MEDITERRANEAN:
Warn Italy OF B0mbings

As Lieut.-Gen. Carl A. Spaatz
stated that the Allies now could OBJ
tam air supremacy in the Mediter-
lanean by concentrating their SUI
penor forces in any given locale,
the Italian people were warned that
their industrial centers would con
tlnue to be pounded as long as they
produced goods for the Axis.
Commander of the North African
air forces, General Spaatz said that
any barrier before Allied troops
could be reduced by the proper use
of full air power.
Urging Italian workers to move
with their families from factory
areas, Allied radio broadcasts de-
clared, "Our airmen will bomb your
war industries and communications
as relentlessly as they have bombed
your ports and ships during the
African campaign"
Continuing their aerial assault
Allied planes, paced by British
Wellingtons, plastered Sicily. Block
busters were dropped on Messina,
the terminal point for the ferry
from Italy, and Sicilian airdromes.
Meanwhile, Italians were reported
eyacuating the civilian population
from both Sicily and Sardinia.

PAY-AS-YOU-GO
Netc Experience

July /, 1943, will long be remem-
bered in the United States. For,
history will show that on that date,
millions Of American taxpayers will
have begun paying their income
taxes as they go instead Of waiting
till March Is Of the following year
to settle their accounts with Uncle
Sam.
Under the new as-you-go sys-
TEN, employers will deduct 20 per
cent from employees wages or sal
aries. Farmers and others who OBJ
tain income from sources other
than wages or salaries must esti-
mate their yearly earnings and
then make quarterly payments. In
all cases, payments will be made
after legal exemptions.
The pay-as-you-go law forgives
all taxes for 1912 or l943, which
ever is lower, up to $50, and 10 per
cent Of all taxes above that figure
Although a person may not have to
pay an income tax, the 3 per cent
victory tax will be deducted from

Elk Hills Deal
Worse Than
Teapot Dome
Knox Abrogates
"Give-Away' Contract

WASHINGTON, June 25 (FP)-
Navy officials went over President
Roosevelt's head last November ant
signed "give-away" contract with
Standard Oil for the operation OF
the Navy's oil reserve at Elks Hill
Cal. Brought to light by congress
sional investigators, the deal has
been abrogated by Secretary of the
Navy Frank Knox.
Assistant Attorney General Nor
man Littell told the house public
lands committee June % that the
deal between Navy and Standard
went beyond the agreements in
volved in the famous Teapot Dome
scandal of the Harding admins
tration.
Roosevelt Ordered Purchase
The President had ordered the
Navy to purchase Standard prop
erty at Elk Hills to stop any fur
ther drainage on the reserve set
aside years ago for emergency use.
He ordered the navy to negotiate
purchase based on the lowest es-
timated value of the Standard
land, plus royalties for the excess
oil obtained.
The Navy offered Standard $780,
100000 as a minimum valuation.
When Standard turned this offer
down. the Navy promptly gave the
oil company the right to take far
more than $20,000,000 worth of oil
out of the reserve in five years. In
addition, it gave Standard a mo-
nopoly on operating the reserve.
In spite of the Presidents pur-
pose-to preserve the Navy's oil
naval officials gave Standard a
contract permitting the company
to draw 1000 barrels more per day
from the reserve than before the
contract was signed.
The President is keenly interest
ed in the Elk Hills reserve. AS as
sistant secretary of the Navy, he
stayed on Capitol Hill all one night
to see that the oil was protected
against any destructive legislation

with him in breaking up the bottle
neck.
Producers, traders and millers
were brought together in the COM
mittee as Davis determined to at
tack the problem from all angles
instead of considering it piecemeal.
According to reports, the confer
ees were studying a variety of pro-
posals, chief among which was a
plan that would limit the feeding
Of hogs to certain weights, and put
the 1943 corn crop on an ALLEGATION
basis, assuring professors and
manufacturers needs first.
Other proposals studied included
the cancellation of ceiling prices on
corn; substituting farmers to release
their farm stocks, and the requisi-
tion Of terminal elevator supplies
and ALLEGATION of such supplies
among hard-pressed milling and
mixing firms.

TRUCE:
In Coal Mines

Under an agreement reached by
Secretary of the Interior Harold
Ickes and John l.. Lewis, the ma
tion's 100000 coal miners returned
to the pits to work under new
truce expiring October 81 Accord
ing to the announcement, produc-
tion will be resumed under the
terms Of the old contract, which
presumably include concessions
granted by the War Labor Board
amounting to % cents day.
The agreement followed Lewis
contention that the miners would
return to work for the government
only, which took over the supervi-
sion of the pits as result of the
first strike threat. Under arrange
ments, however, the government
named the operators to run the
mines and receive the profits.
Termination of the latest strike
left the 'portal-to-portal" pay issue
up in the air. Lewis has argued
for such pay, which represents COM
pensation to the miners for time
spent travelling to and from their
working stations. The WLB declar-
ed it had no authority to pass on
the question, suggesting court ac-
ton or decision by the fair labor
standards bureau Of the govern
ment.
Possibility that Lewis might fol-
low some such course was hinted
in the minters' statement aunounc-
ing their return to work.

Burkarf Speaks
At Labor Forum
Discusses International
UAW-CIO Program

Equal pay for similar work, one
of the points of the international
UAW-CIO program, was discussed
at the June 20 meeting of the Local
II Labor Forum at Local II head
quarters by Robert Burkart, JAW
CIO International representative
attached to the office of Regional
Director Richard Gosser.
Stating that "there is no logical
reason why women should not be
paid equitably for the work they
do, forgetting any old-establishea
idea of sex differential in pay
rates." Mr.. Burkart proceeded tc
tell the forum of many instances
where firms had attempted to jus.
tify such discrepancies in the wage
rates Of men and women by ana
tomical comparisons between the
two sexes.
Thinks Plants Might Move
Mr.. Burkart asked why a drill
press operator in Cincinnati should
receive less wages for his work
than drill press operator in To.
ledo when both were turning out
the same amount of work. He
stated that he believed that if this
were the practice after the war that
firms might move south to escape
the higher wages of the north.
A question and answer period
followed the talk and the audience
participated in a general discussion
regarding discrimination against
female and colored workers, ap-
prentices and learners in several Of
the industrial plants within the
area.
