LONDON, July 17-(P-De-
vastating as it has been in spots,
Britains air offensive against
Germany still is short of ex-
pectations and still below the
peak of striking power it must
and will-develop to become
a decisive factor, air experts
said today.
The appraisal of these sources,
who would not permit their
names to be used, is based on the
AZ nights since the Raj, opened
the Allies second front in the air
with the mass attack on Cologne
last May 80, the first of three l.
000-plane raids on Germany.
CITY BY CITY"
Associated Press tabulations
show that beginning with the
Cologne raid the Raj has made
about $3.50 bomber-trips against
Germany in fulfillment of Prime
Minister Churchill's promise to
erase Nazi industry city by
CITY,"
Only two raids with a thous-
and or more bombers-against
Emden and Bremen-have been
made since the Cologne assault
but British air sources say they
left those cities so devastated
that they can make little, if any,
further contribution to Ger
many's war effort.
The air offensive, made at an
announced cost of 261 bomberS
up to last night, is regarded by
informed British sources, how
ever, as below expectations.
WAIT TILL AUTUMN
They said they believed the
high hopes raised when the mass
bombing of Cologne thrilled the
United Nations appeared prema-
ture and "really intensive" at
tacks on industry in central and
eastern Germany must wait for
the longer nights of autumn.
These experts agreed that
three reasons explain the Raj S
failure to keep up the thousand
plane pace:
/. Exceptionally bad weather
air officers say the night S
must be pretty nearly perfect
or else targets are obscured and
fog imperils the RATS huge
bombers taking off and landing
on home airfields.
2. Drain on the Raj bomber
command by operations else
where-the campaign in Egypt,
the threat TO India. These are
said to have diverted heavy
bombers earmarked last winter
for this summers raids on Ger
many.
3. Failure of the Allied Air
forces to produce a long-range
fighter capable of escortlng
heavy bombers over targets IN
daylight attacks.
NO RELIEF FOR REDS
Thus, it was asserted, the
RATS scale apparently does not
yet mean relief for Russia.
Soviet sources here appreciate
the immense damage British
bombers have dealt to German
war plants but, in the opinion OF
one:
"Only British and American
soldiers fighting on the contin-
ent of Europe under the protec-
ton of their bomber and fighter
fleets will divert German
troops from the Eastern Front
An Raj commentator describ-
ed two prime aims of Britain S
bomber blows as:
l. The destruction of all in
dustry supplying Nazi armies on
the Russian Front;
2. The curtailment of the Ma
ri submarine menace in Ameri-
can waters by smashing the u
boats in construction and at home
bases.
Toward these ends, the Ruhr
area which FORCES much of Ger
many's armament, has been hit
five times since June l-once
with l,036 bombers.

CROP INSURANCE
IS IN EFFECT

Federal all-risk crop insur-
ance covering 276,596 acres of
Montana wheat land is in ef-
feet for 1912 according to in
formation received today by
George Miller, chairman of the
Big Horn county Triple-A COM
mittee.
For 1941, 3,012 Montana wheat
farmers were insured for 1,979,-
452 bushels production on $685.
1878 acres. This year, however,
1856 farmers are taking advan-
tage of federal crop insurance,
a phase of the national farm
program designed to secure a
tair share of the national in
come for the American farmer.
These farmers this year are in
Sured for a total production OF
2,370,414 bushels on 1886
acres.
Through federal all-risk crop
insurance these Montana farm
ers are assured they will have
wheat to sell this fall regardless
of hail, drouth or other natural
causes. The farmer with insur-
ance is certain of at least rs
per cent of a normal crop. In
case of crop failure the farmer
can secure a commodity loan at
IS per cent of parity on his
indemnity wheat the same as
if he actually produced a crop.
If the farmer desires, however,
he may convert his idemnity
wheat into a cash settlement.
Through federal crop insur-
ance the farmer is assured OF
financial stability" Miller says.
Financial stability. now more
than ever before, is important
and necessary in order to pro-
duce food to win the war. The
farmer who has a guaranteed
income is assured of the money
he needs to continue his farm
ing operations to do his part in
the Food for Freedom program
Crop insurance is now available
on the 1943 wheat crop. Con-
tracts may be signed at the
local county AAA office, chair
man Miller states, and further
information may be secured
from any county or community
AAA committeeman.

AND
RUBBER SALVAGE

The office of defense trans
portation established a u. S.
truck conservation corps to mo-
billie the country'S 5000, 900
trucks for more efficient wal
service. The office said CONVEX
sion of the trucking industry tc
a wartime basis is effecting a
big saving of rubber and equip
ment, despite a sharp increase
in the volume of business. Rail
roads in 1941 set an all-time
record of ton-miles of freight
carried and increased circulation
of freight cars by 80 per cent
over 1929. Passenger service of
both railroads and buses is
about so per cent greater this
year than last, Mr.. Eastman
said. He requested discontin-
uance for the duration of all
county and state fairs in order
to conserve transport facilities.
President Roosevelt extended

bag sheetings. However, most of
this increase is going to I'LL
war ORDERS" Miller said.
Farmers can take the first
step in bag conservation by TAX
ing stock Of the bags they have
on hand and sorting them out
by size, type and condition and
storing them where they will
be dry and safe from damage
by mice. Bags which are only
slightly damaged can be re-
paired for grain handling while
those which can't be repaired
for this use will do for pota-
toes and similar commodities.
Farmers and city people alike
should collect bags which they
don't need and see that they
are returned to trade channels:
If every available burlap bag
is used this year, the shortage
will be partially alleviated." ne
concluded.

Urges Saving Of
All Sdcks-Buqs

Big Horn County farmers,
farm organizations, grain, feed
and seed dealers we're asked
this week by George Miller,
chairman of the Big Horn coun-
ty USDA war board, to aid in
the nationwide bag conserva-
ton program launched recent
ly by the department of agri-
culture.
Every farmer and dealer in
this county has an important
part to take in conservation of
burlap and cotton bags needed
for packaging agricultural COM
modities this year." Miller said.
There is a shortage of bags
now but if we take care OF
those we have and keep them in
use we will be doing much to
offset the shortage and a great
deal to prevent it from becom-
ing extremely serious"
Ordinarily about 80 per cent
of the total importation of bur-
lap is used in the manufacture
of bags for agricultural COM
modities, Miller explained, the
1939-40 average for this use be-
ing 459 million yards. The Uni
ted States is entirely dependent
upon burlap imports for its
needs, and as these are almost
exclusively from India, present
imports are negligible. Military
needs have greatly increased the
need for burlap at the same
time that the available supply
IS decreasing.
wartime expansion of agri-
culture means that approx
mately two billion bags will be
needed for packaging farm
commodities in 1912. This is
roughly 500 million more bgas
than would be used under nor
NAL conditions. Much conSidera-
ton has been given to produc-
ton of bags from our cotton
supply and a recent WPB con-
version order about doubled
