QUARTERS, Australia; Aug. 8 (U. 'P.).—Allied planes, lashing out in ‘a sudden major offensive, have shot

‘down seven enemy planes in the] -

heaviest attack of the war on one Japanese invasion base and have ' dropped one-ton bombs on ane other, it was announced today. " Heavy bombing planes attacked Rabaul, in the New Britain island 90Q miles northeast of Australia, the first big invasion base the Japanese established. Sweeping out from their advanced bases, they were already plastering the Vunukanau airdrome in face of heavy anti-aircraft fire when a fieet of 20 enemy fighters rose to challenge them.

15 Tons Crash Down

In a wild fight, the allied crews shot. down seven of the enemy planes, crack new-type zeros, and ~ damaged others. Only one allied plane was misse ing. Others suffered minor ddmage and there were some casualties. _ In this heaviest and most successful raid of the eritire war, allied planes dropped 15 tons of ‘bombs directly in their target zone, -Gen. Douglas MacArthur's communique said. A daring daylight attack was made by medium bombers on the Lae invasion base on the Huon gulf _on the north coast 6f New Guinea, -midway between Australia and Rabaul. Dropped Every Bomb

It was here that allied planes, likewise in strong force, dropped every bomb they had, including 2000-pounders believed to have been used for the first time, in their target area, . the airdrome and dis- . persal aregs. Crews saw the 2000pound bombs crashing on the runway. The daylight attack: was followed by extensive harassing raids last night, when again great demolition bombers were dropped on the airdrome. . It was Indicated that the situation in the Buna-Gona zone, 150 miles down the New Guinea north coast = the Lae-Salamaua area was istatic.

Mr. Diogenes! Here's Your Man

ALEX SCHWARTZ, who has a dry -goods store at 1609 S. East st., believes he has found an honest man. Yesterday a letter came to Mr. Schwartz and inside it “were two half-dollars, four $1 bills and a" note. Printed in pencil was this message: “Here is $5 I owe -you. You gave me $5 too much change duriflg depression.” Mr. Schwartz said he remembered that three or four years ago he thought he had given a customer too much change. After the customer had left, he checked his cash register and found that he had.

CURTIN CLEARS SUPPLY ISSUE

Says Australia Agreed to Diversion of Aid to More

Vital Fronts.

MELBOURNE, Aug. 8 (U. P.)— Prime Minister John Curtin, replying to reports that Australia was not receiving sufficient war equipment from the United States, said today that he had consented to a partial diversion of supplies to other more urgent fronts.

Allocation of supplies to Australia was on a larger scale than actual shipments, he said in a speech here.

“We cannot be placed in a special sanctuary while those associated with us are having their territories actually ravished. “It is one of our obligations not to ask for more planes at the expense of Russia or China or more tanks at the expense of the Middle East.” } Curtin’s remarks apparently were prompted by reports earlier this week that United States forces in Australia totaled one-sixth of all its defenders and that the tofal war equipment here could be replaced by three days’ output of American war factories.

The state C. I. O. doesn’t expect to line up behind any party but to support candidates indorsed by the industrial union councils in the various districts. It is expected that most of the candidates receiving C. I. O. support, however, will be Democrats. The Indianapolis Industrial Union: Council is expected to indorse Congressman Louis Ludlow for re-election and the Delaware county council will probably indorse Democratic Congressman William H. Larrabee. ‘whose entire record is pro-ad-ministration, as against Rep. Raymond H. Springer, a Republican with an isolationist record, in the 10th district. Rep. Larrabee is seeking Rep. Springer’s seat because his own seat was abolished in the 1941 reapportionment. Mr. Frisbie is anxious for the local councils to indorse candidates early so that union mem--bers can get to work for the chosen candidates and he is to send letters to councils throughout the state next week urging them to make indorsements at once. “As far as we are concerned, » says Mr. Frisbie, “winning the war and the peace thereafter is the most important thing. Labor unionism as usual is out.” He says that the C. I. O. will pay particular attention to the “entire record” of congressional candidates and not to just their record since war was declared. 8 ® 2

The Indianapolis Industrial Union council is expected to indorse Dewey E. Myers, the Democratic mayoral candidate, over the Republican nominee, Maj. Gen. Robert Tyndall. C. I. O. leaders say they have no objection to Gen. Tyndall personally but they assert that he is surrounded with too many “fas-cist-minded” persons. ®» » 2 Democratic County Chairman
