“LIST IS “TEASE

List Four More Names After Stimson Admits Capture ‘ le Spe Of ‘Few’ Fliers. By UNITED PRESS Japan gave four more names today which she said belonged to American aviators held prisonar in Japan. The inference was that they, like the previous five announced, had been captured partcipating in the American air raid on Tokyo in

April, , The new announcement seemed to. make clear that Japan was embarked on a “teaser” propaganda campaign aimed at American morale. : Tokyo radio said yesterday that it wondered whether the relatives of “a certain American aviator” who lived at a specific address in Cleveland knew where he was? It developed that there was no such street in Cleveland. The Japanese were trying to build up: the allegation that the American airmen had machinegunned “school children” and, by threatening “severe punishment,” to lessen American determination to prosecute the war. Only one of the names published today bore any resemblance to a name on the official list of Anierican fliers participating in the Tokyo raid. The new names given by -Tokyo radio were: G. E. Folmar, J. Vilgar, Charles J. Myking, George Barr. The war department had listed a Lieut. George Barr of Queens \Village, N. Y., as one of the raiders. Tokyo’s previous list named Lieut. Edward M. Hallmark of Dallas; Lieut. William G. Farrow, ‘Washington, D. C.; Sergt. Harold Spatz, Lebo, Kas.; Corp. Jacob Deshazer, Madres, Ore., and Robert L. Heiss. Except for the name of Heiss, these names corresponded exactly to those given in Washington yesterday by War Secretary Henry L. Stimson in the first U. S. revelation that American fliers had been taken

prisoner after the raid by Brig. Gen.|

James Doolittle. Mr. Stimson said yesterday that some American airmen who participated in the Tokyo raid had been forced down in China and that “a very few” were Japanese prisoners. No plane was shot down over Japan proper. Those forced down in China had exhausted their fuel fighting head winds.

Rains Slow Advance of

Aussies

GEN. MacARTHUR'S HEADQUARTERS, Australia, Oct. 23 (U. P.).—Allied ground troops advanced slowly in heavy tropical rains in the Owen Stanley mountains of New Guinea today while bombers of the southwest Pacific command continued their support of American. forces in the Solo~ mons. Gen. Douglas MacArthur announced in a communique that allied medium bombers dropped 20,000 pounds of bombs on Japanese shipping concentrations in the area of Buin, in southern Bougainville island, just before dawn yesterday. The planes flew through bad

weather to again pound ships and facilities that might be used by the enemy against the Americans on Guadalcanal, about 300 miles to the south. Layers of clouds obscured accurate observation of the results of the raid. All of MacArthur’s planes - returned safely, although they encountered heavy antiaircraft fire and concentrations of searchlights. In the Owen Stanley fighting, in which the Japanese were being forced back steadily after their unsuccessful thrust toward Port Moresby, the allied advance north of Eora creek continued yesterday, although at a slower pace because of the rain, Gen. MacArthur reported.

LONDON, Oct. 23 (U. P.).—Lieut. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, commander of United States forces in the European theater, said last night that axis propaganda reports circulated last month that several American troop transports had been sunk were “completely unfounded.” He said the official denial of the axis stories “had been withheld until every American soldier who was .on the Atlantic at the time of the German announcement had landed safely in the United Kingdom and we could assure ourselves of the complete falsity of the German claims.”
