tain'i ancient cathedral town of
Canterbury, sending over 25
planes in three waves.
Several historic buildings
were wrecked (the fate of Can
terbury cathedral itself was not
disclosed), but casualties were
reported unofficially as light
Despite weather unfavorable
to a repetition of mass attacks
last night the British again sent
Hurricane and Boston bombers
over the channel in forays
against airdromes and rail lines
in northern France and Holland,
and other flights winged west
by daylight to continue the bat
tering.
Hlmmlar in Control
An authoritative source said
that immediately after tht Co
logne raid, Heinrich Himmler,
chief of the Gestapo, assumed-
control by decree of Reich Mar
shal Wilhelmn Hermann Goer-
ing of the whole air raid precau-
lion services in Germany. The
services, it was said, will be in
corporated into the German po
lice fore.
Of such magnitude was the
Cologne raid that only a master-
work of organization, with the
bombers over their targets at
six-second intervals, made it
possible.
Its paralyzing might was told
sa astronomical figures:
Of three-fourths of Cologne
afire and under a three-mile-
high pall of smoke.
Of mora than 1,000 bombers
Tearing over their German tar
gets in Cologne, and elsewhere
in the Rhineland and the Ruhr
valley in a 90-minute procession
of death and destruction.
Of perhaps 1,250 planes in all,
Including the bombers' protec
tive fighter escort, in the great
est aerial armada ever put into
the skies at one time.
Of 6,000,000 pounds of bombs
dropped; of twice the number of
planes and four times the weight
of explosive and incendiary
bombs that ever were dumped
on Britain in a single night, even
at the height of the German air
assaults.
Of 6,000 airmen in a single.
intrically coordinated - air at
tack; of 100,000 men in ground
crews at home sending the
planes off from scores of bases.
Even the Germans admitted
"great damage" to Cologne,
their fifth largest city, although
the Berlin radio scoffed at the
British announcement of the
scope of the attack, quoting Nazi
military sources as saying only
"about 70" planes took part.
The British said their losses
were 44 planes, picked off by
S00 anti-aircraft guns and many
night fighter squadrons.
On the basis of British reports
that the RAF used 1,250 planes
in all, this was a loss of less than
four per cent compared with
the 10 per cent generally men
tioned as the maximum losses
nhich still would mark raid
as a success.

THEM I CAN while they are

That is plain human nature,
and human nature has always
been hard to get around.
TTHIS writer Isn't complaining.
In war time, no civilian has
any right to complain, for no mat
ter what the deprivations of
civilian life may be they are In
consequential and insignificant
in comparison with the depriva
tions enforced upon the mem
bers of the armed forces.
But, In the interest of national
efficiency, one can't help wish
ing the people In Washington
would be more DEFINITE about
this tire business that they
would either say to us: "We're
going to requisition your cars
and your tires AT ONCE" or
that they would let it be known
that we are to keep them but
when they are gone we will get
no more; thus putting It up to
us to make them last as long as
possible.
The present uncertainty
could bo accurately termed a
policy to Insure the greatest pos
sible wastages of tires by those
who own them.

The Chinese were able to re

AFL Protests CIO
Use of Klamath
District Title
Possible contention over the

today when tho Lumber and
Sawmill workers (AFL) group
asserted tnat its organization
holds a prior claim to the name
which both the CIO Internatlon-
al Woodworkers of America and
the LSW have been using.
Hugh Haddock, president of
the LbW's district council, said
that his union has registered the
name with both state and coun
ty officials end claimed that It
had first right to the title by
reason of prior usage.
George Brown, district repre
sentative for the IWA, said that
nis union has been using the
name since its inception In the
basin but that as far as he was
concerned it made little dif
ference. Led Marines
