Philippines capital.
Front dispatches indicated that
only a thin Japanese covering
force lay between the advancing
doughboys and Manila, although
the difficult terrain was expef ted1
to prevent a quick march into the'
city.
(Tokyo, asserting that the
Americans still were being con
tained on the central Luzon plain
around Bamban, 18 miles above
San Fernando, said the greatest
battle of the Pacific war was ex
pected to develop in that area and
that a new American landing in
the "Manila area" was anticipated.

Far to the north other Amer
ican troops were running into
their bitterest opposition since the
Luzon invasion began 22 days
ago. Fanning out northeast and
east from their Lingayen gulf
beachheads, the Americans were
threatening the entire Baguio
area where the bulk of the ene
my's island garrison was believed
concentrated, and the Japanese re
acted savagely.
Reinforced enemv tank and In
fantry units counter attacked
three times against the American
spearheads over the week-end and
were routed with serious losses
after a touch-and-go battle.
Japs Hit Back
The Japanese tried their biggest
counter-blow shortly after mid
night Saturday night around San
Manuel, 24 miles south of Baguio
;nd 18 miles inland from Lin
,pyen gulf.
Elements of the Japanese Sec
ond armored division spearhead
ed the attack, striking into posi
tions held by the U. S. 25th divi
sion with a fury that overran the
Americans' forward lines before
it was halted. At down, the dough
boys rallied and counter-attacked,
finally wiping out the entire
enemy force and clearing the
whole San Manuel area.
Gen. Douglas MacArthur's com
munique said 789 enemy dead
were counted in the area, with
many more bodies still to be tal
lied, while at least 49 Japanese
tanks were known to have been
Knocked out.
Casualties Mount
The losses raised the Japanese
casualties since the start of the
J-uzon campaign to more than 25,
men and 103 tanks perhaps a
third of their armor on the island

arrison. American losses in the
W me three-week period totaled

San Quintin, 11 miles southeast
M San Manuel, also was taken by
the Americans in a supporting
thrust that carried almost 30
Mies inland to the foothills of the
Waballo mountains.
Meanwhile, the drive on Manila
was continuing against the feebl

Dairy Sanitation Conditions
Being Improved in District
Bitter Attacks on OPA Made at Bend Meeting;
Producers Confer With City Commissioners
Bitter attacks, on the OPA, predictions that Central Ore
gon milk men may abandon the business, and a revelation
that sanitary conditions in the community's dairies are being
improved, featured a meeting in the city hall last night when
producers were summoned in for a conference by the city
commission.
The meeting was a sequel to the recent sanitary inspection
made by the U. S. Public Health service and the Oregon state
health department. It developed that shortly after the inspec

Mackenzie King
Calls Election
Ottawa, Jan. 30 IP Canadian
Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie
King accepted the challenge of
minority party opposition today
and called the first general elec
tion since 1941 as a popular test
of his wartime leadership. .
. King's decision came last night
after he had determined that his
minister of national defense,
A. U. L. McNaughton, faced a
battle to win a seat in commons
which would assure his presence
in parliament in the event an
other session is called before a
general election.
McNaughton was brought into
King's cabinet last November af
ter King adopted the controversial
overseas draft policv. The defense
minister was-seeking the com
mons seat in a special election to
oe neid eb. 5 in tne rrey North
district of Ontario.
The progressive conservative
and Canadian commonwealth fed
eration parties offered opposition
to McNaughton, and King charged
they sought to "obstruct" his en
try into commons. He called for
the general election before April
14.
County Manager
Bill Introduced
Salem, Ore., Jan. 30 (IP) A bill
which would set up the mechanics
of a county manager system of
government in detail, and outlines
the form of elections in counties
which vote on It, was introduced
to the house today by Rep. Giles
French of Moro.
The bill implements the law
passed by the people at the No
vember election permitting that
type of county government.
Sen. Coe A. McKenna today ih
roduced a bill to the senate which
would provide for the improve
ment, development and regulation
of aeronautics in the state, and
making the law uniform.
An office of director of aero
nautics would be created by the
bill.
The measure, introduced at the
request of the interstate coopera
tion committee, is opposed to a
bill introduced yesterday by Sen.
J. N. Jones, Juntura, which would
abolish the present board of aero
nautics, and most of the provi
sions of the present aeronautics
code.

The German high command in
a survey of the western front, said
the allies were engaged in opera
tions "aiming at the establishment
of favorable initial positions for
major operations, which already
are foreshadowed on the northern
wing of the front."
Bridgehead Established
The northern wing of Patton's
Third army already had carved
out a bridgehead across the Our
river In Germany two miles wide
and three-quarters of a mile deep,
a front dispatch reported.
The douehbovs caDtured Wei-
chenhauson in their first specific

of Stupbach, a little more than a
mile to the north, also fell.
"The Third army's attack Into
Germany continued this morn
ing," a midday dispatch reported.
The German high command
said American forces "broke into
our positions after fierce fight
ing," northeast of St. Vith. It said
the Germans "are locked In heavy
fighting against American divi
sions which are attacking on a
wide front" on either side of St.
Vith.
Canadians Attack
To the northwest, a Berlin com
munique said, Canadian attacks
against a German bridgehead in
the Gertruidenberg area of the
lower Maas were broken up by ar
tillery fire. The Germans reported
heavy fighting in that sector, and
said several allied attacks were
repulsed along the Roer river. '
Simultaneously, French First

both sides of the Colmar pocket

north and south that Swiss border
reports said had recaptured Col

public hearings on disputed bills
before the legislature held the
spotlight today, with little con

A second hearing on the highly
controversial "freeway" or limited

late today. One hearing on It was
held last week, but some inter
ested persons who did not attend
it wanted another hearing. Most
evidence presented at the first

Soviets Strike
On Wide Front
East of Capital
Nazis Say Russians Go
Into Action on Line 42
Miles Long Near River
London, Jan. 30 (IP Marshal
Gregory K. Zhukov exploded a
redoubled offensive on a broad
front 90 to 100 miles from Berlin
today in a daring bid to over
whelm the defenses of the threat
ened German capital with one
great onslaught.
Moscow dispatches said Zhu-
kov's massed tanks and troops
had crashed through the Obra
river line, last natural barrier
before the Orcr, and were sweep
ing westward toward Frankfurt
and Stettin.
Nazi broadcasts reported that
powerful Russian forces had
struck out on a 42-mlle front be
tween Driesen and Neu Bentschen
In the border area of Germany
east of Berlin In a plunge pointed
at Kustrain, on the Oder 41 miles
northeast of the capital,
Blue Chips Used
Soviet and nazi reports made lt
evident that Zhukov was throwing
his blue chips into the game of
war for the highest stake Berlin.
Obviously he had the situation
well enough In hand after his
sweep across the Polish plains
from the Vistula to -gamble, for
the enemy's capital before" the
groggy nazis had a chance to
rally for Its defense.
German descriptions indicated
the massive weight Zhukov was
throwing into his plunge.
The nazi designation of the im
mediate Soviet objective as Kus
trln, at the confluence of the Oder
and Warthe 17 miles northeast of
Frankfurt, suggested that Zhu-
kov's assault forces might have
broken through the outlying
perimeter of Berlin's defenses for
a quick grab at the river city
which is the last of any size be
fore Berlin on the trunk railway
from Danzig.
New I'liHh Developed
Driesen and Neu Bentschen, the
outer limits of Zhukov's intensi
fied push as reported by Berlin,
are 42 miles apart and a few miles
inside Germany from the north
western and southwestern arcs of
Poland's westernmost bulge.
The German reports indicated
that Zhukov's first White Russian
army had crossed the border in
great strength, and Moscow dis
patches said that after breaking
through the line of the Obra his
armor and mobile Infantry were
rolling on toward Frankfurt.
"In the Obra sector and north
of the Netze river at Driesen the
enemy attacked with strong for
ces In the westerly direction," the
German high command said,
"heavy fighting Is in progress."
The thrust across the Obra,
which winds 75 to 100 miles east
of Berlin, carried the Soviets Into
the capital's home province of
Brandenburg while other Russian
colums were rolling unchecked
across Pomcranla within 90 miles
northeast of the city.

I would prefer not to be secre

Although his nomination by
President Roosevelt to the com
merce post, which presently con
trols the loan agencies, Is under
fire in the senate, Wallace was
encouraged by a praiseful letter
from the president, read to the
meeting by Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt.
Existence of the letter was re-
vealed for the first time at the
testimonial dinner sponsored by
the Union for Democratic Action,
presided over by Bruce Bliven,
editor of the New Republic. It
was written Jan. 17, five days be
fore Mr. Roosevelt nominated
