Headquarter* spokesmen said the raid undoubtedly was the most effective of five staged against military objectives on Honshu, the main Japanese home island. Photographic coverage was of the best because of clear weather over the target Today's assault against military targets in Thailand was by super- | fortresses based in India. > | Tokyo styd the lorn- superfortTess which appeared over the capital in the pre-dawn darkness of ‘‘3a. m.

Malinovsky's troops pimhed west of Isaszeg to the slopes of a duster of heavily-fortified hills oovertng the flat eastern bank of the Danube. Himultaneously. his northern wing drove three miles down the river side to capture Kisalag. six mile* north of Budapest, outflanking the Nazi hill positions.
