Question: When was the paper started that the Lt. Commander of the Jack Miller in 1944 worked for as a correspondent for before the war? Passage:After shakedown along the U.S. East Coast and in the Gulf of Mexico, Jack Miller sailed from Norfolk, Virginia, 13 June 1944, arriving Pearl Harbor 12 July via the Panama Canal Zone and San Diego, California. After more intensive training out of Pearl Harbor, she departed on 24 July screening a convoy to Eniwetok, where she arrived on 2 August. The remainder of the month was spent on patrol and convoy duty. Jack Miller sailed from Eniwetok on 2 September and, after escorting a convoy to Saipan, took up harbor patrol duty there. Antisubmarine patrols, convoy screening, and escort duty kept Jack Miller busy for the next nine months. During this period she sank five mines. In late 1944 Jack Miller came under the command of Lt. Commander Vermont C. Royster; he had served as the White House correspondent of The Wall Street Journal before the war. After the war ended, Lt. Commander Royster would leave the Navy and resume his journalism career at the Wall Street Journal; he would eventually become the paper's editor-in-chief in 1958.

question:
Question: Is the Philippine Sea part of the Pacific Ocean? Passage:Nueva Camarines is the name of a proposed new province of the Philippines to be created out of Camarines Sur in the Bicol Region of the island of Luzon. The proposed province would border Camarines Sur to the west, the Philippine Sea to the north, Albay to the south, and to the east the island province of Catanduanes across Maqueda Channel. Its capital is expected to be Tigaon if the bill is passed. House Bill 4820 which would create the province passed the House of Representatives of the Philippines with 229 votes in favor to one against in 2011 and is now under consideration by the Senate of the Philippines. However, at the end of 15th Congress, it failed to pass to the Senate. In the 16th Congress under then Representative Felix William Fuentebella, a bill is yet to be filed to repropose the creation of the province, due to lack of support from fellow Camarines Sur Representatives Maria Leonor Robredo and Salvio Fortuno. In the 18th congress under new Representative Arnulf Bryan Fuentebella.
