South Pacihe—Tiiia picture skowt some of the devaatatioa U. S. bombers
have caused in Japan’s big shipping and air base of Rabaul, feoder point for
enemy forces operating in New Guinea and the Solomaaa. la a recent attack,
fighter planes from aircraft carriers protected land-based bombers in their
assaults on Rabaul.
Their footing on the southwest shore of Bougainville secure, U. S. troops
ware being re-enforced for their push inland against the 40,000 Japs raportedly
clingiug to their last major stronghold in tha Solomons. The U. S, brought
fighter planes into the nctioa to bomb and machina gun eaamy positiona
hawn into tha jungle.
Since PenrI Harbor, a naval spokasmaa reported 67 U. S. warships snnkt

ITALY:
Fighting See-Satvs
Fighting in the mountains see
sawed in TOuthem Italy as the Ger-
mans cleared sections onhe west
coast to the north in anticipation of
Allied landings from fleets which
they reported yere massed in Na-
ples. . ^
Bitter flghting marked the moun
tain warfare in the Mignano region,
where the Germans were guarding
the pass leading into the level plain
stretching approximately 80 miles
to the north to Rome.
One U. S. company alone used 500
hand grenades in the close, rough
encounters along the«rocky slnpps.
Anchored in six-foot-deep tunnels se
curely thatched with heavy timbers
and sand bags, the Nazis held strong
positions, relatively secure from
dive-bombings or artillery fire, but
sometimes open to attacks from the
side or rear.
SUBSIDIES:
Fight On
With other branches of agricul
ture, representatives of the livestock
trade spearheaded the attack against
the administration’s subsidy pro
gram* before senate Tgnculture
committee. On November 1, Presi
dent Roosevelt had called on con
gress to continue government pay
ments to encourage production and
reduce consumer costs through re
tail price reductions, announcing the
program now runs the U. S. 8(X) mil
lion dollars annually.
Frank Boic4» of the American Live
stock association told the senate
committee subsidies for reducing re
tail meat prices will save, the con
sumer barely $2 annually. P. O.
Wilson o£ the joint livestock com-
mUtee declared cattlv producers
were never consulted on establish
ment of meat price ceilings.
Opposition to subsidies also was'
■ registered by the Grocery Manufac
turers of America, representative of
85 per cent of the nation’s pr^
eased food producers. The organiza
tion stated that price control of its
products on a subsidy basis was un
sound because the cost would have
to be repaid in taxation, plus ad
ministration expense of the pro
gram,

WHISKY BUSINESS:
Senate to Investigate
Charged with hoarding whisky
st(^k8_ evade _yixaUQa and caisa
prices, big distillers
were to be called to
Washington, D. C.,
before a senate sub-
cbnfthiltee to ex
plain alleged short
ages despite report
ed inventories of five
or six years.
Said Senator Fred
erick Van Nuys, In-
' diana: “We know
I that some of the big
j corporations, which
i have been buying up
I little distilleries, are
i keeping liquor in the
! warehouses eight or
! ten years, when
! most liquor does not age percepti
bly after four years.”
Senator Van Nuys said other
phases of the investigation will con
cern the practice of distilleries sell
ing inventories to stockholders, and
the alleged mixture of straight
whisky with 70 per cent neutral
spirits for sale under strange brand
names to evade price ceilings.
AGRICULTURE:
Assured of Fertilizer
As manufacturers, the army and
Teqnessef Valley authority have en
tered into an agreement with the
War Production board to supply
625,000 tons of nitrogen for agricul
ture for the 1943-'44 season.
Under the-agreement, the army
>will realize $47.50 per ton on the
nitrogen 6n an f.o.b. basis, with
TVA selling the fertilizer. In cer
tain southern slates. Associated Co
operatives, Inc., win act as distribu
tors, and in all other states east ol
the Rocky mountains, TVA will sell
the product through brokers desig
nated by WPB.
To manufacture the nitrogen, the
army will operate its tnarginRl fa
cilities for arhmortium nitrate, and
TVA will furnish specifications for
the conditioning materials necessary
for a fertilizer nitrate.

Hog Marketing
With 'a 1943 spring pig crop of
74,050,(X)0, the government is mak
ing every effort to a,ssure an orderly
marketing of hogs and prevent
heavy runs in December and Janu
ary. To achieve this end, industry
representatives have banded into
conunittees at 14 key terminal cen
ters to advise prodqpers on ship
ments. As a further ’aid, the War
Food administration will release
tparketing instructions through
press and radio.
Complicating the marketing sitafi-
tion is the fact thaf the record pig
crop must be. handled in th»lace of
strained transportation facilities and
manpower shortages. Storage of the
pork and by-products for civilian,
military and lend-lease use also will
tax refrigerator capacity.
It is pointed out that orderly mar
keting will assure producers of 200
to 270-pound weights of the mini
mum government support price of
$13.75, Chicago basis.

Farmers Urged To
Get Fertilizer Now
The fertilizer situation for the
coming spring does not seem to be
so much a problem of raw material
supplies as it is a matter of actually
getting delivery Into the hands of
the farmer.'
. The United States Department of
Agriculture feels that there will be
ample stocks of fertilizer available
for all crop needs provided the con
sumer will lake delivery when the
manufacturer has. It ready tox ship.
Last year labor shortages and
transportation difficulties prevented a>
great many growers from getting
their fertilizer in time and quite a fewi
did not get any at all. This year the I
situation promises to be even more'
severe so the War Food Adlnistra-
tlon is advising the farmhr to play
safe and get bis fertilizer storea on
the farm now.
If he waits until spring to take
delivery, as is his usual custom, the
chances are he^^is. not going to get
fertilizer in time for planting. It
matters little If the manufacturer has
plenty of fertilizer In his plant If labor
and transporutlon difficulties kefep
him from putting it Into bags and
getting It deUver§d_ta. the farm.
