VICTORIES REGISTERED AS MEMORIAL DAY IS CELEBRATED With civilians paying tribute to the memory of their soldier dead Sunday, May 30, soldiers, sailors and marines engaged in the present war were pounding the enemy on practically every front in the world. American soldiers, assisted by the navy, wip ed out the last remnant of Japanese troops on Attu island in the Aleutians, representing the first territory taken back by the United States from the Japanese. The Japanese will probably long remember the victory as the first of a st ring of victories that the united nations will pile up in the »Pacific war. On the other side of the world, the united na tions were bombing Germany with a ferocity that presaged another offensive-invasion of Europe. At the same time French warships sail ed into the allied camp to give the united nat ions another material and spiritual “lift”. Vice Admiral Rene Emil Godfroy, commander of the Alexandria fleet, has finally decided to tu rn the ships based at Alexandria over to the all ies. On the political front, General Charles De- Gaulle and General Henri Giraud, French lead ers, have met to bring about greater unity am ong their people, who were split by the German conquest of France. Victories have also been recorded by the all ies on other fronts. It is difficult for a person to review these tri umphs without commenting on their impotence if victories for freedom and tolerance are not registered at the peace table. If this world is to have peace, nations must absolutely forget their selfishness and give con sideration to the positions of the others. The prospects do not look bright, with Russia and Poland already fighting over the spoils before the fighting is completed. Kingman Kolony ■ ■ -» » . - ents, Mr and Mrs R. L. Haworth.
