f AGE TWO ALLIES TAKE (Continued from Page One) Ing progress" (or the first time since the Invaders landed at Gona mission July 21 and began pushing through the heavy, croc odile-infested jungles toward Port Moresby, which, it cap tured, could serve as a spring' board for an assault on Austral' ia. . Blow Struck Meanwhile, allied air forces continued savage pounding of the Japanese bases and supply lines in New Guinea. These per sistent attacks, an army spokes- ;. man observed, may have stop ped the Invaders' progress by smashing vital supply lines. The greatest blow to tho'Nip ponese air forces during the ac tivity commencing September 25, was struck in the Solomons where 42 planes were shot down and three others damaged, the navy department said. Navy and marine corps fighters bombed four ships, setting a cruiser afire and probably sinking a transport and ruined Japanese gun re placements. 23 Planes Destroyed Without loss of a single U. S. plane, the American forces bombed a Japanese cruiser and a seaplane tender, and' shot down three seaplanes at Tonolel Harbor on September 25; de stroyed six more enemy sea planes, damaged a seventh, hit a cruiser and probably sank a transport near Shortland island on September 26. The follow ing day they blasted four bom bers and five fighter planes of an attacking Japanese squadron over Guadalcanal. Continuing their attacks yes terday, the American air forces successfully intercepted 25 Japa nese bombers which were ac companied by 18 Zero fighters and were headed for marine in stallations on Guadalcanal. The navy and marine fighter planes destroyed 23 of the enemy bom bers and one Zero and forced 'the others to jettison their bombs into the sea. The marines meanwhile strengthened their hold on Guad alcanal by destroying several small enemy detachments still on the Island with the aid of five bombers. ' .

CURRIN'S FOR DRUGS Th th and Main Sales "Freeze" Ordered on Rubber Boors, Shoes '.VAEKINGTON, Sept. 3 (IP) The government undertook its first venture toward clothing ra tioning today, ordering a sales freeze on rubber boots and rub ber work shoes effective at mid night and lasting until October 5, i Hn g "certificate rationing" program is to be launched. By order of the office of price administration, the industrial footwear will be sold only to men working on jobs essential to the prosecution of the war or to public health and safety. Ordinary rubbers, arctics, gaiters, and womens and chil dren's rubber boots will not be rationed and are not covered in the freeze, because they are made mostly from reclaimed rubber. (Continued from Page One) in the Philippines, he repeated his assertion. "But with a couple of dozen aircraft carriers and supporting task force units," Thach con tinued, "and with enough ma rines to carry out landings, I'm convinced we can cut a path across the Pacific and cut it quickly right to Japan. And, we can make it stick." Thach, who fought in the bat tle of Midway, told a press con ference at the navy department that carrier based dive bomb ers 'and torpedo planes, with carrier based fighter protection, had dealt the decisive blows which routed the enemy and produced America's foremost victory of the war. Proof At Midway Army Flying Fortresses, famed for their high altitude horizontal bombing, both over the Pacific war zone and over Europe, participated in that fight and Thach was asked whether he was saying in effect that the part played by the big bombers there was "insignifi cant." "You heard my story," he replied. At another point he summed up: "The story of Midway shows that horizontal bombers cannot stop ships, high speed maneu vering ships. Not one major ship in this war has been sunk by horizontal bombing." Churchill Raps Second Front Speculations . (Continued from Page One) tern ' of previous BBC broad casts to France. It told the French that there would be no advance warning of the day or point of atUck but that "the of fensive of the allied nations is in the making." MacDonald was anxious lest someone with inside informa tion indiscreetly tip off the enemy with too free talk. In response to the member's re quest for a word of caution, Churchill said: "I welcome this opportunity of again emphasizing the unde sirability of public statements or speculation as to the time and place of future allied of fensive operations even though such statements are based on inference and not, as the sug gestion seems to imply, on in side Information." The house's applause was punctuated by the remark which Churchill did not answer "Will th ' be conveyed to Mr. Wendell Willkle?" Willkle, speaking In Moscow Sunday, urged a second front "at the earliest possible moment which our military leaders will approve." rtUMlT Drug Store" phone 4514 SENATE STARTS WORK TO REX E (Continued from Page One) purpose the country is trying to serve today. Tho controversy of which Nye spoke was whether the an' ti-inflation bill, in its section covering farm products should redefine parity levels to includo the cost of farm labor. Want Predicted Nye and others from farm states fought a vigorous battle to have such costs included. while the administration forces contended this provision in it self would be highly inflation ary. ' Nye argued that if congress or the administration should break down farm prices the country could look forward to "hours, days and months of dire want for the barest food re quirements, even for the armed forces." The state supreme court on Tuesday denied a petition for a re-hearing in the case of E. J. Murray versus Wilson Wiley and others. This case. Involving the Mur ray building on Main between Eighth and Ninth streets, was decided in the supreme court a few months ago in favor of Mur ray. The court reversed Circuit Judge Arthur D. Hay, who had .found for the defendants. Under the supreme court deci sion, Murray regains ownership of the building, with an account ing required and payment by Murray of certain sums to a group of local men who had ob tained title to the building from the Conger corporation. Farm Worker Held in Brutal Colfax Killing (Continued From Page One) when he Illegally killed two deer and was smeared in han dling the animals. Chemical experts of the state bureau of criminal identifica tion were analyzing water in which the bloody shirt was found soaking, to determine whether the blood was of hu man or animal origin. Mrs. Turner's blood spattered body, stripped of clothing ex cept for shoes and stockings, was found in the basement of her Colfax home by a neighbor. The body had been beaten and slashed, the jugular vein cut and the jaw broken. Officers said no attempt at rape had been made. Silva said Brown had admit ted visiting Mrs. Turner's house about 1 p. m. Sunday and talk ing briefly with Mrs. Turner. The slain woman was the widow of the late R. L.

ACT HELD LIKELY (Continued from Page One) terms "labor draft" and "labor conscription." Testifying before the commit tee, he said: 'Persuasion is not enough and there's not sufficient patri otic urge. I hope in the very near future that certain recom mendations will be made. It's not an easy task. We've never had such legislation. Certain constitutional questions are in volved . . . The job ahead is a question of putting every man and woman in the place where they could contribute most to a speedy victory." He stressed that England passed such an act virtually at the outset of the war, and he expressed the opinion that com pulsion would have to be used with very few persons in this country, that the mere exist ence of the law would go a long way toward correcting con ditions.

Both Americans and Cana dians, who have been itching for action during months of patrol and guard work over Alaskan posts, took part in the raid. Lieut. Gerald R. Johnson of Eugene, Ore., got another fight- I er, shooting it down- just as it came out of the clouds on the tail of the plane piloted by Mil ler. Squadron Commander Ken neth Boomer of Ottawa, leader of the Canadians, sent a third fighter spinning into the bay. In addition the raiding force struck at seaplanes on the water. Air force reports said at least five and possibly more were de stroyed. , Shore installations were also hit, with fighter planes going in low ahead of the bombers and strafing positions violently. Friday's rld began during the first week of September when fighters first strafed the as tounded Japanese occupants of the island. The first large scale raid was 1-1 T AW I - I a Flying Tiger ! made September 14 when It was estimated at least BOO Japs were killed. Preceding the heavier attack Friday, a smaller raid was made on KLska Thursday, but the re sults were not known.
