"CRY HAVOC" E
 SUNDAY FEATURE
 ATCAPIT0L SHOW

After the infamous Jap attack on the never o-be-forgotten morning of December ', Gen. MacArthur's forces, overwhelmed by the enemy, fought delaying action in Bataan which will be long remembered in American history. During the long steady retreat the American and Filipino forces fought constantly against terrific odds with ever dwindling supplies and munitions. Metro Goldwyn Mayors gripping drama, Cry Havoc,' tells the story of thirteen heroic women who re- mained on Bataan to help evacuate the wounded.
 The story of the film. which starts Sunday at the Capitol Theatre, is simple. Thirteen women from all walks of life are thrown together by a common cause--love of their coun- try and love of humanity. They live and work together until the last shot is fired. Two of them fight word less duel for the love of one man until a dramatic disclosure resolves the problem.

Tito S Forces Retake
Cain, Road Junction
BY the Associated Press.

by the ASSOclateG ffeSS.
LONDON, April 14.-Troops under
the command of Marshal Tito,
Yugoslav Partisan leader, have re-
captured the town of Cain, an
important highway junction on one
of the main cross-country routes
between the German bases of
Zagreb and Sibenik, a communicate
broadcast by the Free Yugosla radio
announced today.
Cain is So miles southwest of
Zagreb and 80 miles north of Sibe-
mix, important Axis supply port on
the Dalmatian coast.
The Partisans cleared the whole
town of Cain of German troops
with the exception of the fortress
garrison which is now under siege,
Tito's bulletin said.
Sixty-two miles south of Cain,
however, reinforced Axis forces
|stormed and captured the town OF
Golubic, 8 miles north of Knin and
33 miles northwest of Sibenik, which
had recently been taken over by
Partisan troops.
Tito reported the whole of Western
Bosnia north of Sibenik blazing into
action as the rival forces fought for
control of the coastal communica
tion routes, with violent fighting in
the Knin- -Bihac- Kosta jnica sectors.
The Germans were rushing REIN
Iforcements to stave off the fierce
Partisan assaults on their vital sup
ply and communication lines, Tito
added, with results still unde-
termjned.
Partisan troops, however, sue
ceeded in wrecking the Zagreb-Ss
railway in several places, according
to Tito's communiuue.

NlRB Can't Poll Soldiers,
But Sets Up Veteran Policy

The National Labor Relations
Board has resolved its own soldier
vote problem.
Absentee ballots for collective
bargaining elections will not be pro-
vided for employees in military serv-
ice, but veterans returning to their
jobs will be given the opportunity
to affirm or change" the bargain
ing agent selected in their absence,
the board said.
Our inability" said the board in
declaration of policy, ito poll all
the employees on military leave will
not necessarily operate to give per-
manent status to a. bargaining rep
resentative chosen in their absence
The board said its decision recog-
nizes that employees on military leave
retain their status as employees and,
therefore, have a real interest in
the choice of a bargaining repre-
sentative. However, the board add
ed, because those employees are scat
tered throughout the world it would
be virtually impossible to poll them

Complete understanding and Coop
Grafton by English-speaking peoples

prerequisite" to any Agreement that
will prevent future WARS, Secretary
of the Navy Knox declared last
night.
In an address at the opening of
the sixth war loan drive in Canada
he said more than a century of
peaceful unarmed relationship be-
tween Canada and the United
States, should be an inspiring OBJ
ject lesson" toward helping to bring
about such cooperation.
Mr.. Knox paid high tribute to CO.
operation of Canada and the United
States in production of war ma
terials, and in the field of military
accomplishment" where, he said
there is much to give us cheer and
encouragement to feel sure of ulti-
mate victory"
Praises Canadian Navy.
But. he added, despite victories
throughout the world, 1T is species
OF treason for us to let up for an
instant in our pressure to provide
every essential of war equipment or
supplies to the men who are fight
ing SO bravely for us"
The Navy Secretary also praised
the augmented Canadian Navy for
its war against the U-boat and for
conveying $4,000 ships across the At
lantic.
He reiterated, that "the enemy
still has large number of SUBJ
marines and will make desperate use
OF that weapon before the war is
overland we will be ready for
them"

Martial Law in Hawaii
To Continue Despite
InyaIidation by Courf
By the Associated Press.

HONOLULU. April 14-Martial
law in Hawaii, starting point of the
Pacific War, was ruled invalid yes
terday by Federal judge but mill
tary leaders proclaimed it still in
force today and said violations of
general orders would be subject to
Provost Court trials.
The War Department prepared to
appeal decision by Federal Judge
Delbert E. MetZger that a Provost
Court was without authority to try
Navy Yard worker and sentence
him to prison on conviction of
aSsaulting two marine sentries.
The Judges ra.ing came at the
conclusion of a trial at which
Hawaiis military Governor, 1t. Gen
Robert G. Richardson testified mar
tial law was vital to protect the
islands from existing perils, Admiral
Chester w. Nimitz, another witness,
had said Pearl Harbor was in dam
ger OF such attacks as the one which
started the war December 7, l941, SO
long as single japanese aircraft
carrier remains afloat.
Civil Government Held Adequate.
Judge Metzger. in upholding the
release on habeas corpus writ of
the Navy Yard worker, Lloyd C.
Duncan, formerly of Sheridan, Wyo.,
pointed out that both Gen. Richard
son and Admiral Nimitz agreed there
was no danger of actual invasion.
He ruled that the right to estab-
hsh martial law under Hawaii's
organic act ceases and becomes un-
lawful as soon as the civil govern
ment is capable and willing to re-
sumo its normal functions"
He added that throughout l943
the civilian government was "suffl-
GENTLY equipped. capable and willing
to perform all of the functions for
which it was created"
Immediate Appeal Planned.
Col. w. r. c. Morrison. exec
utive officer to Gen. Richardson
said the War Department would
appeal the decision Immediately
adding:
Pending a decision by the high
est court, the Office of military gov.
ernor will function as usual and
violations of general orders will
continue to be tried in provost
courts"
He said the 10 pm. curfew and
blackout regulations would continue
to be enforced.
Judge Metzger in another case
involving aliens, last year held
Gen. Richardson in contempt of
court and fined him but the case
was ended by a presidential pardon.
That case likewise involved the
right of civilian courts to issue writs
of habeas corpus.

FRANKFORT, KY, April a.
Gov. Simeon Willis proclamation oi
May 81 as "day OF prayer" in Ken
lucky was revoked yesterday on the
ground that the sponsor, purportine
to be of religious backing, had been
found to be "a bad organization, y
Ralph Homan, the Governors ex-
ecutive secretary said.
Mr.. Homan issued a statement
naming the Protestant Chaplains'
Association of New York as the or
ganization requesting designation OF
the date as day of prayer.
He said an investigation of the
associations Affiliations was started
at the instigation of newspapers
rand friendly sources" In New York
The Governors formal act of revo-
cation said it had the support of a
person or persons under the ac-
cusation OF the crime of sedition."
No Individual Listed.
No individual was listed by name
in the executive order of revocation
or In Mr.. Homan's statement.
Among sources condemning the
organization was the executive as.
sistant to Gov. Thomas E. Dewey
of New York, Mr.. Homan said.
Mr.. Homan's statement.
On March 10, Gov. Willis received
letter from an organization in New
York with the title of Protestant
Chaplains' Association 1t was well
located and gave as it's motto. For
God, for home and country
The letter set forth that it was
an organization of Protestant
ciergymen founded several years
previously, and requested that the
Governor proclaim a day of PRAYER
1t further indicated a campaign was
being conducted throughout the
Nation through the medium Of all
Protestant churches. As it pur-
ported to be bona fide religious
organization, the Governor did. in
all good faith, issue a proclamat ton
setting May 81 as a day of prayer.
Based Upon Ulterior Motives.
1T later developed that the letter
was devious misrepresentation and
was based entirely on ulterior mo-
tives which could not be discovered
from the letter itself.
1T was carefully checked and
authenticated that the organization
was not entitled to the considera-
tion given to it. The Governor has
accordingly revoked the proclama-
ton entirely because of it's spon-
sorsnip."
The executive secretary said he
knew OF no other State that had
complied with the organization S
