Australian Observers Think Forces Sill We'll h.
 td(t But Scattered

MELBOURNE, Australia, May 12 Observers here express the belief that the Japanese invasion forces are still fairly well intact despite the battering they have taken in the Battle of Coral Sea.
 The fleet is thought to be hid- ing in Islands directly north of Australia and the bulk of the Jap anese Grand Fleet in Japanese mandated Islands a little farther north.
 The observers express the belief that the Japs have been forced to postpone their intended invasion and return to their Island hideouts, such as the Bismarck and Solomon Islands pending endorsements and aid from seaborne planes.
 The invasion fleet, though well dispersed. probably can reassemble quickly, the observers say.

FRANCE MUST MAKE THREE
 DECISION S
Break with Unified States Leads 10 Important
 Questions for Viehy

BERN. Switzerland, May l2 = With French and German negoti- ations reaching a state of urgency, Field Marshal Herman Goering may meet tomorrow with French Mar shal Henri Petain and Chief of State Pierre Laval to reach final decisions, it has been reported by foreign diplomatic quarters.
 These quarters predicted that the French will refuse to accept the Martinique negotiations as one of the great decisions resulting from the break in relations with the United States.
 Martinique Questions
 French Ambassador Henry Haye is said to be conferring now with Secretary of State Cordell Hull on the Martinique and other French Caribbean possessions. Vichy quar- ters say that the United States has demanded the demobilization of the French fleet at Martinique, American earrisoning of the Island and turning over of tankers to this el untly.
 Tcday's report from the diplo- matic quarters in Switzerland said that Otto Abetz, Hitler's represen- tative to Paris and Laval had met yesterday at Moulins, French de- markation line, to lay the ground work for the expected meeting with Goering.
 Laval is said to have brought France to the brink of three great decisions rejection of the Ameri- can proposal to clarify the status of Martinique; the degree of mili- tary collaboration which will be given to the Axis; and at least a preliminary settlement over disput- ed points with Italy.
 These matters are of such i'm perious concern" Vichy announced { today, that Petain has cut short his rest at the Riviera to rush back by special train sent by the Gov ernment.

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN AUSTRALIA, May 12 Japan is apparently still paying the disas- trous price of defeat in the Coral Sea, as Gen Douglas MacArthur's headquarters today announce that Allied fliers are tracking down the scattered, hiding remnants of the great enemy invasion armada.
 Other units have damaged two or possibly three more ships, rais- ing the count of Jap losses in the six day battle in the sea gateway to northeast Australia and its se- quel of ceaseless aerial search of the Island hideaways, to B or "A ships.
 In the eight days since the start of the Coral Sea battle through yesterday, nevertheless, Japan's plans have only been delayed and the threat still hangs over Aus tralia that she may try again to smash southward.
 Air Minister Drakeford warned that two or more enemy transports had been hit yesterday near the Solomon Islands. The communique said that the possible tweny fourth Jap casualty is large tanker an which air raiders have registered two hits or near misses.

Juneau Residents To Gel Tuberlulin Tests Tomorrow

An open clinic TOT all Juneau residents who wish to take tuber- culln tests will be held from t6 A D. m. tomorrow in the Juneau Public Health Center.
 The tests will be given free te any person who wants them, also 70 Juneau Public School students who missed the Monday clinic at the school, and to Parochial school children.
 All children wishing to take the tests must have permission slips from their parents.
 Any person who previously has shown positive to such a test should not repeat it.
 This is the only free clinic of its kind which will be given to Jun residents. Any person who may have been in contact with active tuberculosis cases should take this opportunity to be tested.
 The tuberculin test is rot an in- jection The tuberculin liquid is merely placed under the upper layer of skin and if the germs are present in the body in sufficient number the spot will show red and swoller within few days.
 This positive reaction, however does not mean that an active case of tuberculosis is present. It merely means that the germs are present in greater numbers than the body can fight off. Persons showing positive reactions should have K rays to determine whether or not shey have an active case of the lisease.
 Most persons have the germs ir heir system, but the body is cap able of fighting them off unless they are present in unusually large numbers.

 The German offensive against ths Soviet positions blocking invasion to the Caucasus, died down over night, then quickly flared up again on the Kerch peninsula in the Crimea, the Russians disclosed in their midday communique.
 The dispatch said that nothing important occurred during the night, indicating that the Nazi i push had ceased at least temper arily.
 Whether the resistance of the Red Army had halted the attacks or the Germans had reverted to theiI old tactics of fighting by day and resting at night, could not be de- termined.
