5 British Ships Sunk, Nazis Say (Continued from Page Onel covered by the British RIFT REPORTED Japanese Premier Said to Have Lost 'Face' With Emperor CHUNGKING, Dec. 30 (U.R) Reports of a widening breach between Japanese Premier General Hidekl Tojo and Emperor Hirohito reached Chungking today amid indications that Japan's war lords are taking an increasingly grave view on the war outlook for 1944. Information received here in the past few weeks indicated that fantastic claims of victories in China and the Pacific have entangled Tojo in a web of contradictions and caused him to lose "face" with the emperor. These advices suggested that Hirohito finally discovered he had been deceived about the extent of the Japanese "victory" at Chang-teh, where repeatedly ''annihilated" Chinese forces finally defeated an invading Japanese column. Tojo and his cabinet members, it was reported, were pointedly excluded from an imperial dinner party tendered last week for 38 important officials all moderates with the exception of former War Minister Sadao Areaki.

It was pointed out thaf cabinet members customarily are invited to imperial functions and their exclusion could be regarded as a sign of the emperor's displeasure. Meanwhile, Axis broadcasts revealed that Japanese authorities, despite their optimistic statements about Japan's strength, have ordered the immediate evacuation of all unessential civilians from Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe and other principal cities in anticipation of heavy air raids.

"I decided she had been unfaithful to me, so I picked up a shoe and struck her with it until she didn't move, but I loved her," police quoted Wolfe.

After the slaying Wolfe telephoned police and told them he had just killed his wife. When detectives arrived, Wolfe was waiting for them. On the bed, fully clothed, was the body of Mrs. Wolfe, a former Viennese actress. Her head had been bashed in in several places.

The shoe used in the killing was steel-tipped and a shoe tree had been placed inside it. MILTON SOLDIER GERMAN PRISONER Mrs. Thelma O. Thurston, Milton, yesterday received a message from the War Department at Washington, D. advising that her son, Private First Class Russell J.
