TWO LIMA
 ROCKS ARE
 OCCUPIED
Leathernelks Make Land ing-Enemy Sealed Up
 in Scores of Caves
By VERN HAUGLAND

Associated Press War Correspondent
 UNITED STATES FIG FLEET HEADQUARTERS, GUAM, March 14.-Elements of two Marine divisions landed unopposed Tuesday on two barren rocks off the west coast of Two Jima to end their use as mortar positions. The enemy has been lobbing shells from the rocks.
 The Leathernecks are advancing into the Kitano Point sector north ernmost on Two, where the Nippon ese are making last fierce stand. The rock landings and anphibious operations involve units of the Third and Fourth Marine divisions, and both landings flank the Two sector assigned to the Fifth Marine Diyi- sion.
 Admiral Nimitz' communique re- porting the landings described the two points as rocks"
 During the day on Two Jima 1l5 more in the maze of Japanese caves were sealed.
 Army fighters based on Two made new attacks north of Two Tuesday on the airfield and harbor of Chi chi in the Bonins. A communique belatedly listed attacks on Chichi, Sunday and Monday, by Army Lib- orators.

LONDON, March IA - Germany was mauled from the air for the thirtieth straight day as the U. S. Eighth Air Force, carrying the manpower equivalent of a full infantry division, made another mass bombardment of Nazi rail- ways, oil refineries, armament plants and submarine pens.
 Hundreds of Allied fighters pro- vided close cover to the Remagen bridgehead Other America n bombers from Italy struck into Hungary and Austria in support of Russian armies, hitting railyards at Komarom on the Danube and Wiener Neustadt, near Vienna.
 A giant force of 1,250 U. s. heavy bombers and $50 fighters from Britain split into a dozen attack groups after crossing the North Sea.
 The big daylight blows were fol- lowed by five prolonged stabs at targets between the Western Front and Berlin by British night bOmberS.

WOULD CHANGE MATANUSkA TO
 PUBLIC LANDS

A new memorial was introduced this morning in the House of Repre- sentatives under suspension of the rules, asking a change in land con- trols in the Matanuska Valley.
 The memorial, No. 21, authored by Representatives Peterson and Taylor, asks Congress and the President to take action to rescind the Executive Order and the Act which gives the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Corpor- ation control of and sale rights to MatanuSka lands.
 It is requested the sales power of Matanuska Valley lands be returned to the Public Lands Office.
 Before recessing to attend Senate hearings on the graduated fish trap licensing measure earlier passed by the House, Representatives let down the bars by unanimous vote to ad- init Senate Substitute for House Bill II, bill defining salary and powers of the Commissioner of La- bor.
 With but small number of House measures remaining on the calendar, Representatives will likely begin tomorrow to dig into Senate bills.
 One Senate bill, defining the sal- ary of the Director of the Unem- ployment Commission, number 42 has passed under suspension of the rules, giving director R. E. Sheldon a 25 per cent salary boost to $5,250.

LONDON, March 1.-The Japa- nese Diet, previously summoned only for one-day meeting, is being kept in session to deal with prob lems arising out of American air raids on the homeland, a Trans Ocean radio dispatch from Berlin said
 The Trans-Ocean dispatch said the Diet discussion covered air raid protection measures. and the mob- ilization of seamen for internal water traffic.
 A Tokyo broadcast said the Em- peror is ''grieved by the effects of indiscriminate bombing of Tokyo's suburbs" On March 10, the En- peror sent Court Chamberlain Hokodaijy to visit the stricken To- calities and report to him personal ly the extent of the damage, and the working out of relief measures"
 Tokyo's Stock Exchange was re- ported temporarily closed until conditions recover"
 The Trans-Ocean reports said American raids had compelled the reorganization of Jap papers, as Tokyo's six leading papers were printing out of one plant, and added the remaining paper print ing works will be moved outside the capital in readiness for even- tual emergencies"

Another Town Falls After Forced March Over
 Smugg|ers' Trail

l PAGODA HILL, M ANDALAY March Mandalay was rapidly being cleared of the Japanese army as infantry, artillery and tanks of the Indian Nineteenth Division smashed their way through the southern part of the city. Tanks and artillery firing point blank, blew up nests of Japs in the business and residential districts 300 feet below the vantage point of Pagoda Hill.
 Gurkha and Welsh troops, attack ing after a daring forty mile forced march over an opium smugglers' trail, captured the Burma Road town of Haymyo, 35 miles east and slight ly north of Mandalay. The fall of this town placed Allied forces in the path of Japs falling back along the Burma Road before the Chinese on- slaught from Lashion in an area 100 miles northeast of Lashio.

WAR GOODS FOR PACIFIC

Only temporary expedient has been the decision to keep war plants going almost full blast after the European war is over in order to supply goods for the Pacific war, instead of trying to ship European equipment to the Pacific.
 However, many experts believe the Japs will fold up quicker than generally expected, once their Axis partner is out of the fighting. Meanwhile almost nothing has been done about those 60,000,000 jobs.
 Only Cabinet member who has done any thinking on the subject is Henry Wallace; but now that the federal loan agencies have been taken away from him, his current Commerce Department job as supervisor of the Census, Patent Office, and the Geodetic Survey leaves him definitely circumscribed. Meanwhile, what most people don't lCdllDC ID clidC III Oul OCoc bOOiii times of peace, the most the United States ever employed was 48,000,000 people. Today we are employing 67, ,OOO 00O of whom 100000 are in the armed forces. When those F, 100000 come home and start looking for their old peace-time jobs, putting 6O,0OO,00O people to work is not going to be easy. Some real thinking might well be done about it.
 TEXAS RULES WASHINGTON After a month in Washington most people get the idea that Texas, not New York, is the Capital of the United States. Not only are there dozens of Texans in key positions in Congress and throughout the Government, but their energy makes them even more obvious than their numbers. But the Texas Congressional Delegation was caught short last week, when It nearly forgot that March was the Tooth anniversary of the inde- pendence of Texas. It even took a 'rock-ribbed Republican from Yer mont, Charles Plumley, to remind them of it. Plumley looked around to see what the Texans were plan- hing to do about commemorating their anniversary and to his sur prise found not single Texan on the floor.
 So Plumley arose and delivered a one-minute address congratulat- ing Texas and noting also that December 29 will be the tooth an-

The W ashingt ion Merry -Go- Round
By DREW PEARSON tLt. Col. Robert S. Allen now on active
 service with the Army.N

WASHINGTON-Although there has been a lot of easy-going talk about 6O,0O0,0OO jobs after the war, the backstage truth is that nothing tangible has been done about co., 0000O jobs or even 40,000.000 jobs, and some of the Administrations advisers are getting worried.
 What actually happened is that the President is concentrating so exclusively on the necessary job of winning the war and setting up a peace machinery for after the war, that domestic problems have gone by the board.
 Last fall, when German victory seemed just around the corner, certain Senators such as Kilgore of West Virginia and Murray of Montana gave lot of thought to reconversion and peace-time jobs So also did Donald Nelson. They did it, however, in the face of the military, who so bitterly objected to Nelson's plans that they even- tually persuaded the President to euchre him out of the War Pro- duction Board and off to China.
 After that came the temporary setback to U. s. forces in the Belgian Bulge, and since then no one around the War Production Board has wanted to talk about reconversion above whisper for fear of having the brass hats ac- cuse him of interfering with mili- tary operations.
