Our planes are working in the
closest coordination with landing
forces. From ships and landing
boats the marine commander gives
|his orders to our group commander
and directs fighters or bombers to
attack designated targets.
Low-lying Clouds.
Through the radio we can follow
everything.
We circle down through the over
cast and come into the clear on the
north shore of Guadalcanal. Over a
village perched against the hillside
there is large white church, a few
neat homes and a few tents-the
latter, probably, signs of the Japa-
nese occupation.
Off in the channel between Qua
dalcanal and distant, dimly dis
tinguishable Tulagi Island, is a
force of our ships-transports and
their escorting war vessels.
There, lowlying clouds near Tul-
agi are ideal for hiding our. oper-
ations from enemy bombers.
We have studied this area in re-
cent days and we feel perfectly at
home here and quickly recognize
places. These are at Tulagi and
along the 20-mile stretch of the
| northern coast of Guadalcanal
There are 20 miles of sheltered water
between Guadalcanal and Tulagi
which nestles off the southern coast
of Florida Island
There are two big fires at Kukong
and as we fly over it we see an oil
dump and a collection of stores
burning. They were just where we
expected to find them. Kukong is a
collection of wooden buildings amid
coconut groves, with dirt road
leading to the Lunga airfield which
the japanese had been working
fiercely to construct.
We see Lunga airield, brown
landing strip 5000 feet long with
an additional 1000 feet not yet sur.
faced. 1t was nice of the Japs te
fix it for us.

H. B. Horton Named
Employer Member
OF War Labor Board
Chicago Man Replaces
Walter c. Teoele;;
Served as Alternate
Ey the Associated Press.

Fy the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt yesterday ap-
pointed H. B. Horton, treasurer of
the Chicago Bridge & Iron Corp,
to the War Labor Board as an en-
ployer member.
Mr.. Horton replaces Walter C.
Teagle, chairman of the board of
the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey,
who resigned after serving year
and a half as an employer member
of the National Defense Mediation
Board and the WLB.
The President also appointed Rob-
ert F. Black, president of the White
Motor Co., Cleveland, as an alter
nate employer member of the WLB
to replace Mr.. Horton, who had
served in that capacity since the
boards creation on January IL.
In announcing Mr.. Teagle's resig-
nation from the board, Chairman
William H. Davis said: Having
served for year and half, Mr..
Teagle feels that he has done his
turn and that there is a real ad-
vantage in having some other rep
resentative of industry become
familiar with and participate in the
work of the board. The board has
accepted his resignation with deep
regret"
The employer members of the
board now are: Roger D. Lapham,
chairman of the board of the
American-Hawaiian Steamship Co.;
George H. Mead, president of the
Mead Corp; E. j. Mcmillan, presi-
dent of Standard Knitting Mills
and Mr.. Horton, regular members
with r.. r. Deupree, president OF
Proctor & Gamble; Cyrus Ching
vice president of the United States
Rubber Co.; H. L. Derby, president
Of American Cyanamid and Chemi-
ical Co. and Mr.. Black, as alter
nate members.
Mr.. Mead, who had been an alter
nate member of the boardesince its
formation, was appointed a regular
member last June when Albert w
Hawkes., former president of the
United States Chamber of Com.
merce, resigned At the same timt
Mr.. Derby was appointed to replace
Mr.. Mead as an alternate employer
member. Mr. Ching was appointed
alternate member in April when L
N. Bent, vice president of Hercule,
Powder Co. resigned.

concerned-return to the carrier.
Over the radio we hear the group
commander relieving the officer who
has been on duty since early in the
attacks. The latter describes the
set-up, reporting little opposition
at Tulagi. No aerial opposition and
no anti-aircraft fire at Guadalca-
nal"
We fly back over the mountains
from which the clouds now are
gone. They appear even more
rugged than they did this morning.
The Japs will have tough time
getting a living in these hills. Even
if they regain their courage and try
an attack or sniper tactics, their
ammunition and supplies are lim-
tied and they can't be much of a
menace to the Marines.
From over the sea we quickly spot
our carriers and land aboard.

We. 60 back and fly parallel with
the beach and see the first marine
tanks already ashore and moving
inland over the grassy clearing
Heads of two men are visible in
each of the tanks. All along the
beach marines still are landing
and unloading boats.
The scene suddenly looks familiar.
1t is traditional Marine recruiting

palms and green hills. Everything
fits in.
There are even more "waterbug"
