U. s. Pacific Fleet Headquarters, Guam, Feb. 21-(UP)-American warships poked within easy range of Japanese shore guns on Two lima Tuesday to support Marines slug-- ging forward from the southern end of the island, Navy It. Levings $. Willis of Philadelphia said today
 Willis. a former United Press re- porter, spent almost three hours over the island in photographic plane.
 "Our battleships and cruisers were not more than a mile of shore" Willis said. "The destroyers ap-- peared to be only a few hundred yards out and the fleet completely encircled the island
 Clouds covered most of the island when we arrived about II a. m' Scores of dive-bombers and fighters were circling and looking for holes in the clouds through which to bomb and strafe enemy positions ahead of the Marines.
 We could see skirmlsh line ol tanks moving toward the center of the island. The Marines were firing 25 to 30 mortar shells at once against the base of Surtbachi Yama. You could see the flashes and then smoke at the foot of the mountain.
 Meanwhile, the battleships just sat there off the east shore throw ing shells mostly into the central part of the island. You could sec the brilliant flashes from the ships and seconds later the shells would hit. The concusslon was so great it shook our plane"
 Willis said thousands of Marines were ashore and that they had es- tablished line across the island between the south and central air. fields.

Curfew Hits
 Wor Workers
(By United Press)

< War Manpower Commission ofn- nials wrestled today with the prob- lem of how to enforce the entertain ment curfew which goes into effect Monday. Authoritative Washington sources hinted that the restrictions might be relaxed in some areas where war workers would be denied recreation.
 Strong opposition to the midnight Gurfew on night life ordered by War Mobilization Director James F. Byrnes materialized on the west coast and in New York and Chi cago.
 The spark of the west coasts hopes were kindled by the Washing ton predictions that some excep- tions might be made. The Wash ington sources said, however, that any exemptions likely would be only flor movie houses and possibly bowling alleys and would be granted for the benefit of swing shift workers.
 VINO officials had not decided on a means of enforcing the order. "All we know said one official, lis that the curfew bell rings next Monday night, but nobody seems to know for whom the bell tolls"
 WING officials said Byrnes in handing them the enforcement job did not indicate how he wanted them to carry out his order. which was designed to conserve fuel, man. bower and transportation.
 In Chicago, Thomas Rosenberg, attorney for the Chicago Cafe Own CTS association, said that organiza- tion was considering asking Byrnes to move the curfew back to 2 a. m. and order a complete shutdown one night week.
 Rosenberg said the owners be- 1ieved more fuel could be saved by 6 "A hour shutdown than by closing at midnight every night.
 Billy Rose, owner of the Diamond Horseshoe and vice president of the New York Cafe Owners Guild, told an emergency meeting of operators from New York, Philadelphia, Chi cago and Boston last night that the curfew was promoted by "a multi million dollar prohibition lobby in Washington.
 He said that as soon as the emer- gency was over i've will fight those clements that slipped prohibition over on us after the last war and are trying to do so again in this war"
 The New York operators agreed to grudging compliance with the curfew, which becomes effective Monday, and said they would try tc remain open by moving their floor shows to before midnight hours,
 A. L. Eversole. chairman of the National Bowling Council, said bowling alley operators considered "it would be very short sighted tc oppose the ban"
 He said exceptions might be sought in Cleveland and Cincinnati to per init the alleys to remain open unti 3 a, M, for war workers

Iniuns Wont Ickes Scalp

Washington, Feb. q (UP)-Woo- Woo- woo-woo. 1njunS! I think a paleface is about to get scalped. Name of Ickes. Harold L.
 The war bonnets are hanging on the hat racks in the senate's Indian affairs committee room. The cases along the walls are full of Toma- hawks. Sen. Elmer Thomas of Ok lahoma is sore. So is Sen. Harlan J. Bushfield of South Dakota. Sen. Dennis Chavez of New Mexico is going to find out what's wrong with the Indian bureau, if he has to abolish it.
 As for Chief Yellowtail, boy-oh- boy. I'm glad my names not 1ckes.
 The morning started peacefully. A dozen Indians sat quietly in blue serge suits listening to a dozen senators open hearings on the nomination of William A. Brophy, an albuquerque paleface, as com missioner of Indian affairs. Nobody had anything much against Brophy, except that he was no Indian. But what they had against the Indian bureau was plenty.
 Congress passed lew about estates of rich Indians in Okla homa, said Sen. Thomas, and the president vetoed it on the recom- lnendation of the Interior depart ment.
 And I had two poor Indians in South Dakota who wanted a patent on 140 acres of land" added Sen. a1 T tho lQW Roth houses of Congress passed 1t. And what happened? It was vetoed. This business of the Itnerior department circumventing the wishes of Con- gress has got to stop"
 Chairman Joseph c. O,Mahoney said he'd call Ickes to explain (those tomahawks looked like they'd been sharpened. Sen. Chavez said that was good because the Indian commissioner was only a clerk for the Interior secretary.
 Rep. William c. Stigler of Stig- Ter, Okla, ChoctaW Indian him. self, said what the Indians needed was an Indian for commissioner. So did Rep. Paul Stawart of Okla homa, who is no Indian, but whose best friends are.
 Then came Chief YelloWtail in a green whipcord suit, bright blue necktie of Indian wool and tur- uuoise ring. The chief is superin- tendent of the Crow Reservation in Montana. He charged that Indian bureau officials lolled in million dollar headquarters in Arizona while the Indians starved in grass Shacks.
 He said there were Indians who'd never heard of Washington, or Congress or the great white father He said they'd made no progress in 50 years, because of commis- sioners who shouted: T love you I love you, I love you"
 "They say this" the chief said ''and they do nothing"
 Grief Yellowtail said the govern ment could look far and find worse Indian commissioner than Chiei Yellowtail.
 T am a candidate for the job. he said. T know I could do better fob than this, this /. ." He looked in Brophy's direction.
 6EIl. ouL OOLl IA VAACCACA OA AvANAA tana asked if he'd made his wishes known at the White House. The chief said the appointment came too quickly for him to keep up witf 1t and while President Roosevelt was somewhere in Russia.

Or perhaps he listened to orators who cared not for the truth, if they could succeed in pro- noting religious hatred and earn their 30 pieces of silver.
 If we should ask MT. x to dis regard such racketters and to search the records of priests and nuns who have been "exed" from their orders, MT. X would prob ably say that he had neither time nor interest. Perhaps we shouldn't blame him for that.
 But to all the ME. KS we make this appeal: Take two minutes time to think the thing out. If all the accusations aganist the Church, from the days of the Apostles down to the present time, were true, how could the Church have lasted for 1900 years? How could she have mounaed to a membership today of over 338 900 900? How can she draw into her fold more than 85,QOO people yearly in the U. s. A. alone in England about 13,000 each year?
