 Allied headquarters, North Africa, Aug. 31-UP)-Allied planes shot down IT enemy aircraft of forma- tion of 75 that yesterday tried vain- iy to stop the offensive smashing railroads in the Naples area, it was announced today.
 The enemy planes met a forma- tion of marauders, escorted by lightnings that severely damaged the railroad yards at Aversa, 10 miles north of Naples, and followed them hundreds of miles over the sea in a wild dogfight.
 Ten of the enemy planes fell vic- tim to gunners aboard the marau- ders and seven to the fighter es- cort.
 The Allied bombing offensive de- signed to crush the communications and airfields through the Italian Peninsula included attacks on Vit- erbo and Civitavecchia, both north west of Rome.

 Altogether 21 enemy planes were shot down in the wide-ranging blows through last night while IS Allied aircraft-an unusually high

 Mrs. Annie Bulloch, the victims grandmother, disclosed that Corp. Ridings, a native of Warm Springs, Ga., served at the foundation as a physiotherapist from 1927 to 1881 and was "very popular" with MT. Roosevelt, then governor of New York State, when he visited the re- sort for treatments.
 He used to call her one of his best nurses and nicknamed her Husky because she was so strong" Mrs. Bulloch said.
 Meanwhile, Marion County Sheriff Roy B. Storm said Corp. Ridings' slayer slashed her wrists and throat to give the appearance of suicide after criminally assaulting her and killing her with blow on the head.
 Storm said an autopsy conducted at Fort Benjamin Harrison indicated that Corp. Ridings, found in downtown hotel room, was killed by blow from heavy instrument rather than by wounds inflicted with a broken whiskey bottle as at

 Allied Headquarters, Southwest Pacific, August 31. = (UP)-Allied ground forces have crushed strong Japanese counter-attacks only a mile outside Salamua and Libera- tors have deseroyed 37 to 49 more enemy planes at Wewak, com munique announced today.
 The Japanese struck across Mar shy lowlands at the Allied Ridge entrenchments on high ground run ming the entire length of the base of the peninsula just beyond the Sala- maua Airdrome.
 After two days of fighting, they fell back with the Allies in firmer control of the Salamaua approaches. Other American and Australian troops were moving up on the air. drome from the south and south west.
 Roaring back over the Newark area Sunday for the first time in five days, a strong force of Libert- tors escorted by Lightnings dropped IA tons of bombs on the Wewak and Boram airdromes, destroying at least 12 planes on the ground, and shot down 25, probably 12 more in air combats.
 Seventeen additional planes were damaged while Allied losses were described in the communique as light.
 At the same time strong forma- tion of two-engined Mitchells bombed and strafed the Madang area south of Wewak, dropping 55 tons of bombs, singing or damaging 21 barges and setting fires in sup ply dumps at AleXishafen Airfield, Amron Mission and Bogadjim.

United Press tsaff Correspondent

United Press tSaff Correspondent
 Washington, Aug. 31. (UP)-An agriculture department survey re- vealed today that the index Of prices received by farmers for their products has reached the highest point since September, 1920, and that the effort to "hold-the-line" on food prices has not been com- pletely successful.
 Sharp increases between July IS and August IS in prices for dairy products, grains. chickens, eggs, cot ton and cottonseed raised the gen. eral level of farm product prices five points, more than offsetting the decline in the preceding month. It was 30 points higher than a year ago.
 At the same time prices paid by farmers for commodities, interest and taxes failed to advance-the first time since August, 1922. The prices paid index for mid-August, was 169 per cent of the 1910-14 average-16 points higher than the August, 1922, level.
 A Survey Shows
 The survey, made by the agricul- ture departments bureau of agri- cultural economics, also revealed that:
 1. The general supply situation for farm products is slightly less favorable than a month ago be- cause of the decline in egg and milk output. but "still looks far better than average"
 2. Domestic demand for farm products continues strong. Increased

 Washington, Aug. 31 UP) - President Roosevelt was expected today to join Secretary of State Cor dell Hull in 8 vigorous defense of State Department policy and at the same time announce the resignation of Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles. e...
 There was also likelihood that at his presS and radio conference (4 D. m., ETT.)--his first since the Quebec conference might add to Hull's denunciation of newspaper columnist Drew Pearson who has accused Hull and other State De- partment officials of hoping that the Soviet Union will be "bled White."
 Hull denounced Pearson in a formal statement yesterday, assert ing that the charges were mon strous and diabolical falsehoods."
 Pearson answered immediately with the hope that Hull's denial of my charge that he is anti-Russian will stand up better than his recent denial that Sumner Welles would resign" Then last night he issued a supplementary statement assert ing that Hull had failed to explain why the Italian armistic terms pre- pared by the United States and Bri- tain when Marshal Pietro Badoglio

By WALTER CRONKITE

(Un1ted Press Stan COrreSpOndent)
 London, Aug. 31-CUP)-American medium bombers, following up a smashing British night attack on the Rhineland, raided German airdrome and a power station in northern France today.
 Britain's heavy bombers dropped more than 1,500 tons of explosives last night on the twin industrial and railroad centers of Munchen- Gladbach and Rheydt in western Germany, and brought the RATS bomb tonnage for August to 15,000- 1000 tons less than the July record.
 B-26 Marauders of the Eight U. s. Air Force swept over France in day. light and attacked an air field at Lille Vaudeville and a chemical works and power station at Mazin- garbe. The twin-engined bombers were supported by British, Allied and Dominion Spitfires. First re- ports showed that three German fighters had been destroyed against a loss of one bomber and one fighter on the Allied side.
 33rd Such Raid
 The Marauder raid was the 33rd such operation in 43 days against air fields and other targets in France and the Low Countries by the Eighth Air Support command. Some of the operations. s'c'' as to- days, have involved multiple tar- gets and the number of separave missions totals more than 50.
 About 900 tons of bombs have been dropped in these missions and large numbers of enemy planes have been destroyed on the ground and in the air. American losses have been light.
 Following through in daylight, wave after wave of other British bombers swept out across the south- east coast today and disappeared over the continent. Allied planes also were over northwest France.
 28 BOmbers Lost
 Twenty bombers were lost in the assault on Munchen- Gladbach and Rheydt and in a subsidiary mosquito bomber attack on Buis- burg, a few miles to the northeast.
 A crushing weight of bombs rang ing upwards to four-ton super block busters were dropped on tool-making
