FIRES BELIEVED STILL RAGING
Imperial Palace Grounds Damaged by Bombs, Japs Report.
(Continued From Page One)
It was expected that planes from Vice Adm. Maro A. Mitscher’s task force 58, the world’s greatest-con-centration of aircraft carriers, would send the attack into a Seton day today. At least 1000—and probably more ~tons of demolition and fire bombs were cascaded on Tokyo in the twin raid yesterday. Together, . they constituted the heaviest assault ever made on Tokyo. One twice as heavy as the heaviest German raid ever made on London during the height of the 1940-41 blitz. The assault approached in weight those now being made on Germany by the allies. ‘Right Down Main Street’ Crewmen who manned the greatest armada of B-20's ever sent aloft sald they-laid their bombs “right down the main street” of Tokyo. The capital “must be burning furiously,” they said on their return. The B-29's did most of their

Many other convoy stories— nearly as told in detail. Many Murmansk convoys were badly shattered by similar attacks and the run to Malta was almost as bad. American merchant seamen who. made the Murmansk run had one compensation. Anybody who survived one run received enough money in wages and danger money to buy himself a farm. That, incidentally, did not apply to any of the other merchant sailors making the run or to the sailors who escorted them. Copyright, 1945, by The Indianapolis Times and The Chicago Daily News, Ine.
