S. Dit stilleries Told To Make Industrial Alcohol By the Associated Press. The Government today ordered approximately 60 per cent of the ation’s distilleries to turn their ailable facilities into production of industrial alcohol. The order, issued by Donald M. to use alcohol turned out by the distilleries as the military situation requires. Industrial alcohol previously has been manufactured largely from molasses.

M. spokes- men said no shortage in alcoholic beverages was anticipated, sincc there was more than five years' nor- mal supply already in storage.

BY the Ascociated Press. | President Roosevelt asked the Senate today to vest broad war- time price controls in a “single responsible individual.” i In messages to Majority Leader | Barkley and Senator Brown, Demo- crat, of Michigan, floor manager for the pending price control meas- ure, the Chief Executive said: +I am somewhat disturbed by re- ports that a board has been sug- gested as a substitute for a single | individual. 1 am also disturbed at | the suggestion that control over | agricultural commodities be sep- arated from all other articles and | vested in the Department of Agri- culture | The unusual presidential message on a pending legislative measure was seen as an administration effort to defeat two proposed amendments, one by the potent Senate farm bloc, led by Senator Bankhead, Demo- crat, of Alabama. to give the Sec- retary of Agriculture a veto power on all farm price ceilings, and a second by Senator Taft. Republi- can, of Ohio, asking that price- fixing powers be placed in a board of five member: Opposes Division of Control. “I strongly hope that no division of control will be made,” the Pres- ident wrote. *“The whole price struc- ture is linked together.” Senator Taft, meanwhile. urged enactment of a stringent price con- trol bill. telling the Senate this country must prepare for war lasting at least five vears. If there is no control of prices. they might increase by as much as 400 per cent over what they were before the emergency began, and even with the enactment of an ef- fective bill, they are likely to con- tinue their upward trend, he said.’ “If we can possibly hold the in- crease in prices to 10 per cent a year we will have done a good job,” the Ohio Senator declared In reply to questions by Senator Lee, Democrat, of Oklahoma, Sen- ator Taft said he thought it would ! be a mistake for the orice adminis- trator, now Leon Henderson, to make any attempt at present to fix ceilings on cotton, wheat, corn and other agricultural products of which sur- pluses exist Senator Vandenberg. Republican of Michigan, interrupted to sav he be- lieved it was necessary for the Sen- ate to restore to the bill a House- approved provision barring at- tempts by the price administrator to bring about changes in business practices while fixing prices. The Senate Banking Committee had eliminated this section from the bill. Other Changes Held Possible. Senator Taft pointed out that the committee had specified in the measure that the price administras tor could not fix prices based on such low costs that advertising would be eliminated. However, Sen- ator Taft said the way was left open for the administrator to force dozens of other changes in business meth- ods, adding: | “Mr. Henderson has got a lot of ideas about how business practices | ought to be changed.” Without objection, the Senate | approved amendments offered by | Senator Downey, Democrat, of | California exempting motion pic- | tures and other theatrical opera- tions from the price control meas- | ure. | . Senator Brown, said there was no intent by the price administrator to | regulate these and no testimony had | been taken about them. He accept- | ed the Downey amendments for the | Banking Committee which drafted the Senate bill. (Gen. Wood to Be Adviser 'In Chicago Ordnance Unit | By the Associated Press. | CHICAGO. Jan. 8—Gen.

A number of inhabited localities were occupied. In the Crimea the defenders of Sevastopol were revorted to be breaking the German siege of that Black Sea naval base and to have launched a new offensive to drive the Nazis out of the Crimea The Moscow radio also quoted front dispatches saving between January 1 and Tuesday the Ger- | mans lost more than 8,000 men and officers killed on the southwestern front. More than 130 villages were liberated and a large quantity of war material was captured Sevastopel Garrison on Offensive. The Sevastopol garrison took the offensive after the Germans with- drew some forces in that sector to reinforce units which had been driven back from the Kerch Penin- sula, on the east, by the Russian landing there, the dispatches said German troops moving from the Sevastopol to the Kerch sector were subjected to heavy bombing and shelling and one column was re- ported destroyed. Meanwhile a Russian force from the Caucasus which landed on the Eastern Crimean coast was said to have reached the coast of the Sea of Azov north of Feodosiya. cutting off the entire Kerch peninsula. Nazis Used 7 Divisions. A summary of the Crimean cam- paign by Izvestia said the Germans | massed seven divisions on the ap- proaches of Sevastopol in mid-De- cember and threatened a break- through of the port's defenses on December 27. However, a counter- attack by a brigade of marines from the Black Sea fleet drove them back.

The House late today passed a bill authorizing expenditure of $100,000.000 for civilian defense after transferring control over the program from Mayor La Guardia of New York, national civilian | defense director, to the War Department. ‘.‘ Action tg give the War Depart-&—— ment control came on a vote of 110 to 52 The Republican minority voted almost solidly for transfer of the authority. L It appeared likely that the meas- ure would go to a conference com- mittee to adjust Senate and House differences. As it passed the Senate, the bill contained no limitation on the amount of money to be spent, and left the spending with the director of civilian defense. the post to which Mayor La Guardia was appointed by the President. May Leads La Guardia Defense. Chairman May of the Military Affairs Committee, which by a one- vote margin amended the Senate- passed legislation to put the expen- diture under the Secretary of War, had told the House that Secretary Stimson said he had neither facili- ties nor time to handle the cigilian defense work. Representative Gifford, Republi- can, of Massachusetts. contended that Mayor La Guardia “and the lady in the White House” were t00 busy to direct the civilian defense work. Mrs. Roosevelt is assistant director. Mr. May, praising Mayor La Guardia's executive abilities. de- clared that “I think you gentlemen know that when he was a member of this House, he kept no hours, he did the work of two of us.” “Why,” said Mr. May, reaching | for a superlative, “he rolls over and over like a wheel. He never loses | a minute.” Representative Andrews. Repub- | lican, of New York. a ranking mem- | ber of the committee, admitted that | there was “no harder working man ! in the United States. but said that | he was certain that Mayor La | Guardia would realize ultimately | that he couldn’t handle both jobs. | “If he doesn't.” he added., “the | President ought to make him realize it. | 1 | To Keep Both Jobs. landed on the Kerch peninsula De- | Mr. La Guardia said in New York yesterday that for the present he ex pected to continue both as Mayor of New York and as civilian defense | director. He said he had conferred | with President Roosevelt and that a plan had been worked out by which he would be relieved of much desk work and routine, but would spend considerable time setting up defense organizations throughout the coun- try. Representative Kilday, Democrat. of Texas argued that “something should be done and done without delay,” and contended that the War Department was the best agency for the job “because the more you sepa- rate the work of defense the less co-ordination you get.” “I want the military to run the anti-aircraft guns in Washington, to provide protection along the coast and on the borders,” said Repre- sentative Thomason, Democrat, of Texas. “But.” he continued, “T don’t want the War Department butting into the affairs of the water depart- ment in my little city and telling the chief of police and the fire depart- ment there how to run their busi- I'm not willing to militarize To Consult Stimson Charles A. Lindbergh, who offered his services to the Army Air Corps shortly after Christmas, arrived here today, reportedly to confer with Secretary of War Stimson on his request for duty. Assistant Secretary of War John J. McCloy, asked at a press confer- ence if he knew whether Mr. Lind- | bergh was coming to the War De- partment, replied that so far as he could determine. the fiyer had no appointment with Secretary Stim- son. The Secretary was reported to be out of town this morning. No official action had been taken by the War Department on Mr. | Lindbergh's application up to this morning. It is understood the avia- tor has not filed a formal applica- | tion since offering his services in a letter to Secretary Stimson. Superintendent of West Point Gen.

Smith and three of his assistants to appear before the committee at 10:30 a.m, tomor- | row and to bring with them the ex- ecutive order and all other files re- lating to the proposed transfer of 12 Government agencies to other cities. Chairman McCarran announced this decision after officials of a num- ber of the agencies affected had said in reply to questioning that the notices to move to Chicago, Cleve- land, Philadelphia and other cities had come through the Budget Bu- reau. Interior Secretary Ickes, mean- while, expressed hope that no em- ployes of the Indian, parks and fish and wildlife offices would be “de- ported” from Washington. These offices were scheduled to be trans- planted to Chicago under tentative plans to make room here for war workers. Mr. Ickes said the offices already maintained only skeleton staffs which must be kept here to con- tact other bureaus and Congress. He added that they were “decen- tralized” several years ago. with assignment of most of their workers to offices in various regions through- out the country. No Protests From Personnel. Spokesmen for five of the agencies told the committee this morning how the performance of their func- tions requires frequent consultation with other departments in Wash- ington and that a substantial per- centage of their employes have in- dicated they would not leave if the | bureaus go. One agency head, Lemuel B. Scho- field, special assistant to the Attor- | ney General in charge of the Im- migration and Naturalization Serv- | ice, offered no objection to moving and testified arrangements are being made to transfer the bureau to Phil- adelphia. He said he has had no complaints from his personnel, but, in response to questions, estimated that possibly 30 per cent of the em- ployes might not go. Senator McCarran asked Mr. Scho- field if Philadelphia is his home, and he replied: “It happens to be, yes sir.” High Officials Heard. Chairman Randolph and several other members of the House District Committee attended today's session at which other officials who testified were: sioner; Joseph C. McCaskill, Indian Bureau: Murray W.
