trade we recognize tariffs. And, if
we go to the bottom of things, we
find also that lack Of information is
a trade barrier and a very real one.
Lack Of information can be caused
by denial of access to news, which is
information.
There are many other barriers, but
those are two important ones.
It can happen that the United
States may say that our tariffs are
our own business. It can happen also
that Russia may say that news within

UniOn-Made Fire Bombs
Razing japanese Cities,
War Department Says

Washington, D. C.-Around 100000
workers are engaged in making the
new Coop" and other fire-bearing
bombs which are credited with drop
ping more devastation on Japan than
even the bombed-out German cities
felt, according to Army Chemical War
fare Service. The roll Of workers in
cludes members of numerous unions
at Army Ordnance plants, as well as
AFL members at Bade- -Cummins Com
pany, Louisville, and the Lonergan
Company, Albion, Mich.
Incendiary bombs, the Army ex-
plains, are especially devastating on
Jap targets after explosive bombs
have ripped open factory or other
building and left it vulnerable to fire.
The incendiaries, dropped by a second
wave of bombers or on days after
high explosives have hit, finish the
destruction of bomb-hit targets by
starting fires virtually impossible to
extinguish.
Four principal types of thickened-
gasoline incendiaries are disclosed to
be in use against the japanese, rang
ing from small six-pound bombs drop
ped in clusters of thirty eight each
to the 500-pound block-burner which,
needing only a lightweight shell cas-
ing to enclose it's fiery ingredients,
contains three times as much destruc-
tive force as a 500-pound high explo-
sive bomb.
The 10-pound Scoop Bomb" which
spouts fire-making jelly is the re-
cently-revealed secret weapon of Army
Chemical Warfare Service. The vio-
lently inflammable chemicals in this
bomb come over the target like lava
erupting from volcano, and are as
difficult as volcanic lava to extinguish.
One of the ingredients, mixture of
magnesium and asphalt called "goop,"
gives the bomb it's name.
Coop was discovered when magne-
SUM product stored in a Kaiser plant
in California, employing AFL mem
bers, inexplicably burst into flames.
Coop" is manufactured somewhat as
cake is baked. Workers dump mix
ture into kettle, cream it, add a
small amount of several chemicals,
and paddle to preliminary brew. This
is put into dough mixer, gasoline is
added and the mixture is beaten to
pasty batter. This batter is then plac-
ed in a churn, diluted with jellied
| gasoline, and mixed to an even mass.
The resultant lava is strong, rub
berry material which sticks in glue
like gobs to anything it reaches, and
because of it's magnesium content pro-
duces the hottest flames ever known.
This deadly lava will fly for 25 yards,
land under the caves and against walls
of buildings, cling to the surface and
burn.
T These fire bombs made by Ameri-
can workers are carrying blazing de-
feat directly to the heart of Japan.

Russia is Russia's own business.
We are pretty stern about our tar

1t can happen that Britain and
France may be pretty crusty about

Well, if things go as planned, when
any of these things happen, there will

Luzon Trop Faces Jops
(Continued from Page D

The lacerated Japanese units which fled to southern Luzon when the Sixth and Eighth Armies clear ed most of the central section of the Island, including Manila, were trapped in steel wise between the converging American forces.
 The landing eliminated any pos- sibility of serious Japanese de- fensive stand against an overland attack at the narrow eight-mile Isthmus connecting the main por- tion of Luzon with the elongated southeastern tail.
 The First Cavalry Division ele- ments, clearing the sector imme- diately south of Laguna Bay, were meeting only scattered resistance. They were moving so rapidly in some sectors that surrender leaflets dropped by planes and meant for the Japanese often fell behind the American lines.
 In northern Luzon, the Japanese still were fighting fiercely and att tempted two strong attacks near Balete Pass. Both were re- pulsed with heavy losses to the Japanese.
 MacArthur's communique also disclosed continued gains by Amer ican troops on Negros and Cebu and new aerial attacks on Formosa and enemy shipping through the China seas.
 Robbers and fighters in wide spread attacks from the China Coast to French Indo- China sank or damaged B Japanese vessels and destroyed four grounded enemy planes.

 TasS said that Russia would pro- pose that the two autonomous re- publics take part in the organiza- tion as prime member founders"- charter members.
 This proposal" Tass said, "was met with positive attitude on the part of the representative of the governments of the U. s. A. and Great Britain.
 Later, the representative of the United States proposed that the Soviet Union should support the proposal to allow the U. s. A. addi- tional votes at the conference"
 Tass said the Soviet representa- tives consented to the U. s. pro- posal declaring 1t would be possi- bic to increase the number of votes of the U. s. A. at the session of the CClIeISuce 70 LlTee.
 Meanwhile, it was recalled that some of the key men who accom- panied StettiniuS to Yalta, plus some of the highest officials of the State Department, apparently knew nothing about the secret agreement as much as 19 days after the big three meeting ended on Feb. 12. AS lete as March 3, Alger Hiss, deputy director of the State Department 's office of special political affairs and the world organization expert who accompanied President Roosevelt tc the Crimea. said in a radio ad- dress:
 There will be the general assem- ply, with an equal voice and vote for all nations, whose main task will be to promote international co- operation in all fieldA"
 Undersecretary of State Joseph c. Grew and Assistant Secretary o1 State Archibald MacLeish were on that same program and presumably were as ignorant as Hiss of what thu President had agreed to at Yalta.

 Zero Hour Nears
 To the north, Moscow reported, evidence increased that the zero hour for the Red Army's frontal smash from the Oder river against Berlin was approaching.
 The Russians plunged into the city limits of BratiSlava under a canopy of shells laid down by mass ed Soviet artillery. Moscow said the fall of Bratislava would pull the plug from Vienna's frontal defenses for Soviet advances along both sides of the Danube.
 Vajnary, four miles north east of Bratislava and 29 miles east of Vienna, also fell as the Second Army group drove up to the foot hills of the small Carpathian Moun- tains on a 25-mile front. Advances of up to IA miles were reported.
 The Russian Third Ukrainian Army group was meeting increas- ing resistance in its drive on Vienna from the southeast, but Berlin ad- mitted the city had been deeply fianked from the south.
 German broadcasts said the So- viets were battling in the Semmer- ing Pass in the Pischbacher Alps 42 miles southwest of Vienna and 132 miles east of Adolf Hitler's hideaway at Berchtesgaden.
 Vienna was preparing for a last ditch stand. Gauleiter Baldur Won Schirach, former Reich youth leader said in a radio broadcast that Vien- na would not be declared an open city. but would be defended until the last"

 Other British tanks and para troopers fought their way through the dense Teutoberg Forest against fanatical resistance from German cadets mustered out of 8 nearby Nazi officers school.
 The British shot and bayoneted their way across a dominent ridge overlooking Osnabrueck from the southwest and at last reports were storming the city streets.
 Paratroop units swung around the city and pushed ahead an un- disclosed distance toward Hanno- yer, 70 miles east, and Bremen, GA miles northeast.
 British troops also were farl- ming out beyond Biefeld, 25 miles to the southeast in support Of the American columns there, and were fighting side by side with YanK troops in the streets of Muenster. 25 miles southwest.
 Two-thirds of Muenster was In Allied hands early today after a savage, block-by -block fight and an unconfirmed Brussels radio re- port said all of the city had been cleared. Field dispatches said Muenster, capital of Westphalia and & focal point in the German communications network, was 8 Shambles.
 A trapped band of Nazi die-hards was putting up an equally ferocious fight for Hamm, 20 miles southeast | of Muenster. American Ninth Army troops surrounded the city and were roofing out the cornered enemy with rifle and artillery fire.
 A few miles north of Hamm, the | Germans surrendered the hospital ctiy of Ahhen without a fight. The trapped Germans inside the Ruhr made three abortive attempts to run armored troop trains through | the American gantlet along the railway line running northeast to Bielefeld, but all three were smashed and the enemy trains destroyed. There were no immediate details on tn advance of the American Ninth Army toward Hammeln. This force was cutting across the Ger man communications lines feeding the enemy forces along the north sea coast.
 The American First Army farther south, however, fought off almost continuous infantry and tank at tacks by segments of the trapped German Ruhr armies in the area south and southwest of Paderborn. The Yanks cleared Altenruhen and Scharfenberg, 25 and 9 miles south west of Paderborn, and the ring was reported still firm at all points.
 A relative small force of NaZi elite guard infantrymen and tanks tried to break through the American ring around Bonenburg, IT miles southeast of Jaderborn, but tho thrust was beaten off.
 On the Third Army front, Pat tons Sixth armored and 8Oth Tn. fantry Divisions ran into hornets nest of NaI elite guards in the streets of Kassel. Doughboys and tank formations were well inside the city this morning, while massed American guns to the west poured a drumfire barrage over their heada into the German defenses.
 German and American accounts said Kassel, once the biggest railway equipment manufacturing center in the Reich, had been be aten flat by the American bombardment.
 United Press War Correspondent Robert Richards said German civil. fans inside Kassel tried unsuccess- fully to surrender the city to the Americans but were blocked by the NaN garrison.

The identity of three men, iden- tified by the German radio as a chauffeur and two passengers, who were slain in big blue limousine on the Avus speedway between Ber- lin and Potsdam yesterday remained mystery.
 An official Germany reward of 100000 marks ($40,000) for inform ation leading to the discovery of or arrest of the assassins raised specu- lation that the victims may have been prominent Nazis.

 The Legislature was expected to- day to receive survey of the Con- necticut state employees retirement commission on the condition of the pension fund. The survey suggests that the rate of contribution by employees be stepped up from 2A to 4 per cent as of September 1 and that an appropriation of $800,000 be made to cover a present deficit.
 The survey report claimed that remedial action was necessary now inasmuch as the fund will virtually exhaust itself within 18 years un- less contributions are increased.

 Thomas said the troops sliced through meager Japanese resist" ansce like a hot knife through butter in their dash to the east coast. Ever-increasing numbers were pouring out of the limestone hills onto the eastern beaches, he said.
 It was indicated the troops had seized control of the northern face of the Awasi hill mass dominating the Bisha Gawa valley and terri tory to the north. The victory firmly anchored the American beachhead 362 miles southwest of Japan proper.
 Maj. Gen. Roy s. Geiger's Third Marine Amphibious Corps extend. ed the west coast beachhead another 5000 yards to the north by push ing across the base of Tampa Cape to the approaches to 770-foot Ton. tan Zank Peak.
 Observation planes now were operating from Yontan and Kadena airf1elds, captured in the first hours of the invasion, and engineers were rushing repairs to permit their use by fighters and bombers.

 Warships in the Armada joined carrier planes in supporting the ground forces, hurling everything from 16-inch shells to flaming rockets into already-burning Naha and other enemy strong points.
 Japanese planes made a feeble attack on the invasion Armada Sunday night, and five were shot down. A Japanese communique however, claimed that IS more Am erican warships had been sunk and r damaged.
 GA CBS correspondent broadcast ing from the fleet said Tokyo claims that 150 ships had been sunk since the start of the invasion operations were just about 99 44/100 per cent wrong.O
 The communique said Japanese planes continue to apply fierce attacks on enemy warshipS" around Okinawa while garrison forces continue to carry out fierce inter- captive battles with the invading ground troops.
 Exaggeration
 Though the communique obvious ly was exaggerated, there was nc inclination at Admiral Chester w Nimitz's Pacific fleet headquarters here to write of Okinawa as al- ready won. On the contrary, hard fighting was anticipated in the coming weeks as the invaders come to grips with the enemy garrison totalling 60000 to 80,000 troops.
 The Japanese commander was ex- pected here to fight desperately tc gain time while Japan itself rushes the construction of anti-invasior defenses. Next on the American invasion scheduled may be Japan itself.
