 of States

Boston, July 25-CUP)-New Eng flanders prepared meals of lamb and pork products today as the local shortage of beef became more acute.
 Developments in the situation in- cluded:

 ?. State Purchasing Agent George J. Cronin asked Henderson for per- mission to buy beef for 47,O00 in mates and employees at state insti- tutions at above-ceiling prices and added that producing cows in state milk herds might be slaughter ed to help furnish beef for patients.
 3. Secretary Malcolm McCabe of the Massachusetts Retail Grocers' and Provision Dealers association asked the government to force ship ments of beef to New England im- mediately.
 4. New England wholesalers planned to meet with the OPA in Washington today to present plans for halting the shortage.

quarter inch board used, and pen- etration occurred in only one in- stance, to a very slight degree.
 CONCLUSION "(D A jet of water can be used to control magnesium incendiary bomb and the resulting fires in nearby combust!ble materials. No apparent danger existed for an unprotected operator, and even less. danger would exist when pro- tective devices, such as a shield or blanket. are employed. "(O This method requires very lit- tie time and water to accomplish the purpose.
 RECOMMENDED "O That the incendiary bomb be attacked with a solid jet of water. "(O That the operator stand more than eight feet away from the bomb.
 "(3) That instruction be continued in regard to removing inflamma- ble material from rooms and at- Ac spaces"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-07-25

Waterbury's air raid wardens will have to revise entirely their tech- ntque for fighting incendiary bombs. under new instructions issued by Nle once of Civilian Defense. Inc itead of spraying the bombs with water, as wardenS had drilled into them in the many training schools here. the wardens are now told to dght them with strong jets of water.
 James M. Landis, OCD director, taid that the change in technique resulted from experiments ard study by many experts and that 1t was already in effect in England. The change, he said, Is absolutely necessary.
 Said MT. Landis: '"The jet method is much the quicker and more ef- fective. We now know that it will save more lives and more property in the event of raid. That is the only sound criterion for judg- ing the matter"
 The several thousand wardens who took training courses here were
