about eight full frames of honey and

'pAppY' BOYINGT0N pRAI5ES JApANESE

HOLLYWOOD, Feb 27.--lR-In the opinion of Gregory w CPap- py) Boyington, the Marine Corps top ace of the Pacific war and a longtime Japanese prisoner, we should do all we can to give tke Japanese people every break.
 Boyington, in a talk last night to the Marine Newsmen's Club told his listeners that while pris- on food was scanty, Japanese sol- diers were little if any better off and asserted Japan will prove one of our most valuable assets"
 The Japanese are industrious people. They think in the Ameri- can way. Japan, if allowed tp go our way, will prove very valuable in the next war when it comes And it is not far off.

BIG MONEY FOR REDS
 IN JAPAN
S6OO,O ,OOO BankroII for Propaganda Work in
 Election Campaign

Tokyo, Feb. 27-lR-B Between 50,OO0 and 60,00o organized Com munists with 10,000000 yen - $600 000-bankroll will spread the Red doctrine throughout Japan prior to the forthcoming elections, party leader declared today
 San2o Nozaka, Japan's No. Communist, told the Associated Press that his party would nomi- nate at least 200 candidates, for whom party members and fellow travellers will be ordered to cam paign.
 Last year, the Communists had l40 candidates for the diet and won six seats. This year, Nozaka said, the Communists hope to obtain between 25 and 50 seats and to install party members in elective posts great and small. Date of the election has not been set.
 Nozaka said the Communists would depend upon their cells throughout Japan, on propaganda and on disciples dispatched from Tokyo to spread the election doc Urine of democracy"
 The Communists, he said, would attempt to line up with Labor in industrial areas, preaching high sr rice prices and land reform to farmers
 Nozaka said the Communists have won control of the farmers union, and by playing on farm CTS discontent. have boosted the membership tenfold, to a present
 strength of more than 100000. There are about 40,000000 farmers in Japan.
 Communist party membership, Nozaka added, has increased re- maikably. One year ago there were 10000 party members, and there now are 50o0O to 60.000. he said.
 General McArthur's recent ban ming of a general strike, brought many new recruits into the party. the Communist leader said.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27-tR- A House Merchant Marine sub committee today subpoenaed Sec retary of State Marshall to pro- duce for it tomorrow all records and communications dealing with the wartime transfer of United States ships to Russia.
 The subpoena, signed by Rep WeicEel tR-Ohio), subcommittee chairman, was turned over to the House Sergeant tat Arms, William F Russell.

 Weichel instructed Russell to wait at the White House until Marshall left.
 The subpoena directed the Sec- retary to appear before the con- mittee at 9:30 a. m. (EST) tomor- row with "all books, papers, com- munications and other memoranda covering the matter of approxi- mately 100 merchant ships owned by the United States now in the possession of the Russian govern ment, the communications to Rus sia and the replies of Russia"

Palestine Problem for
 Ambassador
Must Smooth Out Charge that Truman Played
 Politics on Question

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-LP-- The problem of smoothing Anglo American relations troubled by diff ferences over Palestine emerged to- day as the first hurdle for plain talking Lewis A. Douglas when he takes over the Embasy in London.
 The Atlantic controversy came to a head in a White House statement describing as ''unfortun- ate and misleading" any British implication that President Truman was playing politics last Oct. 4, when he urged the immediate ad- mission oi 100000 Jews to the Holy Land
 The statement, handed out last night only few hours after the President chose the one-time New Deal budget director as his new Ambassador, was issued as a reply to Foreign Secretary Bevins tart assertion to Parliament Tuesday. Bevin declared MT Truman's Oc- tober remarks, during the Congress sional election campaign, spoiled negotiations which might have led to a settlement of the Arab-Jewish conflict
 T really must point out" the British Cabinet officer told Com mons, that in international af- fairs I cannot settle things if my problem is made the subject of local elections"
 The White House statement made public by press Secretary Charles G. Ross retorted:
 "The impression that has arisen from yesterdays debate in the Bri- tish Parliament that Americas in terest in Palestine and the settle ment of Jews there is mctivated by partisan and local politics is most unfortunate and misleading"
 It went on to declare that MT. Truman's October stand simply re- iterated the position he had com municated to Prime Minister At tlee as long ago as August, 1945, and made public in November, 1945.
 Americas interest in Palestine, ' the statement continued, lis of long and continuing standing It is deep and abiding interest shared by our people without regard to their political affiliation.7
