SIGNIFICANCE REVEALED

Significance Of the attack lies in
the serious Gripping OF most stra-
tegic bases in a manner which II
is believed will hamper vital enemy
operations in almost the whole
mid-Pacific area. The degree OF
surprise almost equaled the sur
prise AZ Pearl Harbor.
A spokesman disclosed that our
force struck slmul-
taneously in the various islands at
SIS a. m. at selected locations
where the Japanese for years have
been making military installations
with utmost secrecy.
At Roi in in Kwajalein. he said,
the fleet found an excellent air
base and a modern village as well
as an impressive causeway be-
tween two small islands.
The air base. paved runwayS
and hangers were modern.
During bombsrdments one Of
the hangers blew up with IAN
amazing and pulling explosion -
which may have been due TO the
fact that the hangar contained
planes armed with bombs or stores
Of gas. -.----
