These merchants are making
money-good money. A string Of
beads retails for as high as $25. An
aluminium watch band runs to
$3.50 unless the buyer wants few
palms, crocodiles and flowers en-
graved on the band. Samurai
swords have sold for as high as
$500 and the average price for such
a Japanese weapon is $400. The
greeting cards decorated with but
terfiy wings peddle for about SIS,
and the former wrestler is willing
to teach his tricks for So per hour.
Carved bookends are available for
$50 set, and a walking stick can
be had for anywhere from $40 to
500, depending on the carving and
the current demand for walking
sticks.

If his money had held out, he said,
or If he had had burro to carry
his purchases he could have added
such articles to his miscellany as
mounted butterflies, wrist watch
bands, Japanese battle flags, teak
wood bookends, surfboards, beads,
tom toms. genuine copies of Sep
tember Morn" and a contract en-
titling him to six lessons in Graeco-
Roman style wrestling.
None of these commodities is
available in the PXs which dot the
island. So where do they come
from? They come from the scores
of doughboy merchants who have
set up shop in stheir jungle tents
and foxholes. Some are manufac-
turers who can take some of this,
some of that, something borrowed,
something blue, something old, and
something new and make a salable
bit of merchandise from it.
Some Are Traders.
Some are traders. They swap
everything under the sun among
themselves as the law of supply and
demand dictates. If trader locates
a customer who wants set Of
mounted Empress Augusta butter
flies, but who has nothing better to
offer than set of vases made from
90-millimeter shell cases, he will dig
up fellow trader who has Empress
Augusta butterflies to spare and
make swap.
Others are spoilers, GIs blessed
with sixth sense, that enables
them to detect prospective Gus
toner half mile away. The spot
ters" also have ears to the ground
which keep them informed as to
the merchandise most in demand at
the moment, and, equally important,
recent winners at poker, crap, black
jack and other intellectual outlets
of the doughboys
The manufacturers consider them
selves a bit above the traders and
spectators. And there is great
rivalry among them, especially
among those who manufacture the
same articles.
Craftsmen who make necklaces
from the "cat's-eye" shells that
abound on the beaches belittle the
polishing and stringing technique of
their competitors, ana the wrist
watch band artisans who use alu-
minum salvaged from wrecked
planes scorn the work of rivals who
use plastic glass obtained from the
same source.
The same battle goes on between
the jungle artists who will whip
up water color of any subject, be
1t the active volcano on the island
at work or daring treatment of
the purchaser taking a shower in
the rain. There are creators of

Last Grurnman-BuiIt
Avenger Now In Combat
By STAFF SERGEANT HAROLD POWELL
MARINE Corps Combat Correspondent

GREEN ISLAND, New Ireland
(Delayed)-Inscribed with the good
wishes of aircraft workers, the last
Avenger torpedo bomber built by
Grammar Aircraft Corporation,
Bethpage, Long Island, New York
City, is now being flown in combat
in this theatre.
With at least 80 missions under
her wing" several of them bombing
strikes against Rabaul, the bomber
is the pet of Marine squadron,
commanded by Major A. c. Robert
son, 535 Marguerite Street, Coro-
nado, Calf
Several pilots of the squadron
have flown the plane and they claim
it handles like a baby and has a
charmed life"
The mechanic in charge, Techni-
cal Sergeant John Valasakos, New
Bedford, Mass, who keeps the Aven-
ger shining from propeller to stabi-
lizer, reports only one bullet hole in
the tail assembly from anti-aircraft
fire.
Completed and inspected on De-
cember 81, 1913, the bomber, nick
named the mission Accomplished, -
illustrates the speed with which
planes are sent to the combat zone.
Since this bomber was completed,
Grammar, her designer, has turned
to production of newer type combat
craft. although other manufacturers
continue to make the Avenger
(TBM).
Flown across the United States by
Test Pilot c. E. Rogers, the bomber
arrived at West Coast port for
overseas shipm i'll January.
There, motor and working parts re-
ceived coating of heavy oil, pre-
tentative against salt spray.

BOUGAINVILLE ID lay d.
Certain phases of actions following
recent savage battles on this island
offer almost unbelievable studies in
contrast.
The other day a United States
warship fired scores of shells into
Japanese territory only few thou
sand yards south of the beach at
Empress Augusta Bay. Smoke from
the explosions could be clearly seen
against wooded hills in the back
ground. Marine dive bombers, per-
fectly visible from the beach, were
blasting Jap gun emplacement in
the same sector.
Defenses around gun positions Of
a Marine unit and rumbling tanks
raising clouds of dust on the road by
Torokina air strip contributed to the
war-like scene. Shells from our
heavy guns were roaring out toward
Jap-held hills, sounding like freight
trains in the distance.
An offensive war was being car
ried on.
All the while, in the surf, Amer
