The phrase originally had been
attributed to Chaplain William

New York he denied having coined
the expression. At Washington

Message
Continued From First Page.)

OF 1895, as amended; on the pro-
curement of any article of food or
clothing not grown or produced IN
the United States or its possessions;
on the acquisition for the public use,
public buildings or public works of
American articles: or the trans
portation by sea of Navy supplies
except in vessels Of the United
States.
Early Action Urged.
II have already exercised by ex-
ecutive order the power granted
under the first War Power Act to
extend to the Government pro-
curement agencies the authority
granted to the Secretary of the
Navy to make emergency purchases
of war materials and to enter them
free OF duty. This has measure
ably assisted our war effort, but
1t only partially eliminates the OBJ
stacles prescribed by law which I
have already mentioned.
II, therefore, recommend early
enactment by the Congress of legis-
lation to the extent required for the
effective prosecution of the war, the
free movement Of persons, property
and information into and out of the
United States. I do not now recon-
mend that Congress repeal or amend
any of these peacetime restrictive
laws. 1t is my judgment that the
problem can best be dealt with by
giving to the President for the
duration Of the war, but no longer,
the power on a selective and f1exi-
BILE basis to suspend the operation
of all or any such laws, in such a
way, as to meet new and perhaps
unforeseen problems as they may
arise. and on such terms as will en-
able the Chief Executive and the
Government agencies to work out
in detail parallel action In other
countries"

HADDONFIELD, N. j., Nov. A.
Now that they've thought 1t over,
the family of 1t. Howell Forgy,
Navy chaplain, commented today
that use, of the phrase Praise the

News reports from the Pacific
battlefield area attributed to the
chaplain the famous fighting
phrase which came out Of Pearl
Harbor and became = popular bat

However, some sources suggested
that the phrase was originally used
In Civil War days.
But despite the popularity Of the
song the chaplain's parents said
they had not heard the melody until
after receiving the news that their
son had used the slogan.

Elmer Davis Explains
Late Announcement
OF Carrier Sinking
Believes Communications
Trouble Delayed Nays
Receipt Of Report
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Elmer Davis, director of the Office
Of War Information, said yesterday
he believed the Navy Department
did not receive word Of the sinking
of the second United States aircraft
carrier in the Battle of the Solo,
mons until after he had made a
statement Wednesday that all major
sinkings up to then had been an
nounced.
The Navy disclosed Saturday
night that q carrier which pre-
viously was reported severely dam
aged in action Monday was sunk
later that day. Speaking In New
York Wednesday, Mr.. Davis said
that "up to noon today, when last
talked to Navy representatives, all
sinkings of major United States
naval vessels have been reported"
When asked about the situation
yesterday, Mr.. Davis said that 1T is
my belief that the Navy didn't know
until quite recently" of the actual
loss of the carrier. He explained
that probably was due to difficulties
and restrictions on naval communi-
cations arising from battle condi-
tionS. '=+' - f~a'rs
1t is the policy Of Admiral Ernest
j. King. commander in chief of the
fleet and chief of naval operations,
to give his subordinate commanders
an entirely free hand in the course
of their operations and not to re-
quire that each development be re-
ported to Washington as it occurs
in the course of an operation. The
Navy itself did not say when it re-
ceived the news Of the sinking of the
carrier.

hit below the waterline and began
to list. The men were taken off and
the carrier sank few minutes later.
No indication has been given that
Japanese and American surface
ships made contact, but there is
possibility that they did, since the
battle extended over a wide area,
part of which was shielded by low
clouds.
Today, American scouting planes
found remnants Of the Jap fleet far
north Of the Solomons. The Japs
were headed away from the battle
area-evidently retiring for repairs
or to form for another stab at retak-
ing Guadalcanal and Tulagi islands.
One Of the Jap forces was spotted
by Army 1t. Mario Sesso of New
York, who was on the first scouting
mission in this area. 1t. Sesso and
his BIT crew saw IA japanese war
ships and were attacked almost i'm
mediately by six enemy Zero
fighters.
Fortress Guns Open Up.
As the Japs came out Of the over
cast the Flying Fortress guns
opened up and one Zero spiraled to
the sea. Two other enemy planes
were smoking A shot from a Zero
killed 1t. Sesso's bombardier.
Another Army bomber, piloted by

One Shot Down Attacking
Foe En- Route to Bomb
U. 5. Bases in Assam
3y the Associated Press.


NEW DELHI, India, Nov. 1.-Two
American pilots flew fearlessly into
an overwhelming number of jap
anese planes en- route to bomb
United States bases in Northeastern
Assam province a week ago, and one
died hero's death.
The story of the dramatic and
gallant interception reached here
last night. The Americans were
Col. Homer L. Sanders of Houston,
Tex, and Capt Charles w. Dunning
Of West Los Angeles.
They were on 4 patrol mission to
the Japanese base in Burma at
Myitkyina when they sighted a great
force of Japanese bombers and fight
ers. Not for a second did they
hesitate.
They fought the Japs. all the
way back to Assam" said It.. Col.
Samuel Moore of New York, at
tached to the 10th Air Force.
+ "Dunning fought for half an hour
until two Jap, Zeros shot him down
and killed him. He leaver a widow,
Mrs. Dorothy Dunning.
Sanders, who was group COM
mander, fought for another half
hour until he ran out of gas and
had to land. He escaped unhurt."
Col. Sanders wife is now living at
Tucumcari, N. Mex.
Both men got in some good
bursts, but they claimed no vic
tories" Col. Moore said.
Col. Moore said the Japs ganged
up on one American transport as
it was taking of and shot the tail
full Of holes, but the pilot, 1t. Joe
Walker of Doyline, La, managed,
nevertheless, to get into the air and
he landed safely at his destination

Army Planes Search
For Rickenbacker in
South Pacific Areas
Pilots Bound for Bottle
Fronts Are Directed to
Fan Out Over Sea
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
In the hope that Capt. Eddie
Rickenbacker may yet be found
alive, Army planes en- route to the
South Pacific zones have Joined
the serach for the World War ace
and his crew.
The War Department disclosed
yesterday that pilots bound for the
Solomons and other fighting fronts
In the Pacific have been directed to
create formations and fan out over
as much area as possible south Of
Honolulu In searching for the miss
ing flyers.
Northbound air traffic presumably
follows the same procedure, further
supplementing the search by sur
face vessels which started when
Capt. Rickenbacker'S plane was last
heard from by radio II days ago.
The naval search was still in prog
ress last week, but whether it con-
tinued today was not disclosed.
Although nothing has been heard
of Capt. Rickenbacker and the seven
Air Force officers and men who
accompanied him since his plane
reported october 81 that sufficient
gasoline remained for only dfie
hours flying, the War Department
has not. added them to its list of
missing. tAE
Flyers have been picked up from
rubber RATS after floating in the
Pacific for more than a month and
Secretary Stimson said Thursday he
clung to hope. Capt. Rickenback cker,
he noted, was IAN exception to the
usual rules"
The World War ace, president Of
the Eastern Air Lines, was en- route
to the Southwest Pacific as a con-
fidential adviser to Mr.. Stimson to
