Sharp Downturn
Rye Futures
Chicago, June 21 U.P.l Re
ports that the plan to use 1,000,
000 bushels of rye in the pro
duction of industrial alchohol
had been abandoned led to a
sharp downturn in rye futures
and easiness in other grains on
the Board of Trade today. Late
prices staged a partial recovery.
' Rye finished the day off 1 M
to l7-4 cents a bushel; wheat
off to 1 oats off 1 to
and barley quoted off to off
cent.
Rye scored initial advances
"on news that distillers would
be permitted to make beverage
alcohol in August. The market
reversed the trend as the trade
later regarded this as indica
tive of the heavy supplies of
rye on hand. Prices fluctuated
and an uncertain lone prevail
ed. Wheat traders sold Influenced
by the alcohol program which
led them to believe that if some
alcohol ran be released for bev
erage use the need for the in
dustrial product no longer is
urgent.
Inasmuch as wheal was used
principally in industrial alco
hol, this was regarded as a
bearish factor. Combined with
lessening feed grain demand
and an estimated bumper wheat
crop the outlook tended toward
a bearish market, graders said.
Oats moved with other grains.
Demand stemmed from short
cover! ng while commission
houses anad the local trade

This campaign is being waged
on a different basis than those
which preceded in that few spec
tacular stunts are to be em
ployed as an inducement for the
purchase of bonds. One excep
tion to this program is the giv
ing away of a late model auto
mobile which was parked on the
Court street side of bond head
quarters Wednesday. The ma
chine will find an owner next
July 4 when the bond commit
tee will cooperate with the

of an old fashioned celebration.
The J. C. Penney company
has put up 240 bends as prizes
to be awarded employes who

current drive. At the present
time the Salem store Is leading
the entire organization. Dur

employes of the Salem store
placed on the prize list with Mrs.
Sally Harlan topping all sales
men for the 1600 units.
Salem merchants were asked
to devote a portion of their
window space to displays bear

Greatest Naval
(Continued from page 1)
Japan is believed to have nine
to 15 battleships and an unde
termined number of aircraft
carriers, cruisers and destroy
ers. The American fifth fleet, un
der Admiral Raymond A. Spru-
ance, conquerer of the the Gil
bert and Marshall Islands, al
ready was known to include the
largest carrier task force in his
tory, as well as battleships,
cruisers, destroyers and other
warships.
The Domci agency said the
fleet was composed of the
"greater part of the enemy's
warships in the Pacific ocean."
Scene or Battle
Battleground for what well
may turn out to be the greatest
naval engagement in history
was some 2,000,000 square
miles of the western Pacific
bound in the east by the Mar
ianas, the west by the Philip
pines, the south by Palau and
the north by Japan itself.
Nimitz told his press confer
ence that he hoped the Japanese
fleet would remain in the area
and "give us a chance to get at
them."
"I dont know anything else
we can do to provoke fleet ac
tion," he said. "We have al
ready attacked their key posi
tion in the western Pacific."
"Unfortunately, I don't con
trol their movements. Tf I did,
then there would be a fight,"
Reason for News Delay
He explained the lack of up-to-date
news on the naval situa
tion by saying that develop
ments in the war at sea must
of necessity remain obscure for
long periods.
"In the fog of war, we know
the Japanese are confused and
I like to wait until the opera
lion is completed," he said.
"Then you see, Saipan is a very
lough operation. We felt and
hoped the Japs would attempt
to interfere for that reason,
we went in in great strength."
Nimilz disclosed that he in
tends to seize other bases, in
addition to Saipan, in the Mar
ianas to challenge effectively
Japanese control of the last big
area of the western Pacific they
stilt dominate.
Possession of the Marianas,
he said, would be "money in
the bank" to protect operations
hundreds of miles westward
toward the Philippines and
China and northward toward
Japan itself. Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur's forces will be able to
cover the southern portion from
bases in the southwest Pacific,
he said.

Snell Endorses
Federal Aid .
Eugene, Ore., June 21 U.f
Oregon should accept federal
aid in providing post-war em
ployment because it cannot
handle the problem alone, Gov
ernor Earl Snell told the an
nual convention of the Oregon
State Federation of Labor here
Tuesday night.
In discussing the theme of the
session, preparedness for after
the war, D. E. Nickerson, execu
tive secretary of the organiza
tion, said, "no other element is
so important in assuring post
war prosperity as that of col
lective bargaining."
He asserted that the goal of
full employment is not unat
tainable in the post-war period.
Labor means by full employ
ment "the opportunity for every
worker to find and hold a job
for such time as he wishes, and
the opportunity to change to
another employer or to remove
to another location without a
lng period of employment," he
explained.
Wayne L. Morse, republican
nominee for United States sen
ator, said the goal of labor and
management should be to get
government out of handling la
bor's affairs.
3.4 Millions
Now in Navy
Washington, June 21 WPI The
personnel strength of the navy,
marine corps and coast guard
stood at 3.400,646 men and wo
men on May 1, Senator Walsh
(D., Mass.) reported today in a
senate document entitled "the
decline and renaissance of the
navy, 1922-1944."
The total included 8,727 wo
men officers and 71,980 enlisted
women.
In contrast, the total strength
of the navy and marine corps
on June 30, 1938, was 11,695
officers and 122.631 men, said
Walsh, who is chairman of the
senate naval affairs committee.
After reviewing the decline
of naval strength from the dis
armament conference of 1922
until the late 30's, Walsh noted
that the navy's permanent au
thorized strength today is 5,
299,480 tons of battleships, air
craft carriers, cruisers, destroy
ers and submarines, compared
with 780,000 tons of under-age
ships and 300,800 tons of over
all vessels at the end of 1932.
Moff Coming Home
For Vacation June 30
Rep. James Mott will arrive
in Oregon June 30 for a vaca

cording to word received here
by Mrs. Mott today.
The congressman plans to
leave Washington on Saturday
of this week for Chicago where
he will stop over for three or
four days to attend the republi
can national convention. Mrs.
Mott will meet him in Portland
and they will leave from there
to spend a week or more in se
clusion at an unidentified resort
before returning to their farm

Bus Travelers Turn
Back From Portland
Seattle. June 21 (U.R W. H.
Somers, traffic manager of the
North Coast Transportation
company, yesterday reported
scores of bus travelers were
turning back from Portland be
cause of inability to get trans
portation south of here.
He said that bus tickets were
now being sold in Portland un
der the provision they would

Witness Describes Conquest

Aboard an Expeditionary Force Flagship, Saipan. June 21
(East Longitude Time) IU.R Rolling back remnants of two Japa
nese divisions in a wide sweep across the island, American forces
who stormed Saipan six days
ago now occupy southern Sai
pan in strength including As
lito airfield, the greatest prize
of the Marianas.
From this 3600 foot airfield
necessary for protection against
the developing Japanese air at
tacks, American land-based air
craft have done a lone job of
keeping the skies clear.

Ban on Gigli,
Italian Tenor
Rome. June 21 WPi Beniami
no Gigli, former Metropolitan
opera tenor, has been forbid
den to sing at a concert for al
lied soldiers.
Maj. Gen. Henry H. Johnson,
military governor of Rome, is-
SUo- ihe order.
Gigli was scheduled to appear
with other artists in a musical
program at the Rome opera
house tomorrow night.
He was removed from the con
cert, it was reported, because
he was closely associated with
the fascists and nazis and sang
in Germany under nazi auspices
earlier in the war.
There was considerable dis
agreement among allied authori
ties over whether Gigli's fas
cist past should bar him. The
ban was issued finally on the
grounds that "the time is not
oppbrtune" for the appearance
at an army concert of an artist
with such connections.
First attacks on Gigli's ap
pearance came from Italian
newspapers. He was an ardent
supporter of Mussolini.
Foreign Plank
GOP Platform
Chicago, June 21 UP) Repub
lican leaders moved rapidly to
day toward a pre-convention ac
cord on a foreign policy plat
form plank pledging interna
tional cooperation, backed by
military force, to preserve the
world's future peace.
Senator Austin (R., Vt.)
brought to Chicago a one-page
typewritten delcaration of for
eign policy which, he told a re
porter ,was patterned closely
after the Mackinac postwar ad.
visory council statement.
The plan was understood to
go beyond the Mackinac pledge
for "responsible participation by
the United States in post-war co
operative organization among
sovereign nations to prevent
military aggression," with a re
ference to the use of military
force to back up this organiza
tion. The proposed plank was des
scribed as projecting the estab
lishment of an international tri
bunal to settle judicially the dis
putes among the nations.
Drafted by an advisory com
mittee headed by Senator Van
denberg (R., Mich.) the plank
was understood to have been ap
proved in principle by friends
of Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of
New York, a possible presiden
tial nominee. It also has receiv
ed the tentative approval of Sen
ator Taft (R., Ohio) a supporter
of Gov. John W. Brickcr of
Ohio for the nomination.
Significance Seen in
Pope-Taylor Parley
Vatican City, June 21 (U.R)
Pope Pius XII conferred today
with President Roosevelt's per
sonal emissary, Myron C. Tay
lor, reviving speculation over
a new European peace move
centering about the Holy See.
The pontiff granted a private
audience to Taylor and his aide,
Harold Tittman, after which the
Americans were scheduled to
meet with Luigi Cardinal Mag
lione. papal secretary of state.
Taylor held a press confer
ence with American corre
spondents yesterday, but he re
fused to discuss the purpose of
his visit or even to say how
long he expected to remain in
Rome.
He intimated, however, that
he intends .to see a large num
ber of foreign diplomats, thus
giving his trip an international
aspect and causing the peren
nial peace reports to be revived.

in a vain attempt to cripple our
amphibious force, but did not
succeed in sinking a single
American ship.
Driving northwest and south
of their Saipan beachhead, the
Americans smashed toward Ma
gicienne bay on the east and ex
panded their 800-yard beach
head to nearly a third of the
island.
Army reinforcements and
heavy artillery were landed on
the southern beaches to support
the hard-pressed marines who
bore the brunt of the first fight
ing and paved the way for a
general attack along the entire
line.
Supported by a coordinated
artillery and naval bombard
ment, the Americans struck the
Japanese at many points. The
attack around Charon Kanoa,
where Americans were once
compelled to withdraw almost to
the beach, started in a heavy
tropical downpour which drew
a curtain of rain over the op
posing troops.
While the army wheeled j
southwards over a ridge head
ing toward the airfield, the ma
rines struck north and east,
avenging the savage Japanese
counter-attacks which had ex
acted a heavy toll of marine
units during the first two days
of the battle. j
Advancing through the fire-:
blackened sugar cane stalks,
burned as a result of the ex
perienced gained in Hawaiian
cane fields, the marines with
strong tank support moved
southward along the coast to
ward Garapan. In shattering
battles, the marines knocked out
30 tanks with bazookas, de
cisively ending the enemy threat
at that point.
Showing amazing versatility,
the marines turned toward the
sea and fought a historic battle
with a group of 60-foot troop
laden barges from the Japanese
seaplane base at Flores Point
which attempted to land within
the American lines.
The Japanese armada was
caught between the fire of LCI
gunboats and that of the ma
rines. The enemy fleet was dis
persed after 13 barges were
blown up.
Through the muddy swamps
around Lake Susupe east of
Charon Kanoa, the marines ad
vanced to a point overlooking
Magicienne bay which they
reached after scattering a Japa
nese force which was forming
nearby.
The "pacification" was so ef
fective that soon hundreds of
Japanese civilians men, wom
en and children swarmed
there seeking safety and Ameri
can protection. They are being
fed and housed in camps.
Saipan proved to be Japan's
main arsenal in the Marianas.
I watched naval guns blasting
shore targets, and shells and
bombs ripping open deeply hid
den oil and ammunition dumps
honeycombing the mountain
slopes, indicating a war stores
accumulation of many years. On
the southern coast caves were
found stuffed full of ammuni
tion. Community Cannery

Taylor Seems
Sure Nominee
Boise, Idaho, June 21
Glen H. Taylor, former coMy
minstrel and strong backer f
President Roosevelt, appeared
certain of Idaho's democratic U.
S. senate nomination today as
official returns from 17 outlying
precincts in Idaho county
brought his lead over incumbent
D. Worth Clark to 178 vote?.
With 838 of 845 precincts re
porting, Taylor held 10,722 to
Clark's 10.544.
With only seven of the state's
845 precincts three in bound
ary county and four in Cassia
county still to report, it ap
pears unlikely that Clark can
pick up the votes necessary for
his renomination.
Secretary of State George
Curtis said the official county
canvass returns were coming in
so slowly that the state board
of canvassers would be unable
to meet until Monday. It is sup
posed to meet Saturday and Tflr-
tify the results by Monday.
