FDR fo Ask
For Wallace
Washington, July 13 (U.R) A
well-i n f o r m e d congressional
source asserted today that
President Roosevelt may an
nounce very soon possibly to
day or tomorrow that he
would again like Henry A. Wal
lace of Iowa to be his vice pres

Mr. Roosevelt, it was under
stood, will emphasize that he
has no wish to dictate a vice
presidential choice to next
week's democratic national con
vention, but will add that if
he were a delegate, his vote
would go to his 55-year-old
third term partner.
This source, one of the presi
dent's most loyal'congressional
supporters, asserted that the
chief executive had drafted
such a statement and that it
could be expected in the near
future, perhaps today or at his
news conference tomorrow.
It was at his news conference
Tuesday that Mr. Roosevelt de
clared his availability for a
fourth term nomination. He
said nothing regarding his pref
erence for a vice presidential
running mate, but it would sur
prise no one here for him to en
dorse Wallace.

Trapped Japs
Attack Allies
Advanced Allied Headquar
ters, New Guinea, July 13 (PI
Ending two months of smolder
ing quiet, Japan's trapped, by
passed 18th army has suddenly
and viciously attacked Ameri
cans entrenched near Aitape,
British New Guinea.
Headquarters announced to
day that the Japanese, faced
with starvation or eventual
erasure between advancing
Australian and American
troops, had massed a heavy
force, apparently in the hooe
of blasting an escape route for
45,000 men westward through
Aitape into Dutch New Guinea.
"Opening skirmishes with our
outguard and reconnaissance
groups now are taking place,"
the communique reported.
The Japanese, after massing
for several days, attacked Mon
day night along the Driniumor
river 21 miles east of American
occupied Aitape.
The - Americans, veterans of
the New Guinea campaigns at
Buna and Saidor, dug in and
held.
The Japanese renewed their
assaults Tuesday. Results of
that action have not been dis
closed. Allied planes raked the
130 miles of enemy-held coast
east to the Australian-held
Sepik river.
A headquarters spokesman,
asked why the Japs were trying
to break out of the trap, said:
"they lose if they sit because
they'll starve to death."

Chungking, July 13 (U.B
Chinese troops massed for an
all-out assault today on the Ja
panese stronghold of Tengchung
after American Mitchell me

the city's ancient wall.
A communique said the Chi

last strongpoints outside of
Tengchung, west of the Salween
river, and were preparing for a
thrust into the city through the
breach in the wall.
The 14th airforce bombers,
together with fighter planes,
were giving steady support to
the Chinese forces in Yunnan
province, and. also carried out
new attacks on Lungling, the
twin base of Tengchung, and a
junction point on the Burma

FDR to Confer
With Churchill
Washington, July 13 (VP) A
meeting between President
Roosevelt and Prime Minister
Churchill may come about be
fore long, the way cleared in
part by Mr. Roosevelt's drama
tic revision of French policy to
permit practical cooperation
with General Charles De Gaulle.
The problem of Anglo-American
relations with De Gaulle's
national committee of libera
tion has been one of the most
difficult ever to trouble the
course of affairs which have to
be handled jointly by Washing
ton and London.
The president and the prime
minister have at various times
been fairly close together in
their desire not to recognize the
committee as a provisional gov
ernment, but Mr. Churchill's po
sition has been complicated first
by the fact that his own foreign
office has long favored recog
nition and second by indications
that this attitude in recent
months . has become increasing
ly widespread throughout the
British government.
Had this recognition issue re
mained In a highly unsettled
condition with allied armies in
France, it would undoubtedly
have colored all the discussions
of Mr. Roosevelt and Mr.
Churchill In their expected
talks.
No time for these talks has
been indicated. The president
however, has hinted at two
news conferences that he ex
pects to see the prime minister
this summer or fall and that he
would probably make the trip
to Britain this time Instead of
having Mr. Churchill come
over.

Mislrial Ruled
In Casey Case
As a jury was being selected
Thursday morning in Judge E.
M. Page's court for trial of the
case of state vs. Orval Casey on
a charge of grand larceny for
the alleged taking of certain
household effects from the
cabin of Mr. and Mrs. A. N.
Bayly on the little north fork
of the Santiam, state policemen
cttme marching into the court
room carrying a washtub load
ed high with the evidence. In
cluded were blankets and other
effects which it was alleged
had been taken from the house.
Attorneys for Casey imme
diately moved the court for a
mistrial because of the effect
of this action might have on the
jury and the motion was grant
ed. It was indicated that the
district attorney's office would
ask that the case be retried at a
later date..
The jury was excused but
the court announced that it
would go ahead Thursday aft
ernoon and start the trial of
Harry Wampole Casebeer. Case
beer was indicted along with
Orval Casey and Alva Casey for
larceny in the cabin of Mr. -and
Mrs. J. N. Adams also on the
little north fork of the Santiam.
Casebeer also was charged in a
separate Indictment with re
ceiving and concealing stolen
property, but the trial sched
uled for Thursday afternoon
will be based on the joint indict
ment charging larceny. All
three of the men were jointly
indicted, but demanded separ
ate trials.
wnen the evidence was
brought into the courtroom
Thursday morning in the Orval
Casey case as the jurors were
being examined, two jurors had
already been passed for cause
but as yet had not been sworn
In, although accepted.
The evidence in question had
been stacked In the lobby out
side the courtroom befqre the
trial started. In addition to
blankets and other effects, there
was a large mounted deer head
which attracted considrable at
tention. But this had not been
brought into the courtroom
when the motion for a mistrial
was made.
There were Indications dur
ing the noon hour Thursday
that some effort might be made
to make disposition of the three
cases before the judge, but no
decision in that connection had
been announced.
