Chinese Holds Fifty Miles Of South China Coast

CHUNGKING, July 20-(P)-A fifty mile stretch of the south China Coast is firmly in Chinese hands and open for a seabo-ne ln- vasion of the continent the Cnin- csc command said. Chinese forces are striking eastward along the Kwangtung province coastal high way from the town of Tinpak, which they recently took, thereby severing Jap communications be- tween Canton and Hainan island, and reached the vicinity of the road junction city of Yeungkong fifty miles from Tinpak, one hun dred twenty-five miles southwest of Canton.
 The Chinese army spokesman, Maj. Gen. Chi Chin said the Japs had moved one hundred thousand troops in Human province to the coast in Shangtung in the past four weeks, anticipating American landings.
 It is estimated that there are a million Jap combat troops in China and Manchuria plus an equal number of auxiliaries. t is said that Jap sea traffic between the islands and China has been interrupted and no troops have recently moved in either direction

 Men employees of the Consoli- dated Timber Company, on whose property the tiny village lies, are all on the fire line. The blaze is barely visible through the smoke which is so thick that lights might be turned on in the late afternoon.
 There were only smouldering embers near the town htis morn ing. Meanwhile on the opposite end of the giant blaze the flames were moving westward in what foresters described as fluid state"

Oil Prices Down In Nome Area

Carl Lomen, manager of the Lo- men Commercial Company, an- nounced today that Standard Oil had reduced prices, at most points in Alaska, on gasoline, kerosene and heating oils, effective as of July 19.
 The reductions range from M to 11S cents per gallon on heating oils at all points in Alaska, while in southwestern points gasoline and kerosene dropped 1s to 1R cents per gallon.
 These were the third voluntary decreases made by the company since September 1922, and were made possible partly by cuts in War Shipping Administration tanker surcharge rates and partly by operating economies.

President Speaks At Flagraising Over Berlin

POTSDAM, July 2O - (Ho - President Truman, speaking at the symbolic flagraising over con- quered Berlin, said that United States wanted not one piece of ter ritory, but peace and prosperity in the world as a whole"
 The speech had great signifi- canoe against it's background of the Big Three conference, where the President is joining with Brit ain and Russia in helping to settle European boundary and other problems. "We are raising this flag in the name of the people of United States who are looking for ward to better world, a peace full world in which all people have the opportunity of enjoying peace and prosperity"
 and prosperity"
 Truman said that the stars and stripes raised over the United States group council headquarters in the former headquarters of Germany's air defense was the flag that flew over the Capitol in Washington on the day United States entered the war against the Axis. It flew over Algiers when it was General Eisenhower's head quarters, and over Rome when the first Axis capital was cap- tured. It is destined to be raised over Tokyo.
 President Truman told soldiers picked from the infantry of the Second Armored Division that they had proved conclusively that free people can look after the affairs of the world"
 The President, Secretary of War Stimson, and Generals Eisenhower and Patton reviewed the Division. The President spoke after Vice Admiral Land, chief of the United States Maritime commission and War Shipping Administrator ar rived with his staff in response to a special request by President Truman. Q
 The Presidents message was in- terpreted by some of his listeners as meaning the United States in- sisted on the peace and welfare of the average man being more important than territorial disputes and boundaries.

pay little attention to the signals ex-

you saw was something else again

guise that they did not disturb the

pay nevertheless.

Timber Resources

Timber is the greatest resource of
both Sweden and Finland. In Swe-
den, forests cover 56.5 per cent of
the land area, and in Finland as
much as 67.2 per cent. The forests
are composed mainly of spruce and
pine go per cent in Sweden and Y
per cent in Finland). Birch is the
most common hardwood. The great
est timber-producing area in Swe-
den lies in Norrland. Here the land
slopes to the southeast and all the
rivers flow in the same direction
from the snowy mountainous back
bone of Scandinavia into the Gulf of
Bothnia. This provides low-cost log
transport since the mills are locat-
ed near the mouths of the rivers
and have the advantage of direct
ocean shipment.

Simple Methods Check
Ravages of Tiny Moth

OF all household pests, the most
devastating is the delicate little
moth. Each year it is responsible
for millions of dollars worth OF
damage to fabrics and furs. Last
summer was record season for
such losses. Yet homemakers can
bring this damage down to almost
zero by simple methods: cleanli-
ness, the use of preventive chemi-
Gals, and the proper packing and
storage of wooden garments while
not in use.
The need for preventive treat
ment is greater now than ever be-
fore. Ruin Of a single garment may
not seem a disaster to the person
who has money to replace it, but
multiplied by many garments it be-
comes a serious matter when every
additional yard of fabric requires
vital raw materials and more man.
power. n
Whenever possible, garments sub
ject to moth damage should be
washed before storing to rid them
of the soil, spots, and grease which
are so attractive to the moth. Over
coats and other articles that cannot
60 into the washtub should be dry
cleaned or should at least be
brushed thoroughly to remove dirt
from pockets, seams, folds and
hens, and should be hung in the
sun for several hours. They should
then be treated with a moth
preventive and placed in clean,
absolutely alright container or
wrapped tightly in clean news
papers.

Honenaker Needs Executive Ability
To Serue Company Meals Without Maid
By ELIZABETH MacRAE BOYKIN

It listens fine this talk about ro-
mantle meals in an orchard or in
the garden, but what about the worn-
an who has to do the work. Of
course, in novels there's always q
maid or a butler at beck and call.
But life for most of us is without
benefit of servants and so turns out
to be only as attractive and pleas
ant as we can make it under our
own steam. And that doesn't in
clude unnecessarily long journeys
back and forth from here to there
carrying large trays and heavy
pitchers.
Not unless there are lots of will
ing helpers and some very slick
advance planning. The most indis-
pensable ingredient is to have
family cooperation in fetching and
carrying. But just being the execu-
tive in the case takes a special tai
ent-and some paper work.
The first thing to write down is
the menu, and it should be delicious
but it must be simple. Then figure
out ways and things to serve with
