Wiessensee is three-quarters inside the city limits and only 2Vi miles from its center. Pankow lies iVt miles inside Berlin and is due north of the municipal boundary. Payoff Battle The Russian communique said that street fighting raged through other Berlin suburbs and the Germans acknowledged that the "payoff battle was in progress. A German radio broadcast announced that Russian forces, slashing in from the north and east, have driven 4 13 miles into metropolitan Berlin in a blazing climax to the war. Elsewhere, it was revealed officially that the American 9th army had been alerted for a junction with Russian- spearheads speeding on beyond Berlin near the Elbe River.

Radio Paris said flatly that the Russians and Americans had met Suspend Gasoline Rationing, Heeri Says (Continued from Page 1) abusive use of gasoline for pleasure," Sen. Heen's resolution cites the following additional reasons why rationing should be suspended: 1. Area of the Islands is limited but almost all roads, are winding and hilly. 2. Farmers, ranchers and other rural residents whose efforts are needed for war purposes are losing manhours in obtaining and renewing ration books and coupons.

4. Removal of gas rationing would "contribute greatly to the morale of the civilian population," whose normal amusements have been cut off almost entirely by the war and the greatly increased population of the Islands. Moreover, says the resolution, "war weariness exists in Hawaii to an extent which no other portion of the United States can realize, not having been subject to the restrictions, the pressure and the peril which have existed in Hawaii." OKIN A WANS GET PLENTY TO" EAT These Okinawa civilians, homeward bound with baskets of foodstuffs atop their heads were aided by the United States Military Government, already established on Okinawa, in getting all the necessary food and shelter they need.

Army.) Jap Killers By CAPT. CHARLES E. McVARISII, USMC GUAM, Marianas Islands, Apr. 16 (Delayed) Applying stealth reminiscent of American Indians, native Guamanians, trained by U. S.

Marines, are killing scores of Japs who have been in hiding since organized resistance ceased here seven months ago. A 13-man Guam police patrol, led by Juan U. Aguon, 40, father of five and peace-time coal com pany salesman, has killed at least 140 Nips since Marine Major gen eral Henry L. Larsen, island commander, authorized its activation last September to guard native holdings. Countless others have been de stroyed in their caves and camps by accurate rifle fire and grenade tosses of the' native police force according to Lieutenant Com mander Jon Wug, (CQ) of Hono lulu, T.

Chief of Police. The patient persistence and cunning of Aguon's men often keep them on the trail of Nips for days before they corner and re lentlessly eliminate them. The leader expressed particular pride in the following recent mission: Kill 5 Nips While pursuing cow thieves, who proved to be Japs, the Guam anians followed a trail along a cliff overlooking the sea and raided four hideouts in rapid succession, killing five Nips and probably mortally wounding eight more. First, a lookout was spotted and quietly killed with dispatch. Two more met death nearby.

A third was- killed and 17 escaped at a second hideout; a fourth Jap fell at a third. But the jack-pot was hit in a fourth bivouac containing 25 Nips. of whom were wounded and jumped off the cliff into the sea 300 feet below. The last hideout, consisting of wooden construction with corrugated roofs, was well built and plentifully supplied with fancy foodstuffs, three rifles, 15 hand grenades and a small amount of ammunition. Food seized included the stolen cow carcass, 300 melons, natives fruits, and rations, rice, barley nuts, canned milk and small quantities of butter and cheese probably the finest spread to be found anywhere on the island.

Eisenhower's Chief of Staff, said the double envelopment of the Ruhr which opened the way for the sweep to the Nazi capital was explained entirely by Eisenhower himself and was one of the great military feats of history. Gery Smith disclosed that Gen.

Eisenhower went ahead with the plan despite the opposition of many advisers. i Meantime, Li' Gen. Alexander M. Patch's 7th Army was throwing three armored and seven infantry divisions into action in leading the assault toward the Nazi redoubt. The 7th Army swept up more than 300 towns and villages.

It was out in front of the growing offensive moving along first class highways to Munich and Berchtesgaden on, a front stretching from Czechoslovakia southwest to the Swiss border. Local Lodge In Memorial For Roosevelt Officers and members of Mystic Lodge No. 2, Knights of Pythias, stood for a minute in prayer at its meeting last Wednesday night in respect to the memory of their fellow member, the late President Franklin D. Roosevelt. This mark of respect was called for by R.

E. Cunningham, C. immediately after the opening of the meeting. President Roosevelt was a mem ber of Columbus Lodge No. 332 of New York City.

Boost Payroll By $4,000,000 Salary increases totaling an estimated $4,000,000 for the next biennium will be awarded terri torial employes if a recommenda tion of the House finance com mittee for passage of HB-223 is acted upon by both houses of the legislature and approved by Gov-ernor Stainback. The committee's favorable report on the bill came out yesterday and was adopted by the House of Representatives.

Hawaii Defense Act Rule 88 modified the existing Hawaiian compensation schedule by making the rates in the higher grades similar to those in effect in the city-county and, at the same time, added five new grades. HB-223 proposes to increase each rate now in effect under Rule 88 by $600 per year. The bill further proposes: 1. To allow an increment to an employe who, after promotion, renders six months or more of satisfactory service in the fiscal year in jurisdictions operating on a fiscal year basis and not requiring a probationary period for a promotion. 2.

To allow increments to an employe serving in the armed forces upon reemployment within 40 days after his discharge. 3. To grant credit for length of service to an employe by allowing him a salary increment after each five years of satisfactory service after attaining the maximum rate in the salary schedule for his grade. After the paragraph of the original bill calling for the 000 appropriation to cover salary increases of territorial employes, Rep. A.

Q. Marcallino's finance committee inserted a new para graph providing a $3,700,000 insure that the classification of positions and the payment of compensation of offi cers and employes of the city and county and the several counties made and determined under the terms of this Act shall become fully effective." "Your stated the report, "does not believe that postwar salaries will return to prewar levels, and this will call for an in crease in the basic salary rates, The action taken by this House on HB-31, relating to teachers sala nes, also necessitates an adjustment of the salary rates of gen eral employes." 'Werewolves' Uprising Is Under Watch (Continued from Page 1) of Hitlerite civilians had banded together and armed themselves secretly to fight the invaders. One report said that an American major and a captain were killed yesterday and their bodies found slumped in the seat of a jeep with their throats cut. Ready To Strike A jeep-ride survey through score of Bavarian towns revealed a disauieting report that husky blond youths in their middle twenties were walking the streets of many places ready to-strike. One infantry division disclosed that several hundred of these youths had hastily discarded their Wehrmacht uniforms, but were found when the Americans seized their barracks building.

Three GIs riding through an oe cupied town yesterday found an empty Mark-4 tank, with its engine and radio running, blocking the main street. Sgt. Emile F. Creste of Los Angeles destroyed the tank's guns and steering apparatus and then used a pistol to rout the black uniformed panzer crew which rushed from a nearby building. Civilians reported three additional tanks were still operating in a woods near the town.

The Moscow radio did confirm, however, that Red armies were in the outskirts of Berlin and had engaged the enemy in battle there.

The Russians also took Ber-nau, ZVi miles northeast of Berlin. Takes Toscanini's Dance Invitation (Continued frcm Page 1) said, "and he told me just when to get on the stage and when to start dancing." The expression on Toscanini face, when he became aware of the slacks-clad dancer, was far from spiritual. His baton fell and so did his face. He placed his hands on his hips and stared while three po licemen and the concert-man ager chased the dancer into a corner. Music Goes On The perspiring orchestra kept on playing.

Miss Faville kept perfect time with arabesques, pirouettes and leaps. She spied the concert manager and danced toward the other side of the stage. Three policemen stepped from the wings, nodded respectfully to Toscanini and joined the chase. When she was cornered, they hustled her to the wings. The orchestra began the number again.

Miss Faville said she first saw Toscanini in Carnegie Hall several years ago. "I felt at that time that I was spiritually wedded to him. He has been a guiding star in my life ever since." She said she looked at the program and saw "Invitation to the Dance" and knew she could not resist it. "I moved down by the ramp, determined to go on the stage, and it seemed to me that when the time came he said just as he has talked to me thousands of times before and I just had to go on the stage and dance." up Store for Men HOTEL 5(D) rmmrui liU VJJ LiU A 'W 1 4 XjX "Xi, V- 4 IFreneli Press Distrusts GB (Copyright 1945. by New York Timet and Honolulu Advertiser) PARIS, Apr.

21 In the Paris-Presse, Philippe Barres asks whether the German diplomat, Franz von Papen permitted himself to be captured In order to use his "links with Rome and with certain financial circles in England and America" to make that "moderate peace" advocated by the London Economist. This comment reflects distrust of the British "attitude toward Germany which has been reinforced lately by signs of British reservations regarding: Gen. Charles de Gaulle's desire to detach the Rhineland from the Reich. This diver fence of view resembled that which followed the last war.
