Long Struggle of Jugoslavs .
Now Full-Fledged Warfare;
Allies May Send Expedition
By Louis T. Keemle
United Press War Analyst
The long struggle of the Jugoslav patriot army baa developed
from more or less scattered guerilla warfare Into what amounts
to another military front against the Germans.
It if likely to develop much further, now that the allies are
sending substantial material aid to Marshal Josip (Tito) Brozovlch.
It logical conclusion is likely to be the landing of a large expedi
tionary force which would create a major Italian-Balkan front
a "third front ln relation to me
western Europe front yet to be opened.
Developed During Year.
The full-fledged warfare now
sudden development, but has been
about a year. Allied participation at first seemed hesitant, or at
least on a minor scale. The Inactive forces of Gen. Draja Mikhail o
vltch, war minister of the exiled King Peter's regime, are still recog
nized nominally as the duly constituted army of Jugoslavia.
However, Tito proved his right to recognition by force of arms.
directed with considerable success against the common enemy, Ger
many. The argument was unanswerable. A British military mis
sion was sent and American military observers appeared on the
scene. Russia likewise sent a mission. These facts, and the fact
that' substantial aid was being sent, were officially stated ln Lon
don and Washington this month.
ln Egypt of representatives of Tito's army and members of the al
lied middle eastern command.
Tito Has 250,000 Soldiers.
The strength of Tito's army Is
ized as a regular army on orthodox lines and now well-equipped,
with allied aid. In addition it hi
Tito's partisans, Considerable ln number which carries on valu
able guerrilla activity, especially ln disrupting the generous Ger
man Balkan communications lines.
According to British sources,

German offensive against them, now ln progress, Is being success
fully blocked.
The Germans do not apear to
this dangerous threat with the forces In hand. The possibilities for
the allies are obvious.
News Behind
The News
By Paul Mallon
(OonUnued from Fase One)
was an obvious Russian demand
to cut off the nazl besiegers of
the north tip of the line ln front
of Leningrad.
HTHE nails claim 250,000 Rus-
slans were concentrated for
It, which would make It one of
the heaviest red drives of ihe
war, but there Is question
whether Stalin's skillful gener
als are not now using it for other
than obvious purposes.
If coming weather prevents Its
complete fulfillment (as the Ger
mans suspect, else they would
not be giving It so much adver
tising), It nevertheless will serve
to force Hitler to withdraw
planes and support from the
Kiev front In order to hold his
communications - with Finland
and the northern anchor of his
line.
e e e
PAR more significant than this
drive Is the .collapse of the
nazl counter-attack against Kiev.
Hitler had thrown everything he
could spare into this last gasp
offensive of 1943. The attack
had both energy and equipment.
Yet it has failed to reach more
than half-way toward Its goal,
the city of Kiev.
This la a nazl defect of the
magnitude of the failure of Its
counterdrive of July 1, which
failed to stem the Russian ad'
vance, and thus enable the Ger
mans to dig ln on a winter line
on the Dnieper. They hed to con
tinue to retreat
This one Is being covered
skillfully by nazl propaganda
(playing up the Nevel front), and
the reds have not made much of
It yet, but It certainly means the
bravest German effort ln six
months has collapsed. With wtn
ter weather closing ln to freeze
the failure, Hitler's long line an
expect hard, continuous winter
fighting, he was unable
lleve the situation. '
e
IN ALL communiques, emphasis
Is placed on territory gained.
That Is the customary way In
which military matters are pre
sented to the public.
But the real Russian objective
this winter Is not Poland or Ber
lin, or even the Baltic coastline,
but the destruction of the Ger
man army. If this can be ac
complished, the Russians will
reach the German capital by
spring. It has not been done yet

SAILORS WITH BLACKHEADS AND PIMPLES
Soldiers and sailors, I gather
from their letters, are afflicted
with the same physical and ment
al troubles as
are youths ev-
4 erywhere, such
as dandruff and
premature fall
ing hair, acne
(black heads,
excessively oily
skin, pimples)
and a lot of
worry about
imaginary evils
that never hap
pen. Ds. Brady Many sailors
with acne feel that very little can
be done for them, report Lt.
Joseph M. Shelton CMC), U. S. N.
R., so lt Is a pleasure to note
that the favorable result ob
tained by relatively simple meas
ures have apparently prompted a
constantly Increasing number of
men to apply for treatment
For the common type of acne
pimples the sailors are given a
lotion to apply at night (we hope
the marines and doughboys will
not make any cracks about this):
Precipitated sulphur
.. 4 gm (teaspoonful)
Calamine, Zinc Oxide .
of each, 12 gm (3 teaspoonsful)
Glycerin. 6 cc. (2 teaspoonsful)
Lime water, enough to fill up
the 4-oz. bottle.
The lotion is to be shaken up
well and applied to the skin by
patting on with fingers, left to
dry on the skin.
In addition to that Dr. Shelton
says Increasing doses of cold
quartz ultra-violet lrradltlon are
given at 4-day intervals, 4 min
utes at 12 Inches distance at
first, the maximum dose not ex
ceeding 10 minutes.
If the combined use of the lo
tion and ultra-violet products too
much drying, the lotion 1 tempo
rarily suspended.
In the superficial pustular type
of acne, the naval surgeon re
ports to substitute B gm. of sul
fanilamide or sulfathlazole for
the sulphur ln the lotion.
Each acne patient, at this sta
tion, receives ' printed instruc
tions about diet and skin care.
The instructions say:

Luxury Gal Disappears As
Women Flock Into War Work
' By Dorothy Williams
United Press Correspondent
Washington. (U.R) The lux
ury gal, who neither toiled nor
spun, today appeared to m
casualty of World War II.
This tinsel-hour creature is
fast becoming as outmoded as
nylon hose, joyriding and pre
ration shopping. In her stead is
the American working woman.
Nearly one out of every four
United State women of 14 years
of age or older are working on
this second anniversary ot Pearl
Harbor, department of labor
estimates reveal.
Among the nearly 17,000,000
women workers, 2,500,000 are in
munitions-producing industries,
with 200,000 on duty as mem
bers of the armed services.
This represents an all-time
high ln the employment of worn'
en ln this country.
Approximately 4,400,000 more
American women have gone to
work since the Japanese struck
at Pearl Harbor.
Work outside their homes was
new experience tor many of
them, both teen-aged and gray-
haired, but now they re doing
everything from filing to weld
ing. Add to these the untold mil
lions of American women to
whom the war has brought ad'
dltlonal home and community
duties and you have a picture of
American womanpower ln an
all-out tight tor victory.
In the munitions-producing In
dustries alone, one out of every
tour workers Is a woman, where
prior to the war only one out of
every 10 workers was a woman.
During the past year alone an
additional 800,000 women have
found employment in Jobs di
rectly related to the forging of
weapons of war.
Rcughly 200,000 women have
tradl their favorite fripperies
for uniforms of one of the
armed services or one of the al
lied nursing corps. Two year
ago this nation counted less than
30,000 women all nurses ln
It armed forces.
Th last year saw the creation
ot the women's Marine corps as
a reserve group designed to free
devil dogs for combat and the
expansion of women's units ln
the Army, Navy and Coast
Guard.
By year's end en estimated
12,000 young women will be
wearing Marine "greens." Quo
tas call for an additional 6.000
by July 1, 1944, half of whom
are slated tor ground aviation
work such as control tower op
eration, parachute rigging, plane
repair and maintenance.
A Congressional act paved the
way for Uie absorption Into the

Raids Driven Off
Three Japanese air raids on

fighter patrols that shot down
12 enemy dive bombers and four
fighters, and probably destroyed
three other planes. Damage to
the American ground installa

light, a- communique said.
At the same time, allied air
force continued on the attack,
sinking a Japanese troop trans
port and a supply ship off New
