New 33-Pound 'Piat, :
Fired From Shoulder,
Can Knock Out Tanks
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-A 33-
pound infantry weapon called the
"piat," which can pierce inches of
the finest armor plate with the power
Of a 75-mm. gun, has been knocking
out German tanks and pillboxes in
Italy for some time, the British In
formation Services disclosed last
night.
This newest British tank buster,
which is not to be confused with
the famed American "bazooka," al
though its purpose Is similar, is
easily carried by one man and can
be brought into action in a few
seconds. 1t fires a az pound bomb,
but its weight is actually pounds
less than that of the old antitank
rifle.
A spring mechanism insures so
light recoil that the plat can be
fired from the shoulder. Infan-
trymen using it in that fashion,
with the forepart of the weapon
rested, have been trained to hit a
moving tank at range of 100 yards.
This weapon, called plat" from
the initials of its official name, pro
jector infantry anti-tank," can fire
a number Of bombs in quick sue
cession. With the butt placed on
the ground to give elevation, Ger
man transport, machine-gun nests
and similar targets have been
knocked out at ranges up to $50
yards.
Canadian troops. using the "piat"
in close fighting in Italy, have en-
ployed it with lethal effect, it was
disclosed, and one British division
piled up an impressive record with
it against pillboxes.
The British Ministry of Supply is
producing the new weapon in guam
tity and the Canadian department
of munitions and supply announced
last night that at least one type of
bomb will be manufactured in Can
ada. The plat already has been in
troduced into Canadian training
camps.

0PA Denied Injunction
Against Restaurant Firm

Justice T. Alan Goldsborough of
District Court has denied the Office
of Price Administration a prelim-
mary injunction against the Irving
Restaurants, Inc. described as trad
ing as Burton's, 1400 block of Irving
street NV. The OPA charged in
a suit the firm was selling meals
at above-ceiling prices.
At the same time Justice Colds
borough dissolved a temporary re-
straining order issued against the
firm on December 81, when the suit
was filed. The action leaves the
question of a permanent injunction
still pending.
The injunctions sought by the
OPA were to keep the restaurant
from any price-ceiling violations in
the future. In denying the OPA

Justice Goldsborough said: "Allega-
tions Of the motion have not been
sustained by proof"

the men said.

the men could feel the heat from its
flaming decks as it whirled crazily.
only short distance away from the
lifeboat.
The youthful sailor finds it diff
cult to explain what happened next.
Il guess it was an act of God" he
said as he related what occurred
in the next few drama packed min
utes.
I'VE drifted to within yards of
the tanker when, suddenly, we were
thrown back by the backward force
Of the propellers. The jolt nearly
threw us out of the boat. What
happened was that we had been
lucky enough to approach the whirl-
ing ship from behind the propellers.
II we had approached her from any
other direction the suction would
have forced us smack into the tank
er. Luckily 1t turned out that we
were thrown in the opposite direc-
ton OF the tanker and that saved
U.s."
During the next hour the relieved
survivors watched the flaming ship
reel into the distance.
Escape Detection.
Seaman Peake considers what
happened next an anticlimax. The
men narrowly escaped detection by
the submarine which torpedoed
them. The sub surfaced and threw
out a searchlight in an effort to
locate the survivors, but the light
fell few feet short of the boat.
Spotted soon afterward by a Navy
plane, the men were rescued AZ
hours later by Navy ship. Sea-
man Peake spent the next month
in a hospital recovering from face
and hand burns.
Though his father. Millard F.
Peake, former patent attorney, is
a lieutenant colonel stationed at
Edgewood Arsenal, Md, and a
brother is in the Army Air Forces,
young Peake unhesitatingly chose
the Navy last July a few months
after his 18th birthday.

CHICAGO, Jan. 31.-This is a
tangled tale of borrowed electric
light fuse, a $4,000 burglary and the
removal of five children to two Or
phanages.
The action opened yesterday
morning when 14-year-old Albert
Adams innocently entered a North
Side tavern to borrow a light fuse.
Wallie Klitch, tavern visitor, vol
unteered to install the device and
subsequently noted the boys four
little brothers and sisters were alone
In their apartment. Smeared with
iodine and lipstick and almost naked,
they were playing Indian.
Mr.. Klitch notified his wife, who
was visiting her sister, Mrs. Edward
Paluch. The women went to the
apartment, cleaned it and bathed
and fed the children.
The sad climax (for the Paluchs)
came when the women returned and
found Mrs. Paluch's apartment in
disarray. They awakened Mr.. Paluch,
who admitted he vaguely remem-
bered hearing noises but supposed
his wife was cleaning house. A
search showed, he told police, that

Bonds had been taken.

Monetary Conference
Expected Soon
By the Associated Press.

An early international monetary
conference appeared probable today
with indications that it would in
dorse an S8,000,000,000 American
plan for postwar currency stabili-
cation.
Arrival in Washington of Nicolai
F. Chechulin, head of a five-man
Russian staff Of monetary experts,
led to the belief the Treasury soon
would issue formal invitations to
more than two-score nations to at
tend such conference.
Mr.. Chechulin already has talked
to DR.. Harry White, Assistant Secre-
tary Of the Treasury. and author
of the so-called White Sterilization
Plan, and there were strong indi-
cations that he would throw the
weight of the Soviet delegation be-
hind the American proposal for a
stabilization fund closely tied to
gold.
1t was known that Russia, as a
large gold-producing state, favored
DR.. Whites plan more than a Brit
ish advanced idea of a clearing
union based on world trade volume.
Canada, too, has leaned strongly
toward a gold-backed stabilization
plan and Secretary Morgenthau's re-
cent assertion that there no longer
were any insurmountable differences
between the American and British
aroused speculation that Great
Britain is ready to abandon its
plan in favor of the White proposal.
In addition to monetary stabiliza-
ton, the conference also will dis
cuss an American proposal for a
$4,000, 100000 United Nations bank
for reconstruction and development.

Revenge on Prisoners

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 31.-The
Army-Navy report of japanese
atrocities may have a grave effect
on the welfare of American mis-
sionaries in Japanese prison camps,
former internee said last night.
The Rev. H. M. Griffin, home d.
rector of the China Inland Mission
Of Germantown, who returned on
the Gripsholm December 2, said
"the less said about Japanese mis-
behavior the better for present pris-
oners."
Our people were instructed BY
the State Department to remain
silent concerning their overseas ex-
perlences. Why does the Govern
ment now belatedly release this re-
port?"
The Rev. Mr.. Griffin's wife, also
former missionary, said "the re-
port was certainly connected with
the current War Bond drive"
