Explosion Of Nazi
 Bombs Over Ireland
Continued from Page 1)

and 40 houses were blasted. Other bombs fell at Ballymurrin, 70 miles to the southwest.
 The identity of the planes has not been established but some of the bombs have been identified as of German origin. The London press frankly characterized the planes as German and expressed extreme skepticism that the attack was accidental. They doubted that German airmen on two successive nights had been guilty of naviga- tion so bad that it put them 100 to 15O miles away from any British targets.
 Making it appear even less likely that faulty navigation caused the bombing was the fact that neutral Fire has no blackout. Irish towns the lighted all night, in contrast to the blanket of darkness that Shrouds every town in Great Britain.
 The bombing occurred at 8 mo- ment when British interest in ob- taining Irish bases to counteract the German sea blockade was in- creasing and only few days after President Roosevelt in his f1reside chat expressed doubt that a German victory over Britain would permit the continued existence of an inde- pendent Fire.
 Ireland Gets FOretaste
 It was noted that the bombfngs gave Fire a mild foretaste of what might be expected should Britain obtain sea and air bases in her ter ritory and also might be calculated to divert British interest away from the continent where belief has been growing that a new NaN offensive is being prepared.
 Factors behind the re-shuffling of the Vichy government by Marshal Henri Philippe Petain were, as has become customary, shrouded in some obscurity.
 A brief announcement said that Paul Baudouin, minister of youth and propaganda, had resigned and that an inner triumvirate had been set up within the cabinet to function directly under Petain. The trium- virate is composed of Admiral Fran cois Darlan who has rapidly risen to the No. 2 post in the French government since the dismissal of Pierre Laval, Pierre Etienne Flandin who succeeded Laval as foreign minister and General Charles Hunt ziger, French ar1nistice commission CT and defense minister.
 Petain Is Anxious
 It has been known for some days that Petain was anxious to reorgan- ize the government and that this

DEWEY CAPTURES
 NEW RACKETEER

New York, Jan. 3-(UP)-District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey has bag ged a new racketeer who, he believes, is ''the biggest of them all"
 He is Jacob (Jack) Bernoff, 34, with prison record and 8 dozen aliases, partner in the late Larry Fay's milk racket and the imprison- ed Louis Gepke) Buchalter's gar- Iment racket. He was arrested on the street yesterday after long and in tensive search, and held under $50,- GOO bond as grand jury witness.
 His arrest marked revival of the investigation Dewey began in 1888 of the racketeering in the loose milk industry, in which tradesmen and truckmen were shaken down for mil lions.
