CHINA:
Jdps attack

Toward Human provinces capital
of Changsha, two columns of Jap
anese force of $4,000 men launched
determined attack, making prog
ress in early fighting.
The attack marked the Japs
fourth major effort to take Chang
sha, the other campaigns failing
when willy Chinese commanders
struck at the enemy's extended
lines in the Slang valley to the
north.
This time, however, the Japs
made every attempt to bull their
way through, massing men and
material and using bombers to
smash at Chinese defensive posi-
tions.
To counter the Jap attack, che
Chinese. sprung a drive through
the mountains to the rear of he
fighting, designed to relieve pres
sure on their main front.

Lynn SAYS:

Meat Stretchers: Store and
cook meat properly for great
est economy. Fresh meat is
best stored if wiped with a
damp cloth, covered loosely
with waxed paper and stored
in coldest part of refrigerator.
Variety meats, ground meats
and fish should be used "a
hours a fter purchasing.
Ground meat darkens if allow
ed to stand and spoils more
quickly than whole cuts.
Frozen meat keeps indefi-
nitely in the freezing unit.
However, after thawing, it
spoils more quickly than other
meat and should be cooked i'm
mediately.
Cooked meats should be COW
cred closely to prevent drying
and stored in coldest part of
refrigerator. Do not cut, grind
or slice until ready to use.
Poultry should be cleaned
and washed before refrigerat-
ing. 1t keeps better if stored
whole rather than in pieces.

RUSSIA:
NGzis Hit Back

Duplicating their tactics used at
Kharkov last winter, the Nazis
struck at the Reds extended posi-
tions at the important rail junction
of Zhitomir and hurled them back
20 miles to the east in heavy fight
ing.
AS Field Marshal Fritz Won
Mannstein's 10000 Nazi troops at
tackled near Zhitomir, the Russ
sought to ease pressure on their
lines in this sector by intensifying
their drive to the north near Gomel,
within 100 miles of the old Polish
border.
AS the Nazi forces held fast to
the iron and manganese centers Of
Krivoi Rog and Nikopol in the
south, the Reds probed the enemy's
lines on either side of these strong
holds, in an effort to find a weak
spot for a break-through.
Fighting Russian units on the
east coast, the Nazis clung to the
Crimea, which dominates the Black
sea.

Navy, which fought through 1943
without losing a capital ship or air
craft carrier and highlighted the
year by sinking the 26,O00-ton Nazi
battleship Scharnhorst, is being
moved into the Pacific in growing
strength.
Increasing use of the Royal Navy
against the japanese was attributed
to the turn in the Atlantic war In
a review of the year by the Ad-
miralty.
The review said the number OF
Allied cargo carriers being sunk by
U-boats was below German losses
in U-boats.
Losses of the Royal Navy. which
took part in the 1866 ship armada
carrying invasion forces to Sicily
were high in 1913, but mot sc
high as in the earlier war years
Casualties, it said, were one cruiser
and an unspecified number of de-
stroyers. covettes, submarines
minesweepers and trawlers.
More than 100 enemy ships, aside
from the Scharnhorst and three de-
stroyers sunk this week, were de-
clared sunk or damaged during 1913
The review added that with the
surrender of the Italian fleet UNI
challenged domination of the Medi-
terranean had been regained, that
the use of small aircraft-borne es-
corts and the acquisition of Azores
bases had bridged the Atlantic
air-cover gap in the convoy routes
