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

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

into the background of yester

Wallace and Jones over the pro

Another republican, Michi

thought an investigation would
have "very interesting possibili

Though confidently predicting

in a luncheon at the Lord May

"survival and victory are well
within our grasp but hard and
plainful may be the process by
which we shall arrive at a satis

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. He added
that "in the whole first half ot
this year the enemy has dis
charged no more than 1500 tons
of bombs at a cost of 24S planes.

"Never was there such a case
of biter bitten" as in the boomer-

now mainly absorbed by their

an additional quota to the total

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

inary and discursive bombard
ments but they are already
speculating , , . where the blow

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.

in the historic hall where he was
honored with the "freedom of
the city of London" as tho climax
to a colorful parade through

A source close to the admin

velt "could not help" vetoing
the commodity credit measure If
congress sends it to him with
the subsidy bun Ini'ludrd. This
authority, declining use of his
mime, based his opinion on the
tirm stand the chief executive
has taken for subsidies as a part
of his "hnld-the-lme" program
against Inflation.

Turned out by a senate-house
conference committee last night
after nearly seven consecutive
hours of work, the measure con
tains virtually all of the anti-
subsidy provisions of each bill
but permits expenditures up to
$150,000,000 to finance present
methods of subsidizing Increased
transportation costs, production
of critical metals and output of

The restriction, designed to
end the subsidy-rollback on re

was written into a bill giving
