Latest reports said the Americans Ameri-cans had nailed down both sides of the road, but violent fighting continued in the hills, where a ceaseless rain of blows and counter-blows were falling.

SOUTH PACIFIC FORCES (U.R) (Delayed) An American force brought In by cruisers .and destroyers under the protection of Flying Fortresses, occupied Funafuti Atoll in the Ellice islands is-lands today, flanking the enemy's eastern bastions in the Gilberts only 400 miles away. I watched the unopposed action from one of the Fortresses. It moved with clock-like precision. The occupation of the Funafuti group of about 30 islands was planned as an offensive thrust beating the Japanese to the islands is-lands and setting up what might be used as a springboard for a future offensive. The forces stationed sta-tioned there also will protect the U. S. supply lines to the south and" southwest Pacific. Warships were able to .leave ahead of schedule after putting ashore "the landing forces with all necessary supplies and equipment, including anti-aircraft funs, land batteries and small weapons.

However, sightseeing at famed "Temple Square" here, the home of the accoustically-perfect Mormon Mor-mon tabernacle and its giant organ, has shown a 20 per cent gain in tourists this, year over last year. But most of them Have been soldiers or war-workers recently re-cently transferred to this area or passing through on their way to new assignments. During the first three months of this year there were 50,248 visitors to Temple Square, compared com-pared with 43,117 a year ago. In early 1938, there were only 9,100 sightseers escorted through the square by Mormon temple-mission temple-mission workers.
