OKLAHOMA CITY. Nov. 25 —
(Special—Tlie United War Chest
of Oklahoma nassed the million
dollar mark in Its campaign to
raise $1,250,000 for the USO and
16 war related srvtce and welfare
agencies as the campaign entered
its last week. Carl C. Magee, chest
president, announced today.
Partial reports of campaigns In
75 counties showed $1,074,991 sub-
scribd with many counties report-
ing contributions above their quo-
tas. Magee said. Campaigns In
practically every county In the
state will close this week with
some of the mator counties suen
as Kay. Comanche. Stephens. Ot-
tawa. Craig and Garfield still to
complete their drives.
Recanvaming Suggested
"The surprising thing In thlr
campaign Is the manner In which
some of the counties hardest hit
by poor crons and drouth In meet-
ing and exceeding their quotas are
far outstripping some of thetr
neighbor counties, which have
some war Industries to offset poor
agricultural conditions,” Magee
said.
"This leads me to believe that
pride alotie will cause some of the
j better situated counties to recan-
i vuss and meet the records being
made bv their less fortunate
neighbors. If this Is done we will
exceed our goal by the end of this
week.”
Solicitations Restricted
“We have tried to give everyone
a chance to contribute In the cam-
paign, since almoet every family
has some member or relative in
the armed forces. We may have
not done tills In some counties so
far due to the Inability of business
men and others to give time tq
the campaign thev ordlnartly would
because of manpower shortages."
Tlie state headquarters has In-
formed those counties, which are
lagging in their reports, that some
assistance nmv be given them In
closing their camDalgn. A complete

Straight Night
Heavy Naval Action
Underway in Waters
Near Japanese Base
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS
Heavy rains were reported to
have lallen in Berlin Wednesday
afternoon to help the paralyzed.
Isolated city curb raging fires, but
there were indications this morn-
ing that the relief might have been
short-lived.
Coastal observers during the night
heard another hour-long flight of
heavy bombers drone eastward over
the channel just as they did the
two previous nights when the Ger-
man capital was smashed by the
greatest air raids In history. Con-
tinental radios again shut down
during the night.
A Stockholm dispatch said reports
reaching there told of unbelievable
fires In Berlin. Firemen were help-
less in many sections, the Swedes
heard, because water mains were
shattered. But a providential rain
fell during the day to subdue some
of the fires.
Jap Destroyers Hunk
American light naval forces sank
four Japanese destroyers and dam
aged a fifth during the first hours
of Thanksgiving day In a naval ac-
tion fought for the first time In
waters close to the enemy’s naval
and air fortress of Rabaul.
A sixth destroyer alone escaped
the torpedoes and guns of the Amer-
icans which emerged unscathed from
the second naval battle to be fought
In the northern Solomons.
Intercepting the enemy units oft
I the northwest coast of Invaded
Bougainville shortly after midnight,
the American ships—probably des-
troyers—virtually annihilated the
Japanese after a long, thrilling bat-
tle which ended with the two sur-
viving enemy destroyers fleeing to
the north.
Clone to Jap Air Bases
The action was most.daring for
the Americans, pursuing tlie enemy
to within easy range of Japanese
air cover.
It was eveu more decisive than
the first engagement in which five
of 12 enemy ships were sunk and
four others damaged.
It was the first clash of Ameri-
can and Japanese warships In that
sector since one Nov. 1-2 during
which a cruiser and four enemy
destroyers were sunk while attempt-
itg to strike at the American Bou-
gainville beachhead on Empress Au-
gusta bay. It was the first such
encounter so near to Rabaul.
Torpedoes sank two of the des-
troyers before the enemy units turn-
ed to flee. But two more destroyers
were sunk In the subsequent pur-
suit.
Only One Escapes
Only one Japanese ship escaped
damage. Not an American war-
ship was hit. General Douglas Mac-
Arthur said.
On Empress Augusta, marines and
soldiers extended their Jungle hold-
ings while killing 75 Japanese hi
patrol actions
Headquarters also reported an-
other lit a growing series of ah
blows being rained on Japan's vital
supply ships. An 8.000-ton mer
chantnian was sunk by Liberators
off Hahnahera
That was something tn the nature
of a new target area for the ship-
hunting bombers, being northwest
of the tip of Dutch New Oulnea and
due southeast of Mindanao In the
Philippines. Five direct hits and
several damaging near misses sank
the vessel.
