Auff. 23 T.I! - An office of price administration 1 1 port asserting the net operating operat-ing incomo for apartment houses here in 1912 showed an increase of 50 per cent while expenses rose 2.: per cent today drew sharp criticism from Richard F.'Haru-ing, F.'Haru-ing, executive vice president of the 'Apartment House Association of Utah. Harding descrih?d the report a.s "typical cf the abuses of the OPA" and said he was "outraged to think that such ridiculous piop-afcanda can be released by a governim nt agency." The it-port, released by Willis W. Hitter, OPA regional rent executive, ex-ecutive, Denver, covered apartment apart-ment buildings with I'M dwelling units, representing 91- per cent of all tenant-occupied units in Salt. Lake City.

He added that apartment house expenses have risen 20 to 40 per cent. 1 "There are 16,000 residential units in the city, 45 per cent of which are rented," he said "and the OPA bases a report like that on 734 onits." The other 55 per cent are owner-occupied. Harding said the OPA report is v;i lueless. The survey was one of a series conducted in defense-rental areas throughout the nation. heat Increase Granted to Utah LOGAN, Utah, Aug. 23 ir.H A wheat increase of 62,000 acres over the 1943 goal, has been set for Utah nxt year, Orville L. Lee. chairman of the Utah USDA war board, said today. The new goal will be 275,000 acres, compared with 213,000 for 1943. Lee said the increase can be reached by planting the normal amount of dry land acreage. This will make it unnecessary to increase in-crease the irrigated land acreage, he said.

October's Draft Quota to Include Some Fathers, Too By FRED MULLEN United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 23 OLE) Selective service officials said a picture of the full effect of the October draft call is unavailable today, but it appeared likely that quotas would be filled from avail-ble avail-ble single and childless married men, plus those fathers who remain re-main in none-deferrable activities. Despite the terse warning1 by war manpower commission officials of-ficials to draft-age men filling designated non - deferrable jobs that they no longer could be deferred de-ferred from the draft regardless of family ties there has been no rush by those men to job in war and other essential activities. That was one point stressed by officials who are confident that the non-deferrables will provide sufficient numbers to meet October's Oc-tober's call roughly 300,000 men after the available single and childless married men are exhausted. ex-hausted. The week-old revisions of the manpower- program had a, twofold two-fold objective to drive fathers from non-essential to essential jobs; and to set the pattern by which fathers would be drafted. A new inventory of selective service registrants is now underway, under-way, but is not expected to be completed and analyzed until sometime in September. When that compilation is completed, selective service officials will be better prepared to Estimate how many fathers will go, in October.

The British are expected to bear the burden of the Burma campaign, cam-paign, but will be supported by heavy concentrations of American air and sea forces. It will involve one of the most difficult amphibious amphibi-ous operations of the war against Japan, necessitating landings at the mouths of rivers which the enemy has been using to supply its forces in Burma. r The reoccupation of Japanese-abandoned Japanese-abandoned Kiska in the Aleutians bas removed the last trouble spot on the short-cut to the Japanese homeland. Some experts believe that now that Kiska is no longer a problem, Americaji air and' sea forces in the Aleutians will soon embark on a campaign of harassment harass-ment against the Kuriles and possibly even against some of the northern isles of Japan proper. One thing; is regarded certain that the air ;war against the Japanese Japa-nese naval base at Paramushiru in the northern Kuriles will be stepped step-ped up sharply. The presence of a powerful American fleet in the Aleutians, which threatens the northern approaches ap-proaches to Japan, it is hoped, will lure the Japanese home fleet out to battle. The enemy's home fleet -believed to contain the most modern mod-ern warships in the Japanese navy, haSv never ventured out. Today 2 3 if' - Canadian Troops Of Kiska Uillag By JAMES A..

Two dolls lie at my feet, and t appears there must have been Japanese geisha girls or nurses on Kiska a.t one time. All around are shells, bullets, motars, blankets, blank-ets, knives, gas masks, flares, packs, leggins, ice skates arid even baseballs all testifying to the hastiness of the evacuation. WASHINGTOON, Aug. 23 (ILEX' United. States and Canadian troops have landed on the island of Segula, about 20 miles east of Kiska, as they continued to occupy occu-py the former Japanese base and its adjacent areas, the navy announced an-nounced today. ,J A communique said that no i Japanese were found on Segula,' which is a rocky island about five miies square. The navy also announced that three midget Japanese subma rines, similar to those captured at Pearl. Harbor, were found on the marine railway it the submarine subma-rine base on Kiska. The undersea craft had apparently been dain aged by demolition bbmbs. JflPS LEAVE fJOTE (Continued from Page One); explanations today of the loss Of Kiska, describing in one breath the garrison's flight to escape a trap and claiming in another that they never meant to hold the Aleutians. H ' To these cleams Tokyo added the boast that withdrawal from Kiska without loss was held 1y Japanese military commentators to "be "without a parallel in world military history," the Office jf War Information said. OWI pointed out Berlin said the same thing last Tuesday about the retreat re-treat of the Axis from Sicily. ; ' Broadcasts recorded by U. ; S, Monitors said the island Was seized originally to cover fortification fortifi-cation of the Kurles, on the northern nor-thern approaches to Japan proper. , Forgetting previous boasts that the Aleutions were the road to ai attack on Alaska, the broadcaster said the Kurile chain had been developed and that Kiska had been abandoned "according to plan." American and Canadian troops which took over the. island Aug. 15 found no opposition but saw signs that the garrison's flight had been recent. Tokyo said . it pulled about aboard warships during dur-ing a "providential break in the fog." Ss7 r t - riwsTN.

"By this disengaging move ment, German positions have been considerably shortened and im proved." The German high command also acknowledged the loss of Khar kov in a broadcast communique. It was expected that Russia would announce the recapture of Kharkov in a special communique tonight. The German evacuation came only a little more than two weeks after the start of the Soviet summer sum-mer offensive in this sector and held promise of an intensified drive toward the Dnieper River, the next big natural defense line to the west. Soviet flanking columns al- aced J? m,iles to! west to within 24 miles north of PbUava, railroad junction 55 miles northeast of the Dnieper.

The Red Army captured Khar kov last Feb. 16 after a 30Omile march from Stalingrad, but lost it to a German counter-offensive a month later. London military observers believed be-lieved the Germans now would fall back steadily behind stubborn rear guard resistance while massing mass-ing reserves along the Dnieper in hopes of launching another powerful pow-erful counter-offensive. The Russians probably will advance ad-vance as far as Poltava, SO miles southwest of Kharkov, with but little difficulty, then encounter steadily-stiffening resistance as they near the Dnieper river line. The summer offensive already has liberated thousands of souare miles of harvest-ripe grain at a time wnen food is becoming an increasing problem in Russia.
