iTEHH QUERY
, Bf The Associated Press
Democratic Chairman Robert
I E. Hannegan, fresh from a talk
S with President Roosevelt, as-
sembled a party committee in
' Chicago today to arrange for
the July 18 Chicago convention
at which the president can have
J another nomination for the tak-
ins.
Whether Hannegan brought
word as to how Mr. Roosevelt
! feels about it was not disclosed,
i He left the White House yes
' terday with a "no comment"
', rejolner to a reporter who in
i quired whether he still sticks
by his recent New York speech
in which he predicted, as a
: matter of personal opinion, that
' the president will accept a
' fourth term nomination.
i Hannegan and the arrange
' m e n t s committeemen busied
1 themselves with selection of a
1 keynote speaker and recommen
dation of a convention chair
man. Governor Robert S. Kerr of
Oklahoma, a fourth-term advo
c a t e, was the apparent pre
meeting favorite for keynoter,
while Hannegan and others
were talked of for the chair
manship. A politician's nightmare con
tinued in the counting of re
turns in Idaho's close race for
the democratic nomination for
the senate with a 14-vote mar
gin separating the leaders.
When 713 of the state s 845
precincts had reported results
of Tuesday's primary, an unof
ficial count showed: Senator D.
Worth Clark 10,004 and Glen
Taylor, former cowboy from
Pocatello, 10,018. .James H.
Hawley, Boise attorney, was
trailing. His latest count show
ed 9046 votes with 70S precincts
in. j
Later returns put Clark back
in the lead by . 10 votes with
715 precincts tabulated. The
see-sawing race indicated that
the official canvass June 24
will be necessary to determine
the winner. .
Gov. C. A- Bottolfsen easily
won the republican nomination
for the . senate post.

YOU'VE noted in the dispatches
the big ruckus over De

You'll be wise if you believe
little or nothing you read or
hear about it, for De Gaulle is
all snarled up in international
politics. The British are sup
posed to be backing him. FDR
Is supposed to be AGAINST him.
So the news about him is too
much mucked up with propa
ganda to be reliable.
DE GAULLE'S story is that as
head of. the French na
tional liberation committee he
is entitled to recognition as head
of the PROVISIONAL govern
ment ot (Tance. our story is
that we want to back NO PRES
ENT French government, leaving
it instead to the French to pick
their OWN government after the
war.
To this insignificant writer it
appears that we might well deal
with De Gaulle NOW and leave
it to the French AFTERWARD
to keep him or throw him out,
as they choose. But that is onlv
the opinion of one small Amer
ican who would like to win the
war first and deal with these
otner problems later.

Details of Boeing B-29
Released After Bombing
By JAMES J. STREBIG
Associated Press Aviation Editor
WASHINGTON, June 15 UV
The army, after tersely announc
ing its mammoth B-29 Super
Fortresses had bombed Japan, to
day uncovered many details of
the world's most talked about air
plane. At the same time, the war de
partment disclosed an equally
spectacular military organization
hitherto unmentioncd the 20th
air force, a oving, earth circling
command headed by Gen. H. H.
Arnold.
The Boeing B-29 and the 20th
air force were made for each oth
er, one a weapon designed to slug
the enemy with unparalleled
reach and power, the other a
military authority to use such a
weapon anywhere in the world
independent of theater comman
ders. Unlike cny other air force, the
20th is responsible only to the
joint chiefs of staff. General Ar
nold heads it as a separate as
signment rather than as part of
ms job as commanding general
of the army air forces. He will
use it as a strategic air force di
rected from Washington. The
chief-of-staff of the 20th air force
is Brig. Gen. H. S. Hansell, dep
uty chief-of-staff of the army air
forces.
Long familiar in only the most
general terms, these details of the
Super-Fortress may now be pub
lished: Its wing span is 141.2 feet, its
length 98 feet. Its height 27 feet.
It has a cylindrical fuselage, a
midwing, a highdorsal fin. tri
cycle landing gear and is all
metal.
Armament includes .50 calibre
machinepuns in power turrets
and a 20 MM cannon. There is
much protective armor.
The power consists of four 18-
cylinder, radial Wright cyclone
engines rated a 2200 horseDOwer
for takeoff. Each engine is
served -by two turbo -super
charges to provide the high alti
tude ODeration desired.
Each engine drives a 161-foot

Coal Is Not Rationed Yet
Last fall and winter, coal and some of the other solid fuels
were rationed.
Due to the foresight of your local fuel dealers, howtver, it
was not necessary here, because we stored large quantities
of. coal and wood, and you bought in the summer time
and filled your own storage bins, too, '
In order io keep the mines producing 100 in Hie summer
lime, when it's hot and even though you don't need fuel,
we art aiking you to cooperate and buy your winter's
coal right now. Cold, stormy weather, when everyone
wants fuel, slows up delivery 100.
Keep warm and comfortable

are connected by reduction gears
so that they turn slower (one
third as fast as the engine) than
any other aircraft propellers.
Crew comforts surpass any
thing in uny previous warplane.
The cabin has been sound-proofed,
seats arc of the latest design,

purpose is increased crew effici

time spent in the air.
Except for a hydraulic booster
on the brakes, the B-29 is en
tirely electric. It has 150 electric
motors of 49 types using power
suppied by auxiliary engines.
V So complex is the plane's oper
ation that a flight engineer con
trols most of the power plant,
the pilot using only the throttle
and his usual flight instruments.
The rudder and ailerons are so
balanced that despite their site
they arc operated without the
aid of boosters, thus Riving the
pilot the "feel" experienced in
smaller aircraft.
