Flynn Case
Before Senate
Decisive Vote
Expected Today

WASHINGTON, Jan. q Up
- The widely discussed nominal
ton of Edward ]. Flynn as Min
lister to Australia came before
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee (10:30 a. m, EWT)
for q decisive vote today with
indications and preponderant
Democratic membership will
give him recommendation.
The issue, however, still is
doubtful in the Senate, which
must pass on the Presidential
appointment regardless of whe-
Their the committee issues fav-
orable or unfavorable report.
The committee numbers IS
Democrats, seven Republicans,
and Robert M. LaFollette, Jr.,
Wisconsin Progressive. 1t was
generally believed that the Re-
publicans would vote almost as
a unit against the former Demo-
cratic National chairman, with
Democrats in the main support
ing him, and LaFollette's posi-
ton undisclosed.
Interest in the nomination re-
manned high in the wake of last
weeks open hearings when
Flynn took the witness chair to
defend himself against charges
of Senator Bridges GRIND that
he made gangster Dutch Schultz
a deputy sheriff and that he per-
mitted New York City owned
paving blocks to be installed
with city labor at his Carmel, N.
Y, estate.
Flynn's resignation yesterday
as Democratic National Conn.,
mitteeman from New York gain
ed him at least two Senate votes
Senators Clark (D-Mo) and
Hatch (D-NM) had warned they
would oppose Flynn's confirma-
ton unless he severed himself
from all political jobs. Both said
they were satisfied by his un-
qualified resignation.
Two committee members, Sen
ators Glass (D-Va) and john
son (R-Calif) are out Of the city,
but have the privilege of voting
today by proxy.
The vote in the Senate may
not be alogn strictly party lines.

Allies Pound
Jap Positions
Australia Renews
Cry for Offensive
by the Associated Press

Allied warplanes were credit
ed today with inflicting new
havoc on Japan's invasion armies
in Burma and the south seas,
even as Prime Minister John
Curtin of Australia appealed for
greater strength in the southwest
Pacific ito avense the men of
Corregidor."
Voicing his oft-repeated warn
ing that stronger allied forces
were needed to hold Japan in
check, Curtin declared:
Time is fighting on the side
of Japan. Time is fighting
against the United States.
THE southwest Pacific area is
too crucial to be left to a force
of caretakers."
simultaneously, dispa I c h e 5
from the New Guinea battle
front quoted Lieut.. Gen. Robert
Eichelberger, commander of
American forces in the victor
ious Papuan campaign, as de-
claring that the allied triumph
in that sector was "a slap in the
face for the Jap and the first
pushing -around of this war for
the japanese.
THE Jap was pushed around
at Milne Bay, Coma and Sanan-
anda," he said.
Where else has this happen
ed to the modern Japanese
army? He's been fighting five
years and this is the first time
he's been set down and you
can be sure he doesn't like it.

Of course, the diplomats advis-

only the real smarties held to
their fantastic theory that the
President was at the front.
As for the President being in

and as for sailing, do you think
the whole Atlantic and Pacific

AS a matter of fact, it was
plain he hadn't even left Wash

about that is Stephen Early, the
