Hideki Tojo in his capacity as war minister warned the Japanese people today the United Nations were preparing to deliver counter-blows of "great importance," and said the signs were that "the real war is starting from now." The grim little premier's address, delivered before the Japanese Diet and broadcast by the German and Japanese radios, emphasized the "unimaginable privations and difficulties" being encountered by the Japanese forces in the Aleutians and appeared obviously aimed to remove any thoughts of an early victory from the minds of the Japanese people.

"Everyone will not get as much of every kind of food as he or she wants. There may not be as much pleasure in eating but there will be enough for an adequate and healthy diet. "Canned fruits and vegetables, and dried fruit are among the foods most needed by our fighting men and our Allies. Next year half our production of dried fruit will go abroad to save shipping space.

Monday, Dec.

28 Soviet troops were declared today to have sealed the pocket enclosing the German siege army of more than 300,000 men before Stalingrad in a gigantic advance toward the northern Caucasus and the Ukraine that killed or captured another 4,200 invaders and overran scores of additional centers Sunday. Southwest of Stalingrad on the eastern side of the lower Don River, the midnight Soviet communique announced, the Russians captured many inhabited places, among them 10 "large localities" and two railway stations and drove to the Don bank where they occupied Potemkinskaya. Almost paralleling this smashing onset, the Soviet offensive in the middle Don region, which already has regained more than 30,000 square miles of territory, advanced to points within 100 miles north of Rostov, gateway to the Caucasus, end shot a spur south westward to within 45 miles of Voroshilovgrad, center of the rich Donets Basin. Nazis Flee in Panic On both these fronts many thousands of Germans and their lite troops were fleeing in panic to escape encirclement after the Russians cut across the strategic Stalin -grad-Likhaya railway at Tatsinkaya where they had captured 350 Nazi planes in working order, as well as vast quantities of other material. The capture of Potemkinskaya, 85 miles southwest of Stalingrad, completed the southern "wall" of the Russian ring around some 330.JOU Nazi troops penned in between the Volga and Don bends.

Potemkinskaya lies 25 miles west and somewhat north of Kotelnikov-ski. 90 miles southwest of Stalingrad, upon which a large, decimated German force is falling back while suffering "huge losses," according to the official midnight bulletin. The communique announced Red army advances of frorr. six to ten miles southwest of Stalingrad Sunday and gains of from 32 to 39 miles in the past four days. 23 Tanks Destroyed "During the day (Sunday) our trocps destroyed 23 tanks and wiped out 2,509 German officers and men," the announcement related in reference to that front.

"Fifty-five guns and several hundred prisoners were taken." The communique quoted one German prisoner as stating that the 23d German Tank Division, involved in the rout of the Nazis above Kotel-nikowski after it tried to break through the Russian ring around the Nazis in the Stalingrad area, had "lost nearly all of its equipment."

On the eastern end of the Allied North African pincers, Gen. Sir Bernard L. Montgomery announced that his Eighth Army had chased German Marshal Erwin Rommel "well to the west of Sirte." about 220 miles east of Tripoli. (The Allied-controlled Morocco radio was heard in London early Monday announcing that the bulk of Rommel's Africa Corps was now streaming into Tripoli itself. Tripoli is about 120 miles west of Misurata, where latest previous reports had placed the Rommel army.) French Forces Strike (According to United Press, the Exchange Telegraph News Agency in London heard a Brazzaville (Fighting French) broadcast tonight which said that forces from French Equa- torial Africa, coming from the direction of Lake Chad, had established contact with the Axis in the southern part of the Libyan desert and had put to flight an enemy motorized detachment.

Prior to his illness several years ago, Mr. Ramsey was one of the most active residents of Arden in the operation of the town. He regularly took part in the town meetings and was chairman of the Townsmen for many years.

He was also a director of the Arden Club. Active in Civic Affairs He was active in civic affairs of this city and in 1932 was elected president of the Social Service Club. In 1931 he was appointed secretary to the commission named by former Gov. C. Douglass Buck to conduct a survey into the cost of county government.

Mr. Ramsey was interested ln breeding shepherd does and was elected secretary of the German Shepherd Dog Association of America in 1933. He was also a member of the Shepherd Dog Club of Pennsylvania. Prominent in Research Mr. Ramsey organized the Taxpayers Research League in 1926 and served as executive secretary until the organization ceased to function.

Prior to that he was assistant secre tary of the National Municipal League and associate editor of the National Municipal Review For nve years ne was secretary of the Bureau of Municipal Research of i Philadelphia and a member of the vjovernmentai Research Association. 1,1 1-H ne was a member of the managing committee of the gene'al section of the Chamber of Com- merce.

Suggested by One Safety Unit; Other to Take Action Members of the Bureau of Police have rejected revisions in their pension plan as proposed by Herbert D. Brown, an actuary on pen sion plans and firemen will also; oppose the suggested changes in their retirement system, it was i learned from department employes yesterday. Policemen held two meetings last week when the proposed revisions were discussed and, according to a spokesman, the suggested changes were turned down.

An -official in the Fire Bureau said that a survey has shown that firemen likewise have rejected the plan and that official action will be taken by them at future meetings. Oppose Larger Contribution Chief opposition it was pointed out was that Brown's plan calls for contribution by the firemen and policemen of 5 per cent of their salaries toward pension retirement payments. At present the police contribute 2 per cent and firemen 1 per cent. Police officials point out that the" members of that department favor continuation of the present pian, with the city appropriating sufficient funds for the pension fund in order to place it on a stable basis. One member of the bureau said tha't an appropriation of $60,000 might suffice for both bureaus.

City Council now appropriates $8,000 annually to the police pension fund while the firemen receive $5,000 annually. Submitted to Directors The report by Brown has been submitted to the mayor and City Council and the directors of the Department of Public Safety. His plans also call for the city to make up the deficit in the police pension fund, whatever it may be. The survey was made by Brown after pension trustees of both funds appeared before Council and asked the city to appropriate more money to prevent the funds from becoming depleted. The directors have approved the plan.

Lighter traffic on the nation's highways due to tire and gasoline rationing contributed to the fact that 233 were killed in motor accidents this year compared to 334 traffic 'victims in 1941.

The opposite was true, however, in fatalities from other causes, 149 dying in mishaps in the home or elsewhere as compared to 87 a year ago. California recorded the most deaths this year 45, of which 34 died in traffic accidents. Illinois was second with 32 fatalities.

Cites Russian Menace But Tojo's harsh reminder that Japan is "engaged day and night providing against air raids and preparing for future war developments" probably made the far deeper Impression on his auditors, who have become accustomed in the past year to a steady diet of reported victories. The ever-present threat of Russian Siberia to the Japanese was tacitly acknowledged by the premier in his promise to the people thai their forces had been strengthened on the Soviet border.

"The defense of our frontier in the north of Manchukuo has been further strengthened." he said, "in view of the continually changing world situation, so that the undisturbed progress of the Eastern Asiatic war is guaranteed." Russia and Japan are uneasily bound by a treaty of non-aggression, but the Japanese are aware of the aerial proximity of their cities and industries to the big Soviet air base at Vladivostok in Siberia.
