Many Feet of Paper on Earh Roll Observer Office Tokyo Jittery As Homeland Invasion Threat Increases (Continued from Page 1 American invasion .. forces may strike at Amami and Kikai is lands, 110 miles northeast of Oki nawa, before landing on Japan proper. . Tokyo said Suzuki bluntly call ed the present crisis "the greatest one since the Mongolian inva sion" in a message to the Jap anese people following 'a cabinet meeting. He pledged his govern ment's "grim determination" to resist invasion. 1 The prolonged defense of Oki nawa enabled Japan to improve her strategic position, he said, but added: : "Enemy air raids over Japan are likely to grow both in in tensity and lrequency, while ;new enemy invasion opeialions must alto be expected. Superfortresses dropped 3,000 tons of high-iqplosive demoli tion bombs on. factories along a 150-mile arc stretching through Akaslii, Osaka, Nngoya and Gifu in today's attack on the main enemy home island of Honshu. Never before had the B-29s hit so many separate targets on so large a scale. A Japanese com munique said eight Superfort resses were shot down and 14 others crippled, but claim prob ably was exaggerated. All 10 plants had been dam aged in earlier attacks, and to day's assault was designed to ad minister the coup de grace. Their dett ruction would bo a major step in the reduction of Japan's war potential preparatory to an invasion of the enemy huineland. On Okinawa, the captuie of an additional 794v prisoners Monday swelled Japanese casualties in the 86-dny campaign to 110,540 an unprecedented total of 8,606 prisoners and 1U1.K53 dead. Chinese Close In On Liuchow Base CHUNGKING, June 26 (UP) Fighting raged on throe sides of Liuchow today as the Japanese continued their desperate defense of-tlie air base city, the Chinese high command reported. Chinese troops opened another attack on the bitterly-contested airfield south of the city, first reached last Friday. To the north of the city, the Chinese captured Tapuchen and reached the western suburbs of Liuchepv, eight miles from Liu chow; ' ' , . ' The third column, driving along the Kwangsi-Kwantung railroad northwest of the city, crossed to the east bank of the Liu river to within three miles of Liuchow. Along the Chokiang coast, where the Chinese steadily were broadening a bridgehead oppo sit Okinawa, the Japanese who had evacuated Hwangyen were retreating north toward Linhai, the communique said.

He pointed out that his ostim ite of Ike possible loss and the seriousness of the situation wus borne out last week during the visit of Dr. Thomas Brindley with the United Stales department of agriculture at the university at Mo.scow, Idaho. Dr. Brindley made several sur veys in the area, which led him to address Grande Ronde valley farmers during n meeting in Im bler last week. Schaad staled that with an ex penditure of .$38,0110 in the valley practically nil loss can be pre vented. From 20 to 25 pounds of iijlcnone dust are required for each acre, he said, and propur rusting of approximately 60 per cent or 1T),:;0U awes will prevent the loss. Many fields .need only border dusting, he said. Use of the wee vil r:et and examination of tio In Ids will indicate to what ex tint the weevil has entered the field, urea and the depth to which dusting is required can then be del; i mined.
