DRAMATIC RESCUE
 MADE BY BRIT. SUB,
 D0WNED U. S. FLYER
BY EUGENE BURNS Associated Press War
 Corresuondent

ABOARD AN AMERICAN CAR- RIER OFF SABANG, April 19.- (Delayed) Under smoking guns of coastal batteries, a British submar- inc made one of the most dramatic rescues of the war when it picked up American pilot It. Dale Klon- dike Klahn of Laramie, Wyoming, shot down in a task force blow against Sabang and Lhonga.
 Swift Navy planes had hopped off from the carrier to wreck Jap planes and ships, docks, oil tanks and other installations.
 Klahn's plane was downed. Twelve Hell Cats spread a Star Spangled umbrella over his little yellow life raft while the sub, being nailed down by the Jap Air Force and a Jap destroyer, which tried to approach, was unanswered to the life raft and rescued Kahn. Great credit is given skipper It. Comdr. Robert Dose, 29, of Coronado, Calif., who supervised the umbrella spread of the Hell Cats, none of which were lost while aiding the sub and pro- tecting Klahn.

lDM. KING SAYS U. }. NAVY, NOW
 GREATEST EVER

WASHINGTON, April "A. - Ad- miral E. J. King, telling how the U. s. Navy Twas caught short at Pearl Harbor, urges that never again should the Navy be permitted to dwindle into its comparative weakness of piewar days.
 His plea appears in his first off, |ficial report of progress in the war and recounts the heroic measures by which the Navy has been built up to its present stature as the greatest in the world, and while ready to defend itself and the Na- ton, the fleet is ready to travel to the Far East and victory"
 The Admiral said the encircle- ment of Germany is in sight and the situation in the Pacific must be dark for tho Japanese. Subs are playing a major part now in the war and surface craft and planes are whiting down the enemys merchantmen"

UNCLE JOE \. 5TnWELL
 CURIOUS
BY TOBY WANT

WITH GENERAL STILWELL IN NORTHERN BURMA JUNGLE-Lt. Gen. Joseph w. fUncle Joel Stil- wells unquenchable curiosity makes him work many times harder physically as well as mentally than anyone under his command. He listens to what his subordinates have to say about situations or ter rain-then finds out himself just how accurate they are. Not that he doesn't trust them. He's just cur- ious.
 Every American in the jungle calls him Uncle Joe," or "The Old Man"-not to his face, but not dis respectfully. He apparently likes to be known as Uncle Joe," because he permitted Uncle Joe's Chariot" to be painted on the nose of his plane in which he commutes about China, Burma and India
 Stilwell would have made one Of the best reporters ln the pusineSS. He always wants to know the who. what, why, when and where-and doesn't stop asking questions until he finds out.
 He is 63 years old, but seems not more than 50. He can-and does outwalk soldiers 20-30 years young er. He sets such fast pace that troops war correspondents gasp for breath after the first mile or so
 His curiosity has led him over virtually every important inch of the Hukawng Valley, where Am erican trained -and-equipped Chin- ese are driving the Japs south ward to give American engineers building the Ledo Road plenty of room.
 When Stilwell issues an order. he knows exactly what that order entails. He personally has been over the area and memorized each hill, ravine, trail and river.

 ANY MORE TAXES

Howard D. Stabler, of Juneau, Republican candidate for the Sem ate, stated today that he is not in favor of any new or additional Ter ritorial taxes or tax programs at this time.
 The Juneau attorney said he also is for fighting to recover the Am erican principles of government by limiting the powers of appointed boards, bureaus and commissions to executive functions. for the elim- ination of regulations and restric- tions of individual rights and lib- critics not essential to the success full prosecution of the war.
 Stabler is running for office this year for the first time. He served as Assistant U. s. Attorney here from 1921 to 1929, and as United States Attorney for the First Di- vision fr0m 1929 to 1883. Since that time he has carried on a private law practice here.
