Boys Trained in Michigan Industry
 Heb to Put China Back on Her Feet

DEARBORN, Mich.-A hundred young Chinese students who re- ceived a technical education a few years ago in Henry Ford's automobile plants today are using this training to help put China back on her industrial feet. The Ford-trained youths have become first Heutenants to Rewi Alley, the New Zealander who originated the unique idea of vest pocket industries to revive a nation left helpless by military invasion.
 Equipped with a mechanical, engineering and administrative knowledge acquired in the Ford school system, the students started working with Alley in 1888 to put across the system of Chinese Industrial Cooperatives. At last count, these small "guer- rilla" industries numbered 5000 units, producing 100 different items ranging from shoes to chemicals. M
 hUan f-cl LAu, AoihiCi Oi VI SSu- dent and now general secretary of GIG at Chungking, China, com anunicated recently with Ford off, cials, explaining the important part his fellow students are play ing in the cooperatives.
 Most of our key men are Ford men," he said. "All over China you will find Ford-trained men making use of their training. Most of them are on the road in technical work, some of them occupy high administrative positions"
 Liu explained that the boys were sent to Michigan from China for training between 1922 and 193O through the efforts of Joseph Bailie, a Californian who was in China building roads. Feeling the Chinese youth needed greater technical skill, he arranged with Henry Ford for the training of 100 students in the Ford plant.
 While the young Chinese stu lents were in Michigan, they called themselves the "Bailie-Ford

The long awaited spring drive ap- pears to be becoming a reality with both the German and British forces opening up last night in what were described today as the heaviest raids both over England and Scot land and over the German held French coast and Germany's most vital shipping port of Hamburg.
 The RAF left fires. visible for miles as an aftermath of eoncentra- ted bombing on the important Ger man city and although the Air Min istry simply announced the bomb ing as successful" it was reported from reliable sources that Hamburg was left practically devastated. Channel ports along the German oc- cupied French coast also came in for attack. The noise of bomb ex- plosions was plainly audible at Do- yer and pillars of black smoke was left in the wake of RAF bombing planes as they returned to their bases in England gave evidence that much damage was done there as well.
 Glasgow bore the brunt of Ger man assaults last night. Glasgow is the center of Great Britain's great ship building and shipping indus tries and suffered under rain of high explosive bombs dropped on the city and docks.
