CAUSE-Current issue of the Ma
tons Business magazine has an ar
ticle devoted to little business. where
in it is pointed out that government
red tape instead Of lack Of contracts
was squeezing small manufacturing
plants to death. II IS noted that big
outfits can pay higher wages. and if
little fellows try TO meet the wage
bidding competition they are caught
in the Federal net. II they don't meet
the higher bid the labor is lost to
them. There is supposed to be law
to take care OF this. but government
works so slowly the direCtives come
too late TO help the little fellow.

Knox Says JaPs
Can't Get Thru

WASHINGTON, Jan. Sup
Secretary of Navy Frank Knox
said today that 80 far as my in
formation goes there have been no
jap landings of reinforcementS and
supplies on Guadalcanal in re-
cent weeks
Knox said none Of the 10 destroy
ers which were headed toward
Cuadalcanal and intercepted last
Sa urday by American air forces
and later by speedy US. torpedo
boats was able TO get through the
American defenses.
He said two OF the destroyers
were damaged severely by the all
forces, and that three others were
damaged by the Pr boats. He said
the Japs succeeded in dumping
Gums If supplies into the water
"a the hope that they would float
ashore. but that the nett morning
thc9e drums we're sunk by our All
power and PIT boats.
Knox said il was possible some
of the drums may have washed
ashore but that he had no lnior-
nation that they did.
IF any of them did get in," he

and said II OF those rescued were
women in imminent danger of mis-
treatments or death. Three more
were children.
Admiral Halsey'S headquarters
said the operation, one of the most
daring of the Pacific war. involv-
ing detaching a submarine of the
Pacific fleet from normal activi-
ties of sinking japanese ships and
sending it into shallow water to
effect the rescue under the noses
of the Japanese.
The information arrived late in
December that the party had been
unable to evacGate the island when
the Japanese occupied it last
spring, the headquarters an
nouncement said. The partys cap
ture by several hundred Jap troops
was threatened when they heard OF
the presence of white women.
Two enemy raids already had
sent the white people to the inland
protection of jungle for safety, the
announcement said.
The Navy had two methods OF
rescue to choose from: the sIbmer-
sible or airplane.
The submarine was chosen over
the plane and it put out for the
island, guided by radio messages to

Those who are inclined to see in the
assassination Of Darlan proof that
Washington policy toward him was mis-
taken must reckon with this fact: that
the most pressing problem raised by the
crime is the finding of 4 successor.
This may be easier than the finding of
n substitute for him would have been
on the day the Americans landed in Afri-
ca. There is now a possibility OF CO.
operation with the French IN Africa
which did not exist then, and this coop
GRAFTON can ultimately produce a leader
acceptable to French authorities in Arr
ca, the Fighting French forces and the
United Nations.
While Darlan stood as symbol of the
French Government. it was impossible
for many loyal but legal-minded French
officers to rally to any other French
leader Today, however, there are two
or three leaders who, through coopera-
ton with the short-lived Darlan regime
can step into his place as legitimate sue
cessors. Meanwhile, too, for many
Frenchmen in Africa the position aSSum-
ed by Darlan-and the acceptance OF
him by the United Nations-has clarified
the true relationship of France to the
Axis and to the free world
The assassination of Darlan solves
nothing, though it offers the, United
States, Britain and their allies new OPP
portunity to work out solutions OF inter-
nal differences which were bound to exist
until the nature of Darlan's role could
be ascertained. 1t should not be assum-
ed, however, that the solutions reached
tomorrow could have been achieved when
General Eisenhower landed in Africa.
