 GEN. DOUGLAS MacARTHUR'S HEADQUARTERS ON LUzON IS- LAND, Jan. 31.---Another American Army was thrown into the battle for Luzon Island Monday morning when clements of Lieut.. Gen. Rob- ert Eichelberger new Eighth Army swept to a completely unopposed landing just north of Subic Bay on the west coast of Luzon and by nightfall they had driven Il miles inland toward junction with the Sixth Army which was within 30 miles of Manila.
 The new Eighth Army Tanks, landing at San Narcisco and San Antonio, seiZing five miles of the beachhead, 60 air line miles north west of Manila, took the airfield at San Marcelino in a quick drive to seal the fate of the Japs retreating to Bataan and also captured the vital Subic Bay naval base.
 Not man was lost in the amphi-  oious operation which caught the Japanese completely by surprise.
 Not Japanese gun nor Japa- nese plane attempted to interfere or even observe as the Thirty eighth and Twenty fourth division troops nit zamabales Province coast beach, es which were lined with flag-wav- ing and cheering Filipinos.
 The American flag had been planted by the Filipinos and was so clearly visible on the Subic Bay shorelines as the convoy of more than 100 vessels approached, that Rear Admiral Arthur Struble called off the customary prelanding bonn bardment
 The new landing will prevent the Japanese in the Clark Field and Fort Stotsenburg area from falling back on Bataan and will also trap the Japanese in the Zamabales Mountains on Luzon's northeast coast.

 Indications were that the Ger mans are preparing to fight street by street for Berlin.
 zielenzig is 62 miles from Berlin's city limits proper

The W ashington Merry -Go Round
By DREW PEARSON Ct Col. Robert S. Allen now on active service with the Army.J

WASHINGTON-The fight over Jesse Jones and Henry Wallace boils down largely to one thing: Control of the tremendous war machinery of the US.A. after the war is over.
 It is a repetition of World War i all ovvI again-only on a much greater scale, a scale that will affect the lives of the American people for years to come.
 With the beginning of World War l. Woodrow Wilson's reforms the income tax, the Federal Re- serve, the Federal Trade Commis- sion-Were frozen. They gave way to the war. And after the arnistice, Wilson, busy with the Versailles Conference and the League of Ma tions fight, let the war factories of the country be dismantled or converted by private industry to their own use, or in some cases remain idle.
 The Nitrogen-Fertilizer Plant at Wilson Dam, now part of the Ten nessee Valley. Authority, languished for 12 long years-the years of Harding, Coolidge and Hoover during which they were the center of a bitter controversy between Government and private operation, until finally Roosevelt established the IVA.
 At the end of the last war, the nation had enough gunpowder plants to manufacture billion pounds of powder. But they were all tufned over to private industry and converted. At the beginning of this war in 1889, the U. s. Army had only two weeks supply of gun powder on hand. All the powder factories had to be built up over again.

Is II your impression that you
haven't nearly enough sugar TO put
mp the quantity Of fruit you'd like
this year? Well, perhaps you're
lucky enough 10 be surrounded by
all sorts of fruit orchards. Or per.
haps you're accustomed TO can
your fruits in a heavy or medium
syrup and now that your allotment
has been cut 25 per cent from last

First, let me point out TO you
that IL you add a small amount OF
sugar directly to the fruit. instead

too. to use a thin syrup, which
means you use two pounds OF
sugar TO a gallon Of water Tha,
goes q long way. A moderately
thin syrup is made with three
pounds OF sugar TO gallon OF
water. We've got a pretty strong
sweet tooth in this America Of
ours. But it's really quite easy
TO reduce the amount and learn to
like 1t. Try and see.
Now, to our main point: can
you can without sugar? Yes. That
is TO say. fruit will keep IL it's

Reduced Sugar Ration Need
Not Interfere With Canning


Juicy fruits. such as berries.
cherries, currents and plums should
be canned in their own juice when
sugar is not used. For these water
is not required. Less juicy fruits,
unless you have an exceptionally
ripe and plentiful crop. If canned
without sugar, require the addition
of water. They must be briefly pre-
cooked before going into the Jars
and would burn II water were not
added. But be sure TO use the
minimum amount OF water so that
you may preserve as much fruit
flavor as possible.
II you have a good timetable
for canning fruits. follow its d..
rections for canning fruits with
sugar or syrup and substitute water
Gin small quantity for the syrup.
Process exactly as you would fruit

ment OF Agriculture Bulletin Home

So you may with safety can

remember to use the method only

President Truman has made his

unnecessary and unwise for him
