NORTH AFRICA,
Netp Air BLOiUs

American air forces continued to
strike telling blows at Axis North
African supply and communica-
tions lines while neutral dispatches
reported hectic preparations for a
gigantic Allied offensive in Tu-
nisia.
United States bombers, lashing
at Marshal Rommel's forces,
blasted the airdrome at Gabes and
the docks at Sousse, starting
heavy fires among buildings.
Dispatches from Algiers said
the Allies were expected to strike
from the west at the moment
Lieut.. Gen. Bernard Montgomery's
British Eighth Army resumed its
pursuit in force of the Africa
Corps. The Eighth Army was said
to be poised along the Tripolitan-
ian-Tunisian frontier, with for
ward elements reaching within
eight miles of the Mareth line, in
side Tunisia.
1t was believed the Allied pin
GERS movement was being held for
better weather or until all prepa-
rations were definitely complete.

GUADALCANAL:
american Victory

When six months of bitter war.
fare ended with the japanese
evacuation Of Guadalcanal Island
in the Solomons, the enemy's des,
perate, futile investment was es.
timated to have cost them $4,000
men, about 800 planes and con-
siderable fleet Of ships.
For the first time the tenacious
Japs were forced to give up an i'm
portant position completely, thus
paving the way-in the words of
Navy Secretary Knox-for blows
by the United States against
"some of the most important bases
Of the japanese" The enemy had
relinquished hope for a stronghold
there from which they could blast
shipping lanes to Australia.
Knox expressed the opinion that
widespread recent sea and air
activity in the Solomons might
have been "a demonstration to
cover their withdrawal" He AIDED
that "the story of the Southwest
Pacific would have been a vastly
different story for the last three
or four months had we not estab-
lished our positions in the Solo,

BATTLE FORECAST,
Over Labor Draft

There were plenty of predictions
about a rough and tumble legislar
tive battle over the draft-labor bill
designed to allow the government
to assign men between Is and 65
and women between 18 and so to
war jobs.
Now before the military affairs
committees of the house and SEN
ate, the bill was introduced by
Senator Austin (Rep., Vt.) and
Representative Wadsworth (Rep.,
N. " and is backed by the same
group of legislators who supported
the selective service act.
Controversy is expected to arise
over problems of compulsory
labor, migration Of labor, expan-
sion of the armed forces to 11,000,-
900 without relegating production
to a very minor role and over a
proposal made by some that all
labor-draftees be given free choice
as to whether or not they would
join union upon going into war
industry.

LITTLE STEEL.
Formula UpheLd

The War Labor Board reaffirns
its determination to stabilize gen.
eral wage rates at present levels
when members stood by the Little
Steel wage formula and denied
higher pay for 10000 employees
of the big Four" meat packing
companies.
Voting z to 4-the labor men,
Der dissenting-the board voted to
prevent another tragic race be-
tween prices and wages" The
formula allows increases not to ex-
ceed 15 per cent since January 1,
1941. The three unions involved
(CIO, AF of L and independently
have asked increases of from 10
to 20 cents an hour, far in excess
Of the limit.
On the heels of the WLB deei-
sion came a warning from Patrick
J. German, secretary-treasurer of
the AT of L meat cutters union,
that sporadic strikes probably will
result all over the country.

PANIC BUYING:
Held Unnecessary

AS shoe rationing went into ef-
feet wave of "panic buying" of
clothing swept some parts of the
country and immediate efforts
were extended by government of
ficials to halt this trend. Donald
Nelson, War Production Board
chairman, and Prentiss Brown,
price administrator, issued a joint
statement pointing out that no
shortage of clothing exists and no
plans have been made for its ra-
tioning.
Part Of the statement read:
"WPB has not asked OPA to un-
dertake rationing of clothing and
no machinery has been set up for
such a program I. shoe rationing
appears to have stimulated scare
buying in some parts of the
country such buying is un-
necessary"

48-HOUR WEEK:
For Industry

Approximately 100000 men
and women ultimately are ex-
pected to be released for more es-
sential work as the result of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's order establish
ing a minimum wartime work
week of 4s hours.
The order, which coincided with
a warning by James F. Byrnes, di-
rector of economic stabilization,
that the government intends to
hold wages and prices at present
levels, made it clear that workers
will be paid for all hours over 40
at time and half, as provided by
the Fair Labor Standards act. The
initial order took effect immedi-
ately in 80 designated Tabor
shortage" areas. The order will
be extended from time to time.
The shift to the 48-hour work
week by employers now working
on shorter week would result in
the necessity of releasing certain
numbers Of workers. These work
ers viii be used in other vital jobs.
Stern Program
In his speech, OES Director
Byrnes explained the 4s-hour week
ruling and listed the following pro-
gram which the government in
tends to follow:
/. No further increase in hourly
wage rates beyond those allowed
by the Little Steel formula, which
permits 15 per cent rise since
January /, 1941.
2. Draft of civilians for jobs
where they can do the most good.
8. Effective control Of food
prices and other prices influencing
the basic cost Of living.
4. Incentive payments TO farm
ers to increase basic food produc-
ton.
3. Higher taxes to close the esti-
mated 16 billion dollar gap be-
tween consumer income an avail
able goods.

PAY MARCH Is:
That's for Sure

There was still plenty of con-
fusion about what form the almost
certain "pay-as-you-go" income
tax would take but one fact stood
crystal clear through all the con-
versation and controversy - in
come tax returns for 1912 must be
filed by March Is and at least
one-quarter of the amount owed
must be payed by that time. Tax
payers were warned about this by
Randolph Paul. United States
