mad approximately 81 100000 in
rocket contracts during 1912. Dur
ing 1913, the expanding rocket pro-
duction program had shot up by
2,400 per cent over that of 1912.
And in 1914 the program was further
increased by another 400 per cent
over 1943 production, according to
the army ordnance department.
During 1915 the army will be
spending approximately S12,000,000
per month on rocket ammunition
alone, while the navy will produce
rockets for all branches of the
armed forces and will be RESPONSE
BILE for loading and testing the pro-
jectiles. The army will be respon-
sible for the manufacture of a rocket
propellant charge that will not dis
solve in ordinary solvents, such as
water, and of rockets of sizes not
produced by the navy.
New Types More Powerful.
Rockets used by the American
armed forces today, including the
navy's latest type airplane rocket
and the latest plane type used by
the army air forces, are even more
potent weapons than the bazooka,
which was the army's anti-tank
rocket first put into production in
1871, and first used in combat in the
North African invasions. According
to the National Defense Research
committee, rockets are accurate
weapons when fired from high speed
aircraft And the navy reports that
rockets fired from planes can be pin
pointed on the target.
In this war American rockets are
fired from naval craft, aircraft, and
from the ground or from ground ve-
hicles. Similar in principle to the

For greater penetration, as well
as more accuracy, rocket bomb
has been developed. A propelling
charge is set off just as the bomb
leaves the dive bomber. This added

Notes Of Ne,ospaperman:
Story Of a Song: Once upon a
time March, 1943) songwriter john
ny Burke dined at the home of Harry
Lillis Crosby. >. Gary, oldest son
OF Crosby, was spouting monosylla-
bic thunb-noses at the principles of
American education. In sum, he
hated school. Burke waved a
worldly finger. "My boy" he
said, "you should be glad you're 60
ing to school. How would you like
to be fish? A fish can't read
or write or 60 to ball games. All
he can do is swim around and when
he gets tired of swimming one way,
he turns around and swims the 9TH
er. If you like that sort of life, you
might grow up to be a fish,"
Mr.. Burke was impressed with his
own philosophy. . He fastened to
his partner, Jimmy Van Heusen, and
repeated the dissertation on fish. :.
As result, ''Swingin' on Star"
was born and cast in "Going My
Way" starring Bfhg. Soon after
the picture premiered the ditty made
The Hit Parade and stayed on it
for 20 straight weeks. It became
a minor national anthem with kids
who asked kin if they'd like to be
a fish or a mule. Clergymen
used the theme in sermons, and Joe
E. Lewis parodied: would you like
to hang on bar, with a dame like
Hedy Lamarr?" Very soon a
book on the theme will be published.
They may make a film based on its
story, too. :. Anyway, that's what
came of kid saying he didn't like
school and why ]. Burke and j. Van
Heusen pay surtaxes.

Dec. Probers Move Swiftly.
 Presidents Order
 Hailed by COP

Washington, Nov. g. (UP)-Re- publicans on the Pearl Harbor In- yestigating committee moved swiftly today to take advantage of the Presidential order giving them per- mission to interview all govern ment personnel.
 Reps. Bertrand w. Gearhardt, R.. Calf, and Frank B. Eeefe, R., Wis, sought an interview with Navy Capt Alvin D. Kramer as a potential witness for the investigation. Kram- CT was on the naval operations staff at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack
 The two Republicans made an un- successful attempt to see Kramer yesterday at the Bethesda, Md. naval hospital where, they charged he has been confined to pSycho- pathic ward. They planned to make another attempt today.
 Keefe said although he didn't contact Kramer on his first visit to the hospital, he did get support for his previous charge that the officer was confined to a psycho- pathic ward. The Navy has denied that either Kramer was in psycho- pathic ward or that he was being held incommunicado.

JopS Execute AUS. Flyers After Torture
Groves Are Found In Osoko Cemetery; Downed in Fort"

Tokyo, Nov. g. (UP)-The graves of IA American flyers, apparently executed only two days before Japan's first offer to surrender, have been found in a Japanese Military cemetery at Osaka, the Sixth Army announced today.
 It was the largest group of Amer ican airmen thus far disclosed to have been executed by the Japanese. Several such instances had pre- viously come to light, including the execution of three airmen who par ticipated in It. Gen. James Doo- little's first Tokyo raid early in 1942.
 The fate of the airmen, all Of whom were captured after bailing out over Osaka last June, was pieced together from crudely marked wooden blanks marking the graves and from evidence found in seven tiny, cement-walled cells, investi- gators said.
 Flyers Were Tortured
 Internees in the same prison unidentified by the Sixth Army said the flyers had been tortured by the Japanese secret police daily for nearly two months before they left their cells blindfolded on Aug. never to return.
 The flyers were forced to kneel for long periods with a bamboo pole back of their knees. They were marched daily to secret police head quarters several blocks away. On their return they showed evidence of mistreatment, fellow prisoners said.
 The weed-covered graves were found after a Korean informer told headquarters of the shooting down of 18 B-29 crewmen, who were brought into prison the next day

Murray Still
 Losing Fight
Leaders Express Views on Unity

Washington, Nov. 9-(UP) Labor spokesmen hinted cautiously today at the pos sibility of a united labor front at the Labor Manage ment conference.
 Even such rivals as CIO President Philip Murray and President John L. Lewis of the United Mine Work CTS were agreed on the desirability of unified labor program. The question, however, was whether they could find common ground for shunting aside their differences for the duration of the conference.
 Meanwhile, conference committees scheduled morning and afternoon sessions on such questions as col- lective bargaining, union responsi- bility and other involved in better ing relations between labor and management - the goal of the con- ferees.
 Labor delegates continued divided over the CIO resolution for bringing up the wage-price issue. But even in disagreement their public state ments revealed hopes for a united labor front for the duration of the meeting
 Lewis and Murray, who have been arguing bitterly over the wage ques- ton, each held press conferences at the conclusion of yesterdays ses- Sions.
 After explaining his opposition to MuTays wage stand, Lewis told re- porters he had heard no suggestion yet that the labor delegates get to- gether and draft program to sub- init to the conference within the agenda. The agenda so far does not include wages. Lewis left the defin- ite impression that he would be will ing to join in formulating such a program.
 Murray Optimistic
 At his press conference, Murray told reporters that he was very op- timistic" about a single labor move ment. T have hopes for a united labor front" he said.
 In discussing the wage issue, how ever, the two leaders revealed their wide differences.

The. seasons first cold wave. &C., conpanied by blllstery winds, moved across the north plain states and into the Great Lakes region today.
 Freezing temperatures were re- ported as far south as the Texas panhandle and the mercury tumb- bled to 13 below zero at Glasgow, Mont, coldest spot in the nation. Dickinson, N. D., shivered in low of nine below zero, and other sub zero readings were recorded throughout North Dakota, Minne- sota and Northern Colorado.
 Chilling blasts and wind gusts up to 60 miles an hour wrecked sign boards and toppled trees as the frigid wave sped south and east from Western Canada, head ed for the New England states.
 Pembina, N. D., was blanketed with nine inches of snow, and other North Dakota and Montana towns reported snov two to eight inches deep. Sixteen inches were piled up in the mountain passes of Montana and Idaho.
 The Federal foreeaster at Chi cago promised little immediate re- lief. warning that the cold snap would last until Sunday, when temperatures would recover slight ly, then dip again. Winter was here to stay, he said.
 Chicago residents basked in springlike TOP temperature yes- terday until the temperature plunged l5 degrees in 30 minutes and fell to 37 degrees by midnight.
