JAP SHIPPING
 IS HARD HIT
Yanks Raid RObaul Har- bOr; GunbOat, } Cargo
 Ships Are Hit
BY DON CAswELL

United Press Staff C0rrespOndent)
 Gen. MacArthur's Headquarters, Australia, Oct. 26 6- (UP) U Allied planes operating from the southwes- tern Pacific area in support of American forces in the Solomons have delivered another heavy blow to Japanese shipping in Rabaul harbor, bringing their bag their to 100000 tons in three days, Gen. Douglas MacArthur said today.
 Flying Fortresses swept north ward to Rabaul on New Britain Island, before dawn yesterday in their third raid on successive nights. They dropped 17 tons of heavy ex- ploSives on the harbor, definitely sinking Japanese gunboat and ser iously damaging three medium cargo ships.
 The big Boeing bombers struck at fuel barges in the harbor and dropped bombs on the Rabaul wharf area, setting off huge explosions and leaving fires that could be seen 100 miles away.
 "A gunboat was seen to sink as the result of direct hit and three medium merchant vessels-estima- te tonnage 12,00O tons-were left listing badly or afire," Macarthur said. All were believed to have been destroyed.
 "This brings the total tonnage by actual observation, completely destroyed or badly damaged in this harbor during the past three nights to approximately 80,000 tons. At least 10000 tons in addition are be- Iieved to have received more or less serious damage"
 The vessels damaged so badly they were believed to have sunk included 8 Japanese cruiser and destroyer which were bombed almost from mast-height in a daring fortress raid Friday before dawn.
 While the fortresses were winging to Rabaul, other Allied planes struck at Ravieng, New Ireland Saturday night bombing fuel dump: and an air field. One four-esnginec enemy plane was destroyed aground All OIkC kAl1C up1dA1CO 4VVuAA AAVA ACo' pite heavy anti-aircraft fire.
 Hudson bombers roared in tht other direction to strike at tht Koepang air field on Timor Island Saturday night. They bombed grounded Japanese planes anc started many fires. MacArthur said Tn the Owen Stanley mountain! of New Guinea, the land fighting was virtually static. The Allies were battling against determined resist ance of the Japanese. who were fighting from prepared position. near Alolan on the north side of tht Stanley Gap area, where the enemy had dug in.
 Douglas APO bombers made { strafing sweep along around Jap anese rear positions, at Isurva. Ko' koda and Wairopi. Results were un' observed, MacArthur said.
 Kodoka is the Japanese stront point on the north side of the Stan leys, and lies about 4,0O0 feet below the present fighting positions. Isur va is just south of Kokoda. Warop is a native village dominating tn Kumusi river area of the north sid' of the range.

Bombs Also Dropped on Jap-Eield Canton; Only Two
 U. s. Planes Fail to Return

fires were started and a loud ex- plosion was heard. The Japanese made unsuccessful attempts to drive the American planes away.
 The size of the raiding force was not revealed.
 A bomber and fighter failed to return from Hong Kong yesterday, when 20 tons fo bombs were dropped on Japanese installations. No Amer ican planes were lost today.
 The American force shot down 10 of IS Japanese planes that attempt ed to intercept, according to Stilwell who commandes American forces in Burma, China and India.
 One bomber and a fighter of the bombers' ecsort failed to return, he announced.
 Docks, warehouses and shipping were bombed severely and without air interference in the Hong Kong Kowloon area, StilWell said. Then after the bif American ships had dropped their bomb loads, 18 Jap anese Zero and I-45 fighter planes ace up and were engaged by the escorting lighters. Ten Japanese planes were destroyed.
 (Radio Tokyo, reporting the raid said the American formation com prised eight bombers which were able to drop only a few fire bombs before they were driven off.)
 Stilwell disclosed that six Amer1- can fighter planes intercepted 20 Japanese Zero and I-45 fighters, 40 miles south of Mengtsz, in southern Yuannan province, yesterday. Two Zeros and one I-45 were destroyed and four enemy planes were listed as probably destroyed. No Ameri- can aircraft was lost.
 The Central News Agency report ed that Mengtsz, refueling tlelo about 45 miles from the Indo- China frontier, was raided yesterday after noon. Six Japanese planes bombed the town, in the 20th raid of the war and the second in the last week

LACK OF GARLIC MAKES THEM SAD
GIBRALTARIANS ARE ODDITIES TO ENGLISH

They cannot get the food they were accustomed to on Gibraltar but they are gradually getting used to England's fare. The thing they seem to miss most is garlic- favored dishes.
 To England, 1t is important that these people are contented. They write to the brothers, sons and Husbands who are part of the army manning the citadel of Gibraltar Their letters home can do the British cause much good-or much harm.

rumors swept the world that this British strongpoint was next on Hitler'S list.
 So, this part of Gibraltar's pop .ulation was packed onto boats and shipped to England. They had a hard tine getting used to the tight little isNe. They were scared at first, and not gay, when they landed at Portsmouth and Plymouth. Proud to be British they were, but fright ened to be in England. GIBRALTARIANS ARE
 ODDITIES TO ENGLISH
 Blocks of London apartment buildings were evacuated for the small army and after weeks they began settling down into their new surroundings.
 To the English across the street and over in the next block they were oddities. The children, from habit, would laugh and play in parks from daybreak to sunset. And they invariably wore the neat, brightly starched suits and dresses they used to wear in their semi tropical homes.
 The Gibraltarians have evolved : a toy democracy here. They are housed in 30 centers scattered throughout the city, but their ties are as close as if they were all liv- ing on the same street. They gov- ern themselves, senior elders repre- , senting the group in discussing affairs with the twelve British gov ernment representatives assigned to see to their housing, medical and educational facilities.
 A brick-red house in Kensington is known to these people as "The Rock" It is focal point for the parents, who check their children each day in this house when they leave for work. Tn the nursery room are bright-colored rocking horses, see-saws and other toys. Ii the weather is bright and windows are thrown open, people outside can hear the children within singing "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep" Two years ago these children knew no Eng fish, but now they prattle bilingu- 1 ally.
