FTeSloent Roosevelt, implying q
defense of the Governments plan
for building a pipeline to carry
Saudi Arabian oil to the Eastern
Mediterranean, told his news con-
ference today that the United
States does not have unlimited Pc
troleum reserves. and that the coun-
try will need oil from the outside
after the war and perhaps during it.
The President said the pipeline
project could not be made a political
issue. Some criticism, led by Sena-
tor Moore, Republican, OF Oklahoma,
has arisen in Congress. A special
Senate subcommittee will open hear
ings next Tuesday on a resolution
calling for the liquidation Of the
Petroleum Reserves Corp. which is
negotiating for the pipelines con-
struction.
Mr.. Roosevelt declared that some
persons say United States reserves
will last from is to 20 years, while
others figure the American re-
sources are good for 25 to 80 years.
At any rate. he added, they are not
unlimited. We have so much oil in
the ground, and it is being taken
out at such and such a rate, the
Chief Executive continued, and sup
plies are needed from the outside.
A reporter recalled that some OF
the five Senators who toured the
world battlefronts last year were
critical of the fact that domestic oil
reserves were being used up and
that more oil was not being obtained
from the Persian Gulf area. The
President was asked If he had any,
thing to say about the criticism OF
the pipeline project.
Mr.. Roosevelt, saying he was not
going to mention names. recalled
that one Senator had talked about
the idea that not enough Persian
oil was being used. But at the time
the President said, while efforts
were being made to open up a route
through the Suez Canal, the oil hao
to come around the Cape OF Coco
Hope.
Answering an inquiry about re-
ports that the Russians, British and
Americans had discussed oil market
ing at the Teheran and Cairo con-
ferences in November and Decem.
ber, Mr.. Roosevelt said this was not
done that he knew of. Likewise he
said he knew nothing of a British
mission coming here to discuss the
question.
However, it was reported elsewhere
that the British government will
SEND a delegation to the United
States to discuss the DEVELOPMENT
OF Middle Eastern oil reserves with.
out reference to the Cairo or Teherar
conferences.

Siege Of leningrad
Broken by Barrage
OF 100000 Shells
BY HENRY C. CASSIDY.

Associated Press War Correspondent.
LENINGRAD, Feb. 10 Delayed
How Leningrad was saved by an
artillery barrage of more than 5O0,-
900 shells which drenched in fire a
half-mile sector controlling the
siege of the city was told today by
participants in that battle.
The guns were directed against a
hill called Finnskoye Koirovo, Z
miles southwest of Leningrad, where
the Germans sat for two years and
four months within clear view OF
their objective without being able
to take it. From it they were final
ly rolled back into the Battles.
That hill, the Russians said, was
hit with 100000 to 100000 shells
along a front half mile wide and
2 miles deep starting at 9:20 am.
and permitting a decisive break
through in the battle of Leningrad.
This probably was history's most
powerful artillery barrage, surpass-
Ing the Red Army's preparation for
the battle of Orel, which was esti-
mated to have been 10 times greater
than the density of fire at Verdun
How the barrage turned the tide
in the Battle Of Leningrad was re-
lated to % American and British
correspondents on the spot by 1t.
Col. Lavbarshai of the Russian en-
gineers and 1t. Col. Gregory Ket-
lerov of the Rec Army general stan.
The Germans, they said, held a
formidable and advantageous posi-
ton overlooking the Russian lines
in broad field, beyond which the
towers and domes of Russia's second
largest city were clearly visible.
The Nazi defenses were arranged
around concrete pillboxes with steel
roofs set flush with the ground
These could not be detected from q
little distance, but from them the
Germans could peer through peri
scopes and then rise to fire,

The head of large heating c"" cern recently remarked to nc tl-a the success of his company is large ly the result of correcting other peoples mistakes. What he meant was that most of their business came from homes which were ex- periencing heating trouble of one kind or another.
 A chief mistake is that of allow ing the price rather than the ade- quacy of the furnace to determine ones choice. In doing so they ig- nore certain laws of heating which must be conformed to if good re- suits are expected. There are def mite formulas for calculating th capacity of furnace in relation the size and type of home to l heated, and while it does no har1 to install furnace of over-car city, it does bring trouble to inst, one of inadequate size. Size f. size, all furnaces run pretty nucl equal in installed cost; therefore when an experienced heating mar figures out the price of a correct installation, one does not save money by taking a smaller size than is recommended. It just means replacing the inadequate job late. on, which in effect is paying doublc for one's heating plant.
 The heart of your home is itf furnace, and there just isn't any chance of having a healthy homo with an undersized heart. The oniy safe way is to place the matter in the hands of a reliable heating mar who makes the selling of the fur mace secondary to the accurate de- termination of your homes hea4.qc- needs. He will plan your hea:il1c- system as it should be for great est efficiency, using mathe,na <: ' calculation instead of guesswor,, and when he arrives at the coryec. answer, that's what he'll stick to. And If you also stick to his find. ings, you'll not be making a rnis. take that shall later have to be corrected. "

 He stepped out from be- hind his characters, after the Nazis caught him at his French villa in 1940, to broadcast to the home folks back in England. He used the German radio to tell them the lighter side of life in a concentration camp.
 Now, left high and dry in Paris, MT. Wodehouse says it was all a terrible mis- take. He has asked official permission to come back to England and explain.

MEN NEEDED FOR MERCHANT MARINE DUTY

With 5000 men leaving their ships each month, the most crit ical manpower situation in America today is the need for experienced seamen in tn Mer- chant Marine, according to Lieut.. Commander w. c. Peet, Jr., Pa cific Coast director of the War Shipping Administration. Confer ences in Washington have result ed, he declared, in the War Man power Commission giving Mer- chant Marine man power needs top priority.
 With the European war mount ing to climax and with along bitter struggle ahead in the Pa cific the minimum number of experienced seamen who must be returned to Merchant Marine ships during the next twelve months is 43,OO0," Lieut.. Com. mander Peet declares, land for the next few months at least the recruiting rate must be increased to 5000 experienced men month if we are to succeed in keping our armies supplied and our cas- ualties down.

 Reasons for the alarming wholesale desertion from ships has been the widespread belief that the war is almost over and that the Merchant Marine will collapse after his war as it did in the last, VISA officials believe. Men are anxious to get a shore job before the war is over and the rush starts. It is estimated that 225,O00 experienced seamen are now working on land.

For a time the relative status of Field Marshal Sir Bernard Montgomery and It. Gen. Omar Bradley threatened to grow into one of those unpleasant sit uations which, through no fault of the principals, in- wolves international jeal- ousies, snubs and hard feel ings. But General Eisen hover has dispelled the threats with an explanation in which modesty, tact and self-effacing bestowal of credit were mastertully blended.
