Aircraft of the fighter command on intruder patrols during the night attacked road and rail communications and enemy air bases in northern France and Belgium, it was announced. Fighter command planes al- loosed floods in Ihe Ruhr and Weser Valleys. II was the RAF's sixth successive night foray over the continent and followed powerful thrusts by American airmen who dumped 500 tons of bombs on three important targets on the French coast. Sweeping out in force, U. S.

heavy and medium bombers attacked Lorienl and (he adjacenl U-boat base at Keroman yesterday, leaving tho whole waterfront pock-marked wJth bomb bursts, while another force roered southward to Bordeaux in the longest raid made by American bombers from British base. Four cngined Liberators carried out the raid on Bordeaux, wingin some MO miles to the attack, exceeding the mileage covered by American airmen in lasl Friday's Kiel raid. Returning crews reported "very good bombing results" on all three targets. Meanwhile reconnaissance reports indicated thai the daring raid by picked Lancaster crews assigned to attack and breach two of Germany's largest dams Sunday night had attained the goal of "doing as much damage as could be done by thousands of Ions of bombs dropped on many nights running" on the usual objeclivcs. A Mammoth wall of waler swept down inlo Ihe highly industrialized Ruhr valley, silo of some of Adolf Hitler's most needed war plants, from tho blasled wall of Ihc Mohnc dam.

Farther lo Ihc east, the Edor ate Finance committee, and Doughlon (D-NCt of the House Ways and Means Committee described the Ruml plan as "highly inequitable." "I am said, "so that they still stood behind Lewis and their demands for $2 a day wage raise, portal lo portal pay and other concessions in any new contract. that you may know my views and in the hope that a bill may be worked out in conference that I can sign. I believe there should be substantial adjustments to ease this transition (lo pay-as-you-go). But there arc limits beyond which cannot go." The president did nol say direcl- ly he would veto Ihe modifeid Ruml bill, bul his loller was so interpreted on Capitol Hill. Some Republicans pointed out, however, thai Mr.

Roosevell said he could "nol acquiesce" and Ihis slill left open a possibility he might let such a bill become law without his signature, in order, to gel the withholding levy Which the Ireas- ury strongly desires. George, predicting the president would be sustained by Congress in any veto of the skip-a-year bill, said it was unnecessary and unwise to write off a whole year's Only 64 dam. backing up 202,000,000 tons of water and characterized by the air ministry as the largest dam in all Germany, spilled terrific quantities of water through at least two uncontrollable braches into the Wcscr valley, drowning out Nazi war plants and disrupting water borne traffic. Significance was placed in the president's statement that "substantial adjustments" were necessary to facilitate the transition to pay-as-you-go, this being taken as presidential approval for liberal abatement, but not to the extent proposed by Bcardsley Ruml, New York banker. Mr.

Roosevelt told Congress the "cancellation of a whole year's taxes would result in a highly inequitable distribution of the cost of war and in an unjust and discriminatory enrichment of thousands of taxpayers in the upper income groups." Emphasis was "placed also in congressional circles to a part of Republican Leader Martin's statement, in which he indicated his party would oppose future increases in income tax rates.

"We thought we heard airplane motors in the darkness but the pilot (of the ship who was on the same raft) said it was diesel engines. Then we saw a couple of lights close by and knew it must be the submarine. "During daylight Friday we saw seven airplanes, one big ship at a distance and we sent up rockets but they went unnoticed. "The next afternoon we hoard an airplane and sent up rockets. It flew over us and within ten minutes an Allied ship picked us all up."

Asserting an invasion now of con linental Europe would be tantamount to "almost mass suicide," Chandler said that if Japan is to dig in and strengthen "it will be too late to act." "I say that we'd better whip the Japs now while we have the Al lies than try to when we may have none later on," he shouted.

The moonlight- channel battle RIALTO Starts Today Don Joan Ameche Bennett in 'Girl Trouble' and Gene Tierney in Thunderbirds' NEW SAENGER Jones Named Chairman of Food Group Hot May 18 1 Judge Marvin Jones, head of Ihe Uniled Slales delegation, was nominated by unanimous vote of the Steering Committee today lo be permanent chairman of the United Nations Food Conference opening tonight. The nomination must be ratified by the conference ilself. Jones hail been designated temporary chairman by President Roosevelt. Jones, who for many years was head of the Agriculture Committee of the House of Representatives, would direct as chairman the efforts of the conference to find ways of making food an instrument for the peacetime construction of a healthier world. The Steering Committee selected English as the language of the conference.

French, Belgian, Lux- embourgian and Haitian representatives asked, however, thai this not be regarded as a precedent. French usually has been the language of international meetings. The committee also adopted a motion thai the conference corn- was the finishing bttack of a fight started in daylight yesterday with hits on escorl crafl and supply ships by Beaufighlers. A Canadian squadron then atlacked with torpedoes. The ships hil by torpedoes were described as large merchanlmen.

Two coaslal command planes, two fighters and one bomber were reported missing from the night's operations. During the night, enemy planes again struck at London. At least ten persons were known lo have been killed. A Welsh town, identified by the German radio as Cardiff, underwent one of the worst raids since 1941. By noon the bodies of several dead had been recovered, and rescuers said il was believed that at least 20 still were buried in wreckage.

The Allied aerial offensive reached new heights Sunday night as British raiders breached two of the Reich's largest dams and The verdicl is expecled today on a Republican motion thai Ihe House recede from ils own pay-as- you-go bill and accepl the Senate's full-year abatemenl measure. Raburn said he expecled Ihe House would vote to send the issue to a conference with the Senate in an effort to work out a Compromise. In that event, the fate of pay-as-you-go legislation apparently would rest on three possibilities: 1. A compromise abating 75 pel- cent or more of the $10,000,00,0000 in taxes assessed agajjjst 1942 income, and encompassing a 20 per cent withholding levy against Ihe taxable portions of wages and salaries. 2.

Agreement on a simple withholding levy, without any tax abatemenl, and with the 44,000,000 taxpayers continuing to remil on their year's income, instead of paying currently, as proposed in bolh Senale and House bills. 3. An absolule deadlock. The House approved measure, which emerged afler a four-months batlle over Ihe Ruml plan, would cancel out 75 per cent of 1942 laxes, by abating the 6 per cenl normal and 13 per cent first bracket surtax on last year's income of all taxpayers. It would erase the 1942 liabilities complelely for aboul 90 per cenl of laxpayers and reduce others substantially.

It embraces a 20 per cenl withholding levy. Mr. Roosevelt's letter to Chairmen George (D-Ga.) of the Sen- WLB to (Continued From Page One) lectvie bargaining conference. It was Ickes' plea thai brought the truce extension. The WLB lias taken the position, however, thai Ickes has no authorily to iniliale ov con- duel such conferences and implied thai il would quit if Ihe by passed it to deal wilh Lewis.

From highly placed came reports thai Ickes had pro pared a formula which he believec would be acceptable to bolh sides and was ready lo propose il, pro viding the board would let him step in. Bui Ihe board was said be slicking to the stand expressed by Wayne Morse, a public repre sentative, who said "the opera lion of the mines under the cus tody of Ihe Department of the In terior, through ils chief, Mr. Icke does not have any bearing upo Ihe dispule." Ickes' office still said the WLB "has jurisdiction," but il was indicated the secrelary was seeking some means of holding conferences belween Ihe mniers and operators. Some members of Ihe board were reported ready to resign if Lewis who has charged the WLB wilh prejudice were permitted to by pass the board, through in-- lervenlion of Ickes or anyone else. It was in response to Ickes' wire for assurance thai there would be no walkout that Lewis message last night from New York thai "we are requesting our membership to continue at work under the exisling relroaclive exlension agreement until midnighl May 31."

The Navy told of he destruction of six Japanese ships, including a destroyer, by American subs in the Pacific. In the Senate, Chandler said his jrevious appeal for a full assault the Pcaific had been made "on my own hook," and added: "I wouldn't have done it again but I was encouraged 1o make the speech and I know now our boys want it thai way." Senatorial reaction noled parli- cularly the inference with some observers speculating on the possibility that the request to knock Japan out of the war first was inspired by United Stales mililary leaders. Senator Holmans (Ore.) said he was salisfied thai Chandler had been in touch with the top War stralegisls. Others voiced similar opinions.

Beth was being accused. "I haven't seen it, Major," she said, seriously and somewhat tensely, reverting to the official address in her own concern over the situation. "I haven't been away trom my desk since I sat down to work this morning, and no one but you has been in here with me." Brit studied her face a moment. "You're sure?" he asked. "You're absolutely sure?" "To be exact," Beth answered, "I did leave the office on two occasions.

Both times I placed every paper on top of this desk in the safe and locked it. I am positive no paper escaped me." "It's incredible," Brit said. "There's only one thing I can suggest," said Beth. "Someone got into the safe and took the directive before the papers were removed this morning, or it was taken during one of my absences." "Impossible." "All right, it's impossible." Beth looked Brit straight in the eye. "You to do a little detective work while I was here." "I didn't say exactly that.

I think I said that treachery from within was suspected, and you were to help me prevent it." "In this case, Major, it sums itself up to the same thing. Will you give me permission to offer an opinion?" T5RIT smiled, but it was no smile of mirth. In it there was weariness and some desperation. "Go ahead. Only if I don't think it's good, I'll do what I'm thinking of doing search everyone and everything until that directive is found." "That's a very poor idea.

It would be better to permit no one to leave this island or communicate with anyone off the island until the directive is found." Brit narrowed his eyes. "I think I know what you're hinting at." "I'm hinting at nothing specifically. That is a good general procedure, regardless of who is here." She paused. She decided she might as well say it. "Since you brought up the subject, Lita Dan- "Brit, you're a major and my commanding oilicer, and I'm a third officer and not supposed to be giving orders.

But if I were in command here, regardless of whether I suspected anyone particularly, I'd put into effect that order I suggested a little while ago and I'd order very especially that the Danton-Moth plane should not be allowed to She swallowed hard. RIT looked at his watch. Then he gathered up all the papers. Beth's notes included, and put them into the safe. "Be sure the doors are closed," he said to her.

She made certain. He motioned her to his side. In a whisper, he said, "I'm changing the combination. Listen closely." It was difficult to memorize the new combination. Here was proof that he still trusted her.

After supper, Beth took a walk. While she was strolling on the far side of the cove, she made her decision. She would do some sleuthing on her own. She could see the seaplane which' carried Lita Danton and Rick Moth riding on the water a couple of hundred yards away. Belli turned back and, strolling, retraced her steps until she entered the bower which covered the path.

Then she moved swiftly off along a side path which led around the cove. In a few minutes she was on a small, foliage-hidden knoll quality means everythi In ton and Rick Moth How would Brit take this?
