Allen, Jr. 1 1 United Press Correspondent ; Salem, Ore,, July 28 (U.R) Fear that many high school stu dents, who for the first time have money in their pockets and many good jobs available, will not return to school In the fall, has been expressed by members of the state depart--rnent of public instruction. i The high school enrollment "of the country has dropped one jmllllon since 1940, and the fltrend Is still toward decreased I attendance. With work on the farms go ing begging, and with shortages fof manpower In both war and ,1 non-essential activities, prob ably more Oregon young peo ple are employed this summer 5 than ever before, It has been es timated by Miss Joy Hills, of the department of Instruction. Many of them are working in Mobs which do not contribute J, either to the war effort nor to their own development, ahe said. ,, . Dangerous Condition i This is a dangerous condition, ln Miss Hills' opinion. A great J effort will be needed to per t suade these young people that it their own best interests will be : served by continuing their ed ucation, now, when they have their best chance. How to do that? s "Every leader of young peo- pies' groups and those who are interested in the education of I; youth should encourage Oregon 'boys and girls of high school f age to continue in high school :l u n 1 1 1 they complete their I courses, either in full time or in liwell planned school work pro grams", she said. ,! The question must be asked ijthvn, Miss Hills stated, whether ilor not they could not get ahead 'I faster if they knew how to '! count better, writ better, plan NAZI LADY PILOT USED IN TESTING better? The war manpower commis sion stated that "the first re sponsibility and obligation of youth under eighteen, even in ,! wartime, is to take full advan tage of their educational oppor tunities in order to prepare themselves for war and post-war services and for the duties of citizenship. In most cases . youth under eighteen can best ! contribute to the war program -;by continuing in school and Jwhen their services are re squired by accepting vacation : and part-time employment."

During the early trials, Berlin said, the bombs tended to lose their wings after a short flight, and It was therefore decided to clear the explosives compart ment and let a test pilot fly with one. "Frau Reisch was chosen," the broadcast said, "because she had extraordinary physiological characteristics. She is insensible to pressure. She Is a biological phenomenon and has reached over 500 miles an hour when diving gliders." The broadcast said she flew in a specially built robot, with out instruments but with emer gency landing gears. "She made the flight in a nearly horizontal position, gaz ing through a periscope," the radio continued. "After four days, the trouble was found, but Frau Reisch was seriously in jured."

London, July 27 U.R Dutch aunrters said today that recent large-scale German construction on the hook of Holland was be lieved to be launching sites for a new and larger flying bomb capable of bombarding England's industrial midlands 250 miles away.

German Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels has been warning of a new German robot plane the ' V-2 which would carry a greater load of explo sives longer distances than the V-l, with which the Germans have been attacking southern England during recent weeks. Dutch officials learned that within the last few weeks all shipping, including eyen small fishing vessels, has been banned from the hook of Holland area, where large scale German con struction was proceeding at top speed during April and May. In those months the Nazis con scripted almost every ablebodled man from 18 to 55 in Rotterdam to work on a mysterious project.

He holds the Dis tinguished Flying Cross and Air Medal. , Capt. Anning stated that much of his flying had been quite routine and had included many trips to drop supplies and ammunition to Chinese troops in cities besieged by the Jap anese. In spite of the fact that the Chinese lack equipment and materials, the taking of each town and city is so stubbornly resisted that the Japanese pro gress is extremely slow, he stat ed. Chinese Amaze The aviator commented on the fact that the Chinese accom plish an amazing amount with out machinery or equipment, building roads, big landing fields and doing many tasks entirely by hand. He said the aspects of the war in China were now rap idly changing, due largely to the arrival of equipment, and war supplies In larger quantities. Capt. Anning wears an inter esting silver ring bearing a carved tiger's head, the ring having been presented to every man in his squadron by the "Great Tiger", the Chinese gen eral, Chih Chow, for the squad ron's unusual accomplishments during the campaign of Tung Ting lake last year.
