 A large part of the orders are from the Anchorage branch which is due to the extensive housing program in progress.

Sailor Says He Murdered Missing Man

GRAND COULEE, Wash, June 24 The body of Douglas Smith. missing for 12 days, was found near Arlington, Ore, last night, almost at the same hour as the arrest near Nespelem of James Harvey Thomas, 19-year-old sail Or who was accused of forging Smiths name.
 The two developments brought to a sudden climax a widespread nlanhunt that had moved into parts of Washington, Oregon and Idaho since the mysterious disap pearance of the Seattle motorist On June II.
 Smiths body, shot through the head, was found by a motorist beside the highway near Arling- ton. After identification, Oregon State Patrolmen estimated the body had been there for II days. Thomas, absent without leave from the San Diego Naval Hos pital, admitted his identity to Washington State Patrol Ser geant Wardall who said Thomas said he had hitched a ride with Smith and had taken Smiths car after knocking him in the ditch near Arlington.
 Smith, 26, left Wallace, Idaho, on June II going to the bedside of his sick mother in Aberdeen, Wash. He was traced to Walla Walla through credit slips, some of which were later pronounced forgeries by his father, Freeman Smith.
 Smiths car was found wreck ed near Tensed, Idaho, a week later. Officers there learned a sailor was driving it at the time of the accident.

U. Navy \
  Already Is nvoyin
By Drsw Pearson and Robert S. Allen

WASHINGTON, June 25 = A group of American naval vessels have just returned from their first experience at Atlantic pat rol and or conveying" What ever it is called, they helped to get about 30 British merchant men safely most of the way to the west coasttof Africa. There the British took over.
 Just after the American war ships left, Nazi. bombers sank four British tankers. They were big, modern tankers capable of making 17 knots, but held down to about nine knots by the slow speed of the convoy.
 The manner in which the new Atlantic patrol operates is un- ique in naval history. Here are the mechanics:
 How It Works
 U. S. warships picked up the British merchantmen in Brit ish western hemisphere port-in this case, Bermuda. Sometimes the north Atlantic route is used via Halifax, but the route is sell dom the same). Prior to that Brit ish vessels had been concentrat- ing for several weeks in various West Indian ports = wheat and meat ships, together with oil tankers. The British merchant men which awaited the U. s. pat rol in Bermuda chiefly carried munitions. Oil tankers comprised the most important part of the convoy, there being about 30 of them, a number carrying air planes on their decks.
 Three U. s. airplane carriers, six destroyers, and three cruisers accompanied the convoy across the Atlantic - but never within sight of the 30 British merchant men.
 U. s. Warships
 One airplane carrier steamed ahead of the merchantmen, an- other to the rear, another to the north. Each carrier was protect ed by two destroyers, zig-zagging constantly. The carrier perform ed the most important part of the patrol, keeping thier airplan es constantly securing the sky.
 Once a plane sighted Ger man surface raider and radioed it's position to British warships, which rushed up and sank her. The battle took place so close to American vessels that they could hear the firing, though they nev- CT saw the ships. U. s. radio oper ator picked up a distress mes sage sent to Berlin by the Nazi vessel saying that she was sink ing.
 Submarine Bombed"
 On another occasion, an air plane carrier detector picked up the vibrations of a submarine, and signaled it to come to the surface. When there was no an swer, U. S. destroyers immediate ly dropped depth charges. After that the detector picked up no more vibrations.
 Later another submarine was detected, and warned to come to the surface. It did so and prov ed to be one of the long-range French submarines the largest in existence and manned by a Free French and British crew. It carried small airplane aboard.
 When the patrol reached it's meeting place with the British near the Cape Verde islands off the African coast, it turned north and shortly after this, the 12 U. &. naval vessels headed home.
