' MORE ABOUT Navy Battle (Continued From Paje One) Japanese naval spokesman as saying that war results of the Immediate future should be watched closely. Results Important "A big naval battle In the Marl anas area will have far-reaching results on the Pacific war situa tion," he was said to have added. The American fleet already has won what may be the preliminary to the main engagement by shoot ing down a record of 600 Japa nese planes which sought to in terfere with American invasion forces rapidly completing the con quest of Saipan, Japanese naval base and administrative center of the Marianas, some 1,500 miles south of Tokyo. Three hundred of the enemy planes were shot down in a single day, Sunday, and the others have been destroyed in other engage ments since the start of the in vasion a week ago today, Nimltz disclosed. Additional damage was believed to have been inflicted on the enemy yesterday, he said. Carriers Nearby Most of the enemy planes were believed to nave come from Japa nese aircraft carriers, perhaps part of the fleet which now la known to be east of the Philip pines. Though the exact size of the fleet Is not known, Japan Is believed to have nine to 15 battle ships and undertermined num bers of aircraft carriers, cruisers and destroyers. The American fifth fleet, under Admiral Raymond A. Spruance, conqueror of the Gilbert and Mar shall Islands, already was known to include the largest carrier task force in history, as well as battle ships, cruisers, destroyers and other warships. The Domei agency said the fleet was composed of the "greater part of the enemy s warships In the Pacific ocean.

Nimitiz told his press confer ence that he hoped the Japanese fleet ' would remain In the area and "give us a chance to get at them." "I don't know anything else we can do to provoke fleet action," he said. "We have already at tacked their key position in the western Pacific." "Unfortunately, I don't control their movements. If I did, then there would be a fight." m PLANES MISSING London, June 21 mi The U- S. , eighth air force announced today that 43 bombers and 15 fighters were missing on today s raid on Berlin, based on Incomplete fig I urcs. ! Phone 703 THE BEND BULLETIN. BEND. OREGON WEDNESDAY, JUNE 21, Chileans Plan for Timber Harvest Telllne an Interesting story of how Chileans are planning their economic future after the war. Burnett H. Payne, of the Umber management branch of the U. S. Forest service In Portland, today arrived here In the Interests of timber exchanges In the Deschutes national forest. He planned to re turn to Portland tomorrow. Payne, a member of a five-man commission borrowed from the United States, just completed more than five months' stay In the South American republic tak ing a timber inventory of that country. The commission esti mated that Chile has 175,000,000, 000 feet of marketable timber. mostly hardwood. Since synthetic nitrates was an offshoot of the war, Chile faces a business setback in Its mining of this product, Payne stated, and therefore Is looking to the devel opment of its vast timber re sources for post-war security. uiflathm Arrives Inflation has already hit Chile, Payne said, with prices for most commodities soaring, and hotel rates rank with the most lofty in the United States. Because of a dire shortage of oil in Chile, gasoline rationing 1s severe in the coifntry, Payne stated. He lauded the hospitality of the people, and said that they look to ,the United States for guidance not only in military but in economic affairs. An organiza tion similar to the reconstruction finance corporation In the states has been set up In the southern republic to further the timber program, Payne explained. All logging operations in Chile are done by oxen, Payne said. , MORE ABOUT Nazi Garrison (Continued from Page One) ing the 155-millimeter long toms which had been shelling Cher bourg, set fire to a forest south west of Cherbourg in a bid to smoke out the nazis blocking the approaches to the port. American ' troops spurted six miles northward from captured Valognes, 10 miles southeast of Cherbourg, during the night in an I advance which Gorrell described as "very fast," Indicating that the resistance on that flank had crum bled. The German high command dis missed the battle of Cherbourg with a single sentence in its daily communique "The enemy prob ed with minor forces against the southern front of the Cherbourg fortress." 20,000 Nazis Trapped The final battle for Cherbourg, France third largest port and rail road of a double trunk railway to Paris, was joined and 20,000 Ger mans faced annihilation after ap parently rejecting an allied bid for their surrender. (A London broadcast heard by CBS said Marshal Gerd von Rund stedt, German commander In France, had ordered the garrison of Cherbourg to "hold out to the last man.") Unconfirmed and apparently premature reports said some Americans already had penetrated Cherbourg, but more reliable In formation indicated the climactic battle was raging one to three miles from the city's limits.

Federal Aid Need Stressed By Snell Eugene, Ore., June 21 IP Oregon should accept federal aid in providing post-war employ ment because It cannot handle the problem alone, Governor Earl Snell told the annual convention of the Oregon state federation of labor here Tuesday night.
