west Pacific. British Repulse Japs

A German transocean dispatch from Shanghai quoted Yoji Hirota, . identified as the Japanese embassy spokesman, as saying that the allies are unable to reinforce Australia and India against a coniing Japanese thrust because of the policy . of trying to knock out Germany ~~ first. On the fighting fronts, the British ' repulsed another Japanese effort to diode them from the Mayu pen- : “insula in Burma, reporting that at“tacks had been thrown back after brisk fighting. It was the second “futile Japanese try this week. + Gen. MacArthur’s bombers scored direct hits on a 2000-ton Japanese cargo ship in the Arafura sea yesterday, following up successful at‘tacks on two other: vessels in the same general area. A reconnaissance flier reported discovery of what. appeared to be a new Jap- . anese’ landing strip.at Dyaul island, |’ sotth of New Ireland, ‘possibly one of those developed for the expected Japanese ‘attack toward Australia. In China, a slackening of the Japanese offensive in the Taihung mountains on the Hunan-Shansi border was reported.

REVISE STANDARDS .ON CHEDDAR CHEESE

WASHINGTON, April 29 (U. P. . —Revision of regulations of cheese standards was announced today by the war food administration which published tentative new standards for grades of American cheddar. ; The food distribution administration is buying large quantities of cheddar cheese for export to the united nations so it is essential that dt be purchased on the basis of >. grades that will. assure maintenance of satisfactory quality during the considerable period of ship‘ment, handling and distribution. Hence, it was stated, the tentative standards are designed to rearrange and revise the specifica‘tions now being used by the in- “ spection service. They will not significantly change the present procedure of grading cheese.

will grow. To top it off, surplus beans allowed to ripen and dry will make a substantial contribution to the family’s food supply next winter. ‘There is a type of bean for every space and use. ' In general, the bush types are easier to grow and are preferred to pole type. Where poles are available, however, or where a backyard fence or corn stalks can be used as a support, the pole type may be used to good advantage. In both bush and pole beans there are varieties having green pods and others having wax or yellow pods. The shape of the pod in cross section may be flat, oval or round. - The pods vary in length and straightness, Snap beans growing from 15 to 24 inches high are called bush beans. These yield their crops in two or at most, three pickings. Recommended varieties include stringless green pod, bountiful, pencil pod, black wax, brittle wax, tendergreen, U. S. 5 and refugee. For continuous supply, plant bush beans at three-week intervals until about Aug. 1. One and one-half pounds of seed, planted not more than one-half inch deep and four inches apart in the row, are needed for 100 feet of row. This will produce in the neighborhood of one and one-half bushels of beans, or enough for approximately 30-pint cans. ; Beans making vines six to 10 feet long are called pole beans and must be supported. They continue to yield over a period of several weeks. If pole type beans are used, one planting in May and enother in July will be sufficient. Kentucky - Wonder is a popular pole type. It requires about 75 days

The early types will mature in .70 to 85 days. Sow the seeds & ‘week or two after the first planting of snap beans. Limas need a warmer soil to start well. They are not likely to thrive anywhere if planted in wet soil or covered too deeply. In light, sandy soil, cover from one to two inches; in heavy soil, cover one inch or less. The Carolina or Sieva variety, the butter bean of the South, can be relied on for good yields and is recommended for victory garden use. Good bush varieties also include baby potato or baby fordhook. Beans are a very tender crop easily injured by cold weather. They should be planted after all danger of frost is passed. ' In Indianapolis that means about the middle of May. Do not cultivate beans when the plants are wet from dew or rain. Spreading water may cause spread of disease. To control the Mexican bean beetle, which attacks all types of bush and pole beans, dust must be blown up against the under surface of the leaves, beginning as

~ Score of 4-1 in Tunisia, _ Stinison Reports. ¥ | WASHINGTON, April 29 (U. P). —=Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson declared today that allied airplanes are running up a score of approximately 4 to 1 against the enemy in the Tunisian battle area. “No enemy can stand such losses indefinitely,” he said. From March 29 to April 24 they destroyed 859 axis combat planes and 205 f{ransports—a total of 1064 —with a loss of 270 allied

planes. In the North Pacific in a 30-day interval American planes. have dropped qver 1,000,000 pounds of bombs, high explosives and incendiaries on” Japanese bases at Kiska and Attu. He also said that complete reports now being assembled of Amer-

jean daylight attacks on Germany

indicated that the damage greatly exceeded what was initially reported. Allied ground forces in Tunisia have been making slow but satisfactory progress in the face of strong enemy resistance, he said, and “there is no indication of any major evacuation of axis forces.” “In the southwest Pacific the tension has eased somewhat,” Stimson continued. “The Japanese have not repeated their recent heavy raids, probably because they found them too costly.” He said the number of enemy planes and surface vessels observed in that area Bas declined somewhat in the past two weeks but there was still a possibility that the Japanese would undertake an offensive there. He said Gen. Douglas MacArthur would continue to be supplied with planes and supplies against any possible enemy action. imson, back from an inspection tour of military installations in the south and west, disclosed he had witnessed a “full armored force attack with service ammunition carried out in mud which would have immobilized our forces a year ago.” He said it had been raining for days at Fort Knox, Ky. where the demonstration was staged.

CHARGE FCC REPLY ‘WHITEWASHES’ AIDES

WASHINGTON, April 29 (U. P.). —Members of the house appropriations committee today charged that the federal communications commission sought to “whitewash” two FCC officials who were accused of subversive activity by the ‘committee. The FCC, in a formal statement, praised two of its political analysts —Dr. Goodwin B. Watson and William E. Dodd Jr.—whom an appro-

fit for the present to continue/in government employment.” Further, the FCC said it “found no basis” for their dismissal. “The character of the FCC’s investigation of these men will be

BRITISH HURL .BACK NEW JAP ATTACKS

NEW DELHI, April 29 (U. P.).— New Japanese lunges at British lines in the Arakan sector of Burma have been thrown back after brisk fighting, a communique reported today. The main front lines were unchanged, the communique said. It was the second attack that has been repulsed this week and represented a continuation of Japanese attempts to dislodge the British from the Mayu peninsula, Air forces supporting ground troops lambasted the Mayu Ridge area and an occupied village, while other planes demolished several buildings inside a fortified stockade at Pinlebu in the upper Chindwin area.

WATCH CHILD DIET, WARNS RED CROSS

WASHINGTON, April 29 (U. P.). —“Wartime jitters” are taking their toll of American children, the Red Cross nutrition service warned today. Pointing out that many mothers are working in war jobs, Miss Melva Bakkie, director of the nutrition service, said that frequent colds, irritability, peevishness and disobedience in children are often the end product of hasty and sketchy meals served at irregular hours.

Earache

Earache is a symptom that follows infection or swelling in or about the ear or in the canal leading to the ear. It can be very painful and occurs most frequently among children, whose misery when

of comfort and sleep.

The eardrum is a thin membrane which lies between the middle ear and the outside. It is necessary to maintain an equal pressure on

both sides of the ear drum. The outside air provides the external pressure. The internal pressure is provided through the eustachian tube, a small passage that leads from the : throat to the i middle ear. : Sudden changes in the pressure exfrom the outside, such as eccur in going up or landing in an airplane, must be equalized by increasing or decreasing the pressure in the middle ear. It is to accomplish this end that chewinggum is employed by fliers to keep the eustachian canal patient.

Infection. May Be Cause Infections arising in the nose and throat, however, may follow the same course. Most earaches of shorter duration, that subside spontaneously, , represent -inflammation or swelling of the eustachjan canal. Because that canal is surrounded by unyielding bone, very slight swelling produces

pain. The type of earache here de-

BELGIAN TROOPS JOIN ALLIES IN MID-EAST

silitis, sore throat, or sinus infection, and aside from the discomfort involved, it is entirely benign and self-limiting, An extension of infection into the middle ear, with the presence of pus causing the eardrum to bulge, brings on an altogether different sityation—and requires professional care. May Need Physician In such instances, the pain is not relieved by simple means, and the body temperature is higher. The condition can be recognized by an inspection of the eardrum with a good light and finding it red and bulging. Such a condition necessitates an incision in the eardrum and the release of the pus. This action relieves the pain ptomptly and prevents infection from spreading into the mastoid region, with all its serious sequences. When an earache begins, apply heat to the ear (hot water bottle or electric pad). Then place two or three drops of warm glycerin or 1 per cent phenol in glycerin in the ear and take an aspirin tablet. If the pain is not improved in an hour or two, it may mean that there is pus behind the eardrum, and professional care should be sought.
