The agency is concerned because consumption of gasoline by civilian motorists has risen steadily in the last few months. It has reached the point where the value of outstanding coupons is more than the total amount of gasoline set aside for civilian use. Officials said the over-issuance of stamps last month totaled 100,000 gallons a day. The petroleum administration for war last. month allocated an additional • 140’600 barrels ; a >day for civilian use over and above the 1,264,000 barrels of gasoline previously set aside to meet daily civilian requirements. The extra allocation permitted OPA to raise the value of A coupons from four i to six gallons and to iift the B card ceilings to 650 miles a month.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA.

Local ration boards — provided I with some extra gas—generusly gave B card holders more gasoline than they wore eligible for by occupation in many instances when those users applied for an additional amount, officials said. o War Correspondent Executed By Nazis Associated Press Writer Executed New York, July 9 (UP) —The Associated Press said last night that Joseph Morton. AP war correspondent in the Mediterranean, apparently was executed by the Germans on Jan. 24, 1945, after being captured in Slovakia. An AP dispatch from Rome said Morton was captured while ac- . companying a military mission of 17 Americans and British wiio ■ went to assist Slovak patriots in a revolt last fall. The entire group was captured at Banska Bystrica, 125 miles north of Budapcct, and all apparently were killed, the dispatch said. Lynn Heinerling. another Associated Press reporter, went to the area several weeks ago to determine Morton’s fate. He returned to Rome yesterday and said he was satisfied from questioning of German officials and guards that Morton was executed at the Nazi concentration camp at Mau Hausen, a small Austrian town on the Danube, 10 miles southeast of • Linz, thp AP said. Hcinzcrlin said he was told Morton’s body was cremated. The full story of Heinzerling’s trip is now being reviewed by censorship since it concerns war crimes investigation. Morton, a native of St. Joseph, Mo., was 34. He had been an editor and reporter for the Associated Press for eight years. o Tanchuk Recaptured By Chinese Forces Former American Air Base Taken Chungking, July 9 — (UP) — Chinese troops today recaptured the former American air base of Tanchuk, clearing all of Kwangsi province except the northeast corner, where they battled in the outskirts of Kweilin. In their great surge through Kwangsi, the Chinese forces had recaptured three of the former 14th air force bases — Liuchow, Nanning, and Tanchuk—and the fourth, Kweilin, was directly threatened. Chinese armies slicing into the steadily-narrowing Japanese corridor across China had recovered 400 miles of territory from Channankwan, on the Kwangsi-Indo-China border, to Loyung, 20 miles northeast of Liuchow. Today’s communique reported the recapture of Channankwau as well as Tanchuk. Along the west river, in southeast Kwangsi, the Chiense now Held all the cities on an east to west line except Wuchow, on the border of southest Kwangsi. The Chinese were closing in on Kweilin from two directions. The main force advanced north along the railroad from Liuchow. Another column swung wide to outflank the city from the west. After bypassing Paishou, 35 miles west, of Kweilin, the second force drove right, through to the city’s outr 1/ i r t a

Riverman Shoots Niagara Rapids Matches Father's Stunts At Niagara Niagara Falls, Ont., July fI—(UP) —William Hill, Jr., 32-year-old riverman who matched his father’s stunt of' .shooting the wild rapids and whirlool of the Niagara river in a barrel, said today that the battered barrel would never make the trip again and "1 don't think I will cither.’ 1 ' “It was the worst pounding I ever took,” Hill isaid as he was helped through the hatch of the 750- pound red .steel drum yesterday after outwitting Canadian police to ride from a “secret” launching above the famous rapids to Gueenston, Ont. The barrel had whirled and leaped through the white water for seven miles, sometimes shooting along at 40 miles an hour. The red haired riverman made the ride to collect contributions from spectators to equip a mobile life-saving unit as a memorial to his father. More than 200,000 spectators lined the banks of the river’s gorge to watch Hill ride his “patched-up-barrel through the rook strewn, rolling Waters. The authorities had set up barricades and sent out special patrols to stop Hill. But they made no effort to bother him after the trip was over. Hill eluded police attempting to stop the launching by slipping his barrel down the escarpment into the river at 3 A. M. yesterday. He anchored it in the river and piled driftwood over it a half mile from his announced starting point. Police, busy with the throng of spectators .failed to notice him as he crawled into the barrel and cast off. Two hours later, Hill, clasping hi,s hands above his head like a victorious prize fighter, was towed to the Queenston dock of the Canadian steamship line. His hands were shaking when he tried to light a eigair. The barrel had sprung a leak and i he wa,s dripping wet. I IHis mother, Mrs. William Hill, Sr., whose late .husband braved the rapids three times, was waiting in an automobile. “Thank God, sou, you got through it,” she isaid. She collapsed an hour later from the strain she had gone through. — o • Chicago Youth Drowns Sunday At Gary Beach Gary, Ind., July 9 —(UP) — James Minogue, 20, Chicago, was drowned at Wells .street beach yesterday. State police from the Gary post investigated.
