Williams FUNERAL HOME Healthfully Air-Conditioned 119-114 West Main Street PLYMOUTE, PENNA, GIVES COST OF INVASION SHIPS Gamble Shows Where Some Bond Money Goes Washington, June 2 (AP) ships that took part in the initial invasion of Okinawa cost about 800,000,000, Announcing this today, the Navy said almost $1,000,000,000 more was spent for airplanes, consumable supplies, equipment for the ships and the marine landing forces, and for the training of personnel taking part in the action. The bill to the Navy alone of nearly $8,800,000,000 was more than twice as the Navy spent in World War I. It does not count any Army expenses in the Okinawa fighting. The estimates were in a report to the Treasury from the Secretary of the Navy. Red R.

Gamble, director of the Treasury's War Finance Division, cited them as another example of "where your bond money goes." The entire quota for individual bond-buyers in the 7th War Loan Drive is less than it cost to build the ships attacking Okinawa alone. The Navy spokesman said in his message: "A single major amphibious operation today requires hundreds of naval vessels battleships, cruisers, aircraft carriers, destroyers and many types of auxiliary and landing craft. There must be hundreds of planes to provide the air cover essential to success. "To fight these ships and planes there must be thousands of highlytrained men. Not to speak of the cost in casualties, the cost in dollars staggers the imagination." Food Men Might Go To The Pacific Washington, June 2-(P)-Civilian food experts soon may be moving in the wake of battle in the Pacific to speed the return to crop production, particularly world-scarce sugar.

Rep. Anderson (D-NM), confirmed yesterday as secretary of agriculture, recommended to PresiTruman during a White House conference that food men be sent into Pacific invasions with the Army to hasten soil rehabilitation when the shooting stops. "All the Pacific islands clear to the China coast are potential sugar producers, and we're not getting it," Anderson told a reported after the conference. "I recommended that some machinery be set up so that we can realize the full food possibilities of any area liberated."

RUSSIAN FIRM IN STAND ON VETO CONTROLS Attitude Stated In New Note Soviet Enters Syrian Situation San Francisco, June 2-(AP) Russia is standing firm on a rigid interpretation of Big-Five veto controls over United Nations machinery designed to keep world peace. Ambassador Andrei Gromyko, Soviet, note on delegation the chief, Russian handed attitude a last night to Secretary of State Stettinius and the chiefs of the British, French and Chinese delegations at the United Nations conference. Contents of the note were not immediately made known outside the top, official circle of the BigFive. It was learned today that when Gromyko rapidly summarized its contents others present gathered that Moscow firmly opposes any relaxation of the veto power and may be objecting even to receipt of a complaint by the Security Council of the projected world organization except when there unanimous agreement among the big powers. The veto power stands as an overriding right of any of the Big Five nations to forbid any decisive step it may disapprove.

While this appeared to intensify differences among the Big Five over how the veto should be appliedBritain pressed for a less rigid interpretation went ahead nevertheless with plans for trying to speed the conference to conclusion early this month. It was agreed tentatively that the should meet at. least once a day on until the log-jam of 'conference committee -which been blocked principally by the veto issue-is completely broken and all remaining problems are cleared up. In line with this schedule the Big-Five were called to another meeting at Stettinius' penthouse headquarters today. The first committee complete its assigned task was one charged with drafting the preamble, purposes and principles of the projected world organization.

Under the committee statement, armed force could only be used by any member nation in accordance with United Nations principles for international peace and security. "All members of the organization," the draft says, "shall settle their international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security are not endangered." Wants Syrian Trouble Ended The text of this document, destined for inclusion in the peace charter after going through other committees to the full conference, became known as Russia entered the situation in Syria with a strong note to France and the other Allies calling for "speedy measures" to end the trouble which has caused bloodshed in the Levant. "Events in Syria and Moscow declared "do respond to the aims of the United Nations conference taking place in San Francisco, for creation of an organization to insure peace and security." The Syrian crisis is a prime subject of conference interest because it is type of situation with which the projected United Nations League doubtless would have to deal in future years.

STRAFE AT A LOW LEVEL Flying At 65 Feet Considered 'Way Up There' Army Airbase, Philippines, May 22 -How low is low when a Mitchell bomber crosses a target on a low-level strafing mission? The first time Lt. Lester Morton, Abelene, went out he was told to "stay the deck. It's safer there." He crossed the target at something under 65 feet. When he returned to base the squadron leader demanded: "What were you doing 'way up there?" Mitchells discovered long ago that lack of altitude aids safety in crossing a heavily gunned target for strafing.

Ground guns cannot stay on a plane doing 280 miles hour at 25 feet. At 100 feet they get a longer period of effective fire. At 200 it increases. "As a matter of fact," Morton said, "at 200 feet you'd be lucky to get through while at 25 you'd be unlucky to get hit at all." Result, the Mitchells practically plow furrows over targets, zooming tude- coming over even down 80 trees again unnecessary and quickly. buildings, a feet-is Altidangerous.

Fortunately, a Mitchell can stand a lot of beating. While strafing an Indo--China airfield recently Morton's plane hit a tree with the edge of the left wing and wrinkled the undersurface. The top of the tree came off cleanly and the plane did not lose appreciable flying speed. First Lt. R.

"Of course the German state and German people should suffer and will suffer the political and material consequences of Hitler's aggression and the Hitlerite system of military gansterism," Trainin wrote, those actual persons who committed crimes are responsible for the crimes of the war." Foreign observers here regarded the article as vitally significant in appraising the entire Russian attitude toward Germany.

Trainin said the war criminals as such would fall into two groups: who upset relations between peoples, the planners of intrigue and aggression, organizers of fifth columns and acts of terror for the purpose of stirring up international conflicts. who carried out murder of peaceful citizens, the slaughter and torture war prisoners, and the organizers slave labor. The foremost of the guilty, he said, are Hitler, Heinrich Himmler, Joseph Goebbels, Reichsmarshal Goering, Franz von Papen, Alfred Rosenberg and Robert Ley; Hitler's proteges in various localities, the leaders of the Fascist parties, the supreme military. command, the Gestapo and stormtroopers.
