RESUME OF THE PAST WEEK ON THE WAR FRONT (Continued from Page One) .turning out secret weapons. Director Odium of the OPM j Contract Distribution Division j saie%a plan has been prepared to set aside one percent of all available materials to assist small manufacturers in keeping their plants going until they can be converted to war use. He said the nation’s entire production facilities —all of those “hidden away in thousands of cities and towns and villages”—must in the total war effort. He asked all mayors ;to have their manufacturer in their cities register at the nearest OPM Contract Distribution Division field office and to "go after war contracts with every ounce of ingenuity and energy they possess.” The War Front The Navy Department reported the sinking of five enemy vessels in Far Eastern waters—three transports and two large cargo ships. ’jf’he announcement brought to 25 the total of Japenese vessels reported definitely sunk by the Navy and Marine Corps in the Pacific. The Navy also announced two allied merchant vessels were attacked by Axis submarines off Long Island. Throughout the week Gen. MacArthur reported heavy land and air fighting in the Philippines but said American and Philippine troops were putting up effective resistance and U. *S. losses were low. - JR Army War Secretary Stimson announced the Army will be increasell from the present total of ’ 1,700,000 men to 3,600,000 men this year. Combat ,air units and armored units will be doubled: 32 motorized divisions will be added, and at least 50 mile military police (Units for guarding production facilities will be created. Instead of the originally scheduled 10,000. more than 90,000 privates will be selected to attend officer-training schools. All training centers, and posts will be enlarged and five temporary tent camps will be set up. To make 2,000,000 more men eligible, the Army will lower age limits for aviation cadets from 20 to 18 years, make married men eligible, and change educational .qualifications by eliminatnig college credit requirements. Selective Service Director Hershey said the Army increase could be accomplished without calling up men with dependents. He said there are now 1,000,000 men in class 1-a but not yet

called, and 900,000 more men can be obtained by reclassification of other men and from those men who will register February 16. He said deferment cases would be re-examined but deferments will continue to be given where possible to avoid undue disruption of family life. He said married men with one or more children probably will not be called until an Army of 7,000,000 to 8,000,000 has been built. He estimated 10,000,000 is the top number of men the U. S. could mobilize for service even with lowered physical standards. * Labor Disputes The President abolished .the National Defense Mediation BoSrd and established a National War Board with NDMB Chairman Davis as Chairman. Four commissioners will represent the public, four will represent employees and four, industry. The new board has -wider authority than the old Board and can arbitrate or mediate disputes as it sees fit except that it cannot disregard existing labor legislation. The Maritime War Emergency Board established war bonuses for sailor on merchant ships. Autos i The OPA announced auto rationing would begin February 2 in the same manner as tire rationing, Os the 202,000 cars 'in the industry quota for January, about 150,000 cars will be stored with dealers who promise not to sell without permission—probably not to be granted before January, 1943—and then only at OPA-established prices. OPA issued a schedule of prices for “retreadable” tire carcases and “retreads” and forecast a ceiling over all used tires “in the very near future.” Federal Loan Administrator Jones announced plans to increase synthetic rubber production capacity to 400.000 tons by pooling of resources and skills of the rubber and oil industries if priorities can b.e obtained on steel needed to erect plants. OPA Administrator Henderson said tire rationing would probably not be affected because of increasing military needs for rubber. o Censorship

Censorship Director Price, after consultation with newspaper, magazine and periodical editors, announced a code of conduct which publications were asked to follow in handling information in order to prevent information of a military nature reaching the enemy. Prohibited, unless officially released, are most details of military, naval or industrial establishments, casualty lists, damages to war facilities, movements of troops and ships, weather reports except of certain types, and movements of the President or of official military or diplomatic missions. Agriculture Agriculture Secretary Wickard
