HERE ARE THE SIMPLE FACTS:

l. During the last year of the
war, the average General Motors
hourIy-rate worker earned
$56.93 per week.
This is based on actual records of the
money paid and the number of people
working. To earn this money they
worked an average of $50 hours per
week.
4. The public demand for GM
products and services is enough
to keep our plants working at
the wartime level of 45 to 49
hours weekly.
During the period of shortages, we
plan to operate at this rate, barring
work StOppages due to causes beyond
our control. In fact. some of our plants
were working IS hours week when
the strike was called. The number of
people employed when reconNcrsion is
completed and our new plants and
facilities are in production, will be
larger than before the war.

Armory Lost By Fire

Portland, Me, Feb. 24-(UP)-A fireman was killed and three other men were injured today when 6 spectacular general alarm fire and explosions wrecked the Stevens av- enue armory. Fire officials believed damage might reach $300,000.
 Fireman Thomas L. Walsh, 42, was crushed to death beneath a wall that toppled under the force of an ex- plosion that could be felt through out the city.
 Hospitalized with various injuries were fire Capt. Robert H. Flaherty, fireman Arnold E. ThurloW and po- lice Sgt. John J. O'Brien. Thurlow was reported most seriously hurt.
 For three hours firemen and other emergency workers battled the blaze as the area near the fire was shaken by series of explosions of highly combuStivle materials within the building.
 Fire chief Oliver T. Sanborn said AAt the blaze apparently started in 6 section of the armory that has seen in use as garage. Despite streams of water played on this sec- tion, the flames spouted 40 feet into the air and rapidly swept through the building until it was reduced t1 a mVss of twisted ruins.
 The armory was used as a center for the induction of Maine men into the armed forces and all records used by induction officials paparent- ly were destroyed.

Washington, February "A. = CUP) The Weather Bureau said today that recent thaws have practically ended the danger of Spring floods in the northeast except for northern New York and central and north ern New England.
 The heavy snow cover over much of the northeast. the Bureau said, "has been diminished considerably by mild weather and moderate rain during the past week."
 But in a large part of New York and New, England, the snow re- mains deep, and 8 delayed spring thawing in conjunction with rain could produce a flood hazard, the Bureau said. It added, however, that "the prospect of serious flood is a possibility and not a proba- bility."
 The bureau said there is no flood Hlreat at present from melting snow In the Ohio valley. The middle and lower Ohio is rising as a result of rains, however, and stages "at or slightly above" flood level are in sight,

Final Manila seOpened
BY WILLIAM B. DICKINSON

Manila, Feb. 24-(UP)-Theb battle for Manila virtually ended today as American troops captured all but three of the enemy-held buildings in the devastated ancient walled city.
 Front reports said tank-supported infantrymen were attacking the last Japanese positions in a church and small sections on the west and south sides of the IntramurouS area.
 The final assault on the Japanese in Manila followed a combined land amphibious attack by the 37th Di- vision which preached the ancient wall around IntramuroS.
 Following in the wake of a thun- derous artillery bararge, which vir- tually flattened the old Intramuros section, the American troops which stormed through and over the medieval wall from the east and across the wide Pasig river on the north
 The double attack, which was joined inside the walled city, was expected to quickly end organized Japanese resistance in Manila, all though it may be several days be- fore the last fanatical enemy is mopped up.
 The destruction of the final rem nants of the enemy's trapped gar rison in South Minila is in its final phases" Gen. Douglas Macarthur said in his communique.

Forts Hit pore
By FRED SCHERFF

Washington, Feb. "A - (UP) - The biggest fleet of SuperfortreSses ever to take off from India today bombed Singapore crossroads of war traffic between Japan and her stolen southern empire.
 Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of demolition and incendiary bombs were rained on Singapore's extensive and Well-established dock and har- Dor facilities in the fouth B-29 day. light attack of the war on the naval stronghold.
 A Singapore broadcast recorded by the EGG said the giant bombers caused some damage" to harbor facilities and the city itself during an hour and a half-long raid begin- ming at 10:30 a. m. Singapore time.
 The bombers attacked in a dozen waves, Singapore said. At least nine planes were damaged, the broadcast said.
 The 20th Air Force, in announcing the raid, for the first time described a Superfortress raiding armada from India as large an indication that 1t totalled well over 100 bom- bers. A Tokyo broadcast heard by the EGG said 130 B-20s participat- ed.
 Results will be announced after operational reports have been re- ceived from Brigadier General Roger M. Ramey'S 20th bomber com- mand, the 20th Air Force said

Hook, Rankin
 Fiqht Ended

Washington, Feb. 24-CUP)-The fight between Rep. Frank Hook, D., Mich. and Rep. John E. Rankin, D., Miss, appeared ended today in spite of move which threatened to send it into another round.
 Hook has apologized to the mem- bership for calling Rankin "Iar".
 The MiSSissippian, who touched off his floor fight by accusing the lat ter of CommuniStic affiliations, has likewise made 8 conciliatory state ment to the house.
 Congressional leaders seemed in- clined to let that close the incident.
 They predicted that the subse- quent resolution introduced by Rep. Howard w. Smith, D., Va, to cen- sure Hook would die in the rules committee to which 1t was referred.
 Any counter move against Rankin also was likely to receive similar treatment from the rules committee, they declared.
 A revival of the difference they added, would reflect upon the dig nity of the house.
 Acting Speaker John w. McCor- mack, D., Mass, said he felt the membership was satisfied" with the statements of the principals.
 T believe these should constitute a solution of the incident" he said.
 Hook refused comment on Smiths action. Rankin remarked only that he would leave the matter up to the membership"

Bus Operator Soys Okoy To $52 Question

Cleveland, Feb. A. )-Delbert s. Mobiles, 8 new bus driver for the Cleveland Transit system, was hailed by group of 20 men near 8 bus stop on the city's east side.
 The men wanted Mobiles to take them downtown to a hotel where they were to attend meeting. They offered Mobiles $2O to let them char ter the bus for the special 20-miIe trip. but he declined.
 I've got a schedule to keep" the driver said. T wouldn't consider the proposition for $50"
 This sent the group of men into a huddle and then 8 spokesman of- fered Mobiles $52 for the trip. Mobiles looked back at the empty seats in the bus and then decided to take the offer.
 Later, when Mobiles reported his deal to his superiors, he proudly turned over the $52. He figured he had made good bargain, even though he had lost one complete round trip of his schedule.
 Company officials "bawled the devil out of" Nobles, but secretly admired him for being so honest and for keeping the company up- permost in his mind.

Governn1ent Set To Return 70 Coal Mines To O1vners

Washington. Feb. 24-(UP)-The government prepared today to re- turn approximately 70 bituminous coal mines in three states to their owners prior to the start of wage negotiations between operators and the United Mine Workers next week.
 The mines in western Pennsyl- vania, West Virginia and Kentucky were seized last September and Co., tober to end strikes by the United Clerical, Technical and Supervisory EmployeS' union, an affiliate of dis trict 50 of the UNIV. The union had defled War Labor orders to end the strikes
 The VILE subsequently, appointed a panel to hear the issues which caused the work stoppages and that three-man board is now writing a report.
 Return of the mines was regarded as conciliatory gesture toward UNIV President John L. Lewis who vigor- ously protested the reported inten- ton of the Interior Department to invoke the prison penalties of the Smith . ConnalIy anti . strike law

against strikers in any of the gov- ernment-controlled mines.
 Lewis news publication that con- tinued government control was part of plot" to deny UNIV wage con- sessions in the forthcoming negotia- tions. Other agencies accused were the Office of Price Administration, Office of Economic Stabilization and the War Labor board.
 The government was criticized on another score by J. D. Battle, exec utive secretary of the National Coal Association, who said the recent Selective Service move to step up inductions of deferred men under 30 would be solar plexis blow" to the coal mines.
 Battle said the new draft policy would take seven out of 10 miners under 30 now deferred as essential war workers, and would "aggravate an already difficult situation and set in motion a chain of events that will be incredibly costly to the war effort"
 The National Coal association is composed of bituminous coal pro- ducers in all sections of the country.

 He was surprised among other things that the same man was still president
 He didn't even know that the world was embroiled in another war
 He was conv1kceG that failure to register for selective service was a serious thing He was held on a charge of draft evasion as well as stealing from Government Forest Rangers whom he had led merry chase for years.
 T went into the hills when Roose- welt beat Hoover" the bearded, al minutive Morland said. 'The Fed" erals have been after me ever sincr for borrowing clothes and stuff from their Ranger stations. didn't Wanl to go to jail"
 Morland surrendered peacefully when the Rangers finally slipped up on him. He gave them his .22 cali- bre rifle and was ready to plead guilty to pilfering from them when he was taken before U. s. Comm1s- sioner E. B. Steele at Orfino.
 "You're also charged with failure to register for the draft" Steel told him.
 ITO fight in war?" asked Mor- land.
 "Yes," said Steele.
 Who got us into that?" demand ed Morland.
 The Federal Bureau of Investiga- tion reportedly was looking Sor some other explanation for Morland's leaving his Kentucky home for the wilds of Idaho. He had served two prison terms in Orkansas, they said.
 Snowshoed forest rangers closed in on Morland's hideout deep in the mountains near the ho-Montana line after trailing him for several days.
 The little man-he is slightly more than five feet tall-was ragged, bearded and dirty. His lower teeth
