morning. Robert Moore, a Detroit
deputy, asked if a sheriff would be
liable to civil suit for false arrest,
if the time element caused a pris-
oner to be released. William S. Sou
ter of Cedar Point, Ohio, the presi-
dent, felt that such a liability might
be incurred.
Resolution Adopted.
The association adopted resolu-
ton declaring that the McNabb de-
cision has resulted in other mis-
carriages of Justice" and urging
Congress and the State Legislatures
to adopt a uniform arrest law to
clear up "the general uncertainty"

and protecting the society which
they serve, on the other" the reso-
luton said.
Henry A. SchWeinhaut, special as
sistant to the Attorney General who
told of the difficulties the Govern
ment is encountering in criminal
prosecutions as the result of the
decision, brought out that the Su-
preme Court had concluded errone-
ously that the men had not been
arraigned for some time after their
arrest. Actually. he said, they were
arraigned on a liquor charge within
few hours, and consequently were
properly in custody when their con-
fessions were made The trial court
took cognizance of this fact when the

Mitchell Case Appeal Planned.
Mr.. SchWelnhaut said the Govern
ment plans an appeal in the case of
James P Mitchell, so-called society
burglar" whose conviction was re-
versed by the Court of Appeals here
on the basis of the McNabb decision.
Mr.. Schweinhaut added this case is
mot too good for an appeal, but the
Government is anxious to get more
lioht on the Supreme Courts views.
He said he did not believe that the
McNabb rule is going to be as harsh
and absolute as some of the Federal
courts seem to think now it will"
He recalled that the McNabb deci-
sion had been responsible for the
Government losing another case
here this past week. when Justice
Pine directed an acquittal verdict for
Haywood Wilborn, II, charged with
housebreaking and attempted GRIM
inal assault, because the youth had
been held by the police seven and
one-half hours before arraignment.
Mr. SchWeinhaut cited several
other reverses encountered by the
Government on like grounds in the
wake of the McNabb case, notably
where the charges included esp;o-
mage and treason He also warned
the sheriffs that "by implica ticn, -"
State courts we're invited to follow

Americans Still Extending
BouqoinviIIe Beochheod

WITH UNITED STATES FORCES
ON BOUGAINVILLE, Solomons,
Nov II Delayed Marines
continue to extend their beachhead
lines satisfactorily on Bougainville
Island, where they have killed eight
japanese for every American lost.
Up to last night 3l2 japanese
dead had been counted. Many more
japanese boGies are believed to be
still concealed in the jungle, particu-
larly around the village of Piva
Only seven Japanese have been
taken prisoner.
Enemy losses compared with 107
marines killed, 81 missing and 405
injured. One hundred and fifty
wounded were evacuated today.
Most of the American casualties
were suffered during the November
l landing on Empress Augusta Bay
in two fights in the Piva region and
in battle around lagoon at the
northern end of the lines.
American forces lost their first
ship in the Bougainville operation
last night. Six japanese torpedo
planes attacked troop convoy
bringing reinforcement and sank
one small vessel with a single hit.
(Tokio radio has made daily
claims of sinking American ships
n the area, including battleships,
aircraft carriers, cruisers and de-
stroyers. The loss of small ship
at Bougainville with some cas-
ualties" was announced in Gen.
MacArthur's November 10 COM
munique)
The ship sank in 10 minutes. All but
a few of the men aboard were rescued
by destroyers which shot down three
or four of the six attacking planes.
The men were in the water for an
hour and a half. The exact number
of casualties is not yet known.
Almost constant ar raid alarms at
night and in the early morning have
furnished the only interruption in
the last few days to extending the
beachhead.

noted that some were travelling al
most empty due to discintinuance
by the Arnold Line of efforts to op-
crate the shuttle bus service.
A Capital Transit spokesman said
that unless the strike is ended dur

will be placed on the Rosslyn line
again during this afternoons rush

BY 9 a m. observers reported that
motorists were lending a helping

their jobs, and others took the day
off, it was learned.
When the drivers of three early

The company attempted only to

Commuters who We're late ir

faced the possibility of having tc

their Arlington area homes tonight.
Approximately one-fourth of the
25 persons interviewed at bus stops
in the county said they would not
go to work because they would not
be able to get home in the after
noon.
A survey at many bus stops showed
few persons waiting, a fact lending
eloquent testimony to the manner
in which automobile owners met the
emergency. Delays which were ex-
perienced by thousands in reaching
their places of work were due largely
to the limited passenger capacity ol
privately owned cars rather thar
unwillingness to pick up passengers
More than 200 persons collected al

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. l9.-Dis-
trict Judge Harry E. Kalodner re-
fused yesterday to permit the Fed
eral Government to extradite Francis
j. Sirchie, head of Philadelphia
fingerprinting firm, to Washington

porting Miss Margaret Resign Smell,
%, of Wichita, Kans., from Phila-
delphia to Washington where, &C
cording to testimony. he married her
in June, 1912, although he already

Southern Liberals
Should Support Him,
Wi|Ikie Declares
Ey the Associated Press.


ATLANTA, Nov. l9-Wendell L.
Willkie, stopping briefly in Atlanta
today on speaking trip to Texas,
described himself as representing
the viewpoint of the liberal leaders
as we'll as any man actively dis
cussed for President"
Il can't understand why any lib
eral in the South can't support me"
Mr.. Willkie told group that
crowded around him as he walked
through Terminal Station with
Georgias Republican national COM
mitteeman and committeewoman
Wilson Williams, Atlanta, and Mrs
Bertha M. Field, Marietta.
Mr.. Williams and Mrs. Field issued
joint statement criticizing Re-
publican 'reactionaries" and assert
ing that "Southerners will join the
Republican party If Southern
Republicans will make an attempt
to throw off the yoke which has
been fastened upon them by few
national BOSSES" The statement
said such bosses" wanted to keen
the Southern party small in order
to control it.
Will Stop at New Orleans.
Mr.. Willkie, 1910 Republican
standard bearer, has not formally
announced a campaign for the 1914
nomination but has said he would
accept the nomination. Declining
comment today on international af-
fairs, he indicated a political pur-
pose in his current activities with
the assertion that he could COM
ment on the Southern political out
look better after I get back from
this trip"
He will stop at New Orleans to-
morrow and will go from there to
Houston and Dallas. He is sched-
uled to speak at Dallas next Fri
day.
Mr.. Willkie said he would not
speak at New Orleans although a
New Orleans announcement had
said he would speak at a football
game Saturday. He said he planned
to return to New York from Texas.
No Comment on Bricker.
Mr.. Willkie said he had not seen
an Office of War Information an
nouncement that it would not
broadcast or send printed material
about forthcoming political CAM
palgns to troops overseas.
L had assumed" he commented
the soldiers would get the normal
American political news. I assume
American soldiers are American
citizens and will make up their
minds about voting as normal
Americans"
Asked about the presidential drive
for Gov. Bricker OF Ohio, Mr.. Willkie
replied. L never talk about the

Subsidies

the Reconstruction Finance Corp.
will provide the funds for the sub
sidy payments. He estimated the
OUTLAWS would total between eight
and ten million dollars a month.
Under the plan wheat flour mill
ers will pay as high as parity prices
for wheat, should the market reach
that level. and at the same time
continue to sell -four for no more
than the ceiling prices now in ef-
feet. The subsidy is expected to be
approximately IA cents a bushel.
The date on which payments will
become effective will be announced
later, Mr. Vinson said.
Both Appeal to Public.
Whether the administration can
get enough grass roots backing to
sustain Mr.. Roosevelt's expected veto
of the subsidy prohibition is a mat
ter Of conjecture. The antisubsidy
group indicated an interest in the
same strategy. however, whensRep-
resentative Horan, Republican, OF
Washington in a radio speech last
night also bid for public support
He said continued subsidization
would mean Government control OF
agriculture and eventually AL
phases of our national life"
The political aspects of the con-
troversy have been raised again and
again by the subsidy group in an
effort to split the bloc formed by the
nearly solid Republican minority
plus a substantial group of Demo
cratic lawmakers from farm States
From Representative Patman
Democrat, of Texas came the charge
that the Republicans themselves
really do not want to see subsidies
outlawed, that they are backing the
bill in an effort to win farmer sup
port in next years presidential cleo
tions and that they are privately
hoping that veto will be upheld.
The Republicans left the answer
to one Of Mr. Patman's Democratic
colleagues-Chairman Steagall of
the House Banking Committee, who
suggested that some of my friends
on my side of the aisle" talk over
their stand with the folks back
home" and reconsider lin view of
1914"
Despite the indications of over
Whelming defeat, administration fol-
lowers battled in the House yester-
day to save at least part OF the pro-
gram.
IF this law passes. imitation must
come!" shouted Majority Leader
Mccormack, land the fault will lie
with those members who vote for it.
I hope some kind of compromise
can be brought about
Fears Public Outcry.
With subsidies gone, he said, the
Presidents effort to hold the cost
of living to the level of September
1912, will collapse.
The public, slumbering now, will
wake up then and their voices of
protest will be heard afar," Mr.. Nc
Cormack continued. IF this bill
passes, the people might as well
know now that initiation is here
The result is inevitable"
The legislation before the House
is a double-barreled bill to extend
the life of the Commodity Credit
Corp, which finances much of the
Governments farm program, and tc
ban the use of subsidies after Janu-
larry /.

Continued Subsidies
Under CCC Program
by the Associated Press,

by the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. 19.-While Con-
gress debated the issue of prohibit
ing subsidy payments, War Food
Administrator Marvin Jones urged
today continuation of use of Com
modify Credit Corp. funds for this
purpose in 1914, rather than "aban-
doning something we have for some
thing that may look better"
Support prices are needed by the
farmer to meet production goals,
Mr.. Jones told the Illinois Agricul-
tural Association.
I'VE all are working toward the
same objective on the problem of
preventing infiation," the admins
traitor said. Naturally there are
differences of opinion as to the
methods we should use.
"The use of Commodity Credit
Corp. funds helped to get our record
food production this year. 1t proved
successful. 1t worked. We want to
continue 1t for 1914"
Mr.. Jones said the VIA is insist
ing on all possible ALLEGATION of steel
for farm machinery for the remain
der of this year and for 1914.
Farm machinery production for
the year beginning July l, 1943,"
Mr.. Jones stated, will be at the rate
OF 80 per cent of the high production
OF farm machinery for the year
1910. This was second only to the
production in 1887, which was the
highest of many years The big
production in those two years pro-
vided fortunate backlog of supply
to help meet the situation of the
past year or two when agriculture
had to share the Nations steel sup
ply with Others"
Schedules for industries compared
with the production for 1894
Mr.. Jones said, include dairy ma
chinery, ia per cent; canning ma
chinery, 1l6 per cent; cereal manu-
featuring equipment, IS per cent; oil
extraction equipment, SO per cent,
and fish processing equipment, lit
