 around Cape Torokina Tuesday and Wednesday.
 A communique set the enemy death toll at 800 since the Novem- Der 1 Marine landing and since enemy dead totaled only 300 up to November 10 it was indicated heavy fighting had taken place in recent days. The beachhead was now some four miles long. American losses totaled some 100 dead, a dispatch from Halsey's headquarters said.
 Dauntless divebombers struck at enemy positions around Jaba River, south of Torokina, on Tuesday to aid the ground forces. Three Japan csc planes were shot down during a raid on Allied shipping which cost one small vessel and some casualties.
 On the Bougainville east coast, medium bombers and fighters hit Kieta airdrome and then ranged southward, battering several objec- tives, sinking four barges and dam aging two other vessels. Three of four planes failed to return, the communique said.
 Rabaul, scene of mass assaults by Allied planes that took heavy toll of enemy shipping, was hit by Aus tralian Beaufort bomberS. They concentrated on Lakunai airdrome, two and a half miles south of the base.
 Huge Fleet
 GA Chungking radio broadcast heard by tie EGG said a huge" Japanese fleet had been seen sail- ing southward off the China coast "a possible indication the Japanese were rushing reinforcing units to the South Pacific.)
 Australian infantrymen opened an assault wipe out he Japanese at Satelberg, 10 miles northwest Of Finschhafen, captured base on New Guinea's Huon peninsula. Austral- ian venbeance dive bombers bat tered the enemys positions as the troops struck out to crush the Japanese forces which have been aemmed in for weeks.

 Changes
 "Now some of the old cartel agencies have been killed by the war. Some probably will fall with the collapse of the Axis. Others have abandoned their former poli- cies voluntarily and are now them selves speaking up for free inter change of news throughout the world"
 Baillie pointed to the achievement of the United Press in becoming the greatest worldwide distributor of news today as striking testimony to the esteem in which that organiza- tion's free and Independent methods of news gathering are held all over the world. He said that despite loss of U. P. clients in Axis and Axis dominated countries at the out break of war, the United Press for eign clientele has increased since then by 31 per cent and the U. P. now serves more foreign newspapers and radio stations than all other United States press associations combined.
 "In order to allow the press to make the most of its postwar op- portunity," Baillie continued, 'in the dissemination of news among all nations, the government encroach- mentS on free interchange of news necessitated as temporary war emergency measure must be elimin- ated immediately after the war.
 Freer News Era
 Then if the old news alliances and cartels are not revived and if other news services follow the pat tern of the United Press, gathering their news independently in each others countries, there will be, with improved transmission facilities, an era of freer news flow than the world has ever Seen.'
 Baillie attributed the original de- cision not to join any international news cartel to E. w. Scripps, the founder of the United Press. In 1912, when Roy W. Howard was president of the United Press, he re- jected a definite invitation to join the alliance. As recently as 1884, while Karl A. Bickel was president, there was still another offer made to have the U. P. como in but Bickel adhered to the basic policy and the offer was turned down. Now the humpty dumpty of the Information al news pool has fallen off the wall and it is extremely doubtful, Baillie said, whether the pieces ever can be put together again. Certainly never, if the trail blazed by the founders of the United Press as far back as 1907, is followed by all.
 Baillie paid tribute to the late Ed. L. Keen who, as general European manager of the United Press, was stalwart in the building of in- dependent American news coverage in Europe Said Baillie, every newspaper which has access to un- controlled news 1" better newspa- per because of Keens influence on independent news-gathering the world over"

 The weather was clearer over Ludwigshafen and several huge ex- plosions were observed in addition to raging fires.
 Only 32 bom5ers were lost in the two attacks and in subsidiary mine laying opera ations, a marked contrast to the 58 planes lost over Berlin August 23.
 The night offensive, coming some l2 hours after yesterdays American raid on Norway, brought the re- sumed air offensive against Axis Europe to a record pitch.

 A number of other localities fell to the Russians in adjacent sectors, where nearly 5000 Germans were killed.
 The capture of Korosten, besides facilitating the drive toward Poland, released large forces to aid Soviet troops battling desperate German counter-attacks southeast of Zh!to- mir designed to blunt the Soviet Spearheads flaming out from Kiev.
 After giving ground Wednesday, the Russians consolidated them- selves in their new lines and beat off every German attempt to gain further ground. At one point, a So- viet unit permitted enemy tanks tc cass through their lines, then opened

.M
 nng . olOe, 100000 annual flour sub- Nidy to hold down bread prices. Only 2f hours before it announced a sub- Bidy program to stabilize prices of . aive hogs in the face of heavy sea- sonal marketing.
 The once of War Information inc Hected into the subsidy picture re- port that the cost of food dropped 2 1.1 per cent during the second quar- ter of the year, brought about partly . by subsidies used in the rollback of meat and butter prices.
 Economic Pressure . Apparent economic pressures against government price control were building higher than ever," at the same time that this slight drop in living costs was registered, owl said.
 A warning that delay in passage of the eco extension, or passage of the ban on subsidies, might ul- tinately bring American agricul- ture to 30 cent wheat and 8 hogs" was sounded by President James c. Patton of the National Farmers , Union. Tn 8 letter to Rep. Wright Patman, D., Texas, subsidy sup porter, Patton said the campaign to '.1nisrepresent" the function of sub- eidies had reached a new high in the past few days.
 He charged that the current "pan- acky flow" of livestock to markets. an event that will "cost producers and consumers dearly" was the re- sut of deliberately fomented un- certainty as to future policies and 1 powers with respect to support i; prices and subsidies" Stability can | be restored by passage of the eco bill without the anti-subsidy pro- vision, he said.
 Radio Talks
 The subsidy argument also ragged over radio networks. Representa- tive Walt Horan, R., Washington, said in . radio address last night he was opposed to subsidies because CT maintain that we cannot control through subsidies one phase of the national economy without eventually controlling all phases of our na- tional life"
 Another radio speaker, Secretary | Treasurer George Meaney of the lAmerican Federation of Labor, de- clared that when Congress passed the stabilization act, 1t pledged "it- self to fight with all its strength to stave off the blight of imitation"
 The question now, he said, is whether Congress will keep its word i and vote the money necessary for victory in this important part of the war" or whether 1t would, by responding to the small minority of selfish persons who want to make a killing at the expense of 130,O00,- 900 of their fellow Americans, treat the economic stabilization act as just another scrap of paper"

tions, but had taken advantage of the lull to build up its forces to probably the geratest level since the start of the war.
 Weather permitting, the RAF and 9th U. s. Air Force appeared to have started what Prime Minister Churchill has said will be an exper- iment to determine whether Ger many can be bombed out of the war.
 (An NEG broadcast from London said certain authoritative circles there saw in the twin raids last night the beginning of an all-out blitz on German cities as prelude to land invasion of the continent).
 (In the Mediterranean theater, heavy bombers of the northwest African Air Forces again bombed Eleusis airfield, 12 miles northwest of Athens, medium bombers hit La- rissa airfield near Salonika, and other planes raided scattered targets in Italy and Jugoslaviao
 Flew 500 Miles
 The British night raiders flew 600 miles from England to smash at Berlin, whose factroies turn out explosives, locomotives, chemicals, precision instruments and other war materials and whose railways radi- ate to every nation of Europe. Nazi Admissions
 The German DNB news agency in a Berlin broadcast, said British bombers penetrated the German capital under cover of unfavorable weather, but calimed that anti-air- craft fire and NaA night fighters broke up the attack and forced the raiders to drop most of their bombs in densely-populated suburbs.
 The reference to "densely- -popu- lated suburbs may have been made to prepare the German people for large casualty tolls. Mention of suburbs also was considered signi- ficant in view of the fact that most of the capitals sprawling war indus tries are situated outside the cen- | ter
 The second big formation was guided to LudWigshafen, or the west bank of the Rhine opposite Mann- helm, by the glow of fires set the previous night.
 One of the highest priority tar gets in Germany because of its chemical plants and its railway and river communications. Ludwigshafen is the site of the I. c. Farben- industries huge Badische Anilin- werke, largest of its kind in the Reich, and other plants manufac- turing explosives, tanks, armored cars, turbines, electric motors, U- boat pumps and precision tools. Last nights was the 61st raid of the wal on Ludwigshafen.
 Split Defenses
 The dispatch of two huge forces against separate targets was be- lieved designed by Air Marshal Charles Harris, bomber command chieftain, to outwit the German de- lenders into splitting up their avail able fighter strength.
 By contrast, the Germans sent only couple of planes over south and southeast England last might Bombs were dropped at scattered points, but caused only slight dam- age and few casualties.
 The British night assaults follow ed yesterdays big daylight attack on the Kieller airdrOme, II miles northeast of Oslo, the Luftwaffe's main repair and maintenance base for Norway, by Liberators of the 9th U. s. Air Force.
 It was the second American raio in three days on Norway and re- turning crewmen said many air port buildings were hit and one column of flame shot 800 feet into the air. Nine Liberators were lost.
