The broadcast, beamed for Japanese communities In East Asia, said, without giving the authority, that it was "disclosed" that the Hornet "brought the North American bombers dur ing the attack on Japan." The broadcast was reported by gov ernment monitors to the office of war information. The sinking of the Hornet was "revenge for the raid," the Tok yo radio said, adding -that "our imperial air units have been con centrating on this ship."

Gen.) James H. Doolittle, rankles the Japanese, OWI said. The broadcast said the date of April 18 "can never be forgotten by the 100,000,000 Japanese people.
