Adopt COP Plan.
Congress Urged

and chairman Sol Bloom, D., N. Y,
of the house foreign affairs COM
mittee said final vote would be
delayed until tomorrow.
Hoffman spoke in the house dur
ing debate on the Fulbright resolu-
ton which would put congress on
record as favoring United States
participation in postwar interna-
tional peace machinery.
'REPUDIATES POLICY
Hoffman charged that it "rephd-
iates our national policy" and
means nothing less than mill
tary alliance between the United
States of America, Great Britain
and such other countries as may
choose to join.
Majority leader John Mccormack,
D., Mass, opening the debate, told
the house the brief resolution SIM
ply signifies our determination to

world in outlawing any nation

gression or conquest.
Hoffman recalled that Democratic
members said the Republican advis-
ory councils Mackinac island de
claration was an endorsement of
President Roosevelt's foreign policy,
and added "if that be true let
the congress here and now adopt
the declaration"
The resolution carried an amend
ment, approved unanimously by the
house foreign affairs committee
shortly before the house convened,
which was believed TO assure pas
sage of the resolution by the re-
quired two thirds majority. The
amendment, sponsored by Republi-
cans, tagged onto the resolution the
qualification that United States
participation in any international
machinery would be only through
constitutional progresses

% of the attacking planes were
shot down.
The raids occurred Saturday night
and Sunday, Admiral Chester w.
Nimitz, fleet commander, revealed
in communique, and presumably
were delivered by a carrier task
force daring the Japanese again to
fight in defense of it's outposts.
The type of the attack was not
described in the first report. Earl
ier this month a carrier task force
sent planes over Marcus island, l.
100 from Tokyo, and they destroy
ed 80 per cent of the enemy install
!ations on that defense point.
Tarawa lies in the norUnern Gill
berts approximately 2,Go0 miles
southwest of Honolulu. and Nauru is
more than 1000 miles west of the
Gilberts. TaraWa is 1850 miles east
of Truk, the enemy naval hub for
the southern Pacific area.
Although the communique did
not detail the operations presum-
ably the islands were subjected to
intensive day-long bombing after a
surprise assault in night hours Sim
liar to the Marcus raid
LONG RANGE PLAN
Coming simultaneously with blows
in the Solomons, the attacks ap-
parently were part of a long range
plan to clip off the long-eXtended
enemy bases.
Both Tarawa and NauTu-the lat
ter an important source of phos-
phate-have been attacked prev
iously by army liberators.

Goal Is Reached

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-(UP)
The American people have sub
scribed more than twO-thirds of
the $4,000, 100000 third war
loan, or S1O,239 ,OO0, 600, the treas
ury announced today as the ma
tionwide sales campaign reached
its halfway period.
Officially launched on Thurs
day, Sept. 6, the drive is sched-
uled to end Sept. 30. The treas
ury explained that the seemingly
great speed with which the money
is rolling in is due to the fact that
the big buyers--cOrpOratiOns and
the Iike-have made most of their
purchases and that small in
vestOrs must subscribe to the re-
mainder.
Secretary Henry MOrgenthau,
jr., warned not to throw our
hats in the air simply be-
cause we are on the home stretch
in so short a time" He said the
