U. P. President Gives Vuitee
Workers Messages From
Air Commanders at Front.
San Diego, Cal., Sept. 20 (U.R)
American planes are helping
to forge a chain of invincible air
power that is linking Hitler to
his doom, V. S. air commanders
abroad said in special messages
to Hugh Baitlie, president of the
United Press, who disclosed
their contents today in an, ad
dress to 80,000 consolidated
Vuitee aircraft workers here.
Baillie, just back from a trip
to England, North Africa and
Sicily, spoke to the workers who
make the Liberator bomber that
is playing an active part in the
aerial assault against the Axis.
Reason for Pride
One message from MaJ. Gen.
Ira C. Eaker, commander of the
U. S. eight air force in England,
said: ,
"You who build these great
battleships of the air will have
(D ems
lou've been told, of course,
that this will win the war, and
' that will win the war. But
nothing, sir, is likely to con
tribute more toward victory
than trinitrotoluene, which
chemists have given the pet
name of CH3C6H2(N02)3,
and the rest of us have nick
named TNT.
TNT, the explosive, is nitrated
toluene, Since 1915, Standard
ot California has been making
, toluene from petroleum. So far
as we can learn, this Company
is its first commercial producer.
Back at the start of World War
J, we knew so colossally little
about it that the price was $16
gallon. Production finally beat
the price down to $2. But, by
then, we were shipping a whole
carload a month.'
- That first plant faded with
. the war. But another plant is
now finished and shipments are
being made. It takes advantage
of studies which Standard's sci
entists have been carrying on
since 1938. We'd like you to
know that every patent involved
has been made available to the
entire industry. '
' Many things about our new
toluene production we mustn't
tell you. Yet you're entitled to
know that with new "savvy"
and new facilities Standard of,
California, the pioneer, is now
turning out the backbone of
TNT at a rate that makes
World War I's carload a month
seem just a fly-speck on ancient
history. -

many occasions to be even more
proud of -your-part in sending
them into the air. Wingtip to
wingtip with the Flying Fort
resses, Thunderbolts and Ma
rauders, the Liberators are help
ing us to force a chain of invin
cible air power that is linking
Hitler to his doom."
Brig. Gen. Victor H. Strahm,
chief of staff of the ninth U. S.
air force with headquarters in
Cairo, said in his special mes
sage to Baillie: .
"To my mind there has been
no weapon available to our
force in this war of which we
can be more proud than our con
solidated built Liberators. From
desert bases of the U. S. ninth
air force here in the middle east
they nave struck at the enemy
first, along the north African
coastline where they disrupted
communications and supply
lines and later on the European
mainland where Axis port and
rail facilities and airdromes felt
the devastating weight of their
attack."

tory Loan drive were boosted t"

This county's allotment from
the state amounted to $270,000
Mr. Frey stated. The state pur
chased $6,500,000 in war bonds
for the present campaign and al
lotted them t counties on the
basis of population, it was ex
plained. Most of the corporation
purchases had previously been
announced but had not .been in
cluded In daily sales fiures since
many are in the nature of al
lotments from national firms.
Mr. Frey declared that the
next 10 days of the campaign
would have V see every citizen
doing his utmost in the drive
since most of the large sales
have now been made and the
remaining $1.084486 of the quo
ta must now be made up almost
entirely from small sales.
. Sales at the auction at Cen
tral Point Saturday night added
$14,775 to the quota. The auc

sitting of commons the date

reasons and is expected to deal
with the decisions reached at the
Quebec conference, the surren
der of Italy and the success of
the air war.
Some Criticism
Though Churchill's personal
popularity is not far below the
high reached at the successful
conclusion ot the Tunisian cam
paign, there has been criticism
of his government in connection
with the allies' failure to seize
Benito Mussolini and their al
leged slowness in consolidating
their position in Italy.
Churchill, his wife and daugh
ter Mary arrived in London last
night by train on the final leg of
the return Journey from a five
week stay in the United States
and Canada, highlighted by the
Quebeo' conference.
Cheered On Arrival
Thousands cheered as Chur
chill stepped from the special
train. He acknowledged . the
greeting by giving the "V" sign
with his upraised hand, then
drove with bis family to 10
Downing street. - -
Though Churchill declined to
speak to newsmen, Information
Minister Brendan Bracken said
the prime minister had a splen
did trip home and never had
been in finer fettle. Churchill
worked en route home, partly
on his commons speech but
much more on "other matters"
Bracken said.
Churchill returned from the
United States aboard the British
battleship Renown and landed
at a. northwest British port, it
was revealed.
