RIVER
MILLWORK
' SPRAGUE RIVER A fire
that started near the ' heating
stove completely destroyed the
home of Mr. Albert McNair two
miles east of Sprague River
Thursday evening, December 11.
The farm house, which was a six
room structure, was one of the
largest homes on the reserva
tion and housed the McNair
family of eight members.
About 5 p. m. Mrs. McNair
and the children were working
in the kitchen, while Mr. Mc
Nair and the older boys had
gone out to milk. The door from
the kitchen to the front room
was evidently closed as the fire
had reached holocaust propor
tions before anything could be
saved. Mr. McNair upon hearing
the screams of the children, be
lieved that one of them was
hurt as he did not see the fire
until he got fairly close to the
house. He raced to the front
room door in an effort to get in
to save personal valuables. As
he opened the door flames
belched forth and nothing could
be saved.
It was the custom of the Mc
Nairs to put the youngest child
to bed about a half-hour earlier
than the time that this fire oc
curred. McNair stated that this
was the first time in weeks that
the baby was kept up and had
it been placed in its bedroom
in the front of the building at
the usual time a tragedy would
have probably occurred.
McNair had just built a new
milk house next to the residence.
It had been recently equipped
with a new separator and cooling
equipment. This room was de
stroyed with the house. For
tunately no wind was blowing
and the air was very damp.
This prevented the spreading of
the fire to the barn, poultry
house and several farm sheds.
The residence was partly cover
ed by insurance.
- Mr. McNair announces that he
will start the construction of a
new home immediately.
' KENO The Red Cross sewing
unit took a very bad slump in
attendance, due to bad weather
and sickness. However, three
faithful members carried on the
good work. They were Mrs.
Ben Kerns and Mrs. W. L. Frain
who met with Mrs. J. F. Pritch-
ard at her home. The next
meeting will be held on January
8, 1842. at 1 o'clock at the home
of Mrs. Oscar Grimes, and it is
hoped every lady in the con
munity will do her share of the
Red Cross sewing. Material may
be obtained from Mrs. Ben
Kerns or Mrs. Ross Putnam.

Disclosure of Jap Raids
In Hawaii Made Public
By FRANK TRE MAINE -
HONOLULU, T. H., Dec. 13
(UP) In addition to two deadly
attacks on the U. S. naval base
at Pearl harbor Sunday, scream
ing Japanese bombers followed
with a third attack Sunday and
with a fourth Monday morning,
it is possible to disclose today,
The attacks, which opened Ja
pan's surprise assault against the
United States in the Pacific,
killed 1S00 persons in Pearl har
bor and Honolulu including
Rear Admiral Isaac Campbell
Kidd, described as in command
of a battleship division of the
Pacific fleet. Fifteen hundred
others were wounded. Heavy
damage was done.
Censorship permits a cautious
description of the attack. A few
seconds after the first bombers
came over, with the red fireball
insignia of Japan on their wings,
defending Anti-aircraft batteries
sent up a heavy barrage.
Concentrated Attack
Within a few minutes heavy
clouds of black smoke began
rolling up from Pearl harbor, 14
miles from Honolulu.
Planes roared in over the har
bor, dropping bombs on navy
centers and ships. Torpedo
planes splashed their deadly
loads into the water.
, Other bombers concentrated
their attack on Hickam field
army air center, and still others
raided the army's Wheeler field
and Schofield barracks. .
One witness at Schofield bar
racks said "the bombs dropped
like haiL"
Meanwhile to the windward of
Oahu, the enemy was attacking
the army's Bellows field and the
naval air station at Kaneohe.
Watchers on the hilltops be
hind Honolulu could see other
planes attempting to bomb war
ships of the U. S. fleet offshore.
The ships replied with anti-air
craft fire.
' IS Bombs Drop
The Japanese planes attempt
ed to bomb a Dutch vessel which
was entering the port during the
attack, but the ship reached port
safely.
At least 13 bombs were drop
ped in Honolulu.
The latest civilian casualty toll
is 49 dead and more than 100
wounded.
The number of Japanese planes
shot down can not be revealed,
It has been reported without
confirmation that at least one
Japanese aircraft carrier and
four submarines were sunk in
the Honolulu action. '
' A witness at Pearl Harbor
said:
"It was just about 8 a. m.
Sunday when the first planes
were sighted over Pearl Harbor,
"The planes, with the rising
sun of Japan plainly visible on
their sleek fuselages, raided
Hickam field and the Ford island
naval air station.
Bombers Peel Off
"The first planes, flying 'aulte
low, swung over Pearl Harbor
and Hickam field. They were
only about 100 feet off the
ground.
"I could see torpedo planes
ana aive bombers in action, be
sides the low-level bombers.'
"The dive bombers peeled off
at great altitudes, one after the
other. They - came down in
groups of nine.
There were about 100 Dlanes
taking part in the entire raid."
Shortly after 8 a. m. Sunday
morning, radios began to crackle
with calls for all army. navy.
police, fire, civilian defense and
Red Cross personnel to report to
their stations immediately.
Admiral Husband R. Kimmel.
commander in chief of the U. S.
fleet, and Rear Admiral Claude
Bloch, commander of the Hono
lulu naval district. Issued a Joint
statement praising the response
to the call of duty by civilians,
the army, navy and marine corps.
Never So Proud
"It is truly great to be an
American," their statement said.
"Never have we been so proud
as when we saw Sunday's mag
nificent response to the call of
duty by civilian employes of the
government and contractor
firms whom we call our un-uni-formed
fighters and the offi
cers and men of the army, navy
and marine corps.
"Instances of valor are so
great in. number they are too
many to enumerate. The same
sort of selfless' courage was dis
played then that will win this
war."..
General Short declared mar
tial law Sunday night and named
himself military governor.
- Daytime life in Honolulu has
returned' practically to normal
except for. the presence of sol
diers on patrol. Barricades have
been built at strategic street cen
ters ' throughout the city and
some trenches have been dug.
Most businesses are operating
as usual, but close at 4:30 p. m
to allow civilians to reach their
homes before dark, when they
are ordered to remain off the
streets in the blackout.
' Food stores were closed Tues
day for inventory but reopened
Wednesday They were instruct
ed to sell only to their regu
lar customers and in normal
amounts. .

U. S. Pilot Who Sank Haruna
Pays For Bombing With Life
MANILA Dec. 13 (IP) A Florida-born
West Pointer, Capt,
Colin P. Kelly Jr., 26, who help
ed even the score which the Jap
anese ran up at Pearl harbor
when he planted three bombs on
the Japanese battleship Har
una, paid for the sinking of the
ship with his life.
One sentence in a communi
que issued by Lieut. Gen. Doug
las MacArthur, commander of
the Far Eastern army, paid post
humous tribute to the young
army flier:
"General MacArthur announc
ed with great sorrow the death
of Captain Colin P. Kelly Jr.,
who so distinguished himself by
scoring three direct hits on the
Japanese capital battleship Har
una, leaving her in flames and
in distress."
Just when and how Kelly died
was not stated but it is possible
that death came without his
knowing that the Haruna had
been mortally damaged. The war
department In Washington an
nounced that the 29,330-ton Har
una was sunk Wednesday, north
of Luzon.
Kelly was graduated from the
U. S. military academy in 1937
and became a captain on Sept.
S, 1940, after training in vari
ous flying and bombing schools.

S. F. Man-in-the-Street
Getting Used to War Now
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 13
(UP) This is today's man-In-the-street
In San Francisco:
He lives In a gay, crowded,
noisy, hard-drinking, polyglot
capital of the Pacific Coast.
His country got Into the war
last Sunday. He is getting used
to it. He thinks we'll win may
be in a year but it'll be tough.
For the first time the world
crisis dictates his plans for the
day. He wishes he'd bought new
tires for the car last month. He
cancelled his dentist date and
put off paying his club dues
until he sees what happens.
He wishes he knew what hap
pened In Honolulu and what the
fleet is doing. Ho wishes he
could tell a Japanese from a
Chinese.
It made him uncomfortable
when he saw a man in a bar with
a big cardboard sign: "Jap hunt-
in b licenses for sale here, upen
season all year round." He feels
sorry for the good Americans
up In Japtown and hopes the
boys in the bar won't get any
foolish Ideas. He's glad there
hasn't been any of that.
Sunday was a bad dream. He
was out Saturday night and was
Just beginning to rally around
when the radio started inose:
We interrupt this broadcast
He got to bed late again Sunday
night. . ' , i
He dldn t get much work done
Monday., After, dinner they
called a-blackout on him. He,
didn't know- what to do. He
turned out the lights until other
people began turning theirs on
again. The cops said it was prac
tice.. The army said there were
planes. He still doesn't know. He
went to bed late again.
They left Him alono the last
three nights and he got some
sleep andielt better.
The news was better Wednes
day, Thursday and today. Wo got
a couple of Jap battleships. His
nephew who works for Pan Am
erican at Midway Island was
safe.
He bought a flashlight and
some extra batteries but had to
fight a crowd at the drugstore
to get them. He tried to buy blue
cellophane to put over his auto
headlights, but , all the stores
were out of it. '
Some- random, telephone calls
to San Franciscans after the first
blackouts, gdt. these answers:
I Just turned off the llghU
filers to bo reported from the
Far Eastern front.
"The Kongo was last seen out
of control and wc aro suro seri
ously crippled," tho announce
ment said.
Lieut. Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur commended First Lieut.
Boyd D. Wagner, of the army air
corps, who "distinguished him
self by his daring attack on a
Japanese air detachment at
Aparri yesterdny morning."
"When attacked by five pur
suit planes," he said, "he shot
two planes out of the air and
machine-gunned 12 on the
ground, leaving five burning.
Wagner ended his terso report
by saying 'My gas was running
low so I returned homo'."
No Fire
The announcement said they
made "at least one hit and we
think two. The ship was definie
ly out of control and we are sure
she was seriously crippled.
"There was no fire when she
was last seen so she may have
been able to return to port."
Admiral Hart revealed that
the American navy had lost
three large planes since the
war started two during the
daylight raid on the Gulf of
Dnvno about an hour after the
Pearl harbor attack.
Air force casualties thus far
have been small, but there have
been "plenty of attacks on our
planes," he said.
and waited. What else could you
do?"
"We felt sort of funny, be
cause we're right near the
ocean."
"I remember the last war, but
this comes right to home."
"I was out walking my dog.
When the sirens started to wail,
he did too. He kept It up until
wc got back to tho house, then
he hid under the bed."
"My husband got up and put
all his camera equipment in the
darkroom at the back of the
house."
Clockwork Timing
Of Hawaii Patrol
Possible Mistake
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13 (P)
A theory that tho clock-work
regularity of the army's "dawn
patrol" may have contributed
unwittingly to the surprise of the
Japanese attack on Pearl harbor
was advanced Thursday by mili
tary men familiar with tho Pa
cific outpost,
One officer recalled that while
he was stationed in Hawaii, a
squadron of army patrol planes
would roar over his houso at the
same tlmo every morning and
return at the same time after
sweeping a certain distance out
to sea.
"You could set your watch by
those flights," he recalled.
That regularity, he explained,
may have been capitalized on by
the Japanese when they made
their daring aerial swoop on the
great naval base.
"It Is possible," he said, "that
the Japanese sent some of their
naval Intelligence officers Into
Hawaii where they got Jobs on
the sugar plantations from which
they could watch and tlmo the
dawn patrols every day.
"That would cnablo them or
any other expert observer, for
that matter to estimate pretty
accurately how far the patrols
extended over tho sea and with
that Information, they could de
termine how close to tho Islands
their aircraft carries could ap
proach to launch their attack
planes without danger of being
observed by the army patrols."
An ordinance prohibits "par
taking of refreshments" In the
clty-owned cemetery at Fort
Collins, Colo.
dlFOIJ STATE
SET TO GO
SACRAMENTO, Dec. 13 (UP)
Perhaps tho war with Japan
caught some state agencies nap
ping, as it did most everyone
else, but it wasn't long until a
coordinated state program was
underway.
The California state guard was
all s-t to move Into high gear
and quickly delegated men to
take over guarding of vital
bridges, railroads and highways.
It was Indicated this service
would be Increased as necessary,
particularly If more funds are
voted by tho legislature.
Tho state defense council
wasted no time In tackling the
problems of defending the state.
Governor Olson called It Into
session Monday and was Joined
Tuesday by Mayor La Guardla
of New York City, civilian de
fense administrator, and Mrs.
blcanor Roosevelt, wife of the
president.
The air raid alurms and black
outs up and down tho coast
Monduy night revealed many
shortcomings and Indicated
there is much educational work
to be done befuro the coordina
tion between military and civil
ian groups Is perfected.
Ono of the most vital re
sources In the state are the
forests, and forest fire lookout
stations were, manned, with ad
ditional stations available if
necessary. The state division of
forestry concentrated its 250
fire trucks around strategic
centers, such as San Diego, Sac
ramento, Los Angeles, San Fran
cisco and other defrnso points,
where they could supplement
regular fire and pollco depart
ments. The capitol Itself presented
certain problems which are be
ing remedied as rapidly as pos
sible. Attempts to have a com
plete blackout on tho first air
raid alarm revealed Hint the
huge 14-foot windows In most
of tho offices needed blacking
out. Particularly the offices of the
press associations, telephone
building, bureau of criminal
identification and highway pa
trol the lights Inside had to
keep burning and the ordinary
shades failed to keep the light
Inside. Light tight coverings
were manufactured hastily.
All state buildings were
placed under 24 hour doublo
guard, with all doors locked
after 6 p. m. and passes required
for entrance, with a sign-In and
sign-out book used. No chances
were being taken on damaging
the scat of the state's govern
ment. The highway patrol and di
vision of highways issued warn
ings for motorists to stay at
homo nights except on emerg
ency driving. Diversion of traffic
was mapped out for emergencies,
particularly In areas where mili
tary movements were important.
Tho stato controller announced
ho was holding up payment of
claims to Japanese except salary
payments, upon the advice of
tho U. S. district attorney and
secret service. Undoubtedly
thcro will be other stops taken
against Japanese by state agen
cies, excepting, of course the
American citizens of Japanese
descent who are stato employes.
