for an Allied offensive threatening
their entire position in New Guinea.
To the east of New Guinea, Allied
heavy bombing planes yesterday at
tackled a japanese cruiser and
transport off Rabaul, New Britain
Island, but bad visibility prevented
observation of results.
A Japanese dispatch broadcast
by Tokyo radio, indicating the COM
pletely changed picture of the situ-
alton in the northeastern zone, as
serted this morning that British
Australian" attempt to land a small
naval force in New Brain Island had
failed when a submarine transport
ing the troops had been sunk.
Tokyo said the alleged attempt
had been made recently under cover
of darkness. A Japanese naval unit
which sank the submarine took the
landing party prisoner, it claimed.
Tokyo said the landing party, ap-
parently intended to carry on guer-
rilla warfare, had a powerful short
wave radio.

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 81 Behind
the screen: One prominent movie
maker who has been impressively
commissioned by the Army got into
his uniform the other day and
motored to local airport to meet
a group of high-ranking officers.
A couple of studio underlings stood
by to watch their big boss render
a snappy salute to his military su-
periors.
1t didn't happen that way,
though. When the visistors arrived
the movie executive merely BEAM
ed at them and chirped, Hi fellas!'
The studios have been squab-
bling for film titles containing the
term "Commandos", and all the
producers were caught flat-footed
when news of the Allied raid at
Dieppe told of the participation
of Rangers from America. Some
of the Commando pictures now in
preparation will be retitled, and
scripts are being revised.

IL he mad the chance.
He said that at Abbeville, the for
tresses had wiped out the airplane
dispersal area. smashed 40 grounded
planes. and blown up ammunition
and fuel dumps. That was the sec
ond raid. In the raid on Letrait
about one-third of the harbor slip
ways were destroyed.
The fortress men said they had
been remarkably lucky in that even
the few bombs which went astray
had hit military areas. At Letrait,
one sank a new German submarine
and another sank a cargo ship. A
third hit at the intersection of five
roads. A fourth hit an Oil refinery
and blew it up.
At Abbeville a stray bomb blew
up an antiaircraft battery. Two
stray bombs struck the -Abbeville
airdrome runway and destroyed two
Focke Wulff fighter planes which
were taking off.
"The Germans have got to get
better planes than they have now
If they want to shoot down a for
tress," said Maj. Paul w. Tibbetts,
81, Miami, Fla, former Cincinnati
medical student. The old fortresses
are built like Brooklyn bridge. They
fill us full of holes but they can't
shoot us down."

U.S.. bombers Set
Fire to fobruk

CAIRO, Aug. 2l-CUP)-United
States four-engined bonbers set
fires in the Axis-held port of Tobruk
last Friday and Saturday nights
that could be seen for GO miles, it
was revealed today.
The United States airforce, work.
ing in close cooperation with the
RAF, took advantage of the perfect
desert moonlight to give Tobruk,
chief port of supply for the forces
of German Marshal Erwin Rommel,
two of the severest aerial gatherings
administered since the enemy
gained control there last spring
The Friday night raid was direct
ed against supply dumps. jetties,
and shipping in the harbor.
Imperial Valley press., 1942-08-31

was announced today.
Reports indicated that Allied
forces might soon take the offensive
against the two other big enemy
bases in the island.
Gen. Douglas Macarthur an
nounced in a special communique
that force of Australian shock
troops had been secretly concen-
trated along the bay in anticipa-
ton of the japanese landing last
Wednesday morning.
The result was that the japanese
landed in a trap. The Australians
ripped them to pieces. A few were
believed to have been evacuated by
cruiser and eight destroyers which
entered the bay Saturday night un-
der cover of bad weather. The re-
mainder have been thrown back to
the narrow 35-mile peninsula on
the north side of the bay where they
