Broadcast by Nelson at 6:30 Tonight to Nip Axis Propaganda Washington, Marcn 17. ( War Production Chief Donald M. Nelson will make a "state ment to the nation" tonight in a special broadcast designed to counteract axis propaganda which officials said described the production speed up drive as an attempt 'to "Sovietize" American industry. WPB officials announced that the statement would climax a brief dramatization of the pro duction drive over NBC, CBS and Mutual Broadcasting net works between 6:30 and 1p.m. (Pacific war time), and that it "will cover a lot of ground." The suddenly scheduled speech, it was understood, was arranged principally to block cleverly-handled "sniping" b y axis propagandists here and abroad. In this country, it was reported, axis agents have act ively supplemented Berlin and Tokyo radio broadcasts aimed against the management-labor committees established by Nel son as a nucleus for the speed up in armament production.

FIRST NATIONAL OF PORTLAND Alcohol Grain Plan Making Progress Is WPB Director's Word Washington, March 17 VP William L. Batt, materials r ector for the war production board, said today that the pro gram for production of alcohol from grain in place of sugar or molasses was "going forward successfully." At almost the same time Frasier H. Moffatt. chief of the W.L.B. alcohol section, said he foresaw the day when no sugar would be required for alcohol production. Batt talked at a press con ference and said that if the pro gram for converting beverage distilleries to industrial alcohol production Is completed this year a saving of molasses equal to 550,000 tons of sugar will result. Moffatt told the house small business committee that about 700,000 tons of sugar would be needed for alcohol this year but the bulk of the expected pro duction of 355,000,000 gallons of alcohol would come from grains and blackstrap molasses.
