Nimitz said “complete surprise” was effected, and his words were borne. out by a belated Tokyo radio announcemetit, Tokyo’ failed to mention the attack until three hours after Nimitz ‘issued his communique. Then a vaguely-worded Japanese communique admitted a “continuing” attack on the Tokyo areca by “about 800" carrier planes.

His carrier planes carried out on small-scale attack on Lyushu, earl: in June.and then blacked out completely until .their surprise appear: ance off Tokyo this morning. © The last big carrier strike on the Japanese capital was delivered on Feb. 25:26, when Adm. Raymond A. Spruance’s 5th fleet teamed up with the army’s Superfortresses in a savage blow at the city. In that operation, the navy destroyed or damaged 233 Sapuess planes and 31 ships. 35th Straight Day On Feb. 15-16, in the first car-rier-based and B-29 team strike on Tokyo, the Japanese lost 659 planes and 36 ships. The pre-dawn Superfortress strike this morning ushered in the 35th straight day of the pre-inva-sion bombardment that already has laid waste huge areas of 35 Japanese cities. More than 130 square miles of Japanese industrial area were reported officially to haye been burned oyt in 31 cities, with photographic data on four of today's targets still lacking. Deepest B-29 Penetration Today's five-way blow was the fifth major attack delivered by the Marianas-based B-29's this month, The target cities were Sendai, 193 miles north of Tokyo and the deepest penetration yet made by the Supertortresses; Fifu, 18 miles northwest of Nagoya; Sakal, a suburb of Osaka; Yokkaichi, near Nagoya, and Wakayama, 30 miles south of Osaka. Radio Tokyo said Kochi, on the southern coast of Shikoku island, also was bombed, but there was no confirmation of that report from
quarters. All the bombed cities were important but not first-rate war production centers, and first accounts indicated they had been badly burned out, perhaps “written off” the B-29 target list. “The .whole Jap coast was afire when we left,” said one returning B-29 flier, 2d Lt. William C. Boone, Kinston, N. 8S. “Searchlights, flak and B-29's were all over the sky, and a string of fires ran up and down the coast wherever - you looked.”

He said the Japs even hoped to create a conflict of opinion among the American people themselves. “To that end,” he said, “it. would be to their interest, as they see their interest, to initiate a public discussion of the .terms to be applied to Japan.” Radio , Tokyo, he added, already has attempted to do this on several occasions. He recalled that last Oct. 27, in a Navy day speech, he warned that the Japanese would undoubtedly attempt. “to sow dissatisfaction between the allies and even among our own people.” He quotéd parts of that speech, then reaffirmed the United States’ policy toward Japan—it “has been, is, and will continue to be, unconditional surrender.” Cites Truman's Statement” President Truman, he pointed out, assured the Japanese on June 1 that unconditional surrender “does not mean the destruction or enslavement of the Jepanese people.” At that time, Mr. Truman said unconditional surrender “means the end cf the war . . , the termination of the influence of the military leaders who haye brought Japan to the present brink of disaster . . . provision for the return of soldiers and sailors to their families, their farm, their jobs.” “It means,” the President said, “not prolonging the present agony and suffering of the Japanese in the vain hope of victory.”

WHAT does the housewife think of all this? A typical representative had this to say: “I've been lucky the last few days. My grocer has gone into his back room and put soap chips into my shopping bag. But I haven't seen any laundry soap in 10 days. In virtually every city in the country, a United Press dispatch states, package soaps and the bet-ter-known bar soaps have disappeared from grocers’ shelves. B.oMN ” A WASHINGTON soap maker attributed the soap. shortage.nto_ “a shortage of fats and oils and an over-supply of government regulations.” : Use of water-softener to spread soap supplies has been sugges'ed, while housewives dug into old books on “household hints” to find formulae for making sozp at home.

But I sympathize also with the purposes and principles of this charter—to use force if necessary to prevent war.” Millikin thanked Connally and Vandenberg for their. statements, explaining that he was “not debating” the issue but merely asking questions. Connally rejoined that Millikin was “asking them very well, Questions.

The fence of plunt-pointed wir es pointing every which way is proving successful on the Meridian st. ledge and will be installed on other pigeon niches on the building. A. E. Martin, manager of the club for 20 years, is hesitant about claiming the fence will work ““positively.” He said he'd been fooled too many times by “foolproof” pigeon eradicators, But, he said, so far the fence has proved next to the most effective way of keeping the pests off the club's ledges. - . The most effective the pigeonwise Martin has ever seen is Timés Photographer Dean Timm who scared them off in droves as he dangled from a fourth floor ledge today.

was discussed at length at the close of yesterday's session. It involved the question of using council enforcement measures to force boundary changes over which there may be an internatidhal dispute. Senator Warren R. Austin (R. Vt.) pointed out that the charter gives the council authority to recommend specific measures for sete tlement of disputes. This could include a recommendation that. the boundary between two nations be changed. : Austin raised the question of whether the council could employ military force to see that such a recommendation was carried out. Pasvolsky said the council could not. . He conceded, however ‘that such a boundary dispute might lead to eventual use of armed force by
the body. PasVolsky said it was felt in drafting the charter at San Francisco that a recommendation in which the major powers were united | oak have more force than one! in which the Big Five might be | divided. Burton said the council voting formula empowers seven members | to put 50 united nations into war. !

marine base nearly 15 years ago. Authorities are seeking to discover ‘whether the mariné Brad J. Ellison, could have met with foul play.
