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.
One legislator who asked not
to be quoted by name said it
was his understanding, obtained
elsewhere than at the conference,
that great efforts are bing made
to improve the detection devices
and to build escort ships for
convoys.
The president was reported to
, have said that the war of attri
tion by which Japan's ships and
planes apparently are being de
stroyed faster than they can be
replaced was having telling ef

NO HITS SCORED
IN JAP ATTACK
ON ALEUTIANS
(Continued From Page One)
ing failed to return from a raid
on the Jap air base at Munda
in the central Solomons.
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..

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.
