curved chain, has been the target for many Allied raids by land based bombers.
 The total area of the group is less than that of Rhode Island and the population was but 600,000. Largest of the islands is Okinawa, which is 56 miles long and from two to fourteen miles wide. Of volcanic origin, some of the island mountains still erupt.
 Shuri, the capital on Okinawa, occupies a rocky elevation some 400 feet high and three miles in- land from Naha, the principal port. In these two main centers and 50 or more smaller towns and villages, the island townsmen live mainly in one-story stone houses with dirt floors.
 There are many open plains on the islands, and there is no high grass or tangled undergrowth as in the tropics.

Pan American To Resume Commercial Services;
 Navy Contract Terminated As Of December 31, 1945

Commercial air transportation services across the Pacific may be resumed by Pan American World Airways by January 1, 1946, if not earlier, according ot an an- nouncement made today by L. C. Reynolds, Manager, Pacific-Alas- ka Division. The Pacific services which Pan American pioneered several years ago to the Philip pines and Australia were sus- pended at the time of Pearl liar Dor. Immediately thereafter and continually since the Company's entire facilities and organization have been devoted exclusively to military operations under contract to the Naval Air Transport Serv- ice.
 The contract under which Pan American has been operating the Clippers and other naval aircraft is to be terminated by December 31, 1945. This cancellation will permit resumption of commercial services to Honolulu and beyond, if conditions at that time permit.

Federal Auto Stamp Tax Must Be Affixed To
 Windshield By July 1

The new federal auto use tax stamp, which every privately owned motor vehicle on the high ways July l is required to dis play, differs in several respects from those issued heretofore.
 This $500 stamp, which goes on sale Saturday, June 9 at all post offices, and most internal revenue offices, is the first to bear a DOT trait and is the first printed in two-tone color, green.
 The portrait is of Daniel Mann ing. As result of its use, the de- sign is such that the long dimen- sion of the stamp is horizontal in stead of vertical, as were all pre- vious auto stamps. Manning was Secretary of the Treasury in Pres ident Cleveland's first cabinet. His was next in line in the series of secretaries portraits used on rev. enue stamps.
 The law requires not only that stamps be purchased, but that they be prominently displayed on vehicles. The lower right-hand corner of the windshield has been designated as the appropriate place to affix stamps.
 The Internal Revenue Collector suggests that when affixing the stamp the vehicle owner dampen the windshield instead of the ad- hesive side of the stamp. He said it is advisable to cover it with one of the protective adhesive shields offered for sale. Owners are urged to write the make and model of car, engine number and license num- Der on the reverse side of the stamp and to make a record of the stamp serial number.

BOYCOTT AND INDEMNITY
(Riverside Daily Press

(Riverside Daily Press)
The problem of getting recompense
from defeated enemy is not exactly like
getting blood out of turnip, but the
ultimate effect seems rather turnlpy.
After the last war Allies thought we
could recover lot Of their war costs by
making the Germans work for them, 1t
seemed all right at first; but the net re-
suit was that the Germans maintained
their factories. renewed competition with
us and armed themselves for another
war.
Now most Of the talk is for dismant
ling the present German war plants. Our
bombs have done this rather we'll; but
the Germans still have, and will continue
to have, a lot of factories hidden away.
Money payments can usually be avoided
by some hook or crook. 1t is hard to en-
force a boycott to keep the Germans from
selling profitably to other nations
This quest for a method Of practical
restitution is good exercise for master
minds

FOURTH OF JULY
SPIRIT STILL LIVES

Another anniversary of the signing of
the Declaration of Independence has
been met in stride by the American peo-
pie. Another observance of the spirit
rather than Of physical demonstrations.
For the fourtA year we remember our
declaration of liberty with world at
war - "A war that should bring about
some day soon, worldwide day of free
dom and liberty and peace
Although across the nation the day
was without public celebrations. there
was deep spiritual observance because
we still have a terrible war to win and
this Fourth became an occasion for
everyone 10 renew vows Of patriotism
and vows to center every effort to an
carly end TO the Pacific tragedy.
II may be that next year we can re-
turn % the traditional and hOnored Gus
tom Of real Fourth observance Let us
hope and pray this may be so.
