As the planes swept past aeain. the little people who had suffered nearly three years under Japanese despotism returned to the street. Fearlessly they stood in the open. Some waved as the planes passed overhead. Thus the reborn American navy, which had been forced to stand by while the Philippines fell early in the course of the war, struck its first blow for the islands' free dom. Tonight we have completed our attack on Mindanao and are steam ing away for a brief respite be fore hitting the islands between Mindanao and Luzon. For two days this mighty car rier task force commanded by Vice Admr. Marc A. Mitscher struck at will against the island's many airfields, harbors and in stallations, from Surigao in the north to Davao in the south.

The carriers themselves paced up and down Mindanao's eastern coastline with impunity. . One time we were so close I could see the island's high coast line a mass through the distant haze as we patrolled over the famed "Mindanao deep," deepest point in any ocean. Initial attacks yesterday caught the enemy off balance. By dusk navy planes sank or damaged SO ships ranging from small mer chantmen to one ship of 15.000 tons or more: destroyed scores of coastal sampans which Japan is now pressing into service to re place shipping losses: shot down eight planes in 4he air and de stroyed 60 on the ground. Japanese reconnaissance bomb ers appeared near our task force only occassional and never atr tatfked. One was shot down by a Hellcat and the. others stayed away, . . . Our biggest single attack virtu niiv put in niprpK a convov of more than 50 ships, including 20 sam pans qff the east coast of .Min danao. Many of these light craft have been carrying supplies to Davao from Japan since May. ' Hellcats sighted the convoy and started the carnage with a strafing attack that littered the sea with burning hulks and debris.

For nearly a half hour the Hellcats, led by Lt. Cmrd. Franklin Cook Jr., swept back and forth over the harbor while bombs dropped from dive bombers and torpedo planes over head. Cmdr. Richard McGowan, Alex andria, Va., led dive bombers in an attack against largo cargo ship or transport in the harbor. When last seen the ship was burning. 19 More Divorces Make Record Month Nineteen more divorce decrees were granted by Judge G. F.
