Washington, June 21 W
Admiral Ernest J. King, navy
commander - in - chief just re
turned from European confer
ences and an inspection of the
invasion coast, disclosed today
the commands and assignments
of eight U. S. task fleets.
At a news conference he
described the numerically de
signated units as task fleets
equipped to carry out any type
of operation.
He said that originally the
system of command called for
task units, then for larger task
groups, then task forces. The
task forces were combined to
form the numerical fleets, "or
"task fleets."
He announced the commands
and assignments of these eight
task fleets:
Pacific Third fleet, Admiral
William F. Halsey, Jr.; fifth
fleet, Admiral Raymond E.
Spruance; seventh fleet. Vice
Admiral. Thomas Kincaid, in
the southwest Pacific; ninth
fleet, Vice-Admiral Frank Jack
Fletcher, Aleutians.
Atlantic and European
Fourth fleet, Vice-Admiral Jo
nas Ingraham, south Atlantic;
eighth fleet, Vice-Admiral Hen
ry K, Hewitt, Mediterranean;
twelfth fleet, Admiral Harold
R. Stark, European waters;
tenth fleet, Admiral King, anti
submarine operations.
"They are all task forces,"
King said, "and vary in com
position according to the work
they have in hand."
House Kills Bill
For Women Air Pilots
Washington, June 21 T) Ig
noring a recommendation of a
high commanding general for
probably the first time during
the war, the house today killed
a bill that would have ab
sorbed the Wasps women pi
lots into the army air corps.
Three separate votes demon
strated the temper of the house
on the question after a bitter
debate over the value of wom
en pilots, and the need for add
ing them to the official army
rolls which other branches arc
cutting back their pilot training
programs.
The final rollcall vote was
189 to 169. Earlier, the bill was
killed on a division vote and
then on a teller count.
The absorption plan was rec
ommended by Gen. H. H. Ar
nold, chief of the ramy air
forces.
The cost of 312 feature

Court News
Canadians Shot
By Nazi Captors
London, June 21 & The
London Daily Mirror's war cor
responden said in a dispatch
from France today that 13
Canadian prisoners had been
lined up and shot by the Ger
mans in a French village now in
allied hands.
The correspondent, George
McCarthy, said the men had
died with the photographs of
"their loved ones their wives,
sweethearts or children"
clinched in their hands and
it was clear the Canadians had
"been lined up to die."
He said the bodies were dis
covered in the grounds of a
chateau in the village of Aud
rieu south of the Baleux-Caen
railway line.
"A French women who lived
In the chateau during the Ger
man occupation confirms the
news that the Canadians were
marched out and shot," he
wrote. "British troops who fol
lowed the Canadians into the
area heard of the shooting from
a Frenchman who testified that
altogether 25 prisoners of wpr
were shot by the Germans. No
trace has been found of the re
maining 12."
Wallace Pleads
Security Plan
Chungking, June 21 Ml A
general system of collective se
curity, backed if necessary by
an adequate international force,
was urged by President Chiang
Kai-Shek tonight at a brilliant
state banquet given by him and
Mrs. Chiang in honor of Vice
President Henry A. Wallace.
Assuring the visiting Ameri
can that China wishes to live
in good neighborliness, har
mony and peace with all na
tions, the generalissimo said:
"We respect the integrity
and independence of every na
tion. We dream no dreams of
domination. We have no terri
torial ambitions."
The Chinese believe, he said,
In an ever-increasing coopera
tion with other countries in
matters economic, financial,
cultural and political, "and in
the development of our in
dustry and our Immense na
tural resources we will' wel
come foreign investment and
foreign technicians."
Pending the inauguration of
collective security, which he
said could not be achieved un
less the military might of the
common enemies is totally an
nihilated, Chiang said the
United States, the British com
monwealth, the Soviet Union
and China "must shoulder the
responsibility of maintaining
international peace."

Hull Rebukes '
British Minister
Washington, June 21 Mt
America in the months preced
ing Pearl Harbor was following
"the tsingle policy of self-defense,"
Secretary of Slate Hull
declared in a sharp rebuttal to
what he termed an entirely er
roneous assertion by Britain's
production minister an asser
tion that brought a personal
apology to the house of com
mons today from its author.
The British minister, Capt.
Oliver Lyttleton, told the house
he had no intention of saying
in a speech yesterday that
American lend-lease aid to Bri
tain had forced Japan into at
tacking the United Stales.
Asserting any such statement
was "manifestly untrue," he
added that he was not com
plaining of being misquoted
and acknowledged that "any
misunderstanding is entirely
my own fault."
His appearance before com
mons came after Hull issued a
statement last night declaring
Lyttleton was "entirely in er
ror" in the remarks attributed
to him at a luncheon of the
American Chamber of Com
merce in London.
Lyttleton earlier released his
own version of the interpola
tion but it contained no refer
ence to this quotation ascribed
to him by two American re
porters at the luncheon: "It is
a travesty of history to say that
America was forced into the
war."

For Gl Joes

Extra pay for infantrymen and

today by the house military

ly, those not in combat an addi
tional $5 and members of glider
units the same 50 percent pay

senting the marine corps, said

out one arm of the service, the

other arms engaged in equally
hazardous jobs. To apply it to
the leathernecks, he added,
would "tpnd to destroy a sense
of .unity which is a valuable

TillamookPUD
Bonds Upheld
The Tillamook Peoples' Util

sue to acquire private utility
properties cannot be referred
to the people, the slate supreme
court ruled today in upholding
Circuit Judge R. Frank Peters
of Tillamook county.
Voters of the district gave
their approval in 1940 to the
bond issue. A year ago. the
district directors adopted an
ordinance providing for is
suance of the bonds in accord
ance with the measure approved
by the people.
Eighteen taxpayers then fil
ed a referendum to permit the
district voters to decide at the
November, 1944. general elec
tion whether they want the
bond issue, the sponsors of the
referendum seeking to have
the ordinance put on the bal
lot. The supreme court decision,
by Chief Justice Bailey, held
that the ordinance could not be
referred because it was admin
istrative in character, and not
legislative; and that the people
already had voted on the sub
ject four years ago.
