VTXP your eye on this situation There will be some hot fight ing before Rommel either effects a junction with the axis forces in Tunisia or is PREVENTED from doing so. IJDR today lays before congress a HUNDRED BILLION DOL LAR budget for war purposes next year and at the same time asks for 16 billions in ADDI TIONAL . taxes or . compulsory savings. That dwarfs anything in his tory, so there's nothing to com pare it with. .. j Don't try to make comparisons. Just grit your teeth and tighten your belt. It HAS TO BE DONE. TN his message, FDR points out that this represents three times the German, four times the Brit ish and 14 times the Jap spend ing. Don't try to make dollar com parisons. They're useless and misleading. The Germans and the Japs are GETTING MORE FOR WHAT THEY SPEND. What it amounts to is putting the bulk of our production effort into war, and as such it s OK. There's nothing to be gained by fighting with one hand. We'd better fight with BOTH hands and get it over with. - - TN his budget message, FDR says: "Victory can't be bought with ANY AMOUNT of money, how ever large. Victory is achieved by the blood of soldiers, the sweat of workers, both men and women, and' the sacrifices of all the people." True every word of it. Still, we mustn't forget to in clude the COST OF CIVIL GOV ERNMENT among the things where sacrifice is called for. Every dollar spent for NON-WAR governmental activities is WASTE, and as such hampers our war effort.

Phillip George Cochrarf of k.Yie, Pa, who tlew his P-40 Warhawk fighter over the Moslem city of Kairouan in the central luni sian battlezone and dropped the only bomb he was carrying squarely on a German headquar ters there. The headquarters, ha reported, was destroyed. ri-26 Martin Marauders, es corted by P-38 Lockheed Light nings, swept into Libya from the west for the first time Sat urday night, smashing hangars at an airarome 10 miles west of Tripoli. That same night allied planes from the east swept over the same coastal region, bomb ing the road from Tripoli to the Tunisian frontier. The port of Tunis and axis air bases on Sic ily were attacked yesterday. Rommel Falls Back Big British bombers, perhaps 140 to 150 strong, set off fires visible 100 miles in a hard new raid Saturday night on Essen, home of the giant Krupp arma ment works. It was the fifth raid on the industrial Ruhr region in seven nights. The one-two aerial - blows along the coastal section be tween Tripoli and the Tunisian border underscored reports that Field Marshal Rommel's forces once more were , withdrawing toward Tunisia. (Continued From Page One) the CIO. The CIO claims the Kaisers entered a closed-shop agreement with the AFL before representative crews were hired at the shipyards and without certification elections. The injunction plea is based on complaints of Edgar F. Kai ser, president manager of the shipyards here, and Harry F, Morton of Oakland, Calif., Kai ser company vice president and head of the company's legal de partment Hear Evidence The Kaisers sought some time ago to have Millis and Reilly disquUified on the grounds of bias and prejudice but the labor board in a decision January 5 refused to disqualify them, - Morton again this mori-ing asked that the two labor board members and the trial examiner, whose identity was not dis closed until shortly before the hearing opened, be disqualified. Denham ruled it was not within his jurisd'.tion to disqualify them but offered to hear evi dence against himself. Naming of Flynr Termed "Insult To Australia" (Continued From Page One) "wanting to get rid of him (Flynn)," adding that it was "an interesting coincidence that this particular moment paving block Flynn should be seeking diplo matic immunity." "It is a disgraceful state of affairs," Bridges declared, "when it becomes necessary to subpoena the chairman of a ma jor political party before a grand jury in connection with a criminal offense." Bridges allud ed to a Bronx grand jury inves tigation of charges that a court yard at Flynn's estate had been paved with New York City ma terials and labor. The Jury exon erated Flynn of any wrongdoing in this connection. Despite the republican opposi tion, democratic leaders said they were certain Flynn would be confirmed as minister to Aus tralia and roving ambassador for the president. Hans Norland, Insurance.

OREGON Senate Gets Brown, Flynn, Rutledge Nominations Today (Continued From Page One) area. He has called a meeting of the democratic national com mittee for next Monday to act on his resignation and choose a successor Postmaster General Walker, who previously was na tional chairman, is expected by some persons to get the Job. Immediate favorable reaction indicated the senate would give speedy approval to the appoint ment of Judge Rutledge. The president's selection of Brown appeared likely to be ap proved also, although farm bloc members said Brown might be questioned about his views on agricultural price ceilings. Senator Moore, new republican senator from Oklahoma, has an nounced he would fight against confirmation of Josh Lee, his de feated democratic opponent, to the civil aeronautics board. The White House disclosed that Mr. Roosevelt had sent Flynn a letter Friday informing him of his plan to nominate him as min ister and ot his appointment as a sort of roving ambassador. The letter, addressed to "Dear Eddie," follows: "I am sending your nomination to the senate on Monday as min ister to Australia. "In addition, I am appointing you my personal representative with the rank of ambassador. I do so because in the very large area of the southwest Pacific, I want to feel free to avail myself of your services in various other forms of activity, over and above your duties as minister. "For example. Honorable Pat rick J. Hurley, in addition to be ing minister to New Zealand, is a general in the army, and I have used his services in many differ ent places outside of New Zea land proper and in ways and for purposes which do not fall di rectly under his ministerial ca pacity." 19,000 STRIKING MNERSSTILL OUT (Continued From Page One) again at three collieries of the Lehigh Valley Coal company. Dues Cause Strike Decision by the six collieries to go back to work was reached at , weekend meetings called alter Tckes denounced the strike as "intolerable" and Lieut. Col. Charles W. Kerwood of the war department urged the men to return to the mines for one week pending settlement of their grievances. Chief of these is a dues in crease of 50 cents a month, voted at the United Mine Wom en convention at Cincinnati last October. The strikers contend they were not properly repre sented at the convention and want the increase rescinded. They also want a $2-a-day wage increase. No Action Presence o pickets kept op erations from being resumed at a seventh colliery the Huber of the Glen Alden company where workers also had voted for the back-to-work move. There was no disorder, however. In Washington, spokesmen for the war labor board, the war department and Solid Fuels Co ordinator Harold L. Ickes said they Isnew of no move to take over the mines. 3 Ooart 0pn 1: ind 1:11 RIGHT NOWI ...roaring across the screen in the most rousing ro mance a master story-teller has ever written I MUD CRE6AR THOMAS MITCHELL GEORGE SANDERS ANTHONY OUINH Extra) PLUTO CARTOON ."Spirit of West Point" Novelty - News METED ONE-YEAR TERM SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 11 W D.

Total War "Some persons may believe that such a program Is fantas tic," commented the commander- in-chief. "If the nation's man power and resources are fully harnessed. I am confident that the objective of this program can be reoched, but it requires a complete recognition of the necessities of total war by all manngement, labor, farmers, consumers, and public servants regardless of party." He did not translate his finan cial estimates Into planes and tanks and ships to do so, he said, would merely help the enemy.

To farmers he assigned the task of feeding the United Na tions, for "food is a primary weapon of war," and he budget ed $837,000,000 for federal farm aids calculated, among other things, to divert agricultural acrj from luxury foods to nu trition essentials.

Highlights from President Roosevelt's budget message to congress: I am transmitting herewith war budget exceeding 100 blu lion of dollars for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1043, This budget presents the mnxl. mum program for waging war. Total war is grim reality, it means t h dedication ol our lives and resources to a slngl objective: Victory. In liilitl war wa are all sol (tiers, wneiner in umiurin, ove alls or shirt sleevrs. Monthly expenditures for war purposes amounted to $2,ouo, 000,000 Just before Pearl bor;. they now exceed $0,(M, 000.000 and they wilt average more than $8,000,000,000 a month during the fiscal ' year 1844. Victory cannot be bought by any amount of money, however lorgc: victory Is achieved by the blood of soldiers, the sweat of working men and women, and the sacrifice of all people. At a time when wages isnd nlnriri ara stabllited. the ru. ceipt of very largo incomta from any source constitutes a gross Inequity undermining no tional unity. Freedom from want for erybody. everywhere, Is no longer a Utopian dream. It. can be translated Into action wnn Ihe fear ot aggression has been removed by victory. The soldiers of Ihe flghUag forces and the workmen tUt gnsed in military production want to be assured that they will return to a life of oppor ttinlty and security In a society oi free men. Toxes probably will never revert to their pre-war level. But substantial reduction trom the war level will, nevertheless be possible.
