PEARL HARBOR, June Is
UP The third great naval
aerial battle of the Pacific war
is brewing in the foggy reaches
of the North Pacific where Unit
ed States forces are striking at
Japanese who have toeholds ON
the remote Attu and Kiska Is
lands, well informed quarters
understood today.
There was no indication yet
wether the Japanese had at
tempted to press farther east
ward but it was believed GER
tain that United States planes
we're striking at them.
EYE JAP FORCES
Informants here believed thu
Japanese had sent a naval force
and a transport borne troop
force to the Aleutian zone, and
that at least one aircraft car
rier was included, with q cruis-
er-destroyer escort and several
Transports.
1t was known publicly hero
that the United States has con-
siderable air strength based on
the Alaskan area.
1t was believed that If the
Japanese provoked a new en-
gagcment in the Northern Pa
cific. they would be likely -
make a simultaneous thrust In
the central or southern Pacific,
from bases in the Carolina,
Mariana and Marshall Islands,
in an attempt to split the United
States forces.
SEE NEW BATTLE
If they attempted to push
farther east in the Aleutian
chain toward Alaska, inform
ants said, they would provoke
a new major battle which
would probably develop into q
hide and seek engagement duo
TO the prevalent fogs.
The Japanese are thoroughly
familiar with the area, due to
their years long fishing oper-
atoms in which naval officers In
disguise took part in order to
obtain information.
1t was agreed here that Japa-
nese possession of Attu and
Kiska would present little threat
to the American bases to tho
east.
