"It's possible but not probable" Knox told a press conference, "because rigid United States patrols are working day and night." The Japanese have not been reported landing more troops on the embattled island since their great and unsuccessful drive almost two weeks ago to land huge forces and overwhelm the American defenders of the airfield there.

Island Force Cut Off Prior to the big push, the Japa nese had the method of feeding in an average of about 900 men every second night, landing them from cruiser-destroyer groups. It was this practise that Knox was asked about at his press conference and his answer clearly indicated a belief that at least for the time being the Japanese troops on the island, principally to the westward of American positions, are virtually cut off from the rest of their forces in the northeastern Solomons. Knox said the Americans meanwhile were continuing to widen their area of control, particularly by pressing back the enemy forces on the American western front. He confirmed that fighting has been going on to the westward cf Point Cruz, which is a little more than four miles beyond the airfield. Three Per Cent Held From the extreme of this action on the west to the farthest point cf action on the east flank at Tetere.

where a Japanese force of several hundred men was wiped out early this month, is a distance of approximately 16 miles, while the depth of the American-held area at the center around the airfield is about four miles. This expanding territory, however, is still less than three per cent of the entire island cf Guadalcanal, officers at the secretary's conference brought out. Knox was asked" whether the objective of present operations was finally and completely to drive the Japanese out of the island, but confined himself to responding that elimination of the enemy from Guadalcanal naturally had always been the American purpose.

4 Liberal Servings COB CUT CORN nc 19c 25c Machias, Me. (AP) The fragrant balsam trees you once saw stacked on rolling flat-cars as a Christmas holiday harbinger will travel under wraps this year because of the war and there'll be fewer available. Christmas trees don't come under, the heading of military secrets, but they'll go to Eastern and Mid-Western markets in box-cars because the armed forces need the flats. The balsam fir and spruce trees cutting and selling them has been a 10 million dollar business in the nation will be ready for their gay light lights and bright tinsel in better condition, however, as they weather the travel better in closed compartments, shippers said. Flat cars were less costly.

Maine railroad officials said they would be able to move as many trees as ever ordinarily one mil- ilion are hauled from the states woodlands and pastures but they probably won't have to because there aren't enough hands available to keep the axes swinging.

Curry and Bride Visit in Monticello Monticello (Staff) Sgt. Joseph Curry, who is stationed at Camp Crowder. and his bride, the former Miss Jewel Briscoe, Goopaw, have been spending several days with Ser-. geant Curry's mother, Mrs. Lilly Curry, in Monticello.

Sergeant Curry was the first selective service man sent from Piatt county, having volunteered. grizzled "Christmas tree king" of Maine who has been helping to decorate the yuletide living room for 20 years, said his cutting will be off a third this year because the war and defense industries have taken up many Down East 'men: He usually sends out about 100 carloads of 3,000 trees each. Labor costs have soared, Morang said. Last year top wage for his crewmen was S3 a day. This year the rate is S5 to $6, with few tak ers.

tree men paid their help nine, cents a bundle of four to five trees each in past years, that's up five cents this year, with a good man able to fell 300 trees a day. Stumpage costs, paid to land owners by contractors for cutting rights, have mounted from 10 to 12 cents a tree paid last year to 15 cents. "The retail price probably will be more than double this Morang estimates. Last year, "a bull year" for the business with trees aplenty, retail prices ranged from 25 cents to $150.
