The production achievement
Of the PascaRoula wards throws
revealing light on the growth of
Southern productive capacity
when compared with the record
Of Pascagoula shipbuilding in the
last war. During that war a to-

launched the Excheuuer. These
were riveted ships, 1886 feet long
and Of 52-foot beam, with only a
single deck and powered by 1000
horsepower coal-burning engines.
The vessels were built for the
Italian government. A number
of other o%cean-going vessels were

 That will mean, a first major Japanese stand in the Hangchow- Shanghai-Nanking triangle. Sand bag barricades were being built in the streets of Shanghai and trench es were being dug south of the city. The Japanese garrison with in the triangle has been increased to a strength of 160,0oo by the arrival of the Seventh Army corps.
 While at home, the Japanese ap- pear to choose to disregard com- pletely Bull" Halsey's dampaging tattleships and the thousand of American bonbers which have al- ready virtually destroyed 43 great Nippon cities, it becomes increas- ingly apparent that Japan has chos- en to fight the decisive battles of this war on the Asiatic mainland.
 This decision might mean the sacrifice of the home islands after a bitter defense, but continuation of the war on the Asiatic mainland with the decisive battle somewhere in central-eastern China, perhaps in the Yangtze or Yellow river val- leys or on the Plains of Hopeh.

Movie MoguIs Make Move

Hollywood, July 19.-(UP)-Moyie poducers, fearing that more than 4,000 employees in four key unions would join the 1e-week- k-old studio strike by next week, today threat ened an injunction suit to halt a major threat to movie production.
 Strike leader Herbert Sorrell said he wouldn't be surprised" if the screen office employees, publicists, cartoonists ond story analysts were all oil their jobs next Monday as a result of an endorsement of the walkout by Painters Union Interna- tional President L. P. Lindelof.
 Loss of the 5000 office employees guild members would be a crippling blow, the Motion Picture Producers Association said, adding it would take legal action to prevent the walkout.
 The contract now existing be- tween SODG and major studios specifically forbids a strike or par ticipation in any strike even though other unions may be out, on strike" !" a producers statement said.
 The four guilds are afIiliated with the Conference of Studio Unions and with the Painters Union whose Local 1421 started the walk out last March 12 in a dispute with International Alliance of Theatrical and Stage Employees Local 40 over Jurisdiction of 77 studio set dressers.

and blow a vital iron and steel industry to bits.
 Manchuria, and not Honshu, is the heart of the Japanese fortress. Beyond the reach of our bombers and our fleet, until now, the vital Japanese armament industry has been decentralized in Manchuria. Since 1888, the Japanese high com .rnand has kept at all times at least 35 divisions in Manchuria although they have never had a fight since the affair at the junction of the borders of Manchuria, outer Mon solia and inner Mongolia in the summer of 1889 - when Marshal Zhukov whipped the Japanese 9th army romdly.
 Japan knows no more than we do of Stalin's intentions. But they do know that Russia has denounced her pact and that Stalin's hands will be free. Immediately after that Russian diplomatic act, Japan began the present gigantic redeploy- nent of forces.
 Manchufia Problem
 It is clear today that Japan can not withdraw from Manchuria with out sacrificing her only sources Of war materials that are still safe from attack. So her whole posi- tion on the Asiatic mainland has been shifted to strengthen that Manchurian fortress.
 Inner Mongolia was the weakest of Manchuria's Hanks, so to strengthen it, the imperial gen. eral staff decided to abandon all O. South China after its destruction and to hold only. as long as pos sible and at not too great cost, as many China coast ports as pos sible and the Manning -Hankow railway if it can be done.

16O Years Of Court
 History Tabulated
Local Bar Association KeenIy Interested in Work of
 Richard H. Phillips; l2,OOO Decisions Listed

Members of the Waterbury Bar Association in September will have the use of the first comprehensive digest of 160 years of decisions by the State Supreme Court of Er- rcrs. The unique and thorough digest, which took ten years to pre- pare, is expected to be of invalu- able aid to lawyers of the state.
 The project was undertaken in 1885 by Richard H. Phillips, re- porter of judicial decisions of the high court and one of the states foremost students of law. The State Legislature in 1o41 authorized pulp llcation of the digest.
 12,OOO Cases
 Material in the previous digestS was used in compiling the reports of the 120o0 cases decided by the Supreme Court, but 1t was complete ly re-classified and re-ararnged, and a sirnplified method of locat- ing points of law was devised.
 The digest, which begins with the reports of Ephrairn Kirby, 1785- 1788, will appear in three volumes, totaling 2,500 pages, and will cover 137 volumes of Connecticut Reports Pocket supplements, bringing it up to date, will be issued every two years.
 Copies of the digest are expected to be obtained by the Waterbury Bar Library in the county court house building on Kendrick avenue early in the fall. Publication has Eeen set for about Sept. l.
 MT. Phillips, in a report on the new digest in the current issue of the Connecticut Bar Journal, states, TO fit all this material into a modern scheme of classification was an undertaking of some complex ity. 50 the card method was adopt cd"
 15O,OOO Cards
 Each iteTn," he states, twas typed on . separate card and each of the l50,O0O cards was separately studied and classified. The items in the older publications have been con- siderably amplified through com- par1son with the annotations to the General Statutes and ther sources"
 ''The older digests used less corn- plete statements of the law in the cases than are currently employed, but this fact has been of advantage in making possible the publication of the entire digest in three vol- umes. AS the law substantially re- stated every decade, the lawyer can usually find his authority in the more complete statements used in Nsesting the f4ter cases, and this will become increasingly true as the supplements become larger.
 "In arranging the material, each title has been divided into as many subdivisions as appeared feasible witiAout making the classiflcations themselves too complicated. Thus, for example, Automobile has 37

Jap Situation Offers Muny Complexities
BY RALPH HEINZEN United Press War Analyst)

Japanese failure to fire even a pistol against the array of battle ships and cruisers, lying barely l. 900 yards ,off-shore as they fired screaming salvos into the Japan ese homeland, and the steady re- treat northward through South China of enemy armies can be attributed only to one reason: Japan is in the midst of a gigantic re- ceployment of all her forces inn posed by our mastery of the Pacific air and waters and the Russian de- nunciation of the Russo-Jap &C., cord.
 There are many indications that the enemy is deliberately withhold ing its fire against our raid!ng 3d fleet.
 It may save face at home but it offers no real explanation for ra- dic Tokyo to say that Admiral Will liam F. Bull" Halsey's fleet and carrier attacks were no surprise and did not catch the Japanese naval and air forces mapping. It may help at home to say that they knew all the tme that Halsey was going to strike but that flor strate- sic reasons" they would not reply.

numbered subtitles as against 1T in the 1884 digest. Evidence has 100 as against 34, and. Wills has 69 as against 25.
 Suitable Titles
 While modern systems of classi- fication in other publications have been studied and used with Adapta- tions, the primary aim has been to devise a scheme for each title suit- able to the Connecticut cases and any peculairities of the Connecticut law.
 When each successive supple ment is issued, as authorized by the 1945 General Assembly, the old one may be thrown away. Instead of the old system of Roman numerals, each division and subdivision will have its own Arabic numeral, and the same titles and numbered divi- sions and divisions will be used in the pocket supplements, so that once case in point is found it may be followed down to date with the least possible expenditure of tirne."

To it have been ada ed citations to the annotated sys- tenn of American cases for all cases which have been reported therein. The digest also contains a table of Connecticut cases appealed to the United States Supreme Court and a list of obituaries and biographies published in the Connecticut Re- ports.
