Oklahoma ana there are ships among them which the Japanese sank two years ago today and which wc have raised and refitted for bat tit. They sail for revenge. When the carrier-borne Jap bombers drew away from Pearl Harbor Dec 7, 1941, the Amer ican problem was one of repair nd replacement of torpedoeti and bombed warships, of re building installations, of getting new fiphting planes to take the place of Hickam's chared fusi lages.

A wedge has been i driven into the central Pacific and Admiral Chester W. Nimitr Is looking to extend his holdings i farther north into the Marshall: and Carolines. I Nimitt has Instructed his off I- ten that if they encounter the Jap fleet or any part of it, they are to drop pre-arranged tasks ' and destroy every enemy vessel j possible. j China Key To Victory i A Pacific victory, officers say ; cannot be envisioned without i occupation or domination by air , and sea of the Marshal!, Caro lines, Truk and the Philippines but many lesser islands will- be by-passed and they are expected , Actor At Tarawa TO ODT POST San Francisco.
