AMSTERDAM, Aug. 24.-4RH
Via Berlin) Germany's iron grip
on Holland frightened another notch
today with announcement that the
high officials formerly appoited
by Queen Wilhelmina henceforth
will be named by Reichs Commits

The German move was the latest

considerable Damage"
An official British announcement
acknowledged considerable damage
from bombs to the Mansion air
drome and said there was lesser
damage from both shells and bombs
in the town of England's hell
corner" across the Dover Straits
from France.
The raiders struck hard all over
southern England, but smashed
particularly at the area of the
Thames estuary, the waterway to
London.
They Numbered first to London's
gates this morning, while hundreds
of thousands Of civilians were 60
ing to work. They were beaten off
only to return again in mid-after-
noon.
( The explosions Of their bombs
could be heard plainly in the city.
Squadron after squadron of British
Spitfire fighter planes went up to
meet them, and the fire of anti
aircraft rose all around the town.
The suburban area bombed was
declared not to have suffered, the
German explosives falling in an
open field.
81 Over RamS1ate
Ramsgate, a modest little seaside
resort town about so miles to the
east, was assaulted by a single
force of 81 bombers, apparently in
their retreat from London. "Some
buildings in the business district,
including a gasworks, were hit there
and an undetermined number of
persons killed or injured.
Considerable DAMAGE to the
Royal Air Force airdrome at Mans
ton, near Ramsgate, was acknowl-
edged by the air ministry, which
declared, however, that during the
day 13 Nazi planes Lad been shot
down. One British plane was
acknowledged lost.
The morning Smelling, the min
istry said, damaged some buildings
at Dover and caused some casual
ties.
One English town was attacked
three times. Fires sprang up after
the first raid and while the towns
people were working to extinguish
them a second wave Of German
bombers appeared and pounded the
area bard. At last, after the town
had been savagely hammered in a
third raid, Spitfires chased the
Nazis off and the residents set up
a cheer.

Radio Amateurs Helping U. S.

the U. S. Secret Service, heard of
Apgar's ingenious arrangement of

In three nights, using Apgar's

high speed signals SO they could
be read, government agents gained
sufficient evidence to close the sta

shipping to German U-boats, and to
intern it's general manager and chief

Anti-fifth column activities of anna

hidden in files of the Federal Blu
