He raised a fine one over Dieppe. Some of the fruits of g raid were sour that but the air marshals parasol was beyond criticism. Besides smoke-screen- s laid and the gun positions knocked out, his bombers and Blenheims and Bostons, his Hurricanes and Spitfires fought so furiously that Nazi plane losses were set at 191, against a British 98.

Centered in Nebraska, the drouth has extended to the Rocky Mountain and western states, where the storage of snowfall for spring and summer irrigation is much less promising than at this time last year. Good rains in the late winter and early spring could largely offset the effects of the drouth. After War . . . New Britain Marines wade through swampland on New Britain front.

Raised on contract to the government, farmers found hemp profitable last year, their net yield per acre being larger than from any other crop in the nation, in some cases reaching $200, it was said. In seeking to relieve a threatened hemp shortage after the outbreak of war, the government undertook construction of processing plants in 42 communities, and arranged for farmers to grow 4,000 acres of the fiber in each of the districts. The plants were erected at an estimated cost of $100,000 each. ash. should fan off the tray it merely drops to the dish instead of on the tablecloth point of view, that the tendency to war is inevitable, just as the human tendency to disease is inevitable, War Production Board Vice Chairman Charles E.

The Reds were reported to have thrown 250,000 men into the battle on a 250 mile front, and units of Russias Baltic fleet stationed near Leningrad were said to have participated in the bombardment of German positions prior to the big push.

At present, Chicago dairies will continue to package the milk in paper containers pending filing of a motion for a state Supreme court rehearing of the case. Since the courts have declared no interest in the sanitary aspects of the question of bottling, but have merely confined themselves to the wording of the city ordinance, a rewriting of the law would permit legal use of paper containers.
