More than 1850 Allied war
planes, including $500 u. S. heavy

CROP WASTE FEARED

Exports pointed out that sugar
is not essential TO the canning
OF peaches. However. housewives
were loathe To accept this view,
with the result that great waste
is threatened. Since more sugar
is required for the making OF
grape preserves, the grape crop
situation was held to be more
serious.
Peterson said the sugar beet
harvest Will not get under way
until October, and added that the
crop will be less than the 1,0C0,-
000-bag yield of 1913. The normal
yield is 100000 bags.
Wholesalers and government
agency representatives expressed
hope that excess stocks held by
Gamers who have completed their
seasons work can be attached.
Fitzgerald said many Gamers held
surplus stocks over from year TO
year.
eff we can reach these can
ners and point out the serious
ness of the situation we may
be able to stave off the bulk of
the shortage" Peterson said.

At present, the meeting was
told, only $4,000 bags, a Today
supply is in sight.
Michigan agricultural authori-
ties indicated that much of Michi-
gan's peach and grape crops Will
be wasted unless the sugar short
age is relieved. Bakeries have
greatly reduced sugar supplies,
the meeting was told.
w. E. Fitzgerald, district OPA
director. declared that a man
power shortage in refineries
brought on the crisis. In addition,
the committee said in its appeal TO
congressman, that labor short
age in the East was holding up

WITH U. S. MARINES ON WILL
LAUMEz PENINSULA, New Brit
ain, March 8. (UP)-Marines who
made daring jump up the north
ern coast of New Britain have cut
through the narrow neck of Will
laumez peninsula and fought Gown
the eastern side toward Talasea
village and airdrome, only ITO miles
west Of the japanese bastion of
Rabaul.
The veterans of Guadalcanal,
Tulagi and Cape Gloucester quick
ly accomplished their initial objec-
tives against small japanese ga:-
riSon.
The enemy fought doggedly from
pillboXes against the amphibious
lancing which put the American
forces ashore So miles beyond their
previous positions on New Britain.
The Japanese subjected the marine
beachhead to mortar and machine
gun fire during the entire first day
of the operation.
The landing was one of the most
hazardous yet made in the south
west Pacific, and fighting began
as soon as the marines hit the
beach.
The landing on Willaumez PEN
insula, which points like a long
finger north from New Britain,
placed the Americans 11O miles
east of Cape Gloucester and almost
half way to Rabaul.
