GERMANS REOPEN
 BOMBING ATTACKS
First Concentrated Raid on England Last Night;
 Coast Town Damaged

London, March 24-(UP) = Ger man airplane bombs crashed into tho homes of sleeping Britons In a southeast coast town during the night in the first concentrated air raid since the merciless attacks of last May.
 Homes and business premises crashed in ruins, with men, women and children buried under them, and throughout the night firemen and rescue squads were digging to get ct the imprisoned, some in shelters where they had taken refuge.
 There was no slgn that the raids meant the opening of Q big scale German aerial offensive. Rather, experts expressed belief that the Germans intended to remind the British people that they were not immune from aerial attack.
 A joint conmunique of the air and home ministries said:
 Tn the early part of last night enemy aircraft dropced bombs on e few coastal places In Southeastern and Southern England.
 "A small number of casualties was reported, some of which were fatal
 At one place, some damage was caused to Q number of houses but in no case was the extent of dam- age serious.
 "one enemy bomber was des- troyed."
 The Germans opened their attacks with pre-dark sweeps over two south coast towns, and q number over south and southeast coast villages.
 Four planes attacked one town through e hall of anti-aircraft and machine gun fire. These planes had the bad luck to fly over Q group of home guardsmen who, on inaneuvers, were testing explosives. The guards men fired and e bomber crashed in flames Q mile away, to the cheers of ollookers all over the country side.
 Scattered formations of German planes swept over other towns and villages in hit and run dive bomb- ing and machine gun attacks.
 British night fighter planes went up promptly and the battle of ma. chine gun fire was heard as they chased the Germans across the English Channel.
 Then the Germans opened their big attack, c concentrated one hour blast Of Q single town.
 Some of their big bombers roared in at low level to drop their bombs or to machine gun the streets. one stick of explosive bombs smashed into the business district. A bomb made c direct hit on, Q shelter con- tainiIlg many persons. Shops, c public house, Q club and many homes were hit as the bombs rained faster.

Saint John, N. B. - (UP) = Smoky Prescott, diminutiye shops stoker whose beTnedalled chest was proof to everyone but police that his life had been studded with heroic deeds in two wars, has disappeared into the obscurity from which he sprang. t
 Fifty-six.years and five-foot- four, Smoky arrived In Saint John wearing the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Distinguished Service Gross CAmerican), the insignia of the Purple Heart (AmericaIl), the Mons Star, the Victory Medal and the wings of a pilot in the Royal Air Force.
 A Two Gun Texan
 Despite this imposing array Of decorations Prescott was looking for job as ships stoker. Police heard about the chunky military hero seeking such commonplace employment. and decided to inves- tigate. They took Smoky to the station for questioning. He said he also travelled under the name or "Texas Bob" Cameron.
 Prescott recounted the saga of his adventurous life, proving" his statements with clippings from Nova Scotia newspapers, in which province his terolsm apparently had been accepted without question.
 one story likened him to "the lone star rangers of Texas. who shot first and talked afterwards" His exploits were told in vivid de- tail: shooting 1t out with bandits from the back of his galloping horse in defense of a huge sum Of money: winning Q "beauty and the beast" contest at Fort Worth, Texas, with Smoky as the beast and Mrs. Smoky as beauty; warning in Gen. tral America, Mexico, Ecuador, Bra- gil, China and France.
 Prescott claimed to be able to speak IS languages, but police had difficulty in coinprehending his avowed Texas drawl.

CURB ON DOUBLE
 PAY IS SOUGHT

Washington, March 24 --(UP)- War Production Chief Donald M Nelson declared today that if labor is unwilling to abandon double pay for war work on Saturdays, Sum days and holidays, he would ask Congress to act on the matter within the next 90 days.
 He told the House Naval Affairs committee that he was hopeful la- Dor would eliminate that manlfes- tat!on of business as usual" in tt.e next month.
 Nelson appeared ct hearings on the Smith Vingon bill which would suspend the 40-hour week, overtime pay, and the closed shop and would limit profits on war contracts to 6 per cent. He opposed all these sec- tions of the bill, warning that pro- duction might be retarded rather than stepped lip by the restrictions.
 A limit of c per cent on profits would increase the difEiculty Of con- verting small business to war pro- duction, Nelson said.

at the oecisive point. They have chosen no decisive point. Instead Of really hanging together, pooling part of their considerable forces-all-told flor action as such Q point in oi- der to beat the common enemy, each has concentrated on holding his own territroy-and each has hung desperately.
 POLITIC SPOIL
 BEST EFFORT
 There is bitterness in certain mil- itary circles here-American and Allied. Some feel that not only lias our help come too little and too late, but that there has been too much political direction of military opsr- ations against the one nation in the world-Japan--where the military are all-powerful.
 Today some say that the forces of the United Nations have been SO mishandled that we must now divert to the really secondary Far East forces much heavier than should be spared from the main theater, which is really Europe, for action against the maih enemy, who is Adolf Hitler. This Is serious, not only because 1t continues to violate strategic principles by dispersing our strength, but because that strength, in equipment and men fully trained, is not sufficient for innumerable expeditionary forces Result: still more frittering away oi planes and men in driblets.
 This vicious circle, if unchecked, might Strangle the United Nations and ourselves especially, like the coils of Laocoon.

Australia are bases for important offensive action" such as the American temperament craves. From them and from India, sea-alr attacks could converge upon the Japanese and their communications sprawled over thousands of square miles of ocean dotted with islands they have won in brilliant cam- paign rivaling Hitler's best, but whose booty they have not yet ex- pointed sufficiently to make them selves safe against blockade. To strike before they do so Is our best chance to end the Asian war before 1t becomes a struggle demanding of Us sacrifices and hardships rivaling those of our Civil War.

Fire and Fall Back
Tactics 10 Be Pursued
By U. ). in Pacific
Destructive Roids on
Isles Held Of Greater
Value Than Occupation
BY CLAUDE A. MAHONEY

The "fire and fall back" tactics by
which the United States Navy in
tends to spread its attacking force
over the gigantic expanse of the
Pacific Ocean was demonstrated
again in yesterdays reports of raids
on Wake Island and Marcus
Island.
Secretary Knox and other offi-
cials have said that the fleet is not
large enough to cover the Pacific,
and this fact has determined the
plans for hard-hitting raids on
strategic points. The raids reported
yesterday damaged and demolished
important aviation facilities and
radio installations, as we'll as sink
ing two patrol boats and Destroy
ing three large seaplanes.
Naval strategists consider 1t more
important to make such demolitions
and then withdraw than to attempt
to hold our isolated points in the
heart of the Japanese sea empire
Amateur strategists, smarting under
the capture of Wake, often have
asked why the Navy does not re-
take the island. The Nays reason
is that, while a recapture evidently
would have been easy on February
"a, when the last raid was made,
American occupation now would be
short-lived. The Japanese simply
would rush back from several di-
rectiOnS and make q second seige
Of Wake.
Raids Of Greater Value.
Like sending good money after
bad" was the way one naval source
described any attempt to reoccupy
Wake. The main and important
thing, this source explained. is to
dash in and destroy radio stations,
ramps and docks and all kinds Of
aviation facilities.
A bomb raid that destroys the
contours of an atoll and damages
the docks and seaplane docking
equipment within its inner harbor
Is worth far more than occupation,
it was pointed out. And, once bomb
ed and destroyed, the target is not
forgotten. but logged for future in
spection with a possible follow-up
raid.
we may have to 60 back to
Wake, or to Marcus. or to the Gill
bert and Marshall Islands some time
again." one expert said. The Japs
rebuild like ants
The raid on Marcus. almost un-
opposed, was interesting for more
than the results inflicted. 1t marked
the first time that surface ships

Of our Navy had pressed the fight

1t caused blackouts in Toxic, re-
ports said.
Vice Admiral William r. Halsey,
who commanded the raids on Wake
and Marcus, followed the pattern he
had set on the Gilbert and Marshall
attacks. It is expected to be re-
peated within reasonable time
on other islands, perhaps in the
mandate group.
Not until the fleet is expanded and
enlarged to the extent that it will
be able to make a clean sweep to
Toxic will widespread occupation be
undertaken, eperts say. But in the
meantime sporadic efforts will be
made to destroy the man-made at
tributes of many of the islands that
make them valuable to Japan's war
operations.
