Receive Purple Heart Award | Made To Son In Armed Forces

Mr. and Mrs. Huber Cochran, parents of Cpl. Janies H. Cochran, have received the Purple Heart, which was awarded to their son. It was the first word they had of his being wounded, as he had requested the government to refrain from notifying his parents. However, from letters to a relative, they learned, only recently, of his being wounded on December 13 in Germany which incidentally was the first day he was in actual combat. He was wounded a second time in Germany when the building in which he was housed was bombed, killing his buddy next to him, and tossing him 20 feet into the air burying him under the debris. For sometime it wa s thought the rescue squad would be unable to free him from the rubble. He spent 128 days in combat and living in Tbxholee. Cpl. Cochran entered the service in March, 1944, and left for overseas in October of the same year. He is in the infantry with the First army, and a member of the 78th lightning division.

Reveal Amazing Plan to Turn Arctic Waters On Japan and Freeze Coast N,KOIAtVSK^^/ \\SOVIET UNION £ r czzzzz' MANCHURIA -- SOFU GAN ~ -- - - - —-— ONE OF THE MOST FANTASTIC suggestions of the war, but one declared leasible by London scientists, is a plan under consideration by Russian scientists which would change the climate of Japan’s main islands and the northern Asiatic coast to Vladivostok. In the above map is shown the general idea involved. A dam would be built across the Gulf of Tartary (1) near Nikolaevsk to Sakhalin. This would divert icy Arctic waters from the Vladivostok coast line and this frigid area would become semitropical. The icy waters would then move down through the Kurile Islands to Japan’s Pacific seaboard and perhaps down to the latitude of Shanghai. The result would be to freeze Japan on it’s eastern coast and eripple the Jap island.*; demographically almost as seriously as Siberia—so it is said. Quite outside of any wartime effect, a complete upset would take place in trade, population, industry and strategy if the scheme wera successfully carried out While sounding like a chapter from Jules Verne, Soviet government engineers are giving it consideration.
