The latest implements of death Baye been given the Japanese fight- fog man by a nation that has sacri. ficed every possible luxury In order to create an armory equal to or better than that of the United Nations. The result of these sacrl' fices was much in evidence 'in the ."Bolomons. . The Japanese technical equip- ment in nearly every case was equal in quality to that used by the United Nations and In many © €ases superior. In no instance was any of the captured material found to be of flimsy design or qperation. It was all high grade in both in- gredients and workmanship, Air-Cooled Machine Guns Nor has the Rising Sun Empiro overlooked the slightest innovation which might ald its armies in its design to conquer the world. Ma. chine guns captured in the battle of Tenaru during which 730 Japa nese wore annihilated were of the Jatest air-copled design and either of European construction or a most exact duplicate. The Japanese troops who fought in the battle of Tenaru were armed with the latest model flame throw- ers, which throw a 40-foot flame. One-man light machine guns were examined by gunners who praised their construction and perform- ance and said they were equal to the best now in use by our forces, An example of the high grade equipment employed by the Japa. nese was a mahogany box used to package extra radio tubes. The box itself was a masterpiece of 3 Foreign Devices Copied The equipment shows that Nip- ponese military obsecrers attached to the various embassies througn- Incorporated in cach weapon are the best devices obtainable from the different models now being wsed by the various countries of the world, some of them allies of Japan, some of them her enemies, An examination of wrecked Zero fighters destroyed at Gavutu re- vealed that the planes were of _expert construction from propeller hub to tail skid, were durable, built of the best materials obtainable and assembled with great care and skill. | i The same characteristics were ~ found to be true of every other weapon captured from the Japa- nese in the Solomons, whether it was a field telephone or a four- engined bomber, Germany May Use Starvation Tactics A. spokesman for the Norwe- gian Government-in-Exile said that German authorities may de- liberately starve the peoples of occupied Europe in an attempt to force the United Nations to end their blockade. The spokesman said that the Germans have requisitioned prac- tically all food stuffs in Norway for Nazi workers and occupation troops, leaving some 3,000,000 persons in that country alone to face starvation this winter, "It is not impossible," he said, "that the Germans deliberately in- tend to starve the people in order to force Norway to sign a separ- ate peace or to force the Allies to end their blockade. They prob- ably look forward to a state of affairs where the Allies will have to send food or see the eis starve to death."

Picking out a large one propped in a corner, he began the ordeal of wrigiling toward it, Eventually he made it, panting for breath, salty perspiration dripping over his eyes.

The dusty rays from the sky- light reflected on a revolver in a man's hand--it wasn't John; it must he the other man who had helped carry him the night before. Suspiciously, the man looked from the spot where they had thrown the captive to the shadowy corner. Slowly he approached, gun aimed squarely at Dawson. - + "Water, for God's sake, water!"

Then he moved quickly across the storeroom and turned his back to the packing case edge, using the scraping method on the wrist rope.
