way, Resistance Stiffens
, On the eve of the sixth year
since the bloody "China inci
dent" broke out July 7, 1937,
Qen. Chiang's armies appeared
to ba stiffening against the In
vaders, encouraged anew by
Prime Minister Churchill's
promise that Britain would give
China "every material, moral
nd spiritual help" possible.
- Meanwhile the situation in
India, threatened by Japanese
Invasion from next door Burma,
appeared to be improving as
Mohandas K. Gandhi, the pow
erful little nationalist leader,
declared that "India is as much
interested as her allies in ward
ing off attack."
' ' Gandhi had previously urged
India's 390,000,000 to follow
Us policy of "passive resistance"
toward any Japanese invasion.
' Now, somewhat changing his
oosition. Gandhi urged that
United Nations troops be al
lowed to remain to defend In
dia but only under a treaty
with a free India and at the ex
pense of the United Nations.

ji, "That's very unfair state
ment," the production chief re
torted. : ."Why? inquired Norrls.
" "Because we are doing some
thing about It and when I ap
pear before the committee again
I will make a statement about
that situation," Nelson declared.
Nelson said that a program
had been approved requiring
production of 700,000 tons of
synthetic rubber, which he be
i -Moved sufficient to cover essen
tial needs.
- "But this bill," he protested,
"goes far beyond that You may
provide for production of much
more rubber by use of critical
materials needed in the war ef
fort and for non-essential driv
ing, if you please.
.'"We believe that production
of more than 800,000 tons of
synthetic rubber, for instance.

and pointing out further that
submarine warfare and the need
for ships to carry war materials
mean that imports of sugar will

Military experts predicted the
Germans would create a major
diversion on the northeast shore
of the Black sea, employing nazl
troops from the Kerch peninsula.
This drive probably would be
aimed at Rostov, gateway to tho

Railway Is Qoil
The tactical objective of the
Ukraine offensive is to sever tho
Moscow Voconczh-Rostov rail
way, the last remaining lateral
communication from Moscow to
Marshal Scmeon Tlmoshenko's
army group in the south. The
Vichy radio, frequently an ave
nue for German prooaganda
said today the line already had
Dcen cut.
Guderian's headlong assault
spearheaded by the relatively
small force of three armored,
two motorized and five veteran
Infantry divisions already has
forced the Russians back on the
Voronezh region. .

treasury department, he said, Is
working out measures for rigid
enforcement.
Advice also has been received
from the offlco of prlco adminis
tration that, In the issuance and
use of gasoline rationing books,
im linpnrtiiut identification will
be tho serial number printed on
the motor vehicle use tax stamp.
In those areas where gasoline Is
being rationed and In those ar
eas where gasoline will he ra
tioned, possession of the tax
stamp evldunclng payment of the
use tax on motor vehicles will
provldo one of tho necessary
means of Identifying the gasoline
rationing coupon book with the
vehicle In tho securing of gaso
line. To guard against loss or theft,
it has been lUKgcsted that, when
affixing the stamps, the vehicle
owner should dampen the wind
shield rather than the adhesive
side of the stamp. Another ef
fective mothod Is to brush clear
varnish over tho stamp after It
has been afflxod.
As an additional precaution, It
Is suggested that each motor ve
hicle owner should make a rec
ord of the sorlal number which
appears on the use tax stamp In
order that there may be some
means of Identification In con
nection with gasoline rationing
In the event the stamp should
become lost.
