Newsprint Cost
AGAIN Increased

WASHINGTON, March l -
(P)-An increase of 81 ton in
the ceiling of newsprint paper,
authorized by the United States
and Canadian governments, be-
came effective today.
The increase was announced
by the Office of Price Admins
tration and the Canadian war
time prices and trade board. The
Joint statement pointed out that
newsprint is one Of the few
commodities which has not in
creased in price since the start
of the war.
Prentiss NJ. Brown, OPA chief,
said the increase was necessary
because the newsprint indus
try can no longer absorb the in
creased cost which war condi-
tons have brought about"
The cost of wood operations
and transportation both have in
creased, OPA said.

WASHINGTON, March -
Up A move to guarantee farm
ers fixed prices for their crops
gathered momentum in Congress
today as legislators struggled to
cope with the farm labor short
age without denying the Army
needed any men.
Senator George (D-Ga) pro.
posed that the Agriculture De-
partment take immediate steps,
which he said could be done
without legislation, to guaran-
tee a fair price" on food and
Der products for 1913 and 1914
as a means of stimulating pro-
duction.
Il think we ought TO fix a
floor under crops that would
guarantee a fair price for the
food and fiber we need and
abandon all thought of incentive
payments which confuse the
farmer and aren't what he
wants." George told reporters.
Some action along this line
was favored by Senator LaFol-
lette (Prog-Wis) who said hog
+ -oCuction had reached a peak
as a result of government action
fixing hog prices at relatively
high level,
LaFollette said he thought
that the inclusion of farm labor
costs in the calculation of price
ceilings, as proposed in a mea-
sure now awaiting action by the
House Rules Committee, would
hep spur production but Sena-
tor Butler (R-ND) said he
thought it was time to forget
ceiling formulas and let agricul-
tural prices themselves 60 up.
Determined to force more inn
mediate action than any which
might result from price increas-
es. Senator Bankhead (D-Ala)
sought a showdown in the Sen
ate Military Committee on his
bill to halt the induction of farm
workers into the armed forces,
measure on which he has obtain
ed the signatures Of 40 Senators
as co-authors.
Bankhead, chairman of an ap-
/ preparations sub C o m m ittee
which has investigated the man
power shortage, contends that
the Army set its sights too high

DESERT TRAINING CEN

United States Army rolled back
the curtain on its simulated Tu-
nissan war theater today, re-
vealed 30,000-square-m G
desert stage and cast of 49,
900 officers and men.
On this arid flatland, said to
be more rugged and hazardous
than Tunisia, troops of every
description are staging the first
American desert maneuVers of
1943, with emphasis on supply
and combat.
Soldiers are following the
same conditions found in the
north African front, laboring
and fighting under a broiling
sun by day and a wind-swept,
cold blackness by night. The
men carry the same amount of
equipment and use the same ra-
tons they would in campaigning
overseas.

one motorized infantry division

From Dandy we travelled over

NEW DELHI, March / - (P)
- American Army anmen were
reported today to have severely
damaged and probably sunk a
7,OO0-ton merchant ship south OF
Rangoon and inflicted wide
spread destruction on Japanese
installations at Waingmaw in
Northern Burma, one of the sup
porting bases for enemy troops
trying to push into China's Yum
nan province.
Both actions were carried out
last Saturday. a communique OF
the United States Army Air
Forces said.
At least four direct hits were
scored on the enemy merchant
ship, which was on fire and list
ing heavily when last seen, the
bulletin said.
The raid on Waingmaw was
said to have been carried out
by large force of fighter-bomb-
ers operating from bases in AS
sam province, India.
Combined bombing and STRAIT
ing attacks against warehouses
and gasoline and ammunition
dumps resulted in explosions
and fires" the communique de-
clared. "The entire town was
clouded by black smoke and re-
turning pilots reported that fires
could be seen 60 miles away"
The bulletin said it had now
been established that American
fighters which intercepted a mass
enemy raid on u. S. air bases
in Assam province Feb. Is had
shot down eight bombers and six
fighters and probably destroyed
an additional IA planes.

At the same time he empha-
sizes that he does not want to do
anything that would hamper the
war effort, although he believes
that the fight could be carried on
successfully with fewer men in
the ranks any more in fields.

port released yesterday, howev.

tie the projected size Of the

1t is ridiculous to suppose,
Green said, that the United

900 men for all of its armed
forces and still keep home front
production going at full blast.
