all over"
THE whole raid plan was
drawn up by General Macarthur
and the staff" Royce said.
I'VE left Saturday but the OPP
GRAFTON actually began Sunday.
SANK TRANSPORT
First we called at Batangas,
on lower LuZOn Island. There
we sank a transport. One of the
flying fortresses went out hunt
ing Japanese warships near Cor
regidor but II didn't find any, sO
IL dropped over to Nichols Field
near Manila and left a stick OF
bombs.
ALSO on Sunday morning. me-
dunn bombers went to Cebu with
: instructions 10 bomb transports
and escorts.
Sunday afternoon we raided
Cebu again and DavaO for the
first time.
Monday morning we repeated
the attacks on Cebu and Davao,
and successfully bombed trans
ports and installations.
I'VE lost that one plane Mon
day morning. 1t had been
grounded TO have an engine
changed. The Japanese radios
had been burning up the ether
for hours, trying to find us.
"They made five dive bombing
attacks on the plane Sunday
night and eight more Monday
morning.
JAPS SCORE HIT
''They scored just one hit, hut
that set the bomber afire.
I'VE met most of the Opposi-
ton Monday.
"Under existing conditions I
consider that the risks of the
raid were fully justified"
During all their attacks. the
planes made but one at high level.
Yet despite the daring attacks at
1000 TO 5000 feet only one of the
II ships which made the round
rip was hit, and il was not seri-
)usly damaged, II was at 1000
ieet at the time.
Royce praised the performance
Of all bomber crews and revealed
that he plotted bomber for FIVE
hours himself. He could not pilot
during the actual attacks because
he had TO maintain communication
and give directions 10 all ships.
CThe British radio, paying an
enthusiastic tribute 10 Royce,
broadcast today an interview
which Royce gave British

The blue on the flag represents the heaven, white stands for purity of the people of the United States Red stands for the blood shed by the people for them country at war.
 (ResE ect)
 The flag should be flown from sunrise to sunset, except in the United Sta es capitol it Is flown day and night. On Memorial day the flag should be flown half mast till noon then raised to the top. If you have two flags on one pole the United States flag should be above the other. Old and woln out flags should not be used eth CT for banners or for any other secondary purpose. When a flag is in such condition that 1t Is no longer 8 fitting emblem for dis play, it should not be cast aside nor used in any way that might be viewed as disrespectful to the National colors, but should be destroyed as whole, privately, preferably by burning or some other means lacking iii any sug- gestion of irreverence or disre- spect due the emblem represent ing our country. In land or sea battles the flag is flown in any kind of weather. l he flag should be flown on; Lincoln's Birthday Feb. l2, Washington's Birthday Feb. p, Mothers Day second Sunday in May, Memorial Day May 30, Flag Day June IA, Il : dependence Day July 4, Labor Day first Monday in September and Armistice Day Nov.
