ALLIES DRIVE
GERMANS OUT
OF LOUVAIN
COUNTER ATTACK OFFSETS
NAZI GAINS MADE LAST
NIGHT; HITLER EXPECTS
VICTORY IN SEVEN DAYS

LONDON, May 16.-Late dis
patches today gave evidence of
a turn in the tide to the advant-
age of the Allies. 1t was report
ed that several British divisions.
operating behind mechanical
units, had been successful in
driving large Nazi concentrations
out OF Louvain, which had been
captured last night.
This information, and the
knowledge that the strong Bel
gian fortress at Liege had not yet
fallen, gave hope to the Allied
supporters that the Nazi blitz-
krieg may not be successful inSo-
far as present detectives are con-
cerned.
German brOadcaSts maintained
today that their operations were
entirely satisfactory and that the
German high command expected
the outcome of the war to be
settled in the next seven days.
This was interpreted here to
mean that the NaziS expected to
conquer all of Belgium and move
up to main Maginot Line fortifi-
cations by the expiration of that
time, after which would come the
larger scale total war" against
France and England, presumably
from the air.
Battles were raging today
along the 200-mile front, with
upwards of 100000 men en-
gagged on both sides. The Allies
admitted that the situation at
Sedan, where the Germans have
crossed the Meuse river on a six
mile front, was serious, although
not of critical portent. .-~j
Nazi troops, freed from the
Holland conquest, were rushing
across that country to join the
Nazi drive against Belgian
second-line defense troops. To
meet this added threat, the Allies
were moving up division after di-
vision to help the Belgians, ex-
horted yesterday by King Leo
pold to hold out to the last man
against the enemy.

President Presents National
Defense Measure To Congress
ASKS FOR FUND TOTAL
LING OVER BILLION;
WANTS $4,000 PLANES
YEARLY
tBy AsavcIa .ed PressD


WASHINGTON. May is. -
Highlighting President Roose-
velfs National Defense speech
made before the joint session of
Congress this afternoon, was the
demand that $4,000 airplanes be
provided the navy and army with
all possible speed. and that the
United States. thereby. challenge
the air-supremacY of the world
in preparedness for any even
iualiiY.
The President spoke before d
packed gallery. which loudly
cheered at several points in his
speech, especially in response to
several points made calling for
increase of national defenscs.
These are ominous times
Roosevelt stated to begin his
speech, days of swift and shock
ing developments. Our oceans
no longer can be considered as
bulwarks against foreign agrees
sion, he continued, as forerun-
ner statements asking for huge
defense program.
The demand for $4,000 air
planes, on a program to provide
that number eacn year, would
not. the President stated, inter-
fere with shipments to foreign
countries.
Additional appropriations, over
and above all present sums pro-
vided for, totalled 1896, 100000,
the President describing the need
of this amount for an expansion
in the army, navy and marines.
In addition to that figure, addi-
tional sums for anti-aircraft de-
fenses. airbases and personnel,
totalling S2O0,O00,000 was asked
Concluding his speech, Presi-
dent stated that he joined the
whole nation in praying and
hoping for peace. But, he
stated, at the same time the
United States must undertake a
program of adequate prepared
ness-to prepare for any even
tuality He asked for a united
America" and trust in Cod, as
the concluding sentence.
Calling attention, in one part
of his speech, to the need for a
continuous defense fund, PreSi-
dent Roosevelt focused attention
on changing times in warfare.
Modern ideas bring need for
modern equipment, both in Of
Tense and defense to counterfeit
new inventions.
Comment in this city, imme-
diately following the speech was
to the effect that the demands
today, totalling over a billion
dollars, were the forerunner of
more appropriations to be asked
for in the near future.

THERE'S drama for your camera
in this seasons football activi-
tics-and, strangely enough, some
of the finest, most striking foot
ball action pictures are the {. est
to take.
Naturally, you'll take your NJ
era to the games, so as to get a
record of what happened. But for
really dramatic shots, the place to
go is the practice sessions, where
you'll be more free to move about,
and can get closer to the players.
If you have a fine camera with
fast lens and speedy shutter, of
course you can shoot genuine rapid
action - such as in the picture
above. That leap would call for a
shutter speed of at least 1900 Sec
ond-if you caught the player at the
peak-and preferably 1/400 or / 900,
to be really on the safe side.
But, even if your shutter is too
slow for such shooting, don't feel

handicapped. In leisure moments
during practice, or after the ses-
sion, most players will be glad to
pose for you as if in action. And
action poses can be surprisingly
realistic.
Here are two hints. First, keep
the camera near the ground, tilted
slightly upward. This low position
makes the figures tower dramati-
cally-and also yields good sky
background. Second, use color
filter if you possibly can. A medium
yellow filter will be best-it gives
good tone quality to the sky, brings
out whatever clouds there are, and
the exposure, increase required is
very slight.
See if you can't build up good
album of striking football shots this
season. Gridiron shooting makes a
splendid camera specialty-and the
pictures are distinctly out of the
routine snapshot" class.

People of the North Valley

saw two road graders on the
north road.
Many of them fell out OF
their chairs and two women
tainted. One passed out when
she saw the first grader and
the other when she saw the

They are asking that the road
be graded oftener, so that the
people of the valley will not be
