NAZIS LOOK FOR DEMANDS

The Germans, anticipating a
possible tri-power demand for their
surrender, already were warning
that they never would give in to
the allies.
Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph
Goebbels set the pace by asserting
in his publication, Das Reich, that,
One may have to suffer blows, but
one must never give in"
That nation will be victorious
which does not carry the white flag
of surrender in its baggage" he
said.
The newspaper Zwoelfuhrblatt.
in a similar vein, declared:
One hundred million Germans
are welded through life and death
in unit and would rather be torn
to pieces for the fuehrer than to
make the :iniest concessions to
the enemy"
Radio Vichy said Stain again
was demanding a second front.
though Allied sources were agreed
that the Soviet premier apparently
was satisfied with the Anglo-Amer-
lean plans for an invasion of
western Europe.

Jap Airmen Fight
In Vain 10
Regain Supremacy

PEARL HARBOR, Dec. 3. (UP)-
Official reports, showing the Japan
ese lost l8 planes destroyed or DAM
aged this week in action around
the Gilbert and Marshall islands,
indicated today the enemy was try
ing to recover from the shock of
the powerful A meric an attack
through the central Pacific.
All except five of the enemy air.
craft were credited to Liberator
bombers carrying out continuous at
tacks on the japanese strongholds
in the Marshalls, north of the cap
tured GilbertS.
SHIP DOWNS THREE
Three were shot down and two
more probably destroyed by two
U. S. destroyers, which beat off
a half hour attack by japanese
torpedo planes in the Gilberts
Monday evening.
Unprotected by planes, the ships
guns won the conflict. and neither
vessel was damaged. The presence
of the Warships near the con-
Quered islands showed Adm. Ches-
ter w. NimitZ, Pacific fleet COM
mander, was guarding carefully
against any possible enemy attempt
to retake the Gilberts.
Opposition to seventh u. S. air
force Lberators and a navy Liberia
tor operating over the Marshalls
Tuesday and Wednesday, showed
the Japanese had rushed in fighter
planes to protect the islands.
Tuesday a Liberator force raided
the Taroa airStrip, on Maloelap
atoll 500 miles north of Tarawa in
the Gilberts, putting at least 90
per cent of their bombs squarely on
the target.
Thirty five Japanese Zeros fought
them. Seven or more" were shot
down, Nimitz announced, and at
least four others were damaged.
All the U. s. planes returned, but
several were damaged and two
fliers were injured.
The same Gay, the navy Liberator
searching through Mill atoll shot
down one Zero and probably de-
stroyed a second, returning un-
damaged.
On Wednesday a Liberator for
nation attacked Mill, setting large
fires. Five Zeroes came up but
the fight resulted in no damage to
either side.
Going back to base, the Liberators
bombed and strafed large cargo
vessel and four accompanying pa
troll ships, but results were doubt
full, a navy spokesman said.

Inadequate water facilities and

be the increasing ty two million
gallons per day of the capacity of
the city's water system, and a new
and less dangerous sewage disposal
system as well as storm drainage
construction" Heinecke told the

MAYOR MAKES STATEMENT

construction" Heinecke told the
Post-Press Friday.
MAYOR MAKES STATEMENT
Mayor r. w. Hatton said Friday
morning that Heinecke has present.
ed the problem before the people
but that the background has not
been covered sufficiently. The city
has had extensive plans for TAX
ing care of these problems for some
time but has been unable to get
government priorities or approval.
Heinecke, who resigned his posi-
ton with the city November l, to
be effective January 3, 1914, has
been with the city since May, 1910.
He was granted a months vacation
starting December 4 and will re-
main here until he has located a
new position.
His condemnation of the water
system was based on the fact that
the water filtering capacity is not
large enough to take care of peak
loads. In this regard he pointed
out that the storage is not suffi-
cient, and the capacity for five
million gallons per day should be
increased to seven million gallons.
FOR SMALLER PLACE
The water system was built. he
said, to accommodate much
smaller population and the i'm
provements are sorely needed to
meet current and future conditions.
For example he pointed out that
the present city water facilities
would take care of only three and
one-half days supply or six to
seven days if water were rationed
in event of an emergency. This he
termed as dangerous condition"
The sewer system is unSatisfac-
tory, he asserted, due to three fac
tors. Cd The outfall sewer system,
which was laid in 1886 through
three quicksand areas, may break
at any time. A bypass has been
constructed in each case to provide
for an emergency with more than
1900 feet of pipe laid and pumps
installed to give temporary relief.
CD Pumps are of old design and are
not only. expensive to maintain,
but of questionable operational
life. An uxiliary gas engine is held
as an emergency in case the cleo
trio power should fail. 90 The
pumping system should not have
been installed. A natural outfall
system would have been more sat-
is factory using gravity systems.
STORM DRAINAGE
He declared storm drainage
system is sorely needed.
Heinecke went on to point out
that an effective city program of
maintenance has been in effect for
some time due to the fact that the
government failed to recognize any
overall improvement program at
this time. The street surfacing
program has been carried on and
some ten miles of streets have been
improved.
This entire matter of providing
a proper and safe water supply, or
improving your water distribution
system, of giving the city good
streets and reliable economic
sewer system, and of providing
storm drainage to avoid constant
damage from rainy seasons, is
city problem which the people of
El Centre must face" Heinecke de-
clared.
Nothing can be done about the
sewer system as it concerns the
suicksand area until it breaks,
Mayor Hatton said. When the en-
gineers for the government project,
under which the system was in
stalled, were cautioned about the
quicksand area until it breaks,
able discussion, as he recalled, but
nothing could be done to change
the engineering plans.
The present storm drainage sys-
tenn was laid out by Heinicke, Hat
ton said
