readjustment.
 Two of the men who drafted the plans for the President and Chur- chill met more than 100 reporters late yesterday, and expressed the hope that the heavy work - the drafting of detailed plans - was near an end.
 There will be similar press con- ferences and from these gatherings in the council chamber of the Que bee city hall will come probably the most authoritative information available here.
 Important Statement Probable
 The belief that MT. Roose. would have an important public statement to make perhaps a radio address while he is here was strengthened by the fact that he brought with him his stenog. rapher whose primary duty Is te record his words at press confer. ences and elsewhere. MT. Roosevelt also brought along his persona. telephone operator, meaning he will be in constant touch with Washing ton.
 The members of his party includ. ed Hopkins. Admiral Wilson Brown his naval aide; Stephen T. Early White House press secretary, and Grace Tully, the Presidents per- sonal secretary.
 Averill Hartman, American lend- lease "expediter" in London, and Admiral William D. Leahy, MT.

 Program Outlined


 The program as outlined in the letter:
 When an employer refuses to comply with VILE order, his plant may be seized and operated ]. by the government. The President recommended "less drastic" penal ties, such as "control of war con- tracts, of essential materials, and of transportation and fuel"
 When a union refuses to comply, the plant involved will be taken over and operated by the govern ment If this is necessary to pre- vent interference with production and protect the workers who wish to work" Further, steps would be taken to withhold from the offend ing union "the benefits, privileges or rights accruing to it as such under the agreement or proposed agreement with the employer, until the union demonstrates it's willing ness and capacity to abide by the obligations thereof"
 Dues in Escrow
 Checked-off funds-dues withheld from workers paychecks and turned over to the union by the employer would be withheld in escrow pending union compliance.
 Concerning compliance by in- dividuals, the President pointed to existing penalties for certain types

fore the New Guinea struggle is won. He said the Allied blow is only "the opening of the battle for air supremacy in central New Guinea. ' Before MacArtuhr began his of- fensive in the Southern Pacific June 30, Allied leaders warned of im- mense enemy air concentrations north of Australia. Since then hundreds of these planes have been shot down over New Guinea of the Solomons.
 On the Solomons end of the of- fensive front, American ground troops broke Japanese resistance at zeita village on New Georgia Island and pushed on toward Bairoko liar bor, four and half miles away. Other troop slanded on Baanga Is- land, across narrow channel northwest of Munda, where fugitive enemy troops evidently had set up gun positions. Baanga was subjected to bombing attack.

shuttle raids on Germany to an in- creasing degree while demonstrat- ing beyond all doubt that the end of German power is only a matter of time."
 "The Allied air forces in Africa are now in contact with those in England and Germany is between their jaws" he said: We do not yet know the results of todays at- tacks. We know that the destruction of the two targets would have a very serious effect on the enemy $ war machine. But at this hour we do not know how well the job was done"
 Targets Hard Hit
 However, preliminary reports in dicated that both targets were hit hard. At Schweinfur4 whose fac tories produce 52 per cent of the ball and roller bearings used in German planes, tanks, submarines and heavy artillery, American air men saw smoke pillow up to 10000 feet.
 Major Jerald Price of Estes Park Colo, pilot of the fortress we the people," said it looked as though the whole town was burning
 Though full reports were lacking from the fortress crews who attack ed Regensburg, 1t was understood that their raid was equally success full. Smoke was seen rising from factory buildings and numerous craters were observed.
 We'll Defended Areas
 Both American formations flew across the most-heavily defended areas of westeran Europe in a striking demonstration of their abil- ] ity to reach any objective within flying range in daylight. The Schweinfurt raiders reported that the Germans appeared to have throw every available fighter plane against them, including Reichs Marshal Hermann Goering's crack yelloW-noSe squadron.
 American Thunderbolts and Brit. ish Spitfires escorted the bombers part of the way and shot down al least B of the intercepting fighters Allied airmen said the sky seemed full of turning, twisting aircraft al the way to and from Central Ger. many.
 GA German broadcast claimed that 58 American planes were sho down over southwestern and south ern Germany yesterday0 | Other Raids While British-base fortresse! were over central and southern Germany, strong forces of African. based fortresses attacked German airdromes at Istres Le Tube ane Salon, 25 miles northwest of Mar seilles, in the first American raiG on southern France.
