SCRAP-Our column last week
brought several calls regarding the
why's and wherefores Of the drive. We
think you should know that one call
came from Mr.. Calls of the Mountain
Lake school. He informed us that
there is a scrap heap at the school
house, also that any person calling
him or any of the pupils that they had
scrap it would be collected and put
on the school scrap heap, which would
later go to the junk man. In other
words the school and the teachers
want to cooperate with the citizens.

MuseIier Bombed Strange Kind
Of Italian Whale Before War
This Type Comes Up at Night, Dseorees
Fuel OIL His Report to Admiralty Soid

The admiral began by speaking
of his lifelong friend, Jean Marie
Abrial. the present Governor Gen
eral of Algeria for Vichy. Thirty
five years ago the two who were
to become admirals in the French
Navy, were young officers together
in the China Seas and Muselier was
able to save the life of Abrial's child.
I'VE were young and We talked
politics together" Muselier said. Il
was a Republican, Abrial was not.
We never talked politics together
again, but IS years later, when the
second World War broke out, Abrial
remembered what I had said and
that l was a Republican and he
made 1t count against me-"
When the Second World War be-
gan, Admiral Muselier was in charge
of the naval district at Marseille
and Admiral Abrial was his direct
superior. There, on September S,
1899. two days after France had
entered the war, an extraordinary
thing occurred. Museiers inteli-
gence section reported to him that
Italy, which did not come into the
war until June 10, 1910, had put its
fleet into battle stations. On the eve
ming Of the same day, a long, re-
lentless search by the French fleet
for two enemy submarines which
had stolen into the Gulf of Lions
resulted in the sinking of the SUBJ
marines by air action and the dis
covery that the submarines were
Italian.
Il reported to the Admiralty and
to Abrial my conclusion that Italy
was in the war;" Muselier said.
Not Subs, But Whales.
Your reporter interrupted the con-
versation at this point to remark
that this fitted in with something he
had learned from the American
widow of an italian Foreign once
omcial, who had said that, early in
September. 1889, large sections OF
the Italian army had mutinied
against marching OF to war and
had been confined to barracks.
The admiral held up his hands. Il
have heard this myself" he said.
but I do not know for sure. say
only what know
Abrial told MuSelier he had made
q mistake. that the Italian subma-
rines he had sunk were not subma-
rines at all, but whales. Whereupon
Muselier in typically Gallo passion
dashed off report to the French
Museum of Natural History on new
species of whale discovered in the
Gulf of Lions.
This whale rolls and rocks with
the waves the admiral reported,
has a coming tower, must be up at
night to recharge its batteries and.
when bombed. disgorges fuel oil and
wreckage suitable for lining the
stomach Of a submarine.
Muselier sent copy OF his natural
history report to the French Admir-
atty, where it was received In silence
and. no doubt, filed away.

BY IRA WOLFERT,
Correspondent Of The Star and Nor

Correspondent Of The Star and North
American Newspaper Alliance.
NEW YORK, Jan. $50, by
shanghaiing this thoroughly willing
reporter, the Free French managed
to preserve the gentle fiction that,
when they steamed out of Halifax to
occupy Vichy-held St. Pierre and
MiQuelon, they were only steaming
to maneuvers on the North Atlantic.
Maneuvers actually were held.
They had the value Of making sure
that all guns were ready for busi-
ness. And then, when 1t came time
to change course and cut of the
convoy route and into st. Pierre
even there luck held for the Free
French.
At exactly the right time, fire
broke out in one Of the batteries
of the Surcouf. This frequently
happens in submarines riding a
beam sea. The rolling causes the
acid In the batteries to spill over
and ignite whatever it reaches. Our
sea-a heavy one, with wind at force
8-was squerely on the beam and
Admiral Muselier. having to notify
the Admiralty Of his change OF
course, was able to wireless them
that a beam sea had started a fire
on the Surcouf and he was heading
his fiotilla into the seq.
Luck, luck" the chief Of stan
said one night at dinner. "and the
luckiest thing is that st. Pierre was
delivered from Vichy's Nazis on
Christmas eve. There was only one
chance in 365 that 1t would happen
on Christmas eve-and that is when
it happened
Weighty Reasons.
It Is obvious that the Free French,
angry as they were at their treat
ment from the United States State
Department. would not have risked
tipping the Allied apple cart without
weighty reasons.
In addition to rescuing democratic
Frenchmen from a dictatorship, the
ST. Pierre affair was designed to
demonstrate before the world the
vital bit of military information
that, when Frenchmen become able
to choose, they choose Free France
and war on the Allied side instead
of Vichy France and collaboration
with the Nazis, and make their
choice almost unanimously.
Thus. when the Free French
pointed their warships at st. Pierre,
they were aiming to hang a black
eye on Vichy and almost every man
on board had an urgent reason for
taking personal pleasure in this fact.
One chummy evening a little
while ago. Admiral Muselier, un-
buckling his sword belt in a man.
ner of speaking. told the following
story. between the lines Of which
may be read something Of what he
feels about the men Of Vichy.

Strike Fresh Blow
Al Indies Targets
Bombing Attack Aimed
At Objectives Near
Bose of Amboinu

BATAVIA. Netherlands Indies,
Jan. 15-While Dutch warplanes
roared out from their jungle bases
today in search of new enemy
targets, the japanese struck fresh
blow in bombing attack aimed at
detectives near the important
Netherlands Indies military and
naval base of Amboina.
(Amboina, in the Molucca
Island group between Celebes and
New Guinea, would be long
reach for the japanese from
Davao, IT'S miles north in the
Philippines. or from their foot
holds on Northern Borneo. But
it is only about 400 miles south
west OF the Minahassa Peninsula
of Celebes, where the Japanese
also have made landings.
"a Japanese communique. as
broadcast from Toxic, reported
air attacks on Amboina as we'll as
on New Guinea and New Britain,
in Australia's Bismarck Archi-
pelagoo
A brief communique here merely
reported the japanese attack and
added that further interesting de-
tails were expected.
The strongest Japanese foothold
on Indies territory appeared to be
at Tarakan. of Borneo's northeast
coast, seized by troops landed from
IA transports.
Accounts of the Japanese opera
ton at Tarakan agreed that force
of six large cruisers and six de-
stroyers supported the fleet Of trans
ports and covered the landings
which were made at three separate
points along Tarakan's east coast
Sunday morning.
The outnumbered defenders were
forced back steadily. But while they
continued their stubborn resistance
other units carried out the pre-
arranged plan for destruction OF the
oil wells. .
Ironically. the insufferable heat
of the oil well fires was factor in
the final surrender of the garrison
Monday morning. Only a few de-
tenders were said to have escaped
to the mainland of Borneo.
Imperial headquarters at Toxic
declared that special landing force
operating on Celebes captured all
enemy airdromes in the zone around
MinahaSsa.
A Japanese communique added
that in the course Of the operations
the imperial troops captured con-
siderable number of armored cars,
anti-tank cannon, guns and other
war materials.
