Severe air fighting developed in

the Kuban area, with formations|

of 12 to 15 German bombers attacking the advanced Soviet units. Soviet fighters intercepted snd shot down six bombers and the Black sea fleet air arm heavily attacked enemy bases and front lines, destroying 11 planes on the ground and shooting down a dozen others. Several more towns on the Taman peninsula have fallen to Soviet forces pushing German troops back against the Black sea and Sea of Azov, the mid-day communique said. On other fronts the Russians consolidated newly won positions and beat off minor counter-attacks. Nowhere was there any essential change in the lines.

~ JAP SHIPS BOMBED AT NEW IRELAND

MacARTHUR'S HEADQUARTERS, Australia, April 3 (U. P.)— A big force of heavy bombers, striking to choke off Ja ese supplies at basic shipping points, showered explosives among 13 ships lying off Kavient harbor, on the northern tip of New Ireland, a communique said today. The attack occurred at dusk Thursday. Darkness prevented a definite accounting of the result but two ships, a 10,000, and a 6000 tonner, probably were hit. The smaller vessel was settling in the water as the fliers wheeled to leave. ; Several light cruisers and deyers were among the pack, the fliers reported. The U. S. planes had to come in through fierce tropical storms to reach their targets and struck a heavy anti-aircraft barrage when they got there.

This group is a part of a larger mass of 14,000 Jewish and non-Jewish Poles who wandered for three years through Soviet Russia, some of them from as far as Siberia, and who were bogged down in Teheran, Iran, when Jews were refused transit through Iraq to reach Palestine.

“Many private homes in Palestine are being opened for the young children, ranging from infancy upward. For adolescents, places approved by the British authorities will be found in agricultural settlements and trade schools.” Mrs. Goodman explained that the Polish children were 80 per cent orphaned, or separated from their parents by a series of cruel happenings. She said that some were actually abandoned by desperate mothers and fathers. She quoted a statement of Henrietta Szold, American-born founder of Hadassah, who has been organizing relief efforts for children in Palestine: “The hope of rescuing the Jewish childfen of Europe from the declared intention of the Nazis to exterminate them and their parents immediately, is to snatch as many as we can from Hitler's grasp wherever and however possible.” To help provide funds for that, Hadassah here is having its seventh luncheon. Inez M. Lowdermilk ‘of Washington, wife of the assistant. chief of the soil conservation bureau of the department of agriculture, will speak. The daughter of a Methodist minister, she lived for eight years after her marriage in the Near East, including Palestine, and saw the reclamation of old lands by Jewish colonists there. Mrs. Shoolem Ettinger is president of the local Hadassah chapter. Mrs. David Sablosky is the luncheon chairman, assisted by Mrs. Max co-chairman.

POULTRY RATION

Wartime Living—

NOT SCHEDULED

OPA Plans to Leave List in Present Form in Spite - Of Clamor.

WASHINGTON, April 3 (U. P).~— The office of price administration does not plan to ration additional foods at present despite Midwestern demands for rationing of poultry. “There is a persistent clamor, particularly from the Middle West, that we ration poultry,” an OPA spokesman said, “but at the moment we are not considering it.” "He said that other sections of the countfy had requested rationing of eggs and fresh fish. “It will be difficult to ration poultry, fish or eggs,” he said. “Production is too varied. You can’t reckon

many eggs the hens will lay, or the number of chickens that will reach the ‘pot’ stage.” Dealers Stocked Up

The spokesman also warned against meat dealers who have surplus meat supplies on hand selling their meat below point value. He said a number of cases had been called to his attention where dealers had stocked up before the rationing program started and now find themselves without customers because the customers had stocked up, too. This™ problem, he believed, will iron itself out as soon as the customers need more meat, and supply and demand reach a closer balance. “If a dealer has too much meat on hand, and it looks as if some of it might spoil before he can move it, he can have a point sale,” the spokesman said. “He can apply to his local board for permission to sell below the point value.” : He warned, however, that any dealer selling below point value, or for no points at all, without permission of his local board, was liable to prosecution,

WASHINGTON, April 3.—Gone with the war are those nice steel aspirin boxes, the wooden coat hangers, even the conventional talcum powder tins. ; In their places, at a saving of 215,000,000 pounds of critical metal, 8,000,000 board feet of lumber, are ingenious folding paper boxes which will mark the shape of things to come for the duration.

folding box industry has now completely converted whole- {i salers and retailers to the use of treated paper board, streamlined boxes and peek-a-boo paper packages with smaller cellophane windows.
