 Another pathetic case is that of a man and wife, with six children resident of Waterbury all, their lives who are now forced to live In one- room cellar because of inability to pay rents elsewhere. As might be expected, the children living m this dank atmosphere have been very six, according to the applicant.

 Mrs. Finkelstein noticed then that the pantry window was tarn- pered with and believed on her first inspection that the thieves were unable to effect an entry but notified police headquarters.
 While going through the bureau in her bedroom, Mrs. Finkelstein discovered the clothing disarranged and rumpled. A hunt in the bureau revealed that her jewelry had been stolen.

| ships with war materials for Russia, close to Japan.
 The newspaper Yomiuri attributed the representations to Japan's posi- tion of strict ntutrality" in the Russo German war.
 (Japan is bound by an alliance to Germany but 1t has a neutrality treaty with Russia. The German alliance binds Japan to aid the Axis powers only if they are alta cked. The Russian pact binds Japan to preserve neutrality if Russia is at tacked.)
 Asahi said that though the volume of American war aid shipments to Russia might, not be particularly large, because larger shipments would be sent via Iran, the outcome of the Japanese representations to America and Russia must be watch ed seriouhly because Japan's pres- tige is involved.
 It said the question was of vital concern" to "the Japanese people" because rejection of the representa- Ntions would mean the transportation obroad Americ can ships close to Japan of American war supplies which are banned to Japan. The official information board declined to admit that Japan had been informed by Russia that any Japanese attempt to interfere with trans-Paciflc shipments to Russia would be regarded as an unfriendly act. Reports abroad of the prompt Russian action in the face of Jap- anese representations were deScrib- ed as premature"
 Commenting On China Commenting on additional evi- dences of United States aid to China columnist in the newspaper Hochi said that ''the United States com pletely seizes Chungking." The Col umnist added that "the American military mission intends to replace Chiang Kai-Shek."
 President Roosevelt appointment of 8 military mission to Chungking was Ian unfriendly act against Japan," a source close to the fore- ign office said today. Japan was not surprised, however, the informant said, because 1t was just another step in American aid to Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek. which has included the sending of aviation and evonomic experts to Chungking.
 He said MT. Roosevelt was incon- sistent in view of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill's refer ence Sunday to efforts to adjust American-Japanese diplomatic rela- tions.

 The drone of planes continued more than two hours. It was be- lieved at least two sweeps of north- ern France had been made. Last night, authoritative sources said, British planes bombed Cologne and other targets in western Germany. The air ministry said seven Brt- tish bombers and four fighters were lost yesterday in extensive daylight attacks against strongly protected conveys off the Frisian Islands and the Dutch coast, and against air. ports near Cherbourg and St. Omer. In spite of the heavy defensive fire, the British planes sank two ships and set others afire, the ministry said.
 Last night British raiders were back over the French coast, scat- terlng bombs bstween Boulogne, Calais and Cap Gris Neg. German anti-aircraft guns put up a terrific barrage. Watchers along the chan mel witnessed one tremendous ex- plosion between Boulogne and Cape Griz Neg they believed was either an extremely havy bomb or the ex- plosion of an ammunition dump. At the height of the raid all the Ger man guns between Boulogne and Calais seemed to be in action. Orders by British Vichy, Aug.

 The Djibouti radio described the British demand on the colony as an ultimatum. The Djibouti governor was said to have offered the Bri- tish an agreement under which they could use the Djibouti-Addis- Ababa railroad.

 More Developments
 Meanwhile, the governments program for aiding nations resist ing Axis aggression produced these developments:
 IA military mission will leave within the next fortnight for China to coordinate iend-lease aid to that country and to study the Chinese Japanese military situation.
 2-President Roosevelt denied that the. British were misrsing lend-lease aid from the United States and characterized such al- legations as half truths or false hoods designed to sabotage the program to smash Hitlerism.
 3-Sen. Harry F. Byrd, D., Va, said that at his request for full accounting" a report covering all lend-lease operations up to Sept. 1 will be made to congress.
 The President said the military mission will "study, in collabora- tion with Chinese and other au- thorities, the military situation in China, the need of the Chinese government for material and ma teriaIs; formulate recommendations regarding types and quantities of items needed; assist in procure ment in this country and in de. livery in China of such material and materials; instruct in the use and maintenance of articles thus provided; and give advice and sug- gestions of appropriate character toward making lend-lease assistance to China as effective as possible in the interest of the United States, of China. and of the world effort in resistance to moVements of con- quest by force"

Labor Board Orders
Must Be Specific,
High Court Rules
Justices NuIIify Port
OF Findings in Texas
Newspaper Case

The National Labor Relations
Board today was on notice to confne
orders to specific issues, as the result
of Supreme Court decision yester-
day nullifying part of a board order
directing the Express Publishing Co.
of San Antonio, Tex, broadly to
cease and deSist' from interfering
with the rights of its employees under
the Wagner Act.
The court, in a So decision, how
ever, upheld an order for the COM
pany to cease and desist from "in
any manner interfering with the
efforts" of the San Antonio News
paper Guild to bargain with it, and
speaking for the majority, Justice
Stone warned that "since we are in
a field where subtleties of conduct
may play no small part, it is appro-
pirate to add that an order of the
board. like an injunction of a court,
is not to be evaded by indirections
or formal obServances which in fact
defy it."
The effect of the boards original
order, Justice Stone noted, would be
to make the employer "for the
indefinite future conduct his labor
relations at the peril of a summons
for contempt" if the board should
charge that he dismissed an employe
for union activity or committed some
other breach of the law separate
from the specific point of the
original prosecution-alleged inter-
ference with the unions bargaining
efforts.
Justices Douglas, Black and Reed
contended that the boards order
should be enforced in full. Their
dissenting opinion, written by Justice
Douglas, contended that it was not
up to the courts to determine
whether the remedy chosen by the
board was reasonably necessary" and
that ito cut down the language of
this order not only substitutes our
Judgment for that of the board; 1t
will also result in the creation of
a host of uncertainties.

Flying Fortresses,
Derided in Europe,
Now Eagerly Sought
Germany and Britain
Strive to Produce
Long-Ronge Bomber Type
Nv JOSEPH 6. EDGERTON.

Failure of Germany and Great
Britain to follow the United States
leadership in the development and
construction of long-range, heavy,
four -engined bombardment air.
planes now is conceded by both
belligerents to be one of the most
serious errors in their plans for
aerial warfare and both are striving
frantically to make good critical
shortages of bombers of the flying
fortress" type, according to qualified
observers.
United States orders for four
engined bombers, still remaining un-
filled, nave neared the $400, 600, 900
mark and the production of these
major air units now is nearing q
maximum anticipated rate which is
withheld as military secret. Ar
rangements already have been COM
pleted for delivery to England Of
46 Of the big four-engined land
planes and the first of them has
reached Canada en- route to the
war zone under its own power.
Had either of the belligerents had
even a score of the big four -engined
oombers in operation earlier in the
war, results of the air war to date
might nave been considerably diff
ferent, in the opinion Of observers
here. and the presence of a force
of these ships on either side today
might even have decisive results in
the spread of the war into the
Balkans and Eastern Mediterranean
area.
Spares Back Areas
Lack of long-range bombers has
saved vital back areas" of both
warning powers from heavy attacks
to date and has made it possible
for Germany to transfer vital pro-
duction activities into former
Czecho-Siovakian and Polish ter
ritory, out of reach of British air
raids, except for two daring "hit
and run" raids on the Skoda works.
Both Germany and England now
are completing the development of
four-engined bombers, test models
of which have been flown on both
sides. and it is understood that
both helligerents are nearing actual
production of such bombers in
quantity.
When the United States pioneered
the flying fortress" type nearly 10
years ago, the project was ridiculed
in Europe, where is was held that
such aircraft were so costly, so
vulnerable and so unwieldly that
they would be Of no value in war.
The present European war, how
ever, mas spread far beyond the
range of the smaller two-engined
