touch with Detroit coastguard

more about IL than anyone else.
For two days now he has
wished, maybe little bit under
his breath. that nobody thought
he knew anything.
STORM OF QUESTION
Not only was he besieged on
all sides last night but all day
esterday his phone at the Ma
comb Laboratory where they
turn out spare dining room fur
|niture for mouth denuded OF
teeth was ringing an accom-
paniment TO the plants and
queries of anglers and boatmen.
Between Zines o trying TO mold
an artificial bicuspid to the
specifications before him, he
was trying to make an angler
understand why Uncle Sam
doesn't want him TO troll with
his artificial minnow In the ship
channel Of Lake st. Clair.
II was confusing.
Meanwhile Earl Golf, local
conservation officer. was stay
ing away from home and letting
his wife tell the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth

All Mrs. Golf said was that
she didn't know.

TYPICAL QUANDARY
One of the most typical plain
tiffs in regard to the somewhat
scrambled situation regarding
angling and boating was Harvey
Brockman. one of Macomb coun-
tvs veteran bartenders who pi-
lots Schooners over the bar
nights and his 22-foot launch
over the fishing grounds days
when Uncle Sam lets him.
Just answer me this" Har-
vey said TO his devoted help
mate this morning when he came
home from bartending: How do
go fishing today when l have
to let a guy know seven days
ago where I am going, when I
am leaving and when I'll be
back? There's too much red
tape. Say, ! want to go fishing
next week and | have to serve
notice today. How do | know
what the weather's going TO be.
I'm not an almanac for any
body. Who's going to go to all
that trouble for a mess Of
perch?"
AND THIS, TOO
Added TO Harvey's woes was
the new regulation that provides
that after April %, 1943, you
can't use pillow type life pre-
servers in 22-foot launches.
/ In. his state Of mind Harvey
didn't realize that his present
equipment has almost year to
go.
Meantime, and with various
interpretations of the new rules
anticipated from many quarters
in many quarters, Macomb
county fishermen figured their
best and safest bet was TO angle
off docks, in aquariumS, and
fish ponds at church bazaars and
do their boating in the bathtub.

communicating today in a
Crimean preliminary to vast
spring engagements which Lon
don observers expect to involve
about 4,500,00O Germans and T.

Moreover, there were Axis ac-

against Kharwox, Donets Basin in

Bucharest advices relayed by the
Vichy radio said Soviet armored
forces, following artillery prepara-
ton lasting until Monday midnight,
had launched an offensive at the
German defenses of Kharkov from
three sides, north, east and south.
The German radio asserted today
"all these thrusts collapsed and
that mopping-up operations yielded
several hundred prisoners.

sacrificed $4,000 men, including
units reserved for their much-ad-

Allied Planes Strike
All Japanese Bases
North Of Australia
II Aircruft Are Believed
Smashed in Attack on
Koepong, Timor Airport
BY the Associated Press.

MELBOURNE, Australia, April
Limited States and Australian
bombers, operating in the face of
heavy tropical storms, struck de-
structive new blows at two jap
anese bases north Of this conti-
nent today.
A communique said it was believed
six enemy planes were destroyed on
the ground. six others were dam
aged and many fires and explosions
were touched off by Australian
bombers which attacked Koepang,
on Timor, while an Allied force
scored numerous hits with heavy
bombs on an airdrome runway at
Salamaua. New Guinea.
This continuation of the aerial
offensive by Australia's defenders
came on the heels of an official re-
capitulation listing 80 enemy planes
as put out of action in three days.
Four were reported destroyed. IS
probably destroyed and 11-includ-
ing four flying boats machine-gun-
ned in a previous raid on Koepang-
as damaged.
All these attacks were made with
out loss to the United Nations cir
forces.
Optimism Growing.
There was growing optimism
among Australian observers that
the Japanese now can be held of in
New Guinea, although they were
cautious not to overemphasize the
enemy's recent withdrawal from the
inundated Markham Valley.
Nevertheless, they said, the with
drawal means that Japan's hold
now is confined to the narrow
coastal strip where her position
may be made precarious. The vital
point, in these informants' view, is
that the Japanese now cannot dis
perse their planes-which was seen
as a prime goal of the march into
the valley.
The arrival of the wet season,
which lasts three months, was ac-
cepted as the chief cause for the
withdrawal, but it was believed also
that heavy air blows struck at the
invaders shipping and planes were
another factor.
The New Guinea correspondent Of
the Sydney Sun, citing the japanese
failure to raid Port Moresby for the
last six days, declared that the in
vaders had been forced on the de-
fensive in that area.
While he also stressed the enemy's
heavy plane losses, he pointed out it
would not be wise to accept the pres
ent lull in offensive action as any in
