Patterson said today, "there doesn't seem to be any sav- ing of brass in brass hats." Patterson made the remark in telling a press conference that substitution of plastic for brass in uniform buttons is expected to save 365,000 pounds of the metal this year. "Incidentally," he said, " "brass hat' in the last war meant only a staff officer. What it means now, I'll leave to you."

DEWEY APPROVES FISCAL MEASURES Albany. Jan. 21. (AP)—Gover- nor Dewey: signed into law today bills permitting quarterly payment of state personal income taxes and advancing the fiscal year opening from July 1 to April 1. The measures, the first sighed by a Republican chief executive in 20 years, launch a contemplated streamlining of state government. Sped through the Republican- dominated legislature this week despite minority opposition, the tax measure dates payments on the 15th of April, July, October and January, effective this year. Heretofore one-half of the state levy was due April 15, with subse- quent payments June 15 and Oc- tober 15. The other law ends the present fiscal year March 31 and elimin ates $120,000,000 of 1942-43 appro priations. Republican fiscal experts said the advanced date would make the April 1-June 31 period of heaviest tax collections the first instead of last quarter, thereb putting the state on a nearly cas basis. h Nazi Casualties 750,000 London, Jan. 21 UP)—Reuters quoted a Moscow radio broadcast today as saying that German cas- ualties on the Soviet Russian front in the past six weeks totaled 750,000 men, including 250,000 dead.

The latter stipulated that the operation in question was an abortion. Judge Cautions Jury The evidence, Superior Judge Leslie E. Still cautioned the jury, was introduced solely for the pur- pose of showing the state of mind and motive of the witness in giv- ing her testimony. "Did you not request the district attorney's office that they would not prosecute that man?" Giesler asked her. "And did they not promise they would not prosecute that man if you testified in this case?" Miss Satterlee said she had made such a request but had been given no such assurance. "They told me it would not be brought up," the witness replied. "You knew the operation you had was a criminal act, didn't you?" the attorney asked. "Yes, sir," she replied. Knew Prosecution Possible "You knew the district attor- ney's office could prosecute for such a criminal act?" "Yes, sir." "You knew they could prosecute not only you but that man?" "No, sir; I didn't think of it." Under the same ruling, Miss Satterlee testified that she had been in constant custody of vari- ous policewomen since last fall, and had been taken to picture shows, cafes and for bowling, and on a 10-day trip to San Francisco All this, she said, was without expense to her, but she explained later that the cost of the San Francisco trip was paid by the policewoman who accompanied her. The officer's husband, a Navy man, was about to be ordered to other duty, and she wished to spend Christmas with him there. Versions of Age Differed Giesler obtained admissions from Miss Satterlee that in obtaining work at various theaters and dancing and eating places, she had ^iven her age as-leVor in places The Federal Communications Commission has announced that the American Telephone & Tele- graph Company will reduce Its long lines revenues by an estimat- ed $50,700,000 yearly, of which $34,700,000 will be an immediate saving to the public. No reduction will be made in the charge for the Initial three minutes of long-distance telephone calls, but the overtime charge will Kg cut At present the charge for each additional minute is one-third of the charge for the first three min- utes, but under the new rate* the charge will be one-fourth. The agreement calls for cancel- lation of an investigation ordered last November into charges of AT&T's long lines department. Olfford Comments In commenting on the agree- ment, President Walter S. Gif- ford said: "It will be noted that no reduc- tions in basic message rates are to be made and that the reduc- tions agreed to were those least apt through stimulation of busi- ness to add a further burden to the already overloaded long-dis- tance lines. The extraordinary volume of long-distance business and the overloaded condition of the long-lines plant have resulted, I in all probability only temporarily, in a rate of earnings for the long- lines department of the company which is in excess of the average for the Bell Telephone System as a whole. "The . long-lines department rates are under the exclusive jur- isdiction of the Federal Commun- ications Cammisslon, which has jurisdiction over interstate rates only^The commission insisted that the earnings from such rates should be considered by them- selves regardless of over-all sys- tem earnings and insisted that, when so considered, they produc- ed a rate greater than could be justified. "The reductions in rates were agreed to by the company because of this position of the commis- sion, which the company believes is unsound under present condi- tions, but which the commission considered is within its discretion; and because the company felt it important to have the rate pro- ceedings discontinued so that it could get on with the business of helping win the war."

She said also that her state driver's license, which she used in establishing her age, gave it as 18. Giesler asked her if, in discus- sing the case of Betty Hansen, 17, the complaining witness in the third charge of statutory rape in- volved in the present trial, "you said in substance, *my mother once took Mr. Flynn into court, claim- ing he had raped me, but I didn't want her to because it was not true.*" The witness frowned and made emphatic denial of any such state- ment. Peter Stackpole. photographer for a national picture magazine, testified of his visit to Flynn's yacht while Miss Satterlee was a guest aboard, and of escorting her to her home upon their return to the mainland. He said he had been assigned to obtain photographs of the actor spear-fishing, and that it had been suggested some girls be included in the pictures. Miss Satterlee's parents, Mr. and Mrs. William C. Satterlee, and her sister, Mickey June, two years her senior, were summoned as to- day's first witnesses. The deputy district attorneys said the state would probably have about half a dozen others, most of them testi- fying only briefly.

Mayor Fiorello M. LaGuardia is among the New York witnesses requested to testify tomorrow. Chairman Connally said the com- mittee would continue to ask for voluntary appearances by witnes- ses, in probing Republican charges filed against Flynn but that sub- poenas would be resorted to if ne- cessary. Daniels' telegram said: "His knowledge of the spirit of America and American traditions, his charm and personality and his whole-hearted devotion to winning the war admirably fit him for the duties of the diplomatic post to which he has been named by the president. "I am sure he will represent our country in that strategic area in such a manner as to make Ms rep- resentations worthy of his coun- try." BUY WAR BONDS—"We can- not have all we want If our sol- diers and lailort are to have all Fighting French Make Contact With British London, Jan 21 UP) — Allied forces closed in swiftly on Tripoli from the east and south today as Fighting French troops from equatorial Africa joined with the British 8th Army in speeding Field Marshal Rommel's retreat toward Tunisia. The news the Fighting French had made contact with the British after sweeping northward across hundreds of miles of Libyan de- sert was disclossed last night in a communique from Brig. Gen. Jacques le Clerc's headquarters. Le Clerc said his troops now were "brilliantly taking part with their British allies in the advance on Tripoli," moving steadily for- ward on the 8th Army's flank, thus compressing Rommel's flee- ing Africa Corps into a narrow strip along the Mediterranean coast. The Fighting French maneuver, effectively sealing the arc which the Allies had thrown around the Axis forces in North Africa, was regarded here as a death blow to any hope Rommel may have en- tertained of making another stand against the 8th Army somewhere east of the Tunisian border. Dispatches from Cairo indicated British troops probably were with- in 35 miles of Tripoli this morn- ing with one column moving for- ward along the coast and another advancing further inland. The Berlin radio, apparently preparing Axis listeners for the fall of Tripoli, reported last night the city was ablaze from contin- uous aerial bombardment. Allied advances, meanwhile, said. Axis troops and equipment already were streaming westward from Tripoli toward the Tunisian fron- tier some 100 miles away. Allied airmen were reported making a shambles of the enemy's line of retreat, and a 50-mile stretch of coastal road between Tripoli airtr Zuara was said to be littered with tlie wreckage of trucks and other equipment. Violent fighting, meanwhile, continued in central Tunisia, where strongly reinforced German troops smashed at French posi- tions southwest of Pont du Fahs in an apparent effort to remove any overland threat to commun- ications between Tunisia and Tri- politania. The French acknowledged yes- terday they had fallen back about seven miles in this sector to new itions in the valley of Oued eblr. Allied sources believed there was little danger of the Germans attempting to push on farther, however, because of the danger of Allted forces moving east from Bou Arada and cutting the road behind them. , Should Rommel abandon Tripoli without a fight, It was believed he would make directly for the Mareth line, which the French built before the war inside the Tunisian frontier. The line was posi Keb they need" • Franklin D. Roosevelt, taken over by the Italians in 1940.
