communique said.
Blitz Tactics Used
A Vichy (French) broadcast
said the Germans, supported by
Rumanian troops, opened the of
fensive by landing behind red
army lines on the Gulf of Feo
dosiya Friday night.
By late yesterday, the broad
cast said, the axis invaders had
knifed across the Kerch bottle
neck and reached the village of
Jouspcte, on the Gulf of Arabat,

running along the east coast of
the Crimea.
If axis accounts were true, this
action apparently cut off soviet
forces farther west, splitting the
soviet urmles in a familiar exam
ple of nazl tactics.
Soviet Numbers Superior ,
The Germans previously had
declared that the Russians were
numerically superior and that
fresh red army divisions were
massed at the rear of "a strong
and deep defense system" behind
a wide anti-tank trench.
According to this description,
the Russians still had consider
able strength waiting to meet the
German onslaught toward Kerch
City itself, which the Russians re
captured in a surprise landing
during a raging snowstorm last
Dec. 30.
Soviet dispatches pictured the
battle as developing amid furious
air attacks on both sides, with
low-flying Russian anti-tank
planes, called "stormers," destroy
ing 102 German aircraft and 34
nazl vehicles in two days.
The Germans said "all hell" had
had been let loose on the red
armies as squadron after squad-

On Martinique Demand
VICHY, May 13. (AP) The

an American note concerning

to grave questions."

House Votes Pay Hoist
To Army Enlisted Men
WASHINGTON, May 13 (AP)
The house voted tentatively
yesterday to raise the pay of
army enlisted men to a minimum
of $50 monthly, upping the figure
from the senate-approved rate
of $42.
Army and marine privates and
apprentice seamen would be paid
$50 monthly and first class pri
vates and second class seamen
$54.
The pay raise proposal came on
an amendment offered by Rep.
Rankin (D.-Miss.) who said the
increased compensation would
prevent a "bonus fight" after the
war.

Commander Theodore Penland,
97, Portland, called off the name
of Dan Daffron, 96, Forest Grove,
yesterday and that completed
roll-taking at the Oregon Grand
Army of the Republica conven

ought to explain why he was still
in civvies.
"I tried to enlist after Pearl
harbor," he explained. "Told 'em
I was 17, but they wouldn't take
me. We'll lick 'em anyhow."

the Japanese were bent on two
major objectives:
1. Driving up the Burma road
toward the heart of China, per

Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek's
war capital at Chungking, about
800 miles from Burma.
2. Driving Gen. Alexander's ex

Battle of Australia For the
first time in weeks, Gen. Douglas
MaeArthur's headquarters men
tioned no combat In any theater
of his land or sea front in the
southwest Pacific.
Bad weather limited aerial ac
tivity, but Australian dispatches
said the Japanese had apparently
received reinforcements for their
battered air bases in New Britain
and New Guinea and that renew
ed activity on a large scale was
expected within a few days.
Giant American flying fort

Japs Make Absurd Claims
The Japanese foreign office or
gan, Japan Times and Advertiser
of Tokyo declared today that as a
result of the battle of the Coral
sea the United States has been
relegated to a third-rate naval
power because "she now has only
half a dozen serviceable capital
ships which are hardly sufficient
to guard her far-flung coastline."
An imperial headquarters com
munique declared 103 opposing
planes had been shot down or de
stroyed in Japanese raids on Port
Moresby and Darwin in the Aus
tralian theater in the 19 days
from April 21 to May 10. Japa
nese losses were 12 planes, the
communique said.
Sixty representatives or Japa

Singapore organizing the supply
of Malayan rubber for Japan,
with large regular shipments soon
to start, the newspaper Nichi

(AP) Young Sergeant Carl Din

flaming airliner, crawled out and
yanked open the jammed cabin

gers trapped In the wrecked
plane. Three pilots, beyond res
cue, lost their lives.
After overshooting the Miles

Small Claims Department Created by Law,
Not by Justice of the Peace
In 1917, the legislature of this state passed a law creating in each Justice District in
the state a depaitment to be known as "Small Claims Department." This law is man
datory, and there is now, and has been, since passage of this law a "Small Claims
Department" created in each Justice District. A Justice of the peace has no author
ity to refuse to receive and act upon small claims filed under the provisions of this
law. As Justice of the Peace, just recently appointed by the Governor, I desire to
inform the people of this district that the Small Claims Department of this court is
open and available to all who desire to file their small claims in this department.
The Justice of the Peace in this district Is a very important officer. In the month of
April just past 65 criminal complaints were filed and four civil actions. I have heard
and disposed of 56 criminal cases during that month. The business of the office is
such that it requires my entire time and attention and it has not been possible for
me to make a personal campaign.
I respectfully solicit the support of the Republican voters on May 15th, and I pledge
my best efforts to do justice according to law.
