Hence diplomats inclined themselves to point to the third part of Stalin's statement on Russian war potential after more than 15 months of one of the most terrible wars in history.

WPB Simplifies Work Clothes

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5 (U. P.). —American war workers soon will make the acquaintance of a new label on their work clothes, the letter “8,” which' will indicate compliance with the WPB order for simplification of work clothes, the office of price administration has disclosed. “Look forcolor fastness guaran-

tees on the types of garments

which have carired"them in the past, and unless the garment is guaranteed not to shrink more than one or two per cent, play safe and buy one size larger than usual,” the OPA said.

CHUNGKING, Oct. § (U.

ALLIES NEARING MOUNTAIN TOPS

Japs Continue Retreat in New Guinea; Now 72 Mi. From Port Moresby.

GEN» MacARTHUR'S HEADQUARTERS, Australia, Oct. 6 (U. P.).—Australian forces are nearing

the backbone of the Oweh Stanley mountains of New Guinea after taking Efogi village, last important Japanese base on the southern side of the range, it was announced today. From the farthest point of a Japanese advance toward the allied base of Port Moresby on the south New Guinea coast the Australians had pushed back the Japanese roughly 40 road miles to reach a point abqut 72 road ‘miles from Moresby. Entering the second week of the most important allied offensive operation of the war in Gen. Douglas MacArthur's zone, the Australians had not yet contacted the steadily retreating enemy main forces.

Japs Abandon Equipment

But they had started overtaking stragglers and continued to capture hastily abandoned Japanese equipment. t Efogi, the Australians split their forces to cover the .double trail leading up toward the hump of the mountains, one by way of Kagi, three trail miles from Efogi, the other by way of Lake Myola, six trail miles away. Douglas A-20 attack bombers softened the way with a heavy bombing raid on Efogi, Kagi and Myola village. Curtiss fighters machine gunned the Japanese rear communications on the no side of the mountains. In the “only offensive activity outside the New Guinea zone, Consolidated medium bombers raided the enemy airdrome on Buka island, northern-most of the Solomons, by night and without meeting aerial opposition, starting fires and causing explosions on the runway and in dispersal areas. At least one enemy grounded plane was destroyed.

DAIRY FARMERS SEE

CHICAGO, Oct. 5 (U. P.).—Mid=western dairy farmers sent a warning .to the nation’s farm and manpower leaders today that unless the critical farm labor shortage is relieved in short order the country faces a prospect of a 25 per cent reduction in milk production next year. . The United Dairy committee, representing 1000 dairy farmers in nine states, sounded the warning in a letter addressed to President Roose velt, Draft Director Lewis B. Hershay, Manpower Chief Paul V. McNutt and Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard.

would place sharp restrictions over the sale of dwelling: units. He said present = regulations would be amended to limit future property transactions to bonda fide sales. There is in presently controlled rent, areas, he said, a growing practice of owners forcing tenants to purchase the premises—in many cases at exoritant - prices. This practice, he said, is designed. to avoid the effect of rent control and to collect from the existing tenant or a new occupant monthly installments in excess of maximum rents. Prevent Property Sales , Officials ‘said complhints - have come from Mobile, Ala. Philadelphia, Portland, Ore. Detroit, and other cities having housing pgoblems. ; : Henderson said the government's objective would be to prevent owners from “dropping rental property on the market merely to avoid the requirements of rent control.” Officials withheld interpretation of the move pending examination of the amendment to determine what, in the determination of OFA, will constitute a bona fide sale, Henderson said landlords who have raised rents since March 1, should, as patriotic citizens, make reductions to prevent levels. But he warned that OPA would establish enforcement machinery “as rapicly as in administratively possible.” More Food Under Control

emphasized the severity of the new economic program. The new order will stabilize rents of all dwelling units in the expanded area at the

defense-rental areas, where the 1941 level was used as a yardstick, since

June 1. Stabilization of* wages and salaries

on Sept. 15 will be undertaken through use of the war labor board's present machinery. Davis said he expected to see Byrnes soon to discuss the entire wage picture. President Roosevelt's directive on the cost-of-living program gave Byrnes control over. all compensations over $5000 a year and authorized him to disapprove any increase ovér that figure except where “more difficult or responsible work” was involved. Byrnes would not say what his first moves would be.
