 since Lee was operating with limited means with the Confederacy shift ing from one flank to another-a blue print of our operations in the Southwest Pacific" he said.
 He warned the Japanese, because of internal supply lines running to their bases above the 490-mile line between Empress Augustat Bay on Bougainville in the Solomons and Finschhafen on New Guinea the base of triangle pointed at Aus tralia-- could still mount major blow.
 The statements were prompted by one from Rear Admiral w. H. Young saying that Macarthur flow of supplies was enough for a large scale offensive.
 "The Southwest Pacific" Diller said, "has something less than five per cent of American military re- sources and is now receiving some- thing under 10 per cent of what America is shipping overseas. This is much more than former ly. The percentage of air resources is somewhat lower. Without com- plaint, the aea is doing everything it can with what it has,"
 Specific Statement
 The statement was the most spec fife of many issued in the long dis pute over the quantity of war ma terial furnished Macarthur for his offensive to drive the Japanese out of their island outposts.
 The five per cent figures applied to ground forces and equipment but not to planes or naval forces. The southwest Pacific has practically nc naval force. It also was not related to Admiral William F. Halseys south Pacific area, which Is under MacArthur's command but not his administration.
 MacArthur's comm u nique a. nounced that 20 enemy planes were shot down and six more probably destroyed Monday when P-40'S suc- cessfully tended off a raid by 50 Japanese aircraft over Nadzab and Gusap, airdromes in interior New Guinea up the Ramu river valley.
 The defending forces, protecting advanced airstrips developed to aid Australian troops moving through the valley toward the enemy north east coastal base at Madang, suf- fered only light losses.
 Averger torpedo planes went to the aid of marines on the Bougain- vill' beachhead in the SolomonS to blast enemy troops loose from deep positions on the east flank, report from Halsey's headquarters said while the communiQue announced that Australian Beaufort bombers sank an 8,000-ton transport, dam- aged anothe" vessel and attacked enemy installations in g new raid on Rabaul, New Britain.
 (George T. Folster, NEG reporter broadcasting from Guadalcanal said American army forces were pouring ashore on Bougainville, moving without serious trouble over we'll protected supply ines. (Hugh Dash. correspondent of the Sydney, Australia, telegraph report ed that he accepted claims of huge damage in recent air raids on Ra- bauI as result of inspecting aerial pictures of the base, adding that "a time limit can safely be placed on it's longevity" "The outlook in the Southern Pacific was never bcie = er," he said)

 Bowles said that if subsidies were banned and prices subsequently, rose by at least 10 per cent, the cost of the war would be increased by 8 minimum of $15,000 000,0 900 through higher prices, rents and additions to the national debt.
 He said the success of the fight against imitation was beset with two "if's." The first, he said, involved controlling wage levels, and the second, price levels.

 The conference report provides that appeals boards with jurisdiction over the area in which a registrant works, rather than where he might be registered, shall handle occupa- tional deferment appeals. It also makes the president finally reSpon- sible for questions regaring indus trial deferments.
 The bill also authorizes the presi- dent to name a medical board to review physical standards set by the army and navy, and permits, under restrictions, pre-indudction physical examinations.
 It was said that most single men of the nation, physically and other wise acceptable to the armed forces TOW are in the armed forces and the bill would have no retarding affect on the drafting of fathers who con- sistently have been on the bottom of the list.

Europe say that the Rumanians again are sounding out, through third parties, the possibility of separate peace. Probably in con- nection with these reports, Ruma- nian Premier Antonescu is visiting Hitler's headquarters.
 Bulgaria at present is too deeply committed to Hitler to make over- lures to the Allies, but the over whelming pro-Russian sentiment throughout that country leaves little doubt that the government would not survive collapse of Rumanian resistance.
 Thus, it would seem advisable that MT. Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin meet soon to lay the groundwork for taking immediate advantage of any breach in Hitler's Balkan wall. There has been criticism in both the United States and Britain that these two countries were caught flat-fcoted by the deposal of Pre- mier Benito Mussolini and Italy's surrender.

 Today Goebbels is on the receiv- ing end of one of his own devices and has to write a weekly article in Das Reich exhorting the Germans to keep steady nerves.
 London, November IT. - (UP) - The Istanbul newspaper Vatan said today that the Germans were exc cutting more than 100 persons day in Berlin in an effort to end defeat ism and opposition to the Nazi regime.
 The newspaper said sagging mor- ale on the German home front ap- peared due more to Allied bombing raids, each of which was causing 10000 to 15,000 deaths, than to bad news from the Russian front.
 To counteract defeatism. the newspaper said, the Germans were circulating by @ whispering cam paign 8 rumor that Germany has tunneled beneath the English Chan nell and will blow up Britain with dynamite.
 Reports published in Sweden said that German Interior Minister Heinrich Himmler has decreed that 12-year-old boys and girls hence forth can be executed if they are found sufficiently mature" The age limit for executions previously was IA and, in the days before Hit Ter came into power. l6.

 Despite Rabaul's apparently hope less position, the Japanese were ex- pected to make a last-man stand there because its loss would be a major disaster. The naval Spokes- man said that in such an event, the enemy would be forced to withdraw from New Guinea.
