SIX ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW. ROSEBURS, ORE6QN, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1942. Food-for-Freedom Campaign of '43 To Start Jan. 4 A statewide program to swing the full wolght of Oregon s agrl cultural resources bphiml the na tion's 1943 war food production effort will be launched durini; the week of January 4, K. H. Tny lor of Adams, chairman of the state USDA war board, an nounced. The schedule of events agreed upon by the cooperating agencies In Oregon will carry through January 12, which has been pro claimed "farm mobilization day' by President Roosevelt. Establishment of county pro- ductlon goals will be the first step in Oregon. Teams composed of representatives of the state war board, the extension service and the state AAA office will meet with war boards and farm leaders in each county to deter mine the best contributions that each county s farm plan can make to the Food-for-Kn'edorn program. :The goals will represent each county s 194.1 share of the na tion's food responsibility to the armed forces, the home front and America's fighting allies, Taylor said. Farm resources and short ages will be taken into account In setting the goals, but so will programs to provide labor, ma terials and machinery 'needed for essential production. Community meetings to ac quaint farmers with the nation's need for food will follow during the week of January 14, prepara tory to an every farmer canvass conducted by AAA committee men. Each farmer will be asked to fill out a farm plan and work sheet. Together, these forms will furnish an Inventory of each farm's production capacity, show what Is needed to get the produc tion, and provide a basis for ac tion to get whatever is lacking. The Food-for-Freedom drive will he directed by USDA war boards, concentrating the re sources of every agency of ihi department of agriculture. This will permit all possible assistance to farmers In overcoming obsta cles that stand In the way of pro duction, snld Taylor. Wallace's Peace Plans Seen as "Feeler" for Roosevelt's Message (Continued from page 1.) foresee that South America, Asia and Africa will in the future ex perience a development of In dustry and agriculture compare- IS ble to what has been experienced In the past In Europe and North America? Is is soggy sentimental ity to hold out hope to those mil lions in Europe and Asia fighting for the cause of human freedom, our freedom? Is It the dispensing of milk and honey to picture to their minds the posible blessings of a higher standard of living when the war is over and their own productivity has Increased? The world today, as measured by travel time, Wallace said, Is actually smaller than was the United States of 17H7, and it Is In that kind of world thai the united nations soon must decide upon the Rulding principles of the world wide new democracy they hope to build. Liberty Without Anarchy Now the united nations, he said, "are groping for a formula which will give the greatest possible liberty without producing an archy und at the same time will not give so many rights to each member nation as to Jeopardize the security of all." "As territory previously over run by the Germans and the Japs is reoccupied by the forces of the united nations, measures of re lief and rehabilitation will have to be undertaken," Wallace said. Later, out of the experience of these temporary measures ol re lief, there will emerge the pos sibilities and the practicalities of more permanent reconstruction. The guiding principle, Wallace suggested, should be "the maxi mum of home rule that can be maintained along with the mini mum of centralized authority that must come Into existence to give the necessary protection." Reds Closing Trap in Stalingrad Region (Continued Irom page 1.) o 42 miles north of Elista, the Kal myck capital. A third force has driven up in side the Don elbow northwest of Kotelnikovskl, where the Rus sians were reported yesterday within 45 miles of a juncture with troops from the north. This would close a second trap around the nazis to the east. 2. The fight around Millerovn, where the Russian drive across the middle Don has pushed on In to the eastern Ukraine and wedged south within 100 miles of Rostov at the mouth of the Don on the sea of Azov. Millerovo, 120 miles north of Rostov, was virtually surrounded, and the Russians announced that they had stormed settlement after settlement southeast ot the town, penetrating to the Western portion of the Ktalingrad-I.ikhaya i wav. That line crosses Hie Vmets liver and joins tllo Rostov- Moscow main line at Ukhiiya, 70 miles north ot Rostov. 3. On the Ukraine front, the Russians reported the capture 6f hertkov, 30 miles northwest of Millerovo and battlefront dis patches said other nearby towns had been won back under the red banner in a continuing advance. Dispatches from the middle Don front said (hut the Germans were rushing up reinforcements, but thut the red army was striking so swiftly these new nazl roops had no lime to get into position. Nazi Attacks Repulsed On the Kolelnikovski front, Red Star said German counter at- aeks from carefully prepared de fense positions were beaten duwn, and the Russian drive continued. It reported that the retreating Germans were abandoning un damaged guns and equipment. The Russians also hold Maior sky, nine and a half miles to the northwest, and Karalchev, a few miles east, alt but ringing the city in the drive that has carried them down the railroad from Slalingrad despite bitter axis counter attacks. The midday communique said that In the latest battles "our units fought their way forward and occupied a number of popula ted places. According to incom plete data, more than 2,000 enemy officers and men were killed." This brings to more than 21,1X10 Hie toll of axis soldiers reported slain In the region since Dec. 12. Twenty tanks and other arms were destroyed, the newest com munique said. The night's lighting also was reported to have brought new smashes down through the middle Don corridor leading toward Rostov, Increasing the Russians' chances of uniting that army with the forces fighting west on the Stnlingrad-Mkhaya railway and with the columns around Kotelnikovskl. College-Military Plan Embraces "Stay Put" Urge OREGON STATE COLLEGE "Stay in college until called to military service," the advice given men students by Man power Commissioner Paul V. Mc Nutt, is seconded here by admin istrative officials after studying recent announcements of the ed ucational plan worked out by the army and navy. The plan announced for con tracting with selected colleges to train enlisted men in uniform in specified technical fields has the full approval of officials here and is in line with previous proposals by many educational groups, ft Is assumed that this will apply, among others, to all those now enlisted In navy or army reserve programs and those in advanced RO IC courses. Several months, however, may be needed for this program to be put into operation, officials here believe. Pending that time, and even afterwards, there is every reason for men to continue ihcir college work and for high school graduates to start, according to Commissioner McNutt and lo educators here. With voluntary enlistments closed except for special cases, and with selective service boards given definite instructions as to who should be left in college rind who should not, there no longer is a question of patriotism in volved, it Is pointed out here. More stable conditions than have existed since last fall are now foreseen, as men will know that the government will call them either for active service or to assign them to college when wanted, pending which call they can continue as usual. Should the call come within a term, pro vision is made for the refund of unused fees and for granting full credit earned. Senior high school students eligible for graduation in mid year who desire lo start to col lego can, in most instances, be released to enter the winter -.erm starting here Tuesday, Decem ber 29.

Ine was sunk in the Mediterran ean. The Germans said their sub marines had sunk 15 cargo ships, a destroyer and a corvette In a two-day running attack on .in allied convoy bound from Eng land toward North Africa. Three additional ships of the convoy were reported to have been torpedoed. liritish suhamrines have siiiik at least two more axis supply ships in the Mediterranean and have probably destroyed two others, the admiralty announced today. Three of the enemy ships were hit in the gulf of Ilammamet, on the cast coast of Tunisia. French Score Successes The Morocco radio, meanwhile, announced that French forces were continuing their advance he low Pont Du Fahs on the south ern flank of the Tunisian front despite counterattacks by rein forced axis troops which they said had driven their lines back slightly at one point. Pont Du Falls is 30 miles south of Tunis. "Numerous prisoners have been taken, two 4.7 Inch guns were captured, several tanks were de stroyed and one enemy plane was shot down by French fire," said the communique. "In the region northwest of Teroub a raid brought In some 20 prisoners, in cluding two officers. We suffer ed no losses." Fighting French forces driving ui from I ake Ch id in Equatorial ft -KIDDIES- Africa also are continuing to art vance south of Fezzan, some 550 miles below Tripoli In southwest ern Ilbya, the Brazzaville radio said lust night. French Somallland In east Africa has joined the fighting French, Gen. Charles De Gaulle's Heailquaiiers announced today. It said the flag of the Fighting French was raised last night in Djibouti. The Vichy radio an nounced last night that French and liritish troops had entered the colony. To the east in the hugh North African battlefront, meanwhile, the liritish eighth army was ad vancing well beyond Sirte In its chase of Marshal Rommel's Lib yan army. Touhy Gang Smashed by FBI in Chicago Trap (Continued from page 1.) to drive them out, -Money, Arsenal Found In the apartment where Touhy, Banghart and Darlak were nabb ed, agents found SI 3,533.27 In cash, but Hoover said it had not been determined immediately whence this money came. Five revolvers, five sawed off shot guns and one 30-30 rifle, all load ed and plentifully supplied with ammunition were confiscated. Touhy, 44, prohibition era liquor ruler of Chicago's north west side, and Banghart, 42, ma chine gunner for the old Touhy mob and described by Chicago detective as the toughest man who ever walked Into their bureau, were serving 99 years each for the 1933 kidnaping of John (Jake the Barber) Factor wnen iney escaped. a O Connor and Mclnerney were slain last night when they opened fire on FBI agents who surround ed their hideout in the Norwood apartments on Lcland avenue. The FBI men ordered them to surrender peaceably. They an swered by opening fire. G-men's bullet's brought them down. Surrounded by newspapermen, Hoover read off the criminal records and backgrounds of each of the men captured or killed. Probation and parole figured In the histories of most of them and Hoover declared "I emphasize mention of these paroles because I think it stinks." He said he believed in "parole recently administered" but con demned the practice of "turning rats like these loose on the streets to indulge in gunplay against in nocent citizens." The Touhy raid, Hoover said, brought to 24 the number of per sons killed by the FBI in the last ten years while capturing 55,000 criminals. This has been accom plished, he said, with the loss of only 13 agents In gun battles. Allies Lunge Deeper Into Japanese Lines (Continued from page 1.) ed the harbor area at Meruke, in Dutch New Guinea, causing slight damage, the communique added. BRITISH GO FARTHER INTO BURMA, BLAST AIRDROME NEW DELHI, Dec. 29 (API Advance elements of the British forces pushing into western Burma have reached the vicinity of Rathedaung, approximately 25 miles northwest of AkyaD, a British communique disclosed to day.

I nw did not Dlan to release Its enlisted men over 38 as the army Intends to do where possible In the cases of men who were draft ed. He explained that such a policy would not apply to the navy because the navy has not I k hniotnfnre taken men through x y selective service and therefore u.-niilH not he affected bv the re cently announced selective service policy against drafting men over that age. U. S. WARSHIP REPAIRED AFTER STRIKING REEF WASHINGTON, Dec. 29 (AP) Secretary of the Navy Knox said today very early in the war an American battleship had struck an uncharted reef but had long since been repaired. He gave no detail of the occur- renco nor did he say where it oc surred. The reports about which the secretary was told were that the incident had occurred in the south Pacific.
