Br Virgil FlnkUr United Press Correspondent Fifteenth Air Force GHQ, . Italy, Jan. 25 U.R When the Red army ' captures Breilau it will rob Germany of one of iti few major remaining tource of oil supply, 15th air force stratr agist pointed out today. They described Breslau as the center of a mining and manu facturing industry which prob ably Is leu damaged by bomb ing than any other Important industrial area in Germany. When the Russians move through Silesia they will see evidence of the work done by the 15th air force similar to that done in Rumania and Hun gary where a long string of oil plants and storage plant have been knocked out or damaged. Push Battle of Oil In the last year the Allied air forces have devoted great at tention to the battle of oil. For 'instance the 15th In many .months concentrated half or more of its effort on pushing home the attack to cut down Germany's oil mid gasoline supply. Eighteen months ago It was estimated that Germany's cur rent oil supply came one-third ' from Rumania, one-third from synthetic plants and one-third from crude oil produced in the Reich, Austria, Hungary, and Poland. The Rumanian supplies have been lost. Most of the crude oil fields in Hungary are gone and the remaining smaller supplies ef Austria, Germany, and Po land are now threatened. All 13 of Germany's major synthetio plants have been bombed repeatedly. The Slleslan - cluster of syn thetio plants produces about 35 to 50 per cent of Germany's to tal output. As a result of heavy bombings In November and De cember it is estimated that their total production has been cut to about one-tenth of capacity. That was accomplished de spite constantly stronger Ger man defenses, chiefly flak belts nd smoke screens and in creased employment of radar. Oil plants which a year ago had SO to 50 flak guns today have more than 300. Strategists regard the loss to Germany of Silesia and the Im portant industrial triangle of Poland around Krakow as sec ond In importance only to the Ruhr and Saar regions. Silesia has long furnished Vienna and Munich with most of their coal for industrial and domestic uses. Shortage of oil recently has sharply reduced the employ ment of the Luftwaffe which is estimated to have 2,000 first line fighters but employs them only when conditions are ex tremely favorable.

PAUL WANER SAID BEST BATTER IN COAST BASEBALL By Hal Wood United Press Correspondent San Francisco, Jan. 25 (U.PJ Who was the greatest hitter In the history of Paclfio Coast league baseball? Not Joe DIMaggio, not Buzz Arlett, not Babe Herman and probably aot any one of a half dozen other names which might come to the average fan s mind. "The finest hitter I've seen," says the Veteran Charles Gra ham, owner of the San Francisco Seals, "was Paul Waner, who came to me from Oklahoma. "True, lots of the boys com piled better averages than Wan er. But Paul had the finest eyes in the game and he could hit squarely any ball ho could reach." Waner, of course, went on to prove his ability by playing championship baseball in the majors over a long period of years. In a reminiscent mood Oraham recalled bis introduction to Paul. "Waner had come to us from Oklahoma with a bunch of clip pings saying he had won 48 games as a pitcher in sandlot oaseail. "Well, the first time we used him was as a pinch-hitter, and Tom Hughes was on the mound for Los Angles, leading us 2-0, with two down in the ninth "Hughes had the boys eating out of his hand, but then a cou pie of our men got on and we sent In Paul to hit. "The first ball pitched Waner reached out and clouted against the outfield screen but the ball, instead of dropping back was hit with such force that it went tight through for a home run to give us a 3-2 victory."

The proposal was contained in a new CED research report by Richard A. Lester, Duke univer sity economics professor. Con gress, he said, should "delay no longer" in making more ade quate provision for reconversion employment so that the regular sessions of 44 state legislatures can take appropriate co-operative action early this year,' The CED, which was founded and is financed by business men. was said to be preparing a for mal policy recommendation in corporating Lester's proposal, Gary Cooper III, Ordered To Bed Hollywood, Jan. 25 (U.R) Rugged Screen Star Gary Coop er was ordered to bed today to recuperate from an amoebic In fection he contracted on an en tertainment tour of the South Pacific combat areas last year.
