 BLACKOUT ORDERS
Governor Asks Households CTS in State to Set Ex-
 ample for Rest of Nation

The State Defense Council spon- sored drive to get every one of the 100000 households in Connecticut to take precautionary measures against air raids and blackouts opened today with a plea by Gov ernor Robert A. Hurley, chairman of the Sta:c Defense Council. wno urged the public of the State ito set an example for the rest of the nation"
 In a statement Governor Hurley said:
 Connecticut has been a leader in the war effort from the very begin ming. In this campaign instituted uy the State Defense Council residents of Connecticut have an opportunity to set an example for the rest of the nation to get tnelr homes in order against air raids and black outs.
 "The State Defense Council has issued eight simple rules that 1t is asking all householders to observe. The purpose of the rules is to in- form them of the minimum require ments deemed necessary in every home against devastation from bombing from an enemy attack.
 "HouSeholderS who comply with the requirements will be given a Home Safety Award" emblem sign- ed by local wardens who have in- spected thep remises.
 This symbol of preparedness should be displayed in every home in Connecticut and serve as a warn ing that 1t is on guard against any diabolical scheme that the enemy may have to terrify our civilian pop ulation.
 Our armed forces are well on their way toward victory. Because of that it is all the more important that We on the home front re- main constantly alert and guard against any surprise or token air raid.
 This is no time to relax our vigil lance. The time to prepare is now"

DUNA THRUST IS
 3 MILES AWAY
Jap Machine-Guns, Nor tars Hold Up Allies
 Steady Advance
By DON CASWELL United Press Staff CnrreSnnndl

With American Forces Near Buna New Guinea, Nov. 20-tV!a Courier to Australia, No. 23-- CUP )-Ameri- can infantry thruSting at Buna was three miles away this morning, after opening an attack at dawn yeSser- day.
 GA United Press dispatch from Gen. Douglas McArthurS headquar- ters today reported some American units attacking at Gairopa Point, only one mile south of Buna,
 Japanese machine gun nests and mortar supplements on Cape En- daiadere, commanding long stretches of beach, had momentarily held up the Americans. But several American columns, converging from the south and southeast moved into position Wednesday and smashed into the enemy positions the next morning.
 The Tanks, eager for their first major clash with the enemy, crossed river at central Ford south of Endaiadere under machine gun, rife and mortar fire, They pushed right on the edge of the point and dug in,
 Another American force inland made a similar advance until they were held up at newly build Japa. nese air strip. Gater dispatches saie this air strip now is in American hands.)
 Mortars and reserve troops en. abled us to begin smashing the enemy defenses. To date we have had little air support. except for Wednesday afternoon when Martin BPS Mitchell bombers bombed En- daiadere and Japanese ground de- fense replied with about 20 bursts of fire.
 Thursday, after heavy rains all night, our troops renewed the att tack at dawn. The original plan called for bombing the enemy strong points until I'M. But the rain and a low ceiling made this impossible.
 By a. m, our mortars and ma- chine guns were blazing away all along the front. The first American wounded began coming back to the rear. Both sides, however. lacked effective artillery. The Allies used stubby mountain guns, tank guns and mortars. The enemy employed a mortar with a reported range of 4,O0o and anti-aircraft guns firing a low trajectory wiht a short fuse with explcdes the shell over the heads of our ground troops and sounds like an aX going through a three-ply door.
