NINTH ARMY. Germany, May 4.
fUP)-Edward w. Beattie, Jr., Unit
ed Press war correspondent who was
captured by the Germans last Sep
tember, arrived here Friday from
the Luckenwald concentration camp
south of Berlin.
Robert Vermillion, UP war cor
respondent attached to the Ameri-

clue TO Beattie's whereabouts. An
American officer arrived at Ninth
Army headquarters and said he had
been IN Luckenwald camp and that
Beattie was there.
Earl J. Johnson, UP vice president
and general news manager, sent
this message to Vermillion:
Bob please utmost contact out
bring Beattie to where he can file. ~
Despite the fact that there were
reports that the Germans were
counterattacking the Russians in
the vicinity Of Luckenwald and that
the camp was said to be under ar
tillery fire, Vermillion got into a
jeep and started a hazardous trip
through what was a no mans land

Rotarians Hear
OF ST. Meet

Discussion of the objectives and
the set-up of the peace meeting now
in progress at San Francisco was
presented to El Centre Rotarians at
Thursdays meeting by a trio Of
speakers led by Captain Randall
Henderson who was program chair
man for the DAY. Joining in the
round-table were Robert Schwob,
Valley rancher and dairyman aid
j. H. Edgar, president of the Edgar
Brothers Hardware company.
In the opinion of Schwob, the
smaller nations are not adequately
or justly represented at he confer
ence. He held high hopes, however,
for the ultimate success of the
UNCIO in drafting a peace charter
as did the other speakers. Hender-
son explained the working set-up of
the meeting, plenary sessions and
the grouping of various phases of
the work. Edgar, former Rotarian,
bespoke success for the conference
and traced the workings of the
meetings conclusions in setting UP
a world organization to maintain
peace.

Fresh Marines
Break laps
Okinawa Front

GUAM, May 4. (UP)-Fresh ele-
ments of the first marine division
stormed through strong japanese
defenses on the west coast of Oki-
nawa Friday to within a mile from
Naha, capital of the island.
A sizeable force Of B-29 Super
fortresseS raided southern Kyushu
and Shikoku, japanese home islands,
again today in an attempt to neu-
! tralize bases for japanese suicide
planes which sank two more Amer
lean light fleet units in the Okinawa
area last night. The attack on Kyu-
shu was the second in "a hours and
the 18th in 18 days.
Four units of the first marine div
ision, thrown into the southern
Okinawa battle only several days
ago, led a new 10th army offensive
against an estimated $1,000 Japa-
nese entrenched in strong defenses
before Naha.
A front dispatch said the marines
pushing down the rugged west coast
sector. were nearing the Asa river
last natural barrier before Naha
and only a little more than a half
mile from the city.
The breakthrough by the marines
was the first major gain of the
American forces since 1t. Gen. ST.
mon Bolivar Buckner, Jr. brought
the marine division and a fourth
army division into the battle.

RANGE WARNING
Cattlemen are warned to plan a

cause of the anticipated shortage
in volume of dry feed left for sum-
mer. and fall feeding.
Ward Shepard, extension special
ist in animal husbandry of the
Agricultural Extension Service,
University of California. says
ranges in many sections of Califor-
mia are now beyond any relief from
late rains. Lack of rain in April,
together with heavy north winds,
dried out the ranges prematurely
in many cases.
Cattle and lambs going to market
should be moved before they start
to shrink, Shepard said Where
cattle are to be carried ever through
summer and fall on short feed, a
supplemental feeding program
should be planned carly to guard
against low plane of nutrition.
Prospects of a good barley crop
have been reduced by the same con-
ditions affecting the ranges. Much
Of the late sown grain will not
make a crop. Barley is the chief
grain used for supplemental feed
ing in California.

WITH THE U. S. SEVENTH
ARMY IN GERMANY, May 4.UP)
In the greatest big-shot of the
western war, two field marshals, Is
generals, prince and a princess
poured into Seventh Army prisoner
cages
The Seventh Army already had
taken the former commander of the
German armies in the west, Field
Marshal Karl Won Rundstedt, who
told his captors, 1T is senseless for
the German people to resist any
further
The latest captives included Field
Marshal Hugo Won Sperrle, as chief
of the Luftwaffe in the west was re-
sponsibl for the aerial massacre of
Rotterdam in 1910 and personally di-
rected the blitz against London. Won
WEIGHS was former German COM
mander-in-chief in the Balkans.
ROYAL PAIR TAKEN
The Seventh also took Prince Al
bert and Princess Marie, ranking
royalty of the house of Bavaria.
Won Rundstedt, trembling, sick
old man, was interviewed by Maj.
Gen. John E. Dahiquist, commander
of the 36th Division which captured
him.
This is sad fate of the man who
spent 43 years moulding the best
army in the world" said Won Rund-
tedt, who fought the Allies from the

Friday.
Fierce fighting was reported in
the vicinity of Wawutang where the
Japanese thrust had reached within
10 miles of the air base, $50 miles
southwest of Shungking.
North of Chenepu other Chinese
forces reached areas southwest of

For Return Of
Captured Trieste

ROME, May 4. UP)-Twenty
thousand Italians paraded through
the Piazza Venezia Friday demand
ing the return of Trieste to Italy
after Yugoslav Marshal Tito chal-
lenged Allied occupation of the port.
Fighting broke out between stu
dents and communists in front OF
the tomb of the unknown soldier.
The Communists, who are consider
ed here to favor Yugoslav control
by Trieste, were coming down the
steps of the tomb when they were
set upon by students.
Numerous minor injuries were
suffered in the fight, waged with
sticks and stones, virtually a repeti..

put it after spending several days
inspecting gypsum areas in the
neighborhood of Westmorland.
Until my report is given full
consideration Crabbe said, I'VE are
not in position to make any an
nouncement as to our development
plans, but certainly the material is
there and with the increasing de-
mands for the product, concerns like
ours must bon the alert for ex-
pansion.'

CLICKED ON BIG STREET
Eve Arden, San Francisco girl
who clicked on Broadway in big
musicals and then came to Holly
wood, will be seen next with Danny
Kaye in Samuel Goldwyn's "The Kid
From Brooklyn"
'I'll probably be lowering over
him." Eve said, "but at least I'm
prettier than he is"
Despite all the lowering, Eve has
had some nice dramatic roles, too,
in "Comrade X' and "Stage Door" ="
She even got to die dramatically in
one picture with George Montgom-
cry.
"It wasn't SO dramatic, thought
she confessed. Il was supposed to
die on burlap sack in Georges
arms. They took the scene late one
night. The director was munching a
hamburger The crew wanted to go
home. George was giggling in my
ear. There were no violins. I just
died-and everyone went home"
There was also glamour girl
role in a Columbia r1cvie, "She
Couldn't Say No."
THE TEAR TYPE
OF course, Eve said, there ale diff
ferent kinds of hover girls, which
sometimes breaks the monotony.
There is the hover girl with tears
in her eyes, like the one Eve played
with Barbara Stanwyck in My Rep
utation." There's the mercenary
hover girl-who would like to get
the guy herself. You also have to
hover with indignation, with SYM
pathy and with broken heart.
But the dialog, she said, is usually
the same old stuff:
Don't worry, honey. I'll get you
cut of this"
Il just don't want to see YOU
throw your life away
Honey, what you need is nice
vacation"
"One Of these days." Eve Arden
said, I'm going to hover over a
producer in which someone hovers

ported Mexican spring-type clothes
pins-flooding the area and out of

mindful of price ceilings, filed treble
damage suits in an effort to stem
the rising tide OF overcharges.
The actions call for a change of
one cent pin profit to a loss of
around six cents each, and may, Of
ficials concede, cause consumer
damage actions to become thicker
than lunch boxes in a country school

In charging the firms with selling
the pins above the import price reg
ulations, the OPA said every retail

liable to $50 treble damage suit
