It was a 21-year-old Texan, "Bud" Cardinal of Fort Worth, speaking and Bud ought to know, for he was one of the first RAF airmen to fly over the now-ruined German Rhineland city in Saturday night's raid. "You had to line up as though it was a movie," he elaborated.

"We went in plane by plane and when the boys really got swinging you couldn't see the explosions of the bombs because the fire down there was so big." Bud, who came out of Texas to join what he called "The Royal Texas Air Force" in Canada, was among the British, Scotch, Australian, Canadian and Barbadoes airmen who wheeled the big bombers over Cologne and its industrial environs. "Jock," a 19-year-old Scotch veteran Cologne was his 18th big raid said the huge Hohenzollern bridge across the Rhine "must have been blown to bits; nothing could stand in what we gave them." All the pilots agreed that the RAF tactic of sending in bombers to drop incendiaries first had outlined the targets in flames and made the job easier for those who came later with the 3,000 tons of explosive. "There's a guy named Charley Honychurch from Brooklyn who was in on the raid," said Cardinal. "He isn't around just now but he says his ship came in slow, let go, then turned off. He said the bursting bombs looked like about a thousand big guns firing.

Honychurch formerly was an engineer for a Bridgeport, hotel, explained Cardinal. "Don't ask me what they wanted an engineer for in a hotel," he said. "All I know is he's nuts about the Brooklyn Dodgers. If I've heard about Whit Wyatt once, I've heard about him a hundred times." Honychurch attended Erasmus high and Brooklyn college. Cardinal, who was a second string guard at Southern Methodist university in 1938-39, took this correspondent over to meet Leonard Johnson, 28, of Corpus Christi, another "Royal Texas" airman but a disappoitned one.

Even before introductions, Johnson said sourly: "Don't ask me, I never reached Cologne. One of my mcAors conked out and I Jiad to turn back. A hell of a note; I've been over five times on big raids but I missed the brass ring." "Don't worry, you'll get a crack," Cardinal said. Johnson brightened and agreed: "Yeah, we'll be going back and with just as many if not more." "Look, you know when Commander Harris said a thousand bombers a night would knock the Germans out of the war," Johnson went on. "Well, tell 'em at home that's right "Tell 'em to send some stuff, real stuff over here and we'll knock these Krauts off the map." Both Cardinal and Johnson agreed that "the British are good." 'They get you down some time because they're so anxious to be correct," said Johnson.

"But after the way they organized this raid and carried it out, I take off my hat to them." "They got guts, too," Cardinal put in. "Though they do not go around hollering about it.

Dares Japs To Invade Australia Prime Minister Curtin Finds Situation So Improved He Hurls Defiant Challenge To Enemy; Airmen Raid Three Jap Bases Without Loss Of Single Plane (3v The Associated Press) Melbourne, Australia, June Heartened by the growing strength of the United Nations forces on Australian soil, Prime Minister John Curtin today shed nis char. acteristic caution and dared the japajese t6 try an invasion of the commonwealth. Launch Liberty Loan Drive defy the enemy t0 land large forces in Australia," he said in a speech wnich iaunched Australia's gecond Liberty loan. The goal is S11, Annmn- the first was 140,000. "The enemy is being desperately driven to shortages in essential supplies which show themselves more directly in the forces of the Axis powers than is the case with the forces of the United Nations.

"And thus time runs against the Axis in every theater Curtin spoke in the face of good k.J Search For Mothership Early Wednesday the war correspondent of the Sydney Herald, reporting from "somewhere in Australia," said "Reconnaissance aircraft and bombers manned by Australian and American crews are participating in the- wide search for the mothership which is believed to have brought the three Japanese submarines within several hundred miles of Sydney. "Catalina flying boats which can stay in the air for at least 24 hours are ranging far and wide over the Coral sea and their work is being supplemented by Lock-, heed Hudsons," he reported. Curtin spoke of the Japanese thrusts against Australia and declared the initiative no longer "was so decisively" with the enemy. "The thrusts the enemy made at our soil were repulsed," he said. "The enemy had come with bombing planes and inflicted damage, but was driven off with losses.

The enemy had sought to come here with immense naval strength to establish a spearhead, but he found his most southerly venture beyond his capacity to execute." CITED FOB HEROISM Somewhere In Australia, June 2 JP. Private William E. Brown, 25, of Blackfoot, Idaho, was commended today by his superior offi chine-gun bullet through his leg Saturday night. We didn't know about it until he collapsed getting out of the plane. "The British learned this business the hard way and the right way.

And say, these mass raids are the thing. "Those Krauts didn't know what to do the other night. Fighters and flaks all fired wild. If we keep rollin and our air force comes in we'll end this war sooner than you think." "That'll please Honychurch," Johnson commented. "Then he can get home to Brooklyn for the World, series." The' ground crews which prepared the "big kites" for the raid confessed today they didn't know where they were going.

It was only when the planes began dropping upon their fields that they learned of the magnitude of the assault upon Cologne and "Happy Valley," as the Ruhr is known to British airmen. These men who get the planes ready worked 48 hours almost, without pause over the week-end. "We worked all day Saturday, saw the planes off and as soon as they came back we worked until they were ready again," said one officer. Here is a story of a little Polish pilot hero and his British plane or what's left of it: The Pole, with four other members of his crew wounded and unconscious, brought back his shattered Wellington "Wimpy" from the 4-figure raid on the Rhineland. The plane is in the repair shop and they're trying to figure out how it got home without a landing 'gear and with bomb doors still open.

"Wimpy" squatted in the hangar in battered glory. Her interior was caked with blood, great tufts of grass clung to her scarred belly from her pancake landing and there was a hole in her fuselage the size of homeplate. But she's there. In the rear gun-turret there was a hole you could put your foot through. A cannon shell from a Nazi fighter had taken off the rear gunner's foot.

But he managed to keep alive and, with tracer bullets streaming at him, he managed to return the fire. I looked through the hole in the fuselage. There was a long trail of blood along the deck. "This chap evidently tried to crawl back to the radio and resume his job," said a British pilot. "Rather good show, that." There were 17 bullet holes in the front turret, six separate cannon shell holes in the underside of the fuselage.

The Polish pilot grinned when I asked him about it. "I don't speak much English," he said. "But these men are so good. When they are hit they keep still. When I tell them I will get them back one of them says 'Hear, Hear' just like they do at public speakings.

"We get home all right but I can not get my wheels down to land. I got over the airfield once, twice and I hear them groaning back there. "Then I say 'Okay Butch and I bring her in. God He is at our right hand, I know." We walked out into the sunlight. As far as I could see huge four-motored bombers slumbered in the sun.

Far out, a large flock of Spitfires went bunting. airplane. "But 1500 feet was chosen as the bombing altitude," he said, "the lowest from which we could bomb and still enjoy comparative safety from our own bomb frag- ments.

"He's a great guy," one of them told a newsman.

Fighting To Free Italy, Says Aeheson Washingtog, June 2. CP) The United States is not fighting the Italian people, Assistant Secretary of State Dean Aeheson told an Italian-American rally here tonight, but aims to liberate them from the dictatorial regime of Benito Mussolini. "The people of Italy have been dragged into this war against all their true instincts and interest, by the blind ambition of one man, and a small clique of adventurers and Quislings," he said. Waliy DlSnOp By naa reriious i rip Battered For 5 Days And Nights In-Light Of Arctic's Midnight Sun By U-Boats And Nazi Planes; British And U. S.

Ships Reach Russian Port With Loss Of But Six Vessels (By The Associated Press) London, June 2. Battered for five days and nights in the Strange, unending light of the Arctic's midnight sun by ilrboats and at least 100 German planes, a big U. S.British supply convoy was disclosed today to have reached a Russian port with an indicated loss of but half a dozen ships. The result was announced by the admiralty in a communique which gave a graphic picture of the perils of the Arctic convoy route to Murmansk and Archangel, where there never, at this time of year, is any protecting darkness and where the breaking of the Arctic ice restricts maneuverability of ships to a minimum. German claims to the sinking of 17 or 18 ships were termed "an exaggeration of over 175 per cent." German dive bombers, torpedo-planes and level-flying bombers assaulted the convoy almost without pause from the evening of May 25 until May 30.

Three of the attacking planes were reported shot dovn for sure, two others probably were destroyed and two others damaged. One Heinkel, the admiralty disclosed was destroyed by a Hurricane fighter catapulted from a specially-fitted merchantman. In such cases, it was explained, the catapulted plane must land in the sea when its flying endurance is exhausted, and the pilots must take their chances of being picked up. This time the British flier, Pilot Officer Alastair Hay, was picked up wounded by a British warship. The admiralty paid unusual tribute to "the gallant defense and magnificent handling of the heavily laden ships in the convoy" and to the skillful work of the Navy.

It added: "Officers and crews of both the convoy and the escorts have the satisfaction of knowing that they have delivered large and important reinforcements to Russia's equipment in her present struggle." Post-War Problems Vnder Discussion London, June 2, (JP) Far-reaching discussions of post-war problems are in progress among Britain, the United States, Russia and the rest of the United Nations, but the time is not yet ripe for a declaration of policy, the government announced today. U. S. Seizes 600 More Foreign-Held Patents Washington, June 2. UP) Valuable patents covering cargo-hauling airplanes, held by the Junkers company of Germany, were seized today in a group of 600 German and Italian-owned patents, many of which were said to be of "immediate importance to the war effort." Other patents covered radio, television and aircraft instruments.

About 3,000 patents already have been taken over by Crowley. Earlier acquisitions included synthetic rubber and magnesium processes. cer for two striking instances of heroism. Brown's flight captain, Capt. E.

W. (Jack) Bleasdale, said the soldier, a radioman, on two consecutive high altitude missions above 20,000 feet discarded his cxygen mask at great risk to help his comrades. "This member of my crew displayed personal heroism, the like of which I have never seen -before," said Bleasdale. "On our first mission we were using oxygen when attacked by Japanese Zeros whose machine-gun fire tore through the tail of the plane and wounded our two side gunners, Sgt. John Potters and Private Jim Shipley.

"Brown, knowing that without oxygen they couldn't remain conscious more than five seconds, took off his own mask, lifted and dragged them 20 feet to the oxygen supply and provided them with oxygen. They were unable to operate the oxygen controls themselves and owe their lives to Brown. "Two days later on a mission above 20,000 feet when Lowry, our new side gunner, collapsed, Brown informed me over the radiophone. I warned him about the danger of taking off his mask. But he went straight to Lowry, traded masks and carried Lowry to the radio compartment.

"Brown administered artificial respiration to Lowry for two hours, then to other members of the crew for another two hours until we landed." Lowry, however, failed to survive. Brown was in the hospital for two weeks. Remember Pearl Harbor! Buy War Stamps and Bonds Now! POND: AW ON, MUGGS I THAT TORTLE WONT ft Arthur Beaverson, 1 1S4 North West street, who wlis inducted into military training at New Cumberland Reception Center last Thursday.

He is a son of Mrs. Clara Beaverson, formerly of York, and the late Albert J. Beaverson. RAF RAIDS (Continued from First Page) soon shall be, by the air force of the United States. "As the year advances all German cities, harbors and centers of war production will be subjected to an ordeal the like of which never has been experienced by any country in continuity, severity or magnitude." Assault On Ruhr The communique of the Air Ministry identified the industrial Ruhr generally, "including Essen," as the theater of the assault and while the Germans d' not mention Essen they did report Duis-berg and Oberhausen as among those raided.

With Essen itself, these cities form a great production triangle in the Ruhr. While the main force of the British attack was being centered in the Essen area, other squadrons smashed at the enemy's airdromes over great areas of Germany, France and the low countries to pin down his fighter plane defense. All was conducted on a pattern of the closest cooperation and the British losses of 35 planes were light against the vast scope of the operation. (The German accounts put British losses at 59 planes yesterday and through last night.) While much remained to be learned of the effect of these assaults, all available information indicated that they spread the sort of devastation which earlier had left Cologne a smoking ruin. The Nazi high command, describing RAF assaults as "terror attacks directed against the civilian population," announced that its own bombers overnight had attacked the historic British cities of Canterbury and Ipswich.

MaL- Careful Search Although the RAF lost 35 planes on the overnight foray, the bombers which raidfti Essen shot down a ME-109, a Focke-Wulf 190 and sent a Me-110 down with its port engine in flames when German night fighters tried to bar the way to the Ruhr. Air ministry accounts of the Essen', raid said that low clouds and ground haze forced the pilots to make a careful search for the targets. Nevertheless, the pilot of a Lancaster four-motored bomber who spent 37 minutes over his ob-jecitve said "the streets marked dark lines" in the flaming center of Essen. With typical British understatement he added: "widespread damage had been done." Luck was good to the Canadians on the raid. Two of three RCAF squadrons which attacked Essen had no casualties at all.

Pilot Officer Homer Forbes, a Canadian on his 18th flight over Germany, said both the Rhine-land and Ruhr defenses seemed slim to him and that "Jerry seems to have fallen down on his job this week-end." A Halifax bomber piloted by Flight Sergeant W. E. N. Field of Montreal got its only opposition on the way home. Four times, Messerschmitts took up the chase but four times they were evaded.

Discussing future raids, London sources said the main weight of the summer attack probably would be directed at western Germany, but that as the nights lengthen the edge of the devested area will creep eastward to include German, cities and towns now relatively undamaged.
