Too damned close."
Col. Doney said patrol plane
went up early this morning and
a combined surface and air
earch for the submarine was
being pressed today.
Came From Sub
Col. Doney said it was known
definitely the shells came from
submersible but that it was
impossible to tell what kind of
sub from the fragments un
earthed so far. From the sounds
they created the colonel de
scribed the. shells as of "high
Telocity and flat trajectory."
The attack found the military
reservation on the alert but
many of the soldiers not on duty
admitted ruefully they had slept
through the shelling.
Answer
Most' observers here believe
the purpose of the shelling was
an answer to Secretary of War
Stimson's statement after Mid
way that the possibility of attack
on the west coast had become
more remote.
Grinning Oregon beach resi
dents were unmistakably pleased
today they bad been attacked
by the enemy.
The thuds of cannonading
awakened scores in this resort
town. Residents flocked to the
turnpike to watch the flashes, of
gunfire to the north, but did not
realize that the Oregon coast was
under enemy attack for the first
time.

LIFTING OF LOGGING
RESTRICTIONS EYED
SALEM. June 22 yP Don
ald M. Nelson, chairman of the
war production board, asked
Governor Charles A. Sprague
today to review "existing legis
lation and practices In your
state which may in any way
restrict log and lumber produc
tion."
Nelson asked for prompt
consideration, because the next
few ffiohihs are "critical ones
in lumber output for the war
program.
Restrictions which Nelson
cited include the practice of keep
ing logging trucks off highways
on Sundays, overloading, penal
ties wnicn toroia tne use oi tne
truck for several days, and re
strictions on the use of some
logging equipment.
"W i t h changed conditions,
such as less Sunday driving and
war-time needs, it may well be
that many former restrictions
affecting logging and lumber
production can be modified or
withdrawn in the interest of
the war program without affect
ing public health and safety ad
