Giles Hubbard
30 Suns Mate
in Coast Guard

For Giles b. Hubbard, of 2O8
Cass avenue, recently appointed
boatswain's mate in the u. S.
Coast Guard Reserve, the job
of skippering the coast guard
cutter in inland waters should
be relatively simple.
After all, Hubbard shipped
with the five masted sailing
schooner Bark Monongahela for
Australia when he was only 16
years old and he repeated the
trip last year on the City of AL
bernie, also a sailing schooner.
Since that last trip to Aus
tralia Hubbard has been assoc
lated in business with his father,
Duncan B. Hubbard, Mount
Clemens funeral director. He
plans to resume his occupation
once the war is over.
For the duration, however,
Hubbard and his crew of five
men will patrol section of in
land water, the location of which
must remain an official secret.
Hubbard was Mount Clemens
High school junior when he
shipped as donkeyman on the
Bark Monongahela in 1927. Re-
turning a year later, he COM
pleted his high school educa-
ton and later won a diploma
at Ohio Wesleyan University at
Delaware, Ohio.
The second trip through mine
infested waters required only
nine months. The boat carried
lumber to Australia and re-
turned with sugar picked up in
the Figi Islands.

London assessed results of bold

Daring Raids
BY DEWITT MACKENZIE

Bombs over Japan-flaming
promise of a better world, free
of barbaric aggression.
Judging from Tokyo's own
accounts, this visitation of long
armed justice upon the assassins
of Pearl Harbor was no flash in
the pan but thoroughly organ
ICED affair. That adds TO its i'm
portance, as signalling that the
Allies are beginning to hit their
stride.
This historic raid-Which the
Japs at first attributed to uniden-
titled planes but lated credited to
American bombers appears to
have been carried out on a large
scale. War planes sWooped
down on the Mikado's domains
from several directions to strike
at numerous cities, including the
capital itself, and thus give the
Nipponese their first expert
ence of this nerve-shattering
type of warfare.
The indignation expressed by
the high-minded japanese over
what they characterize as indis-
criminate bombing needn't
cause the American public any
uneasiness. Tokyo and the 9TH
er cities bombed are filled with
military detectives.

Crafty, pro German Pierre

the fate of France today amid

pointed by reports of wide

among the French population.
Hailed in the official Vichy
press as a "fervent patriot" La

policy which was awaited with
ominous misgivings in Allied

Washington advices said La

already planning to unseat him,
and that the new premier was
prepared to go the limit in fore
ing the conquered nation to col
laborate with the Nazis.
simultaneously, new bellig-
erency in the French m d
forces was reflected in reports
from Casablanca, French Moroc-
co, stating that French fighter
planes took to the air yester-
day when a British bomber cir
iced ever the naval base and
airport and then flew off.
