Cada uno de los tripulantes del

 The battalion fought for five days without rest and then was given 24 hours for it's members to rest and get ready for one of the toughest assignments of the campaign - wrestling the high peaks of Fish Hook Ridge from the Japanese.
 The battalion provided its own barrage of concentrated machine gun and mortar fire, while it's soldiers scaled the CO., degree cliffs in the face of en- emy fire from prepared positions high above them. This was part of the movement that drove the Japanese into Chichagof Valley, from where they made their

The Fourth Infantry had added another battle streamer to It's colors no other unit of the Army boasts as many - but it had paid a high price. Approximately five officers and 60 enlisted men of the battalion were dead.
 Their experience in Alaska proved invaluable to soldiers of the Fourth during the Battle of Attu, as evidenced by the fact that casualties from exposure in this battalion were few. The much-dIscussed immersion feet" which took such a terrific toll among other troops was virtually non-existent in the ranks of the Fourth.

battle-weary troops had accomp- lisned their mission. They had seized the high pesk and wiped out all enemy resistance on the slopes.
 The next day, after the final big counter-attack by more than 1000 Japanese, two companies of the Fourth were sent to help clear the enemy out of Sarana Valley and the high ground sur rounding the area. Most of the Japanese had been exterminat- ed, or had committed suicide, by that evening and the sit uation was well under control.
 Later the battalion was as- signed the task of combing the area east of Chichagof Valley Patrol action, hunting out and destroying the scattered and doomed Japanese stIagglers.

 Observers watching the acton from a distance were fascinated by the spectacle, with small groups of troops clearly visible as they clambered up the steep slopes. Other troops were evacu ating the wounded, crawling painfully down the almost lm- possible mountain sides with their human burdens.
 After suffering many casual ties, the battalion on May P finally took a portion of a high peak on the northeast end of the ridge, giving the Tanks a commanding position overlook ing the main ridge running east toward the Chichagof Valley. The fighting continued through that night. and by 5:30 pm, the next day, the Fourth Infantry's

4th Infantry Sees Attu

(Editor's Note: This is the second of 2 series of articles on the Fourth !" antry, which has just returned to the United States after three years in Alas ka, and { Ils the story of the regiments first battalion in the Battle of Attn.
 By Cpl Allen Merritt
 (Army Correspondent
 Headquarters, Alaskan De- partment Soldiers of the Fourth Infantry regiments first battalion acquitted themselves well at Attu, where they saw action in one of the strangest and bIoodiest battles of the war.
 They were called in exactly a week after the first American troops had landed on that fog shrouded island. They d q not even know what part they were scheduled to play in the battle when they climbed over the sides of their transport ship last May IS to land at Massacre Bay, for they had not originally been slated for acton at Attu.
 Maj, John D. O'Reilly of Seattle, Wash, commander of the battalion reported to Mai. Gen Eugene Landrum. Carry ing extra rations and ammuni- tion, the troops were marched directly to battle sector, and they had engaged the enemy less than 24 hours after they landed.
 They fought the Jap at alti- tudes of 2,O0O feet or more, in snowblanketed mountain areas high above the clouds,
 Moving north along the high ridge west of Chichagof Valley on May 2l, the battalions came up against strong enemy op- position from machine gun and sniper positions. Many of the Japanese were killed, the re- mainder driven of, and the Fourth moved along the ridge to a point late that day where wis., ual contact was established with

Doran's contention that there are
not sufficient men in the depart
ment stated that when ffTemen
were called to the Haig Insurance
Offices there were two big pieces
OF equipment and only three men
to man them. He asserted that IN
the business district there are 'ap-
palling fire hazards" and cited Inst
ances OF amateur wiring, electrical
overloads and combustible refuse.
The fire commission on the other
hand, has been making every effort
TO obtain men who can meet the
civil service requirements and who
will accept the remuneration OFFER
ed hy the city but find Industrial
competition too great. Two were
approved by the council. James c.
Pittman. who will replace James
Fitzgerald and Frank ]. Yonkers.
The commission pointed out need
for two additional fremen.
Mayor Ross X. Bower suggested
as solution that auxiliary fire.
men be called in case OF a big fire
and that they be paid for the timo
spent in hghting the fire and be
required to report for training In
handling equipment.
Protection for Dormitories
At the same meeting city coun-
ell agreed to furnish fire protection
for the federal dormitories east
OF Ypsllanti on condition that pay
ment at the rate OF $50 an hour for
all the time the equipment Is out
OF the station is made, that the city
be protected from liability and dam
age an dthat help in fighting fire
be furnishe adj the scene. The dor
mItories will be equipped with con
siderable means OF fighting fires
and will have fire chief OF its
1 own.
II is not anticipated that the city
equipment would be called except
/ in case of emergency.
There is also probability that
state equipment will be provided
for the area.
