Fire Control
Exhibition
is Planned

The Macomb County Rural
Fire Control Committee has ar
ranged with the Agricultural
Engineering Extension Depart
ment at the College for a dem
onstration to be held on the
Macomb County Farm in Clinton
Township at 2 o'clock, Tuesday
afternoon, October 6. An old
shack will be filled with rubbish
and soaked down with gasoline
or fuel oil to make a good fire. A
high pressure orchard spray rig,
with a capacity of 20 to 80 gal
Ions per minute, will be used to
extinguish the fire.
There are more than 10000
spray rigs in Michigan and, as
most everyone knows, il is prac-
tically impossible to buy much
in the way of new equipment,
which makes important utiliza-
ton of the equipment now on
hand and to fit that equipment
into whatever local arrange
ments have been made in each
county for farm fire prevention.
The public is cordially invited
to attend.

officer told the French people

than ever before the possibilities
of a British and allied landing
on French soil must be fore
seen"
The offensive of the allied
nations is in the making" this
officer said.
AT the same time, the British
Ministry of Information branded
a German claim of having
sunk American troop transports
in the Atlantic as quite I'M
true" The Nazis asserted yes
terday that three large allied
transports, en- route from the
United States to England, had
been sunk by German U-boats.
So far, the Navy is credited
with never having lost a single
American troop transport from a
convoy in the Atlantic, either in
this war or the 1914-18 conflict.
While the battle of Stalingrad
blazed with undiminished fury,
the Soviet command announced
that Russian troops striking out
on the central Moscow front
had broken through German de-
lenses northwest of Rzhev, kill
ed about $500 Nazis and recap
tured Is villages in two days of
fighting.

in North Africa's skies.
The dress rehearsal-days of in
tensive training of American pilots

RAF squadrons-is over.
When the Americans go back into
combat. they will fly the newest
American pursuit planes, with their
own insignia, in complete United
States Air Force fighter squadrons.
USAAF bomber squadrons already
are in action.
The fruits of air battle, sweet and
bitter, were shared by the Americans
and their British and South African
mates in camps pitched together
for the final fighting training part

time we stumbled over two-inch
sharpened steel spikes which the
British had put there a long time
ago to prevent an enemy force from
advancing swiftly along the ravine.
We still did not dare put on our
shoes for fear of making too much
noise and our socks were in ribbons
and our feet bleeding. But we

morning and I handed the 20 men
over to Canadian officers.
Months later in India. I met a
young Eurasian friend who told me
what happened at the Repulse Bay
Hotel after we had left and the
Japanese came. He told me that
early the next morning Scotch
nurse walked out of the hotel with
white flag toward the Japanese.
Gallant Woman Of 10.
Il should like to say here that
she was probably the bravest, most
gallant woman I have ever known.
She was more than TO- gray haired,
and had been the nurse at the
hotel before the japanese came. It
IS impossible to give her full credit
for the heroic things she did during
the siege0
A japanese officer met her. She
told him there was not a single
combatant in the hotel and asked
that the women and children be
spared.
She honestly did not know about
81 officers and men who had been
lost in the hills and had crept into
the hotel during the night. When
the Japanese discovered these men,
they lined them up in back of the
hotel and machine gunned them.
The men, although they were armed,
did not put up any resistance be-
cause of the women and children.
