Sis of Army? - In all of his review, the presi dent was said to have held out no hope for a quick conclusion of the war, but rather to have stressed that the fighting is like ly to be fierce and costly in lives. One question asked him con cerned the size of the army, a controversial issue with which congress must deal in its investi gation of manpower needs, and the president was reported : to have estimated roughly that 7,500,000 men in khaki would be enough. , 1 Detection Studied ;His description of the meas ures taken to combat submarine attacks on allied convoys y was reported to have included in formation on improvements in detection devices, as well as a report that the United States and Great Britain are building more ships than the undersea marauders sink.

Steady Development The communique said that on January 26, a week ago today, army planes had bombed and scored near hits on a Japanese cargo ship at Tarawa island in the Gilbert group. This, as far as is known here, is the first time that land-based bombers have struck so deeply into enemy mandated wand territory, Tar awa is approximately 100 miles from the nearest American bases which are Guadalcanal, the Fiji island, and Samoa. Action within the Solomons area developed steadily from Saturday morning when mar auder medium bombers deliv ered an attack on Munda which was followed in the afternoon by more marauders and Flying Fort resses. Jap Barges Shelled Fires were started as a result of hits scored, during the after noon assault On Sunday a number of en emy barges were discovered off Cape Esperance, a Japanese-held beachhead at the northwestern end of Guadalcanal island. An American destroyer shelled,, the barges, but the communique did not report what damage was in flicted. On Monday morning a force of dive bombers accompanied by Avenger torpedo planes and Wildcat fighters assaulted, the Munda area again and it 'was from this action that two dive bombers failed to get home. Re sults of the attack were not stated. Jap Interception Also on Monday morning, a force of Flying Fortresses with Warhawk and Lightning fight ers bombed a large Japanese cargo ship off Shortland island and scored three direct hits. All the American planes returned to their base although three of the fighters were damaged by anti aircraft fire. ; . A second wave of Fortresses following up that attack went in to attack enemy shipping in the Buin-Shortland area, which comprises 'the island-studded waters immediately southeast of Bougainville, and was inter cepted by 20 enemy Zeros.- It was from this flight that three planes were apparently lost and a fourth badly damaged. The communique said that while all the air action was in progress ground forces in Guad alcanal island, continued to ad vance slowly westward in their campaign to wipe out organized' Japanese resistance. - There was no amplification beyond the bare statements of the communique' regarding the Japanese attacks in the Aleut ians. The location of the Amer ican positions which were at tacked was not disclosed, al though presumably they were bases in the Andreanof group.. Returns From Coast Mrs. E. L.

EGG PRICES DROP; BUTTER RATIONEDHERE (Continued From Page One) . many Klamath people have been buying butter here and sending it to their families or friends in the butter-hungry .bigger cities and defense areas. This activity resulted in an increasing consumption of but ter here in . the past several weeks. KF Rationing Program But now, local buttermakers say, the community's butter sup ply is falling off, due to a de crease in. butterfat production and the fact that the government requires the large creameries to sell 30 per cent of their product to the armed forces. These conditions resulted in a local rationing program. Deal ers will receive 50 per cent of their December deliveries. . - No hardship was anticipated, but it is expected the develop ment will stop the purchasing of butter here for folks in. the bigger centers. Some of the re tailers were, considering restrict- ing all purchasers to one pound or other methods of distributing the available supply of butter as equitably as possible among all customers.
