The accepted estimate is that the Japanese have 200,000 ren and Gen. ’| MacArthur about 20,000 in his Bataan stronghold. He probably has more than that, since J'ilipino levies undoubtedly have augmented his forces. Around a nucleus of perhaps 2500 United States soldiers there are Filipinos of {he constabulary with United States officers and Filipino troops with their own officers.

Relies On Guerrillas

Outside Bataan, there are “islands” of Filipino guerrillas in many sections, such as the 20,000 Moro Bolo fighters ¢n Mindanao. The total of such guerrilla bands may be as high as 50,000. They are important to Gen. MacArthur because they prevent the Japanese from concentrating solely on Corregidor. | They also will be important in the plan Gen. cArthur has worked out for the eventual re-conquest of the islands.

Can’t Hold Indefinitely

_ Gen. MacArthur wants to hold out on Bataan penne as long as possible and then retire to Corregidor fortress as|a base for an eventual offensive, if and when the Pacific lines of communication can be re-opened by naval action and reinforcements ¢an reach him. Gen; MacArthur knows he will riot

be able to hold out indefinitely on Bataan. When he falls back on Corregidor it will be simply a matter of siege. Gen. MacArthur is following a strategy which he championed for years. As far back as 1931, when he was chief of staff, he advocated a war of movement by smalls maneuverable forces and deprecated trench warfare. He has heen using only a modified form of the latter when conditions on Bafaan call for it. He spread his troops across the peninsula and kept a fluid line. He fought a war of movement, refusing to throw up any single line of defense and dig in behind it.

Flanks Protected

When the Japanese with their superior numbers struck at any one point of the line, he let them through, then closed in on them behind his lines and cut them off. Thus he prevented his flanks from being bent back. He was able to prevent the Japanese from landing in his rear, and crushing him from two sides, as they did to the British in Malaya. Gen. MacArthur's artillery, his 155’s and 75's, have played a big role in his defense. The Japanese facing him had not encountered real artillery opposition before. His scouting and espionage service was excellent. The Japanese were not able to pull any surprise tricks. Their fifth columnists had been taken care, of long before

FARMS RAPPED

House Committee Blasts At Indiana Defense

Relocation Corp.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, March 2—The

an organization sponsored by the FSA, was included today in the ‘house appropriations committee attack on a program it termed as resembling “the practice of collective farming in Communist Russia.” Large scale land purchases and the establishment of collective farms by the farm security administration in Indiana and 17 other states would be halted by provisiops of the agricuiture appropriations bill presented the house today by the committee. The committee also denounced government “manipulation” of commodity markets to control farm commodity prices.

Organized to Buy Land

The Indiana Defense Relocation Corp. is comprised of regional and state FSA officers and was organized to purchase 17,500 acres in Benton, Warren, Knox and Tippecanoe counties to be used for settling 205 farm families dislocated by the establishment of munitions plants, But this practice, as well as the formation of further projects such as the FSA. collective farm near Vincennes, would be specifically banned in. the bill by a provision which prevents any of the money appropriated to be used: 1. For the purchase of land or for the carrying on of any land purchase program. 2. For the carrying on of any experiment in collective farming except for the liquidation of any such projects already started. , 3. For making lonas to any individual farmers in excess of $2500.

Almost $12,000,000

Committee hearings on the bill disclosed that the agency was buying a total of 372,300 acres in 18 states at a cost of almost $12,000,000. The committee charged the experiments in collective . farming are “wholly contrary to the spirit and genius of the American way of life.” The committee recommended direct appropriations for the agriculture department in the fiscal year beginning July 1 of $677,181,239, representing a reduction of more than $450,400,000 below the appropriation for the present fiscal year.

DEMOCRAT TO END LIQUOR POST FIGHT

The appointment to the Marion county liquor board, over which two Republican members of. the board of cointy commissioners have been deadlocked for more than a week, was expected to be settled today—by a Democrat. Republican Commissioner William T. Ayres is standing pat for the reappointment of Charles Meischke Jr.,"West side grocer, and Commissioner William Bosson, also a Republican, is demanding that Robert S. Smith, Republican attorney be appointed. Neither will compromise on the appointment, thus placing Harry Hohlt, Democratic minority ccmmissioner, in control of the situation.

POSTS . TRANSFERRER

Dr. John J. Briggs, who was ap-| pointed by Republican county com- | missioners as county health commissioner Jan. 1, has been tran ferred to the post of jail hyn) by the commissioners. Dr. A. M. Hetherington, who has been jail physician since Jan, 1, has been appointed county health commissioner. No reason was given by commissioners for the change. It was reported, however, that factional pressure in the Republican party had something to do with it.

inert Air Cell Protects Home Against Heat,

Cold and Fire.

The insulating principles of the inert air cell has been the most important discovery in recent years to add to the comfort of the. home-owner, according to H. L. Parsons of the Capitol Rock Wool Co., 655 E. 42d st. “Scientists discovered this cell in its most tangible and efficient state in remote and dangerous volcanic countries,” Mr. Parsons said. “Rock, subjected to the intense heat of the volcano, was melted until it flowed like water. “Then, terrific underground steam pressure caused the molten mass to erupt violently. As the spray of liquid rock struck the cool air, it again solidified into fibrous particles. Thus, nature created rock wool.” Mr. Parsons pointed out that scientists went to work to see if this unusual material could be produced artificially and economically. The natural interlacing of the rock wool fibers caused by the volcanic eruption created millions of minute inert air cells in each cubic inch. Hundreds of experiments resulted in failure. * “Then,” said Mr. Parsons, “they hit upon the idea of a manmade volcano. A huge cone, fired by 3000 degrees of heat, melted the rock, Terrific steam pressure was then applied to this molten mass. High into the air flew the clean, white, fluffy fibers—rock wool. From there, it was only a short step to mass production of the material. “Tests applied to the new prodduct showed that it retained the inert air cell formation, yet every trace of impurity was gone. “The average house is surrounded by more than 1500 cubic feet of live, circulating air within the hollow walls and roof and it affords no resistance to the passage of heat or cold or to the spread of flames. “Capitol rock wool fills these’ live air spaces, blocking the circulation of air, thus preventing the passage of heat and cold. It also acts as an effective fire stop. “The inert air cells found in Capitol rock wool home insulation render it heat-resistant, cold-resistant, fire-proof, soundresistant, non-corrosive, odorless and clean. If will perform all of these functions perfectly as long as the house stands, and without one cent of operating or maintenance expense. “Capitol rock wool home insulation can be installed at a surprisingly low cost and soon pays for itself in fuel savings.”
