It looked as though someone had lit a whole boxful of matches and tossed them Into the air. I saw a Messerschmitt 109, its pilot apparently dead, smash head-on into a Fort just ahead and a little below us. An other Fort slid under us blazing like a torch but still firing from all guns."

"ONIY THI HIT MtITi A MOTHIk'l Till" BAKED BY NABISCO NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY By Don C. Wilson Associate Rent Director The landlord's first responsi bility under the Rent Regula tion is the registration of his rental property. This must be done for all living units and each unit must be identified so that an inspector may locate it without difficulty. The land lord is required to complete this registration and file it in his local area office within thirty days from the time of first rent al. Penalties are provided In the Act for failure of the landlord to register. Also, in case the rent director should lower the rent, the cut is retroactive to the time of first rental, or Oc tober 1, 1943, whichever is later. This applies to all rents reg istered now and henceforward. Registrations must be made for housing accommodations just put on the market for the first time, whether they are newly built units or provided through remodeling or division of floor space formerly rented. Variation Illegal The first rent is the Maxi mum Legal Rent until and un less the rent director has occa sion to change the amount of the rental. Any variaion "ex pect to charge less" is illegal, without due process through the local rent control office and an order from the rent director. These registrations when filed in the local office are dated, processed, and stamped and are segregated according to their classification, such as five room house, two room apart ment, etc. Each case is sub mitted to comparison to similar rental units to determine wheth er or not it is In line. The cri terion for final Judgment is similar rentals on the freeze I date, March 1, 1942. In other I words, a new rental must be within a reasonable range of , similar rental! on the freeze date. If from the comparison made In the office the new registra tion appears within a typical range, it is filed and the land lord's and tenant's copies are mailed to them. If it appears higher than the typical range on similar accommodation, lt is set aside for inspection. In Its turn it is checked by a rent In spector and if it still appears too high, a rent director's initi ative proceedings results. The landlord Is notified of this pro ceeding and ii given an oppor tunity to give his objections to the proposal. All these objections must be made In writing and are made a part of the file. The complete file is checked again by the In spector then by an examiner, who finally prepares an iTder with his recommendation for the rent director's signature. The change in rent becomes Romantic Role Ann Savage stars with Tom Neal in the thrilling, romantic story of the Yukon, "Klondike Kate," which opens at the Holly Sunday for three days only.

Later the Pope went to an outer room and greeted mem bers of Clark's party which in cluded high-ranking Fifth army officers and officers of the Al lied military government.

S. S. Henrico, June 6 (U.R) Sheer guts won a foothold on the beach we are at tacking. Leg-weary small boatmen re turning to this amphibious trans port from the first wave are al most reverent in their praise of American infantrymen who charged the beaches in the face of murderous fire. Each coxswain and gunner tells the same story. The first crest rode in a chop py sea without being fired unon. On the beach most of the LCVPs and LCMs. grounded on a sand bar a few feet from shore. GIs removed their rifles from water proof containers and prepared to wade through hin-deen surf. Then the boat ramp went down. The Yanks charged. Met Bullet Stream They were greeted by streams of .50 caliber machlnegun but-1 lets coming from concealed Ger man pillboxes. Coxswain Richard Andrews. 18, HughesviUe, Pa., was at the I tiller of the first LCVP to get back from the initial assault. "Everything was quiet as we approached the shore," he said. "Most of the soldiers thought the beach would be a pushover. My gunners, Lowell Duncan, 18. a seaman 1st class, from Muske gon, Mich., and Fred Backus, 19, Russell, N. Y., yanked down the ramp. The Infantry officer drew his pistol and waved his men af ter him as the first group of men left the boat. The machine guns opened up. They mowed the troops down. Still the men In the boat pressed forward, but the fire dropped them Into the water. We pulled out as fast as we could. I never saw anything like those troops running right Into the face of that fire." One In 98 Survives One of the navy boatmen loud est In his praise of the infantry men was Jerry Dever, SIC, of Tacoma, Wash., a gunner aboard an LCM which hit the beach with 96 soldiers. None of them faltered," De ver said. "They followed their of ficers, shouting as they went, but the fire was too much for them I saw only one man reach shore." The rest of Dever s story was told by Ensign J. L. Sunde, Moorehead, Minn., In command of the boat. Dever," he said, "leaped In to the surf before I could stop him and piled seven wounded men into the craft before the fire forced us to shove off."
