June 5. fJP) Recent RAF raids on Duisburg and nearby concentrated manufacturing districts of the Western Ruhr caused "overwhelming industrial damage" the Air Ministry news service declared Saturday on the basis of photographs from five reconnaissance flights. The report was from the attack May 12 and the warm-up raid of April 26.

In the May attack, four plants of the August Thyssen-Vereingte Stahlwerke one of the largest steel combines in the world were damaged. Extensive wreckage also was reported in the largest tar distillation plant in Germany. A i ft i S. 3 44 coke and benzol purifying plant was put out of action. Dozens of p.

If other war factories in Duisburg and other smaller surrounding towns were damaged. The report said nearly the whole commercial and administrative center of Duisburg was in ruins with more than 600 buildings, mostly of the large "city block" type, destroyed or damaged. One area of devastation was reported to cover 48 acres. One reason for slackening antiaircraft fire was shown in the pictures which detailed hits on four flak positions. Great damage was reported at the docks and railway marshalling yards at Duisburg-Ruhrort, the largest inland port in the world.

Where the Ruhr River joins the Rhine, "the damage done must cause a great dislocation and delay which will affect the railway and river communications over hundreds of miles," the news service said.

Chapman tells you this: "We believe we have, from practical operations, the largest poultry plant of any agricultural college in the United States." At wholesale prices, the plant has produced poultry and eggs worth nearly $200,000 in the fiscal year ending June 30. This includes 180,000 dozen eggs and pounds of dressed poultry. This year a modern killing and dressing plant, with a capacity of 2.000 chickens daily, has been added. we have trained in short courses in addition to our regular university students in agriculture and home economics more than 300 persons who are now in charge of community food preservation plants in Georgia and other Southern States" M. D.

Mobley. State director of vocational education, sums up the program thus: "No matter where you live in Georgia, you're just about within ten miles of a food preservation plant." To hich. Chapman adds: "Because of the advantages this plan offers, as compared with all others. Fedsral government agencies are now promoting the establishment of such plants throughout the nation. Government bulletins are being written about Georgia's food plants.

Second unique fact is the college's food preservation plant. "Georgia ranks first among States of the nation in community food preservation. We have more than 500 plants now in operation in Georgia: no other State has hall( so many," says Chapman by way of leading up to what the university is, and has been doing.

"Georgia was selected as the place for this meeting," Chapman said, "for the reason that we have pioneered in this method of preserving foods for home use." Not only has the community canning plant program been extended to rural areas. Thousands of victory gardeners in town and city are actively planning to utilize the plants.

The school has just completed an $8,500 unit to its present quick freezing plant. The war has cut deeply into Ag Hill's personnel, with 85 per cent of the faculty lost to armed services and war industries in the last two years, but business continues apace. For instance, where men almost solely took courses in community food now women fill the ranks. Dean Chapman estimates that of the 500 plants in the State, a good half now are run by women trained on Ag Hill. Chapman was Georgia State supervisor of agricultural education in 1920, State director of vocational education from 1926 to 1934, then became dean on Ag Hill.

What he likes about Ag Hill's program most of all is that "this is the story of what we've already done and have been doing since the war emergency started. It's not what is projected for some future time." 4 k'-w turn itf i i ii ii niiuirnfiiMnriiiin "'ift-r p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.
