L Aumack Home A fter Dodging Jap Bombs, III Health for 2 Years Pursued by Japs and ill health for. their raids betqreen 11:19 and 1 p. m. nearly-two years, Raymond L. Au-j Mr, Aumack sald-he had his closest mack of l l l AIden street returned call with (the'Japanese army at the home Friday after spending nearly,River Salween where the Japs were a year working .on the Burma Road fighting op dn‘e sidd of the river and in Burma and China and 'several t the Chinese on the other. The local months , as an instructor to Chinese resident had to^burn his truck, equip- soldiers in a motor school in the jungles of India. Although invalided home on the U. S. S. West Point in September, the local resident; who has spent the past two and a half months convalescing in the Billings General Hospital at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Ind., is now able to get. around with the aid of a cane. . ' In an interview with a Citizen and Chronicle reporter this week, Mr, Aumack related many of his-harrow- ing experiences which started almost at the outset of his trip two years ago. Leaving here on November 1, 1941, an h member of the U. S. Government Military Mission to China, since des- ignated as the United States Techni- cal Advisers, Mr. Aumack and - 45 other engineers sailed from San Fran- cisco to Hawaii and the Phillipines on the S. S. President Grant. - ~ Due to.a sudden switch of plans; the mission' changed to the S. S, President Madison in Manilla and they were only one day out of that port when news was received that the Japs had invaded the island. It was fortunate that the engineers changed boats, Mr. Aumack.related, for as far as he knows, the S. S. President Grant never got out of the Manilla harbor, ___ -.. In Borneo, the members of the mis- sion pitched ln and palnted the Madl- sdn grty. While the >hip was docked in Borneo; word came that the Japs Ceylon, a Jap sub shot a poorly-aimed . torpedo at the Madison.. 1 I ■ Whlie anchored at Java, Mr. Au- mack recalled that his party heard a Japanese-broadcast in English to the effect that a Jap sub had torpedoed and sunk the Madison and all mem- bers of. the American. Mission had gone down with the ship. ' The party then headed for. Cal- cutta but was ordered to backtrack 1,400 miles to Madras when the Navy detected ty/o Jap subs lying in wait for the convoy of which, the Madison, was a park The. mission arrived-in Madras on January 15, 1942, and went by train to Calcutta. From Calcutta, the party was.'taken by plane to Lashio, Burma, the lower end of the Burma Road, arriving there on Jan- uary 27. The Burma Road extends from Lashio’ for a'distance-of 750 miles to Kunming. ' 1 ’ The mission split into groups and the groupi’of which the local resident was a part started work on January 30 at. Tougoo. Taken ill there, Mr. Aumack was moved, to Mandalay where on February 14,. 1942, he had his'first taste .of-Japanese bombing, which was to become almost a daily occurrence for him a few weeks later. The local resident spent about* a month and’ a half on the lower end of the Burma Road, now occupied by the Japs, during which the Jap bomb- ire came over almost daily-' and usu- . at about--the.same time.; Mr, umack recalled, that, thiy. •timed' ment and spare clothing at that point in order that It .wouldn’t fall into the hands of the invaders. - From May until November of 1942, Mr. Aumack worked on the upper end of the road, at Fao Shan, Tsu Yung, Hsla Yung and Kunming. While working along tills stretch of the road, the "local resident jumped into a trench filled waist-high with green slime-during an air raid. A piece of shrapnel grazed the top of his broad.rain hat which had dropped down on his back as he slid into the trench. ...From what he saw of the Jap bombers, Mr. Aumack said they, were not so accurate, and far more civi- lians than soldiers were killed by their bombs. He related that traitors and spies aided the-enemy by placing mirrors near military objectives, but more often than not, the .bombers would overrun their targets and un- load their bombs pn towns and vil- lages. The Budda priets were the blggets traitors and troublemakers in Burma, Mr. Aumack asserted, but intimated that- most. of them. had been “eliminated.” ' From China, the local resident was sent by plane to India where'he was stationed at a Chinees "training cen- ter in the Jungles teaching motor me- chanics to Chinese soldiers. While on this assignment, Mr. Aumack was taken 111, last March 23, He was taken to an American base hospital at finally brought home. He estimated that he had travelled more than 75,- 000 miles. Mr. Aumack wasihigh In his praise of the Chinese, declaring they are doing a “fighting Job.” ’INjHen he first went to-China, he recalled, it'was not uncommon to see an infantry unit of 1,900 men marching to the.front with only-'509 guns. Through the lend-lease this has now been elimi- nated and the - Chinese are fully clothed and armed and they know how to use their weapons, It is Mr. Aumack’a opinion that Burma will be retaken within six months and he believes that after tHis is accomplished, the American, British and Chinese forces will really “gplo town.” The retaking of Singa- pore by the United Nations also ia essential to opening supply lines to China and the East.------ --- -------- : Service Men Here : - Service men may be entertained in 'Cranford'over the Christmas holiday by those, resdents desiring to open their.’homes to one or more of toe men, it was announced yesterday by Mrs. Roderick Smith, Cranford chair- man of the entertainment committee in this area.

Despite the work of the committee during-tlie: past week, ihe,.hard -coal.j --.. sltuation here remains acute, with only a three days’ supply, at the most, in local, yards, Mr. Sykes declared his committee, is doing everything possible to secure the release of ad- ditional coal in order that no Cran- ford family will go cold. The three cars promised here are for the Reel-Strong, Lehigh Coal and Loveland Coal companies. However, it’jpay be a few days before the cars arrive. ' Each car contains 50 tons, but it was pointed out this will ac—7 commodate only a small percentage of the orders which each of the deal- ers have on hand. . The situation was. somewhat re- lieved earlier this week by the-ar- rival of three or four cars of coaL The dealers who received - the coal were faced with another obstacle __ shortage of manpower to unload the ears—and.the new Coal Committee obtained temporary help. The committee has established its headquarters in the office of Mr. Moo- tenecourt, dlrectorof rtlier, at'2"Al- den street, where emergency cases will be handled. Only persons who are out or almost out of coal and are not able to obtain fuel through their - usual sources, are to contact Mr. Mon- tenecourt. Each case will be thor- oughly investigated, and an order for nn allotment of coni will be given. It was.stressed that contacting Mr. Mon- tenccourt’s office should not be con- fused with asking for relief, as tbe - committee chose that office because of the existing facilities available. .

R. L Aumack Hom e A fter Dodging Jap Bombs, III Health for 2 Years

Pursued by Japs and ill health for. their raids betqreen 11:19 and 1 p. m. nearly-two years, Raymond L. Au-j Mr, Aumack sald-he had his closest mack of l l l AIden street returned call with ( the'Japanese army at the home Friday after spending nearly,River Salween where the Japs were a year working .on the Burma Road fighting op dn‘e sidd of the river and in Burma and China and 'several t the Chinese on the other. The local months , as an instructor to Chinese resident had to^burn his truck, equip-soldiers in a motor school in the jungles of India. ’

Although invalided home on the U. S. S. West Point in September, the local resident; who has spent the past two and a half months convalescing in the Billings General Hospital at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Ind., is now able to get. around with the aid of a cane. . ■ '

In an interview with a Citizen and Chronicle reporter this week, Mr, Aumack related many of his-harrow- ing experiences which started almost at the outset of his trip two years ago. Leaving here on November 1, 1941, an h member of the U. S. GovernmentMilitary Mission to China, since des­ignated as the United States Techni­cal Advisers, Mr. Aumack and - 45 other engineers sailed from San Fran­cisco to Hawaii and the Phillipines on the S. S. President Grant. - ~

Due to .a sudden switch of plans; the mission' changed to the S. S, President Madison in Manilla and they were only one day out of that port when news was received that th e Japs had invaded the island. It was fortunate that the engineers changed boats, Mr. Aumack.related, for as far as h e knows, the S. S. President Grant never got out of theManilla harbor, ___ -.. •

In Borneo, the members of the mis­sion pitched ln and palnted the Madl- sdn grty. While the >hip was docked in Borneo; word came that the Japs

Ceylon, a Jap sub shot a poorly-aimed . torpedo at the Madison.. 1 I ■

Whlie anchored at Java, Mr. Au­mack recalled that his party heard a Japanese-broadcast in English to the effect that a Jap sub had torpedoed and sunk the Madison and all mem­bers o f . the Am erican. Mission had gone down with the ship. '

The party then headed for. Cal­cutta but was ordered to backtrack 1,400 miles to Madras when the Navy detected ty/o Jap subs lying in wait for the convoy of which, the Madison, was a park The. mission arrived-in Madras on January 15, 1942, and went by train to Calcutta. From Calcutta, the party was.'taken by plane to Lashio, Burma, the lower end of the Burma Road, arriving there on Jan­uary 27. The Burma Road extends from Lashio’ for a 'd istance-of 750 miles to Kunming. ' 1’ The mission split into groups and the groupi’ of which the local resident was a part started work on January 30 at. Tougoo. Taken ill there, Mr. Aumack was moved, to Mandalay where on February 14,. 1942, he had his'first taste .of-Japanese bombing, which was to become almost a daily occurrence for him a few weeks later.

The local resident spent about* a month and’ a half on the lower end of the Burma Road, now occupied by the Japs, during which the Jap bomb- ire came over almost daily-' and usu-

. at about--the.same tim e.; Mr, umack recalled, th a t , th iy . • timed'

ment and spare clothing a t that point in order that It . wouldn’t fall into the hands of the invaders. -

From May until November of 1942, Mr. Aumack worked on the upper end of the road, at Fao Shan, Tsu Yung, Hsla Yung and Kunming. While working along tills stretch of the road, the "local resident jumped into a trench filled waist-high with green slime-during an air raid. A piece of shrapnel grazed the top of his broad.rain hat which had dropped down on his back as he slid into the trench....From what he saw of the Japbombers, Mr. Aumack said they, were not so accurate, and far more civi­lians than soldiers were killed by their bombs. He related that traitors and spies aided the-enemy by placing mirrors near military objectives, but more often than not, the .bombers would overrun their targets and un­load their bombs pn towns and vil­lages. The Budda priets were the blggets traitors and troublemakers in Burma, Mr. Aumack asserted, but intimated that- m ost. of them . had been “eliminated.” ' ’

From China, the local resident was sent by plane to India where'he was stationed a t a Chinees "training cen­ter in the Jungles teaching motor me­chanics to Chinese soldiers. While on this assignment, Mr. Aumack was taken 111, last March 23, He was taken to an American base hospital at

finally brought home. He estimated that he had travelled more than 75,­000 miles.

Mr. Aumack wasihigh In his praise of the Chinese, declaring they are doing a “fighting Job.” ’INjHen he first went to-China, he recalled, i t 'was not uncommon to see an infantry unit of 1,900 men marching to the.front with only-'509 guns. Through the lend-lease this has now been elimi­nated and the - Chinese are fully clothed and armed and they know how to use their weapons,

It is Mr. Aumack’a opinion that Burma will be retaken within six months and he believes that after tHis is accomplished, the American, British and Chinese forces will really “gp lo town.” The retaking of Singa­pore by the United Nations also ia essential to opening supply lines to China and the East.------ --- -------- :

Despite the work of the committee during-tlie: past week, ihe,.hard -coal.j --.. sltuation here remains acute, with only a three days’ supply, at the most, in local, yards, Mr. Sykes declared his committee, is doing everything possible to secure the release of ad­ditional coal in order that no Cran­ford family will go cold.

The three cars promised here are for the Reel-Strong, Lehigh Coal and Loveland Coal companies. However, i t ’jpay be a few days before the cars arrive. ' Each car contains 50 tons, but it was pointed out this will ac—7 commodate only a small percentage of the orders which each of the deal­ers have on hand. .

The situation was. somewhat re­lieved earlier this week by the-ar- rival of three or four cars of coaL The dealers who received - the coalwere faced with another obstacle__ •shortage of manpower to unload the ears—and.the new Coal Committee obtained temporary help.

The committee has established its ’ headquarters in the office o f Mr. Moo- tenecourt, dlrectorof rtlier, at'2"Al- den street, where emergency cases will be handled. Only persons who are out or almost out of coal and are not able to obtain fuel through their - usual sources, are to contact Mr. Mon­tenecourt. Each case will be thor­oughly investigated, and an order for nn allotment of coni will be given. I t was.stressed that contacting Mr. Mon- tenccourt’s office should not be con­fused with asking for relief, as tbe - committee chose that office because of the existing facilities available. . Facilities of the police and fire' de­partments have been’ placed a t the committee’s disposal In conducting investigations. - /

Folowlng last Thursday night’s • meeting, which was called by M ayor George E. Osterheldt at the sugges- tlon of Governor- Edison, and was a t­tended by Health Officer W. J.

As a result of«the telegram, CoL Schoeffel'sent a State Trooper here on Saturday, and wth Mr. Sykes, In - spooled the coal supply in local yards- ’It was found that the total;kupply l a - the five local yards was between 50 and 75 tons of domestic-size fuel.

Keep W ellWith a large number of local people

confined to their homes with grippe and in* ifuenza this week, we can be thankful that the epidemic bears little reaemblance to the Spanish Influenza, plague that brought deathto many tbcrusanda of citizeiisofthe country during the first world war. The current .disease, also known as "cat fever" to its vic­tims in this part of the country, is seldom fatal and is hardly of longer duration than the common cold. •

Nevertheless, influenza is causing a large amount of absence in local schools,

—business firma and war plants and phyteicians are hard-pressed to care for the many people confined to their beds with high fevers and. respiratory infections. Cold weather has added to the problem as exposure to the damp air and w.ork in drafty buildings has weakened the resistance of many people. .

Preventive measures will atop the -spread-of-t he ..influenza,if. residents are carev ful to take precautions to avoid illness. Long hours of sleep, good nourishing food, plentyv of fruit juices in the diet and a temperature of 65 degrees or over in the home or office ■ will build a fine resistance to the. disease. Sufferers will find speedy recovery if they go to bed and do not neglect to rail a physi­cian at the first sign of fever. ‘ '

The best method of preventing the spread of influenza is to keep away from crowds and especially to avoid those already infected. People should yoluntarily remain away from targe gatherings except when necessary and should avoid coughing and sneezing in public.

government has failed to squarely face infla­tion and labor problems, just as Britain failed to face the growing might o f Hitler. Our government, after a long record of silent en­couragement of Jabor lawlessness, delegated to a single agency, the War Labor Board, the responsibility of restraining labor organiza­tions that had learned the effectiveness of brute force—strikes. < ~

The cord miners struck and com­pelled the government to seize the coed mines nnd give in to-their-wage<demands...>.in:the expediency of the moment, the rights of the coal mine owners were sacrificed, even as the rights of small nations were sacrificed at the whim of Hitler.

In approving the contract, the industry mem­bers of the WLB warned: "We know that _ _the circumstances of the last several jiiOjitHbf schopi through March, have raised around this contract many far- reaching questions of government policy.These larger questions of government pol­icy, die solution of which unhappily has been too long deferred, will now, we hope, befaced and solved.” .... •

Tokdn'Rationmg Announced; System Begins February 27Token rationing, which will cu t*

down the large Sjonount oi paper work now dope b y tiw banka la t t e trans­actions Involving ration itamps, win tygin on February 37 of next year, it was announced this .week by Erye U. Hutson, rationing field represen- £ tw e-urfb tf’O PA ^'lfew aik ■‘district office. The procedure was announced last 'Friday night at- a meeting in Elizabeth of representatives of food panels from Union and Essex Coun­ter. ' *

When the plastic tokens are issued all stamps in .W ar Ration Books 3 and 4 will assume a point value of 10, regardless o f the number written on the face of the stamp. Shoppers will then receive change' for the units in the plastic tokens, red for meats, rat, butter and .cheese and blue for all processed foods. The tokens will have a single point Value and w in remain valid indefinitely.-,, • -

For convenience of consumers,. stamps will become.valid horizontal­ly instead o f vertically and thus blud stamps A-8,' B-8, C-8, 0 -8 and; E-Q will be used beginning February "37. They will afemaln in use until May 20 and on April 1 blue stamps F-8, G-8, H-8, J«^< and K-8-,will go into-use. Meat points' wiiLbe used in the same manner, th irty points' worth bein^ valid every- two weeks. This is a sUght reduction.in meat point quotas since "16 points a week are now al­lowed. . : . ' . ’■ The new system will not only re­lieve the banks of paper work but

will simplify the work of the retailer and make the point allotments more understandable to ,th e shopper. If a householder has 6 stamps, she will have 60 points worth of buying power for that period. -

Retailers 'of processed foods and meats are now applying for the tok­ens, which will be issued th an on February 2. Application blanks may be obtained at the National Cash Reg­ister Company’s branch at 265 North Broad street, Elizabeth.

The tokens will come in- packages of, 250 each and stores without ra­tion banks will replenish their sup­plies by turning in sheets of 25 food coupons, each worth 10 units.

U. J. C. Holds Studen t Council Elections

Five members of the student body! a t Union Junior College, -Joseph Young, Etta Edgecomb, Catherine Small, Jack Allan and Norman Ross, were elected, to the Student Council of the college last week in one of thel quietest elections in many years. Noj opposing candidates presented peti­tions and the election was termed un-l an iipous^T hqr.yrere candidates of the American Party. '

Campbell Thompson, president at the Student Council, has announced that the Council will meet this week] to elect ‘officers. Policies for the] year will be formed and U.ia hoped that some extra-curicidar activities] will be planned. With most of the students engaged in work Outside a t School hours there has been little interest in outside activities this year.

I t will have to be "Family Hold Bark” on -the usual bong Distance p tm a m ai gyw^ifig calls this year If the telephone road- home is to* be kept open for sons and daughters loway in military sendee. •.

Voice highways will be crowded and travel difficult in any event, the New Jersey B d l Telephone Com­pany says. Last year’s record volume W o v e r io e ,e o o x « M , Distance-calls in New Jersey on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day included many which were completed only after houra of delay. Public response to -th e corii- pony’a appeal to forego use ..of..the Long Hines for customary greeting Icalls was a real factor in mak ing it possible' to get nearly all calls

[through. ,Ths year, traffic engineers of the

[company expect that greater war ac tivity, and the fact that- Christmas I falls on a week-end, win combine to produce an even larger-volume of calls on December 24 and 25. The [thousands of addltionSl “Christmas circuits" which in peacetime would be placed in service to help carry the Itxafi&c are now in daily use the year 'round, and no others are available.

I t aU adds up to this, the company [says: Unless - the folks back home yield the long distance highways dur­ing. the holiday week-end to war calls and. warriors, some of Ameri­ca’s so b s and daughters .in uniform a re going to be disappointed when they try to come home by telephone.
