1 PAGE TWO ROTARIANS TO RUN JANUARY BOND WIN The Klamath Falls Rotary club will take over the war sav ings campaign in Klamath coun ty in January, it was announced today by Andrew M. Collier, war savings chairman. He said the club will provide the push for a $249,000 quota. President DeLos Mills has ap pointed past presidents of the club as committee in charge, witli Mitchell Tillotson as chair man. Cooperation Asked "We are determined that Klamath county shall make its quota every month this year, and January must start it all off right," said Collier. "We believe the Rotary club will give us mark to shoot at." Tillotson said that the club is asking the entire community to get behind the drive, and in many ways will call war sav fngs to the attention of the pub- 11 bub-committees will be In . charge of rural subscriptions, payroll deductions, lumber and industrial organizations, busi ', ness houses, with a special wom en's section now being organized by Dr. J. M. Hilton. .-. Fines Assessed As a part of the program, the club hopes- to have a "victory ' center" devoted to the part the pine industries are playing in the war. effort. The. Western Pine association is cooperating in pre- paring this program, as well as ' members of the armed forces. The plan is to honor workers in i the pine industry.

Ai(, Montgomery and Robert , ' Graham.- 1 ' - V ' The decision rests with the members of the court, and the committee action constitutes only an endorsement. Craver is a Southern Pacific yardman who has served as leg islative representative of the Brotherhood of Railroad Train men. He has lived here since 1926 and is a member of all the Masonic bodies. He is mar ried and is the father of one girl, Sharon, a high school stu dent. Interesting angle on the case is that the members of the court re all republicans, but are re quired by the law to make the choice from the opposite party. The law puts the responsibility on the county court, the only requirement, being that the per son filling the vacancy must . have been for five years a mem ber of the same political party as that of the person who vacat ed the office.

PORTLAND Market un changed. FBI Smashes "Terrible Touhy" Gang in Chicago (Continued From Page One) flashed on and the G-men called to Touhy, Banghart and Darlak: "Come out through the front door. Come out backwards and with your hands up. Banghart, you come first. For ten minutes, the agents, fingers on triggers, waited for a response. Then the door opened and Banghart, hands overhead, back ed cautiously through the door. Agents reached out from, their apartment door facing that of the gangsters, grabbed him and wheeled him into their apart ment where he was manacled. Next they called for Touhy to come out, and then Darlak. All surrendered without a struggle. Touhy wore brilliant red pa jamas and his black hair had ben . turned blond with per oxide. A bottle of peroxide was found in the" flat. The FBI had taken an apart ment directly across the hall from the gang's in the six-flat building. In it they stored an arsenal of tear gas, machine guns ana high powered rifles. In addition, they moved fam ilies from the second floor to the third so that they could be evacuated through a skylight in the- event it was necessary to Desiege the criminals with tear gas bombs to drive them out. O'Connor and Mclnerny were slain last night when they open ed fire on FBI agents who sur rounded their hideout in the Norwood apartments on Leland avenue. The FBI men ordered them to surrender peaceably. They an swered by opening fire. G-men's bullets brought them down. Hoover said two apartments used by the gang contained five revolvers, two sawedoff shot guns and one 30-30. rifle.. All were loaded and extra rounds of ammunition were uncovered. In the hunt so far. Hoover re lated, the federal agents have found $13,533.27 of money hid den by the gang in various places. Several automobiles were found.

Wavell had launched a major campaign to recapture Burma, but the swift retire ment of Japanese troops at Rathcdaung suggested that the British might be inconsiderable force. On the New Guinea front, Gen. Douglas MacArthur's head quarters announced that allied troops had deepened their wedge into Japanese lines in the Buna zone, with American and Australian jungle fighters beating off a desperate new enemy attempt to smash out of its trap. After crushing the Japanese counterattack, allied troops lunged farther into the enemy's intricate system of fortifications along the dwinding beach cor ridor. Rabaul Raid Gen. MacArthur said Jap anese warcraft probably sud marines shelled allied .lines at Buna village for five hours yes terday, starting at midnight, but caused no damage. Allied airmen flying heavy B-24 Liberator bombers were credited with scoring three di rect 500-pound bomb hits on a big Japanese cruiser off Rabaul, New Britain, leaving the war ship in flames and probably destroyed. Other allied fliers bombed the Gasmata airdrome in New Britain and carried out wide spread attacks from Timor to Dutch New Guinea. Knox Reveals Damage to Ship Early in War (Continued From Page One) sponse to other questions, that the navy did not plan to re lease its enlisted men over 38 as the army intends to do when possible in the cases of men who were drafted. He explain ed that such a policy would not apply to the navy because the navy has not heretofore taken men through selective service and therefore would not be af fected by the recently an nounced selective service policy against drafting men over that age. c Knox said that navy casualty lists, heretofore released only for publication in local news paper circulation territories, would hereafter be made avail able for publication on a nation wide basis. The army also will follow the same policy here after. Food Cost Boost Reflected at Garbage Dumps PORTLAND, Dec. 29 (Pi Food cost increases are reflected at the city garbage dump, Super intendent William G. Helber said today. The "higher class" garbage has disappeared. Gone are the outer leaves of lettuce and cabbage. "I guess they eat them from the outside layer in," opined Helber. Bones and meat scraps are things of the past "the only meat scraps that get to the dump now are fishing leavings from the butcher shops." Buy it through a want ad.

The Japs are reported re tiring without putting up much of a fight. This suggests that the British may be advancing in more force than has been Indicated. THERE'S a new development at El., MB Jap warcraft, probably sub marines, shelled our positions for five hours night before last and under this covering fire the Japs on the beach launched on attack, which was stopped. Our men then smashed forward in a counter-attack, still further nar rowing the Japs' beach positions. The nature of the fighting there can be understood from the announcement as a GAIN by our side of the wiping out of a few Jap snipers and a Jap listening post. It's down to the hand-to-hand, man-to-man stage. TN Tunisia, sharp clashes by allied patrols probing axis positions and continued assaults by our planes arc reported. These arc the usual preliminaries to something bigger. Torrential rains of the past few days are reported to be easing off into showers. There's nothing new from Rommel.T .
