in that section of the Solomons.
That was not, however, the
first occasion on which Munda
has been bombarded by surface
guns. 1t was similarly attacked
last January S and at that time
our ships were counterattacked
by enemy planes but not by sur
face units.
The action Friday night, Solo
mons time, was the first Naval
engagement in I he Solomons
area since the night Of February
IL when American motor tor
pedo boats mixed with japanese
destroyers removing troops from
Guadalcanal island. Not since
November 80, however, had
there been a fight involving the
use of large warships on each
side. 1t was in the November 80
action, the battle of Lunga Point,
that the American cruiser North
ampton was lost and several
other ships damaged while the
japanese lost six destroyers, two
troop transports and one cargo
ship.
Munda and Villa are very close
together and function in Japan

same strategic air base section.

Motorists who grow impat-

Rate Increased

Publishers of the Daily

Monday that home delivery
rates for the newspaper have
been raised to "a cents week
ly, effective at once.
In making the announce
ment the publishers pointed
toward enormously increased
production costs and the dras-
tic curtailment of advertising
lineage under the impact of
war. General increased costs
have forced them to reluct-
antly follow the lead of vir-
tually all other daily newspa'
pers in establishing the new
weekly charge, they said.
Better service and a greater
return to carrier boys will re-
suit, the publishers stated.
The move follows by sew
eral weeks similar rate in

and smaller dailies scattered
across the nation. The street.

Convoy Evidence
BY The Associated Pres.

In the Far Paifcic. Gen. Doug
las MacArthur's Headquarters
painted vivid picture of utter
destruction inflicted upon a 81
ship Japanese convoy in which
more than $4,000 enemy troops
lost their lives in the waters of
the Bismarck area.
An official epilogue OF the
great Allied sea-air victory de-
clared that bits of Wreckage and
oil stains on the water were all
that remained today of the jap
anese sea-borne force that at
tempted to reach New Guinea
from New Britain.
Long range Allied fighters
and bombers swept the entire
area yesterday, completing fl
nal mop-up Of barges, lifeboats
and RATS from sunken ships, and
Gen. Macarthur announced:
There was scarcely a surviv-
or so far as was known"
The three-day saga of destruc-
ton ended yesterday when an
Allied flier dropped his bombs
on three boats loaded with 200
Japanese soldiers, and messaged
his base: mo survivors"
Meanwhile, other United Ma
tons warplanes blasted anew at
the Japanese base at Lac, New
Guinea, setting fires visible for
40 miles, and attacked the en-
envy airdrome at Gasmata, New
Britain.
There was no further infor-
nation on the progress of Gen.
MacArthur's ground forces in
their drive toward Salamaua,
New Guinea, but Allied planes
machine-gunned japanese posi-
tons to the south in the Waria
River sector.
On the Burma front, fighter
escorted Raj bombers raided
Japanese-occupied villages in the
vicinity of Akyab Island, key
enemy base on the Bay of Ben
gal, and attacked other targets
inland.
