By United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 22-War Production Board Chairman Donald M. Nelson said here that the fighting men in Western Europe after the cross-Channel invasion may resemble the recent fighting on the Russian front when the Red Armies "had to pulverize one Nazi stronghold after another in order to advance." "A fierce and extended engagement lasting for months may be required to give the death blow to Hitlerism," he said.
That prospect, he told the Conference of Mayors, means that any large diversion at this time of men, materials and facilities to new civilian construction cannot be allowed because it "might hamper er us in a war emergency." Despite pressure which "almost certainly will be exerted on you by your municipalities" to press Washington for permission to use resources that have become idle for civilian construction, Nelson told the mayors that "the harsh truth is that substantial relaxation of existing restrictions on construction at this time would take the nation off the straight line to victory in this war."

REVISED TAG SCALE HELPS 'LITTLE GUY' To Raise Revenue Estimated at $122,187.50. The city, trucking and labor committees have approved for presentation to Council a city hicle tax which City Manager Dempster says will bring in revenue within $11.000 of the original proposal but. will mean a $2 less assessment for "the little Council acceptance granted, the new tax will be effective March 1.

'Golden Chance' To Crush Allies Exists, Quoth Tojo By United Press Premier Hideko Tojo told the Japanese Parliament that Japan has a "golden opportunity" to crush the Allies, that her plane production was increasing but her shipping losses could not be "minimized," Tokyo radio reported. In an hour-long speech, he dealt with military, production and supply problems, the broadcast, recorded by OWI, said. Asking listeners to cling to a "firm faith in final victory" and adding that "there is hair's breadth between final victory and I defeat," Tojo said plane production "is double that of last year" and "is expected to be several times that of the present in the near future." He told the Japanese to be prepared for "the most difficult blows that will become more and more severe" but said the United States and Great Britain can fight only a short war "because of unrest and Obituary Notices ACUFF, HOLLIS CARL-17, 612 Morgan was accidentally killed on the, Southern Railroad yards about 4:30 m.

"WASHINGTON, Jan. 22 In a move unprecedented in all American farm history, a wage control program for agricultural workers, with maximum ceilings of $2400 a year, has been ordered by War Food Administrator Marvin Jones. Aides of the, administrator, who disclosed the plan, said War Food Administration labor offices have been directed to set up state farm wage boards to hold hearings and establish maximum wages. These groups would function much in the manner of the War Labor Board in determining the ceilings for industrial workers. Shortly after the 1942 wage stabilization act, Stabilization Director Fred M.
Vinson put farm wages under the supervision of the WFA but officials did not consider it necessary to take any immediate general action toward control. Farm Wages Up Now, however, farm wages have reached the highest point in 20 years. Many workers have gone into war plants. Those who have remained on the farms have repeatedly received what amounts to a blanket deferment from Selective Service. There are few restrictions on their transfer from one farm to another.
Thus they are in a position to bargain. This, it was disclosed, has played a big part in leading the WFA into the unprecedented wage control program. A recent report of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics stated that in every section of the country farm wages had shown a sharp increase in the previous 12 months. Average Now $63 For the year 1943, wages stood at 264 per cent of the 1910-14 average, and 64 points above said the 1942 level. Present rates are to average $63 a month, with board, compared with $50.91 a year ago with $26 for the 1935-39 average.
The farm wage boards will be instructed to set ceilings only for specific types of work or farm operations for certain designated areas. Cas Walker Says rules and regulations. We are going to try to co-operate, and the local office of the OPA has tried to lend us a helping hand, but Yes, Cas Walker and all of the accused OPA grocery violators want price control, and it is not our intention to have any legal battle with the OPA if it can be avoided. We are willing to be punished for technical and unintentional violations rather than try to cramp the OPA price control program. The compromise on the accused violations was done because we did not want the public to feel that we wanted any, injunction against the OPA, was our intention to violate the OPA these out-of-town OPA investigators sent here prefer charges were, actually try to catch someone in a violation, this is of course in Cas Walker's opinion, and they did succeed in getting a lot of undue publicity for the merchants and restaurant operators.
Frankly, Cas Walker admits that our stores may have had, and did have, more than likely, some prices above the ceiling for our group stores, which is Group No. 3 and No. 4, or the lower price group. Some of our retail prices under this group are less than our wholesale cost, but we had many prices under this ceiling. They will, of course, be raised and the ones that we might have been a fraction over on will be lowered to comply with OPA regulations.
In other words, we are going to co-operate with OPA in every way possible, but we don't like to be termed as law violators when we are doing the very we can. Ninety-four of my best experienced employees have gone into the Armed Services. We are operating our stores with many inexperienced employees we are at the mercy of the public. It you see us violating any OPA rules, please call it to the attention of our store manager. If the customers don't co-operate, a store will few be weeks.

But we have a job to do, and we don't want to be a quitter on the home front, and we will not be unless we keep being antagonized. -Advt.

rate proposal. He later released a press statement in which he said the telephone company has won an outstanding victory over the citizens of Tennessee through practice of "dilatory tactics" for the past two years. Southern Bell took from the people excessive profits through discriminatory rates amounting to $260,000 in 1942 and $376,000 in 1943, he charged. Tennesseans are still having to pay third more all intra-state calls they are charged for comparative interstate service, he said. Deaths Hollis Carl Acuff, 613 Morgan Street.
