Sweeney, who fixed tail at $50,000, supplanting the lme amount set yesterday when Kunze was arraigned on a war rant charging the violations. Nominally defunct since the outbreak of the war between the United States and Germany, the bund was charged in the Indict ments with continuing certain acts which Correa said con firmed a belief that the bund was operating with underground tactics. Correa said that numerous singing societies in the Yorkville section of New York and else where had taken over bund ac tivities and continued to foster naii beliefs. He said these would be the subject of further inves tigation. 1 Militant Organisation ' Correa said that under the cioak of the name "militant or ganization of free Americans," the bund organization sought to further the political and propa ganda aims of the German reich. . The indictments strike at lead ers in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Minne sota, Indiana, Washington state and California. One indictment alleged that on Oct. 1, 1940, a command was issued over the name of Kunze to all bundists which technically urged compliance with the selec tive service act but added: "We represent the standpoint, however, that an induction in the military service is not justi fied as far as it concerns bund members:' and American Ger ' mans, for in the selective service : law the citizenship rights of bund members and the defend '. era of Germandom are unconsti tutionally severed, ; j. "livery man, if he can, will re fuse to do military duty until this law and all other laws of the country and of the states which confine the citizenship rights of bund members are revoked." Correa declined . to say how many bundists inducted into the. army had followed the com mand, but did say that army of ficials had arrested a number of men who said they would not fight against the German father. land.

This may be the start of northern pincers movement against Moscow, synchronized with the southern sweep through Voronezh, some SOU miles below the soviet capital. The terrific harvest of Casual ties was reflected in Russian dis- patches declaring that six trains totalling 247 cars, jammed with nazl wounded, had been seen moving to the rear. Westward Trend While the Russians battled desperately to stem the gravest threat of the year. Gen. Sir Claude Auchinleck's British im perial armies sought to develop a westward trend In the 14-day old battle of Egypt. A steady stream of troops, tanks and guns was reported moving up to the front, in the El Alamein sector 65 miles west of Alexandria, and dispatches said it was believed that a token force of American tank soldiers was fighting alongside the Brit ish. The American tankists, it was disclosed, had already met and defeated a German panzer force in a baptismal skirmish In the Libyan desert June 12, knocking out at least nine German tanks without suffering any casualties themselves. Dispatches from Cairo said the Americans, who escaped from Tobruk before the Germans cap tured that British stronghold. were originally scheduled to re turn to the United States to ap ply lessons experienced in the desert, but because of the Ger man drive into Egypt they were ordered to remain with the Brit' lsh. Aerial dogfights and heavy artillery battles marked the criti cal struggle on the Mediterran ean coastal mesa yesterday. It was reported, with big guns rumbling constantly throughout the day and night. SPAATZ TO HEAD (Continued from Page One) ated planes missing from the July 4 raid were: Sergeant James W.

FDR Says Tires May Have to Be Commandeered (Continued From Page One) rubber problem could be solved without gasoline rationing throughout the country. But he remarked that if he lived next to an oil well, and had new tires and some spares, he did not see why he should not use his car for necessary business purposes. To a question as to wnetner he thought the use of cars for business purposes could be had without gasoline rationing, the chief executive said that depend ed on how long tires would lat. It was at that point that he went on to assert that all auto mobile tires might have to be taken over. Big Sugar Users Urged to Register Institutional and Industrial sugar users were warned today they must register at once for their July and August allot ments, the Klamath county war price and rationing board said. The office said a notice from the state rationing administra tor urged that registration be completed as soon as possible, The local ration board office, at 323 Main street, will be open week days from 9:30 a. m. to 4:30 p. m., and from 9:30 a. m. to noon on Saturday.

Compromise Plan Proposed for rood Handlers' Exams (Continued From Page One) would pay only for the examina tion of steady employes. School Teachers Pay He pointed out, also, that school teachers and beauticians pay for their own examinations in order to handle their jobs under the law. "By making tho maximum cost of the examination $3, we gave the employes special pro tection, he said. As a matter of fact, the personal value of an examination every six months Is easily worth tho $3." Dr. Mnssny stated Hint sani tary Inspections of local restau rants show a number of such places where conditions are un satisfactory. He indicated that examination of the people handling the food and dishes in restaurants would improve this situation. City councllmen recently torn-- porarily shelved tho foodhand- lcrs ordinance after union objec tions to employes paying the fees, and employer objections to paying tho fee for workers. . Action Asked Monday night, Mayor John Houston told the council It should cither shelve the ordl-' nanco permanently or do some thing about it. Finally, after periods of sllenco in which nono of the councllmen offered any addi tional comment, Mnyor Houston referred tho question to the health committee, which Is headed by Councilman A. H. Bu.ismon. Councilman Cantrnll said he was Vnfrald that, ns things stand now, we will not get tho right kind of cooperation to make the ordlnanco work, evmi if we adopt It" MARCH FIELD, Calif., July 7 OP) Discovery Sunday of the bodies of Maj,,Gcn, Herbert A.
