War Secretary Reports WASHINGTON Oct 29 (UP) Secretary of War Henry Stimson said today that the raging battle of the Solomon- islands once described as a by Douglas headquarters was the result of plans agreed to by the joint army and navy chiefs of staff Asked TREASURY HAPS SALARY PLANS at a press conference whether the undertaking was purely a navy venture Stimson said It was not In his province to comment on developments In the Solomon islands except that he would He said others had resigned since that time In most cases Winters said they left teaching to jobs in other fields The

Press and Japan battled over an increasingly widespread area of the southwest Pacific today as a powerful Nipponese armada of battleships aircraft carriers heavy cruise rsand submarines was reported1 moving eastward to menace American positions Dispatches from the South Seas battle zone Indicated the fight for the Solomon Islands waj spreading into a vast maneuver that may determine control of the entire southwest Pacific army troops and marines hemmed in corridor only six mUea long by three miles deep were officially credited with inflicting bloody losses on the Japs at Guadalcanal Island Jap forces in overwhelming numbers were reported crowding American defenders of the prize Guadalcanal air base on three sides using heavy artillery and tanks Heartening Account Nevertheless the ravy in Washington gave this heartening account of the struggle since the Jap invaders began their All-cut land-offensive seven days ago: losses In men and equipment in troop actions cn tine Island eince October 23 have been very heavy as compared to our Lately the navy said the Jap assault has tapered down to scale thrusts" indicating that the enemy was either waiting for re-inforcementsor had been stung to discouragement by the fierce American' defense fire Meanwhile superior enemy seaborne forces -were mobilizing at the approaches to American bases in the New Hebrides and Fiji islands threatening vital allied communications between the Hawaiian islands and Australia Jap sea and air attacks have already been made on American positions in the New Hebrides which lie immediately southeast of the Solomons Dispatches from Pearl Harbor said it was the first time since the Philippines campaign that the Japs had massed such superiority ln power and declared there was no doubt It was an all-out attempt to destroy American footholds in the south Pacific Aussies Active On the New Guinea front General Douglas headquarters reported that Australian troops continued to press the Japs back toward their north coast invasion base in a drive across the Owen Stanley mountains As the whole South Seas campaign flamed toward a climax General Mac Arthur himself sounded an indirect appeal for a unified command over the embattled area The navy gave no indication that a decision was near in the Solomons struggle The all-out assault which started October 23 had tapered by Tuesday to what' the navy communique termed scale at the American positions on Guadalcanal These enemy attacks like the more savage Jap thrusts proceeding them were thrown back and the navy describing the results of the land fighting observed: "Enemy losses ln men and equipment in troop actions on the island since October 23 have been very heavy as compared to our own" While both sides appeared to be getting their second wind in the Solomons naval observers kept a concerned eye on the waters north of the Santa Cruz islands where American planes torpedoed a Jap plane carrier Monday night and bombed a cruiser The enemy naval concentrations iq the entire area were regarded as heavy and ravy quarters voiced expectation that another major sea battle might flare up at any hour Willkie to Talk Again

VOTE War Problems Get Most Attention Despite Contests SAN FRANCISCO Oct 29 (AP) The west coast teeming with war efforts has allowed its interest in next election to sag to an unprecedented extent This disinterest has complicated the jobs of political seers particularly regarding the gubernatorial race between Governor Culbert Olson Democrat of California and his Republican opponent Attorney General Earl Warren Under the stress of war California has gained about 1000000 population but has lost 231619 voters since 1940 This indicates that not only the great majority of migratory industrial workers now crowding its cities have failed to qualify as voters but also that many already established citizens have no intense feelings about the outcome There are nearly 1000000 more registered Democrats than Republicans in the state yet Olson was closely pressed within his own party by Warren at the primary election Oregon whose population has been swollen by a great influx of workers into the Portland area also experienced a drop in registration indicating a lack of interest even though the two Republican representatives Homer Angell and James Mott have been accused by their opponents of not cooperating enthusiastically in the war effort Oregon now will have four representatives instead of three Washington state another area of war production reported a drop in registration and little
