RATIONED PLANTS - MAY MAKE ARMS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7 (U. P). —The War Department has begun an intensive campaign to convert to armament production thousands of consumer goods factories facing eventual shutdown because of diversion of raw materials to the defense program, it was learned today. The office of Undersecretary of War Robert P. Patterson and the Army Industrial College have been directing surveys among Mid-West-ern factories which already have been affected by rationing under the defense priority system. As a result, a list of more than 500 plants which can be converted has been prepared for the Army and Navy munitions board. The industries covered by the survey included washing machines, refrigerators, home heating appliances, bath tub makers,

Vladivostok Becomes Threat To U. S.-Japanese Peace

By LUDWELL DENNY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Aug. 7. — The Vladivostok issue will soon be added to the Thailand threat and to economic sanctions as a strain on U. S.Japanese relations. American supplies for Russia are being rushed across the Pacific to the Siberian port of Vladivostok, while Secretary of State Cordell Hull and Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden repeat the warning against Japanese aggression and reinforce American and British forces in the South Pacific. Japanese forces are concentrating on the Thailand border in the

Washington and Moscow have been dismissing the reports of joint American-Russian bases as inspired by Berlin and Tokyo. But no one denies that Vladivostok is the only base near Japan, and the only port of entry for American aid to Russia. Statements by President Roosevelt and the State Department here, and by ‘Harry Hopkins in Moscow, leave no doubt that this Government is going to get war goods to Russia. Since the Soviet has only a dozen or less ships available, and since distance and forbidden combat zones eliminate the Atlantic route except for already over-bur-dened British shipping, most of those supplies will have to flow through the Vladivostok bottleneck. What would happen if an American ship were sunk? Would it turn out another Tutuila or Panay

PROMINENT FASGIST PRAISES CARDINAL

ROME, Aug. 7 (U. P.).—Roberto Farinacci, former Fascist Party secretary, praised His Eminence Wil liam Cardinal] O'Connell of Boston today, quoting him that there is no liberty in the United States. Farinacei said in his Cremona newspaper Regime Fascista: “Today, the great majority of Catholics constitute a bloc in the Axis spiritual forces. “These Catholics should not worry if the Vatican organ—Osservatore

Romano—is more on the other side than on theirs because there are bishops in Europe who already have asked God's blessing on the Axis armies. “In America it is not true that the clergy is on Roosevelt's side. Cardinal O'Connell . . attacked President Roosevelt's policy which
