Clark Lee reports from New York on prewar Japanese ranking of armed forces and current Pacific war strains. He notes American fighting spirit, contrasting German and Japanese tenacity, and cites Attu and other battles where Japanese resistance continues despite heavy Allied pressure.

Butter Price Protest by Texas Dairymen

The Texas Dairy Products Association filed a protest with Senator O'Daniel against a proposed price reduction by the Office of Price Administration. Telegraphic notes from J. M. E. McMurray argue that the proposed retail butter prices and storage allocations set to take effect June 1 will force small creameries out of business unless policy changes are made. They urge action to prevent ruin of producers with existing stocks and call for continued cooperation with other government agencies.
