 Midway the first choice, failed and there now, despite repittous punishment by American bombers, they doggedy assembling at Kiska If they fail there they may not have the strength to try again.
 Already the Emperors hgh-proWed ships are going down at their moOrings victims of bombs falling day and night from big brown and gray planes running shuttle service of destruction along the Aeutian chain.

 degree to admit that the strategic waterline preached and Rostov half surrounded
 The Army newspaper Red Star gravely announced that the Germans, pressing closer Salingrad, now approaching the border of Stangrad province, about 80 miles from the city itself "Terrible days face the country" the Red Star said, and called upon Russian soldiers to emulate the heroic band Of 28 who died fighting German tanks barehanded in the snow before Moscow last winter
 In offensive action, the Russian air force bombed kongsberg East PrusSan port, again at night. Six large fires were seen through heavy overcast The Mos radio said large explosions touched off by bombing and 38 fires were reported set The city was attacked late last Saturday night.
 British military sources conceded that small Ger man armored force may reached the lower Don and said there is mo denying the danger to Rostov. The Germans seemed converging ROStov from three di- rections from Taganrog, 40 miles west: from Voro- shiloVgrad, 100 miles north and from Milleroyo, 130 miles north and northeast.
 The Russians officially acknowledged continuing retreat scorched earth and dynamited coal fields in the Don basin from Voroshilovgrad southeastward British feared that large Russian forces in the salient above Taganrog were threatened.
 The British said in the battle of Voronezh 300 miles north of Rosov the Russians wiped out all but one German bridgehead the upepr Don for their siege of Voronezh 10 miles east of the river The Rus sianS reported that forces Voronezh wrested trol of Don crossings & than 1000O of the foe were killed in one weeb of fighting. The qualified sue cesses of the Russian counter attacks at VoroneZh however, seemed to have little effect the German drive across the Don steppes.

Us Air Force Challenges Jap Control Yangtze

Chungkjng, July 21 (4)- Fighter escorted U. s. bombers sank ? Jap ships yesterday in the Yangtze river port of Kiukjang, southeast of Hangkow. The raid challenged Japan's long-held control of the air over her waterway supply route to China. Not one of the U. 5. planes was dam aged, said the communique which said the ships were from 1000 to 2,000 tonners each.
 Presaging an ever-in- creasing aerial challenge to the invaders, a Chinese govt. spokesman said that the US. will be asked thru Laughing Currie, special adviser to President Roose velt, for more planes along with a rather long list" of other military supplies.
 Currie returned from China on July 16 with a message of undisclosed contents for the President from Chiang Kai-Shek.
 In land fighting, a Chin csc army spokesman re- ported, the Japs fought their way back into the Chekiang provincial sea- port of WenchoW Friday, after being disclodged by the Chinese the day before.

 Referring to the Navy communique on Friday giving account of operations in the northern Pacific Di- mond said The Japs sent altogether too much power to the Aleutians for that move to be a mere side-shoW operation wonder why we had to wait this long to find out the facts It all could have been made public with out giving any information to the enemy As far as the enemys power is concerned it doesn't help them if we told what they have"
 Dimond said it reported to him that the Japs have 25000 troops in the captured islands but he has been unable to confirm the report.

Says Govt Official

WASHINGTON, Sept. l.
(UP) = The treasury, reaf-
firming it's belief that the
people want a courageous"
tax bill, today presents to the
senate finance committee a plan
for increasing the war tax burden
on individual incomes without dis
rupting the efforts of Americans to
save for the future or pay off debts.
The treasury's proposal to include
in the new tax bill "spendings''
tax comes at time when the SEN
ate bill is $l,100,000,OO0 short of the
conservative" house revenue figure,
$6,270, 100000. The senate finance
committee has indicated determina-
ton to make up the deficit and per-
haps 60 beyond the house figure
closer to the treasury's original goal
of s8,700, 100000.

Chairman Walter F.. George D..
Ga, announced that Treasury Gen.
eral Counsel Randolph Paul would
present the proposed "spendings"

JAP WAR LORD RESIGNS
GOVT BARES IRA PLOT

BELFAST, Sept. l. CUP)-The
Northern Ireland government an
nounced today that a plot by the
outlawed Irish Republican army to
open armed conflict in Ulster has
been revealed.
The outbreak, the announcement
said, was planned to begin with the
execution of Thomas Williams, 49,
IRA member convicted of killing
policeman. The execution is sched-
uled for tomorrow.
The government announcement
served to confirm rumors that such
an uprising was pending, and COIN
cided with continued police raids in
which large caches of arms, ammu-
milton dump was found last night
Some, 1t was believed, may have
provided information which led to
seizure today of an even larger IRA
arms supply.
The early morning raid bagged
guns, bombs, and thousands of
rounds of ammunition in even great
er quantity than were discovered in
similar raid last night. Searches
throughout the night resulted in
confiscation of additional quantities
of arms, ammunition and explosives
packed in barrels.
