No Death Count There was no accurate count of the cost of life since Sunday when India aspirations for in- dependence suddenly erupted into a bloody struggle of grow ing Intensity but the casualty lists in Bombay alone reached at least 31 dead and more than 250 wounded. Lata today troops opened fire one more on an unruly crowd which had stoned a military truck in the Bhuleswar area of Bombay, adding an indefinite number to Bombay' casualty roll. following this police owned fire over the heads of a mob which attempted to destroy a sentry box in the Zazeri bazaar. No one was injured. Meanwhile, the death of 12 persons, including a police in spector, and the wounding of many, were announced at New Delhi evidently a cumulative total for disorders in that capi tal. Since the terror began as the sequel to the arrest of Mohandas K. Gandhi and other Hindu leaders after the All-India con gress party made him general issimo of a planned non-violent campaign to break British rule, 500 or more other Indians have been made prisoners.

Blast Against Japs in Pacific Advance in Food Prices Slated For September (Continued from Page One) more than 5000 items in the aver age store. ' The overall increase, .the in dustry claimed, would not ex ceed one and a half ner cent, Dr. J. K. Galbraith, deputy OPA administrator, predicted the ad vance on individual items would be "relatively small." OPA explained that designa tion of March as the ceiling price month caught food distributors with many selling prices based on prices on stock purchased months before. With replace ment costs increased, distribu tors could not re-stock except at the risk of cash losses. Consequently, both low-priced wholesale and retail distributors would be compelled to drop im portant lines of food products unless the "squeeze" were re lieved, OPA said. Japs Caught by Surprise in New Raid on Kiska (Continued from Page One) said the navy, "is believed to have been sunk" during the bom bardment.

All the actions reported by the navy were in the Kiska area ex cept for a Japanese aircraft at tack August 3 on the U. S. De stroyer Kane off Atka island about 350 miles east of Kiska. The destroyer was unharmed. Kiska is the Jap's main base al though the navy has reported weir occupation of Attu and Agattu, at the tip of the island chain. The navy reported that Kiska was bombed once July 22 and twice July 29 in addition to the other actions reported, and on Aug. 4 army pursuit planes shot down two Kawamshi seaplane bombers in an action no details of which were given COOK YOUR OWN SALEM, Aug. 12 (JP Salem restaurant operators began to day asking their women custom ers to volunteer as waitresses and cooks during rush hours.

Drum, com manding general of the eastern defense command, said today that alleged "air marker" inci. dents, described in a recent re lease by the first air force at Mitchell Field, N. Y., were with out "hostile motive." "As a result," Gen. Drum add ed in a formal statement, "the cases were dropped as having no bearing on national defense. "The responsibility and the reasons for the release of the photographs and the story are now under investigation and ap propriate action will be taken in due time." The Mitchell Field story and photographs had to do with sacks of grain stacked in a field in the form of a figure nine with the tail of the figure reportedly pointing to an aircraft plant, and piowed fields or woodland clear ings shaped like arrows pointing to defense plants and air fields. The material was released to newspapers of last Monday morning. "Following normal intelli gence procedure, investigations were made with the conclusions that no hostile motive Could be attached to any one of the inci dents in question."
