LAVAL FEUDS WITH DORIOT

VICHY, June 12 (U, P).A feud between chief of government Pierre Laval and Jacques Doriot, leader of the bitterly anti-Jewish “direct action” organization, was brought into the open today when Laval publicly accused his former supporter of trying to seize control of the Vichy government, Laval met Doriot's bid for power by forbidding the latter's terrorist “P., P. I” direct action organization, whieh has carried out antiJewish violence in occupied France, to organize poiitical rallies in unocoupied France.

Action Described as Definitely Offensive
IT WAS definitely an offensive action in which a United States navy task force hunted down and defeated a Japanese invasion fleet. The naval planes first found a Japanese fleet assembled at Tue lagi. “Tulagi is a neat little harbor nestling on the south side of Florida island in the Solomons, about 1000 miles northeast of Australia,” Mr, Taylor said. “We had never heard of the place,” said Mr, Burch, “until late one night the word passed over the loud speaker: “Prepare all squadrons to ate tack ships in the harbor of Tulagi at dawn. “It was a complete surprise, Our task force had been hunting the enemy in the Coral sea, Long before dawn we were ready and impatient to take off. “We were over Tulagi early in the morning. Every plane was in position carrying its full load of torpedoes and bombs, We did not know what to expect. But there, far below, we could see through the clouds that the harbor was filled with warships and transports.”

“From then on it was every man for himself, “One thing I clearly remember, As the dive bombers pushed over into screaming dives every pilot was yelling something into the radio phone, “Some were cussing a bit, most of them were yelling: ‘Remember Pearl Harbor' “As soon as I saw what ships were in the harbor I instructed the pilots which ones to hit, There wags no time in that melee for detailed assignments, We just went to work with torpedoes and bombs. “The Japanese couldn't get their anti-aircraft fire into the air until the attack had started, By that time it was too late. “When we completed the attack the harbor was filled with sunken and burning ships and a few which managed to crawl to the beach to keep from sinking.
8 ” ” Harbor Strewn With Smoking Wreckage
“WE DEFNITELY sank nine and possibly 11 ships, The nine were two heavy cruisers, three light cruisers, two destroyers and two big transports. We believe we also sank a seaplane tender and a third transport. In addition we sank many small boats and lighters by machine gun fire, “The whole harbor was strewn with smoking wreckage. “We lost absolutely nothing. A couple of the boys brought back a few holes in their planes but no man was even scratched.” That, it was emphasized here, was merely the start of the battle of the Coral sea. The remainder of its story is yet to be told.
