his climb. AS he did so his plane
hit the pole, it snapped of and a
piece of it drove a third of the way

IT rocked a bit after the collision,

MOSCOW, Feb. 25.-Unending
German aerial assaults which last
October finally forced Russian
troops from Bryansk, railway CEN
ter 210 miles southwest of Moscow,
taught Soviet flyers a lesson in
offensive tactics they have since put
to good use. an air force general
wrote today in Red Star.
Premier Joseph Stain summoned
him November 26, 1941, ION the eve
of our offensive" to discuss how to
insure from the air break-through
north of Moscow. the general said.
do you remember Bryansk?" he
quoted Stain. I'VE must act the
same way. To rout the enemy we
must smite him necessarily day and
night in continuous waves without
giving him time to recover, destroy
ing his fortified bases and depriving
him of the possibility of bringing up
reserves. All your operations should
be effected in the colsest co-opera-
tion with land troops"
The writer said Soviet flyers ap-
piled the formula in series of raids
on German airdromes which caused
the destruction of SO invasion war

LONDON, Feb. 25.-Merchant
shipping losses of all nations from
the start of the war to January l,
1912, were estimated by the Chamber
of Shipping of the United Kingdom
today at approximately, 14,000, 900
tons.
Britain, her Allies and neutral ma
tions have lost 100000 tons, said
the chambers annual report, while
Germany and her allies have lost
mot less than five or six million
tons"
During the last six months of 1941,
the chamber added, Axis air raiders,
mines, submarines and surface YES
sells sunk about 10000 tons of ship
ping monitor a total of more
than 100000 tons for that period.
The report concluded that the
United Nations hold a great ad-
vantage over the Axis because of
the tremendous shipbuilding pro-
gram of the United States, which
produced some 1,000, 900 gross tons of
deadweight in 1941 and Is expected
to provide approximately 18,000, 900
tons of new shipping during the
next two years.
"On the debit side" the chamber
added, there is longer haul i'm
posed by the loss of safe passage
through the Mediterranean. This
has been estimated as 80 per cent

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-A young boy
friend confessed today, Coroner A.
l.. Brodie said, that he fatally shot
brown-haired Dorothy Broz, II, in
the balcony of the downtown Palase
Theater, a mystery that had been
more bafiling than the one being
shown on the screen.
Mr.. Brodie named the slayer as
Clarence Mcdonald, IT. of suburban
Berwyn. He was picked up after
police questioned a girl friend Of the
victim. She told investigators she
knew of a theater date Dorothy had
with Mcdonald.
Victim Identified.
The clue was obtained shortly
after the Identification of Dorothy's
body in the morgue, where it had
lain among the unknown dead for
almost IL hours after the shooting.
Identification was made by an uncle
who said Dorothy, also of Berwyn,
was the daughter of a real estate
man and that she had finished high
school this month.
Police had obtained only vague
description of the youth, who
stepped across Dorothy's body,
sprinted up an aisle and escaped in
the dark and confusion of the
theater.
Young Mcdonald directed officials
to a garage at his home in suburban
Berwyn where the coroner said he
had hidden the pistol with which
the girl was killed. Later Mcdonald
made a statement to the coroner
and Assistant States Attorney Les
lie Curtis.
No Argument With Girl.
I'VE seen the picture and I
kissed her and shot her-that's all"
the youth was quoted by Mr.. Brodie
as saying.
He added he had had no argu-
ment with the girl, but said that
he had been going with her "off
and on-not steady" for about two
years.
When. Prosecutor Curtis asked the
prisoner how the shooting hap
pened he replied:
Il don't know. 1t just happened"
Dorothy, he continued, had felt
the pistol in his pocket and had
pleaded with him to give it to her,
but he refused.
Walked Out Alley Door.
After the shooting young Nc
Donald said he ran to the upper
balcony. mixed with the crowd,
went to the first floor and then
walked out an alley door, later TAX
ing an elevated train home, where
he burned all of the photographs
of himself Subsequently he said he

picture in suburban Cicero.
Miss Elaine Mastney, II, senior
at the Morton High School and
friend of the victim, was named by
the officials as the girl who gave
them the information which led to
young McDonald's apprehension.
Several days ago, Miss Mastney
related. she saw Mcdonald point a
pistol at Dorothy. Miss Mastney
said Dorothy told her she was
afraid of the youth, quoting him
as saying:
IF I can't have you, nobody else
will"

April, May and June to 20 per cent
of the amount used for worsted cloth
during the comparable period last
year and 10 per cent Of the amount
used for woolens. The amount Of
carpet wool was reduced to 25 per
cent Of the amount used in the Sec
