Cider Reductions In Coal Shipments Cut Shipments To Industhrial Plants Washington, Jan. 19 — (UP) — Solid fuels administrator Hhrcfld L. Ickes today ordered farther reductions in shipment ot bituminous coal from 111 mining district* to Industrial plants haring stocks in ex-i ces* of a bare mfnitnUta for safety. I The now limitations affect all bituminous coal produced "east of the Mississippi river, ekcept the relatively email production in Michigan, he said. The action also will release additional soft coal for home consumption. Ickes said that mid-winter consumption requirement® now exceed production by "millions of tons,” and to provide the coal necessary to meet minimum essential war industry requirement and increased civilian needs, it was necessary to compel users having larger' stockpiles to meet up to one-half of their current needs from those stocks, he said. The new order permitted industrial consumers to receive new shipments covering their full current monthly requirements only if they had stockpiles insufficient to last them more than a specific number of days, varying froin 20 to 30 according to the source of the coal, Ils use, and iliethod of transportation. o ; Says Comic Strips Won’t Hurt Child Balanced Reading Program Is Needed Evanston, 111., Jan. 19 —‘(UP) — The average elementary school child reads 15 newspaper comic j strips daily but they won’t hurt him if his reading program as a whole is welUbalanced, Dr. Paul-A. Witty, professor of education and director of the psycho-educational clinic at Northwestern university, declared today. iln the current issue of the national Parent-Teacher magazine, Dr. (Witty reported that grammar school children read an average of four and often five comic magazines regularly. “For some children any amount of reading in the field of comics may seem excessive,” he said. “For others, whose reading program is otherwise well rounded and balanced, the comics can scarcely be considered harmful.” ' He cited the ease of one sixthgrade boy who reported reading 28 comic magazines occasionally and more than 20 strips regularly but who also had read 30 books during the few months preceding the survey. Witty, who recently directed the army's program for training illiterates, advised parents to guide their children's reading onto channels relating to their interests and pasttimes. V'Good reading habits are not developed simply by giving a child a book on occasions; they are nurtured in homes in which the parent shares the reading interests of his children,” he said. “It's the adventure and excitement that give the comic book its special appeal,” he added, “and, fortunately, there are many good books that contain the same qualities."

Demands Report On Dog’s Air Travels Displeasure Grows On Priority Flight Washington, Jan. 19 —(UP)—■The cross-country priority flight of ©laze, Col. Elliott Roosevelt’s big ball mastiff, brought new expressions of displeasure on Capitol Hill today despite the war department’s promise to prevent repetition of such "mistakes.’’ One prominent senator, who declined use of hi* name, pointed angrily to reports that an army major had met Blaze when he landed to Calirornia after his trip from Washington and escorted the 115 pound dog to the home of Col. Roosevelt’s wife, movie actress Faye Emerson. “if the army has so much help it can send ttajors around chaperohing dogs,” he said, "I fail to see how ft jtfetffies the administration's arguments .that the manpower situation is so critical that a national service act is needed." A "complete report” on Blaze’s aerial travels was demanded by Rep. George P. Miller, D., Calif. His congressional district included the home of one of the three servicemen forced off Blaze's plane while the dog was permitted to complete the flight to Hollywood. Miller said the Serviceman, Seaman T/c Leon Leroy of Antioch, Calif., had seen foreign service and should have been entitled to special consideration in remaining aboard. “'if the facts as represented are correct," Miller wrote to Secretary of whr Henry L. Stimson, “this incident is deplorable and cannot, in' my estimation, be justified.” The White House agreed that the whole incident was “regrettable” ibut declared that Col. Roosevelt had not been responsible for getting Blaze an *'A” travel priority. In fact, no one here professed to know just who did make the arrangements, but the army promised to take steps to prevent such an occurrence again. Seaman Leroy and twlo com-i panions were put off the army air transport command plane at Memphis, Tenn., because room had to be rtiade for some “high priority” cargo. "They held only “C” priorities while Blaze, who boosted an “A” rating, stayed on the plane. o SEIZE CONTROL (Continued From Pape 1) miles south of Rosario, was captured by American units, while other troops fought in the outskirts of Pozorrubio, halfway between Urdaneta and Rosario. The Japanese, in au lltb hour attempt to save Urdaueta, counterattacked with' several so-cailed tankettes, but were quickly repulsed. the tankettes are light, small tanks carrying 37-millimeter guns, but their armor is so vulnerable that It cannot withstand even .50 caliber machine-gun fire. Once Rosario and Pozorrubio have been secured firmly, it appeared doubtful that MacArthur would send his troops farther northeast into the mountains toward Baguio for the present, but instead would concentrate on the drive toward Manila. Northwest of Rosario, doughboys were advancing north along the coast of the Lingayen gulf toward Agoo, six miles above Damortis. At the cent' ” of the beachhead, the Americans completed the o<cupatidn of Pamqui. 76 miles north of Manila and a dozen miles above the provincial capital ot Tarlac, after. twin advances from Moncada

and Carolling, four miles north and 11 miles west northwest of Paniqui respectively. A tour of the front showed that the force at Paniqui, awaiting the consolidation of their northeastern flank before striking out anew toward Manila, have built up huge dumps of ammunition and other stores. Bridges along the roads from the coast have been repaired and transport was moving forward in a steady stream. MacArthur’s communique disclosed fighters and transport planes now wereo perating from the now were operating from the Lingayen airstrip, the first time Luzon since early in 1942. flip **" * \ NOT A SINGLE gripe in the world has Henry W.
