The government is seeking 15,000,000.000 n the Third War loan. "I know we aro taking on an Immense job," said General Chairman Hall. "It will take the solid support of the entire com munity to put it over. But Klam ath has a way of coming through, and it will come through again. The Elks feel honored that they were asked to take the lead in this huge patriotic undertaking. We will do our best, and we ask every citizen to give us his help."

The communique told of American jungle troops in the Solomons going after pockets of enemy resistance Thursday on atolls and islets only a mile or so west of the Munda air field - on New Georgia which was wrested from the Japanese August 5. On August 15, the Americans occupied Vella La vella island, 45 miles northwest Of Munda; and the communique announcing Its capture point edly explained that the Japa nese sea supply line to both New Georgia and Kolombanga ra had been severed. Despite, that,- the Japanese have remained on small isles near Munda, even shelling the field, making necessary the liquidation campaign which to day's communique disclosed. They also are hanging on at Bairoko harbor. The communi que indicated they are continu ing efforts to sneak in supplies at night to the imperilled gar rison there, reporting that PT boats dispersed barges Thurs day in the north New Georgia vicinity. Sensing the peril posed by American occupation of Vella Lavella, the Japanese tried to land a counter-invasion force by destroyer-escorted barges early Wednesday but were re pulsed. Hull Arrival at War Talk Points Up Political Angle (Continued from Page One) erations against Japan as well as German-occupied Europe were in the making. Speculation continued that Eden might make a trip to Mos cow, and it was evident that Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin was being advised of the progress of the Quebec conference, as he has been of the course of the Roose velt-Churchill meetings In the past.

Hawkes (R-NJ) as chairman of the board of direc tors, said a check of workers homes Indicated that eight per sons were missing but other sources indicated the toll might rise much higher.

Whatever may b Its other shortcomings, censorship is ful ly justified in keeping the cur tains pulled tight at these big gatherings of tha leaders. BR EN DEN BRACKEN, British ...U1UK( M IIUWHllUWl (head censor), pulls the curtain aside slightly (very slightly) to day to announce that our plans are to "bomb and burn and ruthlessly destroy, In every way available to us, the people re sponsible for creating this war." He speaks of our "death-dealing sea and sky fleets." When he say a that, he's TALKING TO THE ENEMY, seeking to shake nerves. To US, ha says: "The war is going very well indeed, but will last long and ba hard." He's telling us not to let down in our efforts. " (We on the home front have to be "handled," you know.) DOTH Eden and Hull are either at Quebec or are going to be, indicating political aa well as military planning, It is suggested, although not flatly stated, that Stalin is being kept informed as to the progress of the planning. There arc hints (or maybe guesses) that Eden will return by way of Moscow in order to take the newt to Stalin personally. a a AS to all these hint and ru mors and suggestions of something big impending just about ready to be touched off, remember how long this sort of talk preceded our Invasion of Sicily.
