! ISTANBUL, Turkey. June 18
(Delayed).-A Bucharest resident
who saw United States bombers
over the Rumanian capital In
broad daylight said todayit was
reported in Bucharest that they
had raided Constanta, Run1ania s
chief Black Sea port, as well as
the oil center Of Ploesti.
The raids were made last week.
Four Of the planes later landed in
Turkey.
The witness, who left Bucharest
a few days ago, said the American
planes arrived over Bucharest
shortly after an alert was sounded
at 4:30 am. Friday. He said he
did not know their number, but
believed there were only a few.
Heavy anti-aircraft fire greeted
them, and pursuit planes took to
the air.
No bombs fell in Bucharest, but
1t was reported that day that both
Constanta and Ploesti had been
hit. he said.
Information in Bucharest. the
witness said. was that bombs
dropped at Ploesti. north Of Bucha-
rest, did little damage except to a
siphon plant and that the refineries
escaped damage.
There were no reports that the oil
fields themselves were bombed and
he had no details on the raid at
Constanta.
Rumanians were astounded by the
appearance OF the American planes
over Bucharest. he added, and many
ran for shelter. Excitement was
especially high among the Germans
living at the Athene Palace Hotel
Bucharest's alert lasted two hours.

Drastic Cut Forecast
By 0PA Officials in
Varieties Of Sweets
Croker BorreIs Nay
Replace Wax Wrapping,
Cofemen, Bakers Learn

Varieties and brands of sweet
goods and cakes may have. to be
curtailed. wax paper packages with
beautiful printing jobs" may be
drastically reduced. and even the old
cracker barrel may come back,
according to predictions made last
night by James P. Delafield Of the
Office of Price Administration.
Speaking also before a joint meet
ing of the Washington Restaurant
Association and the Washington
Retail Bakers Association, DR.. Archie
M. Palmer, of the Food Section,
OPA, warned that unless shipments
of of -shore" sugar increase, fur
ther restrictions on that commodity
may become necessary.
The two OPA experts explained
maximum price regulations, and
sugar rationing to members of the
associations and their guests in the
auditorium of the United States
Chamber of Commerce.
Relief for Restaurants.
Detailing amendments announced
yesterday by OPA on sugar ration
ing, DR.. Palmer predicted that with
In "a hours, further regulations
would be announced setting forth
how commercial users of sugar could
apply for relief when their business
in the serving of meals has greatly
increased. Restaurant men and
women in the audience were prom
ised the full plan would be available
soon.
The sugar situation generally,
however, DR.. Palmer warned, was
not so good because of the shortage
Of shipping space to bring in sugar
from outside the continental United
States.
America may have to go back to
the cracker barrel. Mr.. Delafield
thought, but predicted the country
would advance just the same.
There was a time" he said,
when foods were not packed in
tins, when bread had no beautiful
wrappers. when crackers were
packed in barrels, and our Nation
went on. Our sincere hope is that
these customs will not return. but
If the war brings them back we
will still march on"
Must Check Waste.
"The OPA expects business at all
stages to make all possible operating
economies, and to eliminate all
waste" declared Mr.. Delafield, dis
cussing how the "home front" can
help win the war This means that
such deliveries as you make must
be rationalized, packing simplified
and all other costs cut, to the
greatest extent possible. Varieties
in breads, sweet goods and cakes
probably will have to be reduced
considerably to effect savings. Be-
cause of the critical shortages in
steel. slicing may have to be dis
continued. This is justified be-
cause the Nation faces a II per
cent cut in its standard Of living.
Thus it Is of the utmost Importance
that some form of reduction take
place in unnecessary services.
You have seen sugar rationed,
tires and gasoline rationed," he con-

tinued. Quite possibly more re-
strictions may be necessary in other
fields" Reduced use of waxed paper
and beautiful printing jobs on
packages may be necessary because
the plates and even colors used in
the printing are made of critical
materials.
Other Measures Needed.
"As businessmen" he said. you
must help create management
system surprising the job done by
the Axis forces" Pointing out that
President Roosevelt in a speech to
Congress clearly recognized that
overall price control was only one
step toward checking imitation, Mr..
Delafield said his sincere hope was
that OPA would not be expected to
administer price control without
support of other economic measures
suggested by the Chief Executive.
Dr.. Palmer commended the serv-
ices of Comdr. George r. LIE Savage,
chairman of the National Restau-
rant Association War Committee.
and of Robert j. Wilson. executive
secretary of the Washington Restau-
rant Association, who is field secre-
tary for the National Restaurant
Association.
The meeting closed with a ques-
tion-and-answer period on ceiling
prices and sugar rationing.
S. Grady Putnam, president of
the restaurant association, and
George Furzer, president of the re-
tail bakers, took turns in presiding.
