try or Birmingham In the heaviest German raids of the war,
 "When the resistance factor for an industrial target is exceeded as it was in Cologne, the target is fln- ished or ineapacitated for Q long period, When it Is not exceeded the target will rebound and continue to function as at Coventry, Birming- ham and Loneon, The effect of con. tlnuouS bombing has been found to be much greater than that of desul- tory raids, This is due to the effect of secondary fires, Reorganization, wrecklng of repair equipment, trans port and communication systems.
 since every plant destroyed places an increasingly heavy strain on the remaining plants and Inter- ruptS their flow of materials, the cumulative effect is an important factor, This In turn is is stepped up by systematic destruction of key plants-power plants, blast furnaces, etc,--on which dozens of others are dependent,
 Effect on German Morale
 No account has been taken of the crack-up stage in German morale, inevitable in an air offen- sive of great magnitude In any con- sideratlon of this point ft must be borne in mind that

 Employment was found for 1s men, most of whom stayed at the Shelter until they received some pay and were abe to obtain room on the outside.
 Through the generosity of a friend in the city, the Lodge has acquired during August an ice box adequate for its needs.
 Major Wiberg is making plans to purchase ten more beds so that the capacity of the Lodge will be in- creased in time for the winter sea- son. At present there is accomo- dation for thirty men.

Polish Eagles Win
 Victory At Dieppe
POland's Avengers Distinguish Themselves in Recent
 Land, Air and Sea Attack

koscius2ko Squadron gave the fol- lowing impression of the fight.
 We had been above Dieppe about ten minutes when l noticed one of my pilots attacking German bonn Der, In less than minute, it burst into flames, At the same time two Focke-Wulffs passed me. l fell upon the last one at the same time warn ing the pilot who had just been shooting, that he was being attacked. Just then a whole group of Focke- Wulfs appeared. circled around looking downwards and decided which one I should attack.
 At the same moment something seemed to whisper to me to look around and make a sharp curve Scarcely had I pressed the accelera- tor when I heard the chatter of g machine gun behind me. I looked around and saw two Focke- -Wulfs not more than fifty yards away. l do not remember very well what l did then, but suddenly found my self among a group of Spitfires which had been fighting with the rest for the last twenty minutes at about 1000 feet below. After half an hour we received the order to with draw, so we set course for Great Britain leaving behind smoking Dieppe and few falling parachutes.
 T cannot pass over in silence the deed of one of our comrades who was severly wounded in the right hand and leg and decided to fly back across the Channel. He landed safely in England. That pilot flew about 70 miles, losing consciousness twice en route. On reaching the air. drome he succeeded in letting down the undsr-carriage of his plane, with the help of his good leg, and then landed. losing consciousness for the third time"

NEW PIPE LINE
 TEST UNDERWAY

Tests are being made by the city water department and by the en- gineering bureau of the new pipe line from Morris A temporary con nection with the Morris reservoir has been made for the tests.
 The line is to be connected with the new reservoir under construc- ton on the West branch when the latter project is completed. It will replace the present single line, that has been in operation for 47 years.
 The new line, when connected with the new reservoir. will make possible the elimination of pumping stations which are now needed to give sufficient pressure in some parts of the city.

 Bluff. hearty Rear Admiral Roobert c. Giffen commands the task force.
 Here again is a naval war vet- eran. Giffen went through the Navy mill, topped 1t of with a spe- cial course in strategy and tactics and was given command of the American unit.
 He is directly under command of the commander of the British Home Fleet.
 The presence of the American task force in Britain remained a close secret until early July and the nature of its operations still remains so.
 The ships have battled Axis planes in at least one action not yet officially detailed and one air. craft carrier has fought through to Maltese waters with relief planes.
 No specific area for their opera tions has been publicly announced, other than it covers generally Flu ropean waters"

London, Sept, 3.-poland's aveng. ing Eagles greatly distinguished themselves in the land, air and sea attack on Dieppe. Referring to the Polish fighter squadron's triumph during the combined operations, General Sikorski sent Q telegram of congratulations to the Commander of the Polish Wing. The Commander in Chief said: Sincere congratula- tons to the leaders and pilots of the Kosciuszko 30S Polish Squadron, and the Wilno Si7 Squadron, for de- stroying seventeen German planes. Such results confirm the martyred Polish people in their faith that victory will be obtained"
 How splendid was the performance of the Polish airmen Is clearly H. lustrated by the fact that the pro- portion of Polish victories to total victories was considerably higher than the proportion of Polish fighters to the total Allied air force in this action, whilst the proportion of Polish losses was considerably smaller. The famous 303 KoSciuszko Squadron shot down five Focks- Wulf 1908, two Junkers 88s and Heinkels, losing one Polish plane.

by night there ls no defense exc cept Co the extent 0e small losses now inflicted.
 .. Germany will find herself confronted by Q breakdown In food and living supplies and the swift destruction Of every source of offensive war weapons.
 2. Night shifts in plants throughout Germany must work In constant apprehension of shortly impending death or In. Jury, and In the knowledge that as nelghborlng plants are elim. mated their own chances of escape become progressively smaller.
 These facts orc well known t some of the worlds outstanding aii authorities, and these facts have led many experts to the same con cluslon: the crippling of Germany by Q concentrated air attack t practicable provided the air attack Is on Q great scale.
 Concentration
 No part of the results described in this analysis can be achieved without Q policy of concentration of e large part of our present bomb. ing strength and 0 refusal to await production still around the corner,
 "The question is not whether Germany can be defeated from the air. The question Is only whether the United states and Britain will elect to concentrate their maximum air strength against Germany thi' year,
 This question can be decided only by the United States and Brit' ish High Command, But they must decide 1t now. If they fail to make the right deeision-or, worse, If they fall in the power to make a deci' sion-they will be held terribly ac- countable at the bar of history"

New York, Sept. S.-Air bombing such co the worsd has never seen by 5000 United States and British homhers might well smash German war production thls winter "to Q degree that would render, inevitable tho defeat Of the German Armies" Time the weekly news magazine dee clares today.
 In Q special sour-page section titled. "The Real Bombing of 0er. many" the Editors of Time present the complete case for an all~out ar offensive at the earliest possible moment, passing their conclusions on months of research Into the probs lems of alrpower, production, avell- ability and performance at specific ranges.
 "Bomblng can mutllate oermanys might at home," they declare. Bombing for the present Is tho only way to strike the Germans at the sources of their power. Bombing on a grand scale Is the only way to strike 0 blow which will at least leave Germany crippled for the final blow to come,
 "The Allies have an opportunity they may never have again, German victory in Russia and the Middle East may soon release oermanyS main air fleets for the defense of the homeland or for assaults on the Allles' priceless air base in Britain.
 "On the basis of known fact, the opportunity Is here. Tn little while Germany may offset the advantage in air power which today lies with Britain and the U. g. An air often. sive that is too latemay have missed the one chance to prevent a final German victory in World War IT.
 Tt is of primary importance for public opinion to appreciate that U. s. airpower dispersed in all the present theaters of action will be indeeislve. But once concentration is achieved the speed of ultimate victory over Germany and Japan can be enormously increased"
 Sl Key Cities
 The Time study (made in colla- boration with Francis Vivian Drake) begins with an analysis of the ob. jectlves which must be destroyed.
 Essential to the functioning of the German war machine are 3i key cities (see map) and their sub. urbs," Time declares. "Those cities comprise the core of the German war production, They fall into three main groups:
 Tn the West: Essen, Cologne, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Stuttgart, Saarbrucken, Friedrich shafen; in Central Germany: Bremen, Hanover, Kassel, Nurem. berg, Augsburg, Munich, Rosenheim, samburg, Madgeburg, Dessau, Halle, Leipzig, Chemnitz, Pilsen, Linz; and in the ast: Kiel, Rostock, Stettin, Berlin, posen, Lodz, DiegnitE, Bres- lau.
