ON PACIFIC COAST HAVE DUAL GOAL Diversion of Naval Units From Combat Duty And Shipping Disruption Aim. By John M. Hightower Washington, Dec. 28. OP) The raiding Japanese subma rines in the Pacific are out to accomplish what German U boats failed to off the Atlantic coast in 1918. In both campaigns the two main objectives are the same diversion of naval units from combat duty with the fleet for strictly defensive patrol opera tions in home waters, and the disruption of American ship ping. Although the Japanese are not considered by naval men to be In the same class with the grimly efficient U-boat veterans of World War I, and although their submarines must operate over vastly greater distances, they were conceded two advan tages the Germans lacked. Have Large Fleet Japan is believed to have a much larger fleet of long range submarines, with about 40 cap able of operating off the Pa cific coast, and her raiders are not menaced close to their home bases by the deadly type of anti-submarine warfare which the allied navies were able to wage In the North sea during 1917-1918. It may have been one of these long range subs which, the army disclosed yesterday, had been blasted Into "debris" off California by an army bomber. Also, Secretary of the Navy Knox announced Sunday that at least 14 enemy submarines had been "probably sunk or damaged" in the Atlantic and several "effectively dealt with" in the Pacific. The current renewal of sub marine warfare in American waters is expected to follow the general pattern of the last con flict, and the world war exper ience of the Atlantic coast gives the Pacific coast some idea of what to expect. Nails Planted Mines During one six-month period in 1918, the Germans sent six huge cruiser type U-boats into American waters. They planted mines at the entrance to New York harbor, cut communica tions cables to Europe end South America, attacked coastal shipping with gunfire and tor pedoes and, according to naval records, sank 170,000 tons of merchant or war craft. . Imposing as this record sounds, the U-boats did not achieve their objective. The World war secretary of the navy, Josephus Daniels, set down the verdict in a book some years later. "In their chief mission of preventing transportation to Eu- JANUARY CLEARANCE CROUP I 140 Pair Were $4.95 to $8.50 Now $1.95 CROUP IV 265 Pair Selby & Moulton Bartley Suede, Kid & Calf Shoes $4.95 No Charges rope, the U-boats failed utter ly," he wrote. "The flow of troops and munitions to France and England was not for a mo ment interrupted. In fact it was precisely in this period that it was increased and we trans ported to Europe over 300,000 soldiers month." Bearcats Return to Coast; Eating When Japs Launch Attack Salem, Dec 28. Wil lamette university's Sl-member football party, stranded In Hon olulu when the Japanese attack ed Pearl harbor, was due back in Salem late today. The party landed In San Francisco . yesterday afternoon. coming in steerage in a troop ship, with the players attend ing wounded soldiers and sail ors on the ship. In a telephone conversation last night, Coach Roy S. Keene. at Davis, Cal., told Ron Gem mell, sports editor of the Salem Oregon Statesman: "When the bombing began In Honolulu we were all eating breakfast at the hotel. We saw water splashing in the harbor and asked a waiter what it was. " 'It's a whale spouting,' the waiter said. "We all trooped out to watch it, treating it as a joke. We did not know until later in the aft ernoon what had happened. 'The football boys were put on guard duty, guarding equip ment, and the women went to the hospital for duty."

"The Finest of Shoes at The Lowest Possible Prices" CROUP III 210 Pair Mostly Dress Shoes Now $3.95 Lantis & Johnston MAIN & CENTRAL No Returns No Exchanges BETTER WRAPPING AIDS POST OFFICE E No Christmas packages ar rived at Medford postoffice this year that could not be delivered because of insecure wrapping which resulted in loss of the ad dress. Postmaster Frank De Souza said today. Usually at least one such package arrives and the good fortune this year was attributed by the postmas ter to full cooperation of the public in preparing parcels properly for mailing. There were some parcels that had not yet been delivered be cause they did not contain suf ficiently complete addresses and therefore had to be set aside until the rush was over, Mr. DeSouza said, adding that they would be checked Immediately for correct addresses. So far as Christmas greeting correspondence was concerned, the postoffice did not have such good luck. The usual hundreds of greetings arrived without sufficient address and many of these that came third class (cent and a half stamp) will eventual ly have to be destroyed because they are not entitled to direct ory service, Mr. DeSouza ex plained. Carriers will look over all the undelivered third class mail, however, in an effort to make delivery but it is against regulations to assign a clerk to the Job of checking the mail with city directories in an ef fort to find the addresses, a service given first class mall, the postmaster said. There are also hundreds of first class Yule greetings that must be checked for complete addresses, h e added. Because of congestion else where, the postoffice expects to receive Christmas parcels over the next few days and these will be delivered as quickly as possible, Mr. DeSouza saldj BORDWELL.
