 NEW ENGLAND GOOD
Civilian Defense Officials Expressed Satisfaction
 at First Try-Out

Boston, May s. - (UP) = Civil ian Defense officials expressed gen. eral satisfaction today with the first New England coast dimout which was estimated to have de- creased "sky glow" about 50 per cent.
 Approximately 100000 civilian de- fense workers manned posts which extended three miles inland from the winding 1.5O0-mile coastline.
 Thousands of electric signs were extinguished as the area cooperated in attempting to prevent lights from shining seaward, thereby helping enemy submarines by silllouettine ships.
 At Boston. the usually brilliant theater district was a canyon oi shadows as marquees and store win dows were darkened under orders that also affected 3l communities within l2-mile radius of city hall
 The Army made no official com ment on results of the dimout, but civilian authorities believed 1t would operate more smoothly in Q short time. The Army plans to enforce a complete blackout if the dimoui Is not successful in eliminating "sk, glow"
 Motorists dimmed their lights on roads near the sea and cut theiI speed to IS miles. The lights that identified Revere and Nantaskei beaches from the sea were daTkened and in some amusements. colored lights replaced white ones.

 Made Out

Chairman Anthony Schiavone of Selective Service Board 16-B said today that many questlonnalreS be- ing returned to the board are i'm. properly filled out and he urged men receiving questionnaireS to fol- low the instructions carefully, or, If necessary, to ask the advisory board for assistance.

 Many of the questionnaires are being returned with questions un- answered. Others have answers which have no connection with the questions asked. There are many obvious errors in answer to Ques- tons on dependents.
 Should any registrant receiving 6 questionnaire wish assistance. MT. Schiavone sad, he should call the board at telephone 3-6174 and he will be referred to member of his advisory board.

 The Russian guerillas on one flank end the Jugoslavs on the othse have been nipping and slashing at the Nazis like hunting dogs bringing down a wild pig.
 And now Gen. Prapa Mihailo- vitch and his wild-fighting Chet- nix irreglarus appear ready to un- dertake e real offensive from their mountain strongholdS in Jugosla- via. For more than a year they have been thwarting the Germans, driving the Italians half whacky on the eastern shore of the Adrtattc, diverting much-needed Axis divi- sions from the vital Russian front BTG OFFENSIVE COULD

 A real offensive by Gen. Mil- hailovitch could seriously gum up Hitler and Co.'s schemes for a drive to the east, to Turkey and khe rich oil fields of Irak and Iran and on to c junction with the Japs ln India.

Soon after Q recent report from Stockholm that Milhailovitch had been captured, the exiled Jugo- slav government in London re- ceived assurance that the general was not only still at large, but that he was raiding German gar- risons less than 130 miles from the occupied capital Of Belgrade.

 The Germans mass executions in reprisal seem only to have strengthened the Jugoslav patri- ots' resistance. When Milhailo- witch learned that the Nazis had captured his wife and children, along with those of IA of his gen- erals, he sent this reply:
 T intend to carry out the fight against the Nazi oppressors until death, or until they are driven from the soil of JugoSlavia."
 This is the spirit that Hitler has to fear from all the conquered na- tions of Europe. And 1t is this spirit, translated into action, that can seriously interfere with his immediate plans. For the season of intensive fighting finds the trouble some Jugoslav army in 8 decidedly better position,
