WOMEN BEATING CITY
FOLKS AT FAT SAVING

Our government knows that
city women have done an out
standing job saving used fats
but, now that you town and farm
women have rolled up your
sleeves, you are providing more
used fats per kitchen than any
other group in the U. S. Keep
it up! 1OO,0O0,O00 more pounds OF
used fats are needed this year to
help make vital war supplies.
Without your record savings,
we'll never make that quota.
Save every drop! Remember,
it's the small amounts that fill
the salvage can faster. Drip
pings, skimmings, scrapings, and
fat scraps melted down. Your
butcher will give you 2 red points
and up to 4t a pound. If you have
any difficulty, call your Home
Demonstration or County Agent.

tenn by which 1t will choose the

4,500,000 Peace Army Seen.
Meanwhile, despite a written de-
NAL by Chairman May, Democrat, of
Kentucky, House Military Affairs
committeeman insisted the Army
had outlined to them tentative plans
for postwar military setup of A.
500. 900 men, mostly reservists.
To back up their disclosure Of the
plan they said was outlined to the
committee Monday by Army off,
GERS, committee members displayed
a mimeographed War Department
statement using the 100000 figure.
1t was distributed to them Mon
day, they said. They added that
while 1t is tentative and based on
the assumption that a peacetime
draft law will be enacted. it repre-
sents the War Departments present
views.
Trained Youth Included.
The 100000, they said, would in
clude an estimated 100000 reserves
built up primarily through peace
time military training of the Ma
tons youth-and standing"
Army of approximately 100000 men.
There was difference of opinion
among committee members on
whether the 1000, 900 reserves would
include National Guardsmen or
whether the Guard would be counted
as part of the Regular Army in
peacetime.
Several committee members re-
ferred to the 100000 force as a
potential Midday Army"-which
could be modified within a period
of 100 days if needed.

British Government
Disputes Red Version
|0f Is Poles Arrest
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON. May 9.-Minister Of
State Richard Law told Commons
today the British government did
not agree with the Russian version
that the 16 Polish leaders under
arrest by the Russians were all
saboteurs.
A Soviet broadcast had accused
the Polish group, led by Gen. Leo
pold Okulicki. of sabotage behind
the lines of the Red Army. Cues
toned whether the introduction of
the name of this officer appears to
constitute quite different element"
Mr.. Law replied:
Il have seen the report of the
Tass agency and I can only say
that the information at the dis
posal of. the Government certainly
does not conform with what is con-
tanned in that report"
Mr.. Law said the British AM
bassador in Moscow had been or
dered to ask the Soviet government
for confirmation of the report that
Mr.. (WincentD Witos, former
Polish Prime Minister. is now at
liberty and for confirmation of
reports of the arrests of other
Polish leaders.
Witos disappeared a few days
after the Polish government in
London reported that the first group
of Poles dropped from sight after
answering the call of the Russian
secret police, ostensibly to arrange
their transportation to London.
Asked whether the British gov
sernment had any sound reasons"
for believing the Is Polish leaders
still were alive, Mr.. Law said that
he regretted that I'VE have no fur
ther information than that with
which the House is already IA
miliar."
The British minister was refer
ring to British statement that dis
cussions with Moscow on the crea-
ton of a broader Polish govern
ment in line with the Yalta agree
ment had broken down as a result
of the arrest of the Poles. some OF
whom, Moscow said, would be tried
on charges of sabotage.

of coal production is being lost daily.
The miners have refused to. re-
turn to work since April 80. when
their old contract expired. Mr.
Lewis also declined Mr.. Ickes re-
quest to extend the old agreement.
although the operators expressed
willingness to do so. The confer
ence is deadlocked over the miners
request for $3.50 q day travel
time pay.
Mr.. Ickes last week seized all an
thracite properties and will attempt
to draw up contract for Govern
ment operation of the properties.
