On the 8th army front to tne east a patrol probing the area around Chuffiano likewise was unable to contact the enemy. By Rear Adm. George F. Hussey Chief, Navy Bureau 01 Ordnance ' (Written for United Press) Washington. Jan. 27 U.PJ In the triphibious war we are wag ing, the rocket is proving a tac tical weapon of immense and in- - creasing value. While rockets will not dis place guns In the foreseeable future, their performance in ac ton has demonstrated their su periority over traditional pro jectiles in certain phases of mil itary operations, and their po tentialities for additional uses are considerable. They deserve, and are receiving, increased operational and developmental attention. Navy Up Production The navy considers rockets so essential to the success of forthcoming operations that it Is calling for a 300 per cent In crease in their production dur ing the next few months. Pro duction in the last quarter of 1945 will exceed 600 per cent of the production in the fourth quarter of 1944. The 1945 rock et production schedule is a $1, 000,000,000 program. This in volves vastly increased require ments for steel, manufacturing manpower, assembly and load ing facilities. Now in production by the navy's bureau of ordnance are seven main calibers of rockets. They are of three general types aircraft, barrage, and special purpose. New ones, under de velopment, will be in produc tion soon. Rockets of greater saliber and accuracy will be available in the near future to bite into enemy defenses. In general, rockets will parallel projectile calibers and bombs of substantial size. Keep Other Weapons . This does not mean that rock- . ets will take the place of other weapons to any substantial de gree. Their role in modern war fare is more properly to com plement, to deliver the punch in circumstances which limit the effectiveness of other forms , of firepower. Both rockets -and' guns have the same purpose to smash the enemy his ships, tanks, instal lations or personnel by deliv ering a projectile on the target Ich has its limitations of range, accuracy, velocity and rate of fire, and each has its advantages in military operations. A gun can hurl its projectile with greater velocity, at a speed of nearly 3,000 feet per second. Its limitations are those of range, and heavy recoil, which requ;res a heavy, relatively complicated and expensive mount structure. A rocket does not'impart a great velocity to its projectile, but its launching de , vice is light, simple and inex- pensive and there is no sub stantial recoil. This is of obvi ous advantage particularly in increasing aviation firepower. No present day airplane can mount a five-inch gun but planes are carrying five-inch rockets and can. carry larger ones. BANDIT CAPTURED; KIDNAPPED COP TO Because electricity In the five Pacific northwest states is gen erated mainly in hydraulic plants there will be no "brown out" in this area, according to telegraphic advice received Sat urday from Rep.

Wash., Jan. 27 (U.R) A bandit kidnapped a Spokane police officer from a prowl car this afternoon and forced him to be an unwilling accomplice to an uncusseccfu) $1,200 cigar store holduD. "This is a stick-up," Prowl Car Officer W. C. Schubbe kept whispering to bystanders, but they, seeing Scubbe's uniform, thought he was kidding. Schubbe wasn't kidding. His own revolver was being pointed at him from underneath the ban dit's coat. W. C. Cannon, a clerk in the store, also knew it was no joke. He had read the bandit's note demanding money or "someone will get hurt." As Mrs. P. M. Jacoy, wife of the ' manager, was scooping $1,200 into a sack provided by the bandit, Cannon slugged the man from behind with a milk bottle. Schubbe dived for his gun and the bandit fired two shots. One of them struck Alice Goldsby, 20, a store waitress, but she was not seriously hurt. Schubbe, Cannon and the now- alerted bystanders overpowered the bandit, who was booked for robbery as John James Bullard, an ex-convict from Walla Walla penitentiary. Schubbe said the bandit jumped aboard his prowl car and used a concealed beer bot tle "gun" to obtain Schubbe's revolver. Then he forced the officer to drive him to the cigar store and enter beside him. Sugar Stamp Book 4, Valid After Feb. 1 Washington, Jan. 27 (UP.)
