Maybe one of the things those post-war auto designers should consider is having animal quarters in the car. I’ve just read about two accidents, one of which was caused by a mouse running up the steering wheel, and the other by a kitten jumping on the same apparatus.

Of course, accidents like that are bad enough, but imagine what could have happened if that mouse and that kitten had been riding in the same car!

It isn’t hard to understand how mice get in cars these days. The cars stand in garages so long without gas that I suppose the mice think they’re old houses. And I guess that the kittens go into the cars looking for the mice.

My goodness, before I take the ear out, I’d better get some cheese and catnip.

La garnison japonaise d’Okinawa est sommée de se rendre

Le général Buckner a adressé un ultimatum aux derniers défenseurs de l’île d’Okinawa qui se trouvent encerclés dans la partie Sud. Malgré la sommation de capituler, les Japonais continuent le combat.

Le communiqué du G.Q.G. du général MacArthur ne fait pas allusion aux nouveaux débarquements à Bornéo, mais il signale la poursuite des opérations de l’aviation et des torpilleurs alliés au large de l’île.

À Luçon, ajoute le communiqué, les Américains ont pris Santa Ines, à l’est de Manille, et ont consolidé leurs positions dans la vallée de Cagayan, dans le Nord. À Mindanao, ils ont pris la ville de Jassa.
