RUSSIA:
Cut Ndzi Railroads

Two important railroads in Russia
linking German armies of the north
with those of the south, and running
westward into the big pre-war Polish
cities of Warsaw and Lwow, were
cut by the Red armies.
AS the Russian forces severed
these major German arteries, Nazi
forces launched a strong counterat-
tack against the Reds m the vicinity
of these rail lines, gaining some
ground. But here, as further to the
south where the Germans claimed
100000 Russians were hammering
them above Krivoi Rog, the Nazi
positions still were in fluid state.
To the north, the Reds pecked at
the Nazi base of Gomel, serving as
the southern anchor of their Baltic
line which is hinged on Finland. Ten
classes of reservists in the Baltic
states have been called to military
service by the Nazis.

SOUTHWEST PACIFIC:
Action Spreads

With U. S.. forces being strength
ened on Bougainville for a major
drive against the 10000 Japs report
eddy defending their last stronghold
in the Solomons, Liberator bombers
dashed against the enemy's tiny Gil
bert and Marshall Island posses
sions, standing out like pesky little
thorns along our supply routes to
the battle areas.
Warding off Jap blows from the
air, u. S. warships moved up Bou-
gainville's west coast to pound the
enemy's big airplane base of Buka.
Absence of strong elements of the
Japanese fleet in the advanced bat
tie zone suggested that the enemy
was concentrating his formidable
naval force on protection of his 800
mile sea lane running from Japan
proper to the rich islands south.
In New Guinea, Australian forces
began moving northward from
Finschhafen toward the Jap strong
holds of Madang and Wewak, from
which the enemy's aerial units have
been striking at the Allied bases.

ARMY CUTS SIZE:
Draft Change Voted

AS the house sent the senate a bill
calling for the deferment of fathers
until all other eligible single and
childless married men throughout
the nation have been called, it was
revealed that the army had decided
to cut its manpower needs by
$4,000.
In addition to the provision put
ting fathers at the bottom of the
draft lists and postponing their in
duction from 80 to 60 days, the house
bill also requires occupational defer
ments be reviewed by appeal boards
within the district where the de-
ferred person works. A five man
medical commission would be es-
tablished to consider the possibility
OF lowering physical standards.
The $4,000 cut in manpower
needs will give the army total
force of 1852 1000 men. 1t also was
revealed that the army had saved
over 10 billion dollars out of 127
billion dollars appropriated for its
use, with economies of over 10
billion dollars effected by curtail-
ment of the armament, equipment
and airplane programs.

LAND HOLDINGS:
Vast u. S. Ownership

While Undersecretary of War Rob-
ert Patterson announced the war de-
partment was giving serious study to
peacetime disposal of its holdings
of 43, 49, 1888 acres of land, it was re-
vealed the federal government
owned 1888, 600,533 acres.
Federal land holdings were equal
in size to the combined areas of
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Rhode Island, Massachusetts,, Con-
necticut, Pennsylvania, New York,
New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland,
West Virginia, Virginia, North Caro-
lima, South Carolina, Georgia, Flor
ida, Ohio, Alabama, Kentucky and
Indiana.
Adding to the federal government
vast land holdings, the army and
navy purchased IS hotels at a cost
of SIS, 100000. Some of these hotels
have been returned to private own
ership, like the Stevens in Chicago,
bought for $5,528, 101 and sold for
$5,251, 1000.

OIL:
Seek Ne,U Wells

With a projected goal of $4,000
new oil wells in 1914, prospects
doomed for increased activity in
the Rocky Mountain states.
OF the $4,000 new oil wells, 5000
are to be exploratory and the re-
naming $4,000 development prof.
ects. The immense Powder river
basin in the northeastern section of
Wyoming and southeastern section
of Montana might prove the focal
point of operations.
Congressional action in reducing
royalties on discoveries on public
domain to fiat 1875 per cent for
the duration and 10 years afterward
furnishes incentive for action in the
Rocky mountain region.

RAILROAD WAGES:
In Congress Lap

AS congress considered resolu-
ton to grant incorporating railroad
employees an eight cents an hour
wage increase, it was announced
railroad employment in mid-October
of 1943 was per cent over the
same period last year, but still 100,-
900 short of needs.
Congressional action on the wage
increase was sought after the Office
of Economic Sterilization refused to
sanction the award, instead offering
lowest paid employees a 10 cents
an hour boost and the highest paid
cents an hour.
In all, the railroads employed
1,367,817 workers in mid-October,
with critical shortages existing in
the operating departments. Main
tenance-of-way and structural clas-
sifications showed a 3.57 decrease
from October of 1912.

Lend-Lease Foods

Lend-lease food shipments abroad
equal one-eighth of the U. S. supply,
the Foreign Economic administra-

ing three-fourths of the production.
Figures show that in the first nine
months of this year, lend-lease food
shipments include 80 per cent of
total milk products; 1915 per cent of
dried eggs; 1879 per cent of edible
oils and fats; and 21.2 per cent of
canned fish.
Shipments of canned fruits and
juices equal 2.5 per cent of total

canned vegetables, per cent; dried
