In Aleutians,
Tokyo Reports
Home Industries BEING
Shifted to Monchuriu,
japanese Radio Says
~ the Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, June %
Japan today gave top priority
to transfer of it's home indus
tries to Manchuria and turned
nervous attention toward the
Aleutians, where the Tokyo
radio said the United States
was massing northumberland
fighters and paratroopers.
The transfer of war industries to
the Asia mainland was declared by
Tokyo, in a broadcast recorded
by the Federal Communications
Commission, to be even more
fundamental" than dispersion of in
dustries in Japan to escape Amer
lean air blows.
Tokyo said "a division composed
solely of Alpine troops" was being
stationed on Agattu Island. in the
outer Aleutians near Attu, and that
paratroopers were being placed
throughout the northern region.
U. S. Fleet in Area.
The broadcast asserted that Vice
Admiral Frank Jack Fletcher'S 9th
Fleet was awaiting an opportunity
to strike from the north. A light
unit of the fleet recently attacked
a Japanese convoy in the sea of
Okhotsk.
A Tokyo newspaper correspondent
was quoted as saying the transfer
of industries to Manchuria was an
attempt to establish securely
system for a protracted war, with
Japan as nucleus force"
At the same time, the enemy adj
mitted that American aerial blows
had interfered with "Japan's COM
munications with Manchukuo MAN
churia)," saying that to cope with
this rising menace the most eff
cient employment of available bot
toms" was required.
Manchuria's Role Cited.
Tokyo, emphasizing the more i'm
portant role that Manchuria must
assume as raids devastate the mu-
nitions cities of Japan. said that
already the focal point" of indus
tries on the continent has been
shifted to the production of fighting
weapons"
The broadcast spoke of certain
political difficulties on the CONT
nent, where the japanese have set
up puppet government, and said,
The lack of political coordination
has in many respects impeded
smooth economic coordination"
Mobilization of their composite
power for backing up Japan's fight
against the enemy invaders is abb
solutely required of these CONT
mental areas" Tokyo added.
Air Battle Mounts.
A Domei dispatch said American
planes based on Okinawa were OPEN
ing the battle for air supremacy over
the southern home island of Kyushu
but that this was but "a curtain
raiser to the decisive battle of the
japanese mainland"
I'm Kyushu," Domei continued,
''it is not rare for an AFRAID alert
to be sounded more than so times
in single day. Since the frequency
of enemy air raids will undoubtedly
increase hereafter, Kyushu will be
placed under an air alert almost
without interruption.
Domei reiterated the often-as-
serted Japanese claim that Kyushu
was IAN impregnable fortress" with
key points all along the coast forth
fed with powerful guns.

Federal Officials Study
Plans for Cutback 10
.44-Hour Work Week
Reduced Hours May Star,
July ! When Pay Roise
, Bill Goes in Effect
BY JOSEPH YOUNG.

Government officials met to-
day to consider plans for reduc-
ing the Federal work-week from
48 to A hours.
Attending the meeting were top
ofiicials Of the Budget Bureau and
the General Accounting Once and
Civil Service Commissioner Arthur
S. Fleming.
Although nothing definite has
been decided, it is considered i
strong likelihood that the reduction
of hours will go into effect July l,
the same date that the Federal pay
raise bill goes into effect.
II the officials at today's meeting
decide in favor of the reduced work
week, an executive order will be pre-.
pared for President Humans sig
nature. Final decision rests with
Mr.. Truman, to whom Senator Byrd
Democrat, of Virginia wrote yester-
day proposing 40-hour work week
in all Federal departments except
the War and Navy.
Immediate Approval Of Plan.
Mr.. Fleming and Budget Bureau
officials already have indicated their
approval of shortened work week.
The question still unsettled is
whether Army and Navy civilian
employees should be. exempted from
the ruling about hours.
The GAO and the Budget Bureau,
as well as the budget officers of the
various Federal agencies, have with
held issuance of the new pay raise
regulations pending q final decision
on the shortened work week. The
tremendous bookkeeping job in ad-
justing the new salary rates would
be made UNNECESSARILY easier if the
pay raises and shortened hours went
into effect at the same time, 1t was
said.
Earnings Are Estimated.
1t has been estimated that a cut
back in hours, should it include
Army and Navy Department en-
ployes, would affect 100000 white
collar workers and bring an annual
saving to the Government of $685.
100000. Should the Army and Navy
be excluded from the order, 400, 000
persons throughout the country
would be affected at an annual saw
ing to the Government Of $125 ,O00,-
600. Some 100000 employees in the
District would be affected by the
work reduction order, including the
Army and Navy.
Demands for a shortened work
week have been made several times
IN Congress during the past few
months.

ArmySupport Claimed
By ExiIed Polish
Regime in London
Big Three Recognition
Of Warsaw Government
Expected MomentoriIy
By the Associated Press.


LONDON. June ga spokes-
man for the Polish exile govern
ment in London declared today
that the Polish Army of 100000
to 100000 men remained "com-
pletely loyal to u.s." but admitted
the future Of the regime was
unknown.
With Big Three recognition of the
new Warsaw government expected
almost momentarily, the spokesman
was asked what the eXiled regime
intended to do when British and
American recognition is withdrawn
from 1t.
Il don't know" he said.
All I know is that the Polish
government in London desires to re-
main by the side of the Polish
armed forces who have served under
its leadership"
London Report Denied.
He denied, however, a London re-
port that the government was look
ing for sanctuary either in Fire or
Canada.
The spokesman refused to discuss
a report in the News Chronicle that
the exiled regime had received $3.50
0O0, 900 in credits from Britain since
its arrival here in 1910 to cover the
expenses of the president and gov
eminent departments.
The News Chronicle said pay
ments to Polish armed forces came
under a separate account of 81, 200, :
600 900 borne by British authorities
as part of their own war expendi-
ture.
The Polish forces are mostly sta
toned in Italy. Germany and
Britain.
Recognition Near.
A British Foreign Office common
tator said today that formal recog-
milton by the Big Three powers OF
the new Polish provisional govern
ment of national unity awaited only
assurance that the Yalta Confer
ence plan for Poland's future was
being carried out by the new admin
istration.
Part of that plan called for early
free elections in Poland.
When recognition comes, it will
mark the official end of the Polish
government in exile in London
headed by Tomas Arciszewski
which acted for occupied Poland
throughout the war.
Although the withdrawal of rec
ignition means the end of British
subsidies to the London Polish gov
eminent, the Foreign Office COM
mentator said the army probably
would be supplied pending a deci-
sion concerning it's disposition.
The new Warsaw government is
headed by Edward Osubka -Morawski
as Premier. The government, as
announced by the Warsaw radio
follows the lines agreed upon by the
British American Russian confer
ence in Moscow. 1t combines parts
of the old Soviet-sponsored Lublin
cabinet with representatives from
the Poles in London and from groups
inside Poland.
Mikola jczyk Vice Premier.
Stanislaw Mikolajczyk, former
Premier of the London exile gov
eminent, becomes Vice Premier in
the new government, and Wladyslaw
Gomolka, wartime underground
leader, also holds a vice premier

provisional government who resigned

The Foe Within

In our battle for justice we
must realize that there are
thousands of traitors within
)ur ranks-men and women
who, having mortgaged their
own craven souls to our en-
emies, are willing and anx-
lous to sell out our group for
4 mess Of pottage. In myriads
Of instances they have al
ready done so. Many Of these
beings are like moles which
burrow beneath the surface,
and they have by their perm
icious activities placed the
entire structure Of our rights
in peril. The vilest, cruelest,
most brutal, craftiest, most
cold-blooded outsp ken en-
emy is far less dangerous
than the vile, crafty, sinking,
snake-like burrowing foe
within!
