experts suggested that 8 small land- ing strip which the Japanese were believed to have built on the island for their Zero fighters had been de- stroyed, or seriously damaged.
 The Navy, in communique last night, was careful not to claim that the Japanese had been driven off Attu and Agattu. It said only that reconnaissance by our aircraft has failed to detect any signs of con- tinued enemy occupancy or activity" on those islands for several weeks.
 The Navy also revealed details of the last raid on Kiska last Monday by army Hberator bombers, escort ed by fighters.
 They dropped many demolition and incendiary bombs on the camp area" the communique said. Hits were made on the seaplane hangar, and six enemy seaplanes were shot down all of our aircraft re- turned"
 Army aircraft bombed Attu in the latter part of September, demolish- ing most of the buildings there. A study of photographs made at the revealed no trace of the enemy either on Attu or Agattu.
 Since American bombing of those two islands hmas been infrequent and comparatively light, it was un- likely that the Japanese were "driv- en out". It was suggested that they may have moved out or over to Kiska because they didn't want to sit around on few rockpiles do- ing nothing.
 Attu is the most western of the islands in the Aleutian chain. It is about 20 by 35 miles in extent and is indented by many bays and inlets. There are mountains 5000 feet high on it.
 Agattu lies about 50 miles south east of Attu. Both are between ITS and 200 miles west of ,Kiska and about 450 miles west of the new American bomber base in the An- dreanof islands.
 Japanese occupation of Aleutian islands to date has been a costly venture. American forces have destroyed at least 40 enemy planes since the battle of the Aleutians be- gan and American aircraft and submarines have suny 13 enemy ships, including one cruiser, and six destroyers; probably sunk three more, and damaged 9, including thre destroyers and four cruisers.
 No American naval surface forces have been used in the battle.
 Some sources here predicted that the Japanese would make every effort to hang on to Kiska to "Save face" at home even though the present strategic situation appears to be all in favor of the Americans. As of today, however, the Japanese Aleutiap campaign can be consid- cred a bad military investment and whatever the enemy hoped to ac- complish by the early summer in- vasion has not borne fruit.

 BRITISH CAPTIVES.
Those Taken in Dieppe Raid ShackIed; Called
 RetaIiatOry Move

London, Oct. 8-(UP)-The Ber- lin radio announced today that the Shackling of British prisoners taken in the raid on Diepre had started at noon today (6 a. m. E WT).
 Britain had announced that, if the Germans carried out their threat in retaliation for the alleged lettering" of German prisoners, it twill have to consider its future action"
 A Berlin broadcast said: "A Brit ish answer to yesterdays German high command announcement re- garding the treatment of prisoners was regarded here as unsatisfactory.
 Consequently reprisal measures threatened yesterday were carried out"
 This meant that the Germans were going to shackle the helpless British prisoners taken at Dieppe.
 The government had offered to permit the Swiss legation as agent for Germany to interview German prisoners in Britain who were ready to affirm that they had been in no way ill-treated.
 An expert in international law said that lettering of British prls- oners vas contrary to the prisoners of war convention of ig2e signed by 0rsmany at Geneva. fie said that the convention made no mention ef tying prisoners at the time ef thelr capture.
