Willkie made It known today he would support President Roosevelt in any ef fort to repeal cr modify the neutrality act. At the same time, reports reached Capitol hill that Secre tary Hull would urge the chief executive to recommend virtual scrapping of the present law. Returning this morning from a weekend sojourn at his Hyde Park estate, Mr. Roosevelt was expected to confer with Hull seme time today and to talk with legislative leaders tomor row before starting work on the special neutrality act message which congress looks for later this week. Conferences To Guide White House officials Indi cated that these two confer ences probably would determine whether the president would seek a limited modification of the law or its outright repeal. There have been reports that the president would confine himself to a request for author ity to arm American merchant ships. On the other hand, some informants have said he would tell congress he also should have the power to send American commercial vessels into belliger ent ports and combat areas now forbidden by the neutrality law. If both requests were granted only a skeleton of the law would remain. NIT1ATIVE IN AIR LEADER DECLARES (Continued from page One.) semble an army for Intensive invasion of the British islands. If Germany should take a de fensive stand in Russia, it cer tainly would be in Hitler's power to launch simultaneously attacks against Britain, Africa and Spain, the prime minister declared. Expressing willingness of the British to bomb Rome, Churchill stated: "People ask, 'why don't you bomb Rome? Did you not say you would bomb Rome if Cairo was bombed? What it the ans wer?' "One answer It that Cairo has not yet been bombed. Only mili tary positions in the outskirts have been bombed. "But, of course, we have the same right to bomb Rome as the Italians had to bomb London last year when they thought we were going to collapse, and we shouldn't hesitate to bomb Rome to the best of our ability and at heavily as possible if the course of the war should render such action convenient and helpful." On April 18 warning was Issued from the prime minister's residence that if either Athens or Cairo were bombed, reprisals would be carried out against Rome. Position Bettered Despite the grave warnings he gave, emphasizing that win ter gives no assurance "that the i danger of Invasion will be en- i tirely lifted from this Island," Churchill said Britain's position in shipping, food reserves and many other ways was better i than ever. "We have climbed from the j pit of peril onto a fairly broad plateau," he asserted. j "We can see before us the difficult and dangerous upward path that we must tread, but we can also feel the parallel movement of convergence of two mighty nations, Russia and the United States." British official figures for loes of British, allied and netf tral shipping useful to Britain ?re 589.273 tons for April, 497.- j 647 Ux iUy, tad J.9.iS9 tot MEDFORD MAIL OF ORDERED SLICED Government Tells Makers To Cut Output To 43.2 Percent Under Average. Washington, Sept. 30. AP) The government ordered makers of household mechanical refrig erators today to cut production for the last five months of 1941 to a level 43 2 per cent under average monthly output for the year which ended June 30, and warned that cuts in 1942 will probably be greater.." Thirty factories employing 43, 000 workers will feel the curtail ment Imposed by Priorities Di rector Donald M. Nelson as a meant of conserving steel and other strategic material! for de fense, needs. It was the second drastic cut Imposed on an industry produc ing durable consumer's goods. Automobile production for De cember recently was cut 48.4 per cent, and similar limitations are expected soon for washing ma chines, household ironers, vac uum cleaners and other items. Henderson's With The refrigerator order was based on recommendations of Leon Henderson, director of civ ilian supply, whose program called for production of only 2,007,000 refrigerators In the 12 months beginning Aug. 1. 1941, as compared with 3,670,000 units in the 12 months ended June 30, 1941. This curtailment was expected to release 173.000 tons of steel in the twelve month for produc tion of warships, cargo vessels, tanks and other defense items, as well as considerable quanti ties of aluminum, brass, chrom ium, copper, nickel, tin, zinc, mica and rubber. Monthly quotas for the refrig erator industry will total 175,519 units for each of the five months August to December, 1941, in clusive, as compared with aver age monthly output of 309,234 units in the 12 months ended last June 30. Because of seasonal produc tion variations, the curtailed out put will be only 2 per cent under production for the last five months of 1940, although consid erably under the level of recent months. However, production in the first seven months of 1942 is to be leveled off to a large ex tent. Instead of following the normal summer upswing. 1SH1T1VICE Olympia, Wash., Sept. 30. P Local and state officials agreed on a coordinated cam paign here today, to rid western Washington of vice conditions.

The meeting was called by the governor, at the suggestion of federal security and army of ficials, one of whom said the Pacific northwest is "one of the ; three worst places in the coun try, from a vice standpoint." I June, a total of 1,416,416 tons, but showing a consistent de cline. Two-thirds less apparently would be a total of only about 472,000 tons for the entire three months of July, August and Sep tember.
