Sailors Try To 'Ko' Ship In Pacific

Pearl Harbor, May 9-(UP)-Five U. s. Navy enlisted men attempted to knock out" Japanese cruiser enroute from Japan to Bihini Atoll because they wanted to go home, the Navy disclosed today.
 Capt. Sanford Wood, 14th Naval District legal officer, said the al- legged sabotage occurred April 5-7 abroad the cruiser Sakawa, one of the target ships for the forthcom- ing atom bomb tests.
 The men were identified as Fire man 2/c Larry w. La Joie, Chicago; Fireman 1/c Stanley Berrent, Balti- more; Fireman 2/c Robert J. Eby, Landsdown, Pa; Seaman Lloyd E. Caulkner, Baltimore, and Seaman 2/c William Mckinley Lambright, Jr., Palestine, O.
 Wood said general courts martial charges were being prepared against the men and that they may face the death penalty if it is decided the Sakawa is a United States ves- sel.
 Four days were required for re- pairs after the alleged sabotage attempt, which occurred of Eniwe- tck, Wood said.
 The men allegedly severed a high pressure steam line, put sand in the water pumps, smashed engine room gauges and boiler valves, and removed the pressure line on the speed value.
 Wood said the men hoped to knock out the Sakawa in order to expedite their return to the mainland since all were scheduled for early discharge. Cmdr. Jesse E. Miller, Ottumwa, Ia., the ships executive officer, said the men concealed their work, endangering the lives of those in the boiler room.
 If anybody has been in front of the steam burst, 1t would have cut him in two," Miller said.
 Chief Engineer It. David l.. Mer- ritt, Hartford, Conn.,, said the al- legged offenses climaxed a trouble some voyage from Japan caused by foul living conditions" He said the ship was full of rats" and that the "chow was none too good." Merritt said morale Chit rock

CPAtoCive Mems Suits MoreCIoth

Washington, May S-UP)-The o. Civilian Production Administration Has expected today to offer plan to make more cloth available for mems suits and less for women's nuits.
 The plan was designed to enable the mems suit industry to produce Nt near capacity.
 Philip Mcguire, deputy CPA ad- aninistrator, told reporters that a certification plan would be present. cd to an industry group today.
 Hope For 100000 Suits
 This plan provides that mems suit manufacturers will receive pref erence ratings on their order for wool and worsted fabrics from mills. They would have to certify that all the fabric they purchase under pref erence ratings will be used to make mems suits.
 Macguire said that this plan would not prohibit the manufacture of women's suits. He said that there is enough fabric on hand to take care of the demands of mems suit manufacturers, and still leave substantial amounts for women's suits.
 CPA hopes the plan will result in the production of 100000 more mems suits annually than would be made at the present rate.
 Manufacturers of women's suits would not be entitled to any pref erence rating but would use the cloth remaining after the mems or ders were filled.
 Program Advanced
 The industry committee also plans to consider a three-point program designed to stimulate production of men's clothing in other ways. The plan provides that:
 1. CPT grant priority ratings to manufacturers allowing them to obtain additional pocketing materials. The industry says dis tribution of thousands of mems suits Is being held up que 10 lack of pockets.
 2. CPA revoke an order which channels wool fabrics into suits retailing at less than $35.
 3. OPA revoke its maximum price regulation on wool fabrics. The price order, the industry con- tends, diverts wool into light weight fabrics unsuitable for mems clothing.
 CHA Chief John D. Small stated in a radio address last night that suit production would increase from 10 to 30 per cent if manufacturers could obtain adequate supplies o1 pocketing material and rayon fabric for Things.
 Meantime, the OPA announced that prices of cotton and wool-knit underwear, cotton and wool hosiery will be increased. OPA estimated that prices on mems cotton socks will rise two cents a pair, athletic shorts will go up about eight cents and union suits about 25 cents.
