AP BOMBERS
START FIRES
li
By RUSSELL BRINES
. MANILA, Dec. 11 (Jap
anese four-motored bombers
smashed at military objectives
and shipping moored In the har
bor Wednesday In a prolonged
assault on the Manila area that
started huge fires at Cavita naval
base and sent columns of smoke
spiraling up from Nichols air
depot.
' American interceptor planes
and Japanese dive-bombers
fought a brisk battle over Nich
ols iield and one plane was be
lieved to have been hit.
. I watched the entire attack
from a beach house li miles
from Nichols. Hundreds of other
persons along the beachfront
huddled against fences and be
neath trees during the four
separate afternoon attacks.
. :From where I stood, nine miles
" directly across the bay from Ca
'f'vite, flames roaring high in the
air could be seen at the end of
.-the raid. Smoke also rose trom
- a smaller fire at Cavite an hour
, after the assault. Another Cavite
fire apparently was extinguish
ed. Black smoke hovered over
Nichols field.
Hornet's Nest
tr -After first circling the city in
i two formations of 27 planes each
the Japanese returned seaward,
then split up for the assaults.
High in the clouds above the bay
at least six dive-bombers peeled
off from the main units and
roared swiftly toward Nichols,
.-The bomb blasts shook my
house. .
The attack stirred alive a gi
gantic hornets' nest as American
.interceptors which had droned
"over the air base throughout the
morning went Into action. After
i their swoop onto the field the
"bombers climbed high and split
ud. Individual dog-fights devel
oped, with the Americans trying
- to get onto the tail of the Jap
anese planes.
The fighting could De seen
through scattered clouds directly
over my head. Anti-aircraft guns
cracked throughout the city and
the machine-guns of the combat
ant planes rattled Incessantly,
The fight lasted at least 15
minutes. One plane emitted
light stream of smoke from its
motors and disappeared inland
Some witnesses reported that it
had glided toward McKinley
field, after which a high burst
fxt smoke was seen. Another
plane slanted seaward beyond
' Cavite, straightened near the
water, then disappeared over the
horizon. The fight ended when
the fast bombers climbed high
and headed seaward with the
Americans following.
Heavy Gunfire
Meanwhile, smoke began spir
aling up from Nichols field. This
attack started about 12:40 and
ended at 1 p. m.
S Heavy gunfire ceased momen
-tarily then burst out again at
planes hidden in the clouds off
Cavite. As a second wave of
bombers came on the smoke
rings of anti-aircraft shells
puffed out far below them.
The planes dropped 40 bombs
at columns of merchant vessels,
sending up high waterspouts.

Highway Blackout Order
Official Regulations for Control of Vehicular
Traffic During Precautionary Blackouts
Highway traffic within city limits will bo restricted to emer
gency vehicles such as fire, police and ambulance; commercial
vehicles engaged in essential service such as milk trucks, news
paper delivery trucks, mail trucks and the regular transport
freight services; and such private cars as those of physicians on
emergency call and those required for transporting workers to
and from employment. Metropolitan areas nmy take further pre
cautions if considered advisable by local police authorities.
Highway traffic outside city limits will be subject to the re
strictions noted above without exception.
Pending issuance of permits for operation during precaution
ary blackout periods, employers should furnish credentials to
drivers of commercial vehicles and private cars which come un
der the permitted classifications.
For city driving, it is directed that as soon as possible after
receipt of this order, all motor vehicles permitted to operate
must be equipped with dark oilcloth or rubber masks or hoods
attached securely to headlights, with a horizontal slit in the lower
portion about Hi-inch by 3 inches, covered Inside with not less
than two thicknesses of blue cellophane or one coat of blue
lacquer paint.
License lights must be blacked out with an opaque covering.
Tail lights must be hooded with an opaque material, leaving
an aperture at the bottom not more than U-inch in diameter.
Side and clearance lights on trucks must be extinguished or
completely hooded.
Use of fog or spot lights with or without covering is pro
hibited. For operating on the open highways, beyond the corporate
limits of cities, removal of the lower one-half of the hood will
be permitted for the time being, provided the unhooded section
is covered by at least two thicknesses of blue cellophane or one
coat of blue lacquer paint.
In an amergency blackout during an air raid alert all vehicu
lar traffic on all roads and highway! must cease, except for
emergency, fire, police and first aid cars. All motor vehicles must
proceed to the curb and all lights must be extinguished.
Official: December 10, 1941.
CHARLES P. PRAY, JERROLD OWEN.
Superintendent of State Police. State Defense Coordinator.
The above regulations, released through the local defense
coordinator's office, are for precautionary blackout periods ONLY.
Tbey do not apply until public
a period Is In existence.
Columns of dirt and smoke also
shot into the air from the di
rection of Cavite and flames
roared up, apparently from an
oil tank fire. Several bombs fell
into the water off Cavite.
A third flight of nine bomb
ers attacked some 15 minutes
after the first assaults. Flying
in close V formation they ap
peared over Cavite, apparently
safe from anti-aircraft shells
bursting below them.
The attackers dropped a clus
ter of bombs, sending up two
new smoke plumes from Cavite,
swung toward the merchantmen
and dropped another salvo, then
bombed the Fort McKinley area
and sped back out to sea.
This attack was followed by a
fourth In which eight planes in
close formation dropped some
30 bombs on Cavite.

announcement is made that such
SPOKANE, Dec. 11 (J) -Trachoma,
ar eye disease pre
valent among Indians of the
northwest, is being attacked with
some success through use of sul
fadiazine, an Indian service re
port disclosed today.
Clinics were operated late this
year at Warm Springs, Umatilla
and Chemawa, Ore., and Fort
Hall, Idaho, under Dr. Polk Rich
ards, national director of Tra
choma work, assisted by Dr. R.
S. Lloyd, special Indian service
physician.
Dr. Richards said the sulfa
diazine was proving more ef
fective and less unpleasant than
sulfanilamide, used earlier.
The disease, he said, was char
acterized by inflammation and
granular lids and was extremely
painful. Until recently surgery
was used in treatment. With
sulfadiazine, the drug is admin
istered in pill form and the pa
tient hospitalized for 72 days for
observation.
At Umatilla, Dr. Richards said,
429 cases were treated of which
168 showed definite indications
of trachoma. Eighteen of these
had improved vision at the end
of the treatment. At Chemawa,
Dr. Lloyd reported 529 patients
with 153 having symptoms or
positive trachoma. Immediate
improvement in the vision of 30
was noted.
The report said Dr. Richards
was believed the first physician
using sulfadiazine in treatment
of the disease.

To buy "her" a gift she'll
love you should go to
the store where she prefers
to buy herself ... So that's
why I'm suggesting here that
you be sure to drop in at
Long's when you're looking
for something for your
mother, wife, daughter, or
good friend!
Long's anticipated Christ
mas 1941 as the biggest in
years, and bought according
ly .. . You'll find numerous
gifts in exquisite taste, and
yet inexpensively priced . . .
From Lingerie and leisure
robes to handkerchiefs, cos
tume Jewelry, hosiery and
many lovely novelty gift
items.
Several different organiza
tions have profited by the
experience of other groups
during the last couple of
years . . . And have held
their dinner dances at Cal
Ore recently . . . The only
thing wrong that I can see
is that I didn't get to go to
any of them!
In fact, the chairman of
the dinner-dance committee
of one club telephoned me
to find out whom to call for
details and I tried to hint
politely that special guests
would enjoy it, too . . . But
I guess I was too polite.
The best gift you could
give anyone who has Vene
tian blinds is a way to dust
them easily! And you'll bo
blessed for your thoughtful
ness. At F. R. Haugcr'g Janitor
supply department . . . 515
Market St. . . . You'll find
a special Venetian blind
duster . . . It's tilted Just
right . . . And made of os
trich feathers . . . For $1.25.
And for the man who
washes his own car ... A
huge imported English
chamois skin that will last
for years!
Incidentally, F. R. Haugcr
has every kind of household
cleaning help for housewives.

Refugees from over run
Europe smuggled out dia
monds when they found that
their money would be taken
away at inspection points . . .
And in the United States,
the money from the sale of
the diamonds keeps them
from becoming public
charges.
So there's a little lesson
in investments . . . Because
almost nothing under the sun
has a re-sale value like a
diamond . . . Although few
people think of that when
they are selecting a lovely
diamond ring of the kind you
will find at Rickys Credit

you put on the wail where
It doesn't need table or floor

There's a lesson to bo
learned there ... If wo take
the advice of economists and
buy normnlly, we'll bo bettor
off than if we wait . . . When
things get scarce, prices arn
sure to rise . . . So, since

why not enjoy It as usual?
