the Moritz car.
DRIVERS STORY
Moritz said he tried to avoid
collision with the other car,
and at the"same time keep clear
of the Schleicher boy. He said
he thought he had missed the
child until he stopped off the
road proper, rs feet from the
point of impact. ......
The woman witness, ordered
in for questioning today. is
Mrs. Kenneth Hauer, also of the
Glenwood road, whosec car re-
portediy was the one Moritz
passed at the scene of the ac-
cident.
However. the Schleicher' S
claim Mrs. Hauer will state she
passed the Moritz' car some dis
lance east Of that point, and
sufficiently far away to have no
relation TO the accident.
After the accident, Moritz
stopped and saw Mrs. Shleicher
carry her child into the house.
He then informed an adult at
the scene that he was going a
short distance to his home to
CALI police, and he called them
at 4 p. m.
Van Fleteran said that he
could not find any basis for al
legations of leaving the scene
of an accident against the
youth, as made by complain
ants.
Van Fleteren said he could
not find sufficient substance in
a statement made unofficially by
one of the playing children
that Moritz was not wearing
his eye glasses at the time of
the accident.
The" assistant prosecutor said
he was unable to find any show
ing of negligence after studying
statements from Moritz and his
sister, and Henry Schleicher,
eight, brother of the boy, and
Drew Hauer, age five, who were
playing with Robert at the
time.
Henry, Van Fleteren said,
has only a blurred conception
of the fatality. The Hauer boys
testimony is reasonably clear.
the official said. and he states
that Robert advanced into the
road to throw a stone at the
Moritz car, Van Fleteren said.
The official said the boy told
him he had warned the Scleich-
er boy regarding the approach

With no other witnesses avail
able. and Mrs. Hauer Gan aunt
of Drew Hauer) refusing to
make a statement, Van Fleteren
said he could not base any &C
ton against Moritz on such evil
denee. tT'>s assistant prosecutor
said that only when case is in
court can a witness be summon
ed or forced to appear.)
Mrs. Hauer was expected to
appear today for a statement
Van Fleteren said, only because
she had told the Schleicher fam
lily she was willing to aid. She
has been requested" to appear,
not ordered.
In discussing the case. Van
Fleteren pointed out that no in
cidents of past months or years
concerned with Moritz or any
members Of his family, have
any bearing on the present case.
Nor have any charges of pre-
vious or subsequent reckless
ness any legal status or value.

who had previously refused to
appear for a statement.
YOUTHFUL VICTIM
The accident, at 3:45 p. m,
resulted in the instantaneous
death Of Robert r. Schleicher,
young son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Hen
ry Schlelcher, 1892 Glenwood,
one mile south of the city
The boy, playing with two
companions on or near the gra-
vel road outside his parents
home, was struck by the fender
of a car driven by Max Moritz,
II, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Moritz, 1880 Glenwood.
In petition repeatedly sign
ed by "a residents. and request
ing revocation of iMoritz' Ii
cense, the youth is described in
scathing terms as a reckless
driver at all times, and the petit
TONERS express fear for the safe
~ Of their more than "a chill
dren' now living on Glenwood
road.
DEMAND ACTION
Residents, who have beseiged
the Prosecutors and Sheriff S
Offices for a week demanding
action, state they are incensed
by the fact that Moritz has con-
tinued to drive (allegedly in a
reckless manner) since the &C
cident.
The youth has retained his
drivers license, Van Fleteran
says, because jurisdiction over
this matter is exclusively in the
hands of the Traffic Division
Of the State Police. Van Flet-
eran said that shortly after the
fatality, the Schleichers de-
manded that he take the youth
license, but he explained TO them
that they were entitled TO petit
ton the state through Capt.
Caesar j. Scavarda. in charge
oft his department.
When the Schleichers did not
send in such a complaint, and
other residents approached Van
Fleteran with similar plea,
the assistant prosecutor said he
himself wrote letter to ScaV-
arda outlining the citizens COM
plants and naming them.
PROCEDURE
The procedure in such cases
is TO request REORGANIZATION

qualifications, and to date no

The factual story of the ia

made by sheriff's deputies, states
that Moritz said he was driving
west on Glenwood about 25
miles an hour, approaching the
Schlelcher property, when he
observed three boys playing by
tn roadside rs feet away. The
report states he sounded his
horn - and he later told Van

prosecutor, Moritz said that

The 9th Army Division and
Fourth Marine Division are ad-
vancing abreast, northeast Of
Garapan, over rolling plateaus
where American tanks and 9TH
or mechanical weapons knock
ed CIT Japanese tanks in whose
sale numbers.
At least 80 enemy tanks have
been destroyed and the latest
court shows the japanese dead
now more than 5000.
From the mountain top I saw
Army units pushing forward
toward a point where tanks du-
eled~. with Japanese emplace-
ments. After a few minutes of
rapid firing the enemy strong
point was knocked out and the
Infantry line advanced through
groves of breadfruit trees. The
troops are constantly entering
caves and finding Japanese bod
les as we'll as vast stores OF
equipment and supplies. Cap

terial.

enemy is expected to make the
hottest possible fight for cave
and ridge strong points exactly
as he did at Nafutan Point and
on the spined peaks of Mt. Ia
potchau in an effort to turn Sal
pan into a Japanese version OF
Bataan.
ENEMY TRAPPED
In the conquest of the hills
commanding Garapan and Tana-
pag Harbor, many japanese
were cut off from escape. The
fourth marine and 9th Army
Division units are expected TO
close the gaps entirely, crunch
ing the Nips caught between the
second Marine division elements
moving through Garapan and
those battalions occupying the
heights.
The Fall of Garapan will
make available Tanapag Harbor
to Allied shipping,
With the disclosure yesterday
of the units involved, it may
now be revealed that the sec
ord and fourth Marine divisions
landed abreast in the initial at
tack against the island and these
battalions suffered the major
share of casualties.
The second wheeled up the
west coast and through the
highest mountains while the
fourth struck directly across
the island and secured the
heights surrounding Magicienne
Bay after savage fighting.
The 9th Army division land
ed a few days after the initial
assault and circled the southern
tip of the island 1t captured
Aslito airfield without heavy
losses but was involved in a hot,
bloody fight for Nafutan PENN

DELAYING ACTION
1t appears that the Japanese
garrison fought delaying &C
ton from the southern Saipan
plains toward the mountain
strongholds in the hope that the
grand fleet was en-
route to a rescue-as indeed it
set out to attempt.
That strategy was short-cir

June 1919 in which the Japa-

for safety after the greatest air
losses in the history Of naval

The Japanese know now that
the fleet has been turned back
and their fight has become hope
less "a fact evidenced by sur
