[" V â>hprltrnukr tlailn Hrrnn'i \u2022 ) \u2014 Gen.Nikolai Vatutin\u2019s highly mobile First Ukrainian Army, expanding its front on the Sarny sector to a width of fifty miles or more, struck out in several sweeping movements today to threaten the German-held strongholds of Rovno, Pinsk and Kovel.The strong armored and infantry force of Vatutin\u2019s right wing which captured Domhrovitsa, 20 miles North of Sarny on the Rovno - Sarny - Baronowieze railway, fought its way through frozen marshland country to within oO miles Southeast of Pinsk, important centre on the Gomel-Brest-Litovsk Railway.It already had passed the worst of the Pripet Marshes and advance units were approaching the high roiling ground beyond the swamps.While this force was smashing its way to the Northwest, a new offensive launched Tuesday, to the North of the marshes by Gen.Konstantin Rokossovsky\u2019s White Russian Army was approaching the city of Mozyr, 80 miles Southwest of Gomel, along a 20-mile-wide front.Dispatches said German troops in front of Rokossovsky\u2019s advance were falling-back towards Pinsk, and a second threat to that city apparently was developing.Pinsk is 140 miles West of Mozyr at the confluence of the Strumen and Pina rivers along the Northern edge of the Pripet Marshes.Using Sarny as a pivot, Vatutin sent other flying columns South and dispatches reported the operation within 23 miles North of Rovno, an advance of approximately 27 miles through marshy terrain to high ground beyond.Other units were reported striking West from Sarny toward Kovel, an important junction on the Kicv-Warsaw railway.Rokossovsky\u2019s drive above the Pripet Marshes paralleled a fresh Russian advance along the Southern edge of the vast swamp area, where Gen.Nikolai Vatutin\u2019s First Ukrain-.an Army crossed the Sluch River and captured the rail Junction of Sarny and Dombrovitsa, 20 milts to tin North.Sarny -s 270 miles East of Warsaw, on the Kiev - Odessa trunk railway.In the Southern Ukraine, the left wing of Vatutin\u2019s forces encountered strong German counter-attacks East of Vinnitsa, but continued to smash through German resistance South of Belaya Tserkov, Further East Gen.Ivan 8.Konev\u2019s Second Ukrainian Army,, driving for a junction with Vatutin\u2019s group, scored additional successes against the enemy in the Kirovograd salient.The Russian communique said more than I),000 Germans were killed and 144 Nazi tanks wrecked in the past twenty-four hours, while Continued on page 2, column 1.London, Jan.13.\u2014(IP)\u2014The flaming battle which a great force of possibly 1,200 American bombers and fighters fought over Germany Tuesday with the rocket-firing Nazi air force was viewed on both sides of the English Channel today as a forerunner of the mighty struggle s for air supremacy expected to accompany a land invasion of Weet-| ern Europe.A dispatch from Stockholm quoted a German military spokesman in Berlin as describing the three-hour air battle as a \u201crehearsal for the German defence force which will have to meet Allied invasion air i fleets.\u201d The mighty raid, directed against three desperately-guarded airacraft assembly plants in the heart of the Reich, was also jinked to the forth-l coming invasion by Gen.Henry H.Arnold, chief of the United Stales ¦ Army Air Forces.; \u201cWere it not for the continuing ; attacks against the production cap-! acities of German aircraft factor-! ies,\u201d he told a press conference in Wichita, Kan., \u201cNazi efforts to I double their fighter strength might have succeeded, with the result that 1 the difficulties which must be over-! come .by Allied air attacks and also i by amphibious landing forces would be incalculably increased.\u201d His views were generally accepted here, and the Daily Express declared the attack \u201cindicatos the United ; States bomber force based in Brit- ! ain has reached a new strength which may soon equal the R.A.F.\u2019s thousand plane (bomber) raids.\u201d More than 700 heavy bombers and a probably record-size fighter es-! cort formed the American aerial task ! force.The attacks, directed against factories at Oschersleben, Halberstadt and Brunswick (Braunsweig), all within a radius of 120 miles of Berlin, constituted possibly the most crippling blow of the war against the Nazi air arm.Results were described officially as excellent.In beating their way to and from the objectives and unloading their explosives directly on the targets, the Americans shot down more than 100 of the challenging enemy aircraft.The London press was virtually 1 unanimous in hailing it as a mighty blow to German air defences.The j numbers and fury of Nazi fighters prove, the Daily Telegraph said, that : \u201cthe battle of Germany is growing desperate\u201d and heading for a show-; down.An 8th Air Force communique late yesterday said the assault cost ; 64 planes, a record loss.Fifty-nine : were heavy bombers and five were ; fighters.In contrast, Berlin propaganda I outlets this morning still were claim-; ing 124 bombers and 12 fighters | were shot down, a claim they had !

Washington, Jan, 13.\u2014-(TP)\u2014President Roosevent\u2019s request for leg-| islation to draft civilian labor for jthe home front ran into new and un-i expected opposition today from ! Chairman Harry S.Truman (Dem., Mo.) of the United States Senate's War Investigating Committee, for I years an administration booster.| At the same time Chairman Robert R.Reynolds (Dem., N.C.) of : the Senate Military Affairs Committee expressed doubt that a nat-; ional service bill re-offered by Sen-j ator Warren R.Austin (Rep., Vt.) I could survive Committee opposition.Two top labor leaders, William !

Company war production plant I warehouse, levelled an adjoining ! building in the Boston and Maine j Railroad yards and damaged a j .small structure early today.The blaze, believed to have orig-i inated in a onc-storcy wooden warehouse, jumped to the huge brick warehouse and touched off the .smaller structure before it was brought under control by firemen of six- cities and I >wns.Flames 100 feet high leaped from the .Smelling Company building, attracting hundreds to the scene.Firemen were hampered by freight cars on sidings in the Boston and Maine\u2019s receiving yards, and were forced to lay hose linee a distance of 800 feet from the Northern artery.Sparks, driven by a strong wind, threatened other buildings in the heart of the Cambridge railroad yards which housed the wrecked and damaged structures.Firemen threw Montreal White Collar Workers Go Back To Desks With Union Leaders Agreeing To Government Proposal Continued on Page 2.Col.6.Montreal, Jan.13.\u2014(R1- Everything was back to normal at City Hall today and municipal officials said that \u201cevery one reported at the usual hour this morning according to a survey made by our department heads.\u201d City officials added that the return of the 2,000 white collai- workers, on strike for 23 days, was \u201ceffected quietly and everybody seemed happy to be back to work and ready to clean up the back log accumulated during the past three weeks.\u201d Officially, the walk-out ended last night without the granting of the wage demande of the workers, instead.union leaders agreed to a Provincial Government proposal that the wage dispute be submitted to an arbitration board\u2014an offer rejected three times previously by the strikers.The, call-off order was issued by the \u201cCommittee of Nine,\u201d representing three unions involved, who have been in direct charge of the strike, on recommendation of the executive committee of the Canadian and Catholic Confederation of Labor.The C.C.C.L., parent body of the largest of the three municipal unions, has been acting in an advisory capacity to the strikers.The C.C.C.Ii.Executive Committee made its recommendation a few hours after !.E.Potvin, Chairman of the Quebec Municipal Commission which controls the city\u2019s fi- nances, issued a \u201clast invitation to the workers to return to work today.The \u201cinvitation,\u201d although it said t.iiat those answering the appeal \u201cwill benefit,\u201d was looked upon by the Committee as being practically an ultimatum to the strike leaders because it ended with the words \u201cI give to all civic employees who will want to exercise their right of labor liberty, the assurance of complete protection at all time and everywhere.\u201d Tho Committee looked upon that a promise of police protection for those wishing to return to work.There had been no attempt previously to provide such protection and no serious effort had been made to test picket lines.The Committee issued its call-off order on the basis of an eight-point Provincial Government proposal that promised that any pay increases recommended by tho.arbitration board would be made retroactive to December 1, and a guarantee of no discrimination against the strikes.The Committee had at first demanded a promise of wage increases ranging from $2!»5 yearly up to as high as $1,800 in a few'cases.Two subsequent proposals successively modified the demands but the Government refused to make any promise of pay increases unless the dispute were referred to an arbitration board.The only actual cash Huns Offer 5th Severe Resistance Continued on nage 2.column 2.Roosevelt esssgc Galls For 100 Sillien U.S.Aircraft Attack iajor Jap Outposts U.S.Air Headquarters in China, Jan.12.\u2014j/P)\u2014Unescorted American bombers bombed the Japanese aluminum plant at Takao on the Southwest coast of Formosa ond the Bangkok railroad yards in Thailand in two night attacks Tuesday, it was announced today.It was the first blow at Bangkok, 1,500 miles Southwest of Formosa, by bombers from Chin;, bases.(The Japanese said yesterday that Formosa had been attacked, and added today that Bangkok was raided for more than an hour and a half.) Twelve tons of bombs crashed down on the aluminum plant despite intense anti-aircrafo action and started fires.The plant is reported to supply a substantial part of the metal used in Japanese aircraft.Japanese leaders for several months have been appealing desperately for a greatly increased output of planes.Unlike the November 25 raid on Formosa by medium bombers and fighters when thirty-one enemy planes were destroyed in the air and on the ground, the heavy bombers encountered no Japanese interceptors.RATION INCREASE FOR NAZI WORKERS New York, Jan.13.\u2014(IP) \u2014 The Berlin radio, in a broadcast directed to Nazi forces in Norway, said today that an immediate increase in rations had been ordered for workers in armament factories and other vital industries in Poland, All-Time High Was Attained During 1943 In Value Of Canadian Exports Ottawa, Jan.13.\u2014((R\u2014The value of Canadian exports reached an all-time high last year and exceeded the value of imports by more than $1,350,000,000, Trades Minister MacKinnon revealed last night.Domestic and foreign exports during the year were valued at more than $3.000,000,000.This was more than three times greater than the value of 1939 exports, set at $935,900,000.\u201cWell over 70 per cent of these exports were materials used directly in carrying on this total war, and were sent where they would best serve the cause of the United Nations,\u201d Mr.MacKinnon said.To indicate the trend in the.export of war materials the Minister said that; 1.\u2014The value of exports of motor vehicles and parts, including trucks, -gun carriers and tanks, increased from $26,000,000 in 1939 to $472.-; 000,000 in 1943.2.\u2014Exports of ships, aircraft and Canadian army and navy stores, valued at about $1.000,000 in 1939 rose to $176,000,000 last year, j 3.\u2014Exports of shells and cartridges, valued at $1,000,000 in the [first year of the war, attained $354,-;000,000 in 1943.S 4.\u2014The value of exports of guns, I set at a few thousand dollars in 1939, totalled $144,000,000 last year , I 5.\u2014Exports of main items of food j increased from $183,000,000 in 11939 to $482,000,000 in 1943.!

$100,0-00,000,000 to cover what he j ho-ped would be the decisive effort; toward victory and the critical prob-j Jems of peace.He requested his astronomical appropriation for the fiscal year ending June 30tii, 1945\u2014about the same as the estimated total expenditures for the current fiscai year \u2014 and said about $90,000,000,000 of the total would be for war alone.The eighteen months between now and the end of the next fiscal year would be, he said, \u201ccrucial in the history of the United States and of mankind, a period which will see decisive action in this global war.\u201d | Total war expenditures by the United States on June 30th, 1945,! would be $397,000,0-00,000, the President estimated, and the total public debt, bv then, probably would be $258,000,000,000.The deficit on next year\u2019s budget would be about fifty-nine per cent of the total, he said, and he urged Congress to increase taxation, particularly on war profits, revenues for the current fiscal years are estimated to be forty-one per cent of expe \u2019 litures and he did not anticipate anv increase in the next fiscal year.(A request by th-e Secretary of the Treasury for additional taxation of $10,500,000,000 has been whittled down in the two Houses of Congress to less than $2.500,000,000, and is still under consideration).The President said he hoped all the appropriations requested today would not be needed but it .vas necessary to have authority to spend this amount if necessary.He assured Congress that the executive would be prepared to adjust expenditures to \u201cchanging strategic necessities,\u201d and would \u201cuse all the authority available to prevent needless expenditures.\u201d Outlining the two-fold purpose of this budget he said; \u201cWhile wé move toward complete defeat of oui enemies we must lay the groundwork to return the nation to peaceful pursuits.This double task is the essence of the Government\u2019s programme and must be reflected in the budget.\u201cAs we win the battle of producing implements of modern war we enter the period of decisive action on many battlefields throughout the world.\u201cWe have attained superiority in war production.Production alone, however, does not assure victory.We must fight and fight hard.\u201d Capital costs for production plant had dropped and would continue to drop.But costs of a growing fighting force would increase.An idea of the problems of demobilization was given by the President when he said some 1,000,000 men and women had been dis charged from the forces since January 1942, for reasons of fitness, age or other causes.Reconversion of production plant and termination of contracts coupled with disposal of surplus war ma-icrial would be an expensive; problem.Some $12.000,000,000 in war contracts already had been terminated.The President said every effort was being made to reduce expenditures and the great army of civilian workers was shrinking.As of October last there were 2,798,000 civilians on the payroll in Continental United States, 1,54,500 in Alaska, Panama Canal Zone and abroad, about 75 per cent of them in the War and Navy Department- Continued on nage 2 column 3 FOUR U.S.AIRMEN DIE IN CRACK-UP Sioux City, la., Jan.13.\u2014 (IP) \u2014 j Four U.S.Army airmen were killed, two others were injured and a !

Somewhere in Burma, Jan.13.\u2014 : (IP)\u2014United States engineers have pushed the new Ledo road through the primeval jungle of Northern Burma almost on the heels of Chi-| nese troops clearing the zone of Japanese.I The results as well as the hazards; of this Allied effort were viewed first hand by Lt.-Gen.Joseph W.Stilweil, United States commander in the Far East, on his first tour of Burma since he marched out of I the country in May, 1942, after it ! had been overrun by the invaders.! The results already are good.The I new highway which will substitute for the old Burma Road already ex-! tends deep into Northern Burma and - is being used by trucks.Ahead of ; the completed road are trails which ; a jeep may travel and they end only 1 a short distance behind the front ; lines, j But the retaking of Northern Bur-! ma to permit construction of the | Ledo road through to the Burma Road is bound to be difficult.The Japanese are unlikely to give up this important area without a terrific struggle.It is apparent the Japanese lack planes for an aerial supply line for they are using elophante, horses and human porters and living off the land as much as possible.Stilweil came into this thick jungle by airplane and jeep and covered nmo.st every inch of Hukawng Valley where American-equipped and trained Chinese soldiers commanded by Gens.Sun Li-Jen and Ling Yao-Ilsiang have pushed the Japanese into the upper reachce; of the Chind-win River.The Chinese have been mopping up the Hukawng Valley but the Japanese still hold positions around Taro in the Western part of the valley and Sharaw in the Eastern end.They are using pillboxes made of earth and bamboo so expertly camouflaged they cannot be detected ten feet away.Craekshot snipers who remain hidden in trees for days at a time aleo are causing trouble.Heavy Damage Caused By Flames Valleyfield, Quo., Jan.13.t(F)\u2014| Fire that, partially destroyed Chat-1 eau Salaberry hotel was brought j under control after causing damage estimated at $100,000 and bringing injuries to two persons yesterday.It was one of the worst fires in | Valleyfield\u2019s history, but nearby | houses were saved by Valleyfield firemen aided by detachments from Montreal 40 miles East of here.Mrs.L.P.Godbout, wife of the owner of the hotel, suffered serious burns in the outbreak.Only other person reported injured was her sister, Miss Germaine Monette, who j suffered minor burns.The fire, of undetermined origin, t broke out shortly before noon and was under control almost five hours j later after threatening to Spread to adjoining buildings.Hotel guests and patrons of a restaurant in the building made their way to safety after the outbreak was discovered, Firemen were hampered early in the fight against the flames because of a lack of water due to frozen hydrants, Montreal firemen, responding to a rush call, arrived in mid-afternoon and the flames were controlled an hour and a half later.Fighting Patrols Active on Both 8th and 5th Army Fronts\u2014British Destroyers in Adriatic Bombard Enemy Communications Along Coast.Algiers, Jan.13.\u2014(Æ\u2019)\u2014French troops fighting with the olli Army in Italy have taken several important heights against stiff resistance and the Allied offensive toward the key city of Cassino continues, headquarters announced today.British destroyers in the Adriatic bombarded enemy communications along Italy\u2019s East coast and die Air Force attacked Nazi positions around Orsogna in the British 8th Army sector, but otherwise weather restricted air operations.The village of Cervaro, four miles from Cassino, fell at 1 p.m.yesterday, it was announced here.The German High Command previously had said Nazi forces withdrew after being outflanked.The communique said fighting patrols were active on both the 8th.and 5th Army fronts.A naval communique said enemy shore batteries returned the fire of the British destroyers as they steamed near shore at Porto Civit-anov, 25 miles below Ancona, Monday night and added: \u201cAlthough ace.urate it caused no damage.\u201d Pedaso, 10 miles farther down the coast, also was shelled and those aboard the vessels saw a fire spring up.In addition to the attacks on enemy positions by fighter-bombers medium, bombers blasted the railway junction in tiie Arce area, also beyond the 8th Army line.Two enemy aircraft were destroyed and three Allied planes are missing.As American troops were entering Cervaro, the French took two high points overlooking the village of Acquafondala, seven miles Northwest of Cassino, and advanced more than half a mile Southwest of Roccheta, 12 miles Northeast of Cervaro.GREATER INTEREST IN POLITICS URGED Montreal, Jan.13.\u2014 ffl \u2014Gordon Graydon, National Chairman of the Progressive Conservative party, said here last night that if

stiff German resistance and adverse weather.Yesterday the German High Command announced evacuation of Cervaro, last strongly-fortified point hairing the way to Cassino, but Allied headquarters here gave no official confirmation.Progress toward Cassino, which is on the main inland railroad and highway leading to Rome, has been slow, with Lt.-Gen.Mark Clark, commander of the Allied 5th Army, prefacing each hard-won advance with heavy artillery barrages.On the British 8th Army front near the Adriatic, action remained quiet, although it was reported Lt.-Gen.Sir Oliver Leese might order his

Department Dairy Products Grading and Inspection Services, said today in addressing the Dairymen\u2019s Association of Western Ontario annual convention.Of all cheese manufactured in Canada in 1943, 95.02 per cent was found to he.first grade, an increase of 1.34 per cent over 1942.\u201cOf greater importance is the fact that 70.94 per cent of all cheese graded scored 93 points or higher which is an increase of 4.91 per cent,\u201d Mr.Cameron said.Total cheese gradings in 1943 were 22.54 per cent less than in 1942.The decrease was unfortunate r ¦ The demand for all dairy products : for home use and export had been, j exceedingly heavy in the past year.I The improved quality of cheese jhad resulted in producers receiving | larger payments in premiums.While the production of cheese bad dropped 22.5 per cent, the disbursement of premium payments by the dominion was down only 16.7 per cent.Mr.Cameron said that butter production had increased and quality improved in 1943, with 314,024,353 pounds manufactured, a gain of 11.67 per cent over 1942.Of all butter graded in Canada last year, 34.79 per cent was scored 83 points of better, an increase of 1.29 per cent.987494

in the national professional football league.The nation's fourth largest city has been supporting, and liberally, a first class minor league club, the Los Angeles Angels, who have out-drawn at the turnstiles some of the major loop representatives, but, as Clarence (Pants) Rowland puts it, \u2018\u2018we\u2019U simply have to get major league baseball when tills war is over.\u201d Rowland, a shrewd veteran of the baseball wars was voted the minor leagues\u2019 top executive in 1943.He made the Angeles the best drawing minor league club in America last season.He envisions the possibility of a third major league, operating from Portland, Ore., South of Los Angeles.\u201cThis Pacific Coast area is the fastest growing in the nation,\u201d says Pants.\u201cIf my associate presidents don\u2019t agree with me in striving to get our league classified as a third major, then Los Angeles is going out to buy into the American or National just as soon as a franchise is available.\u201d There are several hurdles to clear, as Rowland knows all too well.There was an amendment to the major-minor agreement enacted at the last session providing that if any major league team was placed in this territory, the purchaser would have to acquire the physical property, reimburse the coast league of loss of a member and also reimburse the league owners, individually.It would cost considerable money, but this populous area undoubtedly is ready, and has been ready for several years, to pay for major league baseball.Continues Rowland: \u201cOur baseball supporters definitely are major league-minded.In Los Angeles, we have all the essentials with which to successfully operate major league baseball.Our club last year could have finished fifth or higher in either of the major circuits.The surface of this entire Pacific Coast hasn\u2019t yet been scratched.\u201d T0 diGt$T THAN PLAIN COD LIVER OIL!

their lowly standing in the National Hockey League, are relying heavily upon men dicharged from the Canadian Army to bolster their forces.The Red Wings, holding fourth place by a two-point margin over Chicago Black Hawks, acquired new strength last week with the addition of Murray Armstrong, formerly of Toronto Maple Leafs and the disbanded Brooklyn Americans.Last night it was learned Detroit has added net-minder Conny Dion and veteran Forward Ken Kilrea, both discharged by the Army in Kingston, Ont.In an exhibition game at Kingston last night against Kingston Frontenac Army, Detroit won an 11-3 decision over the team which recently withdrew from the Senior \u201cA\u201d group of the Ontario Hockey Association because of the Army\u2019s new ruling on amateur hockey participation.Both
