- Ever since Pearl Harbor the
East and the intermountain area
have been hearing that the peo-
pie of the Pacific Coast feel that
they are more seriously. more
intimately at war than their
fellow countrymen beyond the
Rockies.
In San Diego one sees the
reason why.
San Diego is a city Of the war
and for the war swollen by the
war TO enormous size and ex-
panSc, concerned with nothing
else but war with the hated and
unforglvable Japanese TO the
almost total disregard of the
Germans
They had their JapS here in
the days of peace and always
suspected that the japanese
fishermen were interested pri-
marily IN spying on our navy
and our vital works and places
and only incidentally. and as a
blind, IN the business Of catch
ing fish.

Il can soldiers and sailors dis

them come back on Stretchers
or feebly walking.
Guns are visible on some Of
the public roads. and mysterious

by SentrlcS.
The planes which growl up
and down the coast and stand
boldly out to sea arc up there
not only 10 give their crews ex-
pcrienCe but also 20 protect ships

Some Of the wrecked equip
