The rest of his family quickly followed suit. At the refugee camp, a naval officer reported that the family was in "a better state of health" than many civilians who had been hiding a shorter period of time The Japanese had been living off a vast store of canned and crated rations and rice.

Dec. 19 (UJ0 Prime Minister Churchill announced in commons today that he had decided de-cided to postpone any further' statement regarding the international interna-tional political and military situation situ-ation until after Christmas because be-cause of the "great battle" under way on the western front. Hard-pressed by Laborites for a statement regarding Greece, Churchill said he was unable to make a full-length statement but would answer questions if raised on an adjournment motion. The prime minister looked weary and mumbled his answers. He showed nothing of the oratorical ora-torical fire which he had flashed during his 'recent Polish and Greek statements. He said the "great battle proceeding pro-ceeding now" in and on the approaches ap-proaches to Belgium and Luxembourg, Luxem-bourg, made any formal statements state-ments undesirable.

The FBI found Japanese lettering on tne cratt dating its manufacture Oct. 31, 1044. WASHINGTON. Dec. 19 (U.PJ Discovery of a Japanese balloon in Montana raised the interesting possibility today that the Japanese Japa-nese may have outdone their German Ger-man axis partners in figuring a waV to land saboteurs on American Amer-ican soil. There was nothing to indicate that the balloon actually carried enemy agents to this country; neither was there an official explanation ex-planation as to its purpose. But one of many speculative theories was that it was used by Japanese saboteurs to get onto U. S. soil. If so, it was more daring and dramatic dra-matic than the Nazis' ill-fated attempt in June of 1042 to land trained saboteurs on American soil by submarine. The present world record of 1,896 miles for free ballooning was established in Germany in 1914. The distance from Tokyo to Kal- jispell, Mont., where the balloon was found is well over 5200 miles. Even if the Japanese balloon came from the easternmost tip of ! the home islands or f romJapa-jncse-held Wake island, it still would beat the German record. There is a distinct possibility, I however, that the balloon was launched from a Japanese submarine subma-rine just off the United States I west coast. planes raked the German assault P 8O.Pran0- "eUen Bunnell. j Bran middlings are employed ' by the steel industry in the manu-i manu-i facturc of tin plate as an agent to help remove oil from the I product. front with bombs, gunfire and rockets yesterday in a dawn to dusk attack that knocked out 110 enemy tanks and armored vehi cles in what returning airmen described as the biggest mass slaughter since the Argenten-Falaise Argenten-Falaise battle last summer.
