Woman Sues TO Collect
$4,000 Insurance Policy

Mrs. Alice M. Farkas, 1891 Ingle-
side terrace NV, yesterday filed
suit in District Court asking $4,000
from an insurance company which
she charges accepted premium to
insure her husband and now refuses
to pay that amount in insurance
because he died before a formal
policy was issued.
The defendant was named as the
Life Insurance Co. of Virginia, with
Offices in the Transportation Build
ing here.
Mrs. Farkas said that on Septem-
Der 81, 1914, her husband, Leslie
applied for the 5000 policy in
writing, to be payable on his death
to his wife. The suit said the
insurance firm accepted the first
annual premium on October 4, 1o44,
after Mr.. Farkas was given a physi-
cal examination. Mr.. Farkas died
on December Is of that year, the
action stated.
The suit declared that "by the
terms of the application, $1,000
became due to her on the death of
her husband" and charges the de
PENDANT has refused to pay"
Mrs. Farkas also charges that by
failing to issue a formal policy with
in a reasonable time the firm gave
her reason to believe the application
was accepted and caused her and
her husband to refrain from obtain
ing insurance from another source

Jackson Promised
Southern Support
For Committee Posi-

A group of influential Southern
Democrats in the House have given
their support to Representative
jackson, Democrat, of Washington
for the Craftsmanship of the House
Committee on n-American Activi-
ties, it was learned today.
The 33-year-old Washington State
legislator, known as one of the most
outstanding liberals in the House,
is the choice of administration lead
ers for the post, but it had been re-
ported that Southern Democrats
were lining up to block his appoint
ment.
However, a group of Southern leg
iSlatorS led by Chairman Doughton
of the powerful House Ways and
Means Committee which will select
| a chairman, has assured him of their
support. All but one member of the
Ways and Means Committee have
indicated they will vote for Mr..
jackson as chairman of the COM
mittee.
Opposition to Mr.. Jackson as
chairman of the committee was
voiced last week by Acting Chair
man Rankin. Representative Hart,
Democrat, of New Jersey recently
resigned the Craftsmanship because
of i'll health.
In stating his objection to Mr..
Jackson, Mr.. Rankin said that mo
member should be selected for this
post who opposed the creation of
this committee or who is opposed to
the purposes for which it was
established"
Mr.. Jackson has informed admin
istration leaders that he will take
the job only if he is assured support
of the committee membership and
the right to select his own investi-
gators. Under the present setup,
the investigators are selected by the
committee, rather than by the
chairman.

War Production Needs Up
AS Results of Nazi Drive

Explaining the sudden need for in
creased output, WPB Chairman Krug
said:
Eisenhower has been doing every
thing he could to break through the
West Wall. If he could have done it
promptly, the munitions we had un-
der procurement would have been suf-
ficient. But he couldn't.
"Now, to safeguard against what
will come, in addition to what has
happened, we must get ready to fight
the kind of war we have been fighting
for the past two months for another
year-and perhaps longer"
Mr.. Krug declared that while sup
plies needed to halt the German often
sive were within reach of American
forces, the vigor of the enemy's attack
emphasized "the need for concentrated
heat on the production program"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1945-01-05

Washington, D. C.-The destructive
Nazi offensive on the western front
has greatly increased war production
needs, Government leaders announced
AS a result new orders have been
rushed to war plants, manpower re-
strictions have been frightened up all
along the line and the reconversion
program has been halted in it's tracks.
Labor leaders, headed by AFL
President William Green, exhorted
the nations workers to stay on the
job under any circumstances and to
do their utmost to boost vitally needed
production of war materials.
AFL unions responded by rushing
skilled workers to plants listed as
"critical" by the War Production
Board and the War Department.
Meanwhile, it was officially con-
firmed in testimony before the Senate
War Investigating Committee that
American soldiers at the front have
not suffered from any lack of ammu-
milton or fighting equipment due to
production lags at home.
This testimony was given by Gen
eral Brehon B. Somervell, chief of
the Army Service Forces. In re-
sponse to questions by worried Sen
ators who had been distrusted by news
paper headlines and radio broadcasts
of munitions shortages at the fighting
fronts, Somervell declared:
"Make no mistake about it; no one
has suffered from lack of supplies.
The boys at the front have had every
thing they could possibly move to the
front.
"Our problem is to keep them from
suffering from a lack of supplies in
the future"
Senator James M. Tunnel asked
Somervell about stories that our sol
diers have had to be "rationed' am
munition in some spots because of
shortages.
"That's because Of difficulties of
getting ammunition from the ships to
the guns and not because of any fail
ure of production" Somervell replied
He added that some munitions are
now being used up at greater rate
than they are being produced, thus
eating into reserves. What's vital
how, he said, is to replenish those re-
serves, and that's why the army is
clamoring for sharply increased pro-
duction.
Further confirmation came from
Associated Press War Correspondent
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1945-01-05

AS we enter our fourth year of war,
American workers are determined
that it shall be the last.
Labor issues this New Year warn
ing to the enemy-that in the months
ahead the soldiers of production will
back up the fighting forces of the
United Nations with the greatest out
put of planes, tanks, guns and ships
in history.
This constantly increasing flow of
war production is the best evidence
that America grows ever stronger
while our enemies grow progressive
ly weaker. 1t is the most convincing
proof that final victory cannot be
long delayed. The Nazis and the Japs
are up against it now but they are
doomed to suffer much more crush

Wes Gallagher. Reporting from the

denting American lines, he said in a
dispatch dated Dec. 21:
There undoubtedly are multiple
reasons for the American setback and
it is going to take weeks, and per-
haps months, to assess them truly.
1t was not due, however, to any short
age of men and material in the broad
sense.

men and materials along the western
front and no instance has come to

ions will have an important mission

NEW YEAR MESSAGE
By WILLIAM GREEN President American Federation of Labor

less we accord justice to the peoples
of all nations, unless we give them
every opportunity to work out their
postwar problems through free and
democratic self-government, another
war is sure to follow. Territorial par
titioning Of weak nations, mass de-
portation of populations and the sup
preston Of freedom are Nazi methods
which breed only hate and strife. Such
methods must not be practiced by
the United Nations.
To create jobs for all in America
after the war ends requires new up
surge of national unity among the
functional groups which make up our
economic life. Labor, industry and
agriculture must work together with
the government to achieve this para
mount postwar goal. Narrow self
interest must be subordinated to the
general welfare if we are to make
any substantial progress. In my opin-
ion, confidence in the future can best
be strengthened by developing unity
of action behind the united purpose
to provide jobs for all.
Great opportunities lie ahead of us
after the war ends. In the hope and
anticipation of victory in the coming
year, extend to the members Of our
armed forces and to the vast army of
production soldiers best wishes for
happy New Year.
