'YVv Growers To Evacuee Labor GARLAND, Utah, April 4 (U.n A plan for occupation of the Tremonton CCC camp by Japanese Japa-nese evacuated from the Pacific coast met failure as a result of war department disapproval. Rosan A. Iverson. president of the Garland Beet Growers' asso ciation, said that new plans are going forward to house the evacuees evac-uees in the area. A representative representa-tive group of Box Elder residents appealed to Governor Herbert B. Mam and asked that he attempt to secure approval of the war department. Refusal of the war department was subsequently received. re-ceived. According to Iverson, many farmers in the county are planning plan-ning to erect labor houses on their farms.

INDIA (Continued from Page One) satisfactory, and Nehru told the United Press that he would have no further meetings with Wavell. Azad, he said, will meet with Cripps again to seek London's "final" reaction to a coiyjress statement rejecting the post-war dominion status offer as it was brought to India by Cripps. Same congress quarters said that unless the British agree to the naming of an Indian defense minister "there is no hope of congress con-gress co-operation." To Report Sunday Nehru will report Sunday to the congress working committee on the Wavell conference, which also was attended by Gen. Sir Alan Hartley, commander of the army Gen. Georsre Nobel Moleworth, British deputy chief of staff. As the negotiations approached a climax, a newly-arrived envoy of President Roosevelt was on the sidelines, transmitting reports to Washington. He was Louis A. Johnson, personal per-sonal representative of President Roosevelt, who arrived in New Delhi yesterday. The Gandhi-approved statement, which called the proposals transmitted trans-mitted by Sir Stafford Cripps "far too belated" and unacceptable, unaccept-able, was regarded as of major significance because of inquiries put to him a short time earlier by Indian nationalist leaders. The nationalist leaders disclosed that they had sought Gandhi's guidance on "a lead to the country coun-try in case of a Japanese attack" upon India. The development gave the negotiations ne-gotiations a completely new turn inasmuch as Jawaharlal Nehru, outstanding figure of the All-India (nationalist) congress, has been directing the talks with Cripps, while Gandhi ardent believer be-liever in non-resistance has remained re-mained aloof. Gandhi, however, made no mention men-tion of Japan, nor did he indicate any intention of abandoning his credo of non-resistance should a compromise solution on the British Brit-ish offer be found, although most observers believe that if the nationalist, na-tionalist, denands are satisfied, Gandhi will not stand in the way of other congress leaders mobilizing mobiliz-ing Indian resistance against attack. TOJO WARNS OF OVERCONFIDENCE TOKYO, April 4 (Japanese broadcast recorded by United Press in New York) Premies Gen. Hideki Tojo . warned Japan today against overconfidence and said that the current war "remains "re-mains to be fought ia the future despite the glorious military victories vic-tories already achieved by Japanese Japa-nese armed, forces."- He spoke at a luncheon in honor of Japan's Juridicial chiefs. Commenting on the first -general elections since outbreak of war, Tojo stressed the need for further strengthening national solidarity "to achieve final victory vic-tory under the new diet." The elections are scheduled for April 30.

A communique said mat "means that almost tne total of all 'enemy aircraft in Burma nas been destroyed." . The newspaper Yomiuri, in a dispatch . front rtabaul. New .Britain, .Brit-ain, said the American submarine was sunk on March 30 south of, New Ireland, in the Bismarck Archipelago north of Australia.

With the airport to be completed com-pleted in 120 working days, the construction company is operating oper-ating two shifts daily at present, and there will be three shifts later. Virtually all of the workers work-ers are Utah men. The original airport plans had t be altered slightly, adding to the south' end of the runways and cutting off from the north end because of the limitations of the site acquired. The plans are now in Santa Monica for final approval by the government. Contract for lighting the airport air-port has been let to A. R. Morgan Mor-gan of Billings, Mont.

April ' OP Army and navy transports which go to Puerto Rico on military voyages will be pressed into service serv-ice to- bring sugar to the United States on their return voyages, it was learned today. . Lieut. Cmdr. Thomas C Hen-nlngs Hen-nlngs Jr., naval aide to Governor Gover-nor Rexford G. Tugwell of Puerto Rico, ' said that the army and navy had agreed to the proposal. So little sugar storage space remains available in Puerto Rico that some mills will have to close within the next two weeks, Hen-nings Hen-nings : said. Despite this move to -speed up imports, sugar rationing was expected ex-pected to go into effect next month as planned. WPM Chairman Chair-man Donald M. Nelson and Price Administrator Leon Henderson arranged to meet this afternoon to check on the sugar situation and the shipping bottlenecks. Usually . well-informed sources meantime said there was no truth to reports that the sugar rationing ration-ing plan would be abandoned. Disclosure that 750,000 tons of Cuban sugar originally scheduled to be used for production of industrial in-dustrial alcohol may be made available for consumer use, led to predictions that there might be some increase in sugar rationing ra-tioning quotas. The big problem, however, is in getting the sugar here. Rep. Harry B. Coffee, D., Neb., said WPB officials had told him that increases in alcohol production produc-tion from other sources would necessitate the use of only 250,000 tons of Cuban sugar for making alcohol, whereas the original plan was to use about 1,000,000 tons. Coffee said there was an over-supply over-supply of sugar in 1940 and 1941, and that this excess probably is now in consumers reserves. He cited the increase in production of alcohol from grain, blackstrap molasses and petroleum gas, and also the increase in beet -sugar planting as the basis for predicting predict-ing larger rations. Present plans are to iimit sugar su-gar purchases to eight ounces per week for each person, but a bigger big-ger sugar supply might raise the quota to 12 or 16 ounces.
