Fisher, president of the Association of State Civil Service Employees, said today. He said the cost of living has risen more than 10 per cent in the last eight months and is still rising at the rate of more than one per cent per month. Fisher advanced a proposa under which salaries of state employees would "rise as the cost of living rises and fall as the cost of living falls." Increases woul< be based upon need and given to employees in the lower bracket! at a higher proportionate rate than to employees in the higher brackets. Adjustments proposed are 10 P r cent on salaries below $2,000: per cent on salaries from $2,000 to $5,000, and 2Vi per cent on salaries over $5,000. Two Yean Ago Today .

A subsequent Navy communi- que added the fifth probable sinking. Allied Ships Unscathed MONDAY — American Flying Fortresses sunk a large Japanese transport and scored a direct hit on a cruiser. Dutch planes scored four direct hits on two Japanese cruisers and one transport. United States naval forces scored five torpedo hits on the Japanese flo- tilla, and inflicted other damage by gunfire. Three enemy planes were downed. A Netherlands sub- marine sank one enemy destroyer and scored a torpedo hit on a de- stroyer. The detailed accounts listed only two probable sinkings and 16 damaged ships, but the Allied su- preme command in the South Pa- cific yesterday made the "con- servative" estimate that probable sinkings up to then numbered four; and the ships damaged "no less than 12." Five additional hit vessels have been reported since. A^subsequent U. S. naval commu- nique added a fifth probable sink- ing. One amazing feature of the first 72 hours of the running battle was that the American and Dutch attackers came off virtually un- scathed. Only one warship sus- tained slight damage, and no air losses were reported. The exact destination of the big Japanese invasion fleet was not known. It may have been bound to reinforce the Nipponese troops already holding beacheads in east Central Borneo. It may have been proceeding to the southeast tip of that island to make new landings.. Or it may have been the spearhead for a bold Japanese surprise thrust at the Dutch Island stronghold of Java. However, the evidence seems overwhelming that the enemy armada ran into trouble almost as soon as it was well within the nar- row Strait of Macassar which separates Borneo from the Island of Celebes. For the first time since the war's outbreak a Japanese force of im- portant size was caught without the previous advantage of air su- periority, and suffered devastat- Ingly for the error. Five Enemy Planes Downed The enemy was not completely without air support — one com- munique told of five out of 12 Jap fighters being shot down in an Un- successful attack on a formation of U. S. Army Flying Fortresses— but the forces operating from Jap- anese-held airdromes in northern Borneo and northeast Celebes evi- dently were inadequate to chal- lenge the American-Dutch team effectively. The U. S. and Netherlands bombers and fighters were believ- ed to be operating from the secret Jungle flying fields which the Dutch have prepared in Borneo, Java, and perhaps in the Celebes. There was some speculation here that the Allies purposely per- mitted the enemy convoy to pro- ceed unmolested until it had reach- ed the position in the strait where it rou Id be cut off and ambushed. For the capital, the damaging blows dealt to the enemy in the Macassar Strait were most wel- come news after long weeks of repeated reverses. Admiral Hart Astute They also proved that Admiral Thomas C. Hart, commander of the comparatively small Asiatic Fleet, showed astute foresight when he avoided battle against foolhardy odds during the early days of the Philippine invasion and kept his command intact to fight Oneida Castle PRINCIPAL LISTS HONOR STUDENTS Oneida Castle, Jan. 26 — The principal of Oneida Castle School has announced this honor roll for the first term: Grade eight, War- ren Strong, Barbara Helmer, Breta Jane Stewart, Vivian Ellen, Doris Aldrich, Marie Reed and Olga Keyes.

Corner Dominick •••• I M M M M K In its Jubilation over the battle of Macassar Strait, Washington did not forget the smashing suc- cess of General Douglas MacAr- thur in hurling back yet another major Japanese drive to over- whelm his little army holding Ba- tan Peninsula on Luzon Island In the Philippines. The heavy reinforcements which the enemy kept pouring into the (Philippines were eloquent of Tokyo's anxiety to crush resist- ance there as soon aa possible, re- gardless? of the cost, and thereby secure Nippon's left flank In the drive southward. _ fc _. However, there was apprehen- sion over the heavy losses which the War Department laid had made possible MacArthur's latest victory over the Invader. The cap- ital realized tomberly that Mac- Arthur's manpower is limited, and that the greater hit casualty lists the nearer the Japanese approach to their objective. The twin battles In the South Pacific—tma on Batan Peninsula and the other in Macassar Strait stole the week-end limelight from the Rattle of the Atlantic. However, all was not quiet on that front, for an AxU submarine sank the Norwegian tanker, Varangcr, yesterday off Sea Isle City, N. J.

Boost in Pay Advised For State Employees

Salaries of state employees "cannot be permitted to remain stationary while salaries in priv­ate employment constantly rise with the increased cost of living," Harold J. Fisher, president of the Association of State Civil Service Employees, said today.

He said the cost of living has risen more than 10 per cent in the last eight months and is still rising at the rate of more than one per cent per month.

Fisher advanced a proposa under which salaries of state employees would "rise as the cost of living rises and fall as the cost of living falls." Increases woul< be based upon need and given to employees in the lower bracket! at a higher proportionate rate than to employees in the higher brackets.

Adjustments proposed are 10

Pr cent on salaries below $2,000: per cent on salaries from $2,000

to $5,000, and 2Vi per cent on salaries over $5,000.

RIFLECLUBBREAKS EVEN IN MATCHES

Oneida, Jan. 26 - - The Oneida Rifle Club broke even in matches over the week. They took a Na tional Rifle Association League match with the Adam Plewacki Post, American Legion, Buffalo, in a two position match by the score of 1494 to 1453.

This error was not discovered until after the presentation of the medals at the shoot. The recheck showed that Sergt.

rCONTINUKD FROM PAOE ONE) 12." A subsequent Navy communi­que added the fifth probable sinking.

Allied Ships Unscathed MONDAY — American Flying

Fortresses sunk a large Japanese transport and scored a direct hit on a cruiser. Dutch planes scored four direct hits on two Japanese cruisers and one transport. United States naval forces scored five torpedo hits on the Japanese flo­tilla, and inflicted other damage by gunfire. Three enemy planes were downed. A Netherlands sub­marine sank one enemy destroyer and scored a torpedo hit on a de­stroyer.

The detailed accounts listed only two probable sinkings and 16 damaged ships, but the Allied su­preme command in the South Pa­cific yesterday made the "con­servative" estimate that probable sinkings up to then numbered four; and the ships damaged "no less than 12." Five additional hit vessels have been reported since. A^subsequent U. S. naval commu­nique added a fifth probable sink­ing.

One amazing feature of the first 72 hours of the running battle was that the American and Dutch attackers came off virtually un­scathed. Only one warship sus­tained slight damage, and no air losses were reported.

The exact destination of the big Japanese invasion fleet was not known. It may have been bound to reinforce the Nipponese troops already holding beacheads in east Central Borneo. It may have been proceeding to the southeast tip of that island to make new landings.. Or it may have been the spearhead for a bold Japanese surprise thrust at the Dutch Island stronghold of Java.

However, the evidence seems overwhelming that the enemy armada ran into trouble almost as soon as it was well within the nar­row Strait of Macassar which separates Borneo from the Island of Celebes.

For the first time since the war's outbreak a Japanese force of im­portant size was caught without the previous advantage of air su­periority, and suffered devastat-Ingly for the error.

Five Enemy Planes Downed The enemy was not completely

without air support — one com­munique told of five out of 12 Jap fighters being shot down in an Un­successful attack on a formation of U. S. Army Flying Fortresses— but the forces operating from Jap­anese-held airdromes in northern Borneo and northeast Celebes evi­dently were inadequate to chal­lenge the American-Dutch team effectively.

The U. S. and Netherlands bombers and fighters were believ­ed to be operating from the secret Jungle flying fields which the Dutch have prepared in Borneo, Java, and perhaps in the Celebes.

There was some speculation here that the Allies purposely per­mitted the enemy convoy to pro­ceed unmolested until it had reach­ed the position in the strait where it rou Id be cut off and ambushed.

For the capital, the damaging blows dealt to the enemy in the Macassar Strait were most wel­come news after long weeks of repeated reverses.

Admiral Hart Astute They also proved that Admiral

Thomas C. Hart, commander of the comparatively small Asiatic Fleet, showed astute foresight when he avoided battle against foolhardy odds during the early days of the Philippine invasion and kept his command intact to fight

In its Jubilation over the battle of Macassar Strait, Washington did not forget the smashing suc­cess of General Douglas MacAr­thur in hurling back yet another major Japanese drive to over­whelm his little army holding Ba-tan Peninsula on Luzon Island In the Philippines.

The heavy reinforcements which the enemy kept pouring into the (Philippines were eloquent of Tokyo's anxiety to crush resist­ance there as soon aa possible, re­gardless? of the cost, and thereby secure Nippon's left flank In the drive southward. _fc_.

However, there was apprehen­sion over the heavy losses which the War Department laid had made possible MacArthur's latest victory over the Invader. The cap­ital realized tomberly that Mac-Arthur's manpower is limited, and that the greater hit casualty lists the nearer the Japanese approach to their objective.

The twin battles In the South Pacific—tma on Batan Peninsula and the other in Macassar Strait

stole the week-end limelight from the Rattle of the Atlantic. However, all was not quiet on that front, for an AxU submarine sank the Norwegian tanker, Varangcr, yesterday off Sea Isle City, N. J. Forty survivors have reached shore from the ship, the »ixth to be sunk in East Coast waters since Jan. 14.
