today that Germany is trying to
obtain the release of its North
African armistice commission
captured by American troops
last November by making the
exchange of American diplomats
held in France contingent upon

an agreement to exchange the
American group in France for

SAY NIPPONESE
NEW YORK. Jan. 13 (JP) A
Japanese broadcast asserted to
day that the United States air
craft carrier Hornet, identified
Monday by the American navy
as the aircraft carrier sunk Oc
tober 26 in the battle of the San
ta Cruz islands, was the vessel
which carried the planes that
raided Tokyo last April 18.
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."
OWI commented that Tokyo
in this way sought to exploit the
Washington announcement of
the Hornet's end.
Tokyo also gave some indica
tion f how deeply the Tokyo at
tack led by Brig. Gen. (now
Maj. 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. "
