Am. Legion
Hits Fish

Omaha, Neb., Sept. 23-(UP)-
Admiral Ernest ]. King, command
erin chief Of the u. s. Fleet, warn
ed Japan today to expect new naval
air attacks, asserting that the re-
cent task force blows on Marcus
Island and the Gilberts should be
viewed as "the shape Of things to
come"
Addressing the annual American
Legion convention, King discussed
the coordination Of various naval
fighting arms, emphasizing the in
tegration Of the youngest Of these.
naval aviation, into the combat
team.
'The ultimate test Of military
organization is its performance in
combat, Its discharge Of the vital
anG sacred duty to defend its coun-
try against the enemy" he said.
NAVAL aviation has met and is
meeting this test. The record Of
Midway, the Solomons, the U-boat
wal in the Atlantic, bear witness.
The recent attacks on Marcus and
the Gilberts are to be seen as the
shape of things to come
"All naval operations are joint
operations. That is, all arms and all
branches are employed as Necessary
and together. Unity and teamwork is
the basis Of the Nays fighting
doctrine. It Is the Nays aim to
strike the enemy at any given point
with all weapons that can be
brought to bear, synchronized and
coordinated in overwhelming as
sauit."
Kind, apparently answering criti-
cism that the naval high command
has failed to give aviation its due,
said that mindedness In the
Navy is by no means the exclusive
property of the naval aviator"
He said that American naval avi-
alton Is the most efficient In exist
ence and has earned the praise and
envy Of foreign powers.

ceilings by two cents quart to
producers, not only to cover in

II told Mr.. Vinson," SAID the gov
ernor, "the people In Washington
seemed to be more concerned with

with the food supply problem. While
we realize we have got to keep down

age retail price for milk throughout
