Washington, July 13.-UP)-Sec-
rotary of Navy Frank Knox warned
today that it would be "the worst
kind of folly" to assume from re-
cent good reports that the Atlantic
submarine war is won.
IT haven't a doubt but what it
will break out again." Knox said al
a press conference.
1T is utterly erroneous to assume
that the submarine war is over
Well have troubles with submarines
probably right up to the end OF the
war in greater or less degree
THE maximum to be said with
safety is taht we've reduced the
sinking of Allied ships materially
Knox was questioned on rumors
that the powerful Japanese naval
base at Paramushiru in the Kuriles
had been bombed by American
planes from Attu.
There is nothing I can talk
about" he replied.
He would not deny or affirm"
the rumors which were heard here
yesterday.
Knox said he found during his
recent 5000 mile trip to the west
and Gulf coasts that Navy estab-
lishments were all running at top
pace"
The most serious problem in these
areas is getting civilian employees 10
work in Navy establishments, he
said. Due to a campaign, how
ever, this manpower shortage is
being materially reduced, Knox said,
The secretary said that he was
amazed at the civilian morale in
the mol Invest.
Knox said the northwest section
of the United Sttaes is less fearful

it was during his former visits.

Washington, July 13-(UP)-War
Food Administrator Marvin Jones
today announced a 1914 -arm pro-
gram calling for an increase of 49,
100000 acres in crops and empha-
sizing meat, egg and dairy produc-
ton.
Jones' goal of 380,OoOoOo acres for
next year will be the largest ever
put to crops by American farmers,
exceeding the previous peak of 362,-
100000 acres in 1882.
Jones appealed to farmers to put
every crop acre and every farming
facility" to the most productive use,
but warned against blowing up land
which should be kept in grass. He
indicated that it would not be neces-
sary to repeat the errors of World
War I days when vast areas OF the
great plains were plowed up only to
become dust bowls" in the next
decade.
A specific goal of 100000 acres
of wheat was announced, $4,000
900 acres more than this year. Other
crop goals will be announced later.
Most of the wheat increase request
ed is in the great plains states, but
Jones added:
Our planted acreage of food
crops can be expanded without
blowing up land which should be
kept in grass if we use the crop
land which has been idle during re-
cent years and if we speed up the
cycle of crop rotation on some
farms.
THE program recognizes that
demands for feed will be imperative
for several years and that sound
practices must be followed to insure
highest possible yields over period
of years" ~

Supplies To

BY JEWEL SPANGLER

Washington, July 13-(UP)-The
War Production Boards Office of
Civilian Requirements believes
stocks of civilian supplies will hit
a dangerously low point" by No
vember and will ask for more mate
rails for the last quarter of this
year to replenish necessary items, it
was learned today.
Christmas will be a lean one this
year, a high OCR official said, un-
less steps are taken now. He said
that retail inventories already are
depleted to, and in some instances
are below. the danger point.
The civilian requirements dlvl-
sion is formulating program Tor
the manufacture of sufficient guam
titles of civilian supplies to bring
back stocks of needed items closer
to normal. 1t may be ready for pres
entation to War Mobilization d.
rector James F. Byrnes next week.
The ACR spokesman admitted
that the program would run into
strong military opposition, but add
ed that the OCR is planning to de-
fend its position-that civilians need
certain items to keep up morale and
efficiency,
1--WE are asking for more for the
last quarter of this year than is now
being manufactured" the official
said. "And we are particularly ask
ing that personal items-the per-
picking. miserable little things that
can upset civilians when missing
be manufactured in quantities that
will take care OF demand"
The trend that the OCR hopes to
follow will be TO get the smaller but
necessary things for civilians-and
cut down on larger items that con-
sumo more material. Rationing OF
some of the larger items, which the

Armored Battle May
Decide Sicily's Fate
BY HARRISON SALISBURY
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent

London, July 13.-(UP)-The fate
of Sicily is likely to be decided by
an armored battle which may break
out within 48 hours.
The early Allied reports on the
invasion said the Axis had not COM
mitted it's mobile reserve striking
force, which was believed to COM
prise possibly one German panzer
division and several Italian armor-
ed brigades.
If and When the Allies crush the
Axis mobile forces, it is believed
the battle of Sicily will be over to
all intents and purposes.
Allied communicates and reports
from correspondents did not specify
the whereabouts of the Axis mobile
forces. From the topography of the
island, it was believed likely that
they were being held in the vicin-
ity of Caltanissetta, about 30 miles
north of Licata.
Caltanissetta is linked by Sicily's
only east-west railroad to Catania
on the east coast, which makes
possible quick transfer of Axis
armor between threatened points on
the south and east coasts.
Axis as well as Allied reports
make little or no mention of Allied
armored forces. which suggests that
the Allied high command may be
holding off armored units in order
to land them in whatever locality
the Germans commit their panzers
to fight.
One of the most likely armored
backgrounds would be the plain
of Licata lying north of Licata
and Celia where the Americans
established a beachhead The only
other relatively fat terrain where
armor could maneuver with ease
is the plain of Catania Just west
of that big east coast port,

front today. presumably because of
losses ranging up to $4,000 men and
1922 tanks in seven days, and the

it was becoming clear that the Axis
summer offensive has failed.
Though the Germans continued
to hurl reinforcements against the
