But .little has been written about the bases and the men doing the job. Now, for the f irst time. Wide World News man Don Whitehead brings you a real, vivid picture of the scenes of their activities.) By DON WHITEHEAD AN AIR BASE SOMEWHERE IN CANADA, Aug. 13 (Wide World) Traffic is getting heavy on the highroad to Britain. Across 2000 miles of foggy North Atlantic, the bombers from American factories are thundering into airdromes in England in growing numbers. The big parade of air power is on the wing. But England is just a stopping off place. Those big babies go ing across were built for attack and not defense. T.hey aren't spanning the Atlantic just to give the crews a joy ride. And it's almost all one-day traffic to the east. Air Chief Marshal Sir Fred erick Bowhill runs this show like a veteran ringmaster keep ing a three-ring circus moving smoothly. His job is one of the most vital in the United Nations scheme of smothering the axis under clouds of planes. To the Front He must see to it that the ships get to the fighting fronts. His command extends to Britain, In dia, Africa, South America and Australia. Just how many bombers are going across is a tight secret of the Royal Air Force ferry com mand but let me tell you .what I have seen at this huge air field from which the bombers take off day after day in thund ering herds. Row on row of American made giants and their smaller kin their aluminum skins daub ed with grey-green war paint are getting a final tuneup and check before taking off. They look grim and deadly. The only bright colors are the red, whits and blue insignias of the RAF and the U. S. army. There are the huge Boeing Flying Fortresses, Consolidated Liberators Sir Frederick says the Liberator is "a ship without a vice" Lockheed Hudsons and other medium bombers includ ing the high-tailed B29 in which Jimmy Doollttle and his boys bombed Tokyo. EVERY SATURDAY NITE Mmlo or OREGON HILL BILLIES KEN Olene Mr. and Mrs. Faith Grimes left Tuesday by car for Port land for an indefinite stay. They took their little daughter. Sue Ann to the Doernbecher hospital for observation. ILttla Sue Ann has been ill for some time. Word received from Lieut. Oliver Kinney Jr, in a letter to his cousin Donna Kinney, states that he is now in the Hawaiian islands. Mrs. George Anderson of Lakcvicw is at the Fred Reiling home. She expects to remain un til Mrs. Reiling's health inv proves. Mrs. Anderson is Mrs Retlins's mother and a former resident of Olene. The A. L. Marshalls have re cently heard from their son-in law and daughter. Lieut, and Mrs. Roland Sturman, that they are still in Olympla, Wash. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wlck- lar.der were dinner guests st thcJ Rex High home in Poe valley on Tuesday evening. Mr. Wick lander is state grange deputy. There were six members of Lost River grange in attendance at Pomona, which was held Sat urday at Midland. Malm and Poe Valley were hosts for the day. There was a good showing of eraneers. considering that this is a busy time for the farm ers and the scarcity of farm help. Mr. and Mrs. O. L. Brown and Mr. and Mrs. Basil Brown and son Barton attended the picnic by executives of the Rodeo asso ciation at the Matthews cabin. Mrs. O. L. Brown, Mrs. Henry Grimes and Mrs. Marion Barnes spent Tuesday in Klamath Falls. The subject of a second front seems to inspire our best sec- ond guessers. It's a big show at this west ern terminal on the highroad to Britain and it' getting big ger. Sir Frederick, the boys will tell you, is doing himself quite a job, and he's leaning heavily on American civilian pilots to get the job done. Lady Bowhill is working un der her husband's command as a flight officer in the women's auxiliary air force which she joined in England two years ago. She has about a score of WAAF's under her direction. Once a navy man, Sir Fred erick won't enter any public arguments about sea power ver sus air power. He sees final victory in the coordinated ef forts of the land, sea and air forces of the United Nations. That's why he is getting the bombers to the other side. "Undoubtedly the heavy raids on German cities are affecting civilian morale and Industrial output," he told me, "but wheth er anyone can claim that air power will be the final blow, for victory is beyond the capacity of anyone to answer. Let's wait and see." Bismarck His knowledge of ships and the men who go down to sea helped Britain win one of her most important sea battles of the war the destruction of the German battleship Bismarck. That's a story he is reticent about telling, but It was he who I was responsible for sending the American-built Catalina flying boat to hunt down the Bis marck and lead British naval units to the kill. Sir Frederick was in command of the RAF coastal command at the time the news was received that the Bismarck was on the loose after sinking the Hood. He figured the raider could do one of three things: backtrack to the safety of a German port, proceed to its previously deter mined rendezvous, or flee to the shelter of the Biscay forts. "I decided it would be the Biscay forts," Sir Frederick said. "There the ship could be repaired under cover of its own air protection. So I laid my plans according ly and estimated the position where the Bismarck might be located. That's where the Cat alina found her." These scrap drives haven't been very thorough. That chap next door still has his saxo phone. The victim never returns to haunt me. I never think of him. Tonl Jo Henry, girl slayer, condemned to electric chair. GALA SHOWS IFRI.

Price Ceiling Hits Skyrocket Tuna Prices ASTORIA, Ore., Aug. 13 lP) The skyrocketing price of Alba core tuna flattened out against a price ceiling today. The office of price administra tion brought the price to fisher men down from the all-time local high of $415 a ton to $308 and a maximum selling price of can ned tuna was fixed at $16 a case. . Ceilings were imposed at a conference attended yesterday by Edmund Maher, regional price director of the OPA's food section, and Lawrence H. Smith of the Portland office. The $308 limitation must be observed to permit packers their cost margin while selling canned tuna at $16 a case, Maher said. Mahcr said the $308 a ton price in excessive "but it repre sents the best figure applicable to the situation that has devel oped in wholesale bidding for the product." The average price last year was $285.
