WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Wher

recently that. Generalissimo Chi,
anly Kai-shek had recalled his
military mission to the Unlteo
States because we were transfer
ring war materials in India des'
tined for China to the British
the debunkers went to WORK
again.
This is a story that might well
have started on Axis Short-Wave
stations.
Let's examine the facts. It's
true:
% That the Chinese military
commission has started for home
(but it's going to take a leiSurely
iunket through training center:
and war plants and probably
will not actually be on its way
for six weeks yeti;
~ That the GeneralissimC
isn't happy about aid to Russia
Prime Minister Curtin happy
about what is being done to clear
I'D his Australian area; nor the
NorwegianS, Dutch, Belgians
Greeks, etc, happy that WI
haven't opened a big second from
on their frontiers).
81 There is no longer any
open road to China. The only pos
sible way we can get any sup
plies to them Immediately is BY
plane. The only way we can ge
heavy supplies to them soon il
by reopening the Burma Road
The only way we can reopen thu
Burma Road is by giving Gener
al Wavelrs Omitted Nations-no
British" forces in India all thu
heavy supplies that we possibl!
can ship there.

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 5.-Some-
body out at Republic had revolu-
tionary idea. They'd make series
of pictures without a singing cow
boy, by cracky. They'd make 'em
with a singing cowgirl.
When l heard that, got my boss
and went jingle-jangle-jingle
over the pass to see. That's how
come I'm reporting today on Miss
Anne Jeffreys, a North Carolina
girl who always wanted to sing
in opera and has made the grade
in the boss variety.
Its a start" she said, "even il
it's horse opera If make enough
money in pictures, I'm going to
take five years off and study and
work like mad, and try for the
Met. You don't have to be so young
to sing opera. You can even be
35." (Huh }
1t was disappointing, sort of
that Miss Anne the Singing Cow
girl wasn't logged out in her hid

beautiful blonde, blue-eyed, and
looked more like a glammer-gaI

a fancy green dress and a ful

Just turned 20, Anne has been
singing since she was one year
old, was on the air at 10, and left
high school for New York to study
for opera. She won a scholarship

he believed it would be helpful

American troops have occupied

tlons, it was announced today.
"A dispatch from the Tunisian
front from holland Norgaard. As
soclated Press war correspondent,
said United States infantry re-
occupied positions east of FL
Guetar, thus restoring their posi-
ton to a rough approximation of
that of two months ago.
Forward elements from the COM
mand of 1t. Gen. George S. Patton,
il, entered the town after its aban-
donment by the enemy, a COM
munique said.
The soldiers often were Wading
through water in the muddy gullies
to press the advantage gained in
the recOnquest of the Gafsa area.
In the northern sector British 1st
Army troops withdrew last night
from the mining village of Tamera
/ to new positions three miles to the
southwest, where they repulsed two
| German infantry attacks. Tamera
itself lies seven miles west of a
former British base at Sedjenane
and As miles southwest of Bizerte
the Axis-held naval base.
tOf this action the German
high command communique,
broadcast from Berlin and re-
corded by the Associated Press,
said that on the Northwestern
Tunlslan front an Axis local
offensive enterprise is progressing
favorably.D
The renewal of activities of the
force under Gen. Patton, which in
cludes the 1st United States Ar
mored Division and the 1st and 34th
Infantry Divisions, was accepted by
| military observers here as new evi-
dence of the Allied determination
TO clean up enemy holdings in
TuniSia.
The communique said the British
9th Army, under Gen. B. L. Mont
gomery, continued normal patrol
activity which resulted in slight
local adjustments in the Mareth
Line zone.
