L , HERES MORE ABOUT RICKENBACKER (Continued From Page One a man with a family, working at home in industry with his family than to have him drafted for combat service and have our government liable for the support of his family. He could earn the wages of industry and in this way make a fairer distribution of the costs of this war. With the end of the war, they could be given honorable discharges the same as those who were in combat and make them feel that they had served their country to the best of their ability. Rickenbacker also advocated the keeping of civilian service records of the same sort that are kept for the individual members of the armed services. In these records would be entered such voluntary efforts as service on draft boards, ration boards, civil defense work, welfare work, work in shipyards and munitions plants, but, he continued, "let the foreman also advise as to tardiness, waste of equipment or absenteeism so that a shirking worker would have such acts recorded in the same way that desertion is entered in the record of a man in uniform He renewed his charge that the new deal social expenditures of billions had been 'to destroy initiative, imagination and individuality, trying to plan the lives of 130.000,000 people by a superior few" all qualities, he continued, for which the war billions were being spent to restore. Commenting on the war manpower commission ordering men in certain endeavor into essential work on the srmed am service, he said: shocked to find that our officials in Washington have omitted challenging a group known more commonly as labor racketeers of the 'graft' age and I spell it with a 'U' and not a 'D'. . Returning to this subject later in his address, he said: ''And to congress, I sa.y again face the facts and show the traditional American intestinal fortitude by legislating this cancerous elefnent from our midst. Why should these racketeers be immune from reporting their incomes or paying taxes on their tributes from the millions? " X x x no, I am not a labor hater. I believe in honest labor unions who are doing their darn-doto turn out the weapons we need. X x x and to those millions of honest men and women war workers goes my heartfelt thanks but to those whom the shoe fits, I say wear it."

Titi is not shown on most maps. But Marovovo, one-hamile to the east, is described in the Sailing Directions, of 1938 as a station of the Melanesian mission. It is situated on high ground and a church, a hospital and several bungalows are conspicuous from the northeastward. With American troops at Titi, it will be possible to pinch the remaining Japanese troops that have been forced back to a very small area along the northwest tip of Guadalcanal. The main American position is west of Tanafaronga only about 15 miles from the new position at Titi. Recent estimates place the number of enemy troops on the island at less than 3.000. The last naval communique did not mention the senes of engagements which have been reported in the southern Solomons for more than a week. Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox said last Saturday that the "sporadic engagements" were continuing and that both sides had suffered "moderate losses. lf air-nav- al ENSIGN MONTGOMERY YORK, Feb.

American troops have trapped the remaining Japanese forces on Guadalcanal in a "V" shaped pocket after a difficult flanking movement through dense jungles and mountains. The navy revealed yesterday that the Americans have established a strongs position at Titi, onc-hamile west of Morovovo and five miles west of Cape Esperance on the northwest tip of Guadalcanal. The communique did not reveal how the American got to Titi, which is 25 air miles from Henderson field, but a naval spokesmen said he believed that they had cut their way through the jungles and over mountains, some of which rise as high as 3,000 feet.
