Many Opportunities
ore Available

Unusual opportunities for wo-
men feature list of employ
m m opportunities available
through the United States En-
ployment Service which was re-
leased today by John l.. Craig,
u. S. F. S. State Director
On the list is an order for 60
women, Il TO 40 years of age,
who are college graduates, to
train for accounting positions in
the Detroit ordnance district.
They will attend a six months
course at Wayne University,
starting June 81; their pay
starts at once.
A large Detroit plant wants
25 women with high school or
college background for inspec-
ton work, and will pay them
while attending a 10 weeks
training course in Ann Arbor.
The Mount Clemens office re-
ports a tremendous shortage of
unskilled workers in their own
and the Detroit area. The EN-
ployment Service has orders for
more than 1900 construction
workers alone, and there are
hundreds Of factory openings re-
curing no experience.
Orders for skilled workers in
clude 20 ship filters experienced
in steel ship construction; drop
hammer operators, and an old
time blacksmith to forge parts
by hand.
Information about these open
jngs is available at the local Of

Seek and Destroy Foe,
knox Tells Fleet in
Navy Day Message
BY the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
Secretary of the Navy Knox gave
these orders to the fleet yesterday:
Seek out the enemy-and destroy
him!"
His orders were contained in q
message commemorating Navy Day,
October 27, in which he also pledged
that "the most ruthless and cruel
enemies OF all time shall be driven
from the seas"
The text of the message:
Navy Day of 1943 is q fighting
day for the United States Fleet on
every ocean of the world. In the
Atlantic, the Pacific, the Mediter-
ranean and in other theaters Of ac-
ton, our men in Navy blue are slug
ging 1t out with the enemy. The
hearts of more than 10000 900
Americans are with them in the tre-
mendous task ahead.
During almost two years of war,
a patriotic Nation has dedicated
trained hands and willing effort to
the construction of a mighty fleet
the greatest in our history. Upon
this ability to build, and keep on
building, rests the Nays ability to
carry out future attacks. Our fight
ing men afloat have proved their
battle worth. Given the ships, the
planes and the guns in sufficient
quantity, they will never let us down.
Thousands Of these valiant men
have already given their lives as
their contribution to the ultimate
victory which is now assured. I am
confident that the people of this
country will not forget that sacri-
flee. nor what is being done by our
gallant Allies.
"On this Navy Day, every patriotic
American salutes the men Of our
Navy, Coast Guard and Marine
Corps with a hearty well done.
And those at home proudly join
with those who are far away in a
silent battle pledge that the most
ruthless and cruel enemies of all
time shall be driven from the seas.
ITO the men of the fleet I say
with confidence and with pride: Seek
out the enemy-and destroy him!
Today, tomorrow and tomorrow we
must attack"

gave the orders to fire. Pretty soon
every battery on the ship opened
up. The Japs were dropping 300
pound bombs One fell on the port
side Of the ship and started a small
fire that was soon put out.
All Shot Down.
Seven of the big Jap bombers
were shot down by our fighter planes
and one by our guns. Right after
they first came in our ship made a
sharp turn to port, and I saw sew
eral bombs fall in our wake If we
hadn't sWerved when we did these
bombs would have hit the center of
the fight deck.

till late that afternoon, and the
Japs came over once more before We
went below decks. This time there
were just four of them. Our fight
