The OCD chief completed a

he thought great progress had
been made in organization along

remained to be done.
The present voluntary agree

plained by saying the Pacific
coast "became a priority A-l-A
area on December 7 and noth
ing has happened to change my
opinion. There has been no
change In the situation to Indi
cate the Pacific reposea In more
safety."
He asked for strict enforce
ment of dim-out rules, saying
that many inland cities In Cali
fornia are Ignoring OCD regula
tions. The full authority grant
ed the president will be used If
voluntary cooperation falls to
materialize, he added.

JAPS CLAIM 11
FORCE IN ATLANTIC
(Continued from Pge One)
Japanese surface raider or
heavy naval unit might follow
the lone lubmarln wa "fool
ish." These quarters said .that th
Japanese navy already had it
hand full In the Pacific, and that
the North and South Atlantio
were too well guarded by Allied
navle for Japanese surface
flotilla to enter those water un
detected. Propaganda Value
British Informant said It
would not be difficult for Japan
to send a submarine Into the At
lantic, perhaps using Vichy
French Madagascar Island a a
refuelling base, but declared:
"If a 10,000-mile trip like that
were carried out. It wa un
doubtedly done just for It pro
paganda value."
"8trttflio Operation"
Other observer pointed out
that If Japan actually had sent
Important naval force Into the
Atlantic, (he would be unlikely
to destroy their 'surprise value
by advertising the fact.
The Tokyo communique aald:
"Part of the Japanese naval
forces ha advanced to the At
lantic and ft now engaged in
trateglc operation in close co
operation with the ixi navies.
"One Japanese submarine
operating In the Atlantic recent
ly called at a certain German
naval base and again set sail for
strategic waters.
Madagascar Overrun
Meanwhile, British troops
were overrunning French Mada
gascar to eliminate that 1,000-
mile island, lying off the coast
of aoutheast Africa, as a bat
for axis undersea raider prey
ing on the vital Allied supply
lines to India, China, Russia
and the Middle East.
In London, the foreign office
announced that following tha
capture of Tananarive, the capi
tal, British force had placed
Madagascar under military rul
"to Insur law and order . . .
pending establishment of '
friendly regime,"
The Vichy French flag will
continue to fly over the island,
it was announced, and the sov
ereignty of Franc remain un
affected. Milk Control Board

Isn t done.
Substitute Proposal
Democratic Leader Barkley
(Kentucky) said today that an cf
fort to compromise the fight over
farm parity prices In the admin'
Istratlon' antl-lnflatlon bill rep
Idly wa gaining support in th
senate.
Talking to .reporter at the
(tart of th fifth day of debate,
Barkley said that "many sens
tor" who previously had been
backing an imandmtnt by Sen
tor Thorn (D-Okli.) and Hatch
(D-N. M.) to revise th basil of
parity upward -had informed
him they would vote for a tub
tltut proposal directing Pre.il
dent Roosevelt to lift farm price
ceiling where they did not re
flect to producer th Increased
costa of labor and other Items.
Th latter amendment would
avoid any change In the method
of computing parity. President
Roosevelt has said that he was
"unalterably opposed" to chang
ing thla standard. '
There were reports that, In or
der to avoid prior vote on the
Thomas-Hatch proposal, the ad
ministration leadership might
move during the day to send the
bill back to the banking com
mittee for speedy redrafting to
include the compromise provi
sion.
Barkley said there was little
chance of any decision by the
"Senate today on any of the ma
jor points in the bill, indicating
that show-down might be
postponed until Monday.
Till probably would delay fi
nal enactment of the .bill until
after the October 1 deadline set
by President Roosevelt In his
message to congress on Septem
ber 7 asking for authority to cut
farm price ceilings back from
110 per' cent of parity to 100 ner
cent and saying that unless con
gress acted, he would.
Administration senators decid
ed to ask Leon Henderson, the
price administrator, to outline
actions he would take if the com
promise were finally accepted
by both house and senate. The
house already had defeated the
administration by voting to re
vise the parity formula upward
and thereby lift farm ceiling
prices.
