Reported

HILO, Hawaii, May 19-Mauna
Loa volcano has ended two weeks
of eruption during which time the
lava cast bright glow over
BACKED out Hawaii Island which
was subjected to aerial bombing to
halt the lava flow
A lifting Of army censorship per-
mitted it to be disclosed today that
the volcano began its greatest ac-
tivity since 1881 on April 26 The
slow moving laval wall 60 feet high
and a half mile wide, finally came
to halt on May Is after eating
up the forest to within a few miles
of the Hilo water supply where it
shifted southwark.
The lava was about IL miles
from the heart of the city when it
came to stop after aerial bomb
ing on May 2 apparently caused
the collapse of the rock tubes
through which the lava had been
advancing from a vent in the noun
tainside. The molten rock con-
tinued to move for eleven days af-
ter the vent had been closed.
During the period of eruption,
enemy planes could have easily
bombed the island due to the be-
traying glow caused by the volcanoes
activity, and the islands defenders
were constantly on the alert.
