PEELER IS SUED
FOR 12 ILL
IN LIBEL ACTION
Chicago, Oct. 3 (U.PJ Two
libel suits were on file here to
day asking $12,000,000 from
Westbrook Pegler, the Kings
Feature Syndicate, Inc., and the
Illinois Publishing and Printing
company, for allegedly intimat
ing that A. N. Spanel, president
of the International Labor cor
poration was a communist.
Plaintiffs in the case were
Spanel and the Latex corpora
tion. The first suit, filed in
federal court, asked $B,000,U00
from Pegler and the printing
company, publishers of the Chi
cago Herald-American. The sec
ond suit, asking a similar amount
from Kings Features, was filed
in Cook county circuit court.
Both were filed yesterday.
Plaintiffs Suffer
The petitions said the plain
tiffs suffered "public suspicion,
hatred, contempt and financial
injury" from Pegler's column of
March 15, 1945, made a nart
of the record which said in

FIGHT ANNA1IES
Saigon, French Indo-China,
Oct. 1 (Delayed) (U.R) British
and Japanese troops fought two
pitched battles against rebellious
Annamite forces in the Saigon
area last night and scattered
fighting was reported continuing
today.
The heaviest fighting occurred
along the Chinois river, where
the Annamites, using machine
guns, tried to seize a British-held
power station. The rebels were
driven off after a four-hour bat
tle. Japanese troops stationed in
the northern end of Saigon ran
into stiff opposition around the
same time when they began
clearing out native centers of re
sistance in the Rue Paul Blanchy
district.
Fog Dispeller For
Air Fields Costly
Areata Use Proves
Eureka, Cal., Oct. 3 (U.R)
The development of "fido" fog
intensive, disposal of at Areata
naval air station was revealed by
the navy today after being kept
a war secret for the past year
and a half.
Developed to make a "hole in
the fog" for landing planes, the
navy's mark 5 fog dispersal units
operate by running gas through
a dozen two inch pipes along the
edge of the landing field. Burn
ing gas in a lower pipe heats the
gas in the pipes above, condens
ing it to a vapor, which, when
ignited gives off intense heat that
eliminates the fog hazard.
This method, known as the
thermo (heat) method has proved
invaluable to Britain's RAF, but
is fabulously expensive with
costs coming to between $4,000
and $5,000 to land one plane.
Jimmy Stewart To
Resume Film Work
And Remain Single
Hollywood, Oct. 3 (U.R) Col.
Jimmy Stewart came home from j
the war today and said he j
wanted to forget about "all this j
hero stuff" as soon as possible
and get back to making a living
as a movie actor.
The gangling screen actor, !
who sneaked off the train at
Pasadena to avoid the Union
station crowds, said the one other
thing he was sure about was
that he planned to remain a
bachelor. I
"All I want to do now is get
back to work," said the slow-
talking star, who took a $1 4j5 1
weekly pay cut to join the army j
as a buck private right after he j
won an academy "oscar." '

Ultra Short-Wave
For Long Distance
San Francisco, Oct. 3 (U.R)
The army today let the public
in on another of its "secret wea
pons" a highly-mobile ultra
short-wave directional radio
transmitter which in peacetime
may eliminate the need for long
distance telephone wires.
During the war more than 10,
000 of the transmitters named
AN TRC for army navy trans
portable radio communications
weighing less than 300 pounds
and capable of keeping up with
the fastest moving motorized
troops, helped speed American
invasion forces in Africa, Europe
and the Pacific.
Modol In Japan
The army now plans to use
an improved model in the occu
pation of Japan, meanwhile car
rying out a series of tests to de
termine maximum effective
range of the radio phone and
iron out remaining bugs.
