force from the 3d fleet, bombarded O island, northernmost of the Izu islands 70 miles south of Tokyo, yesterday morning, Carrier planes also joined in the bombardment, the broadcast said, [but it claimed damage was negligible. Another Tokyo broadcast said three allied submarines shelled the west coast of the cape of Erimo on southern Hokkaido, northernmost of the Japanese home islands, yesterday afternoon. Only 24 hours earlier, a single allied submarine had shelled the city of Tomakomai on southern Hokkaido, Tokyo said. Wake Island Blasted Far east of Japan, an American battleship and carrier planes joined in a bombardment of long-by-passed Wake island yesterday, Adm. Chester W. Nimitz announced. Japanese shore batteries and antiaircraft batteries on Wake offered only slight opposition. No Amerfcan crewmen were .injured. but shell fragments caused “extremely minor” damage to some warships. The attack was designed to harass the hunger-weakened garrison | which wasgput off from Japan by the Ameri advance to the threshold of the enemy's home islands. It was on Wake that a handful of U. 8S. marines held off the Japanese for 14 days at the start of the Pacific war, Slight Opposition Only one Superfortress was lost in today’s record five-way attack despite the fact that the four main target cities had been warned they would be bombed to destruction. Moderate anti-aircraft fire and only slight fighter opposition were encountered. A total of 778 bombers struck the four cities and the petroleum installations at Kawasaki, and 42 other Superfortresses mined Shimonoseki strait between the main Japanese home islands of Kyushu and Honshu and waters off Seishin and {Rashin on the coast of northern | Korea. |" Rashin lies only 21 miles south tof the Russian-Korean border and iis 105 miles southwest of Vladivo|stok.
