Chandler Asks Planes, Men For MacArthur
Washington, (INS)—Sen. A. B. Chandler of Kentucky today appealed to government and military leaders to give Gen. Douglas MacArthur enough planes, men and munitions "to carry the fight" to Japan in the Southwest Pacific. Chandler warned that Russia and England may leave this country to fight alone against the Japs once Germany is crushed.
At the same time, the Senator, an administration Democrat who headed a special congressional committee which investigated American defense in Alaska, told the Senate that the Jaws have built airfields on Attu and Kiska in the Aleutians from which they can bomb west coast cities and possibly invade the American continent.
The Kentuckian expressed deep concern over concentration of planes troops in the Southwest Pacific by the Japanese. He called on government and military leaders to recognize the "deadly seriousness of the Japanese menace to the people of the United States." He bluntly stated that "the war against Japan is no second class war," and added:
"We must carry the fight to the enemy."
American Flag Goes To Oregon to Get Thirty-Second Star
San Francisco, (INS)—An American flag that eventually will rest in the Smithsonian Institute was on its way to Oregon yesterday after having its 31st star, representing California, sewn on by a direct descendant of Betsy Ross.
California's star was added to the historic banner's blue field by Mrs. Paul Revere Biswell of the Oakland chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, a great, great, granddaughter of Betsy Ross.
The flag was started on its round of the states by the Sons of the American Revolution for each commonwealth to add a star in the order it entered the union. Oregon will add the 32nd star.
Legion Commander Returns
Roane Waring, national commander of the American Legion, returned to the United States today after visiting the North African battlefields.

Size of Map Halfs On Eisenhower's Wall As Axis Retreat
Allied Headquarters in North Africa, (INS)—The clearest picture of the manner in which Axis forces are being hemed in in Tunisia was given yesterday by a wall map hung up in the war correspondents' room of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's headquarters.
At one time, the map took up virtually the whole wall, with multi-colored pins and red string stretching from near the ceiling to the floor.
When the British Eighth Army joined with American forces, the map was cut almost in half. Today it was cut again as the Allies pushed steadily forward. The map is now one-quarter its original size.
Q. How many coowners of a Bond can there be?
A. War Bonds may be issued in the names of only two individuals as coowners, and the registration must be in the alternative, such as "John X. Smith or Mrs. Mary Smith," without any qualifying words or phrases.
Q. If a person who already holds War Savings Bonds up to the limit for the current year should inherit additional Bonds, could they be registered in his name?
A. Yes.
Q. How can I be sure that I can get my money back if I buy a War Savings Bond?
By Gib Crockett
A. The full faith and credit of the United States Government are pledged for payment of both principal and interest. Your Bond is just as sound as the Government itself.
A. In the absence of a coworker or beneficiary in the registration, the bond will form a part of the registered owner's estate, and will be paid to persons entitled to share in the estate under local laws as provided in the regulations.
Gustafson
Q. If the owner of a War Savings Bond dies, how is collection made?

"Sold" Balloon
London, (INS)—Two American soldiers who "bought" a barrage balloon from a civilian so that they could float it over their hut woke up today to the fact that they had overlooked an important detail in making the purchase.
The soldiers, according to the army newspaper, Stars and Stripes, had just emerged from one of the popular English pubs when the barrage balloon caught their fancy. They were, it seems, slightly "pub-happy."
The soldiers returned to camp balloonless but wiser. Next time they will consult the ground crew first. Apparently the boys never heard the story about Brooklyn bridge.
An obliging civilian "sold" them the balloon, but the ground crew in charge refused to make delivery.
Tunisian Campaign Nears Final Phase, Says Henry Stimson
Washington, (INS)—Secretary of War Henry Stimson said yesterday that the final phase of the Tunisian campaign appears to be drawing near, with American and British forces pushing a piston attack against an estimated 200,000 Axis troops.
"The allied troops in Tunisia have cornered the Axis forces into a small triangle which will undoubtedly be the scene of bitter fighting," Stimson said.
Hazers' Friends Are Back in School After Blowing off Steam'
St. Louis, (INS)—About 100 students of the Pattonville high school in St. Louis county who stayed out of class until after noon yesterday "blowing off steam," as their superintendent, M. A. Holman, put it, were back in school yesterday.
