Peck Still TO Come
Officio!s Point Out
BY II. p. PORTER

BALTIMORE, May 8-(P)-
Four times more bomberS than
last year are inching their way
off production lines Of the Glenn
l.. Martin company and the peak
is still TO come, probably in
August.
The Output of bombing planes
for Britain and America in this
one plant is short many millions
annually in dollar value deliver
les, due principally 10 delays in
obtaining necessary aluminium
stocks, Glenn l.. Martin, presi-
dent, told correspondents on the
National Association of Manu-
facturers Production for Vic
tory" tours of war industries.
Martin said, "the vital aircraft
manufacturing industry still has
priority rating behind battle
ships, trucks and tanks.
1--WE need metal, we need in
struments, we need steel alloys
and other essential parts to turn
out bombers but in spite of these
deficiencies we have upped our
production four times within a
year and are on the way to peak
production in August"
The correspondents on this
tour saw long rows of finished
bombers outside the gigantic
hangers of the Martin plant,
awaiting delivery. They saw doz-
ems of additional planes moving
slowly forward on assembly
lines inside the plants. They saw
tens of thousands of workers
the number has been more than
doubled in the last six months
turning out parts for the three
types of two-engined bombers
which Martin produces.
These are the BIG, 13-ton
medium bombers for the United
States army, the PBM-3, nick
named the Mariner" a heavy
bombing flying boat for the
United States navy, and the 1877,
the Baltimore, medium
bomber for the British which
soon will be adapted for u. s.
army use.

many is pressing a futile aerial
offensive against Russia's far
northern rail and water COM
munications in an attempt TO
isolate the Soviet union from the
outside world, the army news
paper Red Star said today, and
a communique declared that 500
Nazis had been wiped out in the
northwest.
For six weeks, the newspaper
said, the reinforced German
northern squadrons had executed
repeated raids, but the effects
have been slight and "a enemy
planes have been destroyed or
damaged over Murmansk alone.
(The German communique
said Nazi and Finnish troops had
annihilated an encircled enemy
unit in Lapland after several
days of bitter fighting, killing
400. Other Russian forces were
reported smashed on the Muir
mansk front the official German
account said.) s.
Red Star said that IA raids
were carried out against five
German airports in the north last
month and that the bOnnbinps
were continuing. In the last two
days, 43 German planes were
estimated as destroyed in the
northern fighting alone.
The Nazi filters were reported
concentrating on railway lines,
bridges, stations and trains. They
usually fly in groups of 20 bomb
ers protected by low-flying fight
ers operating at between 600 TO
1900 feet.

PUYALLUP-Anticipating that
up-to-date cost Of production fig
ures on fruit and vegetable farms
in the Puyallup valley may influ-
ence a rise in ceiling prices Of
these commodities by the OPA.
heads Of farm organizations doing
business here met with field men
of the state extension service at
the Experiment station Friday
afternoon. County Agent A. NJ.
Richardson presided.
II was brought out that no accu-
rate survey OF the cost of raising
crops has been made for decade
but that the cost of labor and sup
plies have made a steady increase,
especially in the last year. Cell
ings, it is felt, are bound to be
drastic in 1913 and unless growers
can show this increase in cost OF
production they may find them
selves farming at a loss.
Farmers who will be asked to
cooperate with the extension serv-
ice men when they ask for pro-
duction figures include growers OF
beans. corn. spinach and peas in
the vegetable class and strawber-
ries. raspberries and blackberries
in small fruits. Each head of a
farm group will supply the names
and locations of a number Of
growers in his organization upon
whom calls will be made. 1t was
agreed that these growers will be
informed so that they may have
data ready. Following the survey,
growers will be called together for
final analysis of the findings.
Another meeting of interest to
farmers will be a discussion on
Neglected Cherry Orchards and
Berry Fields" to be held at the
Winter school building at the Ex-
pertinent station Wednesday, Nov.
Is. at 2 p. m. Compulsory control
of pests is to be considered. The
speaker will be F. E. DeSellem,
state supervisor of horticulture,
who will outline a program for
putting teeth in the present state
laws for pest eradication. Floyd
Chase will preside at the meeting.
