last year were 70 billions, and were

It was believed certain, in view of
the statements of General MacAr-

and supplies were on the way from
the United States. If so, this was
further evidence of the turning of

Gen. Jonathan Wainwright, pick

left off, was continuing the Bataan
campaign, and Corregidor had with
stood the heaviest bombing attacks
Of the war.
The guns of Corregidor and her
sister fortresses had hammered
away at flights Of Jap bombers,
dropping four one day, two the next,
with others probably downed or
damaged"
President Quezon, on his arrival
with his family and cabinet in Aus

of Wainwright's men soon would re.
ceive it's reward, and that relief
for the Philippine garrison would
''not be long in coming
The Filipino president had been

had never left MacArthur's head
quarters, and had flown to Australia
to take his stand there again.

BULCARS:
Reported on Move

The Bulgarian army had been re-
ported on the move to the German
eastern front, the government hav-
ing acceded to the Nazi demands
that it furnish troops for the often
sive against Russia.
But the move, highly disturbing to
Turkey as well as to the bulk of the
Bulgar people, was not without
sharp criticism from within, almost
amounting to revolution.
An anti-war movement had been
gaining in popularity, and when two
divisions were withdrawn from the
Turkish frontier, repeatedly to move
against Russia, one radio station
kept broadcasting an appeal to tie
people to rise and emulate brave
Jugoslavia." It called for the throw
ing out of King Boris, who was de-
scribed as "only a German pawn, I"

OFFENSIVE:
Of Ndzis Underway

The oft-repeated question where
will Hitler's spring offensive strike"
had been sufficiently answered by
dispatches from Moscow.
Activity was definitely on the lull
in North Africa.
Activity across the channel was
largely from England to Germany,
with the Nazis on the defensive.
But on the Russian front, both at
Murmansk and all along the whole
2,000-mile line, the Reds themselves
were admitting widely increased
German activity.
The Bulgarian movement was con-
firnation Of earlier reports that Hit
Ter had demanded 100000 troops
from Hungary, Rumania, Italy and
Bulgaria for the offensive.
The Moscow cables showed that
these men were going into action.
In the Staraya Russo trap, the Six
teenth army had been trying des-
perately to break through.
One Russian dispatch gave the
tip-off. It said 1.-THE Germans are
trying with everything they have
to take the offensive away from the
Russians, but despite that, the ini-
tiative definitely remains with us.

COMMANDOS:
Hit Daring BIow

Britain's commands, after a lull
Of several weeks during which they
doubtless had been cooking an
other raid, had descended in full
power on the German-held port of
st. Nazaire, important submarine
and naval base, with dire results.
Chief objective, outside of general
demolition work around the port,
had been the destruction of huge
dock, the only one on the European
Atlantic coast capable of handling
the 35,000-ton German battleship
Won Tirpitz.
The commands had attacked st.
Nazaire under cover of an aerial
bombing raid, using paratroops, de-
stroyers, and motor torpedo boats.
The Nazis denied all efficacy of the
raid, but the British just as positive
ly declared it to have been huge
success.
Chief item and most daring in the
raid was the use Of an average U. S.
destroyer as swiftly moving bomb
to ram the dock. The destroyer had
been loaded with five tons of high
explosive in its bow, fixed with a
time fuse to permit the crew to get
ashore and fight while the ship blew
up.
British sources had reported that
this was just what happened. The
vessel rammed the dock and stuck
there, later to blow up and put the
structure out of commission.
The Germans said, however, that
their coastal defense batteries struck
the destroyer and caused her to blow
up before reaching her objective.
The Germans, however, admitted
that many of the raiders got ashore,
but claimed they were all killed or
captured. The British said there
'were some casualties" but that the
detectives were carried out, and
that many members of the raiding
forces returned in safety to England.
It was all part of the British spring
offensive, which included practically

INDIA:
Crossroads

While there had been no inmedi-
ate indication that the Japs were to
make India the supreme objective,
and abandon any idea of an immedi-
ate invasion of Australia, the situa-
ton in Burma was serious enough to
give poignancy to the visit of
Sir Stafford Cripps and his offer of
dominion status to India after the
war.
The sharp division of opinion in
India placed three men and their
followers in the forefront of the pic
ture, Gandhi, Nehru and Jinnah.
Gandhi, the Mahatma, leader of
more Hindus than any other man,
had been the first to confer with
Grips, and a two-hour conference
had found the two men willing to
admit that the basis of negotiations
was satisfactory
But the handling of Nehru and jim
