LIMON TAKEN AND JAP FIRST DIV DESTROYED

GEN. MacARTHUR'S HEAD QUARTERS, P.I. Nov. A. -(AP) Rain pounded the American in- fantrymen as they stormed and took the Japanese bastion of Li- mon in a sudden upsurge in battle which practically the en- emy's First Division, the commun- ique stated.
 Headquarters reported today that the ertire 32nd Division plunged through shell sheltered Limon Wednesday, in the biggest advance in more than two weeks.
 The full length of the Yana- shita line which the Japanese had depended on to defend their toe hold on Leyte, is in danger of be- ing rolled-up.
 The communique added that heavy rains continued to lash the battlefronts as Yankee infantry men drove through the mountains and villages to the naerby Leyte river.
 General Macarthur had identi- fled Limon as the apparent site for the major Japanese defensive battle to protect the vital Ormoc corridor. The capture of the town means the Nipponese have lost their critical defense line

b-29'S HIT
MOST SERIOUS CABINET CRISIS IN 20 YEARS

OTTAWA, Canada, Nov. 24. - (AP)-Prime Minister Mackenzie King, struggled to hold his Can adian government together in the l most serious cabinet crisis in twenty years. Parliament was aroused over the anticipated anti conscription demonstration in the French speaking province of Quebec.
 The disturbances were remin- iscent of the rioting during the last war.
 The trouble broke out last night after the government had ann- ounced that it would adopt par tial conscription measure to meet the urgent need for reinforce Inents on the Western Front.
 Youths in their late teens and early twenties paraded by hum dreds, paraded through the Que bee streets, shouting against con- scription.
 The crowds smashed windows in the English Language chron- icle. building, and stormed the Army recruiting office.
 Police prevented their entry in to any of the buildings.
 Prime Minister Kings liberal party seems to be crumbling un- der the impact of conscription. as half of the 60 odd liberal mem bers from Quebec are reported to be planning to withdraw their support to the government.
 One Cabinet member of the Quebec English speaking Air Min istry in power has already resign ed.
 Prime Minister King declared last night that he will seek to avoid general election this time but it appears that things are } moving too fast for him to dic- tate acourse on the governments new policy.

Raps British Policy
In Handling Greece

The present British policy ir
Greece, If continued, will cause the
prolongation Of the war and con.
tribute to the deterioration of the
moral basis Of the common struggle
against Hitler" George c. vournas
Washington lawyer and supreme
president of the Order of Ahepa
(American Hellenic Educational
Progressive Association, declared In
statement today.
He called on IAN aroused Amer
ican public opinion" to force Col
Blimps and other imperialists OF
Great Britain to abandon their pol
icy" and to raise their voices
against this blatant rape of Greece -
Mr.. Vournas declared the situa-
ton in Greece which ION the surface
appears to be an internal political
squabble, in reality is the applica-
ton OF imperialistic and power pol
itics." He accused Britain of subor-
dinating war interests to imperia-
istic policies and declared "the At
lantic Charter and every noble pro-
nouncement by Allied leaders in this
war are empty phrases when exam
ined in the light OF developments
in Greece"
"Her people must be allowed the
right to choose their leaders and to
adopt whatever form of government
they desire. They deserve assistance
not oppression. They must be fur
nished with food, clothing and medi-
cal supplies. Their ports, highways
and communications which were de-
stroyed either by enemy or Allied
action must be restored. American
lease-lend must be given to them di-
rect and all assistance must be dis
associated from political considera-
tions," the statement said.
Unless American influence and
prestige are brought to bear in that
part of the world, lives of innocent
persons will be further sacrificed
and the Allied cause will suffer i'm
measurably throughout the world.
The Greek people, who have given
the world the Olympian message, 1T
is better to die on our feet than to
live on our knees have the right to
self-determination," he said.
Mr.. Vournas recently received his
honorable discharge from the Army,
in which he served as a major.

Heavy Trucks Top Need. j.
Earlier, at press breakfast, Gen
Somervell and WPB Chairman J. A
Krug emphasized that war produc.
ton would remain the country's
No. / job until fighting stops.
Heavy trucks, Mr.. Krug said, are
high on the list of essential items
He estimated that in peacetime the
Nation produced about $500 such
vehicles a year and said present
goals are above 5000 month. Pro-
duction now is running only about
g, TOO a month.
Gen. Somervell said, in answer to
comment by Robert Gaylord, NAM
president:
II don't know of any plant where,
II management puts on the neat, we
can't increase production or 10
per cent"
Such an increase, he added, would
end today's shortages.
Mr.. Krug, discussing reconversion,
said, unfortunately every time such
plans are talked about people get
the idea the war is about over. That
just isn't so, but we do have to
make plans for some indefinite day
when it will be over. We want to
have jobs for returning soldiers and
other men after the war;
Mr.. Gaylord, commenting on Gen.

declared:
IF the armed services will just
tell us what they want, well get the
stuff Off"
OF manpower needs, Mr.. Krug
said that while there are 1,000, 900
fewer men working today than a

one wind tunnel at Langley Field
Va, has been devoted to tests on

Rear Admiral w. A. Kits of the
Navy Bureau of Ordnance told the
committee some rockets are in CON-
bat service now and $4,000, 900 is
needed Immediately to increase the
output of these weapons.
The Navy produces rockets for all
branches of the armed services, he
testified, and requests from the
Army for stepped-up production
makes necessary the increased plant
facilities.
In addition to the new money for
the Navy. the Appropriations Com
mlttee recommended that the serv-
ices be allowed to use $50, ,500, 900 OF
surplus funds now available. Most
OF the Nays funds were set aside
for the Bureau of Yards and Docks.
Also approved were number OF
items, aggregating s17,559, 900, for
the collection of statistics to be
available to Government and busi-
ness for programming and promot-
Ing postwar readjustment.
The committee struck from the
measure, but without preventing its
future consideration, a budget esti-
mate of $75,0O0,0O0 for preparing
plans for $1,500, 900 900 OF construc-
ton work in cooperation with State
governments. The committee said it
believed contacts should be made
with the States concerning tl.eir
plans before an initial appropriation
Is made.
For the construction and opera
tion of hospital and domiciliary
facilities for the use of returning
war veterans, the committee voted
the Veterans Administration $10,-
ST. 900 to augment funds provided
earlier this year for that purpose.
1t eliminated a $4,000 item for
expenses for the next six months OF
United States participation in the
United Nations Commission for the
Investigation of War Crimes.
"Conceivably," the COMMITTEES
commented, "by We day there may
be need for an Independent agency
to join again in such an investi-
CATION"
The activity eliminated had been
financed out of the Presidents S emer-
gency fund, which no longer may be
