Off Florida Coast

CAMP GORDON JOHNSTON,
Fla, Aug. 4.-W.H)-Army intelli-
gence officers revealed today that
an unoccupied life raft from a
German submarine was found off
the north Florida coast last Sum-
day and that they still were try
ingto discover whether it landed
any passengers on the shore.
The raft, fully stocked with
food and equipment, was discov-
cred by an army boat four miles
north of Dog Island, just off the
Florida coast near Carrabelle.
A theory that the raft-With oo-
cupants-had been ashore and
later carried back to sea by high
tides was not discounted

CITY SUPPORTING
AIRPORT MEASURE

City Clerk j. r. Benson was
instructed to wire all members
of the North Carolina House of
Representatives urging support Of
the Lee Airport Aid bill by the City
Council yesterday after receipt Of
telegram from the U. S. Confer
ence of Mayors.
The bill, if passed, will authorize
funds for airport development
with the Civil Aeronautics Author
ity providing so per cent and cities
the other half.
The board also complied with
telegraphed request that it incor-
porate in it's wires to Congressman
a request that they oppose any
amendments which might be added
to the bill providing for the funds
to be channeled through any inter-
mediary agencies, with particular
reference to State organizations.
Councilman J. E. L. Wade sup
ported the first proposal but De.
clined to vote on the latter until
he had had the opportunity to con-
suit with members Of a State com-
mittee on airports.
An unsuccessful motion introduc.
ed by Mr.. Wade just prior to the
reading of the telegram provided
that ''the Mayor appoint a com>
mittee of not less than seven MEM
bers to make complete and defin-
tie study, looking to municipal
amphibious air field, same to be
located along the riverfront, so
that we might be in a position to
apply for our rightful share from
the many billions of dollars being
appropriated by Congress for the
purpose of airfields, since it has
been officially reported that there
is being an addition of 5000 fields

ISLE OF DESPAIR
OkinaWa is BOttleneck

OKINAWA, Oct. 20 -R-
This typhoon battered island
where some of the bitterest
fighting of the. Pacific war rag
ed has become the bottleneck
for United States service men
frantic to return home.
Already it has been labeled
by some as The Island Of Des-
pair"
AS the war ended, Okinawa
had become a huge staging base
preparatory to invasion of ia
pan. The collapse of the jap
anese left the island heavily pop
ulated with troops.
Then, on Oct. 9 and 10,
fierce typhoon swept in from
the sea, flattening quonset huts,
smashing III ipping, ripping
grounded airplanes. An already
serious transportation problem
trebled overnight.
Men here agree the typhoon
not alone was the cause Of their
troubles, but it was obvious it
greatly aggravated the entire

situation. The food question be-
came acute. Parachuted rations
were only a temporary allevi-
alton. Loss of mail was consid-
cred an especially hard blow by
men anxious to hear from their
wives and families.
Food transport still is the big
gest problem facing harassed
authorities. At this base where
hundreds of ships may be seen
offshore, troops complain they
are not getting enough to eat.
The men aboard the ships are
not faring too we'll, either. They
are subsisting mainly on monot-
onous diet rations.
One soldier sitting on bunk
in a leaky tent seemed to typify
the Illustration of the men on
Okinawa. He had requested en-
Urgency leave a month before
because of the serious illness
of his wife. Now he was wait
ing a reply from headquarters.
Life always was glum on this
twice-wrecked island but it is
