 When Cruiser JuneauIs
 Sunk in SoIomons Daille

WATERLOO. Iowa, Jan. l5.-The last slender thread of hope that five sons, reported missing in action by the Navy, might be alive, was snap ped today for MT. and Mrs Thomas F Sullivan.
 A letter sent from Chicago told of how George, the eldest of five brothers lost in the sinking of the light cruiser Juneau, died on lie raft and the other fom went down with the ship
 Navy officers said the loss of the five brothers is probably the heav- fest suffered by a single family in American history.
 The Sullivan brothers insisted on remaining together and all joined the cruiser Juneau when that ship was placed in commission.

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN AUSTRALIA, Jan 15.--Allied jungle fighters counted 116 dead Japs and beat the bushes for more bodies today after a surprise two-day foray against Mubo, inland from Sala- maua and l2 miles to the south on New Guinea.
 It was the first land clash re- ported in that area in months.
 Continuing rainy weather kept the fighting down to minimum on the Sanananda front, but the enemy is being nudged back with patrol ac- tiyity.
 Sanananada is the only point on all of the Papuan Peninsula where the remnants of a Jap army that once numbered l5.000 men still hold out.
 At the same time, Gen. Douglas MacArthur's fighters and bombers maintained daily pressure on the Japanese landing strips and bivouac areas. striking along the New Guinea coast from Sanananda to Madang.

LIMITATIONS ON SERIES E BONDS
 ARE INCREASED
Co-owners Now May Pur- chase S10,OO0
 Worth

The Alaska War Savings Staff of the U. s. Treasury Department announced today that the limitation on co-ownership purchases of Ser ies E War Bonds officially has been increased to S10,000 (maturity val ue). Previously the limit of pur- chases of bonds in this series dur ing any one calendar year had been S5.000 (maturity value)
 Tt must be clearly understood that this increase applies only to co-ownership purchases, Fred w. Aver, Deputy Administrator of the War Savings Staff, said today Tn dividuals buying bonds in their own name alone, or individual purchas- es in which beneficiary is named, still will be limited to $5,000 ma turity value of bonds during any one year.
 The War Savings official offered two examples of the manner in which co-owners of Series E bonds may increase their annual hold ings, as follows:
 l. If A and B buy all their Series F bonds in co-ownership form (naming each other as co-owners) they may hold a limit of $10,000 (maturity value) combined, in- stead of $5.O00 as previously.
 2. A has bought $4,000 (maturity value) in his own name alone, and B has purchased $3,000 in his own name alone. They then decide to purchase $3,000 worth as co-owners There will be no excess under the new regulation, because the bonds may be apportioned between them but not more than $1,000 to A, and not more than $2,000 to B.

The W ashingt ion Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON fMajor Robert 8. Allen on active dutyJ

WASHINGTON. = The American public didn't hear much about it, but serious strike ragged in Boli- yia's vital tin mines last month, with repercussions affecting U. s. labor, diplomatic circles, and every American housewife who uses tin cans. U. s. Ambassador Pierre Boal cabled full details of the strike to Secretary Hull and to Jesse Jones Metals Reserve, which was worried. He reported that the Patino mines (owned by Patino, the worlds largest tin producer attempted to end the strike by closing all com- pany food stores to starve the workers out
 Government labor advisers in Washington interpret Ambassador Boals highly interesting report as meaning that he approved the ruth less methods of the tin king and was critical of the more humane
  ment
 Ambassador Boal reported, among other things, that Col Cuenca, the government representative, Host his nerve" after one of the workers was shot on December 13, and that if the Government had stood firm the strike would have failed quickly
 The Ambassador noted that the workers had stored up some food of their own and that local gro- cery stores still had food left. It would take another week, he re- ported, before workers would be starved out.
 Boal asked Secretary Hull for instructions.
 The situation is delicate because the United States must have tin, but at the same time Roosevelt has been the champion of improved la bor conditions throughout tn e world, and his envoys are not sup posed to interfere in the internal affairs of friendly nations.
 On previous occasion Boal con- ferred with President Penaranda, reportedly to try to stop adoption of Bolivian labor code which he thought might increase the price of tin to the United States. The Board of Economic Warfare had allowed the big tin companies an increased price of ten cents per pound on tin in order to raise wages and improve working condi- tions. Boal claims that this has been absorbed by local taxes, in creased mining costs, but the BEW believes that the increase has merely swelled the profits of the Big Three mining companies-Pa- tino. Hoschild, and Aramayo.
 The strike is now settled but con- tinuing labor trouble in Bolivia may mean that the United States will have less tin.

Is Cause of Some Lulus
 Right in Washington
By JACK sTINNETH

WASHINGTON, Jan. Is. = War time transportation proble e m s in Washington have produced some lulus, but the two all-time highs came recently. First, when. a bus got lost on the downtown trip from Chevy Chase Circle. checker was amazed to discover the No. 2 bus on the No route, nearly a mile from where he should have been.
 He shouted the bus driver down and wanted to know just what-in- what he thought he was doing, driv- ing a No. bus on the No route. The poor driver said he knew he was wrong, but that he was a new man and didn't know the No. ? route. No. 4. he explained, was the only one he did know, and he figured it was better to drive that one than get lost completely.
 This was topped only by the new motorman who got himself and his trolley completely lost. Taking a switch wrong, he was well on his way to the suburban community of Cabin John, Maryland, before pas sengers and route checker caught up with him. It took four miles of rerouting to bring the trolley back on the right tracks.
 The Army has some delightful stories about the lads from back woods communities who are getting their first experiences with the com- plications of metropolitan life.
 In camp near here the other day, a private complained to the post office that he had sent money order to his folks in the Middle West weeks and weeks ago, and that they had never received the money
 The A. P. O. clerk asked the private for his receipt. The lad said they couldn't catch him on that, because he had saved it. He dug down in his wallet and produced the receipt
 But the money order still was attached to it,
