NEW JAP BLOW
Saving Planes and Ships For Pacific Thrust,
Capital Believes.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 16 (U. P.) — The Japanese today were believed to be husbanding planes and ships, especially transports and cargo auxiliaries, for another mighty thrust in the Pacific. The Japanese may be preparing for another all-out assault on Guadalcanal, but some experts suggested that they might merely feint in that area and strike hard at other strategic Pacific points. Naval observers said there was evidence that the Japanese were conserving both planes and ships. They cited the comparative lack of

Air Raids Fall Off There hasn't been a full-scale enemy air raid on Guadalcanal for more than a month. The last big one was on Nov. 12 when all but one.of 23 Japanese torpedo planes and eight zeros were shot down. The use of destroyers for troop carrying suggested that the Japanese may be running short of regular transports. Navy Secretary Frank Knox recently estimated that approximately 25 per cent of the known Japanese merchant fleet, as of Dec.

enemy air base at Munda on New Georgia island, 150 miles from Guadalcanal. On Monday, in addition to the Munda raid, the navy’s Douglas dive-bombers attacked the Japanese base at Buin, on Bougainville island, 300 miles from Guadalcanal. The navy’s communique today said that results of the raids were not reported. The Munda field has been under construction for several months and only recently was near completion. The Japanese may have been building this base in an effort to prevent further American penetration of the Solomons.

3 Little Words Bring Yule Joy
LA PORTE, Ind, Dec. 16 (U, P.) —Mr. and Mrs. John Wilk of La Porte said today they will
have the best Christmas in many years, all because of three little words. The couple said their daughter, Helen, believed to be a Japanese prisoner, was last heard from a year ago when she sent a Christmas present from the Phiiippines. Since then, her parents were never sure Helen was alive. Yesterday the parents received a cablegram through the international Red Cross which read: “Well, working, Helen.”

Dr. Von Kleinsmid, who formerly | headed the DePauw academy at Greencastle, Ind., told the institutc of world affairs that his term—using the initials of “United States of North America” with the letter “N” added for euphony—would avoid irritating Latin Americans who also regard themselves as Americans.
