Allied naval strength in the Indian

the south by MacArthur's men cleaning

The main Jap feet must be kept at

Japan has been falling back in the South

had not been able to break down the
censorship wall built up by career
officers
1T has been an indubitable fact"
Davis said, that the Navy has been
less inclined than the Army to release
news. This is not the fault OF Secretary
Knox or of the public relations officers,
but for many years the Navy has had a
tradition OF keeping its mouth shut,
and after Is months of trying to get
news from them I can tell you that it
is pretty tough to work against that
tradition"
Just as the candid example of Mr..
Churchill has been followed by British
officialdom, the general repression policy
OF American military careerists has
been followed by subordinates who try
to guess what their superiors want and
often guess wrong.
Davis told his New York audience that
he had had little trouble getting high
Army officers to release news, explaining
that most of the Army difficulties arose
from junior officers who were so afraid
that they might lose their jobs that they
often withheld news which Army higher
ups wanted to have released.
Davis, aided by the pressure from
American newspapermen. has been max
ing some headway with the military
minds. In this he has the active sup
port Of Stephen T. Early, the President s
press secretary, and Wayne Coy, assist
ant director Of the budget, who has
more power in such matters than most
people realize. All three are former
newspapermen and they know the prob
lens of publication as we'll as those Of
government
A solution satisfactory to all will never
be attained. In time of war, some vital
information must be withheld from the
public as we'll as the enemy. But If civil
ian as we'll as military morale is to be
sustained in democracy, the electorate
must have confidence in the Official in
formation it receives and must believe
that the information is being released
as soon as it no longer gives aid to the
enemy.
Roscoe Drummond. chief of the WASH
ngton bureau of the Christian Science
Monitor. summed up the present situa-
ton for Editor and Publisher in these
words:
There is greater danger today OF an
underinformed democracy than an over
informed enemy"

to revise their definitions Of military
security that danger will continue and
this country will continue to get much

Italian Front

In Italy, where American casualties
have now reached 1907, of whom, 51l are
reported killed, the tide of war runs
steadily though not rapidly against the
Nazi forces under Rommel.
The bridgehead across the Volturno
River obtained by the American 5th Army
under 1t. Gen. Clark Friday, if main
tanned, will pave the way for the fall of
Rome, a contingency already anticipated
by the Nazis who are reported preparing
to evacuate the city, although the Amer
lean forces are still far away.
Clarks troops began moving forward
decisively last Monday when they crossed
the Galore River and despite fierce Ger
man resistance pushed steadily onward.
The Nazis, seeking to delay the advance
as much as possible demolished road
ways and bridges wherever they had time
for this operation.
BY Friday, the 5th was in possession Of
ell towns south of the Volturno and the
stage was set for the crossing which
occurred at the close of the week.
Over on the east coast, Gen Mont
gomerys British 9th Army, continuing
the leapfrog tactics which proved so
successful in Sicily, made a landing at
Termoli on the Adriatic coast about so
miles north Of Foggia and about halfway
between the heel of Italy and the mouth
of the Po River, along whose north bank
the Nazis are expected to make their
final effort to hold Northern Italy
The Germans are now using six divi-
sions against the Allies, including large
number OF armored units, some of which
are equipped with the big Tiger tanks
which are no longer so fearsome since
the American bazooka gun has been
found capable OF knocking them out.
There was much aerial activity, Allied
craft sweeping as far north as Brenner
Pass to block the escape of the Ger
mans or reinforcement whichever should
be the Nazi aim.
It was revealed yesterday that since
the landing in Africa last November, the
Axis has lost total of 5000 planes in
the Mediterranean.

Russian Front

German losses on the Russian front
began as early as Sunday when a Red
advance on the Taman Peninsula at
Stara-Tamanskaya drove the enemy
back from the last toe-hold in the Cau-
casus. A number of transports attempts
Ing to evacuate troops across narrow
Kerch Strait to the Crimea were re-
ported sunk.
Red aircraft hammered at the Nazis
in Crimea and artillery set up at Meli-
topol brought the rail line which runs
diagonally across the Crimea under fire
and menaced the invaders who hold the
peninsula including the naval bases at
Sevastopol.
The fighting was general along the
entire front throughout the week with
Red troops reported Tuesday as hav-
ing crossed the Dnieper River beyond
Gomel to penetrate deeper into White
Russia while around Kiev the fight
Ing was especially bitter.
BY Wednesday it became apparent
that the Reds, operating on the rain
soaked eastern front intended to at
tempt to turn both Nazi fanks in the

that three bridgeheads had been es-
tablished across the Dnieper. one at

Experts Seek Medical Supplies
To Prevent Epidemic Outbreak
BY Frank Carey
Associated Press Science Writer.

What has the health OF hens in the
Middle East got to do with the war
effort?
What relation Is there between pro-
curing and stabling horses in the United
States and providing gas gangrene anti
toxin for United Nations fighters?
What's the significance of finding that
more dental burrs drill points, are used
in filling cavaties in the teeth Of Amer
ican soldiers and sailors than are used
in fixing the choppers Of British
Tommies?
These are only few OF the ques-
tions which must be considered by the
medical subcommittee of the Combined
Production and Resources Board (CPRB)
of the United States, Great Britain and
Canada.
Before looking for the answers, let's
see how this medical subcommittee fits
into the picture Of the United Nations
at war.
The CPRB studies problems of pro-
duction and resources on which there
Is a critical shortage Of production facil-
tiles or raw materials-military or nom
military.
It's the job OF the medical subcom-
mittee to recommend means to insure
steady flow of medical supplies to the
lighting armies and people OF liberated
countries
Two-Fold Objective.
The subcommittee's objective is two
fold:
l. To make certain that maximum
advantage is taken of production facil-
tiles that are or can be made available,
and to see that there is no undue waste
Of scarce materials in the medical line.
2. To see that sufficient reserves of
medicine are placed in areas where there
Is potential danger of disease either
during the war or in the reconstruction
period.
Now let's get back to the hens In the
Middle East.
One Of the chief problems facing the
medical subcommittee when it was
formed last year was arranging for pro-
duction Of sufhcient antityphus fever
vaccine
For some time, the committee SAYS.
typhus has been smoldering in the Mid
die Eastern area, Russia, Poland, Spain
and other parts Of Europe. It's the COM
mittees belief that in many enemy
occupied areas the disease has been kept
within bounds only because Of rigid con-
trolls imposed by the invaders, and that
withdrawal OF the enemy may we'll mean
the collapse of all sanitary arrange
ments-thus leaving our advancing
armies and the civilian population fac
Ing the potential danger OF epidemics
The United States and Canada had
facilities for producing the vaccine. but
the committee also looked into possibiu-
ties OF producing the vaccine for the
Middle Eastern area right In that area
1t was found, however, that in certain
Middle East areas where there were
facilities for producing the vaccine, there
were limiting factors.
To produce antityphus vaccine, viruses
known as rickettsiae must be nourished
on hens eggs. 1t was found that many
eggs IN certain sections Of the Middle
East were contaminated because of a
disease called "salmonella pullorum'
among the hens.
Eggs infected with salmonella organ
lsms were found to be poor media for
growth of the viruses.

Pacific Front

Observers are waiting with impatience
for the Nays story Of what happened
at Wake Island which was brought under
attack by an American task force Tues
day in action lasting at least two davs.
Pending the return of the task force
which included at least one carrier, the
Navy would 60 no further than to de-
clare that the Jap defenses on the is
land had been overwhelmed. Rear Ad-
mlral Alfred E. Montgomery, who COM
manded the airfield at Anacostia from
1886 to 1888, was in command.
Speculation is growing since it was
learned that Admiral King, Admiral
Nimitz and Admiral Halsey have recently
held conference at which war plans
were discussed. The parley, following
the attack on Marcus Island and last
months blow at the Gilbert Islands.
coupled with the occupation of Nunumea,
most northern of the Ellice Islands, was
given further interest by the attack on
Wake. There is some belief that the
Navy may be preparing to drive In to
Truk, Japan's main base south of the
home islands. reduction of which would
menace all Japan's area OF conquest in
the Southwest Pacific.
That the Japs are drawing in their
defenSes as the result of their heavy
naval losses, 25 warships having been
sunk since June, was evident this week
when the Japs sought to remove their
10000 troops reported on Kolombangara
Island in the Central Solomons after
abandoning the airfield at Villa
This effort was climaxed in the naval
battle between Vella Lavella and Kolom-
bangara Friday. Seeking in half-moon-
light to take their troops off of Kolom-
bangara the Japs were surprised by an
American task force whose deadly fire
quickly sank a cruiser and two destroyers
and damaged two others which limped
away. Two other task forces of the Japs
in the rear of the one involved in the
fight turned tail and ran. Thousands
of Japs may have perished in the sinking
of their barges. American losses were
light
Australian troops moving up Markham
Valley on New Guinea have reached
within 60 miles of Madang, former capi-
tai of German New Guinea, making
the position of the Japs along the coast
even more critical.
On the continent in China, the tempo
OF war is picking up in anticipation of
the launching of the drive toward Bur-
ma. The Japs are pouring troops into
Southeastern China seeking to bolster
their defenses should the Allies elect to
drive across Burma and Thailand. The
Chinese were forced to give up several
towns, but near Nanking the Japs have
been driven back With heavy losses.
