DECATUR DAILY. DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA,

TINY ISLAND 750 (Continued From Page One) anese capital. Three Japanese warships were sunk and a fourth —an escort carrier—was set afire and overturned. Forty-nine American planes were lost in the raid, but none of the ships in the huge armada which penetrated to within less than 300 miles of Tokyo even was hit. B-29 superfortresses from the Marianas followed through today with another raid on Tokyo. The war department announced merely that the giant raiders had hit the capital's home island of Honshu, but a Japanese communique said “about 100" B-29s bombed Tokyo “and its environs.” “Slight damage” was caused, Tokyo said. India-based superfortresses simultaneously attacked targets on the Malay peninsula presumably the great Singapore naval base. A raid on Singapore might interrupt Japanese preparations to send warships to the aid of the homeland and Iwo. > The invasion of Iwo came on the’ fourth day of a terrific naval bombardment and the 74th day of an air assault on the tiny patch of land within lighter-plane range of Tokyo. Japanese broadcases said American warships completely ringed Iwo and fired shells into the jsland from virtually every point on the compass. 0 Churchill Returns From Crimea Confab London.
