WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 (P)
The navy announced today that
American troops on Guadalcanal
island in the Solomons had ad
vanced their western flank well
into territory formerly held by
the Japanese.
A communique said that the
advance, made by army and
marine forces, had carried the
western peg of the American
-line to a point about five miles
' west of the vital airfield on
'' Guadalcanal and about one mile
west of the Matanikau river,
formerly the boundary of the
American position.
Minor Activity
Generally reflecting a new
Outburst of land activity on the
Island, following last week's
naval victories, the communique
also reported that American pa
trols had advanced an outpost
line on which flank was not
stated and about 35 Japanese
were killed while American
forces suffered few casualties.
, : The advance to the west was
made on November 18, the ad
vance of the outpost line was
on November 19, and on No
vember 21, which was yester
day, Guadalcanal time, ground
' forces were reported engaged
In "minor activity," but aircraft
carried out 11 attack missions
. against enemy Installations on
the island.

NEW YORK, Nov. 21 UP)
The German radio said today
that Marshal Rommel's Africa
corps had escaped entrapment
by the British 8th army and that
after receiving reinforcements of
guns and tanks is "deployed in
full fighting strength in thor
oughly prepared and strongly
fortified positions of consider
able depth."
This broadcast, did not specify
where Rommel had established
his positions, but the reference
to fortifications in depth might
have indicated the El Agheila
ared. "Detaching the axis forces
from allied troops unnoticed by
the- enemy may now be consid
ered successfully concluded,"
the radio said.
Injured According to word
received from Ashland, a man
giving his name as A. O. Roberts
of Klamath Falls, suffered ser
ious injuries when his car went
over an embankment on the Pa
cific highway Sunday near Ash
land. He is reported improving
in the valley city.

allied tanks and 18 armored cars
had been destroyed and a rail
road station seized east of Ta
barka, near the Algerian border.
Gabot Foothold
Another German report said
one fighting French column had
been thrown back to the Eunl-
sian frontier in the south while
others, near Bcja, 53 miles west
of Tunis, and Mejez El Dab. 30
miles west of Tunis, were
bombed as they marched to join
the main forces.
The Algiers radio said the
Germans were trying to set up
another foothold on the Gulf of
Gabes, in eastern Tunisia, but
that the French had repulsed a
new landing attempt and cap
tured some Germans in an en-
gagement northwest of the Port
of Gabes.
German reports, quoting V
lied sources in Spanish Morocco,
said the allies were in the area
of Hammamet, on the coast be
tween Gabes and Tunis, and that
a fighting French-American col
umn moving in from the south
had reached Foriana, on the
railway line to Souse, and Gafsa,
on the railroad to Sfax.
Struggle for Air
One allied vanguard was
placed only 23 miles southeast
of Tunis, five miles closer than
other forces closing around both
enemy strongholds.
The struggle for air suprem
acy apparently was unfolding as
one of the keys to Hitler's whole
fading grasp on North Africa.
The German-controlled Paris
radio said allied air forces again
blasted airfields last night inside
the axis-held areas. It also was
the source of a report of- more
German and Italian troops ar
riving In Tunisia. ,

signs of beginning to break up.
.
JTJONT believe that Germany
WON'T crack up. She did
before, and may again. Two
thousand years ago Tacitus, the
first educated and cultured ob
server of the Germans, noted
that the Teutonic tribes were
good fighters as long as they
were winning but didn't stand
up in the face of defeat.
ERMANY may crack up, but
the crack-up won't begin
until the German armies defi
nitely taste defeat.
The allied lob is to put the
taste of defeat into their mouths.
Until that task is accom
plished, they will go on fighting
efficiently.
TJOT and apparently FINAL
fighting for Buna is on in
New Guinea. The Americans
and the Australians are within a
few miles of the Buna beach
head, and today's dispatches say
the Japs show no signs of evac
uating it.
If they lose Buna, they will be
in a fair way to lose ALL of New
Guinea.

the brush," Peterkin said.
The sight of a prisoner on
the island is an oddity, Peterkin
stated, for "almost no prisoners
are taken by either side."
"When the Japs rush, they
yell in English, "Blood for the
emperor; come out, marines.
you're licked.' There seems to
be - a lot of American-educated
Japanese among the snipers.
They re always shouting in Eng
lish from the trees."
But the marines don't take
the Japs' word for it that the
leathernecks are licked, Peter
kin said. Instead, the devil dogs
have an easy job cleaning up
the Japs, and now' there is a
saying on Guadalcanal that "the
Japs -fight for their- lives, but
the marines fight for souvenirs."
Among the souvenirs taken
from Jap bodies were a number
of revolvers "made in Connec
ticut." (Connecticut m a n u facturers j
suggested, as a possible explan
ation, that if Japs killed on
Guadalcanal, previously had
been in the Philippines they
would have had a good chance
of capturing American pistols
there.)

Safety Council Says
Traffic Accidents
Showing Decrease
Accidents in Klamath Falls
have decreased from last year's
amount, a report from Sam
Ritchie, chairman of the traffic
safety council shows.
Fatalities thus far have de
creased from five during last
year to two this year. Accidents
reported this year number 648
as compared with 960 during the
same period last year. The
month of October showed better
than 50 per cent decrease in ac
cidents over the same month last
year.
Although the decrease is due
in part to the curtailed use of
automobiles, the council cautions
drivers and pedestrians to use
the greatest of care during win
ter weather conditions which In
crease driving hazards.
