For two days on our approach
we had been knocking off Jap
reconnaissance planes and picket
boats. We hoped We had got these
scattered planes and boats before
they had time to radio back home
the news of our presence. One of
our destroyers had even sat all day
on top of Jap submarine to keep
him from coming to the top and
sending a warning.
But still we didn't know for sure,
so there was tenseness that first
morning. We knew almost exact
ly what time our first planes would
be over the Tokyo area.
We went to the radio room to lis
ten. The usual Japanese programs
were on the air. We watched the
clock. Suddenly-at just the right
time-the Jap stations all went off
the air.
There was silence for a few min
utes. And then the most Donald
Duck-like screaming and jabbering
you ever heard. The announcer was
so excited you had to laugh.
We knew our boys were there.
And that, for us on the ship, it was
just matter of waiting, and hop
ing. And as the blackboard sign
said, of being poor scared pals.
Finally all but six of the planes
were back from their strike on
Tokyo and safely landed.
The six formed a separate flight,
and We couldn't believe that all of
them had been lost, and for that
reason our officers didn't feel too
concerned.
And then came a radio message
from the flight leader. It said that
one Of the six was down in the
ocean, and that the other five were
hanging around to try to direct
some surface vessel to his rescue.
That's all we knew Tor hours. When
We finally got the story, this was it:
Ems. Robert Buchanan of Glenn
enton, N. j., was hit by flax as they
were diving on their target some
20 miles west of Tokyo. Buchanan
himself was not hurt. I
He kept his plane up till he got
over water, but it was still very
much japanese water. In fact, it
was in Tokyo's outer bay-the big
ger one Of the two bays you see
on the map leading in to Tokyo.
Ensign Buchanan is an ace, with
five Jap planes to his credit. He
ditched his plane successfully, and
got out in his rubber boat. He was
only eight miles from shore, and
five miles from the big island that
stands at the bay entrance.
Then the flight leader took
charge. He is Lieut.. John Fecke
Of burberry, Mass. He Is also an
ace, and an old hand at the game.
He has downed seven Jap planes.
Fecke took the remaining four of
the flight, and started out looking
for an American rescue ship. They
found one about 80 miles off the
bay entrance.
They talked to him on the radio,
told him the circumstances, and he
sent back word he was willing to
try. But he asked them to stick
with him and give air support.
So Lieutenant Fecke ordered the
other four to stay and circle above
the ship, while he went back to
pick up Buchanan's location and
guard him.
But when he got there, he could
not find Buchanan. He flew for Is
minutes around Tokyo bay and was
about to despair, when he began
getting sun flashes in his eyes.
He flew over about three miles
and there was Buchanan. He had
used his signal mirror, just like it
says in the book.

WASHINGTON - What will

the worlds longest "conversa-
ton" has just come to q close
here in Washington, between
u. S. and British negotiators. It
began Sept. IL and ran almost
nonstop. This breaks the San

Why the conferees didn't run
out of things to talk about or
why they didn't bore each other
to death can be attributed to the
fact that they were talking about
(a) Love. or (b) Money. It wss
the latter Of course.
The conversations were popu-
larly known a. the British nego-
tiations for loan Of four or five
billion dollars, more or less. But
they talked about other things
too.
In all. something less than 100
people have been In on these
conversations. They have been
organized on three levels.
At the top has been the big
four - Assistant Secretary Of
State Will Clayton, who was
chairman; Secretary Of the
Treasury Fred M. Vinson, Brit

Earl of Halifax, and Lord

fingered over a magazine. Mean
while, the socialite decided she
