, By Mae R. Johnion
United Press Correspondent.
Poarl Harbor, Dec. 7 uJ.PJ
Pacific fleet task forces putting
to tea from Pearl Harbor steam j
past the lorpedo-b'.astcd hulk of
tht U. S. S. 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.
Fleet Has Grown
A new problem arose late this
summer. Taxed to capacity by
new warships. Pearl Harbor Just
wasn't big enough to hold ca;
riers, cruisers, destroyers, sub
marines and auxiliaries coming
from the mainland.
On the second anniversary of
. the attack a "military success"
under a diplomatic umbrella
the United Slates has laid its
stepping stones to Tokyo and
already has commenced setting
Its feet down upon them. Naval
' authorities make no secret of
the fact that Tarawa and Makin
axe the forerunners of more im
portant battles.
Veteran Pacific correspondents
Ilka Frank Tremaine and Wil
liam Tyree, who covered the
Pearl Harbor disaster and no
are out -with the troops and the
fleet believe that two-filths oi
the war against Japan has been
fought that Dec 7. 1948. will
find American troops In the Jap
anese capital.
No Celebrsilon
Naval officers don't want any
"Pearl Harbor Day" celebra
tions. They will remember it
as long as they live, but with-
out fanfare. One officer suggest- :
ed that when the war is over
congress set aside Dec. 7 annu
ally to "examine the sUta of the
nation's defense, interrogate our
naval and military leaders and
study our relations witli other
nations. '
On this anniversary, no inves
tigations are needed. Rabaul sits
precariously at the dagger tip of 1
offensives pointing from Finsch- I
haven. New Guinea, and Bou- ,
galnville. 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 ,
