LeClcrc mid his forces were in firm contact with the onrushing 8th army, "brilliantly taking part with their British allies in the advance on Trip oli," thus effectively sealing the arc which the allies have thrown around the last axis foothold in North Africa. Liaison had previously been established between LeClerc's columns and American-British-French forces on the western flank in Tunisia. Multiple signs indicated that Rommel might abandon Tripoli without a fight in his urgency to reach Tunisia: The Berlin radio reported that the city was blaze and- 'under incessant Hied, bombing attack, - Nasi Gain Moreover, violent fighting in asntral Tunisia, 'where strongly reinforced German " troops smashed at French positions southwest of Pont du Fahs, suggested an effort to clear the way for Rommel's weary forces en route to the Tunis-Bizerte tone in northern Tunisia.

Chairman Con- nally of the senate foreign rela tions committee (D-Tex.) ' an nounced that Josephus Daniels, former ambassador to Mexico and one-time secretary of the navy, had endorsed Edward J, Flynn for the post as minister to Australia. During a one-day lull on the hearing on Flynn's fitness for the office, Connally released a tele gram in which Daniels said the former democratic national chairman's knowledge, personal ity and "his whole-hearted devo tion to winning the war admir ably fits him for the duties of the diplomatic post." Music Ban Studied Other developments: The house rules committee unanimously approved a resolu tion to continue the existence of the special house committee studying the problems of small business. Chairman Patman (D Tex.) said it would ask an ap propriation of $25,000. A resolution authorizing con tinuance of an investigation into a union musicians ban against recorded music was introduced in the senate by Chairman Clark (D-Idaho) of a special sub-com mittee.

Schools will remain down Fri day it was announced by Super intendent Arnold L. Gralapp, who said that in some instances buildings could operate but in view of the fact that all could not open, it was deemed advis able to keep the same schedule. Fremont was unable to get heat. Riverside found the hill clogged with drifts, and at Pelican bus service was interrupted. Workers Struggle Major mills in the area were down Wednesday. Workers were unable to reach the plants and those who did manage to get to work found they could not han dle the green lumber. Downtown workers struggled through the slush which came up over curbs and at Eleventh and Main street members of the city crew used huge shovels to make a path for the stream which ran into the Main drains. Highway traffic out of Klam ath Falls was sharply curtailed although all roads are open, ac cording to the state highway de partment.

Altogether. Ivory asserted, the basin faces a total loss of produc tion totaling 135,000,000 feet in 1943 and 305,000,000 feet in 1944.

Mills adversely affected. Ivory said, have contacted local and regional forest officials. "They are sympathetic and cooperative, but say that over-nil forest policy prevents putting up large cuts of pine stumpage," said Ivory. "Furthermore, cur rent regulations require them to award any timber put up to the highest bidder, irrespective of his needs in connection with the war." Ivory said the lumber produc tion office in Portland is sym pathetic but has advised that it lacks authority to allocate pine timbc. Ivory then suggested that a system of allocation be worked out, providing government tim ber for existing mills which have no other available stumpage. "The government is pressing Klamath mills daily to turn out more lumber," said Ivory. "It tells them to whom they may sell and at what price. Is it not to the government's advantage to see the timber goes to those who need it?"
