PAGE TWO II. S. TROOPS (Continued From Page One) against Rendova may have been of a screening of diversionary nature to obscure more import ant thrusts elsewhere. Still another possibility is that the high command might be test' ing the extent of Japanese will to resist in the Solomons area. The Japanese fought furiously and lost heavily in their efforts to recapture Guadalcanal. Any American advance which forced them to undertake similar defen sive and costly action would be profitable from the American point of view. Beeond Adrance This is the second advance in the Solomons chain since Ameri can troops went into Guadalcan al last August 7. About the time the conquest of Guadalcanal in the southeastern Solomons was completed on February 9 of this year, American forces occupied without opposition the Russell islands lying 60 miles northwest of Guadalcanal airfield. Malic. Mis-itatements The third move, into Rendova island, carries the front line of American strength In the South Pacific into the zone of Japanese domination and 110 nautical miles northwest of the previous position in the Russells. The last previous American advance against Japan was be gun on May 11 when United States army forces moved into Attu island at the western tip of the Aleutians chain in the North Pacific. Attu was mopped up in three weeks of constant fighting under conditions of terrible cold snow, and fog. Prior to the Attu campaign the navy had announ ced the occupations of Funafuti in the Ellice islands in the South Central Pacific. Rendova has figured only once before in navy communiques. Last March a war bulletin re ported that on March 27 Ameri can planes had bombed and strafed Japanese positions at Ugali on the northeast coast of Rendova, destroying one build- wig and setting another afire This was the only public in- lormauon available here today TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY FOB THE BETTER grades of fuel oils, accurate, metered de liveries, try Fred H.

IKE LANDING RENDOVA "' - u ' Jm as to tha enemy installations on tha island. The fact that the landing was made in early morning indicat ed that American forces had ap aproched the wooded volcanic and mountainous island under cover of darkness with the ob jective of attacking with com plete surprise and there was some belief in authoritative quarters here that this surprise had been effective. The actual time of the attack while it occurred on today's date I in terms of Solomon islands time was estimated by navy men to have been taking place when it was about noon yesterday in Washington. Rendova island, which extends for about 20 miles in a north south direction, lies south of the western end of New Georgia is land, which is the large island of the Central Solomons. Rendova is entirely mountainous and rises to a height of 3488 feet. At the summit of the peak is an extinct volcanic crater. The island has a lagoon off its northwestern side but the lagoon is shallow and marked with sev eral reefs so that it is not too useful. The lack of a good har bor plus the mountainous char acter of the terrain indicated that the island would be very limited in its direct military use fulness and supplies one of the authoritie. here Hn hi objective of greater importance was involved in tha operation.

He did not mention the instances, but termed them "trivial as compared with the big things of life." . Democratic senators generally adopted a hands-off attitude in the Jones-Wallace dispute.

Another republican, Michi gan s Senator Ferguson, said he thought an investigation would have "very interesting possibili ties." The democratic chairmen of committees which might be called on to make such an in quiry, as was invited by Jones, were in no apparent rush how ever, to demand priorities on it.

Detailing tnc tremendous air punishment heaped upon Ger many, Churchill in his Guildhall speech disclosed the RAF alone in the first six months of this year has dropped 52,500 tons of bombs on Germany.

OREGON had reached a stage where the output of new ships "is some where between seven and 10 times as much as our losses from enemy action in June." The prime minister said that sinco the middle of May scarcely a single merchant ship had been sunk in the whole of the North Atlantic. - Referring to the coining at tack in the Mediterranean, he said that so far as the Italians are concerned "they have only been subjected to the prelim inary and discursive bombard ments but they are already speculating , , . where the blow will fall. Axis Anxiety "It is no part of our interest to relieve that anxiety." Churchill expressed the opin - ion that axis worry over allied plans "may have led to the re markable long delay of opening the promised German offensive against Russia." He said he al so did not propose to relieve that worry. The prime minister, speaking in the historic hall where he was honored with the "freedom of the city of London" as tho climax to a colorful parade through crowded streets, reiterated: "We and the United Nations demand from the nazis and fascists and Japanese tryants un conditional surrender.
