Willie London echoed with the roar of bombs and tho staccato bark of anti-aircraft guns, tho red glow of fires in ruined Coventry guided other nazi bombers to new attacks on England's industrial tnidlunds.

Other diplomatic activity centered around Spain and Turkey. Tile high command said "retalia tory attack" on London continued lust iilghl, and hits were scored on trarric points, the Victoria docks and other war essential objectives. A iti.noo-ton merchantman and one of 9.:iilfl tons were reported hit and left "listing" in a bomber attack on u British convoy about 430 miles west of Ireland. Informed German quartern de clared today that the raid on Ham burg will be revenged Just as "Coventry paid" Tor the November S raid on Mamich. The immediate diplomatic project in Berlin was viewed by loreign observers as an effort to drive a wedge between Britain und Turkey. whose friendship British War Min ister Anthony I'den presumably ut tempted lo lighten during his re cent to tile Mediterranean.

The Oak street bridge Is narrow and placed at an angle that creates a material traffic hazzard, It Is claimed. .Many accidents have oc curred nnd one fatality has been recorded. ' Tho league also contends. Jlr. Pargeter reports, that within a short time it will be necessary to provide a span sufficient to carry logging trucks. Construction of roads into the Coast range limber is expected In the neur future to result ill considerable cutting In that urea, and it will be necessary to establish a bridge capable ol handling heavy loads. Tho present structure. It is claimed, is not suf ficiently strong to permit the ope ration of fully loaded logging trucks. Would Start Fund Now The league believes. It is staled, that it will bo necessary to replace the present bridge within a few years and that the county court should creuto a sinking fund to meet the expenditure, rather than to allow all of the expense to come in any one year. In the matter of weed control, the court has placed ihe sum of I5WI in the budget to provide a re volving fund. It Is conlendeil i hat the amount Is not sufficient to pur. chase equipment necessary to curry out a suitable wood control pro. gram and that the Snuu will Im wasted unless nil additional Bum la provided to put the full program Into operation.
