ly reported to have thundered
. Into action against enemy force
on Guadalcanal island in the
lower Solomons.
Secretary of the Navy Knox
told newsmen he believed '"the
Japanese have by no means
yet exercised their maximum
force in the Solomons cam
paign.
Japs Bombarded
The navy in Washington dis
closed that heavy United States
naval units, boldly challenging a
powerful Japanese sea armada,
suddenly reappeared in the
Guadalcanal battle theater Octo
ber 17 and effectively bombard
, ed Japanese positions on the
northwest section of the island.
Big fires were left raging and
i ammunition dumps were explod
ed, the navy said, and through
out the same day American war-
planes blasted at the enemy's is
land foothold.
Ho Reinforcement
With their mission achieved.
. the U. S. naval force evidently
i withdrew without making con
. tact with enemy warships, for
the navy reported that Japanese
ships retaliating for the bom
bardment shelled U. S. installa
tions on the northern coast of
Guadalcanal some hours later.
The navy said, however, that
no Japanese attempt to reinforce
their troops had been observed
since October IS.
Japs Warned
American domination of the
skies was Indira ted by the fact
that American warships shelled
the enemy positions in broad
daylight, while the Japanese
naval forces struck under cover
of darkness, apparently fearing
to venture out by day against
V. S. planes based on the island.
In Tokyo, Japan's foreign of
' flee spokesman, Tomakazn Hori,
told the nation in a broadcast
that the Pacific conflict was
gradually assuming the phase of
a long-term war and warned of a
possible general counter-attack
by the United States against Jap
an. .
There , was still no indication
of a showdown battle between
United States and Japanese war
ships in the Solomons. And for
the moment at least both sides
were apparently restricting their
activities to hit-and-run assault
without risking a major engage
ment on which the fata of the en
tire southwest Pacific campaign
might hinge.

Tuesday.
CAMP JUi TRIP
Robert Farrell, Jr.. candidate
for secretary of state, was in
Klamath county Tuesday wind
ing up his eastern Oregon cam
paign trip.
Farrell said that campaigning
in these times is limited by the
transportation situation, and for
that reason he was not able to
reach as many places as he had
hoped. He has been traveling
entirely by bus and rail.
The candidate said he was
warmly pleased by the recep
tion be had received at each
place and the interest shown in
his candidacy.
I am concerned over the
general belief that there will be
light vote," said Farrell. "I
want to urge all citizens to exer
cise their franchise on election
day."
Farrell will leave for Portland
by train tonight. He is a Mult
nomah, county attorney and at
present is speaker of the lower
house in the legislature.

TEEN AGE DRAFT
(Continued from Page One)
Senator Lee (D-Okla.) announced
he would demand a record vota-j
on an amendment to ban the
sale of intoxicants and to
force anti-vice regulations
en-
on
and near military posts.
Lee told reporters he believed
that if he could obtain a roll call
vote the amendment would be
adopted, a result conceded likely
by several senators who have
opposed any revision of the mea
sure as approved by their mili
tary committee.
The house bill would allow
high school and college students
to finish their academic year, a
provision several senators said
might be written into the senate
measure. As the latter stood,
only high school students would
be deferred and then only when
called up during the last half of
the school year.

Geared to produce new rev

000 by congressional committees,
the new bill would boost col
lections of direct taxes close to
$23,000,000,000 yearly. In addi
tion, about $1,730,000,000 would
be taken from taxpayers and re
turned to them in the form of
current credits for debt pay

Imposition of the victory im

would make about 43.000.000
persons subject to direct federal
taxation, as compared with the
previous high water mark of 24.-

Corporation Taxes
The normal income tax rates
on individuals would be in
creased from 4 to 6 per cent and
the present surtax schedule of
6 to. 77 per cent raised to ranee
from 13 to 82 per cent, the max

to $300 for single persons.
$1300 to $1200 for married cou

Corporations would feel the
weight of a 9 per cent increase,
from 31 to 40 per cent, in their
taxes on normal and surtax in

profits boosted from a graduated
scale of 33 to 60 per cent to a

Bonneville power.
Discounts Age
Pierce discussed his age, 81
years. He claimed he is able to
be at his post every day for a
full working day. and mention
ed Senator Norris of Nebraska
and Carter Glass of Virginia, as
indications that "in times o(
greatest crisis, people seem to
realize that old hands are best."
Pierce said at both the Fre
mont gathering, and at a meet
ing sponsored by the League of
Women Voters, that he thinks a
"negotiated peace" is a great
danger confronting the nation.
He said he believes that if Ger
many should fall, Japan would)
seek some form of peace and!
would again start a subtle pro-!
gram aimed at the welfare of
the United States. i
Our only chance for survival
is to press every advantage, and j
continue the fight through to!
victory," asserted Pierce. !
Regarding farm problems.
Pierce asserted the "parity fight"
was simply an effort to keen:
farmers producing food with1
some assurance they could real- !
ize the cost of production. He
said government heads have
promised that key men will be
left on the farms for produc
tion of essential crops.
Pierce was introduced by A.
M. Thomas. Jack Benner made
a talk for Walter Whit beck,
democratic candidate for con
gress; W. A. Delzell spoke for
Lew Wallace, nominee for gov
ernor, and Clarence Hyde, nom
inee for labor commissioner,
spoke in his own behalf.

vast quantities of labor for the

there is no visible evidence of
