JAPANESE SUBS
 AT ALEUTIANS
Attacks By Naval Forces Can Be Expected Any
 Time on Enemy Bases

Washington, Aug. 17.-(UP)-The presence of Japanese submarines in Kiska Ha-bor-- disclosed by the Navy on Saturday may presage new con- centrated attacks by U. s. Naval forces on enemy bases in the Aleu- tians, observers believed today.
 If the Japanese can convert Kiska Harbor into an effective submarine base, 1t will provide base for enemy submersibles 2,00O miles near CT West coast shipping lanes than has been available heretofore, 1t was pointed out.
 Japanese submarines already have appeared off the West coast despite the di5tan; $ involved. On two oc- casions they shelled shore objectives.
 Relatively speaking, wever, enemy submarine activity off the Pacific coast has been insignificant, presumably because of the great distances the submersibles had to travel from their western Pacific bases.
 In addition to the submarines, 10 enemy cargo ships or transports were sighted in Kiska Harbor, the Navy disclosed. Their presence, 1t was believed, might indicate that additional Japanese troops had ar rived to strengthen the enemy's only outposts on American soil.
 Tn that event, 1t was believed, the United States might have to employ troops or marines in any determined attempt to drive the Japanese out. Naval observers pointed out, how ever, that winter starts early in the Aleutians, a fact which might make sustained offensive operations un- feasible for months to come.

DUTCH EXPECT TO
 SEE MORE KILLED
Reprisal Executions Have Already Taken Place
 Under Nazi Orders

London, Aug. 17-(UP) = The dutch government in exile, expect ing to hear further repriszl execu- tions in German-occupied Holland, today promised retribution after the war and warned that terrorism would never halt the resistance of Dutch patriots.
 Since the German-controlled radio in Holland on the fate of the re- maining hostages, understood to number more than 1900.
 Dutch sources predicted that the Germans probably would carry out further executions in the next 10 days if the patriots who wrecked a German troop train near Rotterdam Aug. 2 remained at large.
 Information reaching the Dutch government disclosed that in the past two months patriots destroyed 40 German supply trains, set i've German planes on fire, destroyed a dump of torpedoes and other am munition in Haarlem, burned Ger man supply depot and blew up three ammunition trucks.
 According to reports reaching London, the Germans have executed one of the most famous members or the Dutch underground movement, Marie Dehaas, who led a sabotage ring which caused much of dCstruc- tion.
 Private advices here said the oc- cupation authorities, in an effort

The blimp was engaged in a routine offshore patrol. It carried radio but no messages had been received to indicate that the craft was In diff ticulty. Reports that men were seen parachuting were received from various sources but none was con- firmed.
 Ida Ruby, telephone operator who was riding horseback near the beach, saw the blimp drifting in from the ocean. She said she watched 1t with binoculars and was quite sure" she saw three men in the gondola. The Navy said 1t had confirmed that only two men were aboard, although there were three parachutes in the racks. The blimp slithered across a housetop, tangled electric wires, then collapsed in the street. The gondola came to rest at a steep angle with the engines smashed against the pavement. Gasoline spurted over the sides of the craft but there was no fire.

Daughter Of Lieut.. Col. Is Slayer Of Fiance Captain

Bisbee, Ariz, Aug. 17-Attorneys for Margaret Herlihy, 2l. 8 lieuten- ant colonel's pretty daughter. try to convince a coroner's jury today that she shot and killed her boy friend, Captain David Carr. in self defense. Miss Herlihy was charged with as- sault with a deadly weapon and there was 8 possibility that if the coroner's jury accepts her plea, she may not be charged with anything more serious. Captain Carr was shot in the Herlihy home in Doug las, Saturday. She used her fathers .32 caliber revolver and two bullets hit him. He died Saturday night.
 Army circles were shocked by the shooting. A willowly red-head, Miss Herlihy, who, 1t was said, had been married before, was popular in army society, as was captain Carr, 35. Friday the betrothed couple went to Agua Prieta, Mexican resort town just across the border. and returned Friday night. In the automobile they started a quarrel, it was said, which only ended in Captain Carr

Mystery Still Unsolved Of Blimp That
 Fell In City Street With Two Missing

Immediately before the crash, the wheels of the gondola rolled across the roof of Horace c. Appleton's home. Mrs. Appleton said she was terrified. T was outside and saw 1t falling" she said. T rushed in- side and yelled to my husband, Look, 8 balloon is falling on our house. I could hear the wheels roll across the roof. Then 1t struck the electric wires and there was 8 big flash. It settled down in the street covering up an automobile parked there"
 One depth charge, still in Its rack, was removed and placed under guard to prevent an accidental dis charge. The second depth charge was found on Olympic golf course. Naval authorities said they were ad- justed to explode only if dropped in water. Tke blimp took off at 6 q. m Sunday morning with a two-man crew for its ocean patrol. It crashed five hours later.

United Press Stair COrreSpOnOemL)
 Moscow, Aug. 17-UP)-The Rus sians announced today that they were firmly holding against supreme German offensive south west of Stalingrad and that the Nazis were hastily bringing up re- serves, because of their heavy losses
 The Soviet high command, which last night announced the abandon rnent of Maikop and its demolished oil wells, spoke more hopefully of tie situation around Kotelnikovskl 90 miles southwest of Stalingrad and tho Volga river line, than 1t had in days.
 The Germans previously had re- grouped their forces, brought up reserves and started an all-out drive 10 take Stalingrad, important be- cause of ts heavy industries, and cut the Volga river line. The So- viet noon communique did not say whether this effort had failed but 1t asserted:
 Northeast of Kotelnikovski, So- V1et troops repelleu several eilelIly attacks and are firmly holding their positions. The enemy having suf- fered heavy losses in recent fighting, is hastily bringing up reserves"
 Last midnight's Soviet com munique said the Germans had penetrated Russian outer defenses On the Kletskaya front, 75 miles northwest of Stalingrad. The noon communique said only that Soviet troops "waged defensive battles" southeast of Kletskaya during the night.
