invoice and it’s o. k. “He won't say any more about it and you can’t prove anything. The dealer does the same thing. It’s pathetic. We believe that truck load after truck load of chickens are going out of here every day. “Some of these fellows take a truck and scour the countryside. They may offer the farmer a ceiling price, but he knows he can do better than that. So he holds out for more. On broilers there is a 27%-cent maximum to the farmer, but we've heard of cases where they've sold as high as 33 and 35 cents a pound.”
Reports Some Progress
Mp. Johnson said his investigators have made some progress in picking up evidence on possible violations and had corrected many mistakes that were being made. “But the task is so tremendous that we've hardly made a dent,” he added. In Washington the OPA is considering changes in poultry regulations. Just what these will be is not known, but some speculate that retail price ceilings may be rolled back to prevent wholesale buyers from paying above the ceiling. One reason buyers are.able to pay more than 27% cents a pound for live broilers, it was pointed out, is that there is enough margin between that price and the 60-cent retail ceiling price to compensate
for some difference in higher costs.

the dining room. At the head table with the presidents were their wives, Mrs. Elliot Roosevelt, Ambassador and Mrs. George Messersmith, Under Secretary of State Sumner Welles, Mexican Foreign Secretary and Senora Ezequial Padilla and Interior Minister and Senora Miguel Aleman.
~ Ah! Creamed Chicken
Three courses — crema reyna (creamed chicken and almond soup) filete de robalo aurora (filet of sea bass) and mousse de pollu salsa vernesa (chicken with an elaborate sauce) —were served before the time came for the two leaders to go speak.
The presidents sat before a background of red roses. Dinner began with a pone of rare Spanish brandy and quite unlike presidential dinners in the United States, many guests arrived late because of crowded traffic conditions on all roads leading to the “military city.” Among the guests sitting down to dinner with the two presidents were two representatives of independent Mexican labor unions, wearing blue denim overalls. They sat only a few feet away from jeweled wives of Mexican cabinet members. Only the women wore formal dress The men wore business suits. Avila Camacho wore his brilliant green, red and ‘white band of the presidency across his chest. Wine was served throughout the meal, including sauterne, a red wine and champagne.
Mrs. Roosevelt Present
Mrs. Roosevelt stood beside the president while he spoke. Avila Camacho was flanked by brilliantly uniformed aides when he spoke. Both presidents spoke in the white glare of newsreel flood lights and the area in front of the speakers table was thronged by Mexican news photographers and two American camera men who accompanied the president. The hours before dinner were spent in a stormy automobile tour of the city, to which the motorists of Monterrey added excitement by attempting to join the official procession through the simple expedient of driving their cars out of side streets at high speed at the parade and slipping into the openings made as less courageous chauffeurs gave ground. In their radio speeches both presidents offered the good neighbor policy as a model for establishing universal peace.
‘No Mere Truce’
“Our countries do not wish for a mere strategic truce, obtained simply so that the world may again tomorrow fall into the same old faults of ambition, of imperialism, of iniquity and of sordid privilege, » Avila Camacho said. The people of Mexito and the United States, he added, “desire a living together free of the perpetual threats which derive from those who seek supremacy” in the domestic, as well as the foreign field. President Roosevelt denounced the axis attacks as a blow against “our' common heritage as free men,” which he said culminated “in the unspeakable and unprovoked aggressions of Dec. 7, 1941, and May 14, 1942, and the shedding of blood on those dates of citizens of the United States and Mexico alike.” : Mexican Ship Sunk
(May 14, 1942, was the day Mexico announced the sinking of the Protero del Llano, the first Mexican ship sunk by an axis submarine.) “It is time,” Mr. Roosevelt said, “that every citizen in every one of the American republics recognizes that the good neighbor policy means that harm to one republic means harm to every republic. We have, all of us, recognized the priv-
lilege of interdependence—one upon
another.” ‘The president explained, however, that the first axis attacks on the American republics “did not find the western hemisphere unprepared.” “The 21 {free republics of the Americas during the last 10 years have devised a system of international co-operation which has become a. great bulwark in the defense of our heritage and our future,” Mr. Roosevelt said.

800 miles of Tokyo. Halsey had planned to carry the fliers to within 400 miles of Japan, but an encounter with an enemy patrol vessel— which was sunk—spoiled that plan. Doolittle was the first to take off from the Hornet .in one of the specially - equipped, twin - engined North American Mitchell bombers at 8:20 a. m., on April 18, 1942. Shortly, all 16 were in the air headed toward Tokyo after takeoffs in a heavy sea that sent waves over the carrier's bow and forced the pilots to time their take-offs with the upbeat of the flight deck.
The primary objective of the mission—to bomb the Japanese main-| land—was accomplished “with complete success,” the war department said. Not a single American plane was lost in Japan proper. What is more, the war department assures, Tokyo is due to be hit again. Kept Japs on Alert
“If the secrecy (of Shangri-la) could’ always have been kept from the Japanese—which, in the end,
have added to the tension with which Japan awaits the attacks that still lie ahead,” the report sald. Beside its destructive and psychological effects, the war department emphasized, the raid “resulted in freezing within Japan, enemy airplanes and other forces which might have been used in offensive operations elsewhere.” This was one of the deciding factors in the decision to keep details of the American operations a secret for more than a year. This was why President Roosevelt referred to the raid base as “Shangrila,” a mythical place.
Gallant Ship Later Sunk
Months ago the Japanese claimed to know, the secret of Shangri-la.
already had their revenge on that gallant ship, sending her to the bottom in the battle of Santa Cruz on Oct. 26, 1942. Had fate been more kindly, the aftermath of the raid might have been a happier one. But almost from the start, hard luck intervened. After evading two enemy patrol vessels, the Hornet ran into a third, This was 800 miles off Tokyo. The take-off had been planned at a point about 400 miles from the enemy capital. It was to have been just before dark, so that the attack could be carried out at night and the planes could continue on to land at specified Chinese airfields in the morning. But fear that the third patrol vessel, which was sunk, might have radioed a warning caused the immediate launching of the planes— 10 hours ahead of schedule. What happened over Japan has already been told by Doolittle himself. The planes flew in so low— 15 or 20 feet above sea level—that they were almost skimming the wave tops. Then they fanned out,

Upon oy Japan, the scattered airplanes ran into a storm. “Their already depleted gasoline reserves were drained further as they bucked the winds,” the official account said. “Darkness was: coming on and the unfamiliar terrain added to the difficulties. There were no light beacons or landing flares. Unable to go farther, there in the darkness, 6000 to 10,000 feet above a strange land, the great majority of the men bailed out.” Most of the men landed in unoccupied China and succeeded in reaching Chungking. But some less fortunate landed in occupied China. ' This led to the capture of eight. Others managed to make their way out of enemy territory with the aid! of friendly Chinese who hid several of them for long periods. The only person known dead was Cpl. Leland D.Faktor of Plymouth, Iowa, who made a getaway in his | parachtue but may have loser killey by a fall after landing in mo ! tainous territory. His body was found later.

One of the planes piloted by Lit. Ted W. Lawson of Los Angeles,’ Cal, crashed in the China sea within three miles of Japanese forces. Cpl. David J. Thatcher of Billings, | Mont., was cited for his initiative and courage in tending his companions. “Thatcher, although badly cut on the head and momentarily knocked unconscious when the plane hit the sea and turned over, nevertheless swam back to secure the medical; kit from the crushed plane,” the! war department said. “He was the| only one physically able to carry it. | The war department credits Thatcher with saving all of His companions from capture or death. The war department said that the’ preoccupation in bringing American fliers to safety was a principal rea-, son why no detailed statement was
issued after the raid.

German Marshal Erwin Rommel still holds a formidable string of ridges north of Enfidaville and Djebel Garci which presumably make up his main defenses for Tunis. ‘Mr. Russell said the terrain was the most difficult yet encountered by the 8th army in its 2000-mile pursuit of Rommel’s Afrika Korps from El Alamein, Egypt, and allied observers here warned that any advance would be a slow and tedious business. ‘Rommel is known to have fortifled the hills along the Enfidaville ling with hundreds of guns, including nests of the deadly 88millimeter cannon that have served

Gen. Montgomery chose a moonlight night to launch his Enfidaville offensive, even as he did to open his attacks on the Alamein and Mareth lines. By coincidence, it also was the eve of Adolf Hitler's birthday. The opening of the offensive first was disclosed in a special announcement released by allied headquarters at 9:10 p. m. last night which said merely that the 8th army had penetrated the Enfidaville positions and that heavy fighting was continued. On the western side of the enemy’s Tunisian bridgehead, today’s communique said, the British 1st army under Lt. Gen. Kenneth A. Anderson made a ‘“small local advance”. in the Medjez El Bab sector 30 miles southwest of Tunis.
