Aided By Rain
' Portland, Feb. 21 (IP) Rain
and snow buoyed the hopes of
wheat growers in eastern Ore

Bid prices on principal classes
at the close of the week were
generally about 2 cents per
bushel from the previous week.
Demand for cash wheat contin
ued slow at north coast termi
nals but midwestern inquiries
for soft northwest wheat contin
ued good and steady sales were
reported.
The boxcar shortage continu
ed to hamper railroad shipments
from country points and grow
ers were offering less freely.
Receipts at Columbia river and
Puget Sound terminals totaled
305 cars, Including 100 at Port
land, compared to 460 for the
week before.

Pattern of the March Against Japan W) Solid arrow from Hawaiian islands represents U. S.
navy attack on Truk, Japan's southwest Pacific naval bastion, which marks wane of Japanese
domination in waters extending westward to the continent of Asia and north to the Philippines.
Open arrows indicate threats to Japan's heartland from allied forces in the southwest Pacific un
der General MacArthur, in India and the Aleutians. Admiral Nimitz said after the Marshall
island attack that the United States was trying to reach China the quickest way and advised
that communiques be watched to see the path that would be taken. Black area is controlled by
Japan.
Lower Draft
Age Rejected
Washington, Reb. 21 (IP)
Flatly rejecting suggestions that
the draft age be lowered from
18 to 17, members of the house
military committee called today
for better utilization of existing
manpower resources before
considering any changes in the
selective service act.
As an alternative to dropping
the age to 17 should some new
action become necessary, Chair
man May (D., Ky.) said he be
lieved it would be better to
raise it "and take in some of
the non-fathers between 38 and
45 who are now classified as
over-age."
"It would be better to use
these men than to take fathers
in their late thirties," he de
clared. "No new legislation
would be necessary because
present law permits the induc
tion of men up to 45. The arm
ed services just are not taking
men over 38.
Both May and Rep. Harness of
Indiana, a high ranking republi
can member of the committee,
said they could see no reason to
drop the minimum induction
age below 18, as he has been
suggested recently in some
quarters.
"I don't think we should low
er the draft age or raise it,"
Harness said. "I do not believe
the manpower situation is bad
enough to warrant it. What we
need is better utilization of the
men we now have and a culling
out of the thousands of draft
age men of the government pay
roll." 4th Attack in
(Continued from pa(?e 11
Both the American and Im
perial operations were covered
by Typhoons, and one plane
was lost. This was the first an
nouncement that the Mosquito
units were in action as a part
of the RAF tactical arm.
Worst Defeat of War
Observers said that in all
probability the present attacks
represented the worst single de
feat of German air power since
the battle of Britain. Aside
from the destruction of nazi
planes and the pulverized pro
duction centers, they said the
campaign demonstrated how
thoroughly nazl defenses could
be saturated when the RAF and
the USAAF team at full strength
aeainst targets deep in Ger
many. The German air force was as
sumed to be desperately amass
ing a reserve against the allied
Invasion of western Europe. The
best opinion here held that a
few more blows like the current
series would condemn the luft
waffe to inferiority as disastrous
as that of the kaiser's air force
at the end of the first World
war.
24 Planes Lost
A United States communique
revealing German losses In the
biggest daylight air attack of
nil time disclosed also that only
24 American planes 21 bomb
ers and three fighters failed to
return from the broadside as
sault which also struck the Bal
tic port of Rostock.

sition to the bombardment cred

Day and Night
Against the massive allied as
sault by day and by night, the
Germans struck at London with
a force estimated at 50 to 60
planes a relatively puny effort
nevertheless shaping up as prob
ably their biggest fire raid on
the capital .since the 1940-41
blitz.
British Mosquito bombers
made a small-scale attache on
Munich simultaneously with the
night's main assault by four-en-gined
bombers on Stuttgart, one
of southern Germany's principal
industrial centers. Only 10
bombers were lost in the double
barrelled attack in contrast to
the record loss of 79 in a raid on
Leipzig only 24 hours earlier.

Cronin Has No
Faith in Japs
Portland, Feb. 21 (IP) Ray
mond P. Cronin, former Asso
ciated Press bureau chief in
Manila, who was interned in the
Philippines, would like to see
all Japanese deported after the
war.
"They have their islands out
there and let's put them back
on them every one of them,"
he told 2,500 persons here last
night. "I've never met a Jap
in any country in the world or
at any1 time when he wasn't a
Jap first, last and always."
Earlier he had said in an in
terview that the Yanks should
execute every member of the
Japanese military police when
they win the war.
The Japanese make military
police out of army incorrigibles,
he said, adding that "these gor
rillas recognize no authority
other than their own and even
the other Japanese fear and
hate them."
He predicted the Japanese
would treat captured Americans
better as the war approaches
their homeland.
No prisoners have been al
lowed to broadcast directly to
relatives in America, he said.
The messages are made up from
letters written home and broad
cast by an American traitor and
an English-speaking Russian
girl, he said.
Speak ing at the annual Ore
gon press conference in Eugene
Saturday, Cronin said it might
take 10 years to defeat the Ja
panese unless a mighty effort is
made at once to cut off their
vast captured resources of rub
ber, foodstuffs, copper and oil.

in charge ' of the carrier raid,
neutralized temporarily Japan's
biggest naval base outside home
waters and prevented the Japa
nese from sending reinforce
ments to Enlwetok.
Combat teams from the 22nd
marine regiments, swarming
ashore after a three day air
and naval bombardment liter
ally had levelled enemy defens
es, captured their initial major
objective. in Eniwetok atoll, En-
gebi island at the northern end,
in six hours and five minutes
Friday.
Hundreds of the defenders
were killed in the preliminary
bombardment, which included
1000 tons of aerial bombs. Rich
ard V. Johnston, United Press
war correspondent with the ii
vasion forces, said not a single
building was left standing and
even the "skeletons of the de
fenders were hammered down.'
"The island looked as though
it had been run over by a giant
lawn mower that sheared off
palm tops a few feet from the
ground," Johnston wrote.

hand and from that day on he had been
witching wells. He had located dozens
