When driven from Massico ridge, the Nazis were expected to retire to the Garigliano river, some eight miles distant. Behind the Garigliano river, it was thought they might make a stand in the mountains, which dip almost into the sea in this sector. Although the Nazis action is of a delaying nature, it involves bitter fighting, since German artillery the mountain sides can planted-ofire down on Allied forces fighting their way up, and Nazi machine gunners and mortar batteries can hide in the rugged country and spray U.

From the RABBIT RAISERS Japan has moved for maximum industrialization of East Asia as part of her program to meet the Allies impending onslaught on her rambling empire. By recent order, the famous business house of Mitsibushi was directed to double the capital of its subsidiaries, with the Japanese government itself putting in 50 per cent of the new money. Further, Mitsibushis shipbuilding, steel and aircraft industries are to be reorganized, with vital plants moved to China and Manchuria to escape Allied bombing. The other 10 financial houses which share their rule over Japanese business with Mitsibushi are also expected to come under close government control. planes stepped American Secretary of State Cordell Hull and British Foreign Minister Anthony Eden.

CATTLE: Less Slaughter Because cattle slaughter for the first nine months ol 1943 dropped to 7.962.000 head from the 9,067,005 killed during the same period last year, 700 million pounds less beef have been produced. During the first few weeks of October, however, cattle slaughter showed an increase over preceding months, with 406,961 head killed. On October 19, 20 major markets received 200,000 cattle for a record run, with Kansas City receipts of 57.000 setting an all-tim- e mark. According to reports, many thin, grass-fe- d cattle were finding their way to the stockyards instead of to the feed lots of the Midwests com belt. Prime fed cattle were selling only slightly below the July peak. Take good-tastin- tonic g mpny doctors recommend Catch cold easily? Listless? Tire quickly?
