OUR DUTY

OUR DUTY
Behind the campaign which is being conducted
by labor unions all over the country to get their
members to register and vote, is the knowledge
that unless the workers themselves take an inter-

reducing high blood pressure by cutting appropriate
nerves, and who distinguished himself during the
last war by his remarkable studies of wounds-but a
research scientist and philosopher.
So restless an imagination could not remain con-

THE SCOURGE OF WAR

THE SCOURGE OF WAX
The President also went into
considerable detail regarding the
morale of American troops, which
he observed to be excellent in the
North African war zone. However.
he said he was worried" over the
manner in which our troops were
exposed to umdraped native women
in the various parts of Africa, es-
pecially Liberia.
He praised the efficiency of the
Medical Corps in dealing with
venereal disease, but expressed con-
Germ over its prevalence and said
it might be necessary to limit the
liberty of overseas troops for the
sake of their health. This same
problem, he reported, also existed
among u S. troops in Sou h

now however the italian people understand what
it's all about.
Mussolini denied there were cries for peace
among his peope-because they were widespread. He
said the people would fight to the end because he
knew they were ready to quit. He urged all who
could to get out of the cities sanctoning what

Above all, he urged the Italians to hate the

INSIDE GERMANY

I'VE know that Italy already has
been torn by serious internal dis
orders brought on by distrust of
Mussolini's leadership" the Presi-
dent said. He added that although
he could give no accurate report
on the condition in Germany, his
personal belief was that Germany
would suffer repetition of what
happened in the last war. When
German morale does collapse, he
said, the whole thing will collapse
quickly.
The President also touched brief
lv upon possible strategy for a new
attack against Hitler which had
been discussed with Churchill, and
which obviously remains military
secret.
On the whole he gave a realistic
hut encouraging report on the
Atlantic-African war picture.

that unions are meeting their grow

tutionS."
Attorney General Biddle told the
convention one reason labor has
responded so fundamentally to the
war effort" was because the public
had accepted the labor union as a
public institution and "as normal as
the school or the church."
Mr.. Biddle urged the unions to
carry on the American tradition
and not permit themselves to be
used for outside suversive purposes. -
Most Americans believe that if
democracy is to be conserved in the
postwar period, labor unions must be
strengthened" he said, but the
unions themselves must be demo-
cratic and their leadership must be
based on acceptance of their leaders
by the rank and file in labor

ton stating vigorous and bitter op-

Clashes Near Mubo
May Be Renewal Of
New Guinea Fiqhtinu
jap and Allied Patrols
Battle on Jungle Trolls
Below SuIumuuu

| BY the Associated Press.
ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN
AUSTRALIA, May 12.-Jungle trails
now are astir with clashes of Jap
anese and Allied patrols below Sala-
maua, New Guinea, a possible prel-
! ude to renewal of the land fighting
which subsidized in January after the
Allies conquered Buna.
Salamaua, on a one-mile isthmus
extending into the Huon Gulf, is the
first Japanese base of Importance
on the New Guinea northeast coast
above Buna, $50 miles distant. To
the south of the town is a good air
drOme, once the starting point for
the amazing air ferry service over
the mountains to New Guinea'S gold
fields.
Clashes Intensified.
TOday'S communicate from head
quarters of Gen. Douglas Macarthur
reported intensified clashes are oc-
curing between small advanced
ground elements in the Greens Hill
area" of Mubo, which is only II
miles south of Salamaua. A spokes-
man elaborated, saying that yester-
day an Australian detachment was
| surrounded for time, but broke
through the japanese ring.
An Allied threat to Salamaua has
/ been growing since the Japanese
were defeated decisively at Wau, 35
miles southwest, on February II, and
two days later started a retreat
toward Mubo. April 27 it was dis
closed that Allied troops, mostly
Australians. who went over the jun
gle track from Wau were looking
down from ridge tops on Mubo and
its airfield. Then on May it was
announced the Allies had seized the
village of BObdubi, only miles
southwest of Salamaua, threatening
to cut the enemy's supply lines to
Mubo.
Raked by Allied Planes.
JapanS precarlOus position around
Mubo has been rendered worse over
a period of more than month by
loW-fiying Allied attack planes which
( have made as many as 40 passes in
one day to rake enemy positions
with machine-gun and cannon fire.
Allied air power also has weakened
Japan's grip on Salamaua itself by
pouncing on ship conveys bringing
men and supplies.
Today's communique reported that
Flying Fortresses, roaring over the
volcano land of North New Britain,
had started huge fires with their
bombs on Vunakanaua Airdrome at
Rabaul. Smaller fires in the dis
persal areas indicated burning
planes.
Yesterday the japanese, in their
third straight day of small-scale
raidlng, sent nine bombers against
Allied-held Merauke on the south
coast of Dutch New Guinea. The

and casualties.
