WITH THE 82ND AIRBORNE DIVISION IN one of the heaviest artillery barrages in the vicinity of 1'osse, Belgium, when the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment was sweeping toward the Siegfried Line, three paratroopers at a great risk to their own safety, administered first aid to four seriously wounded men in need of medical treatment. Private First Class Robert C. Aube, 651 Crescent avenue, Bum- fords, Maine; Corporal Paul P. Baiena, Dunbar, and Corporal Andrew F. Copp, Goi-ham, were waiting for ordrrs to attack when a heavy artillery barrage was directed on their platoon.

The three voluntarily exposed themselves to enemy observation and artillery fire to administer first aid to the casualties. The prompt action of these men did much to alleviate suffering of the wounded and to hasten their recovery. Their action aided in the quick reorganization of the platoon, and enabled it to perform its mission without delay. The troopers are veterans of action in Sicily, Italy, Normandy, Holland, Belgium, and Germany. They hold Combat Infantryman and Distinguished Unit badges.

MOUNT PLEASANT, May 29. --Mr. and Mrs. Harry Yothers of Brinkerton have received a letter from their son, Start Sergeant Lloyd, who was wounded in the eyes April 12, stating he is improving and can see a little more each day. He is in a New York hospital and is able to sit up.

By International News Service. Tokyo anil Yokohama, twin, cities on Tokyo Bay, were seeching today--one from. American set fires and the other from a political upheaval in the Nipponese navy. Some 450 American Superforts, flying with fighter escort, touched off huge fires in the industrial- shipping center of Yokohama. The assault, the second daylight incendiary attack by the B-29s, was the first such raid on Yokohama.

Only other daylight fire attack was staged on Nagoya. Tire Japanese, in an imperial communique, acknowledged that "some damage was inflicted on the city" but claimed that at least 30 of the huge bombers were downed and 40 others "heavily damaged." In Tokyo, the Japanese navy ministry, obviously "burned up" over Nippon's failure to check the successful U. S. invasion of Okinawa, shook up its high command. Admiral Soemu Toyoda was removed from the post of cornmander-m-chief of the Japanese fleet and also was replaced as commander-in-chief of the over-all naval command and as commander of the naval escorts command.

The three posts were given to Vice-Admiral Jisaburo Ozawa. Though the Nipponese navy has done nothing to halt the Okinawa invasion, suicide Jap pilots were revealed todaj; to have staged a new aerial counterattack on the Americans. Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz announced that in night-long strikes Sunday evening and early Monday morning enemy airmen smk one light U. S.

ship and damaged 12 others. As against these gains, the Japanese suffered the destruction oj: at least 77 of the attacking planes. Mustang fighters striking at Kasumigaura jiaval air station, near Tokyo, destroyed or damaged 41 Jap planes. On Okinawa, meantime, the bloody battle for Sauri with tmdiminished fury. The capital city ot Naha, lying on the west coast of Okinawa, was virtually captured by Marines who received reinforcements from the north bank of the Asato River aail then speared farther south.

Once below the city, the leathernecks veered slightly to the southeast, aiming probably at a junction with -veterans of the Seventh Army Infantry slashing across the island some two miles south of Shuri. A junction of these two forces would cut off the enemy's Shuri garrison completely from further withdrawal. General Douglas MacArthur's troops on Northern Luzon tightened a pincers upon several thousand Jap troops in the Villa Verde area. Seizure of Santa Fe, at the southern entrance to the Cagayan Valley plain, and steady drives along the upper reaches of the Villa Verde trail cut off the Japs from outside communications. In China, meantime, Chinese forces hattled along the approaches to Pinyang in a drive into Japan's lifeline to Indo-China and Singapore.

Pinyang is northeast of captured Nanning, near which the Jups were being mopped up. In Damascus, meanwhile, the acting Syrian premier declared his pountry would not conclude any treaty giving Near Bast concessions to the French. Kamil Mardam Bey said that what he called French pro vocations in no way. altered Syria's position. He said other Arab states had promised to help Syria in the dispute over the presence of French troops in the Levant.

Reports from Damascus told of continued instances of violence af different points in Syria. Hope an early settlement of the dispute centered on reports that both the United States and Britain would seek soluion of the thorny problem. In London, U. S. Supreme Court Justice Robert H.

Jackson emphasized the urgency beginning the war criminal trials. Jackson--chief U. S. war criminal prosecutor--spent the day studying Wai- Crimes Commission records. BAN ON CHBISTMAS TREE LIGHTS LIFTED Special to 'Hie Courier.
