 Herford, Germany, Sept. l.-(UP) Two more German field marshals Walter Won Brauchitsch and Fritz Won MannStcin - today ap. peared well on the road to the war criminal trials at Nuremberg.
 Both men have been interned, Field Marshal Sir Bernard L. Mott gomerys headquarters disclosed last night. Neither was included in the original list of Germans who would be tried, and the British press bitterly protested their omis- sion.
 Slave Labor Advocate
 Brauchitsch is a particularly vul- nerable target for the British be- cause it was recently discovered that he signed plans ordering the de- portation to Germany for slave la- bor of all British bales between IT and 4S. He also signed most of the documents in the secret book Military Government of England" which revealed how Germany would handle the British situation after winning the war.
 But Brauchitsch, long considered as "too conservative" by Hitler, is believed to have thrown all his in- fluence against the invasion of Britain because he believed Ger many's limited naval power in- adequate.

Higher Prices ForeSeen

Washington, Sept. 1.-(UP)-I$t looks as though men will have to pay hgiher prices for their cotton shirts and work clothing this fall.
 There's a pretty good chance civ- ilians may have to put out a little more money for their new radios than the last ones made cost.
 This outlook is the result of two moves by the Office of Price Ad- ministration.
 In the first the OPA granted price increases ranging from approxi- mately per cent to PAX per cent for a number of cototn textiles at the mill.
 At the same time 1t announced increases of 5 to II per cent in the ceiling prices for tubes and other radio parts.
 Tn neither case is the OPA yet sure to what extent these increases will affect prices to consumers.

Jop Floating Mines Seen As Menace

With 7th Fleet Task Force, Aug, 3i-(UP) An ominous suggestion that the formal surrender eeTe. render ceremonies will not end the silent war" in the Yellow Sea was given today when special anti mine precautions were invoked for vessels of this force after several floating mines had been spotted.
 Typh0onS Responsible
 It was believed that typhoons of the last week, which caused a 4s. hour postponement in the entrance into Tokyo Bay, wrenched many mines loose from their moorings, The storms were extremely severe and could easily have freed many units of the Japanese Sea barrier.
 Yellow Sea waters are compara- lively shallow. Japan, after her sur- render offer, made known the loca- tions ofextensive mine fields which virtually pave" the entrances to the sea and it's ports. However. knowledge of the mine field loca- tions is no defense against fioaters torn loose by the storm.
 seton By Rifie-Fire
 The sighted mines were dealt with by rifiemen accompanying destroyers. Special lookouts and rifle squads were posted by all ships Of this force and paravane equipment was broken out as an adder precaution.
 Mine experts say the doaters are drifting with the currents and could continue to be a menace to yeacetime navigation of Oriental waters long after the wars end.

 More Co Benefit
 The CIO said the VILE decision gives the vacation benefit to ser- vlcemen who returned to work not later than June. The number bene- fitted this year will se increased greatly for the next period of June, i94e, because many more VIII have then returned from the service, acc cordlng to the CTO.
 While the plan differs somewhat In detail from company to company, in each case 1t calls for Q weeks vacation with pay after one years service and two weeks after five years, with war service and time on the lob added to determine into which classification servicenen fall
