take over Manchuria's capital
would be pledged to maintain a
democratic rule"
Chinese press reports said 10000
Communist troops had stormed and
captured the Nationalist stronghold
of Paotow, in Inner Mongolia.
The Chinese Central News Agency
said Paotow-one of two focal
points In the struggle for control
of the Inner Mongolian province of
Suiyuan - fell after Communist
troops forced the west gate late last
month.
Presumably long -besieged Kweisui,
Suiyuan Province capital 90 miles
east of Paotow, still held out.
Nationalist forces, who Friday
forged into the rich northern prov
ince after capturing Shanhaikwan
widened their hold around that
great wall anchor, but Communists
were reported bolstering their posi-
tions In the interior.
The Nationalist success eliminated
the necessity of amphibious landings
in Manchuria, an operation made
hazardous by failure to agree with
Russia on ports of entry and by
American refusal to use its ships tG
transport Chinese troops there.

MOSCOW, Nov. 19.-Soviet geog-
raphers back from four years ex-
ploration of the coolest place or
earth--the Yakutsk region in ST.
beria-yesterday reported vast gold
fields, precious stones and valuable
minerals were under the frozen soil
1000 miles north of Manchuria.
The explorers told strange tales
of the little known land where the
temperature dropped to "a degrees
below zero in winter-lowest ever
recorded near the earth's surface by
Soviet observers-only to rise to 9s
degrees above zero in the same
region during the summer. But
even the summer heat thaws the
earth only on the surface.
Geographer Dimitri M. Kolosov
told the Moscow News that gold
fields along the Lena River, already
acknowledged as among the most
important in the world, are capable
of great expansion. Mining of pre-
ciouS stones and various ores also
could be developed, it was reported

Few Comparisons IN p!!ii n. on
AZ and AS Car Prices
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press ..
Only a few comparisons of 1941
automobile price ceilings and those
for new cars can be made on the
basis. of OPA's announcement OF
yesterday. ..
Ford and Studebaker thus far are
the only companies to receive spe-
c1flc ceilings. And the ceilings COW
er only a few models built by these
companies. 49, s.s' ..'.~ -...
For other cars. OPA simply gave
overall percentages of increase or
decrease without relating the per-
centages to individual models.
In the case of Ford, here are the
comparisons which can be made:
De luxe eight-cylinder-Tudor
sedan, 1892 is the retail ceiling price
at the factory, as compared with
$3.50 In 1912; Fordor sedan, 1891 as
compared with $685.; three-pas-
senger coupe, 1884, as compared
with $815. ~.
-xdor Sedan Up S45.
super de luxe 8-cylinder-Tudor
eedan, S940, as compared with 1895;
Fordor sedan, 1899, as compared with
$3.50, sedan coupe, $977, as compared
with 1920; 3-passenger coupe, 1891,
as compared with $500.
OPA priced four Studebaker mod
els, but said there is mo basis" for
comparing these with models listed
in the 1942 price chart. Explaining,
the agency said the new models are
not similar to those of four years
ago
Here are retail prices assigned for
Studebakers:
Four-door cruising sedan, S967,
two-door club sedan, 1913: five-pas-
senger Gouble-dater coupe, se16;
three-passenger business coupe. S875
These are all retail factory prices,
which means that, as always. they
will cost more in showrooms when
Federal TAX, transportation costs
and preparation and handling
charges have been added.
The Federal tax varies with the
ear and the model, while the trans
portatio1 charge depends on the
distance from factory to showroom.
: Examples of Difference.
Here's one example of how, in
1912, factory prices differed from
prices the public paid:
The factory retail price for an
eigat-cylinder Ford de luxe Tudor
sedan was $3.50. If it was sold here,
the customer paid $1,00141,
Here's a breakdown of that sl514lI
difference
Federal tax, $50; transportation,
s43; preparation and handling,
s44.65i gas, and oil, ls4.76; oil filter,
s6;; oil bath air cleaner, SO.
That's for standard equipment,
of course. Accessories, such as
radio and bumper guards, are extra.
And it covered only a black paint
Job. For colors, another IS was
added.
The situation will be pretty much
the same for new cars, according to
OPA.

ers will be allowed increases. Gen.
orally speaking, these will not be
passed on to the consumers, but will
be absorbed by the dealers.
Decreases Held Unjustified.
Mr.. Mallon, who is in Cincinnati
attending an executive committee
meeting of his group, said the deal
ers feel the decision SIS not justified
either by the limited
studies made by OPA, nor the Sec
ton OF the Pricing Act upon which
Mr.. Bowles bases his claim of a
right to alter discount margins"
He predicted the pricing act would
be amended in the very near fu-
ture" to clarity this point, and said
Chairman Patman of the House
Small Business Committee agreed
with him on this contention.
Mr.. Patmandeclined to comment
pending a study of the OPA action,
but Representative Larcada, Demo-
crat, of Louisiana, who frequently
has criticized Mr.. Bowles, declared
he believes "the best interests of
the country would be served by
Bowles' removal"
TT looks like Bowles is defyine
the wishes Of Congress" Mr.. Larcade
said.
Meanwhile. OPA continued with
its plans to put price tag on other
new cars. An OPA official said to-
day price rates on additional makes
would be completed within two or
three weeks.
The big surprise of Mr.. Bowles'
announcement of yesterday is that
GM-built Chevrolets, Pontiacs, Olds-
mobiles, Bucks and Cadillacs will
sell at retail for an average of 2.5
per cent less than in January, 1912.
Some increases had been expected
but there had been no hint of price
cuts.
Chrysler Products Up III.
The retail boosts are l per cent for
Chryslers and that company's other
makes-Plymouth, Dodge and De
Soto: 2 per cent for Fords, and 8
per cent for Studebaker.
/ In the case of Ford, for example.
the retail ceiling for a new de luxe
eight-cylinder tudor sedan is $3.50 at
the factory. The 1912 ceiling was
$3.50.
! OPA said that because of apparent
model changes it had no basis at this
time for comparison Of any except
Ford prices. s~v
The increases announced are ex-
fclusive of any which may be allowed
for appreciable design or specifica-
ton changes.
In the way OF actual price ceilings
there was little news in Mr.. Bowles
announcement.
He made public ceilings for only
a few Ford and Studebaker models
and said prices for other models
and other cars would be along a.
soon as details could be worked out

Government employees and employees
Of nUnprof1t institutions and their
families he said.
He added that needy persons
and other groups should be covered
through appropriate premiums paid
for them by public agencies"
The Federal Government should
share in these added State costs, the
President said.
The President, in discussing the
need for anational health program,
said:
Even before the war there were
81 counties in the United States each
with more than 1000 inhabitants
in which there were no practicing
physicians. About 1900 counties,
with some 100000 inhabitants
have either no local hospital or none
that meets even: the minimum stand
ards of national professional asso-
ClaClOQS.
THE people of the United States
received shock when the medical
examinations conducted by the Sc
lective Service System revealed the
widespread physical and mental in
capacity among the young people OF
our Nation.
I'VE had had prior warnings from
eminent medical authorities anc
from investigating committee Tlnt
statistics of the last war had showr
the same condition. But the Selec.
tive Service System has brought i
torcibly to our attention recently

30 Per Cent Unfit.
"As of April /, 1945, nearly 5000,
900 male registrants between tn,
ages of 18 and 81 had been examined
and classified as unfit for militar!
service. The number of those re
jected for military service was abou

These include the GIN makes, which
are to be cut.
Other Ceilings Not Given.
Mr.. Bowles, gave no indication at
all of ceilings for Hudson. Nash,
Packard, Crosley, WHY'S or the new
Fraser-Kaiser cars. OF these he
said either that calculations had
not been completed or that pro-
duction is still some distance" In
the future.
Auto dealers pleas for outright
exemption from the requirement
that they absorb some of manufac-
turers' higher production costs were
turned down by the OPA chief.
But their traditional prewar dis
count of "a per cent on manufac-
turers' prices is not being trimmed
as much as they had feared. The
cut will be az percentage points,
giving them a revised initial profit
margin of 2l.5 per cent.
Last week, In replying to dealers
protests to a congressional commit
tee, Mr.. Bowles had indicated the
discount might be reduced by as
much as percentage points. Earl
ier. he had said auto sales firms
could stand, without financial loss,
cut OF II or II points.
The purpose of the profit margin
cut-called cost abSorption-is to
keep retail prices for all new cars
from averaging more than in 1912.
Says Dealers Can Absorb Rise.
Mr.. Bowles said the cut Of 2.5
points would accomplish this. He
said that an average 3h per cent
price increase being granted to
manufacturers would be fully alb
sorbed by dealers.
This means that he expects retail
price increases will be Offset by the
cuts, and that the aggregate retail
price of all new cars will not be
any greater than in 1912.
There was immediate comment
from only one Of the manufacturers
covered by the first OPA announce
ment. all of whom except General
Motors received price increases.
In the case of Ford. company
spokesman said at Detroit that
"OPA refused to give us the figures. 4"
OPA said Ford and Studebaker
prices had been turned over to COM
pany officials shortly before they
were announced to the public.
An OPA spokesman said that
even though General Motors is get
ting no factory price increase, "it
would not be fair to exempt GIN
dealers from cost absorption and
require it of Others"
1t is this retail price cut that
makes it possible for Mr.. Bowles to
say that on the average the public
will pay no more for cars than in
January, l942. This is made clear
by the fact that in 1941 GIN ac-
counted for about Al per cent of
auto industry production

Women sC|ub Leader
Says Universal Draft
Will Strengthen u. 5.

Universal military training will
give the United States power t.
deter aggression ard strengthen tn,
United Nations Organization in it,
fight for lasting peace, Mrs. La Eel
Dickinson, president of the Gen.
eral Federation of Woman's Clubs
said today.
Speaking as an individual, Mrs
Dickinson told the House Military
Affairs Committee that:
"The maintenance of a we'll.
trained citizens reserve, capable o1
quick mobilization In time of emer.
gency, would not indicate, as some
people contend. a lack of confidence
In the United Nations Organization
On the contrary, the efficacy of the
international organization, upor
which the world depends to main.
tain peace, rests ultimately on its
collective power to put down ag.
gression. The very existence of such
power will in itself be a deterrent
to any would-be aggressor. In order
to fulfill it's commitments under the
United Nations Charter, the United
States must remain strong"
U. S. Saved by Time.
Mrs. Dickinson led a group OF
women from the Citizens Commit
tee for Military Training of Young
Men, Inc, testifying for one year
OF training as recommended to Con-
gress by President Truman.
Mrs. Dickinson declared that twice
within the past rs years the United
States has been unprepared for war
"and both times it was saved only
because it was granted time to mar
shall its human and economic re-
sources"
In the future an aggressor will
strike with instruments of destruc-
ton so swift and terrifying as to
defy imagination" she declared.
Would Benefit Youth.
A year of training will benefit
young men by giving them "a sense
of national responsibility" Mrs
Dickinson declared.
Mrs. Lula E. Bachman of Detroit
president of the National Associa-
ton of Women Lawyers of the
United States and a member OF the
Citizens Committee, declared she
had received numerous letters from
women whose husbands or sons had
been wounded or killed in war
urging preparedness and military
training during peacetime.
OF $500 women in Michigan who
were asked their views on universal
training, Mrs. Bachman said only
seven opposed the program.
Her son, she said, had spent three
and half years In the Pacific and
had been on torpedoed ship.
Women generally oppose war
but women generally, particularly
mothers, believe that the Congress
must provide universal training If
the Congress has the right to draft
Mrs. Bachman said.
Mrs. Ernesta Barlow of New York
vice president of the Citizens Com
mittee, declared she was convinced
majority of the women favored
universal training.
Asked by Representative Short
Republican, of Missouri, If this
country isn't being swept away by
hysteria" on training, Mrs. Barlow
replied: 1--WE have had a peace hys-
terra but never a war hysteria In
this country" ..-. 3

she took her baby to her mother S
home for protection.
DR.. Wall cited another instance
OF mother and three children ill
with influenza where the mother
finally had to stagger from bed and
drive the incompetent practical
nurse from the house.
Dickens Character Cited.
DR.. Wall said this small group
OF irresponsible nurses are similar

Charles Dickens. DR.. Wall read q

drunken. condition and said that
such conditions actually exist in
the District today"
When Commissioner Mason
stressed that a proposed revision
would place control OF practical
nurses under the examining board,
now composed entirely of registered
nurses. Mrs. Elsie Casassa, president
Of the board, said she would welcome
either a new position for a repre-
sentative of practical nursing on
the board or would oust one of the
registered nurses to make a place.
DR.. Alvin Sweeney, superintend-
ent of Gallinger Hospital, testified
that he would be able to open an
other tuberculosis ward there If he
could draw upon group of prac-
tical nurses accredited by the
Nurses Examining Board. Wards
at both Gallinger and at Glenn Dale
have been closed for lack of quail
ified personnel, he pointed out.
Others Support Amendment.
Others supporting the amendment
were Miss Hilda Torrop, National
Association for Practical Nurse Ed
ucation; j. G. Capossela, superin-
tendent of Emergency Hospital;
Mrs. Mary Resh, principal of Bur-
dick Vocational High School, and
Mrs. Josephine Prescott, director Of
the District Health Department
Bureau OF Nursing.
Two men representing opposition
to the measure, w. E. Cumberland
and H. M. Goldstein, said they
needed more time to prepare their
arguments. However, they agreed
with Charles D. Drayton, represent
