He is a graduate of Fort Collins High school. Myrtle street, who been serArthur H.

Johnson, former associate professor in the veterinary division at Colorado State college, is now instructing soldiers of the Chinese army in the care of transport animals, he tells friends at CSC in a recent letter. The mountainous country where he is now stationed reminds him of Colorado, Captain Johnson writes.

Prices of food to which Americans are accustomed, Captain Johnson reports, are "fabulous." A pound of coffee costs approximately 6,500 Chinese dollars. For a steak one must pay 110 Chinese dollars and for a can of tobacco about 500 dollars. The exchange rate varies from 20 Chinese dollars to one American dollar to 80 to one. He had had plenty of Chinese food, Captain Johnson said, but he missed the dairy products and sweets familiar in American diet. Dr.

Gunder Will Work for Army Following acceptance of a research position at the Army's Aberdeen proving grounds in Maryland, Dr. Dwight Gunder, instructor of mathematics and civil engineering at Colorado State college, plans to leave for his new posts in the near future.

Charles Tresner officiating. Interment Grandview. FORT COLLINS EXPRESS-COURIER FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1943 Russian Pushing Troops West Continued From Page 1 The reported Russian gain in the Zhitomir area would mean an 1 overnight advance of Gen. Nikolaf Vatutin's First Ukrainian army of 18 miles and place the Russians within 70 miles of the old Polish frontier. Railroad Cut Altogether, General Vatutin's army yesterday overran more than 100 towns and villages, in its deepest westward drive of the campaign, a Soviet communique said.

Henry C. Cassidy, Associated Press reporter in Moscow, said "traffic is about at an end of the Korosten-Zhitomir sector of the railroad." The German communique asserted Nazi and. Rumanian troops had halted Russian attempts extend their bridgeheads around Kerch in the eastern Crimea and had thwarted efforts to reinforce the red army already on the eastern shores of the Black sea peninsula. Fierce Fighting at Kiev Berlin said also the Germans had beaten back a Russian effort to cross the Dnieper river in the marshes around Nikopol, where the Germans hold their lone bridgehead on the east bank of the river. In the area of Kiev, the battle in the depths of the salient is continuing with undiminished violence," the German communique said of the major Russian attack: 60 to 75 miles west "South- of the Ukrainian, capital.

west strong Soviet attacks collapsed while further south German counterattacks succeeded in retaking several villages. Heavy Casualties "North of Chernigov (in the Gomel area), the impetus of enemy attacks decreased as a result of heavy casualties. Nevertheless, there was embittered fighting." The Germans also reported heavy Russian attacks repulsed northwest of Smolensk and near Nevel, where the Russians" tried to widen their salient, especially north and south of the city." County Tax List Lowest in Years Because of higher incomes among farmers and larger ries being made by persons who have gone into war work, the delinquent tax list released today by the county treasurer's office contains the fewest names in many years. The list is only about half as long as the one published last year. Another factor which makes the list shorter, it was said at Treasurer C.

S. Ickes' office, is that the Home Owner's Loan corporation and the Federal Land bank, as well as most of the building and loan companies, now pay the taxes on property on which they have loans. They have not always followed this practice. Floor Completed In Plane Hangar Laid in four days, a concrete floor has been completed today in the new hanger at Christman field, scene of Colorado State college and local war training service of the Civil Aeronautics authority, G. W.

Scott, co-ordinator of the flight program, announced. The new hanger floor is one of three major improvements recently completed at the field. Other work included the graveling of a runway and repair of the airport road. An average grade record of 97,3 was set by the last graduating class at the field, Mr. Scott said.

"Until," they said, "an accur. ate and comprehensive travel time study has been made it will be impossible to determine whether the future terms will be the same as those now in effect. If it should be found, as a result of a travel time study, that terms less favorable to the miners than those now in effect must be laid down with respect to some or all portions of the industry, another issue of compliance may be presented which will determine finally whether or not the present powers of to deal recalcitrant unions. government are adequate The Courts BOYS HELD Sheriff's officers reported today that they had brought here six boys reported to have been disturbing the peace in the Campion area last night.

Mrs. James Clark, a niece, and Raymond Kissock, her nephew, survive her here, Fire Chief Warns About Dangers of Winter's Heating "War has brought new fire dangers to many homes," Fire Chief T.

P. Treadwel warned today in discussing the hazards of wartime heating. "Take the case of someone who has converted from oil to coal," he said. 1. "Maybe he used to fire a coal furnace years ago, but now he's a little rusty at it.

He should get an expert to show him how. Many coal gas plosions are caused by faulty banking, and a draft that isn't regulated right can cause the furnace to overheat and start a fire." Arrange Supply Among other precautions that should be taken, the fire chief pointed out, is arrangement whereby extra supplies of coal are placed in a bin so that the coal first laid down is the first used. "If you plan to use portable electric, gas or kerosene heaters during cold spells, see that they are in good condition or have them repaired," Chief Treadwell advised. "And when you use them, make sure they are not too close to woodwork, curtains, or furniture, or in places where they are likely to be upset." Chimney Dangers The fire chief also had a word of warning about the "old stand. by" dangers of winter heatingcracked or dirty chimneys and flues, defective furnaces and burners, hot pipes in contact with exposed woodwork, inadequate insulation at the point where the smoke pipe enters the chimney, dry wooden shingles, improper storage of hot ashes and embers, fireplaces without screens, faulty storage of fuels and the "insane" use of kerosene to quicken a fire.

Starvation in India Seen By Former CSC Man In a letter to friends in the veteraniary medicine division of Colorado State college, where he was formerly a faculty member, Lt. Robert W. Davis tells that he has been stationed for several months in India. During a month which he recently spent in Calcutta, Lieutenant Davis said that although there seemed to be plenty of food at his hotel, from the hotel windows he could see natives who were dying of gradual starvation. In Calcutta he was stationed at the institute of tropical diseases.

Lieutenant Davis is now stationed in Assam, the jungle province near the frontiers of China, Burma and India. At the time that he last wrote he was recovering from a recurrent attack of malaria and dengue fever, A recent letter from Lt. Jean Flint, another former member of the faculty of the veterinary medicine division at CSC, said that he also is now stationed in Assam. Poll Tax Bill OK'd WASHINGTON (P) -The antipoll tax bill, regarded as a lighted fuse for a certain Senate fillbuster, was reported favorably today by the Senate judiciary committee.

Plans Jobs Here After War Continued From Page valves which the company is making under contract was turned out. AL Workers Busy Reports from the Colorado Motorways depot. indicated that fully as many United Air Lines workers, of whom about 350 live here, boarded their Cheyennebound buses for work yesterday as is usual. Outstanding among postwar manufacturing possibilities which have been considered by the NCM company's directors, Mr.

Markley said, is the Giddings feed grinder, developed and patented by the late F. D. Giddings, whose death in 1936 left his son, Denis Giddings, as head of the Giddings machine shop, which was utilized by the NCM company in developing the city's new war industry. This is a machine for mixing and grinding poultry and livestock feed which is believed likely to find an increasing demand after the war, Mr. Markley said.

It has been produced in the Giddings shop for several years. Growth, Possible He suggested that a major industry may be developed on this basis, through mass production and formation of a sales organization. Market price of the machine might be $1,250, Mr. Markley suggested, adding his opinion that an "unlimited demand" could be uncovered through adequate sales promotion. Among several other possibilities considered by the directors is a patent for a gunsight developed by the elder Giddings, the patent being held by the company.

With about worth of and other orders coming in, the Navy valve contracts, on hand company is bidding for still more war contracts. Denis Giddings is superintendent of the plant.
