Bradley's confidence before the in­vasion when he predicted that the continent could be invaded with­out creating tile bloodbath which the enemy insisted would result and which many persons expected.

Black Market inCostly for Consumei’

Dealers Taking Advan­tage of Tight Beef Supply; Consumer Get­ting Sticking.

the

By James Marlow and George ZIelke

Washington, June 17.—(F)— The worst black market In food now is In meat, mostly beef. The one who gets stuck Is you, the consumer.

’This is what OPA officials says about it:

For the past month—or since almost all meats except beef went off rationing-the black market has been growing. Dealers are taking advantage of th'e tight beef supply.

Here Is an example of how It works:

A wholesaler orders beef from _ slaughterer The latter, for the record, gives the wholesaler, a bill for the meat at the regular price.

Cash Bonus on Side The wholesaler pays that regu­

lar price but then has to pay the slaughterer a cash bonus on the side. .This doesn’t show in the records.

Then the wholesaler repeats the same racket on the retailer, your neighborhood butcher- 'To catch up, the butcher makes you pay In one of three ways:

He sells to you over the ceiling price, with or without your con­nivance; he.-^lves you short weight; or he charges you for a better grade of meat than he sells you.

You ask: Well, why don’t the wholesaler and retailer refuse to take part in this black market?

The answer: ’The slaughterer could refuse to sell any meat at all to a ' Awholesaler who- refused , to play crooked ball with him.

You ask: Well, couldn’t the wholesaler go to another slaugh­terer?

Not Taking New CustomersAnswer: N ot easily and perhaps

noVat all. Because the beef aup- pljTV . tight, slaughterers are not tokingsriew customers.

This aqesn’t mean that all deal- era— slaughterers-, wholesalers and retailers—are. in this black mar­ket. But plent)kare. OPA has had to-step up US­

As to the b lack^arket In gaso­line, OPA officials

They have atopped'^qn Increase In counterfeiting couportqbut this problem may not end (HI war’s end. New counterfeiting rings bob up regularly.

416 Face Federal Court They announced today that re'

porta from 77 of 93 district offices show there were 416 arrests for stealing gas coupons or counter- retting them between April 15 and June 1. A ll were charged In Fed­eral court. Of the 416. there were 143 convictioqs. F ifty of the con­

victed pereoiit were sentenced to Jail.

( All thia Is a drop from the ar­rests and convictions bo the same charges between -Jan. 1 wjd April 16. In that period there were 805 arrests suid 469 convictions.)

I t Is likely that new “ A " cou* pons, bearing serial numbers ^ make counterfeiting more d iffi­cult, will be issued -within the next 45 days. A ll the "B ” and/'C” ,«srda now bear serial number-J- /'

It has Jiappened before this that the plan and advice to be ap­plied to a problem have been sup­plied by pader Statesman Bernard Barucb, and that such planning and advics have been ignored. Mr. Baruch, for instance, was knock­ing on the President's luncheon table with a complete, consistent plan for the control of, InAation long before the President and Con­gress moved into our present sys­tem of InAation control —a system | which has had good results.

The delegates to tha Republican National Convention have mat, and reelected one J. Kenneth Bradley as i^atlonal committee­man from Connectlcift. Curiously enough, this Is the ' identical per­son, name, personality, and C li­tics. , alao reelected Republican State (^airman at the spring con­vention. Strangely further, both reelectlons took place In spite of opposition which claimed to have oppdaite i^ulta guaranteed.

That is, however, a distorted picture. The second of thesdv re- elections toQk place only on the basis of a solemn and gentleman­ly promise from Mr. Bradley that he wo\ild, shortly after the elec­tion results art tabulated next November, resign from one of the two posts. That promise will cor-1 tainly have to be kept, and the! only really interesting question left Is that of which job said Mr. Bradley will aurrender.

Such theories. It revealed ItaeU to be wh|it -it still is— an attempt

■' to Isolate' the Cherbourg peninsu­la with one hand while we take Cherbourg port with the other.

' Wc have been battling consistent­ly along that -plan. But tha pre­scribed two weeks is nearly up, snd Cherbourg ii Still in Nazi

For this, laat^eb.^.-'-lSth, and from this iwune Deruch, we re­ceived a plan.

Yet. although we have flnSlly opened the Anal battle of the Eu­ropean war,, although thC most conservative jwurces are now guessing that jthis war may oe over this yeari which means a matter of a k w months more, nothing much is happening. Con­gress, which . has its vital part to play in preparing us for peace, is rushing toward a reeCss of some Ave weeks or so, and thus open­ing tha prospect that wa sbal.l drift Into the post-war era like acme great formless amoeba con­tinually at the mercy of thS^uc- tuating tides about It.

The prospect Is that we shall be igiprapared for peace, when pre­paring for it ought to be a high, present. emergency responsibility upon all executive and legislative officials. Alt our Ane talk, our good plans for preventing business distresa and unemployment are likely to come to nothing. In the confusion likely, to be our lot, everybody responsible for it will doubtless be very talented in blaming everybody else for oor failure.

Short distance thinkers tell ua, for cxrfmple. that our American deflaration of Independence sig­naled the biith of freedom in the world, and we are prone to accept such a brash statement as com­plete truth because we never give a thought to struggles against tyrannies engaged in, sometimes successfully, sometimes not, by peoples who have passed away and been forgotten for many, many centuries.

quality, the ability to carry a big­ger load of bomba a gfeatei* dis­tance at faster spaed than any other plane yet in. operation. . ,

Many of the subsidiary’ facta built Into this accomplAhment are po leas fascinating. It is hnlf agairt,S8 big as a Flying Fortress, yat I t ' requh-ea only a slightly longer runway for its take-off.

Particularly .with raferenipe to . the riae and subaidsnee—In some cases the total collapse and disappear­ance—of ’ civitisstions whleh havs sometimes sppesrsd to be fully as secure as our own.and very often indeed of fsr longer, duration. .

Because so many Americana who have spent all of tbslr childk hood and most of thsir adoles­cence jin school, yet remain utterly unimpressed by the facta and lea- sons of these_long dead civiliza- tioiia, they have no historical background whatever, no slightest intereit in. either cause oF~effect of, forces bearing directly upon their own lives though these forces have been active In the promotion or tha (ruatratlon ot civillzatiom for thousands ot years. -

Short Look Into Past Aa4 bsofluae ao vary many ot

us Imve no Uak whatavw ^rlth tha tor past, ths ' beginning ot all things, for us, is to be spotted with. arrival in this- country, from somewhere abroad, of a fav ther, a. grandfather, or at the most some forebear who baa made a Rue onq among ua a soventh or eighth or 'possibly a tenth genera­tion American. It is almost, to many, as though there had never been a world o f anjr eonaequance

fulnc.ss. no war will ever emanci­pate them, because all these his­toric forces are with us even here at home, just as they are in every land. It is not going to suffice to rid the world pf the bloodstained maniac Hitler, the Althy Tojo and the gangsters of tha Musiollnl breed, or to stamp out organised Naziiam or Fascism in iBuropa Or Asia, unless we are prepared, to take to our heajrik the searing les- .sons that world hlatory ha'a been teaching for-ten thousand years —that there can be no permanent civilization till we have one In which greed and power lust and injustice have no place.

I think Jhat Is what we are Aghting for. I think we are Aght- Ing for our own better way of life —and that. the utter deatruction of the black evil's in Europe and Asia are but means to an end.

Toughening ProcessOne of the small things that

have bothered me a good bit has been the type of horrlflc iuAm , grotesquely bearing the charac­terization o t music, to which serv­ice men at CKr many training camps ao often are subjected by "entertainers." I have never been able to understand why the mili­tary authorities, eapecially , tboM in the medical department,' have permitted the inlllctora o f, tbosa discordant, staccatto tortures to pick- on . the men of the Aghting forces at a time, when It woihd seem that their nerves needed Sta­bilizing, rather than currycomb- in'g.’ ""

It la only /u’ri.now that a potr. Bible explanation has corns to ms.

You have read, no doubt, of the rather awful, stunt that men of the combat '’ forces srs put through In training in assault tac­tics when -they are required to advance by rushes on poritlons oc- cupiad by a make-believe enemy who keep the qir full o f maebine jpiic bullets which are hot mako- belleva at all. but. bona fide lathal klUtn. The attoams or shoata— o f bullets are carefully co n tro l^ •0 that node b( tham.-wUl coma within lesa thaa Uuraa faat of the gfouod, and'ao long as ths . as­saulting tralnoe.doas not lose bis head and atond og get any part of himself above that aballow safety none, no barny comes to him. But be could get bUnsetR killed with the greatest 'ot ease R h i 'g o t rattled. ,v— — L.

•rihtp of Mrs. J. P. Cheney, Jr.. : whl man the 15 Bond Wagons next week as Manchester swings into a concentrated effort to top Its 5th , War Loan quota of $760,000. _ -|

In spite of the 'storm last ev-e- nlng over 200 xvorkers turned out at the American Legion Hall to hear their work for the campaign outlined by Chairman Harold . Al- vord. Each Bond Wagon, a feature originated by Mrs. J. P. Cheney, Jr., and unique to Manchester alone, will be mannid by a cashier, a typist and ten or more volun­teer workers. In addition, the Con­necticut State Guard will furnish a deUll of 30 armed guards for the five days of the orive. Each wagon will be fblly equipped to handle all the details necessary to buy a bond.

The women volunteers, as their presence prqvedy/are very enthusi­astic about this novel Idea of "go­ing over the top" with Bond Wag­ons. They Will wear distinctive headbands and will start their houte-tq-house calls' promptly at 6:30 nightly in order to1 je through by dusk. There will be no ddor-to- doo! high pressure selling: they v^ l merely tell you that the Bond

^ a g o n is. nearby and qsk you if you do not wish to come out and join your neigh^ra In buying bonds and backing the invasion.

Manchester has been divided Into five areas, one for each night; and slsewhere in today's Herald will be found a chart of the loca­tion of each Bond Wagon each of the five nighU. June 19-23, Inclus­ive. One of the wagons will be manned by members of the La­dles’ Auxiliary of the Anderson- Shea Post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, headed by Mrs, Neal Che

«THE FACTS WARDS HAS RECTTEO SHOW I

1. The Post OIBce aided the union during the strike at Wards and sought lo excuse ila actions to this Committee by misrepresenting the facts.

2- The National Labor Relations Board gerrymandered the bargaining units at Chicago to insure a union victory, and to force union representation upon the retail store employees who by remaining at work durihg the strike had clearly shown their rejection of the union.

t. The National Labor Relations Board has given a wholly false excuse for its action.

4. The War lAbor Board, and the Attorney Gencfal, to distract attention from their own illegal acta, have untruthfully attacked WaVd’a labor policies.

8. The War Labor Board violated the law by granting a contract to the union when the union had refused to prove that it had any legal right to represent Ward’s employees.^

6. The War Labor Board, by ordering the retroactive reinstatement of maintenance of membership, would hava made impoeeible the holding of a fair election among Ward’s em- ployeea. Obedience to that order would have forced Wards, before the election was held, to discharge the many employees who had exercised thoir right to resign from the union.

7. The National Labor Rclationi Board and the War Labor Board conspired together to bring about the saliura of_ Ward’s properties to enforce an order which they'knew to bo illegal and unfair.

8. The War Labor Board and the Atiorney Ganeral h p e sought to prevent Wflrdt frpm obtaining a hearing In the courts on the Illegality of the Board’s ordeiA, while seeking to impose those orders upon Wards by force.

These facts show that:the Post Office, the Department of Justice, the National Labor Rclationa Board, and the War Labor Board, with the approval of the President, have acted together to give illegal and unfair assistance to the CIO union at Chicago. ’ ^

Ward’s experience ever since the passage o f the Wagner Act has shown that the un­fairness and prejudice illuatrated by these actions is the common method by which the.se Agencies are using the prestige of the government to force the surrender of the liberties of employers and employees everywhere. '

By their policies of giving unfair and illegal assistance to labor unions, these bureaus have destroyed the established procedure of collective bargaining and have encouraged labor strife. Mr. William M. Leiserson, Chairman of the National Mediation Board, pointed this out in a recent address, saying: “

“The unions . . . have come to depend on the Government to give them. what they could not gain by collective bargaining,with employers. And

now, when the giving must atop bWause of the burdens of war and the necessity to control inflation, they turn in resentment against the Gov- . ^ernment like children against over-indulgent parents . . .

“ Government agencies are perhaps more responsible for the present labor fyA situation than the unions and their leaders. The dependence of work-

ra’ organizations on the Government is as much the result of their poli­cies as of union policies.’ ’

By seeking to force Wards to obey an illegal order while depriving Wards of a hearing In the courts, these agencies have shown their lack of respect for our Constitution and the fundamental rights wHich the Constitution guarantees. 'The Constitution is no lunger the supreme law of the land if those whose rights are threatened are deprived of an oppor­tunity to obtain the protection of the courts,

Fropi its experien'^a, War^s draws the conclusions that these many bureaus have, formed s machine for purchasing political support from labor organizations.

Wards, has long believed that, when the public awakens to the degree of coercion used by the administrative agencies of the government to force employers end employees to

■ accept union restriction^ In which they do not believe and which without such coercion they would svold. It will rise In indignation. _The public will demand that those appointed to office in these agencled acUwilh simple fairness and obey the law or be removed from power.* .

IM ffleta Wards haa recited show, Anally', that tha President, to force Wards to obey aa jsrder known to hia advisors to be unfair and illegal, ordered Ward’s property seized by force;

The President’s action in ordering the plant seized was the usurpation of a power pot grant«d him bf^owgreaa and dfliled him by the Constitution he^^ as sworn to uphold and defend.

The eeisore o f Ward’s plant developed .a spontaneous end continuing public indignation which reatilted in this Jnveatigation. This fndignation is easily interpreted. A free Amer­ican people will not accept dictaiorship.” ' , ~ '

Sixty-five to 75 miles up the peninsula from Grosseto is Pisa, the west anchor of the Pisa-Flor- ence-Rlmini. line at which the Ger- mana may take a stand against the Allied Armies, the Naval base of Livorno, and the city of Flor­ence. Gresseto. with its airport facilities, is expected to be of im­mediate value for air attack on German preparaed positions in the northern Aj^nniea whose foothills come down to these cities.

landinga on Elba were made at both the southern and northern and of the island, with one Just weat of Portoraerraio, the island's m ijor dty. The broadcast said “fighting Is still going on,” with a “ small German garrison’* defend­ing the island.)

Heavy Air Toll TakenThe Mediterranean Air Force

took a heavy toll of enemy aircraft in widespread attacks, destroying 79 enemy aircraft at a cost of 12 heavy bombers and nlns other alr- araft missing..'Medium bombers attacked rail

and road bridges in the Florence- Fisa-Bologna area, while fighter- hombera hit .roads, rail lines, brkjges, motor transport and raiU way rolling stock. Fighter planes attacked enemy concentrations in Tugoslavia, destroying a large number of motor vehicles.

These attacks Ware Irt addition ■to the raid by strong forces of heavy bombera yesterday on fiyi oil refiaerics in the Vienna areaxml another at Bratislava in Qx^cho- Movakia.

The Americans alone have cap­tured 8.509 Germans so , far, and evacuated them from Normany, he added.

On the eastern end of the battle- front, supreme headquarters de­clared strong Geman attacks were beaten off east of Caen, andx'a headquarters officer said two un­successful Nazi counter-blows In the Troarn area, .'seven miles be­yond Caen W<re “extremely coatly” to the enemy.

Punch Out Ldoal Advance* Toward the center, the Allies

punched out local advances despite heavy opposition between, Cau- mdnt and Tilly-sur-Seulles, the communique said. ‘ ,

(The Gel-man high command said Nazi counter-attacks had re­gained the greater part of the forest area south of Bsvent. 3'^ miles north of Troem, and.'east of the Orne river.)

Bad weather and yough seas hampered unloading as well as other operations and made it un­likely that the AUies would put in a full-scale attack until the weather improves and they can use their air superiority to ,the full.

Only slight activity was report­ed along the 190-mila-plua beach­head front, although tha (Sermana made two heavy and “extremely costly” counter-attacks in the Troam area, east of CTaen, which were repulsed.

L'sea Tanka and Infantry in these attacks Field Marshal

Ervrin Rommel used tanks and in­fantry in efforts to penetrats Brit­ish positions at Breville and Es- coville, respectively seven and four and a half miles northeast of Caen.

Biggest news of the day was the weather, which again blew at “ force, four” from the north. Any wind from "force three” or above 'delays unloading on the beach­head, supreme headquarters said.

It waa disclosed officially that (general Bradley, American ground commander, has two Army corps under his command, the Fifth and Seventh. The Fifth ia composed of the First, Second and 29th divisions while the Seventh in­cludes the 82nd and 191st Air­borne and the Fourth - Infantry divisions:

It was these forces which regis­tered the only new advances along the bridgehead front.

Chungking, -June 17 — |J>) — Heavy fighting is taking place in the southeastern suburbs of Changsha, but the (Chinese garri­son in that strategic Hunan prov­ince city is complying with Gen­eralissimo Chiang Kai-Shek's or­ders to defend the city at all costs, the Chinese high command an­nounced last night.

Chinese troops in Honan prov­ince to the north blunted a .Japa­nese advance progressing south­ward with- the aim of rccaptuBng the gi(p in the Peiping-Hankow railway.tbiit other Japanese forces, moving soUtfawarii parallel to the railway, have'taken Junan, hub of seven highways 125 miles south- southeast of Chengchow, the Chi­nese said.

Maj. Gen. C. C. Tseng," Army spokesman, said Chinese troopa still have an escape loop-hole at Changsha to the southwest, but have elected no* to Use it. He re­iterated belief that the Japanese were aiming at conquering the whole of the Canton-Hankow rail­way',* since the main body of the Japanese force has by-passed Changsha, headed south. ,

rep o r t^ the Charan-Kanoa air- strip.J(a8 been won but still is un- der-^neniy mortar .’ire^ on the south end of the beachhead, Yanks opened “a powerful attack today which carried them close to the Aslito airdrome” ; on the north end, less than five milea below Gara- pan, th ^ main town on Saipan was subjected to daylong Ameri­can artillery-fire.

'Thanks to the preparatory ■trikes against dozens of Japanese bases in the Carolines, Nippon was unable to send aloft a single plane tc interfere with landing opera­tions,” Jo^inston praised.

Admiral Chester W. Nimitz an­nounced laat night that the Yanks recoiled from an earlier reverse to score their hard-won success at Clharan-Konoo. Then he added this cautious note:

“Our oasumption that Saipan island would be sfrongly held be­cause of ita st^eglc^ location in the Japanese defense” system has been proven correct. Preliminary estimates indicate there are tip- wards of two divisions of enemy troops defending Saipan.” '

T ^ divisions nominally total 30,900 men. No official mention has been made of the invaders’ strength but Tokyo radio estimat­ed it at one division, l5,009 men.

Move to Block Reinforcements Earlier Nimitx disclosed that on

the day o f the Invasion a task fcrce moved between the Maria­nas and J^psui; presumably . to block any reinforcement move from that direction, and sent uut carrier plahes against the Kazan and Bonin islands.

Tokyo radio] first announcing the attacks on Chichi and Haha in the Benins and Iwo in the Kazan group,, claimed “more than 17” raiders -were shot down but Nimitz listed the . cost as four planes and five airmen.

The enemy air and shipping losses raised the total _ of planes destroyed there and in ' the Mari.- anas since Saturday above'' 190 and the ships sunk at 16. The task force achieved such surprise in the ^n lna that carrier planes caught a transport moving toward . the raiding fieet. An American de­stroyer finished it off anil, picked up 112 Japs os prisoners.

The corriel- planes spread ex­plosions among barracks, air fields and fuel tanks.

Newmarket, England. June 17—(IF)—Oefean Swell, a lowly rtgarded outsider owned by Lord Rosebory, -won England’s famed Derby today at odds of 28 to 1 in an exciting finish with Teheran and Happy Landing who finished second and third.

With Jockey Will Nevett tq». Ocean Swell took the lead less than a half mile from the finish of Britain’s top classic for three year old* and stood off a furious finish to, beat Teheran by a nech. Happy limdlng. closing with a rinh, was third by a heed.

Lord Derby's (Jarden Path, bniy filly In the aborting field of 29 and the pre-race tovorite, weakened in the rousing s u e ^ run and llnelly landed In' tentai place. Mustang and Growing OonfWence, two oth­er wen regnrded^qtarters, could do ho better than Xjeventh and eleventh.

Teheran and Happyv Landing were fifth and sixth when Ocean Swell boimded into'the lra)l but they whirled past Ramses, Orostes end Garden Path With speed ^ t brought a rolling shout from ihf ground of more than 19,000. \

For the fifth straight year the' Derby wqa run at Newmarket in stead of ita borne course o f Epsom Downs because ot the war and to­day’s crowd was’considered one of the largest since hostilities open­ed d e s {^ the fact that toe inva sion of Europe began only 11 days ago and the Germans’ robot planes were hardly more than a day-old mystery.

Mike and Phil Dwyer ran' a prosperous butcher shop in oW Woahlngtnn Market^ As they grew in affluence' their .love of heroes and racing prompted them to indulge their fancy by pur­chasing a thoroughbred.

August Belmont dropped in for a chat and the sreekly meat ra­tions,. sold the brothers a hand­some 3-year^ld named Rhada- teonthus. This proved a lucky huy. The horse won several races.

Flushed with thlr success the Dwyer . boys increased their string until they owned one of the b^ t in America. Their colors, red 'with blue sash, became one of the . most pop-ular on the turf for the next 39 years. They reign­ed from 1875 to 1895.'
