Common Writing Paper

It was born In the research
laboratories of the Eucsta Paper

pulp, waste papers and other raw
materials used in manufacturing
common writing paper.
Ecusta's' output furnishes a
large percentage of cigarette

The addition Of writing paper to
the output was announced by
President Harry H. Straus.
Prior to the process perfected
recently by Ecusta, Americas
fine quality writing papers were
generally made in heavy and

Straus says beautiful lightweight

Sept. IL R Roaming uncnal-
lenged in a 1000 mile bombing
arc from the Banda sea to the
Philippines, Allied aircraft sank
10,OOO-ton tanker and smashed

Four successive sweeps over

A Navy Catalina flying boat on

FIGHT For Islands
Sets Fiery Theme

Guam, which is more than 1900
miles from Mindanao.
Then let's have a look at Hal
mahera and Palau.
Halmahera is a forbidding spot.
It. is shaped like an Octopus. Its
600 square miles encompass I'M
explored areas Of mountain and
jungle.
Its unfavorable terrain recalls
Bougainville in the Solomons-and
perhaps that is happy recollec-
ton. The Japanese counted On
fighting the Yanks all over tortuous
Bougainville. But the Yanks land
ed in one dense jungle spot, hacked
out an airfield, ringed it with good
defenses and settled for that.
An airfield or two is all MacAr-
thur needs on Halmahera. Japan
ese.built fields are there for the
taking.
What of Palau? Japan has been
fo-tifying it's 100 islands for nearly
a quarter of a century; has cut a
canal leading into a big harbor;
has enormous phosphate deposits.
needed for making explosives, at
stake on Angaur at Palau's south
ern tip. The Japanese leveled en-
tire islands there for airdromes.
An enemy which will work that
hard on a place can be expected to
defend it with the ferocity display
ed at Saipan.
