Axis Sees Allies
Taking Big Risks
Stockholm, July 13 OP)
Rome dispatches to Swedish
newspapers said today Italian
commentators had admitted that
the allied invasion forces in Si
cily were driving toward Mes
sina but at "great risk."
Stockholm's Tidningen quot
ed a spokesman as declaring
that the allies are "playing for
very high stakes." Allessan
dro Pavolini, Italy's former pro
paganda minister, answering
Italians who are asking how it
was possible that the allies could
land on Sicily in such force in
view of Premier Mussolini's re
cent invasion speech in which he
was quoted as declaring they
would be stopped at the sea, ad
vised them "not to take-Mussolini's
words too literally," the
paper said.
While the Italian press and
commentators were taking a se
rious view of developments in
Sicily, dispatches to the Swed
ish press from Berlin described
German spokesmen as being
"optimistic."
Stockholm's Tidningen said
Berlin asserted that "practically
speaking," the American troops
have been "liquidate," although
a few American detachments are
fighting in "hopeless positions."
Supplies for
Civilians Short
Washington, July 13 (U.R)
The war production board's of
fice of civilian requirements be
lieves stocks of civilian sup
plies will hit a "dangerously
low point' by November, it was
learned today.
Christmas will be a lean one
this year, a high OCR official
said, unless steps are taken now
to replenish necessary items.
He said that retail inventories
already are depleted to, and in
some instances are below, the
danger point.
The civilian requirements di
vision is formulating a program
for the manufacture of suffi
cient quantities of civilian sup
plies to bring back stocks of
neede items closer to normal.
It may be ready to present to
War Mobilization Director
James F. Byrnes next month.
The OCR spokesman admit
ted that th program would run
into strong military opposition,
but added that the OCR is plan
ning to defend its position
that civilians need certain items
to keep up morale and effi
ciency. "We are asking for more for
the last quarter of this year
than is now being manufactur
ed,' the official said. Vend we
are particularly asking that
personal items the perplexing,
miserable little things that can
upset civilians when missing
be manufactured in quantities
that will take care of demand."

Post-war Bridge
FinancePlanned
Members of the county court
Tuesday afternoon are at Dallas
In discussion with the Polk
county court as to what proposi
tion will be made to the state
highway commission here next
Saturday as to what steps the
two counties will take toward
pay their respective shares into
into a reserve for a new inter
county bridge over the Willam
ette river at Independence as a
post-war project.
Tentatively the plan is for
each of the counties to pay one
eighth of the cost of the struc
ture, or a fourth of it between
them. This would leave the
other three-fourths to be borne
by the state and federal govern
ments. The present estimated cost of
such a bridge is $300,000 which
would mean that Polk and Mar
ion counties would each pay
$37,500 into the project, this
money to be set aside in a sink
ing fund for the purpose. It is
expected that Independence and
Salem people interested in the
project will also be at Tuesday
afternoon's meeting.

Knox Says Sub
War Not Won
Washington. Julv 13 U.
Secretary of Navy Frank Knox
warned today that it would be
"the worst kind of folly" to as
sume from recent good rennrts
that the Atlantic submarine war
is won.
"I haven't n Hnuht hut what
it will break out again," Knox
said at a press conference.
"It is utterly erroneous to
assume that the submarine war
is over. We'll have troubles
with submarines probably right
up to the end of the war in
greater or less degree.
"The maximum to be said
with safety is that we've reduced
the sinking of allied shins ma
terially."
Knox was questioned on ru
more that the nowerful .Tannn.
ese naval base at Paramushiru
in the Kuriles had been bombed
By American planes from Attu.
"There is nothing I can talk
about," he replied.
He added that he would not
deny or affirm" the rumors
which were heard here yester
day.
Knox said that he found dur
ing his recent 8000-mll rin
to the west and gulf coasts that
navy establishments were "all
running at top pace."
The most serious problem the
navy has in these areas is ent.
ting civilian employes to work
in navy establishments, he said.
Due to a campaign, however,
this manpower shortage is be
ing materially reduced. Knox
said.
The secretary said that he was
"amazed at the civilian morale
in the northwest."

New Draft Laws
Contemplated
Washington, July 13 (P)New
draft legislation, including a
proposal to require all adult
men and women to register
for service in the war effort,
will be the subject of exten
sive hearings by the house mili
tary affairs committee when the
congressional recess ends in
September.
By that time, Chairman May
(D., Ky.), said today, the com
mittee hopes to have available
more data bearing on the pros
pect of inducting fathers.
"Whether we shall expedite
legislation, already passed by
the senate, to boost the govern
ment payments to dependents
of drafted men will depend in
a large measure on the outlook
two months from now," May
said.
May said hi shared a general
belief among committee mem
bers that the Induction of fath
ers would be put off for some
time, perhaps indefinitely. In
that event, he explained, the
need for boosting federal pay
ments already provided would
be lessened.
However, he added, should
the outlook in September in
dicate the early induction of
fathers, additional financial pro
visions for them would have to
be made speedily by congress.
Also on the committee's dock
et for early consideration is the
Austln-Wadsworth national ser
vice bill under which all men
and women would be required
to register for assignment to ser
vices where there was a need
for them in the armed forces,
industry or agriculture.
