Primarily air bases, the Gilberts
and Marshalls not only were a thorn
in the U. S. supply lines. but they
also fanked any Allied movement
toward the South Pacific war thea
ter. Their presence posed a double
threat to our forces.
AS U. S. airmen softened up the

part of a S3O8, OO0, 900 deficiency ap-
preparations bill later sent to a joint
senate-house committee for settle
ment of differences between the two
