Nichols’ 430th CA battalion crashed to the front in the Camp Davis war bond drive Saturday with a report that 83 per cent of the battalion per sonnel had Authorized day deduc tions from the purchase of bonds.

The Golden Text was from Ro mans 8:5. “They that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.” Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon were the following from the Bible; “Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the good ness of thy house, even of thy holy temple” (Psalms 65:4). The Lesson-Sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Sci ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy: “As a material, theoretical life basis is found to be a misappre hension of existence, the spiritual and divine Principle of man dawns upon human thought, and leads it to ‘where the young child was,’— even to the birth of a new-old idea, to the spiritual sense of being and of what Life includes. Thus the whole earth will be transformed by Truth on its pinions of light, chasing away the darkness of er ror.” (Page 191). -v Quezon Is Invited To Visit Mexico WASHINGTON, May 17— (IP) — President Camacho of Mexico, in a message to President Quezon of the Philippines made public today, said “the transient triumphs ob tained by the aggressors do not diminish our hope of final victory for the principles of justice and of the peaceful relationship of men. ’ Camacho sent felicitations to Quezon, who arrived in Washing ton last week with members of the Commonwealth government after escaping from the Japanese-invad ed Philippines. The Mexican chief executive also extended an invitation to Quezon to visit Mexico City while on the American continent, which the Philippine president accepted. Quezon visited Mexico City in 1937 while on a trip to North Arperica. Earl Browder, Free Again, In New York NEWARK, N. J., May 17.—(#)— Earl Browder, leader of the Com* munist party of the United States, left a train here today and entered a waiting automobile for the final leg of his trip from Federal prison in Atlanta to New York. Browder, freed yesterday when President Roosevelt commuted his four-year jail sentence for falsifi cation in obtaining a passport, was met by two friends. He would make no comment other than he was ‘in the hands of friends now.” He would not dis close where he was going in New York. Robert Minor, party treasurer, accompanied him on the .train. XT LAE IS HEAVILY BOMBED BY U. S. Raids Are Carried Out To Thwart Any Jap Con templated Sea Battle ALLIED HEADQUARTERS, Australia, May 17.— (d>) —Nine Japanese planes were destroyed in three attacks at Lae, New Guinea, and a tenth was damaged in the Deboyne Islands in four destruc tive raids by bombers with mixed Australian and American crews, Gen. MacArthur’s headquarters announced today. “Numerous fires were started’’ in three attacks on Lae, much bombed enemy invasion spring board to the northeast of Australia, the communique said. Eight bomb ers were destroyed on the ground and a Zero fighter was shot down in flames. Hits were registered on the ground, runways and buildings at Lae, a seaplane was damaged at Deboyne Island in the L'ouisiade archipelago southeast of New Guinea at the northern expanse of the Coral sea where a Japanese fleet was routed in destructive de feat earlier this month. The Allied airmen apparently were battering away at recently reinforced Japanese air strength in the region to insure another sea air victory should the enemy re turn for battle on the waters ap proaching this island continent. The raids on Lae were described unofficially as among the heaviest ever made by the Allies in this area. Heavy, highly explosive bombs pitted the airdromes and incen diaries were used freely and the wnole area was burning fiercely when the raiders turned home. “The .Japanese were surprised completely,” a correspondent with the bombers said, “everything we had was dumped. Two of the larg est buildings were hit and two anti-aircraft positions were blown up. For the first time the Japa nese used anti-aircraft guns from floating rigs in the harbor. These were heavily attacked. Two near misses probably killed many of the crew and damaged the guns.” There were no Allied losses. -V Durham Farmers Sell Timber For Piling ■ DURHAM, May 17—Certain Dur in on the growing market for piling ham county farmers are cashing timber, reports James L. Huff, as sistant farm agent. Stumpage prices for this ma terial, now in great demand around Navy yards and in other war con struction, usually runs from two to three times as much as the stumpage from saw timber. Agent Huff explained that in most cases the removal of piling does not over-cut the stand and leave the woods in a wrecked con dition.
