veterans organizations disclosed
today they will ask the coming
Congress 10 place a ban or drastic
curb on postwar immigration.
The immigration stoppage will
be sought as a safeguard 10 re-
turning veterans seeking employ
ment against competition by alien
labor.
An outright bar to immigration
for a 10-year period will be asked
by the Veterans of Foreign Wars.
The American Legion will pro-
pose a halt on immigration at any
time there are more than 1000, 900
American citizens unemployed.
AID TO u. 8. VETERANS
Explaining his organizations
position, Jean A. Drummer Of New
York. commander in chief of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars, said
today:
"Tt Is gratifying TO note the
concern Of government, indus
try, agriculture and labor over
postwar employment for return
ing service personnel Of the
present war.
Among all the plans Co pro-
vide full employment, however,
little consideration Is being
given To the question of immi-
grafton and it's effect on employ
ment opportunities for returning
veterans.
"The Veterans Of Foreign
Wars believe and advocate that
all immigration the United
states should be prohibited for
at least 10 years.

turning veterans TO find the
jobs created by an expanded
peacetime economy are filled by
refugees and immigrants from
other countries
DECORATIONS URGED
Not only will the VFW ask that
the gates TO immigrants be closed,
but that all aliens who are in the
United States unlawfuliy or who
have "subversive tendencies be
deported.
The first objective would re-
quire Observation-Disclosures firm
administrative action.
Brunner's statement was in line
with action taken by the VF'W at
its last national encampment
Other officials of the organiza-
ton. simplifying his comment, said
that postwar food of immigrants
competing with veterans in the job
market would tend to lower ma
tional standards and prevent many
veterans from obtaining suitable
employment.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30 QNS)
Following successful II
months of fighting, the New Year
finds operations in the Pacific
progressing most satisfactorily
for the Americans. In his Christ
mas message Fleet Adm. Nimitz
expressed his utmost admiration.
TO our forces ashore and afloat
who have met every expecta-
ton"
On the other hand. the closing
months of 1914 have been very
disastrous for the japanese. So
much SO, in fact, that Emperor
Hirohito, at the formal opening
OF the 86th regular session of the
japanese Diet Tuesday warned
that the war situation is becom-
ing more critical"
MINDORO ATTACKED
Following an aerial attack on
Mindoro Monday night. in which
three enemy planes were shot
down-and as a sort of final
propaganda item for the year-an
eight-ship japanese task force
consisting of a battleship heavy
cruiser and six destroyers inef-
fectually bombarded American
positions on the southwestern
part OF the island for 20 minutes

disastrous second battle of the
Philippine Sea was put 10 flight
by American naval planes and tor
pedo boats after losing three de-
stroyers sunk and having both
their battleship and cruiser DAM
aged.
OUTRUN SCHEDULE
With the brilliant completion Of
the Leyte-Samar campaign and
the daring advance 10 Mindoro
splendldly assisted by the navy
Gen. NJ Arthur apparently Is
ahead OF schedule in his battle for
liberation Of tf1e Philippines.
In their desperate. but futile de-
Tense OF Beyte the japanese army
has suffered perhaps the greatest
defeat" in history. Their dwindling
navy was soundly trounced with
heavy losses. and their air power
in the Philippine area was sadly
smashed.
Such record should prove 10
any doubling Thomas that our
battle for the Philippines. so far,
has been eminentiy successful. The
day Of their complete Liberation
certainly is not so far away as IL
seemed only three months ago.
NO SEA INVASION
As countereffort to our land
ing on Mindoro 1t Is very unlikely
that the enemy will attempt a
Sea-borne invasion. He may at
tempt 10 concentrate sufficient
troops on the island for attack.
However, because of the noun
famous terrain this Will take
some time.
On the other hand as japanese
strength In the Philippines is
greatest on Luzon and their COM
munication and supply lines with
the home islands are still intact.
they may await our final attack
on Luzon itself, building up re-
serves and supplies for pro-
longed defense in the belief, as
some enemy propagandists assert.
that the fate Of Japan hangs en-
the outcome of fighting in the
Philippines.

Tribal Oil Committee
Member Explains Quest

Contributed by a member of
the Tribal oil committee)
1t is reported that the Black
feet Tribal Business Council has
temporarily suspended leasing of
oil and mineral rights of the
Blackfeet tribe to any other
than to the Blackfeet.
The Tribal oil committee, op-
Grating upon appointment and
authority of the Tribal Council
believes that now is the time 10
urge the development of the
tribe 8 own oil resources and to
seriously consider a program to
retain 100 percent of the oil pro.
duction and control the tribes
own wells and oil fields for the
exclusive benefit of the 5000
members. thus eliminating the
giving away of 87a percent of
oil production and assure the
membership a substantial per
capita payment.
The oil problem of the Black
feet, and it is problem consid-
cred from all angles, must be
worked out for the best inter-
ests of each individual member.
1t is urged that the tribe as a
whole insist upon retaining 1O0
percent of oil production and de.
posit the proceeds to the credit
of each individual member.
The Council oil committee is
convinced this can be done.
An answer to this salient Ques-
ton as to how this can be done
is to commercialize oil anticIines
and oil domes as is done by ex.
perienced oil operators.
1t is the observation of the oil
committee that tribe is becoming
powerful corporation, whose po-
tential oil resources are immeas-
urable; that the members of the

council members. are keenly alert
and mindful of their responsible.
