General MacArthura head quarterr, Australia, Aug. 7 (IP) United Statei equipment tent to Australia Is a "trickle" which could be replaced by three dayi of America's war production, ac cording to an authoritative source who cannot be specifi cally identified. He was unable, he said, to disclose the exact figures because of military se crecy, but he declared Australia was carrying her own load and any view that great sacrifices were being made in war areas elsewhere for Australia's de fense were unwarranted. Other areas are not being stripped of war goods for her benefit, he said. The Australian and American public has been somewhat con fused concerning the situation because of necessary secrecy, he continued, but he said he could disclose that the greatest part of the defense forces of Aus tralia are Australian. The inci dent to this defense from abroad would scarcely compensate for BOYD'S ARK JGj DIAL 3681 108 N. Iry Street I jl Prompt, Convenient, Courteous S. ft K.

Few Plane Although in the air a much greater relative percentage of strength In the Southwest Paci fic is American, it is "insignifi cant" when compared with American potentialities, he added. As to United States ships, he said, these would little more than balance the losses of serv ices of Australian ships abroad. Norman Stockton, the Mel bourne Herald's war correspond ent, asserted today that the time had come for some very plain speaking on the subject of mili tary aid to Australia. "We do not want another Malaya, another Java, yet I say all the potentialities are here," he declared. "Our capacity to defend Australia depends upon the aid we receive from the United State. "For the time being, at least, MacArthur, the most offensive minded of all allied generals, has been placed in the position where apparently he cannot take the offensive. "The United States has con sidered that this country, in the wider strategy of global war, must play a secondary role for the balance of mz perhaps longer." FIND BODY IN LAKE finnban.

(T) State police and FBI agents searched today for an incendi ary, believed to have set a fire which last night virtually de stroyed the big J. H. Chambers and Son sawmill here and two other blazes in this area within the past two weeks. Chief of State Police Charles Pray said he thought a "danger ous pyromaniac" was on the loose. He classed the three fires as a single case on which every man of the state police investigation department was working. FBI agents went into action immedi ately. Chambers estimated the fire damage at his mill at $300,000 It was one of the three largest mills in Lane county with a daily capacity of 130,000 board feet. The fire swept the mill, dry kiln, planing mill and 3,000, 000 feet of lumber, he said. Previously the $73,000 home of Walter Woodard, Cottage Grove lumberman, was burned. A few days later his mill had a $40,000 fire. Police Chief Myron Perry of Cottage Grove also reported evi dence pointing to arson in the Chambers mill blare. 91STBUYS $4,076 F Men of the 01st Infantry Divi sion at Camp White are not only training to ficht the Axis with bullets and mechanized equip-1 meni wnen the time comes, they are right now doing their part with dollars, plenty of them.

Erb Says Freedom Must Be Purchased In Many Payments Klamath Falls, Aug. 7 (JPh- Freedom must be bought on the installment plan with a never- ending series of payments, Dr. Donald M.

Washington, Aug. 7. &l A compilation of congress' fiscal activity showed today that the staggering sum of $203,314,657, 286 had been appropriated or authorized between June 1, 1640 to June 30, 1943 for expenditure to provide the nation's defense and war needs. The figures, including a break down of both war-necessitated and "normal" appropriations voted this year, were prepared by the bureau of the budget and were placed In the congressional record by Senator Glass (D-Va) and Rep. Cannon (D-Mo), chair men of the house and senate ap propriations committee. Mostly For War Of the $139,770,114,641 ap propriated during this session, Cannon pointed out that approx imately $133,370,000,000 was ear-marked for war purposes while approximately $6,400.000,. 000 was tagged for ordinary costs of government. Glass, in his analysis of the figures, declared that congress had reduced appropriations for the normal activities of govern ment by $1,667,005,150.89 below last year's figures, and made in creases in that category of $579,872,154, leaving a net cut of $1,087,132,996.71. Made In Advance In citing the three-year $205, 514,657,286 total on the books far war expenditures, Cannon eirmhasized that the figure did not represent actual expendi tures. "Appropriations and authoriz ations," he said, "need to be made far in advance in order that programs of orders for ma terial, weapons, naval vessels. merchant ships and all other war-effort requirements may be integrated with the recruitment and training of manpower, and the long range planning and con duct of the war in the various theatres of action where that way may be fought.
