Industrial Center Of Nagoya Fired By Superforts (Continued from Page 1) of flak was attributed to the fact that flumes and smoke probably knocked out ground batteries. The B-20 armada btgHest or the war deluged Nagoya, Jap an's main aircraft manufacturing center and third largest city, with more titan fi00,750 firo bombs at the rate of 40 tons a minute for nearly an hour and a half. A Japanese communique ad mitted tires still were burning five hours after the start of the raid, but insisted that "most" had been quelled. It suld 400 B-29's participated, of which eight had been shot down and nine dam aged. The attack exceeded in weight most raids made by the Ameri can eighth air force and RAF against Germany. It underlined olficial warnings that Japan faced ever greater destruction than the shattered reich unless sh sur rendered. Radio Tokyo said another huge American air armada of nenrly 1,0(10 carrier planes was raiding southern Japan for the second straight day, apparently concen trating on bases from which Jap anese suicide planes have been attacking American shipping off Okinawa, The yellow stain on a smok er's fingers doesn't come from nicotine, but from a distilled ve getable tar.
