Wake Island Bombed Again;
Subs Sink II Jop Ships

Wake Island was bombed for the
second time in two days, the Navy
announced yesterday, shortly after
a report that American submarines
had sunk IL more Japanese ships
to maintain their recent average of
more than one a day.
Coronado bombers hit Wake
Thursday, stepping up attacks on
the tiny island the japanese seized
from American marines two years
ago. All Coronados returned. Dam
age to enemy installations was not
reported.
The latest submarine toll, de-
scribed by Secretary of Navy Knox
as "a pretty good bag" included
three transports. two large tankers,
a large auxiliary and six freighters.
Since the war started American
torpedoes have hit 584 Japanese
ships, sinking at least 434. OF these
SO were destroyed since last Thanks
giving Day when the undersea fleet
increased its toll to one day or
better.
The enemy's ship shortage, COM
bined with Allied blockades, is re-
sulting in thousands of japanese
on scattered islands dying of star
vation." Mr.. Knox said. This is true
Of Bougainville in the Solomon
Islands, he said. Japanese on by
passed Marshall atolls face the same
fate.
Still greater emphasis on air war
in the Pacific was seen in appoint
ment of Vice Admiral John H.
Towers, commander of air forces of
the Pacific Fleet, to fill the new
post of deputy commander of the
Pacific Fleet. s..-.. .,.
In his new post he succeeds Vice
Admiral John H. Newton, while in
turn ne is expected to be succeeded
by Rear Admiral Charles Pownall
as commander of Pacific Fleet air
forces.

No Ordered Effort

ancestors were tough enough to

they get other ideas.
Up until now, there seems to have
been no ordered effort by the repre-
sentatives of any other foreign coun-
try to assist In the improvement Of
Chinese livestock. Missionaries here
and there have introduced better
grades which have had an influence
in the immediate vicinity, German
missionaries brought In some nice
fat pigs. Others introduced good
chickens and cows, But these were
only a drop in the bucket.
The Chinese Department of Agri.
culture itself is a new thing and has
very little background Of training or
experience. Perhaps the one most
important influence has been the ex.
change established between Cornell
university ard the University In
Marking. A number Of experts in
agriculture have been trained at
Cornell and have gone back to
China.
Naturally with such a large pro-
portion Of the population ~illiterate,
it will be exceedingly difficult TO
spread the Information even when
the Chinese leaders themselves are
trained.
The present Chinese government,
despite the fact that almost every
ounce Of energy has to be turned
toward fighting the war, has shown
an interest evidenced by the wei.
come reception given the various
American representatives, and the
United States on its side has sought
TO improve its relations between
people and extend its influence by
this activity which is a part Of the

u. 5. Farm Expert Gives
Friendly Advice TO China
Department Of Agriculture Officials Visit
Chinese, Suggest Practical Methods
OF Increasing Food Production.
BY BAUKHAGE
Netps analyst and Commentator,

small farming and very small farm
ing, indeed, is the chief activity. In
the west, there are great grass
lands better adapted to the raising
of stock.
Animal husbandry in China must
meet one immediate problem, and
that is, increasing and improving
production in the western part OF
the country and breeding for re-
stocking In the areas which will be
~re-oceupied when the Japanese are
driven out.
The heavy demands for food by
the American military, to say MOTH
ing Of China's own soldiers, make II
necessary for the Chinese to in
crease food production to the
utmost. At present, however, DR..
Phillips reported that except for the
famine areas where drouth or in
sects have affected the crops, the
Chinese people have more food
available than is popularity believed.
But they aren't making the most
Of their cows and pigs and chickens.
AS to the Chinese COW, about which
DR.. Phillips spoke with great feel
ing, one of the first things to do Is
to teach the Chinese peasant that 1t
gives milk and that milk is a pretty
good food. And then to improve the
breed so that it will give milk. AT
present, the COW is a beast Of bur-
den, a draft animal. However, 1t
isn't even as good a draft animal
as 1t could be. It will not be diff
cult to improve the breed so that 1t
will be more efficient as a beast OF
burden and as a milk giver at the
same time.
OF course, the Nomadic people
who live on the great plains OF
northern China, who live from their
herds, use the milk as food. mostly
dried in the form Of casein. They
also store butter. They have the yak
and a hybrid animal, a be-
tween a yak and a COW, which is
called a "pian-niu."
The chickens in China aren't
much to crow about either, l take
it, from DR.. Phillips description. II
they lay only SO to 60 eggs a year,
nobody complains. There. too,
breeding from selected types that
China already has would be a great
help.
DR.. Phillips likes the Chinese DON
keys and in spite of personal expert
ences on their backs, thinks Mon.
golian horses have possibilities.
Very good mules are produced by
crossing the Monaghan mare and
the donkey. But the Monaghan horse
Is a little, tough-mouthed, flat-with-
cred, crooked Legged animal which
could be greatly improved with
in~ter-breeding with a good saddle
horse strain.
