WASHINGTON, Aug. 19—(/Pi-
Some government officials ex-
pressed hope today that new op-
portunities for the miners to fat-
ten their pay envelopes on the
one hand, and stiff penalties for
striking on the other, may prove
to be the pattern for averting
another coal strike.
Higher earnings will be pos-
sible for most miners when Sec-
retary Ickes lengthens the pro-
ductive shift from seven to eight
hours soon. While the miners
will have to work longer to
increase their pay, they will re-
ceive, nevertheless, time and a
half for the eighth hour.
Penalties will strike at the

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN THE SOUTHWEST
PACIFIC, Aug. 19-(AP)—The Japanese have been

attempt to retake Vella Lavella Island in the Central
Solomons, occupied only 75 or more men each and a screen-
A fighters Tuesday and Wednesday. I coastal waters
last Sunday by American
invasion forces.
A spokesman at headquarters of
Admiral William F. Halsey, Jr.’s
south Pacific command said that
hundreds of bare-borne Japanese
troops were killed or captured
during a frustrated landing at-
tempt in the early morning hours
of Tuesday. The thrust thus
came a bare 48 hours after the
American amphibious units land-
ed unopposed on this northerly
island of the New Georgia group.
Few Japs Survive
Of an c.-; (mated 1,500 to 2,200
troops in the enemy counter-in-
vasion force, not more than 300
succeeded in reaching the island.
And while there has been no
ground action as yet, the spokes-
man said “unquestionably there
are small groups” of the enemy
roaming Vella Lavella.
The landing attempt was re-
pelled by a light U. S. task force
which intercepted between 20 to
30 Japanese barges packed with
ing force of four destroyers.
In the engagement that follow-
ed. Allied headquarters announced
that cnc Japanese destroyer prob-
ably was sunk, another severely
damaged and a third was hit.
American warships routed the en-
emy destroyers which turned for
home bases and then wiped out
most of the barges. A few barges
escaped to make landings on the
northeast coast. The Allied com-
munique announcing the victory
also disclosed that a small U.
S. cargo shin was sunk on the
same day by enemy aircraft.
Staggering Air Blows
On the left wing of the Al-
lied offensive in the south Pac-
ific, Japan's hour of reckoning
in northeastern New Guinea was
brought much nearer by airblows
too staggering to permit early
recovery.
At Wewak, a once potent force
of 225 planes was reduced to
an impotent 10 in two spectac-
ular raids by our bombers and
Japanese fliers and ground crew-
men killed exceeded 1,500.
Down the coast 350 miles, the
