is that the members of the court

choice from the opposite party.
The law puts the responsibility
on the county court, the only

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

that Gen. 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.

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."

of a fight.
This suggests that the British

than has been Indicated.
THERE'S a new development at

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
