Third Plane Faces Jam
The third B-29, commanded by
I.t. Kverett P. Abar of Concord.
N. H., got over Tokyo and found
the bombay doors stuck and all
guns InoiM'iatlve. In the meager
antiaircraft fire he saw a few
phospherous bombs, the first re
ported dropped over Tokyo by de
fending Japanese planes. He fin
ally got the doors open and bomb
ed a small Island down the coast.
Night fighters attacked his plane
20 to 30 times. Their tracers came
in from all directions but none
got close to the defenseless Su
perfortress. The previous night a B-29 un
der the command of Lt. Harold E.
Sargent of Waymert, Penn.,
bombed Nngoya's suburb ot Shi
monoshikl, three miles southwest
of that twice-hit city, touching
off a large exnolslon with flames
roaring to 1.000 feet.
Chinese Score Gain
On the central China front Jap
anese resistance stiffened ugalnst
Chinese advancing s o u t heast
along the Kwangsl Kwelchow
railway. Chinese captured a dom
inating height outside Hochih and
pressed attacks against the city.
A Chinese broadcast from Ycn
an said the 8th route army recov
ered 3,0(i0 square miles of north
China and liberated 1.405 villages
with a population of 259,032 in
the first ten months of 1944.
Bom b-carrying China - based
American fighters sank a tanker
yesterday and probably sank a de
stroyer and two freighters off
Hong Kong. Other Mustangs de
stroyed seven Japanese aircraft,
including two shot down over
still blazing Hankow.
Congress in Harmony
As Session Closes
(Continued from page 1)
breaking 77th congress, It appro
priated approximately $182,000,
000.000 and sent the national
debt limitation up to $200,000,
000,000 to match the almost in
calculable demands of war.
Although a wast sum was set up
for spending, much of the total
remained in reservoirs as yet un
obligated by contracts. Actual
spending this year was approxi
mately $ti7.000,OOtl,000, compared
with $115,000,000,000 In the pre
vious 12 months.
To meet ubout half of that
drain, congress passed a scries of
venue raising mils wnicn ooosi-
ed income lax rates to unprece
dented heights and laid heavy ex
cise taxes on many items, not all
in the luxury class.
One of the most important bills
enacted this frill sets up rules for
the disposal of an estimated $100,
000,000,000 worth of surplus goods,
plants, machinery and land held
by the government as a result of
the war. The senate approved the
president's first two nominees to
surplus property board - former

U. S.-China Domination
Of Pacific Held Needed
The Pacific area should be dom
inated by the United States and
China following the current war,
in the opinion of W. G. Paul, who
spoke before the Roseburg Ki
wanis club at Its regular Tues
day luncheon program.
Mr. Paul, who has travelled ex
tensively in the Orient and Far
East, believes it will take many
years to completely subdue the
Japanese, and when the task Is
completed the United States and
China should take Joint action,
he believes, to patrol the Pacific
area to prevent Japan from again
becoming a military power.
He advocated allocation of sev
eral large Pacific islands to the
Japanese for colonization, to care
for surplus population, but con
tended they should be safeguard
ed to prevent development for
military use.
