French Favor
 Central Body

ALGIERS, May 27. = Formation of a French central authority and merging of the electives of Gen Henri Giraud and Gen. Charles De Gaulle are seen certain by all shades of political opinion here and De Gaulle was expected to arrive within a few days to seal the ar engagements.
 A Giraud spokesman asserted that full union, in effect, already had been achieved.
 Spokesmen for both leaders said innumerable differences between them have been settled by exchang- es of letters and that both agreed central authority should now be formed. Under Giraud's plan, each of the generals would select two men and the six together would choose three more to form an exe- cutiye committee under the pre- sent proposal.
 This committef would be the central authority of all liberated French territory and of French re- sistance on soil still in enemy hands.

STRIKERS ARE RETURNING TO
 RUBBER JOBS
ACf on RooseveIf's s Threat WaIkouf Violation of
 Mo- strike Pledge

AKRON, Ohio, May 27.-Strikine CIO unionists are struggling back to their war jobs today in three major Akron rubber companies, but only one concern has resumed nor maj production.
 The B. F. Goodrich Go. remained inactive in the face of a Presiden- tial ultimatum in what the Presi- dent described as most ''inex- cusable and shocking" the five-day stoppage which made more thar 500o0 men idle.
 The company spokesman saic that about 1000 workers, or less than half the normal force, turned out for the 6 m. shift at Good rich, and only 25 percent at Fire stone and Goodyear.
 The Goodyear spokesman declar- ed it would take "all day and a good part of tomorrow to balance up our production.2
 The General Tire Company re- ported a full working force.
 Presidents Reaction
 Acting as Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy, the Presi- dent termed the work stoppage "a fragrant violation of the no-strike pledge,
 If this strike has not ended by noon Thursday, your government will take the necessary steps to pro- tect the interests of the nation"
 Executive Boards of the United Rubber Workers locals of the Good year, Firestone and Goodrich com panies promptly adopted a resolu- tion urging immediate resumption of war work. At the same time theil Presidents made radio appeals.
 Industrial sources estimated that the loss in production of war ma terials might exceed $18,000 ,000 The Walkouts started last Saturday with the news that the War Labor Boaro had reduced to three cents an houl it's panels recommendation for ar eight-cent an hour increase.

The W ashinqton Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON (Maior Robert S. Allen on active duty)

WASHINGTON.-The clock-wor coordination of British naval and military strategists with Prim e Minister Churchill during the cur rent White House conferences IS the secret envy of U. S. naval military men.
 All day, British and American strategists confer, the British re- porting to their Prime Minister twice a day. Since Churchill has no domestic problems to worry about, he is able to give his mili- tary-naval men all the time they need.
 However, what somewhat worries U. s. strategists is the fact that the President necessarily has to give attention to certain domestic prob lems. The Ruml tax plan, for in- stance, is of vital importance to the nation, and he has had to take time to study it carefully to see whether it should be vetoed. Like wise the coal strike is a problem which cannot be sidetracked.
 As a result, some of the Presi- dents advisers fear that when he sits down with Churchill and Harry Hopkins in the evening, British strategy plans are likely to come out on top.
 Naturally there have to be clashes of opinion regarding military mat ters. It is by such clashes that the best plans are evolved. But Church i'll twice a day listens to his mili- tary-naval men, gets from them the full picture of the American viewpoint. Then in the evening he is completely prepared for counter arguments to American strategy plans advanced by the President
 Of course, the President is one of the best military and naval strategistS ever to sit in the White House. He began studying Admiral Mahans tough naval logic at the age of fl. Nevertheless, some cf our own strategists are a bit wor- ried over Winston Churchill's per- suaSiye charm.

Japs Are FigIliing win U.S.SuppIies;; Make Use
 Of Everything They Find
By JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, May 27-There really wasn't any mystery about the fact that the Tanks, barging into Mateur, found among cap- tured poodle 300 pounds of Cali fornia prunes.
 When you recall that only few weeks ago, our Army was itself retreating in Tunisia, it's not sur prising that the Nazis turned up with a few American supplies.
 But when this war is over, or maybe sooner. there will be a good story about how the Japs have fought on our supplies. A young officer recently back from the Paci- fic told of commando raid on one of the smaller islands preceding the battle for Gadalcanal The Mar ines made short work of taking over, and the Japs had very little opportunity to destroy their stores.
 Imagine the landing party's con- sternation to find case after case of soups, vegetables and meats bear ing nationally advertised United States product labels. Later they came upon the huge caches of oil and gasoline, all U. S. A. products They found trucks, typewriters machine guns, rifles and ammuni- ton, all manufactured in this coun- try, and although the radio station equipment was smashed to bits, they were convinced that it too was made here.
 Of course, this doesn't mean that American shippers have been sup plying the Japs since Pearl Har- bor That stuff probably came from Shanghai, Hongkong, Singapore Manila. Burma, etc But it does prove that the Japs are making use of everything they have been able to lay hands on
 The move to make our boys ir the military forces the best taken care-of of any in the world keeps right on.
 Rep. Jerry Voorhis, of California has dropped three bills in the hop per to give the boys additional benefits when they come back. The most important of these to most of the youngsters who have had their education interrupted is a measure which would provide grants of $500 year for up tc three years to aid ex-service men

 RELATIVELY LIGHT
Secretary of War Siimson Gives Views on Gen.
 eral Situation

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Ameri- can forces, supported by a naval bombardment and attacking Army bombers and fighters. have won foothold on the ridge south of enemy-held Chichagof Harbor of Attu Island after two days of hard fighting, the Navy reports.
 Despite ferocity of the fighting at Attu Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson reported the Ameri- can casualties are relatively light, preliminary reports indicating the Army has lost i27 men killed, S99 wounded and l18 missing
 The Navy communique today said: On May 25, U. s. naval vessel bombarded the Japanese shore in- stallations in the Chichagof area and started numerous fires.
 Army Warhawk fighters bombed the main camp in the Kiska area and hits were scored in the vicin- lty of the gun displacements and other installations.
 On May 26, all buildings in the Chichagof area, Attu, had been de- 5troyed and the right flank of the U. S. Army's southern forces, op- posed by Japanese forces, dug in Jn the ridge south of Lake Cories.
 The air support was provided by Army Liberators, heavy bomb ITS and Mitchell medium bombers They attacked the Japanese posi- tions in the Chichagof area and Army Lightning fighters assisted by strafing attacks"
 Two Jap Forces
 Discussing the situation from the communique, Secretary Stimson said it appeared the main enemy position is at the head of Chicha- gof Harbor, and is being heavily pounded by sea, air and ground lorces.
 However, the comm munique brought out, although Stimson did not develop it, the fact that the Japanese also still have a force in the area north of Lake Nicho- las, which lies south of Chichagof Harbor, about three miles away. The two enemy positions are obvi- ously isolated from each other.
 So far there is no report of any heavy American action against the force in the area south of Lake Cories which lies north of Lake Nicholas.
 Attacks on the ridge dominating the area around the head of Chi chagof Harbor began last Monday and yesterdays communique re- yealed the action was carried out by combined units of both tn e southern and northern forces on the island.
 Authorities here believe that once the high ground is taken, the Jap- anese position will entirely col lapse
 The ground overlooks the area of the village of Attu, or rather where the village was located. The village consisted of few build ings including a church.
