ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 27.-A large,
varicolored ball of fire sped from
east to west across the Northern

William H. Tracy, United States
meteorologist stationed at Syracuse,
said persons who saw the phenom-

One viewed it as a bright blue flash
that exploded into dark red glow.
The meteor was seen widely in
Central and Northern New York at
approximately 7:3O pm, but it also
was reported sighted as far south as
Philadelphia. In Rochester, some

Army Will Promote
Officers 10 CoIoneIs
On Selection Basis
Seniority Rules Dropped
In Choice of Men
For Temporary Rank

Rules of seniority governing pro-
motions in the Army to the grade OF
colonel are to be thrown into the
discard for the emergency, the War
Department said today. in an
nouncing that the extensive field
maneuvers this summer will be used
to test the efficiency and leadership
qualities of officers under simulated
war conditions
In selecting those for promotion,
obviously great weight will be given
to character and leadership" the
announcement said Physical and
mental vigor will be essential quail
tiles in determining selections for
command duty. General efficiency
and age will. of course, be con-
Sidered"
Promotions to the grade of gen.
eral officer, either temporary or
permanent, are made now solely on
the basis of selection. This has been
especially true in the selections of
new divisional commanders since
the emergency mobilization of the
Army started
Permanent Promotions UNCHANGED.
Promotions to grades below that
of general officer heretofore have
been based on seniority or length of
service. While the department does
not intend to seek change at this
time in methods of making perma-
nent promotions, it was explained,
it has decided that future tempo
rary promotions to the grade of
colonel in the Regular service will
be determined hereafter on the basis
of selection.
The system may eventually lead
to the extension of the policy of
selection for temporary promotion
to all grades and in all components
during the present emergency" the
War Department said. Army Off
cials said the maneuvers scheduled
for this summer will provide "an
unusual opportunity for officers to
demonstrate qualities of leadership
under field conditions"

LONDON, May 3.-German raid
ers, showering bombs by the thou
sands, battered the vast Merseyside
industrial and shipping center of
Liverpool last night and early today
in the severest attack there in
months-an attack from which cas-
ualties and destruction were feared
heavy.
The Luftwaffe struck, too, along
the east coast, smashing dwellings
and taking lives in an East Anglian
town, but Liverpool for the second
successive night was target No. l.
At the same time, British bombers
were reported to have dumped eX-
plosives onto the big North German
port of Hamburg and other targets
in Northwestern Germany. dis

and huge fires in industrial areas
and around the docks, an authori-

Other planes attacked Emden and
oil stores at Rotterdam, in the
German-occupied Netherlands, this
source added.
During daylight yesterday two
Nazi-controlled supply ships of about
500 tons were attacked off the Dutch
coast, he said, and one was set afire
and the other was believed sunk.
-Four British planes were reported
missing.
Attack Lasts Several Hours.
The Nazi attack along the dock
lined Mersey River was heavy and
lasted several hours" a terse COM
munique said. 1t added:
EARLY reports suggest that the
number of casualties may be large
and that substantial amount of
damage was done"
The Germans touched off the at
task shortly after dusk last night,
reversing their recent procedure by
pouring down explosives first, then
fire bombs to light the wreckage and
spread the ruin. Normally they set
their fires first, then blast away by
the light of the flames.

LONDON, May 3.-Britain and

ably today to be easing pressure
on Fire for bases and to be con-
centrating on a new plan of
Streamlining conveys to win the
battle of the Atlantic.
An American source with good
opportunities for an objective pic
ture of the whole war situation de-
scribed the British position at the
moment as pretty grim"
You must remember" he said,
that these are proud people who
would be reluctant TO admit any
possibility of defeat even though it
were imminent when attempting to
assess the Importance of our help
in the battle of the Atlantic"
Quick Aid Urgently Needed.
Need for quick aid is so urgent,
he added, that even if the Irish
decided to turn over their bases the
machinery might be so cumbersome
they would be of little immediate
advantage.
Britains greatest need, he de-
clared. is swift institution of a sys-
tenn of organized conveys under
close cooperation of the British and
United States Navies.
