Outlets to Sea Sought by Russia For IS Months

Washington, June 2O-CUP)-The Soviet Union is combining its politi- cal pressure for warm water outlets to the sea with an intensive cam paign to build up its Navy and Merchant Marine and become major world maritime power, it was learned in high official quarters to- day.
 Secretary of State James F. Byrnes has been aware of Russia's new interest in the sea since Yalta and has been watching that inter est grow. For 18 months he has been confronted at each conference with Russia interest and demands for ships.
 Sources who have been at all the Big 3" and Big 4" conferences since Yalta say that the Russians have displayed an almost fanatical interest in the future of their coun- try as a maritime power.
 Interested in Any Vessel
 These officials said the Russians were interested in virtually any kind of a vessel that will float. They want warships and have ob- tained shares of the German and Italian fleet. They want merchant vessels and even have made infor- nal overtures for part of Japan's fishing fleet which is composed of small boats.
 Their latest interest is in acquir- ing 96 American merchant vessels Lend-L,eaSed to the Soviet Union during the war. Preliminary over lures for Russia to buy them or get them under the Lend-Lease settle ment have been made.
 The fervor of Russia'S interest in its future maritime strength was Illustrated by recent Moscow radio home service broadcast which said {:
 "As a result of the victorious cul- imitation of the great patriotic war, the extent of our sea boundaries has become still greater. Gt then named the new sea boundaries from the Baltic to the Pacific!

Retain oPA' Plea Made By Snow

Lieut.. Gov. Wilbert Snow CD urged that Congress "enact a fair and moderate, but effective price controll bill which will put an end to the uncertainty which is confusing us"
 In a statewide broadcast he paid note to the presence of imitation and warner that unless balanced legislation retaining the principles of OPA is presented prices will be- come excessive.
 Asking that Eve retain our pateince", It. Gov. Snow advocated a program of the middle-way ad- vocating the controlled upswing of prices by means of balanced OPA legislation.
 'The OPA program has helped us to avoid the -rocketeing dis aster that befell us after the last war;" he said. If the OPA has not held the line as well as some of us consumers hoped it would, it has partially held the line. Let us retain our patience"

 New Military Code System

Moscow, June 20-CUP)-The Red Army newspaper, Red Star, ann ounced today that Generalissimo Stalin has signed a new disciplin- ary code for the army which opens new possibilities for further im- provement in the discipline of the troops and which will undoubtedly contribute to the still great mili- tary might of the Soviet State"

 Commanders orders are the law and must be carried out without discussion" one rule provides.
 Tt is the duty of all men to re- port thefts, misuse of army fund and supplies and officers have the right to report directly to General iSSimo Stalin" another rule provided.

 Tn view of the fact that Russia and France do not reciprocate with us on like reports, they are appar- ently taking advantage of this country" Wherry asserted.
 He expressed fears that foreign governments, by piecing together information supplied by the Com merce Department, would solve some of this nations top war secrets.
 Wallace on the other hand, main- tained that T would not think that the Army and Navy would expose us to anything of that sort by classification"

Waste Material Used to Remove Carbon in Cars

Washington, June 20 - UP)- Ground-up corn cobs and rice hulls were revealed today as just the thing to take the carbon out of your automobile engine.
 Department of Agriculture Scien- tists developed a method using these materials to blast away the carbon 10 times as fast as present garage techniques and without dis turbing the precise measurement of engine parts.
 The process is another wartime development, perfected by Dr. E. c. Lathrop at the departments IS Peoria, Ill. research laboratory. He put on demonstration of the pro- cedure at the U. s. Bureau of Standards for a group of automo- bile repairmen.
 At present, garagemen use the tedious method of eating away car bon with chemicals or hand-chip- ping. Sand-blaSting is used for the more hardy parts of the engine.
 But Lathrop showed that the "soft" blast of the waste materials cleans more effectively, is faster and does not wear down the metal of piston rings and other parts ot ''close tolerance"

INTERSTATE
LEAGUE STANDINGS
Last Nights Games Not Included

Now that I've seen all eight Inter
state teams in action in league COM
petition, I'll still string along with
Bunny" GriAiths and his hustling,
scrappy "Owls," in a race that looks
wide open.
With all eight teams having
played forty, or more games, the
standings through Tuesday night
showed the fifth place Sunbury Yam
KEGS were only four games behind
the first place Wilmington Blue
Rocks. while the Owls were just
three-and-a-half games out of first
place.
While the Owls could do with a
little more consistent power at the
plate, they have a pitching staff
that, from top to bottom, can more
than hold its own, and, equally as
important, if not more so, manager
Grihfths has his team hustling all
the time-look at the number OF
times they have rallied in the late
innings to win games.
And here's something else. There
is real team spirit on the Owl squad
this year, something that has been
plainly lacking during the last
couple of seasons.
The Owls will make errors; the
Owls will lose games that they fig
ure to win; but, in my book, the
Owls are still the team to beat.
AS this is written "wednesday
morning), Mike Jacobs was getting
hourly weather reports from the
Weather Bureau and it was a toss
up whether or not the big fight
would go on last night, or be post
poned until tonight. But tonight or
last night, it still figures Joe Louis
