 The arrival of British ground forces on Jugoslav territory never theless was regarded as significant because of the implied hint of in- creased Allied aid for Marshal Josip (Tito) Brozovichs Partisans. The free Jugoslav radio on several previous occasions has mentioned the presence of British iaison off, cers in Jugoslavia, but emphasized they were engaged chiefly in dis. tributing Allied supplies.
 Our and British units carried out successful operations near Belo Groblje on the island of Havar," the brief reference to the British in today's communiQue said.
 The communique also reported that British motor torpedo boats had attacked and sunk four Ger man schooners near Sibenik, just north of Split, an action first an- nounced by Allied headquarters at AlgierS last Sunday. Eighty-f1ve German crew members were taken prisoners, the Jugoslav communique said.
 Allied destroyers bombarded Star- igrad on Hvar island last Thursday night, Algiers also announced Sum- day.
 The Jugoslav communique said the Germans on the mainland were exerting heavy pressure in the vi- cinity of Partisan-held communi- cation lines.

 Therefore, we assert that the basic cause for strikes in wartime America Is the disgraceful failure of the stabilization program.
 He declared that the responSibil- ity for strikes must be borne by congress and government officials who had surrendered to demands for higher prices, failed to adopt an adequate subsidy program and sought to alibi their failures by making labor the goat".
 His statement came as AFL melN- bers of the War Labor Board await ed WI4B consideration of their peti- tion to abandon the Little Steel for mula. The petition, filed yesterday, asked the board to recommend that President Roosevelt modify his flold-the-line order of last April. That order wrote the Little Steel formula into VILE policy.
 No action was taken yesterday, but the AFL members expected to vote within a few days.

 ed Germany by night.
 Even before U. s. Army head- quarters announced the daylight at- tack on Brunswick, 120 miles west of Berlin, the Nad radio reported that bitter air battle of consider able scope was fought over north west Germany.
 The Nazis said German fighter squadrons apparently goaded in- to action by the American frontal sweep toward Berlin, although the enemy broadcasts did not specify the location engaged U. s. bomber formations before they reached their target.
 Brunswick, site of Messer- schmitt aircraft plant, was one of the targets in the historic raid by more than 700 American bombers and nearly as many fighters on January Il. Sixty American bomb- CTS and five fighters were lost that day in one of the most sensational aerial combats of the war, while at least 152 German fighters were shot down.
 Every building but one at the Messerschmitt plant was listed as probably destroyed in that attack. Brunswick was hit again on Janu- ary 30.
 The third daylight blow against the medieval metropolis, now one of Adolf Hitler's main aircraft cen ters, was struck by comparatively small force of FortresSes.
 Today's operations raised to 10 the number of major operations by American heavy bombers in 13 days. Despite exceptionally cold weather, the heavies ran up a rec ord of the greatest sustained series of operations in their history.
 A large force of bombers in tight formation flew over London at 1nid- morning. The roar of their motors partially drowned out the noise of the city traffic.

 The prisoner bag during the first few hours of the campaign was more than half the total captured in the entire 21-day Attu campaign last spring. Of an estimated 2,300 Japanese on Attu only small num- Der was taken alive. Admiral Chester W. Ninitz an- nounced Monday that 264 Japanese were taken prisoner in the Kwaja- lein campaign)
 The first prisoners to reach the flagship were enlisted men of the navy, survivors of two light Subma- rine chaSerS which were destroyed by carrier planes during softening- up bombing of the Kwajalein an- chorage.
 A'0 the officers of the two ships were killed.
 Instead of the sullen attitudes of the Guadalcanal captives, these prisoners seemed relieved to be re- moved from their small life boat and raft, all surrendered without resistance.
 All were over-awed by the huge American invasion fleet which mov- ed into Kwajalein lagoon and 1t was apparent their views of the outcome of the war had changed considerably.
 Only one of them seemed asham. ed he was captive and even he soon changed his mind when he received his first food in two days. and none showed displeasure after eating American bread like cake and Smok- ing American cigarettes.

10000 in Pentagon
May Be Spared Tax
Under Virginia Bill

mately 10000 nonresident workers
in the War Departments Pentagon
Building would not have to file Vir-
ginia income tax returns under q
bill reported out today by the Vir.
ginia Senate Finance Committee.
State Senator William D. Medley.
Arlington, author of the bill, said
his measure would relieve nonresi-
dents paying income taxes elsewhere
from having to file State income
tax returns. He pointed out that
while the ma jority of Pentagon en-
ployes are taxed either in Maryland
or in the District and therefore do
not have to pay any Virginia State
tax, they still must file Virginia
income tax returns Present law
requires reporting of income earned
in Virginia.
Meanwhile, the Senate Privileges
and Elections Committee adopted a
resolution requesting the attorney
general to determine whether the
General Assembly has authority to
enact laws permitting Virginiars in
the armed services to vote.
| The committee asserted that~it was
anxious to enact legislation which
will permit, encourage and facin-
tate the voting for State and local
officers by members of the armed
| forces"

Flag Trademark Ban
On Certain Exports
Lifted by President

President Roosevelt yesterday is
sued a proclamation lifting the pro-
hibition against the use of the
American flag as trademark If
lease-lend goods, or other materials
shipped out Of this country for relief
or emergency purposes and carrying
a reproduction of the flag as an
Identifying mark, are "by force of
circumstances" diverted to CONNER
cial channels.
No explanation was given for the
proclamation, which said that "the
effective prosecution of the war re-
quires proper understanding by the
people of other countries of the ma
terial assistance being given by the
Government of the United States,
and authorized the use of the flag
as distinguishing mark to make
this aid known, whenever approved
by the Foreign Economic Admins
tration
Some lease lend goods have car
ried the flag trademark. but it was
said at the FEA that difficulty had
been encountered in getting manu-.
facturers to use it. because they
feared to run afoul of the law il
the goods were disposed of through
private channels.
Some of the five Senators who
toured the battle fronts last yeal
complained that some lease LEND
products were being transferred te
