Blaney Soldier
Helps In ForUnj
Japantrae Attacl
How his infaptry regiment got wind
of a planned Jap attaek and beat them
to the draw was told by Pfc. Walter
Peake, Jr., of Blaney, in an Interview
released last week by the war de
partment.
The 2a-year-old doughboy, a Brown
ing automatic rifleman In the 32nd
Infantry division, was wounded in
that action last July. Evacuated from'
the Pacific by plane, he was at Hamil
ton F'ield, Calif., awaiting transporta
tion to Augusta, Ga., for further treat
ment at Oliver General hospital.
“We had been holding outposts
along the Dlranlmor river, close to
Aitape, with our lines several miles
back from the river," he said. “But
when we leame<r the Japs were get
ting ready to attack on a big scale,
we started an attack first.”
The operation at Aitape, he- pointed
out, was aimed at neutralizing the
Japs at Wewak. one of the enemy’s
largest bases in New Guinea.
“When our lines were pulled up to
the river," Private Peake continued,
“my battalion was sent on across to
clean out the Japs along the beach.
We moved up three miles or so that
day, with a c^ple of hours of bard
fighting where''we ran into three pill-
box positions. That night, though,
after we had already set up our lines.
Cross Notes
had heard a lot of firing and we found
the Japs had filtered into our lines.

GENERAL Eisenhower means you when he pleads
for more production on the Home Front becduae
pnipwood is now a No. 1 Critical War Shortage and
^ia is a pulpwood*prodncing areau ~
According to General Eisenhower, 5,000 rounds
of ammunition are being poured into German de>
lenses every minute; 6,000,000 rounds of artillery
shells and 2,000,000 rounds of mortar shells are
being hurled at the Nazis every mouth.
Guns Fired .With Ptdpujood
Eighty percent of the powder that fires these
shells is made of pnipwood, and every shell
sent overseas is shipped in a carton made of
pnipwood.
Don’t you **po8tpone the day of victory”. Every
hour of peak pulpwood production on the Home
Front hastens Victory, and every lagging or wasted
hour that could be used in cutting more pulpwood
postpones it
