The Navy, our greatest concern at
the moment, Is the subject Of
books that are popular, technical,
statistical, comparative, historical,
analytical and prophetic. OF the
many popular ones appearing,
Fletcher Pratt, military expert Of
Time magazine. has written several
in lively. picturesque style. His
194l Fighting Ships Of the United
States Navy is largely made up OF
brightly colored sketches of our
warships and map of naval bases
important to American strategy.
For those who want facts I'M
sweetened and brief, there are
pamphlets such as Ships and
Aircraft Of the United States Fleet,
by James c. Fahey. associate. United
State Naval Institute, and Secretary
of the Navy Knox's United States
Navy in National Defense" For
the all-important comparison Of
world navies, three publications OF
traditional British thoroughness are
we'll known. "All the Worlds Fight
ing Fleets" and Naval Calendar, "
both edited by Eric Charles Talbot
Booth. and the famous James
Fighting Ships" These contain di-
agrams, charts, statistics. fleet or
ganization and even minor boats,
such as ice-breakers. trawlers, fish
ing protection ships and royal
yachts.
Paul Schubert brings us to 1912
in his Sea Power in Conflict" a
history of the naval engagements
of World War II down to Pearl
Harbor, telling also what modern
navies are. how they work and
the problems they face.
These and other books on ships
may be found in the Public Library,
Eighth and K streets NV. and its
branches. Most of the naval books
are in the war reading room of the
Central Library. which has much
other material of collateral interest.

Northbridge ReetoY
By Angela Thirkeu.

by Aifyetu lftHhett. Z n HUp!./
From generation to generation,
life in the sequestered village of
Northbridge. in the county of Bar
setshire. England, had run on with
scarcely a ripple of excitement or
change, largely because the good
folk of this quiet community stead
fastly had set themselves against in
novations.
Then came the war and with it
events which, in contrast to the
tumult in less remote parts of Eng
land. were trivial enough. but judged
by Northbridge standards were
epochal.
1t is this interesting scene of
transition that forms the framework
of Angela Thirkell's novel. Here
we have a story without much plot
but in tracing the reactions Of va
rious villagers, the author gives her
readers material that is amusing
and, at times, absorbing
Much attention centers around
Mrs Villars, wife of the compara-
lively new rector-a gentlewoman of

of literary aspirations, encounters
difficulties In protecting. as she be-
lieves, a young man rooming in her
home from the imaginary designs of
feminine neighbors
Mrs. Spender, wife of a colonel
billeted at the rectory for the dura-
ton, makes occasional turbulent
visits to her husband, which disrupt
affairs generally in the household.
Through all these trivialities, how
ever, the citizens of Northbridge be-
come grandly responsive to the war
spirit. Every heart beats in loyalty
to Britain in her hour of trial. And
here Mrs. Thirkell's novel reaches
the heights of inspiration. which is
none the less effective because she
tells much of her story with smile.

The Foe We Face
BU Pierre J. HuSS. fDOubI
Double

ddy, DOrQnJ
This book on the personality Of
Adolf Hitler adds little to the facts
about the Fuhrer which are now
generally accepted as true. Pierre
J. Huss was for number of years
Berlin correspondent for the Inter-
national News Service and twice
interviewed Hitler. He also had
opportunity to become acquainted
with many of the men who sur
round the dictator Goebbels. Goer-
ing, Won Ribbentrop, Hess, Boomer
and others.
His book is little more than a
recapitulation of the main points
of the popular portraits of each OF
these, set down with over-emphasis
and occasional vulgarity. Such old
news, for instance, as the slapping
of Goebbels by the movie actor,
Gustaf Froelich, is repeated here
in q positively confidential tone.
Mr.. Huss should have written his
book a long time ago, or written 1t
much better. NC. r.

R. A. F. Adds Bombers
With 8-Ton Capacity
To Raid Germany
Thousands of Pounds
Of Explosives Dropped
In Ruhr Attacks
By tht A ssociated Press.


LONDON. April 11-New four
motored Stirling bombers, capable OF
carrying 8 tons Of bombs, were being
added today to the British squadrons
whose continuing offensive against
industrial targets in Germany and
German occupied territory brought
fresh destruction to the Ruhr last
night.
Some thousands of tons of bombs"
were dropped on Germany during
four nights of raids by British planes
this week, the Air Ministry news
service said. The average was well
over a ton a minute" for the dura-
ton of the raids.
This was heavy bombing" 1t was
observed.
The R. A. r. bombing fleet is
growing week by week." aviation
sources said, Affirming again that
Britain's attacks from the air will
continue with increasing vigor until
the end of the war
Thirteen British planes were shot
down, oficial Air Ministry reports
said, from among the hundreds of
bombers which hit mainly last night
at Krupp armament factories in the
Ruhr. One Of the main targets was
reported to have been Essen, highly
industrialized and much bombed city
in Western Germany
The raid was described as "a good
show" although stormy weather over
the continent hindered the bombing
operations.
Other squadrons attacked the har-
Dor and shipping at lie Havre, in
German-occupied French territory,
and mines were laid in coastal
waters.
