SOMEWHERE IN II w All,
July 20 Delayed Completing
the most realistic and comprehen-
sive maneuverS in the history of
Hawaii, American troops today
had defeated theoretical Japanese
invaders so successfully that army
authorities declared frankly:
"Any enemy attack here can
be repealed"
Employing every modern type
of warfare tanks gas, paratroopS,
divebomberS- the three-day battle
which ragged throughout the island
OF Oahu dwarfed in comparison
any previous Hawaiian department
maneuVerS.
Mainland maneuvcrS last year,
and even the recent army war
games i'm Ireland probably were
not as intense. according to high
ranking officers.
TEST ISLAND DEFENSES
Designed to test the strength OF
island defenses against a possible
actual assault by japanese forces,
the maneuvers were utterly grim
from the opening bursts Of ma
chine guns TO the final and deci-
sive tank battle along the level
coral plains of North Oahu.
At a hidden command post high
in the desolate Koolau Mountains
your correspondent also got the
disquieting feeling h [ while
these first wartime maneuverS on
Hawaii nominally were games, -
there was reality 10 the manner
in which American troops defended
the rocky mountain trails against
the JapS.
A huge Japanese invasion fleet

Landings were established At two
beach points. Thousands of the
stunted sons of Nippon pushed
through the jungleS and advanced
along the twisting mountain trails.

The heartening news that the
Aleutian Island Of KiSks, now oc-
cupied by the japanese. has been
attacked by a strong United States
naval task force shows definitely
the magnitude Of the offensive
action in the Pacific area that has
recently been entered into by the
United Nations
The attack on kiSka is reported
TO have been very satisfactory.
The Japanese apparently were
taken entirely by surprise. so
much so that when the ships bat
teries opened up. the Japs-think-
ing IL was an aerial attack-re-
piled with anti-aircraft gun fire

FIERCE RIVER BATTLE

Is miles southeast of Armavir and
It's miles from the oil fields of

ing ahead at their former rate.
Desperate counter-attackS had
failed 10 stem the Germans.
In the kfasnodar area an I'M
usually fierce battle was raging
along river presumably the
Kuban), and Soviet artillery and
aircraft hurled masses of Germans
into The river Strong counter
attacks earlier had slowed the
Germans in that area. and they
had not advanced for "a hours.

BEWARE OPTIMISM

Every one from Washington 10
Prime Minister John Curtin Of
Australia is warning, however,
that we will without doubt suffer
serious casualties.
or course. this goes without
saying. Modern warfare of the
type now being engaged in by our
land, sea and air forces. is not
gentle game. It's rough, and II
has TO be rough.
Our enemies are little worse
than rough, and we've got TO be
still rougher.
Our marines, of course. are al
ways trained for landing opera
tons. but they have been doubly
trained since the declaration of
our national emergency, and fur
Their they are entirely equipped
for fighting of this kind.
WELL PREPARED
II looks as though our landing
operations had been successful. In
the event OF reverses suffered
however. we must remember that
such occurrences OF necessity
happen in war. but we can now
De very certain that such an eX-
petition has been well prepared
and properly equipped.
From now on we in the United
States and all citizens OF the
United Nations. including those In
occupied areas, will steadily see
more and more the results Of the
superb war effort which has beer
accomplished by President RooSc'
velt and his various staffs, both
military and civilian.

BOMBAY, Aug. 10. The gov
eminent reported rapid restoration
of peaceful conditions in India to-
day but acknowledged that serious
property damage had resulted in
some areas as a result of independ-
ence disorders in which about 70
persons were killed.
New Delhi advices were that
conditions had improved there and
in other large centers but that
damage had been serious in the
Karolbagh and Laharganj areas,
including destruction of property
Of refugees reaching India from

Fighting was spreading on the

stretches Of the Don River. South
Of Voronezh. Hungarian forces al
tackled more than ID times a day
with considerable panzers and
aircraft and some village

On the north and central sec

Russians started series OF al
.tackS that threw the enemy back
AT several points.
North of Noronezh the Russians
smashed into two large fortified
villages and took another German
stronghold

VALUE OF SURPRISE

Our naval vessels are said "a
have silenced the shore batteries.
Once more we have an example
of a surprise and an extremely
efficient blow.
Strikingly indicative Of the
true offensive fighting is the re-
port released from Washington
that the Solomon Islands opera
tons are progressing in a manner
considered 10 be satisfactory and
that United States marines on
land are engaged in hand-to-hand
fighting with japanese troops.
United Nations offenSives are
hitting at islands which are en-
tirely around the northeast corner
Of Australia.
This is almost proof positive
that our forces have struck at the
Japs because they themselves were
preparing for offensive action, and
again we have beaten them 10 the
punch.

which drove back the enemy with
heavy losses. The next morning
the Germans again attacked with
300 tanks in waves of $50. The
Russians allowed the tanks to adj
vance into a thickly sown mine
field, then opened up with trench
mortarS and artillery.
simultaneously, Soviet dive
hombers attacked and the assault
was shattered.

Average price received by Pacific

Dental electric service dropped from
Isl cents a kilowatt-hour in 1910
to 2.35 cents in 1851, reported Paul
B. Mckee, president, in his Febru-

This was a decrease of ga percent
for the year.
Average annual use per residen-
tial customer on the system increaS-
ed lib kilowatt-hours to a new high
of 1902 kilowatt-hours, approx
mately double the national average.
Direct taxes also hit a new peak,
passing the million dollar mark for
the first time and totaling S1,055 $40
for the year. This was an increase
of sos, 436 over the company's 1910
tax bill, and was 100000 more than
it paid five years ago.
Taxes in 1871 were equivalent to

Referring to the war situation,
Mckee said: 1.-The men and women
of our organization take their war
responsibilities seriously and have
done splendid job of meeting every
call made upon them thus far, not
only for electric service but also for
the many extra human services that
fall on the shoulders of able and

Lions Win Most Import
ant League Game

The Lions won their most import
ant basketball game so far this sea-
son last Friday night from the high
ly rated ProSSer Mustangs 10y a
count of 80 to 10. This victory
nearly cinches the Southern Glass
"a" title for Coach Normile's squad,
and if the boys go on through this
season will definitely be the best
season for the Lions for a decade or
more.
IF they win the Yakima Valley
crown the Lions really win one i'm
portant thing and a berth to the
Yakima Valley tournament. Incl
dentally this will be the second
straight year that Coach Normile
has TAKEN his basketeers to the
tournament in the valley.
The standing of the Kennewick
team in the Valley "a" League has
very little to do with its chances
in the tournament. This end of the
valley hasn't sent a team to the
tournament for some time. However,
the Lions hope to upset the dope
bucket in the tournament also just
as they have done all season in their
play. This Friday night the Lions
journey to Sunnyside to play the in
and out Grizzlies. The Grizzlies have
put up some fine games this sea-
sen and also some poor ones. How
ever, the Lions are looking on this
game as a tough one and are out
to play one of their best games of
the season. Word has reached the
Lions gym that Sunnyside would
consider their season definite sue
cess if they could tip the Kenne-
wick team Friday night.
The "B" team also emerge vic
torious with their encounter with
Prosser last Friday night by a score
of IS to ~. This is four league wins
for the inexperienced Lion Cubs, who
at the beginning of the season were
not counted on as even good COM
