Saigon Called Useless
Due 10 Air Attacks
By the Associated Press.

. DS tIle ASSOCldleQ fTeSS.
MANILA, May 12.-Maj. Gen.
Ennis C. Whitehead, commander of
the 5th Air Force, expressed the be-
lief today that seven attacks on the
Japanese shipping base at Saigon,
French Indo-China, between April
% and May had rendered it vir-
tually useless.
Gen. Whitehead based his opinion
On aerial reconnaissance photo
graphs.
An officer on his staff described
the Saigon base as second to Singa-
pore as an enemy naval repair base.
Raids also knocked out a submarine
base, Oil fuel storage facilities and
sunk, destroyed or damaged 95 mer-
chant vessels and two navy craft.
Strikes were made by Liberators
Mitchells and fighter bomber planes.
CALCUTTA, May IL (P.-British
forces, operating from newly won
Rangoon, launched air and land at
tacks yesterday to clear the way for
an invasion of Thailand and Malaga
Other forces continued to advance
south from Prone in the face of
some enemy opposition.
British 4th Corps headquarters
announced that British troops had
counted 1870 slain japanese in
their drive through Burma.

Reconquest Of Burma
Completed; British
Turn 10 Singapore
By the Associated Press.


CALCUTTA, May 12.-With Ran
goon captured and the campaign in
Burma virtually ended, troops OF
Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten's
Southeast Asia Command turned
their eyes toward Singapore today
as their next likely objective.
While some of Admiral Mount
batten's men have been in the jun
giles for a year or more and are
badly in need of rest, others are
comparatively fresh and could be
quickly made ready for a new cam
paign.
The latter include the forces
which went into Rangoon in a
combined sea and air operation
just such troops as would be needed
for landing on the Malay PENN
sula north of Singapore or on the
island of Sumatra, across Malacca
Strait from Malaga.
This special group of paratroop-
ers and amphibious troops is backed
by a fleet growing III size week by
week and likely to increase now
that the European campaign is
ended.
A drive to oust the japanese
from Malaga would compare with
other operations in the Pacific
which have been launched from
bases 400 to 900 miles away from
the objectives.
Trincomalee, the British naval
base in Ceylon, is 600 miles across
the Bay of Bengal from Sumatra,
which lies between India and Sin
gapore. Yet Trincomalee is the
only suitable harbor on the eastern
coast of India where the major ele-
ments of an amphibious expedition
could be assembled. Even Rangoon

laps End Banzai Charges
District General Reports
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
i WITH THE UNITED STATES
38th DIVISION ON THE SHIMBU
LINE, Philippines, May 12-The
japanese who are bloodily resisting
American troops on this mountain
front northeast of Manila have
abandoned banzai charge tactics.
1--WE haven't had a banzai attack
in several weeks" said Brig. Gen.
Robert H. Soule, assistant COM
mander of Maj. Gen. William C..
Chase's 38th Division.
The Nips must have decided that
the charges were too costly. We
were always glad to have them be-
cause it was the easiest way to NOV
them down. Now we have to dig
them out or blast them from their
holes"
Gen. Soule's home is at 1914 Con-
necticut avenue NV, Washington,

tinued. 1--WE should have progressed
far beyond such a system long
ago."
Because of the "very dificult'
problems of proper supervision in
large institutions, Father O'Grady
said, big detention homes for de-
linquent youth tend to become
schools for crime" as one inmate
teaches another how to do big
ger and better crimes"
The Coffee subcommittee also
heard a number of other civic
SpokeSmen on many budget re-
quests. Among these were:
Asks Fund for Orchestra.
Mrs. Aalter Bruce Howe for the
Board of the National Symphony
Orchestra Association, urging a
$4,000 fund to aid in financing
children's concerts at the schools
by the orchestra.
Mrs. Harold N. Marsh, Mrs. Wal
ter Ufford. Mrs. D. K. Brundage and
Mrs. Wilbur La Roe who called for
appropriations to continue the
employment of Health Department
housekeeper aides, who serve "medi-
cally indignent" families.
Mrs. Millard L. Kenestrtck, legis-
lative chairman for the District
Congress of Parent and Teachers,
who urged support for the proposed
basic pay increase for school
teachers.
Mrs. Paul Cleveland and Mrs.
James T. Jardine, of the League
OF Women Voters, who urged in
creased appropriations for the
mental hygiene clinics and contin-
uation Of the psychiatric unit at the
Juvenile Court, higher grants for
adult relief and for employment
of SO additional case workers

Westinghouse Urge
Immediate Action on
Welfare HOUSING

The Washingtonians last night
urged immediate cooperation of the
District Commissioners with the
Board of Public Welfare in prepar-
ing plans for the construction of a
new Receiving Home and an Indus
trial Home School,
The action followed the comments
of several members concerning the
"deplorable" conditions of the pres
ent buildings which allow only lin
tied space for segregation" and mo
space for occupational therapy."
Present plans call for the new Re-
ceiving Home to be built on land
adjacent to Gallaudet College. 1t
was suggested by one member, how
ever, that instead of employing the
services of the District architect, it
would be more feasible to have the
plans for the new buildings drawn
up by an architect familiar with
that particular type of construction
Oppose Health Assistant.
The group also moved to oppose
creation of the Office of assistant
health officer, as "the services of one
health officer are adequate enough
